We are Tom and Anne Grason from New Zealand and we have been living full time, in our 32 foot 'King Of The Road' 5th Wheel RV for the last 5 years. We tow this with a 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 and have so far traveled most of the North Island, New Zeland. We are members of the New Zealand Motorcaravan Association. Over the previous 30 years, we have traveled extensively throughout New Zealand and Australia, both in our own car and caravan, and in rental RVs.
Next year 2012 being our 40th Wedding Anniversary, we are planning a road trip across America. We plan to fly into Los Angeles then either hire or 'buy/buy back' a mid sized 4 berth motorhome, as our Sister in law, whos husband died 6 years ago, is coming with us.
We plan to drive 'Route 66' as far as Tulsa Oklahoma, then head South to New Orleans. From there we will drive to Miami Florida, then up the East Coast to New York from where we will fly home. We plan to travel for 3 Months, from 1 July - 1 October 2012.
I have been researching Companies on the net and getting prices for both options.
If there are any members out there who would be willing to hire or lease us your RV for all or part of our journey, we would be very pleased to hear from you.
As previously stated, we live full time in our own RV, we are non smokers and I was a milk tanker driver for 20 years, driving 35 Ton truck and trailer units.
We look forward to hearing from anyone who can give us any constructive criticism or advise.
Cheers,
Tom Grason
