    Get a hitch mounted step. The first time your foot slips off that hitch and your shin gets acquainted with it, you will see why.
    Better yet a hitch mounted bumper step. Even a little tap from a car will ruin the lift gate and your camper.

    Hi Jonathan! I tried your glazed brussel sprouts. I didn't have any steak on hand, but did have half a package of tempeh. I cut the tempeh in strips and added it to the sprouts and cooked all until lightly browned and a little crisped around the edges. I added the sauce - soy sauce, maple syrup, and siracha) and cooked it all together until the tempeh and brussels were coated. It was delicious! Thanks for the recipe idea. Keep cookin'' and campen'!!! Oh, and sharing your adventures and recipes!

    I read you can get a hole cut out from the inside of the truck to the camper. It's like a crawl opening so you don't have to get out of the truck to go into the camper. Like an RV.

    • @RSang007
      @RSang007 Před 3 lety

      Not a good idea, what if later he needs to sell just the car, no one would buy with a hole in it, besides theres probably a good 12 inches gap between the truck and the slumber queen.

    Zero your trip meter and fill up full (without camper).... write down millage (better if you measure to 3/4 tank). .. this is so u dont rely on the inaccurate gas gauge. Do the same method with the camper..... see if fuel is accurate (-10 to15% on millage value without camper) Also compare how much (gallons you fill up from 1/4 with and without camper)

    Yes on getting a Tundra. It's definitely going to hold the Slumber Queen a lot more efficiently than the Tacoma. Going high speeds on the highway or on rocky dirt trails with the Slumber Queen on a Tacoma is a disaster waiting to happen. Hope a deal works out for you. Great to see the Slumber Queen outside. You did a great job on it.

    That steak was cooked very well,if you allow me,next time instead of seasoning it on the store's tray,just do it on an actual plate,the steak lost all the salt and pepper to that nasty absorbing mat,better yet,do it as you first arrive to camp.On another note,the best Tundras to buy are;2001,2003,2009,2013 and 2015 year models due to low costumer complaints.

    Hey Jonathan! You were within a few miles of my brother's home in Lake Arrowhead. I have family in the Lake Gregory area as well. I used to work in Lake Arrowhead and live down in San Bernardino and it was a blast to ride my Harley up and down the mountain on Hwy 18. That steak meal you cooked looked absolutely delicious on tape but I would have preferred the steak medium rare. I love brussel sprouts and usually I roast mine in the oven drizzled with extra virgin olive oil, generous salt, pepper and Montreal Steak Seasoning which I also sprinkle generously on the steak as well. I want to try your recipe with the siracha sauce, maple syrup and shoyu. Great video, man! I love doing quick overnight camping trips as well. BTW if you need fishing tips, my brother, Joe, is one of the best trout fishermen in California.
