go before the snow falls. You don’t want to have to go up and down the grades on snowy roads. I agree the place in Coburg is good. There’s a nice rv park at the same exit opposite side of the freeway. Premier resorts. The food at the truck stop at the stoplight is really good if you want a place close by.
Either before or after. I definitely do not believe in operating a DP in snow. I had my fill of that fun in my Bay Star, spending some time regaining control on I-80 in Feb in Wyoming, and if it had been a rear engine coach I’m sure I would have wrecked it.

On our way home during out last trip about a week ago, we stopped for a few days at a primitive mountain CG south of Elko - Thomas Canyon - to decompress a bit. It‘s very nice, quiet, with beautiful fall colors, and of course, high enough elevation for rapid weather changes.

The two pics were taken about 30 minutes apart and the quick weather change caused us to do an emergency bug-out and head for lower elevations. Forecast was for light rain showers mid-day:

We also want to go check out some sites for sale at Pacific Shores in Newport.
 
Rich...I've heard the Phoenix shop is closed. Plus, if you don't go to Coburg you will pay an additional $350+ in shipping. ANY shop that wants you to measure your windshield does NOT know RV windshields IMHO. It's a move to transfer liability to the buyer I think. Obviously your windshield is usable right now, so plan a trip to Coburg. It's really not that far for you. Drop it off and drive to Newport for the night. I know I sound "pushy" but I spent a long time investigating RV windshield replacement and ALL things led to Coburg. Enough said I guess 😉
 
x2 on Newport.

Actually you sound “spot on”! Also save on sales tax that way. And since I just had $9000 in well and pump expenses, it will ease the pain to put of off a little longer.

And icing on the cake would be the trip up the coast. A beautiful day here in Netarts Bay Oregon. You will not come this far north but probably as far as Florence. Three Rivers Casino in Florence provides one free night of 50 amp service plus they give you a $10.00 (per person) start for your gambling pleasure. When we were there two years ago, their one arm bandits provided us with enough for dinner (and the food was pretty good) plus camping the next night at Lighthouse Cover in Crescent City.

Safe travels
