Fan-Tastic Vent will exchange the air in your vehicle in minutes. Cooking smoke and unpleasant aromas are whisked away in seconds.

Fan-Tastic Vent can reduce the use of air conditioning allowing you to breath natural, fresh ambient outside air.

Fan-Tastic Vent is light weight, compact, bug resistant, durable and seals tight when not in use. The sealed motor operates at variable or 3-speeds depending on the model for selected performance levels. Installs in minutes and fits the standard existing opening provided by most recreational vehicle manufacturers.

Whether your rig costs $5,000 or a million dollars, the quality of the air you breathe should remain your paramount objective.

My husband and I sold our house and all our stuff in 2000, and hit the road in a travel trailer. We work at campgrounds and resorts to make a living. When we aren't working, we go fishing, look for farm markets and local scenery, and get to know the area we are in. My hobbies are quilting, sewing, making jewelry, and cooking. I discovered I am gluten intolerant in April of 2007, so any recipes I post since then are gluten free.

Bike Racks for RVs
by Tim R. Enright
There are several different types of bike racks on the market which can be used by RVers. Most styles will accommodate at least 2 bicycles. Each of the various racks will have their good and bad points. Allow me to elaborate on some of the more common types.

Hitch Mount Racks are the most common. These mount to your RV or vehicle using a trailer hitch mount. They can be mounted on hitches on the front or rear of your vehicle. Frame Mount, Bumper Mount and Ladder Mount Bike Racks mount to the rear of your RV. There is also a bike rack mount that mounts to the roof of your pop-up camper.

All of the hitches described above have one thing in common. They leave your bike exposed to the weather and the risk of theft. To combat this problem, several manufacturers have developed areas inside of your RV to store and transport your bicycles. Some have storage doors in the side or rear to put your bikes. You could also opt for a Toy Hauler style RV which would not only allow you to transport your bicycles, but your ATVs and motorcycles as well.

Last but not least, you could purchase a folding bicycle. These bikes have quick release clamps that allow you to fold them up for compact storage.
