Kandy García, a 91-year-old retiree from Argentina, continues to backpack around the world, refusing to stop traveling. She organizes trips for older women and declines advertising offers, relying on her pension. The WhatsApp group Mujeres Rodanteras Argentinas brings together 25,000 female motorhome enthusiasts. Alan and Liz, a couple from Rosario, after 40 years in the vehicle manufacturing business, handed it over to their son and set off to travel the US in one of their own motorhomes.

Motorhome rental in Argentina: costs and legal requirements

The average daily rental rate for a motorhome in Argentina ranges from USD 100 to USD 120, plus fuel, insurance, and a security deposit. A basic used motorhome costs between USD 30,000 and USD 40,000, while a fully equipped unit ranges from USD 100,000 to USD 120,000. Under National Road Safety Agency (ANSV) rules, van-type motorhomes have a maximum speed limit of 110 km/h on highways. Industry representatives are in talks with Transport and Tourism authorities to update legislation, as some large models are temporarily classified as commercial cargo vehicles despite being for private use.

Retirees from Rosario convert 1995 Mercedes-Benz bus into motorhome

Silvia and Sergio from Rosario converted a 1995 Mercedes-Benz 1215 passenger bus into a motorhome and have been traveling South America for over a year. Sergio originally bought the bus for spare parts for his work trucks, but his wife suggested turning it into a mobile home. The interior includes a full kitchen, inverter refrigerator, washing machine, air conditioning, and a 500-liter potable water tank. Power is supplied by four 450 W solar panels and two 200 Ah lithium batteries, with a 3000 W inverter peaking at 5000 W. A dry toilet and grey water tank are used. The couple reports lower stress and reduced consumption since retiring.

More than 10 rental companies operate in the country. The Expo Rodantear show is scheduled for October 22–25.
