Good Sam trip planner

Enhancement suggestion:
When we are taking a multi-day trip I select campgrounds based on time and mileage from the previous day's stop.
This entails guessing the time & mileage along the route, selecting a campground, adding it to the trip, checking the route for the time and distance, deleting the campground from the trip if not acceptable, then rinse and repeat.
I suggest that the time and mileage from the last CAMPGROUND (not other POIs) on the route be displayed as part of the campground or POI info before adding to the trip.
Alternatively, display the time and mileage from the last CAMPGROUND as well as the time and mileage from the last turn on the turn-by-turn instructions. This would help in estimating where to search for a campground.

  • I don't know why you all are wasting your time with this trip planner. There is no evidence there will be any more enhancements, besides, there are other trip planners out there that are far superior to this one. I used the previous version religiously, but this is garbage.
  • I use mapdeveloper to measure distances from one stopping point to another along my route until I get to the minimum and maximum distances. I use that to find the location where I start checking campgrounds along the min & max area. It's a second step outside GS trip planner but it works.
  • Not too much on the new trip planner. If they are still working on it , hadn't seen any improvement on it in awhile.
  • I made a similar proposal before. And a grid in mileage for next campsites.

    I have not checked and I was homebound this winter.

    Anyone got an update about Good Sam's trip planner which was then still under development?
