Why "myTravco?"
Selecting a name for a web site should be fairly easy. All
you have to do is make sure the name isn't already taken. Other sites
already existed that included the name Travco. From a Russian business
firm to an Egyptian travel agency, the name Travco seemed to mean everything but
motor homes on the internet. A new name search was on.
When designing the web site, I started with a mission statement
and went on to outline some goals for the site. The mission statement
isn't just about Travco motor homes or to collect everything about Travco. Sure, I
want that to be included on the site, but it was also our our personal
experiences with our Travcos. Our restorations... our travels... our
breakdowns... our humor... our obsession with this classic beast. Just
starting the site, I knew each of us would share our experiences in first
person: my restoration, my
breakdowns, my travels, my humor, and on and on. Then it hit me
"MY."
As true Travco enthusiasts, we don't talk about that thing in
the driveway or "the" Travco. We each have "MY"
Travco. The name stuck. We could all relate to each other as we each
talked about "my Travco." This personification of our motor
homes best describes our relationship with her.
