Compare the Types of RVs in Wisconsin
There are many different types of motorhomes available. Each is characterized differently and meets a different need:
- Class A motorhomes are the largest RVs you’ll find on the road.
- Class B motorhomes are small RVs, essentially camper vans with some amenities.
- Class C motorhomes are mid-size models, also called mini-motorhomes.
- Motorhome bus conversion refers to a bus that has been converted into an RV.
- Travel trailers are motorhomes attached by a trailer hitch to make them towable.
- Fifth wheels are attached to a truck by a fifth wheel hitch and towable.
- Truck campers are add-on campers attached to the bed of a truck.
Each type of RV listed above is unique. The same is true for Wisconsin RV insurance, so learn which coverage is best for the type of motorhome you own before purchasing a policy.
Consider Your Wisconsin RV Insurance Coverage Options
Wisconsin RV insurance policies protect you and your vehicle in a number of invaluable ways. If you own a motorized RV, and not a trailer-type, you will need state-mandated liability coverage, at the very minimum. This will be included in your RV policy, to cover bodily injury and property damage claims against you after an accident.
Comprehensive and collision coverage is helpful if your RV is damaged and you need to repair it without paying out of pocket. Some policies also cover emergency expenses that occur after a collision, including unexpected hotel costs.
If you’re on vacation and someone else damages your RV while it is parked, vacation liability may be a good option. Personal effects replacement is another policy benefit that would help you replace items if your motorhome is burglarized. And if you choose to live in your RV year-round, a full-timers package may make the most sense for you.
If you are unsure about what to include in your RV policy, a local agent can help you determine your insurance needs, based on the vehicle type, where you travel and your driving record.
