We have planned some of our trips around using FlyingJ/Pilots for an over night. Dinner or breakfast in the chain restaurant attached, gas up the RV and back on the road. We check in advance for locations with RV parking. If none available we call the location to see if they have room for us. It has worked well for us so far.
Many states do not allow over night parking at the rest areas and although we've discussed staying at a Cracker Barrel, I was very uncomfortable the night we slept in the parking lot of the camper repair shop (we were invited to stay by the manager). We were the only ones in the parking lot.
We've discussed how to handle the long stretch from home to Little Rock, the real "start" of our fall trip. It is really hard on DH to drive 300 miles several days in a row. We will probably find a campground and spend two nights to break it up and give him a rest.
