Parked is not the same as safe
A stored RV or boat is still exposed to hail, theft, fire and the slow damage of sitting. Owners often assume a homeowners policy picks that up. Coverage for a vehicle stored on your property is narrower than most people expect, and often capped well below what the thing is worth.
The RV question is really two questions
A motor home is a vehicle and a residence at once, and coverage has to answer both. Liability while driving is one thing. What happens when you are living in it, or when your possessions inside it are stolen, is another.
Full-timers need something different again from someone who takes it out four weekends a year.
Where you use it matters
Boats and personal watercraft have navigational limits. Off-road vehicles have coverage that changes depending on whether you are on your own land, public trails, or a road. Worth knowing which side of those lines you spend your time on.
