Travel in Luxury ... Travel in an RV; See the Latest at the MARVAC Detroit Camper & RV Show

OKEMOS, Mich., Feb. 13 -- Leave behind your computer, telephone, television or all of the above for even a day to go camping? Forget it! Today's RVs allow you to bring along the luxuries of home -- computer hook-ups, home theaters with DVD players, CD players, telephone jacks, and large, double refrigerators, complete with icemakers, are among the many conveniences available to RV enthusiasts. The luxuries don't end with the electronic components; Corian countertops, ceramic tile, oak cabinets and china toilets are offered in many high-end units as well. Be on the lookout for three special units February 12-16 at the Detroit Camper & RV Show!

The Allure First Avenue by Country Coach, priced from $281,400, is a 40- foot Class A diesel pusher with luxurious amenities such as a walk-in closet, double slide-outs and a home theater system by Bose.
