Car License

Most medium sized motorhomes can be driven on an ordinary passenger vehicle license.  Because in fact most medium sized motorhomes drive just as easily as an ordinary motor vehicle!  It's only when you get to the much bigger units than you may need to have an upgraded vehicle license.  We'll be able to tell you which is which.

Why choose a motorhome?

For many people the choice between caravan, motorhome and fifth wheeler is very personal.  The combined nature of the driving cab and living area of the motorhome makes for a very seemless and convenient travelling/living vehicle.  A motorhome has advantages in the areas of : -

Improved fuel economy (in most cases medium sized motorhomes driven on a car license will use as much if not less per kilometre compared to a 6 cylinder family car)

Improved security.  With a motorhome your belongings and valuables go with you wherever you go which can be particularly important during extended tours because valuables don't have to be left in a caravan at the local park.

Motorhomes are easy to drive.  Arguably (especially with modern reverse cameras) motorhomes are easier to reverse than caravans or fifth wheelers.  With a motorhome there's no need to purchase a suitable towing vehicle or be concerned about electrical hassles that often bug the caravan tourer.

When you're driving a motorhome you're never in a rush.  You can take it easy and have a good look around this great country of hours.  If for some reason you don't make that next town on-time it's very easy to pull over and rest up in a roadside lay-by.  You'll never risk driving tired with that sort of convenience.

These have been just a few of the advantages of a motorhome.  Please don't hesitate to give on of our consultants a call on 08 9493 7933 or email george@parkland.net.au to discover even more reasons to consider a motorhome.
