    Actively searching for a Roadtrek. Did you look at Rialta? Curious. Very nice video. Didn't get my last two rv's inspected professionally. Thought I would this ti.e as I will be looking at 90"s models. Long backlog for that. 😂 Thank you and safe travels.

    They're great little vans if you can find one rust-free after all these years. Really well designed. Had to laugh at the old Fedders A/C. That plant closed back in 1997, is now a Home Depot. Guy who made the (real) Roadtreks sourced all his parts from U.S. and Canadian suppliers. New Roadtreks are off-shore supplied. Kind of sad really. Spray it with oil once a year, take good care of it. Thing will last forever.

Could you please share how you did the curtains in the bed area. I still have the original ones and really don’t care for them. You have made you RT so nice and cozy and looks well organized.

  • @sharonf7520

    I am presently looking for an older Roadtrek...love yours! One of the first things I will do is get rid of the toilet and replace it with a composting (diy) toilet. I would do almost anything to never deal with a black tank.

  • @leslie-annepepin8927
    @leslie-annepepin8927 Год назад

    We got tired of the grey/black tanks. Last trip, we lined toilet with plastic bag and used a scoop of the powder (Amazon) that changes liquids to gel. Do your thing, tie up the bag and put in a lidded container until you get to a garbage (which every gas station has!) We use white plastic tubs that fit in the sink to wash up or do dishes. Easy to empty wherever you are parked. Did 8,000kms like this and it worked great! No more black/grey tank emptying for us!Bonus! No more smelly van! 👍🏻👍🏻

    I would love to know what your plans are for replacing the toilet. I just bought a 1990 road track Dodge and although like you I need the toilet, the idea of emptying the black water tank is doable it's not fun.

    Hi! I absolutely love your videos - so helpful and fun to watch. I recently purchased a 1990 dodge roadtrek 190 v and currently prepping to paint the cabinets inside. I’m concerned about the vinyl covered particle board portions. How did you paint those? Did you use regular paint? Did you have any issues with the paint adhering? Thanks for any insight you may have! ❤️

    • @MagpieGirlAndFrankie
      @MagpieGirlAndFrankie Год назад

      Hi! So sorry I did not see your comment - I was off the road and van-less for awhile! I didn’t paint mine but looking at a lot of videos, chalk paint might be your best bet - or be sure to use a prime. Frankie’s cabinets scratched easy. Then tape down drop cloths EVERYWHERE!

I hope to move into my RT & travel. Maybe we'll meet each other on the road? Hope you have more video's showing your RT. Good Luck. AL

    Interesting to see this pop up on my feed. I’m profoundly deaf, and do a lot of solo travel. Ridden all over the country alone on my motorcycle and now I’m starting to get into the van thing. Hearing people freak out that I do this alone… they’re full of “what ifs”. Life will happen. Deal with it when it does otherwise people like us will never do anything!

    Dear precious one, please repeat after me with your whole heart, "Father God, I know I'm a sinner and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is Your Son. I believe in the Good News that Jesus died on the cross for my sins and that You resurrected Him from the dead in order to restore my relationship with You. Through my belief and faith in Jesus death, burial and resurrection, I am saved. I want to trust Jesus as my Savior and follow Him as my Lord from this day forward. Please guide my life and help me do Your will, Your way through the Holy Spirit. This I pray in the powerful, loving and glorious name of Your Son, Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. Amen!" ♥️ Dear friend, may Father God our Creator, through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior bless you, lead you, guide you and keep you in His abundantly loving care now and for all eternity! Amen! 🙏♥️

    l knew you were the right person for me! l have fibromyalgia also btw, it's a pain in the tuckus and quite annoying. The good part is needles no longer bother me at all. Anyway, l want to be a full-time nomad but I'm alone and wondered how you established yourself for your license, voting, etc and now l have the tutorials you've shared to find out. lt's really difficult to change your thinking after having an address for most of your life to ...? I'm kinda lost on the details and there isn't a community of this kind around where I live. l don't have a dog now but wanted to get one to be my co-pilot/buddy/alarm/exercise push. l've been trying to find out if there's a breed that's best suited to the lifestyle. You've given me some food for thot on the subject. Thank you so very much for sharing this stuff, l sure do appreciate it. ☮

  • @lindaward3156
    @lindaward3156 2 года назад

    OMG, Im so glad l've stumbled across your story. First, l cannot believe you belong in the over 50 category, your energy is much younger, and 2nd, your knowledge is just what l need as a fledging full-time solo female nomad. l haven't been able to decide between a van or a short bus. I'm very comfortable driving buses as I started in the late '70's driving in the hilltowns of Western MA w/4 seasons of spring mud roads and plowing deep snow as the first vehicle arriving - all before power steering and automatic transmissions, what a life lesson in driving. I've driven mostly school bus for 40 years so I'm partial to them. i don't want/need a regular-sized one so the shuttles have been interesting. I want to boondock as much as possible. When you said certain sized vehicles were excluded from driving what sounded like places I'd like to go, l had no idea. I'm very isolated due to circumstances (sorta a Fern) and haven't been out in the world for some time but in my youth crisscrossed the country (hitch-hiking) 4x's. l'd love to re-visit some of the out-of-the-way places l discovered back then. I'd also love to meet interesting people like you - loved your sign about witches loving equality or something like that. I know you're a good witch! l used to be a Harley woman & we had special waves for other Harley riders (Triumphs & Bonnevilles also) so I understand the camaraderie. Sorry, this is so long, l suck at social media, I'm just so excited to find your story and can't wait to hear more. I don't have a Frankie, l want to get one and wonder if there's a breed that van people consider best suited for the life. I'm more comfortable with bigger dogs, at least middle-sized. l know how to train them. Any suggestions? Thank you for sharing your story, you're fabulous! ☮
