I just spoke with the AT&T folks and they confirmed no coverage up there.
They said that since our phones were "off contract" we could go online and get them unlocked, then try to find SIM cards that work in Canada. Yeah, right.
That settles it. I'm NOT going to drive the rig to some place where I have no cell phone communication, and no web access other than depending on some business we might be able to limp to should we have an issue with the rig. I belong to all of the road services, and have spent a bazllion bucks getting and keeping the rig in top shape, but you just never know. All it takes is one stray moose to derail the best-maintained RV.
As an aircraft pilot, former skydiver, and amateur racer of just about everything with a motor, I am NOT naturally risk averse, But, I also am not a big fan of being at the mercy of the Canadian equivalent of the "Good Ol' Boys Saloon and RV Repair" in Whatchamacallit, Nova Scotia.
As a young guy, traveling by myself in a car or on a motorcycle, armed with just a map (no GPS), I went everywhere. Driving the RV with my wife onboard is a different matter.
So, I guess spending July in Maine will have to do for our northeastern experience.
Nova Scotia will just be viewed through the eyes of those who have been there before.
