    I won't make such a claim about my own tenting skills, but I would like to see Truck attempt this!

    How spotty will cell reception be on the way out there and once we're there? My cell is a smart phone, so it could be used to provide updates on the road. During designated stops, of course ... wouldn't want to be Tweeting photos of the road I'm driving on as it could be shortly followed by Tweeting photos of the ditch I've driven into. :lol:

    my roadtrip expierence has shown there is decent covereage everywhere but VT. VT is aweful, but it wasn't on the interestate....my guess is on the interstate, coverage will be semi decent.

    according to PJ_ROCKS, you can get 3G service (no 4G though :lol: )

    I would expect spotty service throughout Montana. Missoula should have service..it is a college town.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I have to suffer with only 3G coverage?!? UNEXCEPTABLE! :evil:

    :lol:

    Yeah, looks like you're right -- I just checked out my T-Mobile coverage and it looks like smooth sailing for most of the trip (even if it is at times in 3G ... :cry: )

    :D

    Thanks!
