Question Good trip planner

[Joe Hogan]

Looking for advice on a good trip planner. Must have a trip radius feature. I like to plan for minimum and maximum leg lengths. I find in certain parts of the country longer legs are easily done and in more congested areas, shorter legs are better.

RV Trip Wizard x2 as @Neal said. It will plan fuel stops etc based on input which I find to be fairly accurate. You also get their gps app and some other features for the annual price.

We use RVParky, not as intuitive as others but has gotten us out and back many times.

I have always used RV Parky as well. Mainly just to find campgrounds in the area we are planning to stay. However after reading this thread, I might give RV Trip Wizard a look going forward.

We use RVParky to locate most of our possible camping sites. Every so often when I don't find what I am looking for on a certain leg of a trip I will look at a couple other apps (Boondocking and GoodSams). When I find the campground I think I'll use I check the area by switching my phone mapping to satellite view. This shows me the layout of not only the roads leading to the campground, but the entrance and the sites.

We route through carplay using one of a couple different real time iphone mapping apps. If any of our routes are taking us off major interstates then I'll consult the trucker's atlas to ensure we will fit.

I have yet to find a single source app that I feel totally confident in. Like FL-Joe, we lay a base route out, find camp grounds that are candidates, and then use multiple sources to verify access, safety, space, safety, etc... Did I mention safety?!

Finding the RV Travel Wizard an excellent, comprehensive tool for planning. It is an all in one planning tool. One feature that I now will use extensively is the low clearance filter.
This filter will keep me from getting off at an exit surrounded with low clearences:
