	The RV Makeover Bible  Author Quotes “The RV Makeover Bible is the first book to focus entirely on the topic of remodeling, refurbishing, and upgrading recreational vehicles. It’s an important book because it helps to define some of the possibilities in terms of improving as well as personalizing an RV.” “Remodeling is the most economical way to upgrade your RV. It enables you to obtain the features you need and the look you’ve always wanted at a mere fraction of the cost of a new RV.” “Remodeling is essentially the process of customizing and decorating an RV to suit your lifestyle, your needs, and your tastes. In fact – it’s the only way to achieve these crucial goals.” “Regardless of the type of flooring you prefer – the key is maintainability. If the floors in your RV are hard to keep clean and difficult to maintain, you’ve got the wrong flooring.” When it comes to closets and wardrobes – most RV manufacturers throw in a closet, install a closet rod, and call it good. That works great if everything you own can be hung on a coat hanger. However, with some adjustable shelving and a few bins, wardrobes and closets can be easily configured to meet the storage needs of everything and everyone.” “Living rooms are the center piece of every RV. They’re the first place you see when you enter and the last place you look at when you leave. In addition, RVers spend more time in their living rooms than any other place. Consequently, if you’re going to limit your RV remodeling efforts – focus on the living room.” “If you’ve ever cooked a large meal in an RV, you know what I mean when I say that most RV kitchens have serious shortcomings. Counter space is meager. Lighting is often primitive. Pantries are skimpy. Refrigerators are too small. Dishwashers are scarce, and there aren’t enough drawers. From a remodeling perspective, RV kitchens are the veritable land of opportunity. Put another way – there’s no place to go but up.” “Lots of homeowners remodel their bathrooms. After all, it’s not hard to tear down a wall, throw in a new tub, and upgrade all the plumbing fixtures. But in an RV – it’s a whole different story. RV bathrooms are small, there are no walls to tear down, the plumbing is largely hidden, and ‘throwing in a new tub’ is easier said than done.” “Bedrooms are basically private affairs. Tucked away from public view, they operate under different rules than the rest of an RV. That’s the good news. The bad news is that RV bedrooms have a tendency to become the proverbial junk drawer for the entire RV.” For further information contact: Elizabeth Mitchell, Marketing Director emitchell@desertwindspress.com The RV Makeover Bible ISBN-13: 978-0-9769290-1-7 296 Pages, 325 Photos & Illustrations 6” x 9” Paperback $19.95
