Keeping your RV secure
The holiday season brings out a host of suggestions on how to keep the bad guys away from your cache of presents at home. We may not think much about that situation whenRVing, but those same bad guys know that the modern RV often has nice, spendy techno-goodies that can be harvested. In two recent incidents, RVers have been hit by burglars: One couple, sleeping over in a Cracker Barrel Restaurant parking lot awoke the next morning to find thieves had broken into their tow vehicle and ripped off a few things. In a more dramatic experience, anRVer returned to his rig, parked at a service facility lot, only to encounter a gun-toting thief coming out the door of the RV. Fortunately, theRVer came off physically unharmed, but the crook made an exit with some expensive loot, and damaged the rig to boot. What can be done to prevent these kinds of problems?
