Camping is about 'family vacation' not communing with nature...for that you bring a tent, lets be real. RVing is an American Institution.....Grand Canyon trips..Remember watching the Brady's at the Grand Canyon....Nat'l Lampoons Vacation..."I'm going to have fun and your'e going to have fun...we're all going to have so much bleeping fun we're going to need plastic surgery to remove our bleeping smiles!!!" This is what its all about people! stress, the annoying humm of air conditioners, $$$gas, teenage angst. Exploring America right here at home. I'm naming our pop up "Holiday Road" and putting "Sparky" on the back in honor of this great American Family institution. I am freaking Chevy Chase and my sons will tell you. "We're going camping and we're going to act like we like each other!" Avenger, Rampage, Ambassador???? LOL At least people with boats have wit and humor. Lifes too short to be so serious. boring…..boring, boring.

Each night we got to listen to generators rumbling and satellite TVs blaring (in addition to the outside RV lights shining into our tent). Each morning we awoke to families whose only means of communication was screaming (and they weren't angry). We moved to a different campground on each of our three nights (no small task, since weren't in a home on wheels), and it was just as horrible at each place. RV'ers in small campgrounds (especially campgrounds that don't have flush toilets and showers) are a different story. All who wander off the beaten path are truly there for the peacefulness and quiet, whether they arrive on foot or by RV or something in between. It's sad that the national parks have become huge parking lots. (And, to be fair, I've camped in a walk-in campsite with the most obnoxious group of river guides you'd never want to meet or have guide you down a river while hung over!)

From my extensive experiences camping in our beautiful national park system, far too many RV'ers have no intention of communing with Mother Earth. They want to know how far it is to drive to the __________ (fill in remote, breathtakingly beautiful, natural phenomenon here), then reply with a disgusted look of horror when told one can only get there by foot. So, I agree with AKC and feel the names are appropriate. "Marauder" would be a good one. Now that I'm done ranting, I have also met some truly amazing people who are out to get closer to nature while living in an RV. They restore my faith in humankind, but there aren't enough of them to make me ever want to go to a national park in the summer again! “recreational vehicles are supposed to enable people to get out and enjoy the peace and quite of nature and commune closer with our mother earth”

I suspect most names for motor vehicles, regardless what kind they are, might already be taken. And, yes, I get annoyed by them, too. Hey…they have to come up with some name, don’t they?
