Can't justify spending that much money especially when COE campground cost us about 11 buck a night

Guilty as charged on number 2! Bought a few things that didnt work out and or found out that i didnt need them. Bought within couple weeks of maiden voyage to have time to return to Amazon for this very reason. Thanks

It doesn't cost me 300 a month I pay 650 a year

From what I keep reading and hearing is that TT is more for the weekend campers and not for full time campers. I considered getting a membership but if I can only stay for 14 and then have to go to motel or another campground outside TT then it’s not worth it to me. I keep seeing adds about month long reservations but everything I heard is for 14 days at a time. So where is the monthly reservations at. Sounds fishy to me.

My wife and I are in our 60's and 70's. We just sold our RV yesterday. The reason: It's too much work and money to haul one of these things. We just got back from a 4,000 mile round trip from the Midwest to the Pacific Northwest. This trip finished us off for ever owning one again. First, the gas mileage. It cost us over $1600 for fuel. Then add in the campgrounds. Yes, we did stay at some where they were just $10 per night, but others were as much $70 per night. Add in the work involved: Backing in the campsite, leveling, putting down the stabilizers, connecting water and electric, dumping your tanks, pulling in the slide, etc. Every time we would stop for fuel, I would have to navigate the gas station to make sure I could pull in and out without hitting an obstacle. Plus, you can't make distance pulling one of these things. We would keep the speed limit at 60-65 and cars would be flying past us. Our kids flew out to meet us in the Pacific Northwest and stayed in a VRBO 4 miles from our campground. It was a beautiful house, all the amenities a person needed. No stress involved. We on the other hand, camped down the road from them with no electric, no WIFI and I had to haul water to fill our water tanks. Yep, this last trip finished us off ever owning one of these again. Plus, add in the yearly insurance, registration and maintenance. I will say we did see some nice places with our RV and was glad we got to travel in it. From now on, it's driving and staying in hotels!

The supreme idiots will make it illegal real soon, they made being homeless illegal, and boondocking could be argued in court to be illegal. Its headed out, we did it 14 yrs with nothing but hassles and near miss violence, one person gets shot and the courts will ban it.

Thanks for sharing. I recently watched a full time rv couple who kept track of the years expenses and broke them down into categories. Their first year total was about $63,000. Sounds too expensive for me to consider.

30 amp service supplies a total of 30 amps of 120 volts AC on a single line. So-called 50 amp power actually provides two independent 50 amp lines, for a total capacity of 100 amps, over three times the capacity of a 30 amp hookup.

So did I miss the actual month cost?

Paved sites?

Driver-any Class A, B, or C motorhome where you drive instead of tow. Class A-often the largest of the driver motorhomes measuring up to 40 feet. They resemble a bus. They come in both gas and diesel models. These would have a bedroom, some have bunk beds as well, a living area, full kitchen, and dining area. Some might have a washer and dryer. Some might have a full and 1/2 bath and some newer models now have 2 full baths. Class B-This one looks like a standard van. It is the smallest of the drivers. They usually have a small kitchenette, sleeping area, and a small bathroom. Some of the larger models may have a shower. Class C-Oddly enough this is in between Class A & B. It looks like a hybrid of both with a van like cab and a class A body. There are some Class C models that are as large as a Class A and have a chassis from a Freightliner semi truck. These tend to have the same amenities as a class A. Tow Behind: Any RV that needs to be towed by a separate vehicle. There are different types of tow behinds. Pop-up: This is literally what it is. When en route, the popup is completely closed but when you arrive at your campsite, you literally "pop up" the camper. These are generally like a class B driver where it has a small kitchenette and maybe a toilet with a curtain instead of an enclosed bathroom but many do not have toilets and you have to use the campground bath houses to do your business. They may have a small sleeping area or some of the larger ones have pop out beds. These are generally the least expensive options and most can be towed by a car. Hybrid-A hybrid is a tow behind trailer that has a kitchen, full bathroom, as well as a living area with a TV but not a dedicated bedroom. Instead it has pop out beds like a pop up camper. Travel Trailer-This is the common name for a run in the mill tow behind camper. It would have a dedicated bedroom, full bath, kitchen, living area with a sofa, and a dining area with either a table and chairs or a booth. These come in all shapes and sizes. Some have "bunkhouses" which is basically a bedroom for the kids 5th Wheel-These are the largest of the tow behinds. Some may be larger than some class A's. These usually have to be towed by a powerful truck like a Ford f-250 or larger. These are distinct in their design as there is a section of the camper that hangs over the bed of the truck where the tow package is. Often these resemble mini houses complete with 2 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms with the master bedroom being up the stairs which is in front of the rig. I've seen models with ceiling fans and kitchens with bars. These description are, of course, cliffnotes laymen's terms.

Thank you for this video! We also have an Ibex/No-Boundary, specifically a '23 Ibex 19MBH. I've been looking for a good video covering this. I'll use your coupon code when we check out. On a different note, have you had any issues with your front window leaking around the edges?

Great RV explanations! I am sure it will help the new RV'ers out a lot. Thanks for sharing the info.

I’m trying to understand the 7 days out

Wait is a normal smore not vegetarian

It's just a marshmallow, not a big juicy steak. Why do vegetarians make everything worse lol.

How do I find my vin with no title or registration and sticker all missing?

Buy a RV

The water filter is a must, thanks for the tips! One item I need for my RV is my HomeFi router as I work remotely. It's been a lifesaver for living and traveling rurally.

Either way toilet paper or not it is still pollution when your let your turds plaster the roads

Toilet paper is a must might I suggest you don't flush it maybe use a trash can.

Great tips, thanks!

Super large closet😂😂😂

Super large closet😂😂😂😂

I’ll pass. I am not your enabler

Do not drink from that water hose!

Unless you know what a backflow prevention valve is, don't ever do this please

☆Important TIp☆ Make sure your gate valves are CLOSED before removing the caps. Yup 😢....grey valve for our galley tank was open and full from our last trip. Picture, Fermented grey water in Georgia summer heat 🤮

Is that where the poop goes? The poop tank? El tanko de caca? The turd tub? The poo pot? Poopin' McTankenface?

Douching your camper lol.

👍

Camper enema😊

Realistically unless you are hooking the city water hose up to someting with a higher pressure than city/well water pressure there is no risk of anything entering your water supply.

I empty my black tank at the camp site just before I leave. On the ground 😂

Make sure you use your fresh water hose….. 😂

Please for the love of sanitary water supplies don't use this device. You are much better off following whatever manufacture recommendations there are for flushing the black tank.

You are most welcome. I'm waiting for your next video, when will you upload the next one?

Happy peper

So... 60 day booking means? Does that mean you can not plan out more than 60 in advance or that you will be required to plan it out 60 days or you will not be able get a spot? This is confusing to me.

QUAKEHOLD is especially used in earthquake prone areas, such as Japan.

Tell me about it! Our camper was the same situation. Bathroom and door and all

Everything is a scam these days!!🤦‍♀️

Then count all your money you save by not living in a rv

Glorified homelessness

Don’t use DAWN ON YOUR RV. It contains LOTS OF BIO CHEMICALS that are harsh on your finish. You should use a good auto detergent with lower chemicals… lots of new RVs come from factory with a seal DAWN detergent can penetrate that sealer….

RV seems enticing but it’s a very hard work I think. Depreciation of RV and cost of maintenance is probably high. I stay at hotels with full sized shower and bed with breakfast. Cheaper for me. If I go off grid a simple tent. That’s it.

Contrary to popular belief, owning a RV IS NOT an investment. Instead, it is a luxury expense. Depreciation is a big factor. RV's are labor intensive. Maintenance is constant to ensure upkeep, more so than your sticks and bricks. Full time isn't all that it's cracked up to be. You'll still need a "tax home". These days, fuel and parking will be your everyday expenses. Not cheap unless you want to squat in a Walmart parking lot every day.
