Plan Your Route
There is nothing like the freedom of pointing your RV in a direction and driving just to see where the road takes you.While that type of free spirit is exciting and can bring you to truly unexpected places, it is wise to plan your route in advance. You do not need to strictly adhere to the plan, but knowing what is ahead and where you can get what you need or gas up your RV is essential for safety.
Some key things to look for on your route should include the following:
- Know where RV parks with your desired services and amenities are located.
- Ensure you will have access to gas stations at incremental points along your route. Pro tip: Carry a gas can that is large enough to accommodate your RV’s needs until you can find a station, just in case.
- Always research road conditions and determine whether any routes you intend to take can handle the weight of your specific RV. In addition, check to see if there are shoulders on the roads or tight turns or switchbacks that you may not be comfortable navigating.
- If you are traveling in or toward areas that experience wildfires, learn how to find local sources of information and understand warnings before you go.
- Research parking options before you leave home. If you plan to visit a popular tourist spot along the way, check first to see if they have ample space or alternate options for your RV.
Prepare for your next RV adventure by being prepared. With some planning, you can use these travel hacks to help alleviate stress and make your vacation the best ever. Find a great place to park your RV for a few days, meet kindred RV spirits, and let the open road take you to new destinations.
