Hi.
My wife and I are travelling from Norway to the U.S this summer. This is our 13th time visiting and we have always been going to Texas and we always drive a regular car when we're there
This year we have decided to do something new. Texas is big and has a lot to offer, but it's about time we venture out of the state.
In the end of June we'll be picking up a c30 motor home from Cruise America in Dallas (tried to get the c25, but it was cheaper renting the c30 ), and set course for the west coast and San Francisco. We have just started looking at route options, but I don't think we will get very far the first day since we need to stock up on food etc and would like to find a place to settle in before it gets dark
So to my first series question here on the forum:
Is there anything we should now about cruising in a rental and does laws and regulations change much from state to state when it comes to camping, driving etc?
Would it be wise to buy Ezpass (not sure of the name) or similar that would cover toll charges all across the country?
We are HUGE fans of BBQ, does most RV camps allow to fire up your own grill?
Also, we don't mind doing long hauls (10-12 hour drive is no problem) and since we're about to cover over 3.000 miles I know we have to do some serious driving to make it to SF and back to Dallas in 13 days. Would you say it's more tiresome to drive a RV compared to a car?
I'm sure there's going to be a tons of questions as we start setting up our route, so I guess this is not the last time y'all will see me in here.
