RE: Maryland to Washington State -- best routes
You have allotted plenty of time.By staying only in FHU campgrounds you will be missing some of the best campgrounds in my opinion. But that's your choice.I suggested a route for you.If you take I-80 across Nebraska,I would highly recommend the Harold Warp Pioneer Museum in Minden,Nebraska. If you like history,old cars,trucks,motorcycles,tractors etc, they have them in spades.And they have a FHU campground on the site.

RE: Gas station guide
As far as i know,there is no such book or website that shows where you can get gas for large vehicles.It was always a concern when we had a gas vehicle. WE tried to use Flying J's as much as possible since many have separate RV islands. But they weren't always where we needed them.With the diesel we have fewer worries because we can always use the truck stops and fill up. Flying J does have an app to show you which locations have the separate RV lanes.

RE: Yellowstone 2020
You already made reservations outside the park..We stayed in the park.It cut down on driving.We came in the from West Yellowstone and I believe it is 15 miles just to get to Madison were we stayed. So that's 30 miles a day just going into and out of the park.We were there the second week of May and crowds were light. We came across a mother grizzly with 3 cubs on the road from Norris to Canyon.The weather was good,low 40's at night,high 50's to low 60's during the day. We ate at Old Faithful Inn.It is the largest log structure in the world.The lobby is huge with a fireplace rising 5 floors.Even if you don't eat there,just check out the lobby.

RE: who uses Fog lights? / Hella 500 / OEM connector->F350
Fog lights are kind of like 4 wheel drive.Better to have them and not need them than to need them and not have them. I have had them on several trucks and they are great when needed. Having said that, they only get used a few times a year.

RE: Maryland to Washington State -- best routes
I would take I 70 to I-74 then pick up Rt 36 through Missouri. Then I-29 to Rt 6 into Nebraska. Then I-80 to I-25 to I-90.Been on all the roads and they are all good.

RE: Custer SP?
WE stayed at Rafter J which is nice. But back then Custer didn't have electric. If we went again,we would stay in the park. With just 2 of us,we can go 5 days before dumping black water. If we take our showers in the bath houses,grey water isn't an issue either. Make sure you do the wild life loop and Iron Mtn Highway. Other neat things to see outside the par are Bear Country USA,the Cosmos, The Badlands and Wall Drug just for kicks.

RE: Large dog
WE have an 85 lb Labrador Retriever.She loves people and is friendly with other dogs. Most Labs are like that. She is a great traveler,sleeps most of the time when on the road.German Shepards can be great dogs if raised right and trained right. I would suggest getting a puppy and take it to obedience school where it can socialize with other dogs and people. Make sure you socialize it with little kids too.As far as scratching the floor,we have never had a problem with that. Keep their nails trimmed and you can always put a runner down in the walking area.Dogs are great companions. I like most dogs better than most people!

RE: Ready to Live on the Road and Excited
If you don't already have it,get the Senior Pass. It gets you free access to every National Park and historic site.It also gets you half off camping fees at any Federal Campground including National Parks, Army Corps of Engineer ( COE),Forest Service and BLM.

RE: More campers than parks
Go from Sunday to Thursday. Easier to get reservations and fewer people. We do it most of the time.

RE: Deceptive traffic citations
The cost of these speeding tickets is ridiculous. No penalties for illegal immigration. Just for American citizens.

RE: February Camping From Long Island?
Virginia has several state parks open year round. Four parks with developed campgrounds have full service camping available. Visit Shenandoah River, Douthat, Hungry Mother and Pocohantas. We stayed at the Shenandoah River and Pocohantas. Both are nice and both have hookups.We stayed at the first one over Christmas one year.

RE: Assateague Island
Never stayed there in December, but did in October. It was chilly for sure. But you can have some nice sunny days too. The State Park is the only one with electric and they only have one loop. Some of the loops in the NP allow generators.
