Before retirement we looked at joining for a couple of our 2-3 week trips but did not find enough parks on the way or at our destination to make it worth it. Now that we are retired and spend 1/2 of the year on the road it is definitely worth it.
Saw where some replies say that destinations may not have PA in the area. One place that does is Branson, MO. Definitely saved us money there. While it was not one of the closest parks to Arches NP, we stayed at a PA park in Moab.
Just do the research before leaving on a trip and see if there are PA parks that you can use. We do make sure that we check RVparkreviews.com on all parks that we stay at. Some PA parks we will not stay at because of bad reviews. Of course you have to be careful about the reviews as well. We stayed at several PA parks on our trip to the Grand Canyon with just middle of the road reviews. Several were places to just hookup over night without any other amenities. They were just what we wanted. A decent safe place to spend the night.
