It's what a true vacation is all about, for us. Happy travels!
You sound like the same as us, we always use a campground. When I get to be too cheap to use the campground I guess I'll quit camping.
I travel numerous times a year, I've seen the view along the way before, i just want to get there, I'm not sight-seeing along the way. I start out very early and drive till, usually, midnight or later.
I'm just far to considerate to drive through a campground full of people on vacation at midnight and again around 6am.
Besides just being considerate, stopping where I do means I can grab coffee, a bite to eat as I drive and I have gas stations close by. I can also stop where I want, not where there's a campground, which given that I travel all year-round might hours apart.
