the only thing I'll add is to second Leon's advice to call ahead if you plan to stay in a commercial campground or any public campground with hook ups. We've called ahead as early as 9:00 AM and arrived to find an almost empty campground and also arrived to find we have the last spot and they are turning people away. You just never know. It's especially important if you are driving long days.

It always amazes me to see $3-500K diesel-pusher motorhomes spending the night at WalMart. I've read that all types of RV's depreciate (on average) about 2% of current value per month in the early years of ownership so some of them are losing as much as $300.00 per day to depreciation while sweating $25.00 for a campground. Then again, I suppose the 40 footers may not fit in some campgrounds.
