When I get mine I plan to go to national parks, state parks, and restaurants from the show Diners, Drive-ins, & Dives. I want to dig for sapphires in Montana and eat fresh lobster in Maine. I want to visit old growth forests in the PNW (whatever’s is left following the fires), take art workshops from the Savanna College of Art & Design, and roller skate at any old rink I can find along the way. Oh, and museums. I can hardly wait to see all kinds of museums.
Stay within a day or two drive from home for the first 30-60 days…to better find out what’s going to break down. Do the ME, VT, NH route before it gets too cold.
Canadian border just opened, head north until it gets cold, then south
Hey fellow MA E350 driver! We are currently in the last week of 6 National Parks! We have been to Mammoth Cave, Gateway Arch, Great Sand Dunes, Mesa Verde, Zion, and about to arrive in Badlands. All of these parks are amazing. Mammoth was way cooler than I thought, def take a tour inside the cave. Great Sand Dunes has the most varied terrain in one location I’ve ever seen. Zion is nuts, the Narrows is awesome. I went up to Angels landing and after watching people go belly to belly over the chain, I left and went up the west rim trail and the view from there is outrageous. Mesa Verde, which we did not plan to go to but ended up at was incredible. There are so many buildings under the caves and to see the changes in their architecture over the years was really cool. That park does a really nice job with its layout and how it makes you cover their history.
I’ve used mine as a ski chalet(most ski resorts don’t give you any problem if you park in the back of their lots), you can drive it out on the National seashore(wash the underneath after!), Assateague Island in Maryland is a great place, we drive up to the white mountains on a Friday night crash in a parking lot and hiking the next morning.
Really just use it. Take it everywhere you can, see everything you can. The country is a crazy place and almost everyone is cool despite what politics and the media try to portray!
Have fun and see you out there!!
Pick a direction (N, W, E or S) then look at you atlas, (because I’m sure you have one) Then stay away from interstates and head towards national forest/ parks. That’s what I did.
Just got my first one today. Same thing, but a 28’. Have wife and two young girls. Thinking of state parks here in MN, but then would love to head east.
Congrats
Oh hey, one more thing bruh… google “workcamping” if you need some foldin’ money
