<div>“The Earth is what we all have in common.” Beautiful words written by American novelist and poet Wendell Berry who, like many people all over the world, is an environmental enthusiast. You know who else shares the same love for nature? You guessed it, RVers. Some of the most exciting adventures and memorable vacations for Americans have happened at National Parks, State Parks, Beaches, Islands and Mountains to name a few. The Earth is fascinating and almost everyone who loves the outdoors has a desire to explore by camping, hiking, bike riding, paddle boarding and rving. This is why in celebration of Earth Day; we’re sharing ways you can be earth friendly when rving.</div><div><br></div><h1>About Earth Day</h1><div><br></div><div>The first Earth Day was celebrated on April 22, 1970, to raise awareness about our planet and what we can all do to take better care of it.

In order to continue having such wonderful experiences, our ecosystems need to thrive and the best way they can do that is if they’re protected and left unbothered. This is partly why the <a href="https://www.nps.gov/articles/leave-no-trace-seven-principles.htm">Leave No Trace Seven Principles</a> was created by The Leave No Trace Center for Ethics in 1999, built on the work of the US Forest Service, the National Park Service and the Bureau of Land Management. The seven principles serve as a guide for “backcountry” users to be environmentally conscious when participating in recreational activities including <a href="http://mangorv.com">rving</a>. More specifically for visitors of natural sites to be conscious and mindful when coming in contact with plants, wildlife, people, trails and bodies of water.

Altering a site is not necessary.<ul><li>In popular areas:</li><li>Concentrate use on existing trails and campsites.</li><li>Walk single file in the middle of the trail, even when wet or muddy.</li><li>Keep campsites small. Focus activity in areas where vegetation is absent.</li><li>In pristine areas:</li><li>Disperse use to prevent the creation of campsites and trails.</li><li>Avoid places where impacts are just beginning.</li></ul></li></ul><div><br>Dispose of waste properly.<br><br></div><ul><li>Pack it in, pack it out. Inspect your campsite, food preparation areas, and rest areas for trash or spilled foods. Pack out all trash, leftover food and litter.</li><li>Utilize toilet facilities whenever possible. Otherwise, deposit solid human waste in catholes dug 6 to 8 inches deep, at least 200 feet from water, camp and trails.

Use a lightweight stove for cooking and enjoy a candle lantern for light.</li><li>Where fires are permitted, use established fire rings, fire pans, or mound fires.</li><li>Keep fires small.

<div>January Newsletter from MangoRV</div>

<div><em>Class A RV in Booklet, Georgia. Photo by Damon on Road.<br></em><br></div><div>&nbsp;<br>Any standard US state drivers license is valid to drive or tow recreational vehicles up to 40 feet in length and weighing less than 26,000 pounds. Certain states require a CDL (Commercial Drivers License) for driving recreational vehicles weighing over 26,000 pounds. Class C and B RVs typically weigh less than 26,000 pounds. Class A RV’s may weigh more than 26,000 pounds. It is important to check with each state for special license requirements when renting a Class A RV, or when towing a larger trailer. In this article, we will present a guide for drivers license requirements by state.<br><br></div><h1><strong>The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) sets guidelines for CDL use.</strong></h1><div><br></div><div>There are guidelines on when you would need a commercial drivers license (CDL). The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) <a href="https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/registration/commercial-drivers-license">https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/registration/commercial-drivers-license</a> ) sets these guidelines. A CDL has to be obtained from the state one lives in, that is, your home state. Most states do not require a special license for RVs weighing under 26,000 pounds or towed vehicles under 10,000 pounds. Most Class B and C&nbsp; RVs weigh well under 26,000 pounds. An important distinction is when a recreational vehicle is being driven for business purposes, for instance, a bus or transportation company. In this instance, most states do require that the driver possess a CDL.</div><div><br></div><div>The CDL requirements exist for the safety of society. It is important that individuals driving bus size RV’s, for instance Class A RV, be able to drive them safely and maneuver tight turns and steep roads. In the process of obtaining a CDL, individuals must prove that they possess&nbsp;</div><div>the higher level of knowledge, experience, skills, and physical abilities to drive vehicles in that category.&nbsp;</div><div><br><br></div><div><strong>&nbsp;</strong></div><div><strong>Average Weights of recreational vehicles:</strong></div><div><br></div><div>Class B: 6000 - 8000 pounds</div><div>Class C: 10,000 - 12,000 pounds</div><div>Class A:&nbsp; 13,000 - 30,000 pounds</div><div>Camper Trailer: 5,200 pounds</div><div>Fifth Wheel: Wide range from 8,000 - 20,000 pounds</div><div><br><br></div><h1><strong>State Licensing Requirements For RVs</strong></h1><div><br></div><div>Here is a detailed chart explaining what the requirements are for each state.</div><div><br><br></div><div><strong>Alabama:</strong>&nbsp; No special license required.</div><div><strong>Alaska:</strong>&nbsp; No special license required.</div><div><strong>Arizona:</strong>&nbsp; No special license required.</div><div><strong>Arkansas:</strong>&nbsp; Drivers need a CDL for vehicles that weigh more than 26,000 pounds.</div><div><strong>California:</strong>&nbsp; Drivers need a Class B license for vehicles that weigh more than</div><div>26,000 pounds or have a length of over 40 feet.

<div><em>Class C RV: Thor 4 Winds Mercedes Benz Sprinter in a park in Louisiana</em><br><br>When it comes to planning the perfect family vacation and choosing the <a href="https://mangorv.com/rv-catalog">best RV for a family of four</a>, just like anything else the options can be endless. With different types of RVs to choose from, we’ll tell you why the Class C makes for the best RV vacations and is the best RV for a large family.</div><div><br></div><h1><strong>What features and what equipment should RVs have for a family of 4?</strong></h1><div><br></div><div>RVs have been a great way for families to enjoy road trips, vacations and outdoor camping adventures. They’ve also been the perfect option for people looking to use an RV for full time family living. Traveling or living in an RV with kids often requires preparation and researching which RV best fits the family's needs. A family of four with either an infant, toddlers or school-aged children would need a fully loaded RV that simultaneously meets necessity while providing luxury and comfort.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>The ideal RVs for this traveling family offer spacious living quarters with semi-private bedrooms, overhead bunks, bathrooms and generous storage space. A family of four would need a kitchenette equipped with a microwave to conveniently heat food, a stove to cook light meals, and lastly a compact fridge to preserve any drinks or groceries purchased on the trip. The family would also need an RV with an upgraded heat and air conditioning system that’s user friendly as they may want to control the RVs temperature in the hot summer months or cold winter season. The great thing is most RVs nowadays come with all if not most of these amenities as well as other essential equipment to accommodate a family of four.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div>

<div><em>Spacious Interior of MBS Forester 2401S Class C RV<br></em><br></div><h1><strong>What types of RVs are suitable for a family with 2 children?&nbsp;</strong></h1><div><br></div><div>Generally there are eleven different types of recreational vehicles grouped into two categories based on body, size, functionality and amenities.

The two RV categories are Motorized RVs and Towable RVs.</div><div><br></div><div>Motorized RVs come in <a href="https://www.roverpass.com/blog/rv-classes/">3 Classes</a>, Class A, Class B and Class C. Motorized RVs are built on a truck or van “chassis” which is the base frame of a car, carriage or any wheeled vehicle. Their engines run on either fuel or diesel and they are very durable and reliable with the ability to withstand long distance travel. Motorized RVs are currently in high demand and are considered true motorhomes. They offer various floor plans and modern amenities that make for the best RV trips for families.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Towable RVs come in different styles and sizes that include Toy Haulers, Truck Campers, Folding/Tent/Pop-up Campers, <a href="https://campaddict.com/hybrid-travel-trailers/">Hybrid Travel Trailers</a>, Fifth Wheel Trailers and Travel Trailers. They are great for lot campers and a budget friendly option for traveling across the country. For families looking to travel lightly it could be a slight permitted to ride in Towable RVs.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Both Motorized and Towable RVs are unique and offer various features that allow families to have the best RV vacations. Here is a list of the five best RVs for a family of four or more and reasons why the Class C is our number one choice for most suitable.</div><div><br></div><div><strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;5. &nbsp; Hybrid</strong></div><ul><li>A mix between the pop-up camper and travel trailer with a simple set up</li><li>Hard body provides safety and protection from harsh weather</li><li>Weighs about 3,000 - 7,000 lbs, sleeps 4-8 people</li><li>Major benefit is pop-out beds provide more space without added weight&nbsp;</li><li>Flexibility to use the pop-out when needed&nbsp;</li><li>Downside, wet bathroom, noise and leaks, not ideal for families camping</li></ul><div><br></div><div><strong>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;4. &nbsp; Travel Trailer</strong></div><ul><li>A towable trailer with solid walls and optional slide-out</li><li>Closely resembles the Hybrid camper</li><li>Weighs 1,000 - 10,000 lbs, sleeps 2-8 people</li><li>Major benefit is simplicity, great at campsites and for minimal campers&nbsp;</li><li>Downside, dependent on tow capable vehicles, less room, privacy and accommodations for families with children</li></ul><div><br></div>
