FMCA National Office Thu at 4:14 AM If you visit our Sprint web page, there is a coverage map. You can search by zip code:  https://www.fmca.com/index.php?option=com_fmcatechconnect&view=home

We are full-timers and travel around the country all year long. We have been to areas where there was zero Sprint coverage. Verizon does still appear to have the best coverage nationwide. Followed by AT&T, then T-Mobile and Sprint at the bottom. IF, big IF, the merger of T-Mobile and Sprint does happen, it will improve the landscape a little bit. The coverage maps provided by the carriers are mostly useless because they do not really show much detail and try to make you believe you have coverage. If you have a smartphone, go and get the app named “COVERAGE”. It allows you to search by ROAMING/2G/3G/4G/LTE coverage by carrier in any parts around the country and you can drill down to city level and street level. See photo. The basic app (showing an antenna tower on red background) is free. An HD map version subscription is $4.99 per year. Worth it. Determine where you travel and it will help you to determine which carrier is best for you. Determine what you use your data for and it will provide you with valuable information about how much data (as in GB) you will need. Bear in mind, streaming one HD movie will easily take 4-6 GB out of your data allowance. The type of hardware that you use (Smartphone vs Hotspot vs Cellular Router) as well as indoor or outdoor antennas will also play a big role in how well you can receive and send.  less

There is also 15 gigs per line for hotspot use before it is throttled back. The phone data is not throttled. It cost $40.00 the regular charges. It saved us nearly $40.00 per month over what we had before.  less

Walt & Lanie Confer 10 hours ago We have been using it for a year, everywhere boosting it with a camp-pro and never an issue ! Truly unlimited !!

Stevenab Wed at 3:52 PM We registered for the event but not planned the trip yet.  Mount Rushmore before of after.  Anyone know the bestRV site?  Look forward to seeing everyone!  Any ham radio guys out there?

Lynn Crowley Wed at 4:05 PM RVillage is having an event at The Sturgis RV Park in June. This RV Park is centrally located in the Black Hills and is convenient to all the attractions. It would be a great place to stay either before of after the FMCA Minot Rally.

Galen Steele Wed at 7:52 PM Already registered 

wevchozen Wed at 8:12 PM We’ll be there - Mt. Rushmore after

John & Debby Cassidy Tue at 6:48 PM This is the FMCA benefit we have used the most.  Definitely saved us some $$$$ on tires.

Barb & Al Packman Wed at 4:10 AM Don't forget to cover those Michelins from sunlight! Had on new coach two years old and they cracked around the rim. Michelin said sorry you did not protect them from the sun and you used tire protectant spray on them. Never again will I buy michelins.

Tom & Deb Duchaine Wed at 12:06 PM We just ordered some tire covers from them just today, think they will help with the tire life.

Sam & Edye 12 hours ago Have you ever filed a claim? If not, why do u pay so much for the low deductible? Ask for rates with higher deductibles, like $2500... you’ll be surprised.

Nessa Mon at 9:22 PM Verizon and Sprint mifis from FMCA.  The sprint is unlimited and the verizon is throttled at 25mb.

A little work a few miles south of Crescent City, but that's ongoing. We waited less than 5 minutes. This is one of the worst streches. Have a great trip. All of 101 should be fine by July. We live in Trinidad, north of Eureka, and travel 101 from Oregon to San Francisco pretty regularly.  less

Jon & Sue W Mon at 3:43 PM We’re going to be heading in the opposite direction next fall. Interested in the same info. Safe travels!

LarandSus Mon at 10:17 AM We are having that problem but ours is a 2015 Newmar. So, I'm guessing it is the same supplier.

UTTransplant Mon at 4:44 AM Something similar happened to us in our last trailer. We picked up a nail but discovered it before any real damage. TPMS products are a necessity IMHO.

Bruce & Linda (Omnibus) Mon at 5:45 AM And most TPMS systems today are actually TPTMS (PT = Pressure and Temperature).  The temperature feature has alerted us to brake problems on two occasions.  We would not drive our MH without such a system.

Debbie Lockey Mon at 6:52 AM My husband bought a system at the rally. I've been a little skeptical, but thanks for sharing. Feeling better now!

OurMobileBackPack Mon at 8:49 AM Hi,
I picked up the tire minder TPMS at the Quartzite RV show set it up on the MH and the toad. Well worth the investment for the peace of mind it gives me.
