The magazines have fewer relevent articles, they are just too skimpy on pages and info to justify the price. I used to look forward to receiving my rv magazines, now I have let me subscriptions lapse. And, I am someone who prefers to read newspapers (not online version) and books (not kindle)!!!

I let all mine expire. Being fulltime they are always late.Besides that,someone always leaves them in the laundry room at most of the parks.I find what I need online. Tom

Since I retired last year I have let all my subscriptions expire. The Magazines dont catch up to me for up to 6 months...

Seems to me everything is in a big spiral downward. Same travel spots in all the mags. The only subscriptions I keep are to Camping World. (The service centers are good)

I prefer paper for books, mags, reports. Easier for me to read anywhere, flip back and forth. I retain more, read the whole article. But also make monthly trips to the dump to recycle papers, mags. So for many forms of reading, online is best.

As a full-timer, I have to pay for mail forwarding. Therefore, I would read a magazine on-line or not at all.

We only subscribe to Motorhome and Good Sam mags. Any others we want to read we buy at the news stand, but not very often. I much prefer to read online. We are traveling so much I do not have time for snail mail of any kind. We get absolutely zero bills via mail for the same reason. All bills are paid online too. No mags in print form, like newspapers, are a thing of the past.

Well, since this is just year 3 of RVing, I am "much more inclined". Also, I spend enough time on the computer already without having to read my magazines there as well. I would only change if I were a fulltimer or nearly so.

Paper is out, internet is in and live goes on..I know, I am an old papermaker.

The RV magazines, like all magazines, have reduced in size greatly in the last 5 years and much of it is advertising. It is not worth the cost anymore. I, too, read my RV news online.
