Synopsis

The book is about the (mis)adventures of a retired couple who, having never previously driven an RV, bought a 30-foot motorhome and embarked on a three-month, 16,000 mile trip from their home in Florida to Alaska and back. This humorous travel and advice book includes stories of the people and places they encountered, as well as the challenges they faced. The book is intended for three audiences. The first includes people who are thinking about buying an RV and travelling the countryside. The book provides advice for navigating the challenges that RVers face who are as adventurous (foolish?) as the author and his wife were. The second audience consists of people who want to visit Alaska. Although these people are likely to take a cruise ship to Alaska, many may be interested to learn what it’s like to make the journey in an RV and relieved to learn that their decision was the right one. And the third audience for the book are people who currently own an RV who want to relive the experiences they had when first driving their coach down the highway. You Gotta Be Nuts... offers insightful commentary about places like Wounded Knee, SD Valdez, AK, and the terrible conditions of roads in the Yukon Territory. Other RV/travel books might advise you about how to handle your mail while on the road, but You Gotta Be Nuts... provides helpful tips about such critical matters as waste disposal, trouble-shooting the owner’s manual, border crossings, and broken windshields.
