The Problem

With computers and the internet dominating our way of life in the 21st century, programs specifically for the RVer are in high demand. RVers on the road in North America need up-to-date information about where to stay in their rigs, available on their portable laptop computers that they use while traveling. Books are great, however they are heavy, cumbersome, take up valuable space and are sometimes difficult to quickly and efficiently find the information needed.

The Solution

The 2006 RV Parks & Campground Navigator, 2 CD-ROM Set by Trailer Life is the perfect solution for the computer-saavy RVer. Interactive maps allow you to create, personalize, scale and print your own custom maps specific to your trip. This puts you in 100% control of your trip map set. The maps are easy-to-read and include all the 2006 TL Campground Directory listing information for over 12,000 RV parks, which makes these CDs a reliable, convenient and invaluable travel tool.



Good Sam's experts huddled with Americašs top software experts, map makers, satellite gurus, and computer aces to develop the new and improved 2006 RV Parks & Campground Navigator, 2 CD-ROM Set. You can easily search according to your rig and site preferences. As in the 2006 TL Campground Directory, TL representatives personally inspected all private RV parks and campgrounds for cleanliness, amenities, services, et cetera, and include all that information in their exclusive rating system.

Installation and Operation

As with any computer software program, successful installation and operation require reading the instruction manual to familiarize yourself with the installation procedure then inserting the disc in the CD-ROM slot and following the on-screen installation instructions. It is very user-friendly, once you get the hang-of-it!

Windows NT4.0,WindowsMe, WindowsXP, Windows2000
IBM PC 80486 compatible machine running at 500MHZ or greater
128 MB of RAM Minimum (256 MB Recommended)
Hard drive with 1.1 GB of available space
CD-ROM Drive
Internet features require a compatible browser and Internet Service Provider (ISP)
GPS feature requires a laptop computer and a NMEA-compliant GPS receiver.

NOTE: Sadly, the 2006 RV Parks & Campground Navigator, 2 CD-ROM Set is not supported by by the MacIntosh operating system and therefore I personally do not have this valuable piece of computer software. If it ever becomes available for MAC users, I will get in immediately. I have, however, seen it in use and for those of you RVers who have a PC with the above system requirements...........this is a great tool to make your RVing life much more enjoyable.
