First, the policy

Ancient civilized countries set slightly deep, such as sedan to three cars, the back before someone carries a sedan. Buy a car to be big big, despite their own size is not big, not every day to pull cargo ...... far away, back to the caravan, concerned about more than ten years, found that we usually feel that you can walk on their own called a car, my friends around me often say: "I still like to be able to walk on their own! ".

Caravan is divided into self-propelled and trailer, on the current national conditions, self-propelled travel is slightly more convenient, this is an indisputable fact, but the problems faced by the trailer caravan has also been serious and expanded by everyone. For example, friends often say that they are not allowed to go on the highway, and the traffic police catch them and penalize them ......

Allow me to be less polite with a huh and ask slightly pointedly have you ever played with a caravan?

There have been cases where RVs have been stopped on the highway. Most of the toll collectors have never seen an RV, and do not know the difference with the truck, naturally do not know how to charge, all kinds of instructions, and then is on the highway to be stopped effect. Some after some phone calls released, some did not release, but a few. The solution is to go ETC to avoid dealing with the toll collector.

The other is the problem of traffic police fines, traffic police fines to be based on, such as parking violations. The second paragraph of article 56 of the traffic law said, and only said: small passenger cars can be towed to the station wagon (go ETC is not to escape the road fee), that is, the caravan. May I ask on what basis the fine?

As for driver's license and license plate, the traffic law does not specify. On a trailer yellow plate, it is not a truck; said I did not have a license it, together with the head of the car and have a license. And the traffic law also did not say that the traveler on which kind of license, whether the driver's license needs to be changed ...... all kinds of documents just to support the caravan on the license plate, the specific on which kind of license, or did not say. Documents less than the law, basically nonsense.

In a word, the regulations on RVs are unclear and imperfect, and of course in the language of the inner more gray say it's called a gray area. And in my opinion, this is a problem that any new thing faces when it appears. Taiwan's e-commerce why than the mainland is a hundred thousand miles worse, because of the emergence of new things on the strict defense.

Secondly, practicality

As before, when it comes to caravans, people usually think that they should be able to walk by themselves. From the point of view of traveling, self-propelled certainly has the advantage. However, being able to walk by yourself = having time to walk?

Many friends ignore this section, thinking that if you buy a self-propelled, you can play everywhere. Only after they buy it do they realize they want to see more and simply don't have that much time or energy. Some of them are left for a month at a time, and when they fire it up again, they find that the battery is losing power. To keep this from happening, sometimes you are forced to fire the car up and run it twice. It's not you playing with the car, it's the car playing with you.

Some people talk about RV travel as if it's a walk in the park, and I want to pooh-pooh it every time I see it. Don't you need to prepare beforehand? This dictates that even if you buy self-propelled, you don't really get out and travel that much, the powertrain is often idle and has to be maintained.

Also, at $200-300k, for example, self-propelled can only be bought as a domestic pickup conversion. The features basically come together, so you don't have to worry about missing this or that. As for quality, use your own discretion. In order to get on the blue plate, the total length can not exceed 6 meters, and the space in the living area can only be associated.

If you buy a trailer, you can almost buy one like the one below, imported from Germany. No power, share the power of the car when traveling, usually basic maintenance is not required. The length of the car is more than 5 meters, and the total length is more than 6 meters, which is more to satisfy everyone's preference for big big big big. (PS: 6 meters on the blue plate, said the car, the carriages do not exceed 8 meters of the caravan can be licensed. Of course this is what the document said, did not rise to the regulations.)

Because of everyone's inherent knowledge, the current domestic is self-propelled when the road, while 80% of Europe and the United States are towing. As everyone's knowledge of the caravan increases, I believe there will be more people choose to trailer.

Trailer

When it comes to towing caravans, we often ask a question: can I afford to tow my car?

Give two initial reference, 1.4T Golf can tow a running weight of 1.4 tons or less (for example, empty car 1 ton + 200 kg of luggage) of the European trailer, 1.5T Fox can tow 1.5 tons or less of the European trailer. American trailer or find a full-size or large beam SUV and pickup trucks, that East East heavy.

Chinese people buy anything to big big, if you also want to big big, European big trailer is not a general car can tow. If you most pursue a four-seater four bed (2 for the sofa bed), kitchen and bathroom complete - this European-style trailer is usually not more than 1.2 tons, power is good, drive up to feel solid compact sedan (such as the Golf, Fox) on the line, compact SUV (such as the Touguan, Impreza) is completely reliable, of course, the Japanese CTV gearbox or Forget it.

Remember, the RV is primarily the owner's bedroom, and many things are done outside the vehicle. Not dew, how to call camping; not outside, how to call the outdoors? Don't mind small, as long as it's not too small.
