All ActivityMost RecentMost LikesSolutionsGasoline Credit CardsI thought I was so smart when I got a BP Credit Card and earned fuel perks. It worked well for several years when we traveled in our motorhome east of the Mississippi. I earned many discounts and free tanks of gas. This winter we traveled from Ohio to Arizona and in my planning I figured we could get 25 free tanks of fuel with the perks we had saved. Since there was a great deal of snow when we left, we went straight south and then started west on I-10. Much to my suprise, I haven't seen a single BP since we crossed the Mississippi River. Is there another credit card out there that can earn fuel that will work all over the country? We plan to return to Arizona again next year and I would like to save on fuel. Your ideas will certainly be appreciated.Re: What apps are good to have?I traded it in and they wiped it clean. Thank you for all of your help :)What apps are good to have?I just updated my cell phone and lost all of my apps. I remember that I had Good Sam, RV Parky, Sanidumps, and KOA. I think I had more but can't remember what they were. What are some good and useful apps that are out there? Any help will be appreciated.Who flat tows a Ford Explorer ?We tow a 2013 Subaru Crosstrek. My wife hates it because a Subaru has to have a standard transmission to be towed. We are looking at a 2017 Ford Explorer. Does anyone have experience towing one and what are your impressions?Re: Mississippi River RoadWe are planning to travel the entire River from Lake Itasca to New Orleans. (One of the advantages of being retired)Mississippi River RoadWe are planning to travel the Mississippi River Road this summer. Is there one good place to find information or do we need to contact each state? Do you have any travel hints or must not miss spots? Any memories or thoughts to share?Re: Lake Erie CampingWe recently moved to Lorain County and enjoy driving along the lake. We have heard of campgrounds on the islands but need to know about the cost of getting there by ferry and the limit of our length. We are members of Coast to Coast and Good Sam, so using them is a possibility. Hopefully with kids back to school we'll find some open campsites. All of your ideas are appreciatedLake Erie CampingDoes anyone have a recommendation for a campground on Lake Erie in Ohio? We have a 31 ft. Class C motorhome.2013 Subaru Crosstrek battery dies when towedI replaced a 2004 Saturn Ion as a toad with a 2013 Subaru Crosstrek. When I started towing the Saturn I had the same problem and quickly found that I could avoid it by pulling a particular fuse. What can I do to stop the Crosstrek's battery from draining when it is towed? Is it as easy as pulling a certain fuse or something else? Any help will be appreciated. ThanksFalling off step from rear of RV to kitchen areaAfter over 40 year of RV'ing in everything from a conversion van to a Class A we downsized to a Class C with bunk beds to accomidate our dogs and grandkids. The only problem is that twice my wife has forgotten about the step from the rear to the kitchen and fallen down, once necessitating a trip to the emergency room. I have thought about building a little ramp and just keeping the curtain closed as a reminder of the step. Knowing that only the most intelligent people read these forums, I'm asking for ideas that have been successful for you. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
