Road travel guides

I would like to get a road travel guide for travel with my Dodge and 5th wheel. I have heard of two similar guides, "The Next Exit" and "Exit Now." I have been unable to find the most recently published "Exit Now" in any book stores around me so I can compare the two in person. I would like to know if anyone has seen or used both of these, and which they preferred and why. If you have any other suggestions for road travel guides in the U.S. I would be open to any suggestions. We used the "Milepost" on a recent trip to Alaska and found it a great help. I wish there was something like it for the Lower 48 states.
