What up what up, great video guys. We always say that this can make or break a relationship… so if there is cracks 😅 you better take care of them before 🤣🤣 For the toilet…. We use Borax as a treatment 💯 natural and haven’t had any smell issues. We also use a Kitty Genie for our TP (hood tip I got before moving into the RV) if your not familiar it’s a small trash can designed to dump kitty litter in. It has a trap door that you can push the TP thru into a bag. No smell or mess. We don’t ever put TP in the toilet itself. It’s worked great for us. If you guys come to the Oregon Coast this summer… let us know 🌺🤙🏽
I like it. a diaper genie for the RV. Thanks for watching guys. The PNW is on our list for later this year into 2025, still making plans for after may.
I love your view on all this. Many people jumped in RV life during the "Problem Year". They had no clue what they were doing and so many have walked away, broke and back to their mundane life. This life is not easy, sometimes not enjoyable, and costly if you don't know how to work around lot fees, finding free spots and not doing their cooking etc at their site. I like that you tell people, its not always roses and sunshine. It means you're truthful. Thank you
I wish everyone had your level of viewing comprehension. Most just think we are complaining. You get it. We try to pass alone what we learn as well as the places we have been. Have a great weekend.
1 Caveat on the TP, it is MUCH better to use TP that says "Septic Safe". This doesn't mean it can't be the same TP you might use in your house, but it is MADE to break down more readily. Don't waste your money on the RV Butt Napkins or whatever brand name is trying to tell you you HAVE to have RV TP, just look for septic safe TP.
YES, RV life ruined vacations for me too. My oldest daughter and I now hate going to hotels. Used to love going to hotels. My wife and youngest daughter still enjoy hotels.
We have been full full-time for 3 years now. We are retired and have traveled more to visit family and friends. We have spent more quality time with all of them now than when they lived close. Would not trade it for anything!
we are not retired, but the RV 100% lets us extend our radius to visit parents, the kids, and friends. We will not be changing course anytime soon, we love this lifestyle.
Should have gone with something smaller than a 5th wheel. We have a terrific Airstream and the cost are far less than the house. It also made us live smaller!
@@OurRoadLessTraveled no unfortunate next will be New York for us .. enjoy chatting with you all . This will be our 3rd huddle. We donate to tod and Sheila every month.. we believe in the dream . Not full time yet been 2 to 3 months a year since the 80s. Just getting our ducks in a row .. there’s a penny at your foot run with it .. :)
Most of the time it is NOT cheaper! However you have a lot more freedom! If you don’t like where ya are just move! A lot easier. We just had fun w/ my kids this weekend & back to our base camp.
If we were part time, that is the route we would go. Being full time, I like the Diesel for two reasons. its my opinion the engine life is longer on a diesel and has better resale. second, we are subject to 14 hour travel days. being able to use the fuel islands in truck stops is a very nice convenience. Plus we save on the fuel with open roads so the cost is close to what gas would be.
You had me at sunshine and rainbows ❤😂 We traveled around for the first 6 months and realized that we, in fact, do not like traveling with our entire home 😅 🤷♀️
@@OurRoadLessTraveled We are settling where we are now since we’re close to our kids and grandkids. We plan to either buying another house or property to set our fifth wheel on and get a smaller class C to travel around with. But we also have a vision of opening a RV park for Veterans (but not exclusively) so they can come to us for the help they need. We’ll see where God takes our next chapter 😁
I don’t think you guys should feel like you need to tell people you’re not homeless. Clearly you are not. Just disregard those comments and live your life. Peace.
Angel Soft....along with laundry detergent and calgon water softener Full-time RVING since 2019. I'm asked how long I plan on doing this.....until I can't.
us too. we love it. also look at the new Techno RV fuel card. it will let you use a credit or debit card to pay for fuel so you get to double dip on cash back offers. its about the same discount as open roads. technorv.com/products/technorv-fuel-card
So far mudflap has not been as good of savings as open roads. It does fill in the gaps between open roads stations, so we will keep it. Wish we were crossing paths in SC.
thanks, it was a last minute thing. next couple weeks are so busy for us we may not put anything out. but we will have an update on why we may take some time off.
That it would solve all your problems, we have owned a 4 bedroom home, 2 bath, finished basement home on 3 acres of land for 30 years, just sold it getting ready to be Full Time, we just bought our New RV, been RVing for many years, I do believe it will be less upkeep than all I have done homesteading for the last 30years However I don't believe it will solve all my problems I know there is repairs and unfortunate occurances, nothing will ever solve ALL your problems. Oh by the way we bought a NEW East to West Ahara 2024, I really like the New graphics. Have you had any issues with your Ahara? Thanks, I do watch your channel!!👍😊
@@trailduster24Nice, what model Ahara? We love our 365RL. back to the problem solving. We see a lot of comments by people thinking that it will solve their money problems and be cheaper, or it will help raise their kids. It just wont. You have to form those habbits and work on them, and RV doesn't make them just happen. that is what we were getting at.
@@OurRoadLessTraveled we got a 378BH-OK, so that when we come home, we will be able to have sleep overs with our grandchildren, and while traveling we can use it as a storage area, plus I like it has a 2nd bathroom and outdoor kitchen
@@trailduster24Love that model. We almost went with the Takoda, but it was just a bit too large and we dont have grand kids, yet. It may be in our future in a couple years.
Sadly as per your statement about collecting money from the government, unemployment compensation is not from the government, you and your former employer paid those monies in advance!
there are a lot of people that think moving into a more simple life with less things to worry about will solve their problems. mostly we see it in FB and Reddit posts.
We do some kind of “repair” monthly.
Is too. Either fixing ng or modifying something
😂 RVing won’t solve our A.D.D. problems as part-timers either! But we do get to love our Charmin when we come home. 😜 Great video!
Oh and Jarrett would’ve taken the door out before calling somebody too! Lol Gotta do what ya gotta do
Thanks. we take our Charmin with us. Nothing worse that a sore tush
gotta love them. even if you want to straggle them sometimes.

@@OurRoadLessTraveled the Kitty genie is similar to the diaper. I believe only at Target.
We will be in Astoria area till Labor Day

We use Charmin and unique tank treatments with plenty of water. No clogs and no smells going on 2 years now.

#13 - You must have extensive knowledge of Lickey Lockey technology. 😉👍
I do. have 2 certifications in it.

We both still work and need the extra space. A lot went into our decision to go with a 5th wheel. Thanks for the comment and watching.
Love KleenTank’s “recipe”! Been mixing our own chemical treatment for about 5 years and never have had a problem. Plus it smells better!!
we love the smell of pine sol. it just smells cleaner
Huddles are our vacation. :). Class a has been our choice for decades.
we love the switch it up huddles. are yall going to SC in April?

Hotels are way too expensive… Rv life is much easier travel.
We have a 7.3 Godzilla no more Diesel!
I agree, I would not say its cheaper. It is way more fun and much better quality of life. For us anyway. Love the freedom.
hotels are expensive, we had a bigger problem getting our dog into one than anything. that is what prompted getting the first TT we owned in 2019.
If we were part time, that is the route we would go. Being full time, I like the Diesel for two reasons. its my opinion the engine life is longer on a diesel and has better resale. second, we are subject to 14 hour travel days. being able to use the fuel islands in truck stops is a very nice convenience.

Charmin all they way lots of water is a must !
yeah, i feel like that is a missing step most RVers are not told. Thanks for watching and the comment.

are you still traveling, or just slimmed down what you bring with you? thanks for watching.

Great topics. Enjoyed your video. Safe travels
Thank you.
15:48 Hold my beer 🍺 😊
ha ha
I have used the home paper scene 1970
what is the home paper?
I don’t think you guys should feel like you need to tell people you’re not homeless. Clearly you are not. Just disregard those comments and live your life. Peace.
Thanks for the support. have a great day?

Thank you for watching. the older stuff is not that great. let us know if you have any questions.
Great topics, loved the ending! Let us know what you think of mud flap. Safe travels.
So far mudflap has not been as good of savings as open roads. It does fill in the gaps between open roads stations, so we will keep it. Wish we were crossing paths in SC.

yes, its really sad how many people dont understand what happens to the money they loose in payroll taxes or the cost to a business for hiring them.
WE go to AZ for BLM this winter Florida it sucked rain you need to book ahead like u said
we will probably do TX this year for winter. We did it last year and loved it. Much slower pace than FL this year.
Who thinks it will solve all your problems???
