Back on the Road - Adventure Awaits!
The passenger commentary on the drop-offs is hilarious! I've heard it for years!
🤣 you should hear the things I said that didn't make the cut.
Yeah when i had a fifth wheel i changed the window out to a see thru. I have two identical door windows in my truck camper, n have gone thru now 2 sets of those blinds because the suns heat warps em n they wont stay clipped in. If only the plastic bar that clips in was metal 😕. So i put on shades that i take off to see out. Well if u do the truck rally i can show u it's a solution for now, lippert needs a better shade design imo. Im hanging out in ltva south right now. Sounds like u did come up this way lol. 🍻
This one isn't a lippert, it's an AP products thin shade, but may likely have similar issues. We try to stay away from anywhere that is hot enough to require AC. 😉 We popped in at quartzite for a bit near the end of November. Still undetermined whether we'll make it to the truck camper rally. We'll probably know a couple days before 😉
😃
Awesome
Thank you 😊
cool channel. heavyd was the o e that did a lot of the big work up there. lots of great video has been made up there. that road washed out right after they got that tank up there then it washed out again the following year I think. crazy life there.
Yes, we watched the episodes when they brought the water tank up and all of the heavy equipment. Crazy!!! And yes, the road did wash out again. Not for the faint of heart, that's for sure. Thanks for watching 😊
Es ist wieder so ein wundervolles Video 🙏 danke dafür und liebe Grüße
Liebe Grüße zurück
👍🏼🍻
Great video I know a lot of people on RUclips say that the GoPro flattens the angle write out and you have no idea how steep it really is if you were to mount a simple manual angle finder that would show forward and back and side to side then you would be able to say it's a 30° incline with a 15°off-camber angle. ( incline front to back off-camber side to side)
Good idea! Thanks for the tip 🙂✌️
Did you go to lone pine and Abraham hills 🛠️🇨🇦🛠️🇨🇦
Nope, we didn't head that far.
@ it’s worth the trip 👍👍🛠️🇨🇦
Another awesome video. I think I would have left the truck at the camping spot and drove up in the jeep
But that would be easy and we don't usually take the easy option 😉🤟
What aux braking system do you use for your Jeep?
We have an older brake buddy classic that we purchased used. We actually have a video coming out soon where we add a breakaway switch to it.
Thanks! My Jeep currently has an Air Force One btand brake system that we used behind a diesel pusher, but need to replace it so we can use it behind our Ram/truck camper.
@randyprince9913 this one looks nice because it has proportional braking, unlike ours which is pretty crude in it's braking control. Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Braking System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes - Wireless Monitor - Proportional Demco Flat Tow Brake System DM86VR search.app/gAxyJVwpp2WS4dZbA
Thanks!
Aren’t they incredible? Have been into Sequoia/Kings Canyon a couple times and it takes your breath away. I always wonder how anyone could think to cut one down on purpose. They seem like one of those things that have lived long enough that they deserve the respect of eternity.
They are incredible! I believe the ancient trees are protected in California and are only cut if they pose a danger. ☺️
@ yes they are now but at one time they were fair game. You are prob past there now but if you take that pass through the park past the general Sherman to Three Rivers there are orange groves there that had some of the best tasting oranges I have ever eaten. Also as you head west back towards the interior you go through lemon tree groves and the lemony smell is almost overwhelming.
Just curious about the height of your unit. I'm building one like yours,but a flat deck. Iis just over 13 feet.
Our overall height is 12'8"
After freezing my butt off, in a winterized rv, n dead batteries getting to quarzsite, watching this only made me cringe. Had enough of wet muddy roads n snow. I'm still thawing 🥶 lol. 🍻
Oh no!!! Glad you made it there safely. Sending warm thoughts your way. How long are you hanging out in Quartzsite?
@ probably march or so i have no idea what i want to do, i'm on a learning curve here lol. In the ltva south, n wow the amount of rvers here really is amazing a bit mind blowing. You hear about it but to actually see it with your own eyes, wow. Still better than a cramped rv park because i dont feel cramped in. Calgary is getting a deep freeze front moving in this week, i'm so thrilled not to be in it!! 🍻
Consider checking out the ltva in Yuma, your pass will be good there. Not as busy warmer and more services should you want to head to town.
@ oh! Thx for letting me know. 🍻
Beautiful! A perfect season to travel through there with the snow, bright skies and green trees! Just another terrific video by you two! Love them all! Love following your journey and your commentary!
It was a beautiful time for sure. We're so glad you found our channel and are loving the content. Thank you for following along ☺️✌️
Could you have done that first twisty drive in your rig instead of your jeep?
We could have but since ice and road conditions were unknown to us and having chains was recommended we opted to take the Jeep and leave the camper set up in the campground.
Maybe they taste like chicken lol
🤣 maybe
Drove through there a couple times now. Best one was on my motorcycle in 2016. The Ladybird Johnson grove is also a nice visit. I am also an avid sticker collector on my trips, but only the good quality vinyl ones
Driving it on a motorcycle would be awesome. We've been missing our bikes a time or two.
Nice trip and some nicer weather. We've done the "1" in our Bigfoot including Big Sur back when it was open. Narrow, but not as narrow as One in Baja!!!
Yes, it took us a while to find the sun 😂 The coast on a bright sunny day is spectacular.
Wow that Hwy 101 !! You need nerves of steel 😊great video, nice scenery 👍
You definitely don't want to take your eyes off the road 🤣 So beautiful though.
Los Banos is translated “The Baths” not bathrooms. Enjoy your channel.
Well, that makes way more sense 😀 Our google translate only translates it into bathrooms. So the word is used for both baths and bathrooms?
Thanks for taking the time to video the drive. Fun to watch.
😊 thank you for watching! ✌️
Great video very scenic
Thank you 😊
Sadly, the road to the Hoh got washed out and closed off now
I was reading about that the other day. Hopefully, they can get it fixed by spring 🤞 Thanks for watching! ☺️✌️
Gorgeous trees 😍 You are so lucky to frequent gift shops!! It’s my fave thing to do lol. Good thing you got all that extra storage 😂
If I told you that 95% of the time, I only walk out with a sticker, will you still be my friend? 🤣
@TheTimeIsNowAdventures of course....it just means there's be more room for my stuff 🤣
😄
Those trees are awesome great video
Thank you! Sequoia trees are next!! 😀
When you saw the falls, did you say, “Oh, chute!”
😄🤦♀️
Bernie told me about your channel Gordie!! Awesome! Great video and great sound track. I'll be following!! :)
Thanks for checking it out Dave!! Much more to come.
Wow, ich bin beeindruckt und in Gedanken bei euch
Ich denke auch oft an dich. Ich hoffe, du erlebst wundervolle Abenteuer.
Guys I am really enjoying this reno series! My wife and i jusy purchased a 1997 2500 10.6 and will be doing many of the same pojects!!
Hopefully our videos can be some help along the way. Good luck and thanks for watching.
Cheri Heights Casino used to be free a long time ago, and we'd pull into that spot that has the ocean view and just wonder at it all. On your way south if you go down Hwy1 there are other casino parking lots you can stay in too.
Thanks for the tip ☺️✌️
Oh, if there's one place that's "must see" it's Newton B Drury parkway. Good for you!
It's soooo beautiful 😍
Bigfoot saw you but nobody believes him/her/ them!....That restaurant made me hungry for some good clam chowda!
🤣🫣 Gord enjoyed that chowder immensely. Thanks for watching ✌️
Yeah love seeing big trees, nature is amazing. A place I have to go someday yet too. 🍻
Your list is getting bigger 🤣
@ u noticed huh 😂, stop showing me places I wanna go to. 🍻
🤣🤣 oh you wait... you'll be calling us all kinds of names soon lol. MUCH more to come.
@ 😂👍🏼
Nice... Watching from Malaysia Kuala Lumpur .enjoy your camping activities and have fun.
Wow! That's amazing. So glad you found us! Thank you for watching ☺️ ✌️
California is a beautiful state unfortunately it's governed by idiots
Yes it is beautiful ✌️
His mic is not working sometimes thru out the video. Ie, first seeing the elk.
We try our best to have our mics on all the time, but sometimes, when in a hurry, we rely on the gopro mic.
I'm so glad you got down on the beach at Bandon, we're pretty proud of that beautiful place.
The beach is AMAZING. We really enjoyed it 😀
"It's like Glamis..." but without the crazy crowds. Oh, and it has ocean views. And more dunes. And trees. Pretty wicked, eh? Glad you visited!
Wicked was definitely the word of the day when we discovered the dunes 😂 We will be back to properly enjoy them. Hopefully, when it isn't raining 🤦♀️
They really do sound like a pack of wild dogs. That’s not a cinnamon bun, that a cinnamon cake.
😆 they really do! ✌️
Orygun, not Oregone
Thanks for watching
Waking up to a giant puddle 😲 that would make me think i sunk for sure. Beautiful tour 🍻
It was definitely an interesting way to start the day.
my sugar level is going up just watching
🤣 right! That cinnamon bun was off the chart!
Great video once again! Question are dogs allowed anywhere within the park?
Thank you! We don't have a dog so I'm not 100% sure. I believe they are allowed in the park but not on the trails and board walks. The national park website should have all the info you need. Thanks for watching ✌️
Well, that's the north half of the Oregon coast anyways. It only gets better.
It sure does!!
I❤your adventures. You both are one of the nicest and most helpful people we met in Baja California.
We are so happy that our paths crossed. We are excited to do some adventuring with you ❤️
I love your videos! Thank you so much! Wishing you a wonderful Christmas season and all best in 2025!
Thank you 😊 Happy New Year to you as well!!
Love the truck , what is the make and model. New to the channel! Happy New Year!
Thanks for watching. It's a 2007 Chevy Kodiak 4500 4x4. We talk more about it in our "Big changes" video as well as our "expert advice" video.
Is this BLM land?
Sort of... BLM with a fee. $10 per day or $75 annually. It gives you access to the RV dump, garbage dump and water fill up at the LTVA as well as the showers and bost launch at the recreation site.
@TheTimeIsNowAdventures How long is annually?
The pass is good for a full year from the day you purchase it. You can stay for 14 days in a 28 day period. Lots of information on the bureau of land management website ☺️
Amazing video! The Oregon coast is stunning.The combination of the rugged coastline and the delicious cheddar was a perfect match! Thanks for sharing.New subscriber here. Best wishes, Chiara & Donato Fuoridalsentiero.
We're so happy you found us! Welcome to the channel 😀
