Welcome to RTA!
Could you please tell us roughly where in Maine you are?
Services are few and far between on US-93/NV-318 between Twin Falls and Las Vegas. Twin Falls would be a good overnight, fill your gas tank. There's services in Wells and Ely, fill your tank in Ely...
Would that be Hertz?
My nephew found this out the hard way. He bought a brand new 31 foot RV trailer to live in while working on a construction site, with plans to keep it for family use. The first time it rained it...
If you are in fact from Groton, avoid Hartford by taking CT-9 to Middletown, then CT-66 to I-691 to I-84 if you are taking my route.
I-90 is almost always an easier drive across the Great Plains and Rockies than either I-80 or I-70. That's why I suggested you head north on I-29 to get to I-90.
I can make a suggestion for a route to take. This route avoids the majority of tolls and large metro areas, and keeps you away from possible lake effect snow. It's also 100% Interstate highway...
What about UT-12 from Capitol Reef to Bryce?
It's not very likely that I-5 would close, but they may require chains unless you have a 4wd/AWD vehicle with "traction tires" and you still have to carry chains for at least 1 axle. If they are...
I don't think I'd want to be out on US-97 in bad weather.
Welcome to RTA!
I'd take Interstate highways/freeways as much as possible. Take I-5 to Portland to I-84, using I-205 to bypass downtown. Take that to I-82 to US-395, go through Kennewick, to...
Just before you get to Salmon Lake, there are a few lodges and motels in Seeley Lake. Salmon Lake only has a campground.
Do you want to leave Glacier via the west entrance, or take the Going To The Sun Road to the east entrance?
Pat, the event is Sunday, not Saturday, if that makes a difference.
I just installed Zoom on my laptop and tested it out, ready to go.
Rick, if you have a laptop that's not an antique, it probably has a built-in webcam. If you have a smartphone with a front...

I would completely avoid CA-299 and CA-139, or any other roads that cross the Coastal Range and northern Sierras in the winter unless you know for a fact they are clear and dry. Take I-5 to US-97. ...
Gallup is not a good place to stop with COVID. It's one of the hardest hit communities anywhere. Last May, they did a total shutdown and barricaded the highway exits it was so bad. Holbrook should...
If you want specific recommendations on the I-8/I-10/I-17/I-40/I-25 route:
Take I-8 to Gila Bend. Take AZ-85 (4 lane divided) to I-10. Go east to Loop-303, go north to I-17. Overnight in...
If you take the route that has already been recommended, you can cut off 170 miles by taking US-84 between I-25 and I-40. This is a relatively flat and straight 2 lane highway through a very rural...
Lifey, don't you mean US-20?
The Subaru Ascent is the largest Subaru vehicle. It's a 3 row SUV, officially considered a midsize. AWD is standard on all Subarus, there are other AWD's available in that size class.
AWD could be beneficial if you are going to be living in such an area, not just visiting it. The Sienna is the only minivan available with AWD, but most crossovers and SUV's have it available as an...
