  1. I do not know of such an app although if there was one it would definitely be helpful. We generally use either Love's Travel Stops, Flying J Travel Plazas, or KOA campgrounds. We have the apps for these and almost all have propane services to fill your onboard tank or cylinders as needed.
  2. I would suggest that you look into loading the KOA app on your phone or obtaining one of their KOA Guides. They have a substantial number of RV parks/campgrounds that are big rig friendly and open all year along I-10, I-20, I-40 and I-70, and I-80. Some even north of I-80. I would also suggest reserving a few days ahead as you determine your route. I know that KOA's are not for everyone and can be a bit more expensive however we've found them to be reliable, conveniently located and often open in the winter when many others are not.
  3. FYI, there was a survey done earlier this summer which asked about keeping FMCAssist, the magazine, and the rally's. I received a link which I think was sent to all members. This was likely the source of their information.
  4. Guess if the dues are going up to $99 October 1st, I better renew now for a few years to save myself a few $$'s!
  5. Check your email. FMCA sent out an email yesterday to all members announcing the name change and the continuation of the FMCAssist program. By the way, they also sent our an email several weeks ago saying that the magazine would only be produced 6 times a year.
  6. Personally I always go with the manufacturers recommended oil.
  7. WE use Loves Travel Stops often. Download the Loves Travel app. Get 10 cents off a gallon of gas automatically. No maximum. We also use Pilot Flying J app, although i think its only 5 cents off a gallon
  8. I agree with you Paul. On a whole that negativity of the postings focused on FMCA in general are extremely disappointing and I'm sure the reason that many members do not participate. The negative few seem to think that they know and could do better which makes one wonder why they don't go out on their own and start their own RV Association and forum? Just saying,,,,
  9. Yes! The following camping members-only discounts are available for members. New FMCA members receive the gift of a one-year participation in the KOA Rewards program. FMCA members receive an exclusive discount on any new Passport America membership. FMCA members receive a 15% discount on any new Harvest Host membership. FMCA members receive a 15% discount on any new Boondockers membership. Enjoy!
  10. Keep in mind that there are lots of NASCAR tracks that have great infield camping as long as you stay in the higher priced, reserved spot, lots. Pocono and Darlington come to mind.
  11. MIS is one of the tracks that I would definitely avoid infield camping at unless it's in the "Family Friendly - enforced quiet time" area. When they say "Party Camping", they are not kidding and it's pretty much an understatement. The parties go on for 3 days, 24 hrs a day, with super loud music, heavy drinking, trash and beer cans everywhere, etc. We were there once, would never go back. There are a few private campgrounds across the road from the track that might be better...
  12. Joined primarily for the magazine and travel assist. Now we're excited to try out all the other benefits!
  13. Winnebago provides weight limits on attached ladders. Also pretty sure they are attached to more than just fibreglass, likely steel brackets. On my Class A the weight limit is 250 lbs. Pretty sure it could handle a 25 lb stepladder.
  14. Depends on your RV. Some have weight ratings on the ladder provided by the manufacturer that indicate how much they can handle.
  15. Sounds like a power issue. Do you have a battery disconnect switch somewhere? Is it possible that it was inadvertently turned on?
