Noticed you were not getting much in the way of advice, IMHO the issue is the question is too BIG. Narrow down the trip to smaller pieces - Areas or time periods - be more specific in what you are after and lets see if you can get the info you need. BOL,

With NO stops you might average 52mph - but that will not happen so BEST case will be to multiply your AAA hours by 1.30 - 1.40 (or divide the MPH by to see your MPH- 46-51? but you will quickly find your spot. Couple years back I drove 4 vehicles from Denver to Annapolis stopping only at the...

For the most part - you will be fine - BUT, just have an option if the weather is bad, Maybe not making it to DC if a storm is predicted. For the most part from the Carolinas south you will be safe. Orlando and Disney first? then up the Coast to Daytona Beach - Can drive on the beach, then get...

Just one more thought on the drive out, is it possible to make it to the Rockies/Colorado by the last week of September? if so you could be rewarded with the Golden Aspen in the passes. https://lynn.smugmug.com/Travel/Colorado-Mountains-and-Aspens/i-tsVRkXg We try to time it so as to be in these...

Fairgrounds - St Vrain off I-25 - if they are both full there is a small park in the city, forget the name - and if still no space then Lyons has a city park with 6-8 spaces just up the Road, Enjoy the new Coach. Best of luck,

Am I worried for no reason? YES But you will still have crowds - you could go later - But your plan will work just be ready to travel early and late hiking during the noon hours....... it will be AWESOME!!

I-70 is my selection from your options but - I travel from Annapolis to Denver often and will take I-70 to I-74 to I-72 to Hannibal and then Rt 36 straight to Denver - little shorter and just as good a road (Till COlorado) change of scenery and easy drive then drop down either Rt 50 or Rt 160 to...

Leadville, Colorado - Shorts and Sweaters all summer long - Campgrounds - National Forest - boondocking - just about perfect for cool crisp summer nights. JMHO,

Three months - September - October and November are the three best months of the Year to be in your RV. http://www.rvforum.net/SMF_forum/Smileys/default/grin.gif I'd look at spending the first month getting to the Northeast - maybe I-15 to I-70 see a little of the Rockies for a couple of weeks...

If I can't find a CG I'd ask the Ranger - the only time we have ever had an issue was many years ago in Yellowstone , didn't have a reservation and asked the ranger he sent us to what he called overflow for campers who were self sufficient, it was a horse stables - we backed up to a stream and...

You'll have no issue on the shorter route - Page is the first destination and then the decision is back up into Utah, or down through the more scenic drive to Jacobs Lake, then on to St George. if I were you I'd catch the North Rim and take the drive through the mountains to Jacob Lake, just...

Just put a rubber band in place of the spring,  to hold tension, drive home and repair there. ;D :o

Sort of sums it up - basically just fuel and spark to make it run, so Clean the source of the fuel if it has been sitting, and I suggest (Often to my own neglect) to shut off the fuel and run the carb dry, then the varnish will not mess up the carb, This is much more prevalent now with the Bio...

It's a great drive - fear - no not really - I mean you made it to Colorado so you could see the Rockies. The only way to see them is to Hike - Drive - or stare from the foot hills. So just Do IT, you will overcome the fear mainly because of the Beauty and the speed - it is usually so crowded...

We? just two of "you"  -  figure 250 - 300 miles a day and plot it out. Mt Rushmore and the Black Hills are not really a two week destination, IMHO. Bad lands are just a drive through so No Days required, Mt Rushmore is a day (Actually best at dusk to see the whole thing) Then a day for the...
