    I have a question. I asked chat GPT and it actually directed me to your Channel. Do you ever see any Schoolies AKA bus conversions at any of the Thousand Trail campgrounds or any campgrounds? My wife and I are considering this way of life after years of talking. Her dream is to have a school bus that we convert. Do you see these anywhere or do you know if they are banned in most Parks? I appreciate your time.

    • @TravelswithTedRV
      @TravelswithTedRV 14 дней назад

      I have seen schoolies at Thousand Trails parks. Most TT do not have rules about age/type of RV. The trails collection (Encore) parks may have stricter rules, but I think you would still be fine at the majority of those.

    I don't have the travel bug, but I have been wanting to buy a RV for some time now. With how housing has become so expensive. I rather spend what you would pay for rent for a year on decent RV. At the end of that year you still have a place to live, and it's paid for. I would love to buy a small plot of land as long as I had water and sewer hookups I would solar power my RV.

    • @TravelswithTedRV

      Lots of people living stationary in RVs. How much it will save you depends on the area you live in. Look at local regulations carefully thought, it is hard to find land where it is legal to live full-time in an RV without building a house on the property

    From what I keep reading and hearing is that TT is more for the weekend campers and not for full time campers. I considered getting a membership but if I can only stay for 14 and then have to go to motel or another campground outside TT then it’s not worth it to me. I keep seeing adds about month long reservations but everything I heard is for 14 days at a time. So where is the monthly reservations at. Sounds fishy to me.

      If you watch the video, or read our article (www.travelswithted.com/thousand-trails-membership-levels/) I explain all the different membership levels. The upgraded memberships are definitely great for full-timers. We use ours about half the time, and I know plenty of full-timers who stay at TT exclusively.

  • @garyp9906

    My wife and I are in our 60's and 70's. We just sold our RV yesterday. The reason: It's too much work and money to haul one of these things. We just got back from a 4,000 mile round trip from the Midwest to the Pacific Northwest. This trip finished us off for ever owning one again. First, the gas mileage. It cost us over $1600 for fuel. Then add in the campgrounds. Yes, we did stay at some where they were just $10 per night, but others were as much $70 per night. Add in the work involved: Backing in the campsite, leveling, putting down the stabilizers, connecting water and electric, dumping your tanks, pulling in the slide, etc. Every time we would stop for fuel, I would have to navigate the gas station to make sure I could pull in and out without hitting an obstacle. Plus, you can't make distance pulling one of these things. We would keep the speed limit at 60-65 and cars would be flying past us. Our kids flew out to meet us in the Pacific Northwest and stayed in a VRBO 4 miles from our campground. It was a beautiful house, all the amenities a person needed. No stress involved. We on the other hand, camped down the road from them with no electric, no WIFI and I had to haul water to fill our water tanks. Yep, this last trip finished us off ever owning one of these again. Plus, add in the yearly insurance, registration and maintenance. I will say we did see some nice places with our RV and was glad we got to travel in it. From now on, it's driving and staying in hotels!

Like I said in my previous post, owning an RV just to use a month out of the year is a costly mistake. Now, if you are living in one, yes. You will save money.

    • @sjordan7085
      @sjordan7085 4 месяца назад

      Spending $63.000.00 sounds insane to me. I can only speak for myself, but as a Senior on Social Security there is no way I would spend anywhere near that amount. Obviously, there are many ways to RV, from ultra-luxury to modest vintage. My Toyota Mini Cruiser has four cylinders and is exellent on gas mileage, albeit big enough for myself and a small dog, and that's about it. But, for one person it is all I need. That said, for a variety of reasons I am not keen to give up my sticks and bricks in exchange for FT RV living. Short weekend trips to local places of natural beauty provides a change of scenery and a pleasant and inexpensive form of recreation. I am grateful to have a choice.
