Took my Class C to LTM Auto Service Center (Pontiac, MI) for inspection after another subscriber thanked you for the referral. I just now viewed this vlog so know where the other subscriber got the referral. My thought was if you referred, I was in. It turn out that LTM is woman owed. How I found out was that I was talking to the tech working on my rig and said that being a woman with a husband with Alzheimer's I'm skeptical about garages taking advantage of me. The tech turned out to be Tim, the T in LTM. He told me it was a woman owned company, his wife, Lee, the L in LTM. LOL Also, I learned that they own LTM Quick Lube (Auburn Hills, MI) which advertise "no truck too big." They have an oversized bay that handles Motorhomes. The cost was was amazing. Also, if you use their oil change service, senior citizen's get 10% off service at the auto center and quick lube. It's a no brainier for me. I'm scheduled to have my air conditioner serviced. Thanks for the referral!!! I'm a "Happy Camper." 🏕️
I am getting ready for a 5 month cross country trip. I took my Winnebago travel trailer into the dealer and had the wheel bearings repacked and an overall checkup. I also washed and hand paste waxed the entire exterior, climbing up and down a step ladder to get to the 10ft top. And, I am in your age range. Doing all my Googlemaps research and printing out maps of my route just in case I end up with no cell coverage as I plan to visit some remote areas. Hope to see you on the road. Love your videos.
All good tips. Also recommend using rechargeable batteries. So easy when you have on-board power to recharge them.
I love this video and how very thorough you are before hitting the road thank you so much for such Rich information
Fantastic tips!
Excellent video! Bringing awareness to pre-trip checks is so important! Its like the "5 P's" I learned in the Army..."Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance"!
I really enjoy all your videos 👍👌😎✌🏻
Thanks for the great tips! Wishing you both very happy and safe travels!
Oh man what a great summer. Can't wait for all the videos that will be coming. Have a great time.
This is going to be so fun to follow along. Safe travels :)
Great video guys! Subscribed :)
Good tips across the spectrum, presented concisely. I’m sure I’ll come back to this one!
cutest couple ever
Love u 2, Hope to join the adventure soon !
Great info on getting ready for the summer trip. I think the GoPro will be really cool for adding a good view from the road. I think I'll do the same.
Good and informative video. Hoekstra, now that is a good and solid Dutch name ;)

Thank you so much for this video . timing is everything we just purchased our 1st RV , we considered Roadtrack , however went in the end with a pleasure-way. We have been watching you guys now for a year and love your video's. BTW- we live in Michigan, within a short drive from you. We will call Tom at LTM Auto tomorrow, to look over our RV (purchased 2014 with 15K miles). Will be sure to let him know you sent us. Hope to met up with you in the future.. Thanks again Rosemarie
"A stitch in time, saves nine" Is that how it's done? Great info!!! :))
CAJUN Jamis. An ounce of prevention, worth a pound of cure?
Hello there, I have binge watching your videos and love them!!! We are getting ready to retire, sell it all and hit the road in June 2019. I did hear Mike say something interesting about a/c use. I am interested in knowing how big your a/c, solar panel and inverter are as he said that he can run the a/c for 6-8 hours using solar panels only. Any info will be greatly appreciated!!
Mike & Jennifer thank you for your videos, great information. Qst Mike have you had any issues finding diesel fuel #2? I've been hearing folks have had some trouble finding diesel #2. They been coming across ALOT of bio-diesel & that's not good for sprinters.
Mike have you & Jennifer on all of your roadtrips come across any issues finding diesel#2 vs bio-diesel? . My 2013 MB sprinter book say do not use any bio diesel. I always start to look for diesel when my fuel gauge gets to half a tank. Thank you for all the videos you two post.
