2. Nothing to pack to go away.
3. Nothing to unpack to go home.
4. I do not have to take my shoes off and go through a screening process and then look for a place to put my shoes on becuase the airlines still cannot figure out to provide seating for that process.
5. Most trips are 10 to 12 hour drives. Why fly. For us 30 min. to the airport. Need to be one hour early or more. Thats already 1.5 hours waisted. Plane either leaves late or arrives to its destination for a combined loss of one hour or more...now we have 2.5 hours waisted. The what..oh need to get to the hote...wait for a shuttle or tax...after getting your luggage and get to the hotel...that can take another hour. Now we have 3.5 hours waisted and thats conservative. The flight...well lets see lets say only 2 hours. Now were up to 5.5 hours. Okay still saving half the travel if not more. But I may have to sit next to someone who has no common sense and yaps on his or her cell phone for 20 minutes during the trip just before we take off and just after we land...
6. You need not pay for extra luggage.
7. I get a non smoking room all the time.
8. My small fridge although self stocked and waiting for me does not cost me 5 dollars a bottle.
9. No elevators.
10. We see more for the dollar.

Number 1 reason:
The alternative is to stay home and die waiting for fuel prices to drop.

$30.00 for a campsite with a view is better than $100.00 for a room with a wall.
use the extra $70.00 for gas.

I got ya beat...add a sister, niece, and nephew and two dogs to the mix. Much cheaper (and more fun) than two cars and a hotel. It is also easier to take those last minutes turns to "see what's down that road" when RVing.
And I have to add...because we can. It is so worth the money, and even with the extra on gas we still come out cheaper than a hotel/plane tickets/rental car/restaurants.
