USA RV maps

I see all Rvs with the US map on them and the states that have been visited. We are having a family debate about our RV map and are seeking ideas from more experienced travelers.

The wife says we have to see most of a state before we can place the state sticker on our map. We recently made a 3 week trip up the east side of Wisconsin and down the west side of Michigan. No stickers since we didn’t see most of the state. I say it has to be a destination and staying 2 nights at the campground. My feeling is just because you have the state sticker doesn’t mean that you can’t go back to that state.

What are some of the ideas out there used for placing the sticker on your US RV map? And I do understand that life is much easier if I just agreed with her, so don’t tell her I asked anybody.

  • My criteria is; If we go to the state to see something and we put our feet on the ground then we put the sticker on. If we are just transiting through the state and do not take time to explore any of it then no sticker.
    I would hate to use the criteria of "see most of the state" for Texas, Alaska or Montana
  • We are full-time and decided at the beginning that we would only mark states that we stayed overnight at least 1 night in our rv. There are many states that we have been in, but not with the RV, so they don't count yet.
