There are many bad to great trip route planners. Some have limited to excellent camp ground selections but do not go into great detail about the campground - perhaps giving you a web URL.

What I like to do when I plan my route - plan what city/area for my overnight stop, then get on campgroundreviews.com and look for either a particular name of a camp ground or what is available where I am stopping. Just another helper along the way.....

Enjoy - planning is half the fun!

I downloaded a copy of "RVTRIPWIZARD" it seems to fit my requirements, I have been surprised at the limited choices in Oklahoma and Kansas, don't want to spend the whole trip on interstates, after finding a cg at my travel range I then look at ratings and reviews, that seems to rule out several choices, sites too small, or unlevel, bad interior roads and unfriendly staff seems to fit a lot of cg's west of Oklahoma City or near Witchita. But the software works for me. Thanks for your help.

I reached out to Delorme, they say that since they were purchased by Garmin there are no plans for SA 2016, although they leave the possibility of something in the future.

I have also been using RV Parky and planning all my routes with it. I knew that you could export a GPX file from the ap but didn't know what to do with it. Kudos to YouTube and finding out that the GPX file can be copied to my Garmin RV760.

Just copied a four leg trip I planned on RVParky to my 760 and all four legs are there. The GPS shows the four destinations and allows me to select where I am going for the day. Pretty simple once I figured it out.
