It’s already Christmas morning across the dateline in Bali, Australia, and New Zealand where many of my cousins live. For the rest of my immediate and extended family in Russia, Ukraine, Europe, the UK, Africa, and America, today is still Christmas Eve. Wherever you (and my friends) live, may you experience a happy, safe, and blessed Christmas time. This wish is extended to those who have just celebrated Hanukkah or winter solstice and to those of no or differing faiths, too, because we should all coexist together in peace and brotherhood regardless of our politics and religion. May 2024 bring you a peaceful, healthy and satisfying life!

“Rigby” is now temporarily in Boston for the summer and available to rent out when we are not using it. However, circumstances will prevent rentals for the period of May 23 - June 20 unless someone is willing to rent it for an entire month May 22 - Jun 21. Please message if you are interested.

We have a condo in Houston which has been undergoing a complete makeover. Flying down from Boston this week to oversee its completion and hopefully rental and then driving our Wonder back to Boston. Since we will be too busy to use it, that will give you an opportunity to enjoy it. Expected ETA in Boston is mid April.

Our Leisure van has been hibernating this winter down south, north of Houston, Texas, and can be rented there if folks want to take it down to South Padre, Big Bend, or other southern destinations.

Rental rates for an RV vary depending upon the age, condition, amenities, and location of an RV. Our RV includes many luxurious extras and rents for only $400/day. A web page to provide fuller details has been created. Please message for link.

Although it would be nice to just let people take the LTV for a spin, this is not practical on several levels. First, just sitting in or driving the van for a few minutes will not inform the driver or passenger of what life in an LTV is like. Second, this would require someone to accompany the driver and the RV is only built with two seat belts; ergo, only one family member at a time can take it out. Third, there are risks to the owner which need to be mitigated by legal contracts or agreements. Allowing folks to rent the RV for several days satisfies all three issues. The next post will provide details of renting. Until then, message your questions!

For those wanting to avoid possible slideout problems (extending, retracting, or leaking), the BAA's 2021 Wonder RL gives interested buyers a taste of life on board an LTV without a slideout. This floor plan of the 2021 WRL is courtesy of Leisure Vans. If you have not already, you can check out the floor plans of the most recent vans being produced.

Welcome to Boondock Across America, LLC!! BAA, LLC was created out of a need to provide prospective buyers of Leisure Travel Vans an opportunity to rent one and see how it drives and what it is like traveling and living in one before committing purchase. For so long, RV dealers have not had any LTVs on their showroom floors for buyers to experience up close and personal what they look like. Although each year sees a new model with additional features, the basic feel of the vans remains unchanged. You get to choose between a Ford Transit chassis and a Mercedes Sprinter chassis.
