Great stats BandJ! I'm jealous - I want 42 days on the road myself!

I could do without the mice though

Great trip, Brad. Terrie and I have five and a half left before we start our grand adventure. Seeing everyone at the rally didn't help, as it only makes one more anxious. Shouldn't wish five years of your life away, but we have so many things we'd like to see and do that it is difficult on short week vacations. Have a great adventure.

You forgot to mention 1 voided warranty for traveling to Alaska...

At the rally in Goshen, Arem, the product manager for Montana, stated that traveling to Alaska did not void the warranty. Just an FYI

Sounds like you had a very nice trip, Bryan and Judy! Thanks for the post. You're a bit ahead of us in states. We've stayed at least one night in our Montana in 45 states. We've visited 47, but two of those we didn't spend the night. The 48th, for us, is North Dakota and that is a state we really want to spend some time in. We just haven't got there yet.
