  • Join us, as we embark in this new journey to travel all over the United States and Canada. We bought a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD High Country diesel, and a 2022 Airstream Flying Cloud 30FB Bunk.
    We want to start close to home, so we're going to visit all the Florida State Parks, this will allow us to get all the practice we need, before we venture far away from home.
    In this episode we are heading North, to Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground, for our maiden voyage (shakedown). Five star campground, with full hookups. Making it easier for newbies.

    You’re a great father! I have spent many, many days there at Fort Wilderness with my wife and two boys…movies, pool, golf carts, incredible memories. I remember stressing about the same things as you…in the end those boys will remember the time and care that you took to be with them and make their vacation a special one. Anyone can stay in a hotel, this means way more. Strong work dad!!! You have a new subscriber.

    Long time Airstreamer here, 30+ years and still at it. All your hoses, stabilizers, etc, anything that touches the ground or that you will roll up and store inside one of the Airstream compartments can invite ants or other bugs to join you inside the rig. Simple solution…Comet cleanser from the $ store sprinkled under hoses, etc and you won’t have a problem. Just be sure to put it everywhere.

    Great video! I have traveled many times from Upstate New York with my RV to stay at FW. It is a one of a kind campground. You were looking for suggestions on other campgrounds to stay at. I can recommend the Orlando Kissimmee KOA if you want to save a little and have access to the theme parks. Also would recommend North Beach Camp Resort in Saint Augustine. No paved sites so you need the campsite mats to cut down on coquina in the RV. Beautiful sites.

Safe travels tomorrow, specially going through Tamiami Trail, even though they’ve expanded and upgraded the first 15 miles, West of Krome Ave, it’s still dangerous. I worked that entire area for 10 years. We’ve a new video coming out later on today and another one next week.

A recommendation on a Florida trip would be St. Augustine and look at staying at Sun Outdoors St Augustine (formerly Compass RV Resort), which is close to the historic area. Ask to stay in the Oasis area of the RV park. Happy travels! :)

    What a great first trip in your Airstream. We are hoping to take the grandkids there in a couple of years. Did you try the heat pump yet? It really saves on propane. We have hardly ever needed to use the furnace (which works great). I have 3 to 5 years until retirement. We are strongly considering going full time in our Airstream. As far as Florida camping, (we live in Northern Illinois) we have reservations next August on the Emerald Coast. Staying at a campground called "Camping on the Gulf" in Miramar Beach. They have sites that are literally on the beach (we got one for a 5 night stay) but you have to reserve a good year in advance. Hoping to get down to the Keys one of these days.

    • @GetawayWheels
      @GetawayWheels  Před 2 lety

      Yes, we used the heat pump several times and also the furnace, just because the temperature was in the high 40’s. You don’t see that a lot here in Florida! 😂 We’re definitely thinking about doing the same thing and going full time, just need to take a few things into consideration, when it comes to the kids. If you guys end up coming to the keys, look for Blue Water RV Resort, it’s awesome. Also here in Florida, research Westgate River Ranch, it’s incredible. Happy travels, see you on the road my friend!!

    Great videos. Keep them coming. We just received word that our 2022 30FB is ready for pick up but it’s 18F outside today (Massachusetts) so we will be waiting until spring to start our adventures. Given that you have the same model, do you have any advice on bedding? The dealer is storing our camper for us this winter but it’s a couple hours away so we are trying to do most of the provisioning/prepping sight unseen. There is not much info online regarding detailed specs for the 2022 models (e.g. mattress sizes and thicknesses). Good luck with everything. By the way, your enthusiasm at the beginning of this video is amazing. I’ll be three months behind you!

    My wife and I just started full time in a 30' airstream as well as a CZcams channel, our first major stop was the Florida Keys. My recommendation would be to go way overkill on the power system if you plan on doing anything off grid. Same model as yours and I have 6 battle born batteries, victron 3k inverter, victron solar charge controller and 8 100w Renogy panels on the roof. Just watched your video with 1 bar of verizon (ordered a weboost) in the middle of nowhere Mississippi....in a rainstorm, batteries are at 97%, been cloudy all day and it's dark outside. Plus the ac will run off it... so I'm told. Still have to install the soft start and finish the wiring for that. Battle born sells complete kits for RV's direct from manufacturer w/free shipping

    • @GetawayWheels
      @GetawayWheels  Před 2 lety +1

      Definitely have to make some modifications to the power system. We are also planning to go full time and we need all the power we can get, for the kids to go to school online. We’re still in the honeymoon phase, with our trailer 😂. That’s why we haven’t done it yet. We’re heading towards the Keys, very soon!!
