Any tips on cross country stops along I-80 would be appreciated - we will be trying to get there pretty quickly in time for our furniture.
Any and all advice welcome!

If you can find a day/night before you go, you should take it to a campground and do a hookup and trial run.....just to make sure all your systems are working. We planned a trip some years ago for a month with a new Freedom Elite we had back then. Took it for a trial run to a nearby campground and found there was no hot water. With some teeth gnashing, we got it fixed under warranty before we left the following week. WIthout that trial run, we would have been on the road trying to find a dealer who could fix it. You'll find with the RV industry, it's not like a car....hardly ever can you call them and tell them you need such and such fixed..."can you do it in the next day or so?"
