Mobile Satellite for your R.V. – Spoiled and Loving It
Let’s just get one thing straight right from the beginning; staying in an R.V. in a campground is not roughing it. If you have ever taken a couple of sleeping bags, a cooler, a flashlight and an old percolator coffee pot to the woods, you know real camping.
Recreational vehicles bring all of the conveniences of home out to the forest with you. They are amazing in their design and performance. They can be small or bigger than the average person’s house. However, whether my opinion is fueled by jealousy over still having just a tent, I still believe that staying in an R.V. does not constitute camping.
So, to prove my point, I would like to share with you a few little accessories that you can get for your home away from home. We have all seen the standard air conditioning, cable hook-ups and the slide-outs that double the size of the vehicle. However, have you ever seen a little box sitting on top of an R.V. and wondered what amazing technology that provided?
Could it be a machine that cooks breakfast for you? Or, maybe it is a sound machine that simulates the sounds of the forest since you are all snuggled up in your cozy R.V.? Nope, it is none of those things.
I am here to tell you about the ultimate accessory that proves that there is nothing about staying in an R.V. that even resembles roughing it. It is the portable Mobile/RV Satellite. I am not kidding. You can attach one of these bad boys to your R.V. and get hundreds of channels for your viewing pleasure.
Now, you tell me how that is anywhere close to roasting marshmallows and telling ghost stories around the campfire? Or those long scary trips to find the bathroom with you, your terrified-of-every-twig-snapping sister and a flashlight that only lasts half of the journey? Or even that excited yet terrifying moment when you think a bear is going through your cooler only to discover that your dad gets late night munchies too?
Microwaves, showers with hot water all of the time and refrigerators were enough to spoil the owners of RV’s, Mobile/RV Satellites have just upped the ante. It brings being spoiled to a whole new level. With Incredible FTA, you can watch unlimited programming from around the world with no monthly charges. You pay for your equipment and you can enjoy free television every time you hit the road. Once you experience the huge selection of channels available with FTA, you might decide to install a dish at home as well!
So, if you are one of those lucky owners of these vehicles, I suggest you pamper yourself even further and get the satellite. And please keep in mind that it would be a very nice gesture to invite the poor tent campers next to you over for some popcorn and a few re-runs of “I Love Lucy.” At least we might not be so jealous anymore. No, we still will be.
