But we\u2019d never tried the \u201cbig boys\u201d of camping, the Class C and Class A RV\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Heading south, we had the good fortune of connecting with Gigi Stetler of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rvsalesofbroward.com\/\">Planet RV<\/a> in Broward County, Florida.\u00a0 We wanted to take out a couple different RV\u2019s so we could compare and contrast the different models and classes available. Luckily, she had a number to choose from during the limited dates we were available.\u00a0 We made our reservations last month and began our travels last week. To say it\u2019s been a blast would be an understatement. (See why by clicking out our other articles at the bottom of this story.)<\/p>\n<p>While we were in the Planet RV office, we grabbed a couple minutes of Gigi\u2019s time and learned more about her business. We also got to ask her a number of questions we\u2019ve gotten from our readers.<\/p>\n<p>A petite dynamo, with more business savvy that most I know, she\u2019s on top of her game in the RV business, and offered some great tips for those thinking of taking up RV\u2019ing.\u00a0 Take a look.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9exJVxIiF9A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If you are <strong>renting or buying\u00a0an RV<\/strong> in the South Florida area, here\u2019s the\u00a0contact information:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rvsalesofbroward.com\/\">Planet RV<\/a>; <span><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span>3030 Burris Rd, Davie, FL 33314<\/span>;\u00a0 954-514-7860<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">-=-=-=-=-=-=-<\/p>\n<p>Check out the\u00a0other articles in our 2016 RV Adventure series:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/2016\/09\/19\/2016-rv-adventure-part-1\/\">2016 RV Adventure &#8211; Part One<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/2016\/09\/20\/7-reasons-to-rent-an-rv-in-september\/\">7 Reasons to rent an RV and travel in September<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/2016\/09\/21\/why-an-rv-tops-a-hotel\/\">Why an RV is better than a hotel?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/2016\/09\/22\/setting-up-camp-in-an-rv-how-easy-is-it\/\">How quick is it set up your RV at a campground?<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/dougbardwell.com\/db\/2016\/09\/26\/packing-it-all-in-an-rv-is-there-enough-room-to-take-all-your-gear\/\">Packing it all in an RV \u2013 is there enough room to take all your gear?
