It seems Canadians, and Albertans in particular, are taking the slogan “Go RV-ing” to heart.
“We’ve seen a 13 per cent increase in sales in the first quarter nationally,” Go RVing national spokesperson Emily Reid tells 660News. “Alberta is our highest and hottest spot in the country with an increase of 42 per cent in sales just in the first quarter of 2012.”
Reid says the RV has come a long way — even in the last couple of years — and it’s a great way for the whole family to be together while on vacation.
She adds people who are concerned about high gas prices have told them they simply pick a destination closer to home and save on gas.
