Who but American Modern protects your RV
in all the right places…
Extensive Coverage. Special Features. Solid Expertise.
As the owner of a motor home or travel trailer, insurance most likely isn't the first thing on your mind. However, are you sure your coverage properly protects you from loss? You may think your automobile policy provides adequate protection. Maybe you even have a policy specifically for your RV. But, there are many important differences from one specialty policy to another, which may leave you uninsured and out of luck if something happens to your RV.
American Modern Insurance Group (American Modern), wants you to fully enjoy your RV experience, without worrying about your insurance protection. American Modern offers comprehensive coverage, first-rate features and travel and safety tips geared towards the needs of the RV owner. Take a look!

A Policy Designed to Meet Your Needs. At American Modern, our focus is on providing quality protection for just a few select types of insurance, including manufactured homes, motorcycles and recreational vehicles. Our specialty focus helps us better understand the products we insure, so we can provide a policy that is designed to meet your needs. For more information on American Modern, click here.
Specialty Policies Protect You Against Lots of Things That Can Happen. Sometimes you can cover your RV by adding an endorsement to a policy you already have. But, that coverage is usually pretty basic. To obtain increased coverage limits, as well as coverage types such as personal effects, vacation liability, and total loss replacement coverage, you need the protection of a specialty policy.

RV Coverages
|
At American Modern, we offer two policy types for recreational vehicles: comprehensive and liability only:
- Our comprehensive policies automatically provide protection against sudden and accidental loss due to a collision, fire, windstorm, landslide, vandalism and other perils.
- Liability only policies protect you against liability issues that may arise from using your RV.
Optional Coverages We Include:
- Total Loss Coverage. Both of the following coverages can come in handy in the event of a total loss:
- Total Loss Replacement Coverage. This optional coverage, available on select units, pays to replace your RV if it is damaged beyond repair. You receive another unit of the same kind and quality. No depreciation!
- Outstanding Loan Balance Coverage. When a RV is protected for its actual cash value, a claim settlement for a total loss sometimes isn't enough to pay off an outstanding loan. This optional coverage ensures you're not left with a loan to pay and no RV to show for it! If you want this coverage, let us know within the first 30 days of owning your unit.
- Diminishing Deductible. This elective coverage lowers your deductible each year you remain claim-free. Be a safe driver, and in four years you'll have a zero deductible
- Personal Effects Coverage. We offer motor home customers two choices for protecting their personal belongings: actual cash value or replacement cost coverage.
- Roadside Assistance. You won't need a separate service plan if you add this optional coverage to your policy. Whether your RV breaks down, you run out of gas, or you simply lock yourself out, call the toll-free number for assistance.
- Emergency Expense. Optional protection which pays temporary housing expenses when a covered peril disables your RV. The coverage also pays the cost to get you - and your RV - back home.
- Vacation Liability. Premises liability coverage, which protects against accidents that may happen on site while your unit is parked at a campsite or RV park.
- Full-timers Coverage. We can provide liability protection, similar to a homeowner's policy. It's a good thing to have if you live in your RV all the time.
- Mexico Coverage. Going across the border? Add this optional coverage to your policy for physical damage protection while in Mexico.
- Tow Dolly Coverage. Full coverage policies automatically receive $2,000 in coverage; purchase additional protection if you need it.
