    I am writing again to tell ya'll how very much I enjoyed this video. I know how beautiful it is! We have been there. Our saddle club used to ride horses there Before the bison were allowed to roam free. But I don't ride there anymore, but rather we just go camping there. We have had rain for a few days , first week of Oct. I am such a fan. May God bless yall always. We live just outside of Lubbock.

    I'm looking for a suggestion. I'm planning a trip for next May. I know we are going to start at Palo Duro Canyon State Park, I'm trying to decide between Caprock Canyons vs Copper Breaks for the second half of our trip. I'm leaning towards Caprock Canyons and doing a day trip or two to Copper Breaks.

      @rvamericayall  Před 2 lety +1

      That's a tough call. We really enjoy both Caprock Canyons and Copper Breaks. But I think if we had to decide between the 2, we'd go with Caprock Canyons. We love watching the bison and the prairie dogs. Both parks are beautiful and have good hiking so you can't go wrong either way. Enjoy your trip!

      We have a 275hp Cummins which is small by diesel standards but works great for this coach. Our 35’ Palazzo had a 300hp Cummins. We have been very happy with the Cummins engines. What we like most about the diesel pushers vs the Class A gas that we had is that the cockpit is quieter and cooler since the engine is in the rear. The ride is also smoother.

      You’re very welcome. We prefer the diesel over our gas because it has air suspension that give us a smoother ride, and since the engine is in the rear, the cockpit is quieter and cooler. The maintenance is more expensive on a diesel, but the engines are typically built to handle a lot more miles in their lifetime.
