Great! Now....where I can buy a Prius cheap?

Also, the actual RV spot at Mulberry is like $25 a night... so 3 nights is $75. That's getting expensive to have a rented RV for 3 night minimum added on top of the tent spot. Save your money, go buy a portable AC and suffer like the rest of us! haha

Oh you big kidder you. It can pull a thousand lbs. takes a little longer to get up to speed but after that get out of the way. It's got a 1200cc, little bigger than the P1K, lol.

So far that's is my plan "A" . Plan "B" I'm on the waiting list for a cabin. Plan "C" a Hotel. But I'll be there for sure!

Are you bringing mama and kids with you, or are you coming alone?

I am with ya - I am no glamper - I would take a cabin but a tent is fine

If I had to drive a lot I would consider one - My sister lives out in LA and If I had my brother in laws commute I would have one as he does.

I love tent camping and do it often in early spring and fall and during winter months when I'm backpacking, but tent camping in July in this climate is brutal, no BRUTAL! The nice shower, AC and bed of an RV in July is primo! As for the Prius, we do cover a lot of ground between multiple states and love the 55mpg. But sometimes only the Z71 HD will suit.

Yes, mama and kiddos.

 

[Montecresto]

Yes, mama and kiddos.

Yeah, you need the RV!

I been doing tent camping for years and I loved but with the wife and kids in July NO WAY.. That can make my trip miserable they will be complaining the whole day.

Ok guys, if @jrplaza2008 and i can drive 9 to 10 hours to ride. Then all you guys within 5or6 hrs should be able to make it!!!

And night! Night especially when you're trying to sleep and your naked on top of the sleeping bag with a damp cooling rag, and that isn't good enough. You'll want mama and those kiddos to want to do this with you again, hmm?

I'd still prefer a Passat or Jetta TDI. My wife's BMW X5 SUV awd diesel gets high 30's and it's not too shabby either.

That's what we were all saying when we went to Tennessee. I know you made that drive too... some folks think the roads only run one direction...
