Savannah to Panama city beach- which road is best?
My Question is - is it better to go down to I 10 or take the other way thru GA, the GOOG says from I 95 take GA 82 to GA 84 to Valdosta. We normally take I-10 and stop in Lake city to visit family but this year we are trying to possibly get right to Panama City Beach from Skidaway Island. Not looking for the scenic route- Just want to get to the beach and away from the rain here in maryland!! We'll be making the drive on a tuesday. Wondering if the roads are more than 1 or 2 lane, speed limits, lights?? Not sure if it will save us time, 1st option is 414 miles, 2nd is 374. Thanks as always for any help...1.2KViews0likes5CommentsRe: Buying SUV and Trailer at the same time - what to get?
We towed a 25' sunline with a 4runner for a couple years. the trailer weighs @ 5500 (loaded), that was all we thought we could tow based on our car specs. It was not fun sometimes on the highway (with semi trucks) and in wind. Even with the weight distributing hitch we had a lot sway. So the weight and tow capacity of vehicle will matter more depending on where and how far you plan to drive. (local? or all over the country) We now have a big truck (f350) and will probably get a 5th wheel one day. We bought the truck so we could upgrade the trailer later. But with the big truck we don't even notice any sway... You should go to your local RV dealer and look at the ones they have that would be light enough for you now. Once you know what you can tow now then you can decide if you want a larger vehicle and a larger trailer later. Once you camp a while you will find you may want other options on your Rv that did not seem important at first. Have fun looking and shopping... there is so much out there!!355Views0likes0Comments
