Trivia
A life-long fan of camping, Jeff Daniels has owned an RV for years. According to a Detroit radio interview, his RV driving lessons for the movie were quickly canceled when he arrived on location in his personal recreational vehicle.

Goofs
When Bob and the RV are stuck at the top of a mountain road with all wheels off the ground and he guns the gas pedal the RPM goes up to 6000 RPM, yet the speedometer is still at zero. When you have transmission in gear and wheels turn, regardless of ground contact or not, the speedometer will still register your speed through rotation of rear wheels thru the transmission which is in gear.

Quotes
Bob Munro: Yo, my mobile-homeboys, what's trippin' in the wood?
Hip Hop Wannabe: This termite belong to you?
Bob Munro: Yo, my man said...
Carl Munro: [gets mad] Don't call him...
Bob Munro: [restraints Carl] Easy! This my man C, he small but ferocious, but you dogs, you hardcore, where you from?
Hip Hop Wannabe: Scottsdale!
Bob Munro: Scottsdale, in the 'Zona! That's a hardcore 'hood. But you want to take on my man C, here, go ahead, because, you know, he's fierce, he gonna come up in your face, he gonna major damage you. You gonna walk away, maybe limp. But I say talk to the hand, call waiting, because he's out. Boy is out. I can't restrains him. Because I'm conversating you right now to give him a chance to cool down, to get back to a realistic level, as it were. Because we could be chillin' in our crib. Not just on this mobile home thing, representing Mali-bu and Westwood, you know. Malling it, like we all can. Boys to mensch. Pimp my Mercedes, call me back, put you on hold. You know what I'm saying?
Hip Hop Wannabe: Er... we gotta go.
[leaves]
Bob Munro: Mm-hmm, you better, man, don't make me call my lawyer, 'cause I'll audit!

The Gornickes and the Munroes sing (and rap) "Route 66".

5/10

Well-paced silliness passable if you're in the mood

I was in the mood for something stupid and silly. RV filled the bill, mostly because of Cheryl Hinds and the Goernike family (headed by Kristen Chenowith and Jeff Daniels). The dumb singing alone moved things along well enough. Robin Williams never believed his own character which is hard-to-take from a film's lead. And his boss, the film's ostensible villain, was a zero.

On the plus side are the film's pacing, the Goernike's, Cheryl Hinds, and three strokes of brilliance by Williams amongst a lot of glib throwaways. To its credit, RV never bogs down by taking itself too seriously or by trying to convince the audience it has an actual plot beyond its absurd trappings. Director Sonnenfeld has an amusing cameo as Irv.
