We picked up our lovingly named \u00abCriss Cross\u00bb Maverick rental van, packed it up with everything we thought we&#8217;d need for a long weekend, got the cats a sitter, and took off to try how traveling in a camper van vs RV feels, for three fabulous days!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"container my-4\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n        <p class=\"description\">\n            In this below-sea-level basin, steady drought and record summer heat make Death Valley a land of extremes.

a post-COVID confinement world. As restrictions loosen, it seems a summer road trip is on just about everyone&#8217;s minds. So for all of you considering jumping into a rental vehicle this summer, let&#8217;s break down the difference between two of your travel lifestyle choices, RV life vs. van life!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both are great options! On the surface, to anyone living the brick and mortar life, RV life and van life probably look very similar. Both have you living, sleeping, and cooking out of a tiny space. Both allow you to pick up and move as you please.

The daily rental rate is going to be cheaper. On top of that, the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maverick Escape Campervan<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> rental boasts an average of 17 miles per gallon fuel economy. In contrast, we&#8217;re lucky if we average 13 miles per gallon in our diesel truck \/ fifth wheel set up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Campground spots are also going to be cheaper. Since these particular vans have no power cord to plug in or bathroom wastewater to dump, you can opt for more affordable (or even free) parking options.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing to be noted on this topic, since the van cannot be plugged into a power pole you will need to either bring along an external battery bank or an AC car power inverter to be used in conjunction with the main van battery if you want to recharge electronics such as your phones, cameras, and computers. However, if you opt for the inverter, you&#8217;ll only want to use it in spurts, and you&#8217;ll need to make sure the van is on, so you don&#8217;t kill your ride&#8217;s battery. You may notice that the van takes in extra power from a rooftop solar panel, but this is mostly for its mini-refrigerator, which doesn&#8217;t hold much but gets the job done for a weekend trip.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RV Life<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You&#8217;re going to get more amenities in an RV, so you&#8217;ll be paying more. But an RV rental is also going to be more costly in other ways. You&#8217;ll be going through gas quicker. You&#8217;re also more than likely going to be wanting to find a spot you can plug in your rig so that you can make use of all of those extra conveniences. So it&#8217;s worth noting that the campsites you&#8217;ll be seeking out, with electricity and sewer connections, will be more expensive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8212;-<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some additional resources to check out once you&#8217;re ready to start locking down camping spots for your van or RV:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinderstravels.com\/2019\/05\/31\/how-to-find-an-rv-camping-spot-near-national-and-state-parks-during-peak-season\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Find an RV Park Near National and State Parks During Peak Season<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinderstravels.com\/2019\/06\/30\/how-to-pick-the-best-rv-park-to-stay-at-during-your-trip-part-one\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Pick the Best RV Park to Stay at During Your Trip \u2013 Part One<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinderstravels.com\/2019\/07\/31\/how-to-pick-the-best-rv-park-to-stay-at-during-your-trip-part-two\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Pick the Best RV Park to Stay at During Your Trip \u2013 Part Two<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":30069,"id":30069,"title":"IMG_2881-4","filename":"IMG_2881-4.jpg","filesize":4590611,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/es\/img_2881-4-2\/","alt":"Couple standing at Death Valley entrance","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"img_2881-4-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2021-05-12 17:27:30","modified":"2021-07-13 18:21:09","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1920,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-300x225.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":225,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-768x576.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":576,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-1024x768.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":768,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-1536x1152.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1152,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-2048x1536.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1536,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4-1200x900.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":900,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":225,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":300,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/IMG_2881-4.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":450}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Driving Experience Do I Want?<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Van Life<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want a familiar and easy driving experience, you&#8217;re going to want a van rental. We both loved driving Criss Cross! That beautiful van fit in any parking spot we desired, and that&#8217;s not something to just write off. You&#8217;ll get much more of a road trip adventure out of a vehicle this size. In contrast, the enormity of our RV makes us seldom feel the urge to stop and explore places along the way. So we end up missing out on a lot of the fun road trip experiences that this great nation has to offer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, if something breaks in a van, just about any auto shop can help you out with a repair.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>RV Life<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, RVs are going to be much longer than vans. It will always be trickier to navigate and park when towing or driving a larger vehicle. On top of that, as mentioned before, it will get worse gas mileage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing to consider is that you will benefit from having a bathroom with you at all times on the road, which could be a big plus for many during this time of closures and social distancing. That option, in conjunction with your kitchen, means you don&#8217;t necessarily have to make any stops beyond refilling your gas tank.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":false,"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Kind Of Lifestyle Do I Want To Enjoy During This Trip?<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Van Life<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vans are never going to have as much room or amenities as RVs. However, it doesn&#8217;t always feel that way. Criss Cross had a shocking amount of storage. We are known to slightly overpack for trips, and we didn&#8217;t even use half of the van&#8217;s available storage space. These particular vans also do not come with a bathroom, so you&#8217;ll be relying on campground facilities and public restrooms during your trip. The great trade-off here though is, it forces you to be outdoors more often!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our three-day rental was magical. I slept in <a href=\"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/extras\/\">the rooftop camper<\/a>; my husband had the whole inside bed to himself. We woke up with the sun, used the kitchenette in the back of the van to brew coffee and make oatmeal every morning, then took off, spending our days exploring until sunset! Whenever we needed more sunscreen or a snack along the way, we never had to worry about whether we forgot something back at the fifth wheel, because everything was always with us. If you&#8217;re planning a summer vacation where you&#8217;re trying to get your family to unplug and spend more time outdoors, I strongly suggest a van rental!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>RV Life<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the flip side, my favorite aspect of our RV is that no matter whether we just had a day full of work or a day full of adventure and hiking, we end our days in a rig that feels like a home. There is no need to convert our dining area into a bed at the end of the day. We always have an actual couch, full bathroom, giant refrigerator, and a Netflix-ready TV at our disposal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I also love that Barrett and I can spread out when we&#8217;re working on projects. And, if someone gets sick, they can relax in the bedroom, while the other person can still have a life in the living room.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":29961,"id":29961,"title":"DSC02034-2","filename":"DSC02034-2.jpg","filesize":16355219,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/es\/dsc02034-2-2\/","alt":"Man standing on the side of a mountain","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"dsc02034-2-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2021-05-12 17:24:32","modified":"2021-07-13 18:25:14","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1707,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-1536x1024.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-2048x1365.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1365,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2-1200x800.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":200,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":267,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02034-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":400}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Long Is My Trip?<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Van Life<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, this will vary from person to person, but due to the reduced amount of amenities and power, many people won&#8217;t want to be in a van rental for much longer than a week or two. I thought three days in one was perfect and became very emotional when returning it, so I probably could have lasted a bit longer. Eventually, though, I know I would have been longing for the extra conveniences our RV provides.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That being said, we had such a different experience at Death Valley in our rental van than we would have had in our fifth wheel. The van trip felt much more like an outdoor vacation!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>RV Life<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re signing up for a full-blown three-month summer vacation, an RV is probably going to be more appealing for a lot of the reasons already mentioned above. Once you pass the couple-week threshold, many of us start to crave the return of our familiar comforts. That being said, I grew up being toted around America during the summers in a van and survived to tell the tale. Now that I&#8217;m an adult, I love that I&#8217;ve had those experiences. So it really is possible either way.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":30027,"id":30027,"title":"DSC02260-2","filename":"DSC02260-2.jpg","filesize":15042699,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/es\/dsc02260-2-2\/","alt":"Camper with rooftop","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"dsc02260-2-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2021-05-12 17:26:22","modified":"2021-07-13 18:22:05","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1707,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-1536x1024.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-2048x1365.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1365,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-1200x800.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":200,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":267,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":400}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which One Is Better?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In my opinion, they both fit the bill for different types of trips and people.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RV life is for those who want some of the comforts of home to come on the road with them. It is also great for those on a more extended trip, for trips to places with unpredictable weather, and for those who know they&#8217;ll need to spend at least some time indoors, either working or relaxing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, for those of you merely looking for an affordable summer rental, a couple of weeks in a van may be all that you need! Van life is smaller, simpler, and perfect for those looking for an outdoor adventure or unplugged vacation. If a campervan summer sounds more appealing than hauling a giant RV all over the United States, I cannot recommend Escape Camper Vans enough! Their prices are just right for anyone on a budget, but the vehicle has everything you&#8217;ll need, and you don&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re on a budget at all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, if you&#8217;re loving the sound of a van, except for in the amenities department, Escape Campervan does have a truck camper rental, the Newport Camper, that&#8217;s worth looking into. It includes a shower, toilet, microwave, A\/C, and heat. It could be the perfect compromise!<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":30027,"id":30027,"title":"DSC02260-2","filename":"DSC02260-2.jpg","filesize":15042699,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/es\/dsc02260-2-2\/","alt":"Camper with rooftop","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"dsc02260-2-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2021-05-12 17:26:22","modified":"2021-07-13 18:22:05","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1707,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-1536x1024.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-2048x1365.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1365,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2-1200x800.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":200,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":267,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC02260-2.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":400}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Book A Campervan And Try One<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For now, I&#8217;m going to stick to RV life.
