Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / RVs / October 2005Month long RV trip to the Southwest, in Dec. Need a good checklist
This will be my first real long RV trip since i bought my class B . last year. Does anyone have a comprehensive checklist they can post ? Any specific instructions , tips that can be offered ? Thank you. There is so much to see and do in the Southwest that it's hard to know what to say without knowing your interests. Tucson and the Desert Museum, Zion, Arches, Canyonland, the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Carlsbad Caverns - Anasazi ruins like Canyon de Chelly, Aztec... if you include Nevada in the southwest, then there's Las Vegas, Valley of Fire... whatever you do, you'll not be able to do it all and you will enjoy it. My husband and I have a Class B also - if this is your first time in one, you will need to pack carefully and shop more often than in a larger rig.

Actually, when i said tips ...i was referring to packing and taking along things which i may not have thought of. But the info on Arizona you gave was good. Ive been to AZ about 8 times on vacations over the years, so, i almost feel like a native. Its a nice part of the USA. Ill be staying 'south' so i can keep warm -- leaving Illinois in Dec. it will probably be very cold so i want it warm . I have a used CoachHouse class b. that i bought last summer 2004 . Love it. Take care, Dave >Hi Judy, Thanks for the info. Actually, when i said tips ...i was >referring to packing and taking along things which i may not have >thought of. Dave, The good news is if you do forget something you aren't going where you can't buy what you forgot. Take less than you think you need. Take any prescription meds.

And, if there is somebody at the home end, a cell phone to call for what you forgot and do not want to buy. Lou I heard Paul Harvey say that if you have your prescriptions at Walgreens, they can call your "home" store and fill your prescriptions at any Walgreens in the U.S. This sounds like the perfect place for RV'ers.  SignatureJerryD(upstateNY) Take any prescription meds.

Walmart does too. Actually, you can bring a prescription bottle into any Walmart, Walgreens, CVS etc and they will fill the prescription, it doesn't have to have started in one of their chains.

They get the prescription transferred to them and fill it. We have done it all over the country. However, there are state laws that can get in the way. We had some prescriptions written in NY. When we traveled to the next state, as I recall they told us they could give us only one refill and that the prescription would be ineligible for more refills anywhere after that. A pharmacy tech in Indiana told me recently that every pharmacist in the country knows about New York's peculiar regs about prescriptions. There are probably other restrictive state laws of that kind out there, so plan ahead.

We have ours filled all the time when traveling at Walgreen's, Rite Aid, Wallmart, or other large chain pharmacies. Not a problem. Don in Tracy, Calif.

Any > specific instructions , tips that can be offered ? Thank you. Sunday clothes. Book of Mormon. Cell phone. Case of motor oil. Tips: Do a Mapquest or Google before you go. Plan your route. Keep your cell phone charged. Don't try to push for speed, that's when stuff breaks. Check all the fluids every day. Pray three times a day, and bless your food. SignatureChristopher A. Young Do good work. It's longer in the short run but shorter in the long run. . . > This will be my first real long RV trip since i bought my class B . last > year.
