A Great Retirement Option
The biggest flux of Americans into retirement status is well upon us as baby boomers born 1945–1955 lay aside their careers and settle into their golden years. For many, that means a change in daily routine and a change in where they live, often exchanging oversized homes for a comfortable home on wheels.
The Allure of the RV Lifestyle
With about 35 million RV enthusiasts in America, the lifestyle is growing in popularity because it combines life simplification with elegance. A retired couple can live comfortably in a quality RV with the significant advantage of being able to change scenery on a whim. You can wake up to a glorious sunrise in the Arizona desert and bed down to the sound of crashing waves in a Southern California RV park.
RV owners migrate by the tens of thousands every year to “change their season.” Whether fleeing the winter cold for the sunshine of Florida and Arizona, or escaping the southern heat for the cool mountain states and the radiant beauty of Canada, the freedom is just a simple decision away.
A New Trend in RV Ownership
With nearly 15,000 RV parks and campgrounds in America, the options are too alluring to pass up. While many are buying new, luxurious rigs, a new trend is emerging where seniors are finding excellent bargains on previously owned RVs. These savvy owners are choosing to improve the operating performance of their “new-to-them” coaches by investing in modern safety features.
Many are investing in features like Safe-T-Plus, which keeps your vehicle safe in the event of a blowout and improves steering control to make the journey as enjoyable as the destination.
The Best Investment for Your Coach
The best way to know which improvements will make your coach safer is with a Road Performance Assessment (RPA). This service is available at Henderson’s Line-Up in Grants Pass, Oregon, or through our growing network of RPA centers across America. For more information or to schedule your assessment, give us a call. It may well be the best investment you ever make for your RV.

Do I Need An Inspection?
At Henderson’s Line-Up, inspections are a big part of what we do every day. Unlike passenger cars, which are fairly easy to have inspected, (or even to inspect yourself if you’re so inclined) trucks, trailers and motorhomes are large and heavy, and have a number of different suspension/brake and steering systems depending on the make/model.
