Hi Everyone: First time poster and aspiring RTR'er here.
If I have just 3-4 days to come to the 2019 RTR, I'm wondering which days you would recommend, based on my interests below? I'm going to try and buy plane tickets the next time I see a sale, and perhaps rent an SUV for sleeping in and bring a tent with me. As of now, the expected RTR dates are Jan 9 - Jan 20.
I'm mostly interested in learning about (1) how to set up a Prius or other car for intermittent long trips, (2) seeing the insides of lots of rigs (mostly cars, perhaps), and also (3) getting to experience some of the most informative/helpful/memorable/fun/social/etc parts of the RTR. I'm pretty new to camping and traveling/sleeping in a vehicle.
If I want to see inside many people's cars for ideas, is it best to wait until the Open House(s)? If so, around which day(s) does that usually happen?
I saw someone mention that parking spots close-in fill up quickly, so does that mean it can be good to get there on or near the 9th? I just have 3-4 days, total, to be there.
Any other considerations I should be aware of, in terms of when I aim to arrive?
