With the demise of both Street Atlas and Streets and Trips, there is no longer a single planning package that is worth a corn dog.
You can use any of the on-line sources to define a route for you, but as to your overnight stops and when to look for fuel, that now all has to be done on a day by day basis and only when you have good internet access.
You had best load up on paper maps and atlas books that you can draw on with your pencil and make notes about where you plan to stop and did stop.
I have been completely disappointed by Good Sams, RV Trip Wiz and others. I am currently trying to learn Furkot.com. It is almost complete, but it is still web-based and for me that make it sit at two strikes right there.
So, get out the paper and your dividers and go at it. It is a real bear to try to do any planning of a multi-thousand miles excursion on a 5" screen.
Matt - I only bitter with the industry and not Macrosquash and not Garme/Delormed specifically.
