Hello to all, My family and I are getting ready to take the trip of a lifetime for us, We are a family of 4, Myself my wife and 2 special needs Adult children, allthough i'm only 49 I am retired, not by choice but by an on job accedent that left me disabled 4 years ago. SOO we are going to buy a Class A motorhome leave Maryland and see America the beautiful. Our plans are to skirt the upper states from Maryland to Montana, Yellowstone is the main point of interest during this leg. then follow the Rockies down to Nevada then back towards Florida stopping by Branson and Memphis. We plan to take 2-3 months so you would think we would have lots of time to see the US. If antone here has ideas of things we should take in along the way let us know. As we shall share our experences with all that will listen, So now I'm looking for that right Motorhome to get us there and keep us safe. I'm strugling with the classic Gas vs Diesel. everyone has an opinion and I try to hear them all. WE can only afford a use unit 50K is our limit. but I think we will find the right 1 with Gods help....Jeff...

Welcome ....Your trip sounds great...Ready for my suggestions...Fun spot.."The Field Of Dreams" Dyersville Iowa....Movie set. and the "Corn Palace " Mitchell So. Dakota. Check out the web site. www.roadsideamerica.com there are so many wierd and wonderful things to see that are not "real" tourist traps I don't know if 3 months is enough.
