Solid Color State Maps for RVs

We're new (16' CampLite by Livin' Lite purchased March 2012). One of the first things we wanted for our TT after doing 9 states, was one of the old-style RV maps, with solid color states, to begin recording our experiences.

We, like others who posted to this thread in 2008 (http://forums.goodsamclub.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/22227326.cfm) didn't want the new "picture license plate" version, because it's less clear, at a glance, where you've traveled.

Apparently the company has stopped making the old style, but we just found one in a small, locally-owned RV parts and repair shop. So, don't give up, if you're like we were and must have the old style. Stock is still out there!

Just for completeness, here's the info from the set we purchased, although previous posts suggest the manufacturer can't help. And yes , it was the last old set the parts and repair shop had, or I would point you that direction, too. The other map sets on display were the new kind. From the package:

Walmic Corporation
P.O. Box 390451
Anza, CA 92539
(760) 327-8257

A different number is listed at this URL for customer service phone numbers. Interestingly, in 2012, RVers are still asking for the solid states:

Hope something here is helpful to others, like us, who wanted the old style.

    Ok, new to the RV world, Iam trying to find out where do you find the nice "been there" map that some folks have attached to their signatures?


    Just noticed you didn't get an answer. I don't know how to do a link, but just look on this forum's list for this heading: "Forum Technical Resources" and click the subheading: Forum Technical Support...

    and there's a permanent "Sticky" near the top of the page about Tutorials and Picture Related FAQs.

    Click that and you will find a link about ten lines down for How To on adding a "States visited map" to your signature.

  • Glad to see this post, we've been looking for one of the solid color maps! :)
  • Ours comes from him also. Nice guy, nice maps.

    Note Canada doesn't fit with USA like old maps did, but still nice.
