Good Sam Trip Planner

I have come to rely on the Good Sam Trip Planner. It is being removed from the site next month with a new tool coming soon after. Not sure how long the gap will be.

Question: Are there other trip planning tools out there? Would be interested in your thoughts.

Attached link is by far the best mapping/trip planning software available. This 'software' along with a few campground locator apps like 'Park Advisor' is all you need!

Kaspersky is blocking the site, saying it is a malicious site. :O I tried typing mapshop. com and got the same thing. Dunno...what's up.

I used RV Parky to plan trip from Alabama to Montana this August. Easy to use

Good Sam is OK but it's driven with bias and directs you to their supporters and advertisers, eliminating many great service providers. I've found Park Advisor to be the most inclusive of all. Easy to navigate, real reviews and simple to use app. I don't use any trip planning software. For me, half the fun is planning and researching things along the way, as you route yourself along.
