  • We drive through Texas and experience almost every kind of weather you can expect...except for snow! Thank goodness for that!
    We are not Snow Birds but we do like nice warm weather and heading west is the best.
    Come join our Facebook Group, Big Truck Big Travels to get more details on our travels such as Alaska itinerary, annual costs and such.

    RV Camping
    We like to "Switch it Up" between resorts and campgrounds and boondocking is always an option.
    We draw inspiration from Keep Your Daydream KYD, Less Junk More Journey, Finding Our Someday and Changing Lanes. We normally travel in an HDT similar to RUclips channels Suite Travels, Switch it Up and Watts on Wheels. I also get some ideas from the editing style of Happily Ever Hanks (Happilyeverhanks) #thankshanks and believe it or not, I actually learned something from MRBeast Mr Beast video's as well.
    Our journey is the destination. We want to share in our experiences in our discovery of What's Next.
    I get my music from:
    Epidemicsound.com
    Amazon Shop (no extra charge to you)
    A convenient way to see (or buy) the items you see in the video's which may help in your adventure.
    www.amazon.com/shop/bigtruckb...
    We use the TSD card for diesel fuel and save a bundle each time we fill up our Big Rig. We also use it to fill up our Onan generator.
    The big blue boards (XL version) we use sometimes to get us "un-stuck" is from:
    Gotreads.com
    Our Class C is built by Thor Motorcoach on a Ford F550 chassis. It's a production build Magnitude model XG32. We tow our red Jeep Wrangler Sahara behind it. We've made some modifications to it so that we can boondock comfortably. Lithium batteries, Victron 3000w multi-plus inverter, dual alternators charge while traveling and mods to the water system greatly enhance it's boondocking capabilities.
    Our extreme completely custom 5th wheel is built on a semi-trailer chassis with air suspension and air brakes. Completely loaded it weighs 42,000 lbs rolling down the highway. And we do roll down the highway nearly every week. You see, we believe that if your home has wheels they should be used.
    Vehicles:
    2016 Volvo VNL780 "Voyager"
    2016 Smart fortwo "Pathfinder"
    2019 SpaceCraft Custom built semi-trailer 5th wheel "Orion"
    2023 Thor Magnitude XG32 Class C "Curiosity"
    2017 Jeep Wrangler Sahara "Artemis"
    Power system:
    3250 watts of solar with Panasonic panels
    30.1 KWH of Lithium batteries
    2- 4K watt Magnum Inverters deliver power as if we are on shore power
    2- 4K watt 240v Cotek Inverters deliver additional power for our LG Mini split HVAC and stove
    Coachnet is our roadside assistance company we use but hopefully we don't use them too often. LOL
    We are not sponsored by Whataburger but I do enjoy them anytime I can get my hands on one. They used to be just out of Texas but they have expanded.

    Being from West Texas, i can help you with the white pickup enigma. It gets very hot in the summer time. A white pickup is not as hot in the extreme heat. Also a lot of the big oil companies buy fleets of pick ups. Usually all in one color, white.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  2 месяца назад +1

      Thanks, Debbie. We figured that was the reason but it's just so weird to see SOOO many in the area. But it makes sense since it's all about the oil in West Texas. Appreciate your comment and clarifying that for us.

    It’s not often you see someone with enough Fresh water hose get water from the next state. The most organised RVs we have ever seen.
    We are so pleased to see your channel grow so much since we started watching you all the way from Tasmania before your Alaskan travels. It’s a direct result of your quality video production and commentary. Not to mention some bad jokes along the way.
    Always looking forward to your next one, every Friday down here.

It might be a small state but there is something around every corner with no straight roads in between. You would love it for the scenery and walks.

    I love all the wildflower footage. "He who has a watch knows the time, but he who has two watches, does not know the time." Having two GPS devices can be just as confusing. We can't always trust our GPS either. We've been in that area of Texas. When I saw Wills Point, I knew where you were. We stayed in the Thousand Trails park in Lake Tawakoni. It's really pretty there, but we have a membership, so it doesn't cost us anything nightly to stay. I enjoy your videos. Congratulations on your milestone for subscribers!

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  2 месяца назад +2

      Great comment on the time, Phyllis. Thanks. We usually take each GPS directions with a grain of salt and confirm with map! We have never stayed at Lake Tawakoni but we have up at Lake Texoma. Nice area. Thank you.

    I enjoy your company and your travels. I am a retired Brit who used to travel widely around the world, but was based in Santa Rosa, Ca., so it's great to revisit places that I've visited before and discover new places.
    I'm really jealous that you're going to Savannah - it's the classiest city in the USA. You must visit the theatre there. It's been beautifully renovated......and I had the privilege od seeing John Prine there.
    Keep on trucking.
    Thanks.

    I like watching your channel because you actually travel and aren’t trying to sell everything-Most of these RUclips people aren’t doing 10 minutes of their 20 minute videos trying to sell stuff-I don’t watch many of them anymore or I fast forward through the commercial -
    We went from Tucson to Las Cruces on Easter Monday on interstate 10 -But we didn’t see you driving-I would have loved to see you rig in motion ⭐️☀️🌵🇺🇸

    I'm a trucker, and I've spent most of the last decade based in central Texas. I have a few observations:
    The area of I-20 in western Texas where the oil fields are is the Permian Basin. And yes, white trucks are prevalent; they stay cooler in the Texas sun.
    I-20, exit 301 (in Clyde, TX) has a Whataburger... WITH TRUCK PARKING!
    I've eaten at that Whataburger you showed in Weatherford... at 3 AM, when there's room to get a rig into the shopping center parking lot.
    If you're looking to head east on I-30 from I-20, the best bet is to stay on I-20 through the Metroplex (DFW) past I-45, then take I-635 up to I-30. This will bypass a WHOLE LOT of traffic. That said, unless you're rolling through between 1AM-5AM, you're going to hit traffic.
    And I must say that I love your VNL 780.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  2 месяца назад

I think too many gps's is a bad thing. I rode with him for a year when he was an 18 wheeler driver and now almost 6 years in our 40' Class A. It's an adventure for sure!!! Have fun.

    In your last video, the stop sign at the traffic light is common outside of the US. It is for when the traffic light is inop or turned off. The person was honking behind you because you were stopped at a green light. Ignore the stop sign when at a traffic light.

From speaking with you earlier, we figured the car right behind was steering on turns but not sure why so close. Ok...makes sense to insure no one cuts in. That was a long load. Not sure how you guys did it for so many years. Wow! It's impressive. Safe travels to you.

    I watch religiously.
    Something that bothered me was a video a month ago when you got the truck stuck in a soft spot. He got so irritated and yelled. She was yelled at and i coukd see she was super uncomfortable. I totally get we are all human and sh*t goes bad.
    I've seen sooo many videos and I love watching you both and honestly, I love the way his kindness is and the way he talks. I'm 48 and y'all seen like mom and dad and that comfort, I guess.
    So when he snapped off, it really threw me back. Every video I've watched since then, I think of that. I think to myself, "Is that him?", but I see him in all the other videos.
    U both seen like so chill and just easy going and thats what drew me to your channel and why I kept watching. So when I seen him snap off, I think it was just so unexpected and I seen some other side of someone i didn't expect. I wanted to ground him and make him stand in the corner (lololol).
    I just had to finally get that off my chest. Don't block me, because I do enjoy watching and I envy the life you both have. It's a life I can only hope to have because well....I'm just a waste of space. I'm no person to ever judge - more so on edge with life and maybe because of how life has treated me. You both have brought positive in my brain.
    I'll be here as long as you are and as long as you'll have me.
    I don't know what y'all used to do for work, but its gotta be expensive to travel like u do. One day I want that.

      Thank you very much for your time watching the channel. It was frustrating to get stuck because the truck did not perform as it was supposed to. We spent a lot of money to fix it, and it seemed like it was a waste. We may have not set the traction correctly after watching the video. It's all good, we'll get it corrected. Appreciate your comments. Glad you're along on the journey.
