Soda company executive Bob Munro is stressed, threatened with losing his job and his lifestyle since his abusive boss Todd Mallory hired Stanford geek Laird to work at the company. Bob has promised his wife Jamie, his teenage daughter Cassie and his young son Carl a family vacation in Hawaii, but Todd demands that Bob prepare a presentation and attend a business meeting with the owners of a family company in a merging operation scheduled for the same period. In an attempt to hide the truth, Bob rents a recreational vehicle and tries to convince his wife and kids that a road trip to the Colorado Rocky Mountains will bring old-fashioned values back to their dysfunctional family. After many incidents in the trailer parking area, the rookie Bob is helped by the bizarre but friendly Gornicke family. They escape from the Gornickes and initiate a journey of difficulties and learning, in the process retrieving their forgotten family bonds.
RV was selected as one of the films to be shown to the troops all over the world. It screened in Vicenza, Wiesbaden, Stuttgart and Ramstein.
Whenever a big white man picks up a banjo, my cheeks tighten.
We watch TV in four separate rooms and IM each other when dinner is ready.
Daddy?
Yeah, baby?
I'm never gonna get married.
Why not? It's not as bad as it looks.
Because I always want to live here with you.
Well, you know, one day, you're gonna grow up, meet a wonderful guy, and you're gonna get married. But you and I will always be best friends.
Dad, could you be any more of a dork?
Cassie, you know where this girl lives or you just think you know?
I know where, I just know one way to get there. And you refuse to go that way.
Because it's a stupid way.
You're lost, aren't you?
Yes, I'm lost, because our daughter doesn't know where her friend's house is. She knows it's next to the house with the fountain.
What happened to Hawaii?
Come on, Hawaii's a winter destination. It's summer. The place I'm taking you is special, and not Iike Uncle Mike. It's Lake Nirvana, where I went with my parents as a kid.
Is he being funny? Because I can never tell.
Welcome aboard, everybody. Before we embark, I think we should give this beauty a name. Suggestions?
The Big Turd.
The Big Rolling Turd?
In that spirit, we set forth.
I've got an ICBM coming! If there's a poop fairy, I can make a lot of money.
Yo, my mobile-homeboys, what's trippin' in the wood?
This termite belong to you?
Yo, my man said...
Don't call him...
Easy! This my man C, he small but ferocious, but you dogs, you hardcore. Where you from?
Scottsdale.
Scottsdale! In the zoner, y'all, that's a hardcore hood, but you wanna 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, 'cause he's out, boy is ou... I can't restrains him 'cause I'm conversatin' 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 Malibu, and Westwood, you know. Mallin' it like we all can, boys to mensh, pimp my Mercedes, call me back, put you on hold, you know what I'm sayin'?
Err... we gotta go.
Mm-hmm, you better, man, don't make me call my lawyer, 'cause I'll audit!
One family. Eight wheels. No brakes.
On a family vacation, no one can hear you scream.

Some reshooting was completed in Toronto during the 3rd week of January 2006. The crew reshot the end of the film (the singing part was the original ending, but Barry Sonnenfeld decided he wanted another ending and got the whole family together for the final scene. The reshoot was completed in Toronto because Robin was working on another film there at the time.)
