bothways vs Roadtrippers

Roadtrippers is the specialist: route-based planning, a huge database of roadside stops, and RV-specific routing. bothways isn't a routing tool — it's where the group agrees on the nights, the drivers and the plan. If you're doing a serious road trip, you may well want both.
