🚐 Why Your Auto Insurance Isn’t Enough When You Live in Your RV Full Time


Most full-time RVers don’t realize they’re underinsured — until it’s too late.

Let's change that.

Meet Dave and Lisa

They sold their home, hit the road in their Class A motorhome, and embraced the RV lifestyle. Life was amazing — until one night their RV was broken into at a campground. The worst part? Their auto insurance denied the claim. Why? Because they were living in their RV full time… and their policy wasn’t designed for that.


❌ Auto Insurance Isn’t Designed for Living in Your RV


When you insure your RV through your car insurance provider, you’re often getting vehicle coverage — not residential coverage.


That means you could be missing out on:

  • Personal liability protection (what if someone trips at your campsite and sues you?)

  • Personal belongings coverage (think laptops, tools, kitchen gear)

  • Emergency expense coverage (where will you stay if your RV is in the shop?)

  • Full-time living protections (because it’s not just a vehicle — it’s your home)


🔍 “But I Have Full Coverage…”


That’s a common phrase — but in this case, it’s misleading. Full coverage on an auto policy usually means:

  • Liability coverage

  • Collision

  • Comprehensive


But it does not mean:

  • Dwelling-style protection

  • Loss-of-use coverage

  • Medical payments to others

  • Special full-time liability for living in the unit


✅ What Full-Time RV Insurance Actually Covers


If you live in your RV 150+ nights per year or use it as your primary residence, you need coverage that works like a blend of auto insurance + homeowners insurance. That includes:

  • Higher liability limits

  • Medical payments to others if they’re hurt at your campsite

  • Coverage for personal items inside the RV

  • Coverage when you’re parked long-term at a park, campground, or boondocking

  • Alternative living expense coverage if your RV is totaled or unlivable


⚠️ One Claim Could Change Everything


RV living is freedom — but the wrong policy can ruin it all. If your current policy isn’t designed for full-timers, your claim could be rejected, leaving you stuck with thousands in repairs or liability.


💡 The Bottom Line


If your RV is your home, treat it like one. Auto insurance isn’t enough. You need a policy built for your lifestyle — one that protects your rig, your stuff, and your peace of mind.
