With planes grounded, hotels shut and international travel effectively suspended amid the pandemic, Americans are turning to an unlikely summer hero: the recreational vehicle. RVs are making a comeback as one of the safest ways to travel this summer, allowing vacationers to venture out to remote locations while limiting contact with shared spaces.

Travelers are now prioritizing privacy, and some are spending as much as $50,000 on RV rentals.
