No car owner wants to hear that the problem the car is having is in the transmission. Transmissions are one of the most expensive parts that a car owner might have to replace – if the car is old enough, it sometimes makes more sense to replace the car entirely than to replace the transmission. But I’ve found that there are ways to save when you need transmission work! Not only are there ways to save money on a new or rebuilt transmission, there are also ways to locate transmission problems and have them fixed before they become too serious. This blog is designed to help you take better care of your transmission, and avoid paying too much for transmission repairs.
This promise of future excitement is part of what makes it possible for us to continue to work at jobs that may have lost some of their appeal over the years. For some, the retirement dreams may be scaled back from expensive ocean cruises and trips to Paris for a more affordable version due the bursting of the housing bubble, or some other financial setback. If you are a dreamer who is now forced to consider a smaller dream, don't despair! You may be overlooking an affordable, yet exciting way to travel from shore to shore.
Keep reading to find out how motorcycle camping can let you follow your dream without blowing up your bank account:
Safe & Very Affordable
Motorcycles are often overlooked as a way to travel extensively because they are smaller than a car and at first glance it can be difficult to understand their versatility. In fact, however, a properly sized and equipped street bike provides comfortable seating for two riders and storage for their clothing and gear.
A popular touring bike, the Harley-Davidson Electra Glide for 2014 comes equipped with a six-gallon fuel tank, passenger seat back rests and spacious saddlebags. This type of motorcycle is also capable of pulling specially designed camping or storage trailers to provide everything needed to camp your way across the country.
Motorcycles provide excellent fuel mileage, making them a very affordable choice for travel. Their size makes it easy to find parking for camping almost anywhere, as well. In addition, insurance and upkeep are affordable and when they are not in use they can be safely stored in your garage or a storage building.
Perfect for Groups or Family Outings
Retirement travel can be even more fun when done with a group of like-minded people. Imagine you and your spouse sitting beside the flickering flames of a campfire and sharing stories with other couples who are dreaming a similar dream. In addition to adding to the fun, motorcycle camping as a group can offer an additional safety aspect, should a problem occur during the trip.
If motorcycle camping sounds like something you would like to try, there is no need to wait for retirement. With a total cost of only a fraction of what a recreational vehicle would cost, consider investing in a motorcycle to enjoy with your family now before hitting the open road at retirement.
