    ?'s about Coast to Coast and RPI

    Hi again, DH wants to purchase a 'used' C2C membership along with an RPI membership to use as we head out as full timers. Theoretically we would then only have to pay $10 a night at their campgrounds and could stay for 14 days at a time. I need testimonials. Is there anyone out there who will...
