Questions and seeking advice:

I hope the gas prices remain low. Since you are entering through West Yellowstone, fill the tank(s) in Idaho Falls or Rexburg. Top off in West Yellowstone.

TomFuller - thanks for the gas tips. My timing to rent a RV gas guzzler could not be better.

Itinerary, RV parks, to do/ what not to do,

Looks like a great trip. Do pick up snacks, drinks, fruit, etc. soon after you pick up the RV. There is not much in Yellowstone that isn't pricey and kids do like to graze. Also fill the gas tank any time it gets below a half, stations can be quite far apart.

Having a SUV will make it much easier to find parking spots when you want.

emalloy--thanks. Have a WalMart picked out.

And I've been wondering where all you Utah experts have been.?
