RE: Recommendations for a a route from PA to CO avoiding IL
Don't worry about traveling thru IL. There's a lot of BS on the internet repeated by people who don't have a clue about IL law. IL firearm laws are not as onerous as some of these ill-informed internet firearm 'experts' portray.
As long as you have a valid CCW from your home state you can have a loaded firearm in your vehicle while traveling thru IL.
Here's IL's statute:
430 ILCS 66/40
(e) Nothing in this Act shall prohibit a non-resident from transporting a concealed firearm within his or her vehicle in Illinois, if the concealed firearm remains within his or her vehicle and the non-resident:
(1) is not prohibited from owning or possessing a firearm under federal law;
(2) is eligible to carry a firearm in public under the laws of his or her state or territory of residence, as evidenced by the possession of a concealed carry license or permit issued by his or her state of residence, if applicable; and
(3) is not in possession of a license under this Act.
If the non-resident leaves his or her vehicle unattended, he or she shall store the firearm within a locked vehicle or locked container within the vehicle in accordance with subsection (b) of Section 65 of this Act.
Thanks for the helpful info.
That should do it for this thread.
OP - You can message me if you'd like the thread reopened. Otherwise, it looks to me like you got the info you're looking for.

RE: Screen wall options
Anyone install a screen wall from Amazon? I have tried to get one from the Dealer, from Forest River, and from another RV Dealer and the lack of assistance is intolerable. I also contacted Top Stitch, they said they would get back to me with pricing, over a week ago. I have decided to simply buy one off Amazon, they are also cheaper. The reviews look good but, nothing on youtube, nothing in forums (that I can find through the search). I would think this to be a popular topic.....
This doesn't exactly answer your question, but I initially had bad luck when I called the factory for our hauler, but once I asked them for the name & number of their approved parts dealer things improved right away. I've had great luck with our parts dealer and even visited them in Elkhart when I was back there and needed to replace a fender.
As far as Amazon goes though, I'd be nervous about buying something like this from them. It won't be an Amazon item, so you might have trouble with returns if the screen doesn't fit.
The screen wall is a great thing to have though. We only use ours 2-3 times a year, but it's fantastic when we use it. Just make sure it always retracts all the way up before you drive any tall toys into the garage. Also, if your ramp has mounts for the patio rails, the mounts will destroy the screen if it's even down by an inch or so.
Good luck!

RE: Covid 19 impact on interstate travel?
azdryheat - When you make such bellicose posts, you can't be surprised by the negative responses.
I don't think anyone attacked you though. We just disagreed.
In my case, I turned your own language back on you so you could see how odd it looked. I thought your "silly" comment was...silly.
You dish it out pretty thick though, so don't be surprised when you get some pushback. If the reactions feel like attacks, then maybe consider dialing back your statements a little and see if the tone of the responses changes as well.

RE: Madison, WI to Badlands and back - best route?
Consider heading for Theodore Roosevelt NP, South Unit, in Medora North Dakota. Check for openings. Take a Ranger tour and find out why the Bison and Prairie Dogs get along so well.
Stay at the Municipal Campground that has a pool.
It's really nice there.
Tank up before you get there. We had to drive almost all the way to Montana to find diesel last fall.

RE: New Mexico 'Quarantine" Requirements
We're currently in NM. Overhead signs say 14 day quarantine for visitors and masks required or pay fine. They don't define what a visitor is and there is no enforcement anywhere I can see. Been on the 40, 25, and 10 and cops are non-existent today. Guess it's the honor system.
That's right. I hope you'll be honorable and continue through NM without spending the night unless you plan to self quarantine for 14 days.

RE: Onboard generators
#A for me with both of my toy haulers.
A couple of questions for you:
1. Do you dry camp?
If yes, then you'll need a generator.
2. Do you run your AC much?
Again, you'll need a gen.
Having said that, if you're starting scratch and trying to economize, you could apply those same funds to a good solar system, four batteries, and a portable gen.
Since we added solar, we rarely run our gen. We run it for about 20 minutes before bedtime if we've been sloppy with our power usage during the day. We also run it any time we're using the air conditioners.
Happy shopping!

RE: Covid 19 impact on interstate travel?
Also, who's going to regulate, moderate, or even notice if someone isn't following their silly rules?
I recon the silly people of New Mexico would prefer that you kept your silly self out of their silly state.
As the father of a silly doctor who practices in that silly state, I don't appreciate your silly attitude.
They've been slammed harder than most states. As their next-door neighbor, you should show them a little respect and honor their orders. Sure, you can get away with it, but you should behave more honorably and do the right thing because it's the right thing to do, silly.
And as for enforcement, do you really want them to have to militarize their state to ensure that people like you adhere to their restrictions? Just respect them and comply, or hammer that skinny pedal on the right and keep driving through their state as quickly as you can.

RE: Covid 19 impact on interstate travel?
No restrictions so far on our trip from De. to New Mexico, we use our masks and social distance as much as possible, have not eaten out unless outside tables. Some campgrounds bath houses are closed and then some are not, have seen pools open. We just try to check each state where we are heading before we arrive to know what to expect.
New Mexico currently has a mandatory 14 day quarantine for people entering the sate from other states unless they're passing through.
New Mexico residents returning from out of state are required to quarantine at home for 14 days. Out of state residents coming to New Mexico are required to quarantine themselves for the first 14 days of their visit.
Unless you're planning to stay in NM for more than 14 days (with the first 14 of them in quarantine), you should plan to keep going and not stop overnight.
