For Canadians Travelling in the USA, it is still a lot better than travelling in Canada because of our fuel costs, today!

Canadian are still RVing but on shorter trips.

Fuel Costs

1 litre = 0.26417205236 US Gallon. Currently we pay $1.25 a litre for regular Gas.

More for diesel

1 gallon [US, liquid] = 3.785411784 liter

That translates to $4.73 plus exchange 5% = $4.97 a gallon, we pay here in Ontario

In Texas and Florida it is now only about $3.57 a US gallon. That is 28% less

Using the KOA Calculator the cheaper US gas will save us over $500 for our winter trip

By staying 3 months instead of 1 month that will save us about another $800

PS we stay in a 5 star resort for $750 plus hydro, "Snow to Sun" at $8.34 a day versus $19.50 a day on a 30 day excursion
