Imagine being able to test drive a luxury motorcoach/RV for a few days in a no-sales, no pressure, comfortable environment with access to a professional expert who can answer questions, show you how to maneuver the vehicle in tricky spots, share tips for maintaining it and let you experience traveling it in, all while enjoying a fun, mini vacation.
That’s the concept behind LiTRV’s “Rent Before You Buy” service which allows you to charter a luxury motorcoach for a few days or more, travel in it with family or friends to a destination of your choice, and most importantly, learn from LiTRV’s professional driver throughout your journey so when you shop around for a luxury motorcoach after your trip, you are better prepared to make an informed purchasing decision.
While LiTRV is best known for curating customized vacations and one-way trips in luxury motorcoach rentals, this unique service is open to anyone who is interested in purchasing a luxury motorcoach. There’s no sales pressure as LiTRV does not represent any manufacturers or dealers.
Learn the Ins & Outs of a Luxury Motorcoach with a Professional Driver
Whether you have owned and driven standard RVs for many years and you are ready to upgrade to a Class A luxury motorcoach, or you are new to traveling in a luxury motorcoach, having access to a professional driver during this ultimate test drive is invaluable.
Our professional drivers have decades of experience driving RVs and other large vehicles throughout the country. They can help you learn how to navigate twists and turns on mountain roads and adjust to diverse weather conditions. When you rent a luxury motorcoach through LiTRV, our professional drivers will also help orient you to the on-board systems and guide you through scenarios you may or may not have considered, such as:
- Loading up the motorcoach at your home prior to your trip.
- Getting in and out of a gas station.
- Backing into a spot and checking first to determine where the utility box is or how much room you need to leave to open your slider.
- Setting up at a luxury RV resort, including how to find your premier site, how to level the motorcoach on the ground, how to hook up water, the TV and other details.
- Checking apps to determine weather, construction, and traffic conditions.
How Will You Use Your Luxury Motorcoach?
If you are serious about purchasing a luxury motorcoach, one of the first questions you should ask yourself relates to how you intend to use it. Do you want to live and work in it, like a digital nomad, or will it be used for leisure travel? And who will be traveling with you?
One interesting trend relates to young adults and RV ownership. According to a 2024 contributed article in Forbes, there is a “Millennial migration towards mobile living.” The article cites an RV Industry Association report showing a staggering 62% increase in RV ownership among young adults in the last decade.” The author says, “The average RV owner today is not planning retirement; at 32 years old , they are more likely planning their next “workation” spot.”
The author goes on to explain that “this trend is less about the vehicle and more about what it represents—freedom, flexibility and an unbridled spirit of adventure. More millennials are choosing to ‘put their equity on wheels.’”
Many retirees and empty nesters also choose to purchase a luxury motorcoach for their own personal reasons. Some enjoy the flexibility of traveling throughout the U.S. and Canada to explore national parks or visit family, grandkids and friends. Others like to “winter” in a warmer climate for several months.
Count on LiTRV to Guide You Through Your Options
Just like a luxury car, a luxury motorcoach comes in a variety of sizes and configurations. Our LiTRV team has more than a decade of experience renting a wide variety of luxury motorcoaches to hundreds of guests, and we have seen and experienced traveling in almost every type of configuration.
LiTRV is not affiliated with any manufacturer, but we have great relationships with most of them. You can count on our LiTRV professional driver to give you the “tools” or information you need to help you make the best educated purchasing decision.
Throughout your journey, our driver may point out things to consider, such as:
-
- What is the best layout for you and your family?
- Do you want or need two or four slides?
- Does it make sense to have bunk beds?
- Do you want an electric fireplace and/or floor heating?
- Do you want the washer and dryer mid-cabin or in the back of the coach?
- How important is it to have an outside kitchen or entertainment center?
LiTRV Curates a Customized Shared Experience
One of the best ways to experience traveling and living in a luxury motorcoach is to invite family and friends to join you on your mini vacation. Not only does their comfort matter, but they may also contribute valuable opinions regarding features on board or outside of the motorcoach.
Our LiTRV team provides customized, concierge services, so we’re here to support you throughout the entire trip. Even before we source a motorcoach for your rental experience, we’ll ask you about your lifestyle and assess your needs for the trip. We can also help you plan your itinerary and reserve a premier site at a luxury RV resort. When there’s an overnight stop, we arrange for our private driver to stay nearby so you can enjoy your privacy.
Education That is Worth the Investment
No one ever wants to have buyer’s remorse. Sadly, we have seen too many people rush into a purchasing decision, sometimes paying $400,000 to over $1 million for a luxury motorcoach, only to realize it didn’t have enough beds, or it was too difficult to drive, or it simply wasn’t a good fit for them.
Rental of a coach for a weekend or week could cost between $10,000 and $20,000; however, this cost pales in comparison to the loss you might experience if you purchase a new luxury motorcoach and it is not the right fit.
If you are in the market to purchase a luxury motorcoach, consider renting one through LiTRV first so you can be confident that you will make an educated, informed decision. Give us a call at 800-369-8153, email us info@litrv.com or click on the “Get a Quote” button at the bottom of our home page.
