I'm working with 3 apps now, RV Trip Wizard, AllStays Camp&RV, and Toad Trippers.

I like RV Trip Wizard but darn, it's full of bugs and slow as molasses. It has a ton of neat stuff and can provide you with a pretty close estimate of what your trip is going to cost. (If that's important)

Road Trippers looks pretty cool, like a mini version of RV Trip Wizard. Best of all, the display is fast. Jury is still out on it but I think it has potential.

AllStays is a completely different app as it's not a trip planner, and they tell you that right up front. But to be honest, I'm not sure a trip planner is what I really need anyway.

On another note, I did some research on Good Sam club this AM. Was quite excited about the services, especially for such small yearly fees. But then I read the reviews on Consumer Reports and decided that I'll take a wait-and-see position on it.

So as it stands at this time, I'll leave here this coming Wednesday about 6:00 AM EST and I'll meet the seller that evening at the Manatee Hammock Park in Titusville, FL.

I'll hang out at the RV park for a day, get a temporary registration from the FL DMV, and head out for NC on Friday AM. I plan to drive for 5 hours and then stay at Reed Bingham State Park that night. It'll be a short day but I want to learn how to set up my rig and it'll be fun to hang out at the RV site and visit with my new (soon to meet) friends.

BTW, I Googled how to set up an RV and found a pretty straight forward, but detailed list of what to do and how to do it. I'll print that and take it with me. I hate that I'm going to look like the "Newbie" when I arrive at the RV Site, but hey, somebody's got to do it...

Stay tuned, the adventure is about to begin!
