Try Before You Buy
With prices starting at around $25,000 for the base model, the Salem FSX is a relatively affordable option for those looking to purchase a travel trailer. However, renting one through RVshare for about $135 per night allows you to experience the RV's features, layout, and towing requirements before making a long-term commitment.
Renting a Salem FSX gives you the opportunity to test out the unique features of each model, such as the outdoor kitchen, LED lighting, and spacious living areas. You can also get a feel for how easy it is to tow and maneuver the RV, which is important if you're new to RVing. If you're unsure about driving or towing the RV yourself, many RVshare owners offer delivery as an option, allowing you to enjoy the camping experience without the stress of transportation.
