No more. Nowadays there seems to be 10x the number of RVs in use and advance reservations are mandatory. We never even try to camp in places that are "first come/first served" today because it's completely hopeless. The only places where fc/fs works today are commercial RV parks where you'll pay $50-$100 per night for a camping spot packed in like sardines with everybody else.
