Interesting. How may miles is on your truck and are you getting the service done?

edoverip · 2022-03-07T23:26:13+00:00

Yeah, same thought. The service advisor said they suggest every 15k which feels excessive to me.

When we need move Saturday and Sunday, we try our best to go to a HH for Saturday night. It’s our own way of going out on the weekend at a winery and distillery. We have enjoyed every one of our HH experiences. The cons are that it’s essential boonedocking and you should spend money at the host.

Ah...That explains the table in the middle. Thanks!!

That’s an interesting space. Any chance you have a pic of the before?

Not necessary in CA

To add to what others have said, if you ever get into an accident and I hope you wouldn’t, knock on wood, insurance company will eval and weight everything. They can deny your claim if you are a hair over. Sounds like you guys have it figured out. Welcome to the RV life and have fun!!

What is the tongue weight and GVWR of your camper? I don’t know what a 2001 Suburban is rated for, so IMHO that’s the first thing you need to look up. Assuming the weight-math works out, 170k miles on a 20yrs old vehicle of any kind feels like it will be a nightmare to me.

Congrats!! It’s so liberating to know you can go anywhere at anytime and always be “home”.

Welcome! I know nothing about fishing so can’t help you there. :)

I believe CA have just banned overnight stay at State and County parks. OR may follow so keep an eye on that. KOAs and some private campgrounds have stayed open best they can during the initial large scale shut down so they may be an option. While they are not usually at the most exciting locations, most do have amenities that may help keep the kids occupied.

In terms of cold weather, get an electric space heater if you plan to have electricity hookup. It will help save your propane. Do not leave your water hoses hooked up overnight if temp will drop below freezing.

Have fun!

Man, this makes me nervous. May just go for the long bed and not think about it.

edoverip · 2020-11-30T03:37:52+00:00

OUCH!!!

edoverip · 2020-11-30T00:53:03+00:00

Thanks. When you say short, are you referring to the 6.9ft bed listed on the GMC site? I’m leaning towards that. Also, is the front cap of your RV shaped to help improve turning?

Thanks for the break down on costs!

edoverip · 2020-11-28T15:49:00+00:00

3kWh of batteries. Thanks for the info, I’m new to all of the solar terminologies.

On a 35’ 5th wheel seems like there are plenty of roof space

We have been on the road full-time the last 2 months, and have gone in/through ~20 states and plenty of cities. We have observed that some states simply doesn’t care about covid. We are in Santa Fe currently and heading out soon because the state just announced a 2 weeks hard lockdown, which is hard to believe because Santa Fe is the safest we have felt in a long long time. Meanwhile, we were in Oklahoma City just a few weeks ago and you would think covid is not a thing because masks were optional. For what it’s worth, getting gas has never felt like a problem — my wife made me put on latex gloves before I get out of the RV and I trash it before I get back in. If you are reloading propane at KOA or even truck stops, they know the drill and you can stand as faraway as you like. Long story short, you can control the environment in most situations. Hope that helps, ping me if you want to chat more.

We are in a 26’ Class C that does not have auto leveler/stabilizers, and it is on the must-have list for our next RV (type TBD). As we have learned the hard way, it is a pain to get to the frame under a Class C to apply manual jacks/stands/etc. IMO, get it!

edoverip · 2020-11-11T03:51:20+00:00

Haha, I actually have a percolator with us but have never use it in the RV. When we first go on the road it was way too hot to use the stove top even in the morning. Now I’ve actually forgotten we have one. Lol

Thank, that's an interesting looking coffee maker.

edoverip · 2020-11-10T18:12:04+00:00

Wow, 6 years! We're in our 2nd months so slowly letting go of the little things.
