RV LIFE NEIGHBOR A REAL A$$. WE did NOT Expect this. HDT BIG Rig Travel. RV Lifestyle. Fulltime RV

- Опубликовано: 20 мар 2024
- Leaving Las Vegas behind, we head back to the wilderness and the red rock confines of the Valley of Fire State Park to boondock on Lake Mead within the Lake Mead Recreation Area at Stewarts Point. What used to be a fledgling lake front community is now a fantastic camping and boondocking area on the water...if you can get there over some potholes and bumpy roads it's a nice area.
We expected dry camping but we didn't expect our neighbors! Man oh man! There are 3 of them that we counted and they are all a bunch of A$$es. Sondra got pictures!
A secret trail? Of the 7 wonders? Did I hear that correctly? Sondra has found this secret trail on All Trails App so we are looking forward to hiking this scenic, secret trail...but what surprise awaits us? You'll see...
We also may need Matt's Off Road Recovery MORR for this one. It gets ugly fast!
From the East, we came out West to enjoy a nice warm winter season and to experience some first time activities for us. Although the winter weather has been up and down with temps in the 70's to down in the 40's we have enjoyed every minute of it. Our trip is over halfway finished for our westward trek but we have seen and enjoyed some epic adventures.
We are not Snow Birds but we do like nice warm weather and heading west is the best.
We will raise our solar panels and brush them off to power our stay and experience these epic treasures of Mother Nature.

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.

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:

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"

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

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.
BIg Truck Big Travels video's are based on our personal experience and not meant nor portrayed as experts in anything we do or say. It's our life on the road and our opinions are not meant to be construed as advice. Enjoy life on the road.
I love that you can laugh and enjoy each other without out getting mad if things don’t go exactly as planned.
We have our moments but we enjoy this lifestyle so it's all worth it! Thank you
@@bigtruckbigtravels definitely. I hope I didn’t sound as if I was pointing fingers. I was just trying to make a point about how we used to receive information whether that be from magazines, newspapers, tv or word of mouth vs today.
Anyways I can completely understand why you’d want to share your experiences with others. You two, like so many others including myself, are truly blessed.
✌🏽🇺🇸🙏
Between comparing "POOP" and "That's No Bull", you two
are on a roll !! Thanks for taking us along, it is absolutely
beautiful. Even if it was not a secret.....lol
The reason you are on " not a trail" is because you are on a secret
trail !! And that is why Sandra is "Liken It" !
Woohoo! Love it, Stephan!! Definitely not a secret but lots of fun. Appreciate your comments and your time watching the channel. 😃
Awesome! You two are a riot - just love the humor. The slot canyons and scenery are amazing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Awesome place to explore.
Sondra deserves a big meal, that she doesn’t have to cook, for doing all that work! Another great video guys! 😎
You got that right! She deserves a night off! Hmmm... where's the closest Whataburger?!?
DITTO!
I always get a few quality chuckles from you two! Enjoying your videos
I always chuckle at the bad puns and then give an approving "Boooooo".
Awesome! Thank you!
That's a beautiful area! I loved the donkeys. We used to raise miniature donkeys, so that was a treat to see some wild ones.
So cool! Thanks, Phyllis for sharing. They were cute... and pretty quiet except for a little braying at night.
Way to go Sondra. I knew you would show him you could do it, even if he tried to trip you up! You guys had my heart racing when you were hiking off the trail and in those slot canyons. I was sure you were not going to find your way back. I imagine that those rocks look very similar when you get lost! Thanks for taking us along. I’m now sorry that we skipped that park when we were in the area, but glad I got to see it thru your eyes. As always, this channel is something people should never miss. Thanks for the best Thursday entertainment there is. Looking forward to the Mojave Desert adventure next week. Take care.
Thanks, Christy. Sondra was determined to show that she could do it better than the first time 2 years ago. She's a trooper! It's a great park to visit, lots of fun. The rocks do start to all look very familiar.
Awesome video again. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you taking the time to watch the channel.
Thank you for all the precious pictures on the trails ... my eyes had a feast and good memories now. =) Smiles from North OK Valley in BC where the sun is shine and its 57f thats a little warmer then normal but NO white stuff on the ground for a few days now. Hello Spring.
Glad you enjoyed it and hope that Spring is just around the corner. Love the OK Valley.
You 2- I’m shaking my head😊Good job Sondra‼️👍😊 LOTS of beautiful scenery today👍Thank you👍
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment. 😃
Great video "and that's no bull"😅
😁 love it!
We had a lot of solar power and always took 20 gallons of extra water over what our rig held. If anyone came in and parked within sight of us we packed up and hit the road. A couple of times we left at two or three in the morning. 95% of the time everything ran fine, but we did have some run ins with nutty people, but each time our dog set them straight and sent them packing, or looking for help. He was well trained and very obedient, but very dangerous. That's one nice rig you have.
Thank you. One can never have enough water or peace. Safe travels and appreciate your time watching the channel. 😃
You guys are so funny!! Loved the hike. Very beautiful!! Hope you got "unstuck". 💜
Thank you. Just having fun... except when we're rim deep in the sand!
I really enjoyed your video this was the first time I've watched it brought back a lot of memories I was born and raised in Las Vegas and spent a lot of time at Lake Mead and all around that area thank you very much enjoy yourselves and we will enjoy these videos keep up the good work
Thank you very much. We're excited to have you along on the journey and glad it brings back good memories.
Love Valley of Fire, one of my favorites parks! Happy trails!
Thanks, Kathleen! Great area to visit.
Great video guys, some quality puns.
Glad you like them! Appreciate the comments.
Omg what an awesome rig! Absolute Beauty! Good for you folks👍.
Thank you so much. We enjoy every minute of it and love to share our experiences.
H
Who made the rig please
@@BadBrianMaxey SpaceCraft out of Missouri.
I agree with Sondra. They probably did get tired of rescuing ppl and just put the signs up. Saying that from the viewpoint of having had to be “rescued” thinking we didn’t look too bad , but the rangers thought we needed a ride back to our car. So thankful for their experience and wisdom, and of course the ride.
That was nice they "offered" the ride for you. It can get hot in a hurry out there. Glad you're OK.
Beautiful video! You guys are too cute! Thank you for sharing your amazing adventures with us!!!
Thank you, Karen. Really appreciate your time watching the channel. 😃 Excited to have you along on the journey. 😊
Finally back watching the videos been super busy with college
Don't skimp on college. That's important but we really appreciate your time watching the channel. 😃
I love hiking slot canyons so really enjoyed your hiking adventure today; I love that scenery/red rocks. We’ve been to Valley of Fire a few times and would return again! I enjoy your laughs!
Glad you enjoyed it! VOF is a fun day, Debra.
Thanks for the reply
We just can’t get enough of the Arizona Utah area absolutely beautiful. Keep finding new places to go see you on the road.
Thanks, John. We really enjoy traveling. Appreciate your time watching the channel.
"No bull" ...........LOL I love a good pun. :-) Thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it and happy that you enjoy the puns too... there's going to be more of them! 😆 🤣
Really enjoyed this. Use to camp in this area as a kid. Burros use to stand a camper door and we couldn’t get out!
Ok, that's funny. We've been stuck inside from bison and elk but never a burro!
What a great place to camp, just gorgeous! I was so excited to see you wearing a Clemson Tiger shirt David, Clemson is just 15 miles north of where we live. Good job with the ramps Sondra! Sure hope you were able to dig yourself out with not too much trouble. Hope to see you on the road one day, safe travels!
Go Tigers! Great place to camp... except the soft spots! Thanks for watching.
It was nice meeting you both at Stewarts Point. Very beautiful area.
Thanks for coming by, we enjoyed the chat. Neat area to camp. Safe travels
Another great video. Thanks.
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching the channel.
Beautiful video, it is amazing how the rock formations are formed by water over thousands of years. The west really has some amazing country.
Glad you enjoyed it. It is so unique from the east but both are beautiful in different ways. 😍
Another entertaining video with interesting views and a cliffhanger at the end!
Hope you enjoyed it. Thanks 😄
I'm torn between being jealous of your awesome rig & terrified of you camping near me! Look out! GIANTS!!! 😱😄
😆 🤣 😂 Fear not that which you do not see but hope that you do not see US coming around the corner! Thanks
@@bigtruckbigtravels I love all your understorage & wondered where one can get that done, how you got your chosen RV on top of that built-out flatbed (or is it part of the RV?) & did you put special tires on your smartcar so it's more off-road worthy? If you've done vids on these topics please point me to them. Thanx & safe travels!
@celestepalm6949 this may help with general questions. Thanks

@@bigtruckbigtravels👍
The video through the slot canyons was incredible. I love all the corny jokes. They make me smile. Keep them coming
Thank you! Will do! Glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful scenery! 👍❤
Yes it was! Thanks for watching the channel.
I’ve been all over Valley of Fire. I went on hike one day, followed a marked trail then went off if and went down into the canyon floor and hopped on and off, scrambled up a narrow canyon to get back up. While down below, big horn sheeps were watching me down below probably amused by my efforts. I love this state park!
That is awesome! It's a neat park with some cool hikes.
You guys are funny 😂 I love watching u guys !
Thank you!
Good job! This video ROCKS!
Woohoo, Peter! Nice.
Great content and love your humor 😃
Thank you so much 😁
I love ya'lls sense of humor. 🥰✌
Another great video love when your on your hikes
Glad you enjoyed it. Lots of fun. Thanks for watching the channel.
Muy bonitos sus videos los kiero a David y a Sandra saludos desde Phoenix Arizona
Hola! We enjoy our time in AZ and the Southwest. Gracias for watching.
FANTASTIC VIDEO WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PLACE !! WOW !! I LOVE YOU GUYS !! BE BLESSED BE SAFE 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👊✊👍🙏
Thanks so much, really means a lot to us.
Sending support, love, and kindness from Lexington, USA.
Thanks, Brandy. We need all the help you can send us! 🥰
Thank you for taking me on your journey! Its so gorgeous almost seems unreal. Those red rocks get me all the time
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks
Beautiful place Awesome video
Thank you very much!
You're amazing, enjoy watching your video❤ You should have your own TV show. What a big hit you guys are lovely couple. life is great.❤❤❤❤
Thank you. Really appreciate your comments and your time watching the channel. 😆 not sure about the TV show... our living room may get crowded!
New subscriber, as seeing the Spacecraft & Volvo, I thought it was Todd & Sheila in theirs, but then saw 'Valley of Fire' and thought I'd watch, so thanks for the uplifting video! Having driven many a Volvo rigs, and most every other brand on the market, it made me feel good sitting in the seat with Sondra holding the camera! Some years back, a group of us (4 couples) drove from home (western Canada) down to Utah, with our ATV's in the Moab area, and did some long day exploring on our quads, having seen LOTS of red rock, and it's beauty. Lots of slot canyons, sand, cactus...but no Burro's or wild cows! We have many memories, as we toured down there four different times in Utah, and that was back with our F450 dually, Arctic Fox slide in camper and pulling our 18' enclosed trailer. We've moved to a Class A Tiffin now, so we spend more time in southern Arizona now, splurging on some RV resort time, and enjoying all the amenities. We still love to hike, and I very much have enjoyed Photography for decades, so I get some long walks in the desert in, when time allows, and this year the desert was very 'green' with all the winter rains, and not as many flowers as last year. Soon hope to go with the same group over to check out souther South Dakota, see the Teton's, Yellowstone and Glacier National park. As I'm sure you've seen, the diesel prices in some locations is crazy expensive, with California being ridiculous, so we rarely travel through that state any more unfortunately. Nonetheless, I'll be catching your video's from time to time now, and see what direction you're taking from one place to the next. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for finding us. Those are great trips. We volunteered for 4 months in Yellowstone and thoroughly enjoyed it. We couldn't believe how green the desert was this year. Thanks for the comments and safe travels this year.
I was out there the same time you were. I remember seeing your camper.
That is sooo cool! Small world.
Beautiful, Beautiful great video guys 👍
Thank you so much 😀
My wife and I love traveling around with our camper! Our daughter, Jennifer Holm, is the artist singing at the 29 second to the one minute mark. Congratulations to you for choosing great music for your videos!! I love your rig!!
Your daughter's singing is beautiful! Sondra and David chose well - I enjoy this song every week.😊
That is awesome! And sooo cool. Really enjoy the music. Tell her she's great! Wow! Such a small world. Thank you 😊
I was getting scared, so i subscribed..lo l😂 great video. Safe travels
Awesome! Thank you! 😆 🤣
We enjoyed meeting you at Voyager Tucson and appreciated your patience as you answered our endless questions about your rig & travels. Looking forward to following your adventures. Lee & Rebecca & Annabelle.
Anytime. Glad you stopped by to chat. Safe travels
Really enjoy 25:46 25:48 seeing all your adventures, thank you for sharing. can't wait to see where you go next
Glad you enjoyed it, Brian. Thanks. We're always on the road so more to come. Thanks
Good job on those ramps Sondra.😊
She did real good!
I agree, they have potential to pinch fingers for sure. I must watch other videos as I'm sure you must show the car driving on and off at some point.
Thanks again for this week and really laugh about the title!!😂
Glad you enjoyed it! We got some chuckles too! 😃
Thank you been watching you both now here from Cathlamet WA state.
Awesome! Thank you!
My wife and I really enjoy you two's travels😊 had our Whataburger today😊😊
That is awesome! Hope you enjoyed it. Appreciate your comments.
Sondra you did a hell of a good job with the ramps ? Lol👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
They looked heavy and awkward. Way to go Sondra!
She did great... not very funny video content but a great job!
what beauty of landscapes
It was gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching.
Wow, David and Sondra how gorgeous were all those rocks. I hope you didn’t take them for “granite”. As for the wild cows, I think that’s “Bull”. 😂 keep the dad jokes and great videos coming.
Woohoo! Ok, Mike that is a "solid" pun with the granite...I may steal that next time. 😆 🤣 Thanks
We just left there. So much fun. Now we are at Vegas tt . Came here to get an Adventure membership. Maybe we will see you at a park one day. Have fun safe travels
Just missed us... by a few weeks. Adventure Pass gives you access to way more parks... some years we'll add it depending on our schedule. Safe travels and hope to see you on the road.
There is no truck more comfortable than a Volvo to spend years driving! I have owned a fair few and loved them all.
Love your rig!!
Thank you, Yvette. We love our rig (home) too. The layout really suits our travel/lifestyle style.
@@bigtruckbigtravels Total admiration for you guys!!
I drove OTR for 10 years (my 50's). Never again! I am a homebody!
Stay safe and much love!!
We are watching this from our campground in Cortez Florida. You camped at the Lake Mead recreation area where we did. At least you got to see the burros. All we got to see was the burro poop!😂 Valley of Fire is Awesome!!! Loved it and we want to go back. We are really enjoying this video! Great job!
Jim and Sue
Thanks, Jim & Sue for the comments and appreciate your time watching the channel. That is a neat area. Florida is a nice place for winter.
@@bigtruckbigtravels we only come down for the month of April. Gotta start out in Quartzite and then do a little skiing with the fam at home. We don’t have horses anymore but getting away in March and April avoids the “mud season”! We binge watched a couple episodes last night. Jim does the thumbs up on the TV and I do it on my phone through our Gypsy Mountaineers. We double up!
😂😂 You two! Thanks for taking us along. I need to go back to Valley of Fire. That trail, among others are on my bucket list!
Lots of fun, Kathleen... but not so secret! 😆 😆 Take water... it's dry out there. Appreciate your comments and your time watching the channel. 😃
I enjoy your adventures and humor...even if his jokes are corny! 😂😂😂 Happy Trails!
I love Stewart's Point! Do that exact drive several times a year. We get right out above the water (I've got a 32' bumper pull). Excellent choice! Be careful in monsoon season, storms come rolling off the hills and gusts can get bad, my buddy had his 5er blown off its stands, and almost rolled.
Wow! That's crazy winds! We'll watch out.
Cheers from snowy French alps. Yep,we do watch your channel too , down here. 👌
Oh my & Bonjour mes amis! Are you still in winter? Love that area. I have a cap from the Mont Blanc area. Thanks for watching the channel.
10:57 "Poop play by play!" 😂😂
Lol 😆 😆 that was funny!
I love you all. Non stop dad jokes, puns and double ontrondras.
Thank you. It doesn't stop! Lol 😆 😆 Appreciate your comments.
Thank you guys for the video I am a new subscriber hello from Stuttgart Arkansas
You're welcome. Graduated from Fayetteville so great to have you aboard. Thank you
I think you guys have the best videos out there.
Thanks, Scott. We appreciate your comments.
Geez what an amazing home. It's incredible.
Thank you. We love the ability to change our backyard with the seasons.
You got me, you got me good with the neighbor joke! I was like what?! They came over and pooped outside of your RV, all three of them? I was like, get ready for it, but my hint up the road didn't click because there are people out there that I would not doubt would do such a thing lol. So glad it wasn't Bull.....Love that spot and glad you are there when Lake Meade has much more water in it. Speaking of Lake Meade, we have one, of many, lakes called Lake Meade in good ole' Suffolk VA. It's fairly big but nothing that size. Gotta get back and finish this! Well, thank you for the natural beauty as usual (even the slots) but it looks like another axle needs to have it's own drive gears? I'm sure the rear one's pulled you out of that, but I'll have to wait and see....you cliffhanger lovers!
😆 🤣 there were hints early in the video, KB... but we thought it would be funny! Glad you enjoyed it... may be another "hanger" next week. We had two interesting weeks on the road!
Good video 😊 don't worry all of us crazy are watching you 🤔😀
😁 thanks 😄
2:20 in Alberta,Canada. Sure enjoy you guys and your adventures. We did much the same thing fir 30 years until our age and health gave out. We are 84 and 83, our last trip was 2020 had to stop because of covid . We had a motorhome and a jeep. I've kept many diarys and wrote a book, from north to south, east to west, all of north America, mexico, and Central America. What fun we had. So keep on traveling, there is so much to see and you can never see it all. We had no house, no stuff except what we carried with us. 😊😊😊
We drove to Panama with our motorhome and jeep. No problem, course it looks like times have changed. Enjoy every sight, sound, do everything you can...
That is very cool, Irene and we are honored to have along on the journey with us. Thanks for watching and sharing your experience.
Good on ya Sondra. Planning ahead 😂😂
You asked if there would be some donkeys - bad ass
Oh, she wanted some ass for neighbors... as long as they were the 4 legged variety. 😆 🤣
Missed you guys! Back to watching 😅
Missed you too! Where were you? Thanks 😄
Great job Sondra
She did great! Thanks for the comment. 😃
Good to see you ramping up Sondra’s training 😅
A little bit of cross training... she's a trooper!
Hey John and Robin from Oklahoma weekend can relate to your parking issues. We always have a parking lot full of people staring at us. We have a four-door single axle freightliner with a 40 foot fifth wheel with one more bet you can’t get in there ha ha
Thanks for sharing, John & Robin. You know exactly what we're talking about! Safe travels, maybe one day we'll see you on the road.
I learn so much from your videos, and it all fires my imagination. "Valley of Fire," "Poverty Flats," and "Maverick Saves Us 2 Cents" sound like names of Johnny Cash songs.
Who knew:
- there was a national day for meatballs? God bless us all on National Meatball Day!.😊
- Lake Mead was once lakeside dwelling? Now it's overrun by poopy asses and wild cattle. No bull!!😂
- there was so much wildlife to be photographed in Fire State Park? Every missed opportunity makes you say, "Gosh darn it."😂
- part of being on the 7 Wonders Trail was wandering as you wondered what the 7 wonders were? The trail is littered with ironic signs.
- being outdoors could inspire so many Dad jokes? Sondra was "lichen" it, and "you rock," David!
Just so you know, I reference your videos in my Transformative Education sessions. You're a rich source of ELA, Geography, History, Math, and yes, humor.😁
Until next Thursday, God's willing, safe travels!👍🏾
Thank you very much. Appreciate your support each week and we're honored that you can find parts of the videos as useful examples in your sessions. Rock on!
We have enjoyed watching your channel since my brother, a former long haul trucker, recommended your channel. You guys are funny on this video!! My wife and I (both retired) have been out in Southwest for 3 months and you guys must be stalking us because youi are going to many of the spots we have done after we did them!!! 😉 We were at Death Valley the day a few weeks ago when it was raining hard that allowed you to kayak there, after which we were in the Las Vegas area (Boulder City) for a month and did a LOT of hiking there, including Valley of Fire twice which allowed us to do most all of the hikes there-- Gorgeous piece of God's creation!!! HOWEVER-- you guys got the EASY version of the 7 Wonders loop. We went a few days after the heavy rains had hit Death Valley and the Nevada area, so the SLOT CANYONS you nicely just walked through were all filled with water and we all had to bushwack up the side cliffs to bypass the flooded slots. Safe travels :)
Oh man! That's a lot of water in the desert! Glad we hit the weather just right... though you guys got some very unique views! Thanks for watching the channel.
Those are feral cattle. That was a big boy you saw at 33.30 or so.
How far is it to the next burger from there?
I really like the videos, keep it up.
Thanks... they were big! We kept our distance!
Way to go Sondra 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Now you don’t have to cook supper . 😂😂❤️❤️
😆 🤣 hmmm... didn't think about that!
New subscriber here, loved your video. Amazing scenery.
Thank you so much, Barbara. Great to have you on the journey.
We found Valley of Fire during a Vegas trip. Beautiful area, and who knew so close to the madness on The Strip. Hope you "Shale" return sometime soon! (groan). Travel safe, and I'll watch for the next one. Cheers! Pete in Arizona - KI7LIL
It's a cool area that you never want to take for "granite". Thanks 😊
Thank you for sharing your experiences & journey that was beautiful to see. Safe Travels 🥰🙋♀️🎒🫏🚙
Glad you enjoyed it, Joyce! Thanks for coming along on the journey.
I need a nap after hiking that trail (virtually) with you 😂
Get plenty of rest, Stacie... we're hitting the road!
Clemson ?? Really.. You need a Florida State Seminole shirt!!😁enjoyed ur video.
Thank you!
Y’all both rock, and I’m lichen the video😂😂😂!
😆 🤣 love it!
Well at least you were able to back your extra-long rig out of your site despite not being able to go forward....Most all RV parks are not designed for a long large RV that has any type of motorized vehicle pulling the RV or pulling a large toad behind them. The big RV owners won't find much real space unless you invest in a luxury RV resort where you own the site and have the $$$$$ to throw around for your RV, By the way you have a beautiful set up right down to the tiny smart car on the tractor - very clever!
I manage a small older (1960's) RV park down in WIllcox Arizona and I can safely park a 45' diesel pusher with either a toad or a trailer on the back end, in my 50 amp pull-thru sites, but it's gonna be a full spot with a 90 degree left hand turn with zero room to spare until you hit the chain link fence as you pull forward to exit. It just takes going slow and having a spotter, and it's an easy thing to get back on the road again. I have never had anyone complain about the tight fit or damage from running into anything so I guess the sites are long enough!
Enjoy your stay at lake Mead while the water still exists because something tells me that it may be history by 2050, if not sooner. Willcox is on one of the last natural sweet aquifers left in the state (water from the tap is delicious, no filtering needed) but all of the large agricultural farms in this area are sucking it dry as we speak, which is heartbreaking. It's mostly to water cattle grains, corn, Pistachios, wine grape orchards, etc. Actually, the Vineyards in this area have award winning wines that beat out California and French wines year after year with more vineyards popping up all the time due to the micro-climate here. Personally I'd rather drink clean fresh water than wine any day of the week!
We stop at Apple Annie's in Wilcox for some deliciousness. Would we fit in your park? We like the area in that part of Arizona. Thanks for watching.
What an awesome woman. 👍 with ramps!!
She's a trooper for sure! Did a great job! Thanks 😄
You two are awesome! Love the jokes.
Thanks so much! I think I'm wearing everyone out with the "bad Dad jokes" and now they're funny! 😆
OMGOSH, you two 'quack' me up !!!! I'm glad I took a "lichen" to yall first time I ever watched !!!! And I'm sure Sondra is still trying to figure out "'what a burger" David is !!!! What would make Sondra think her neighbor's were a bunch of as***????
lol that was hilarious !!!
Thanks, Marlene... and she was taking pictures! We had fun with it.
Wow. You have Prevost owners, Toter owners, giant toy hauler owners, and they all roll in feeling like they are king shit. Then you show up in that rig and just makes all the others rethink their decisions. Amazing unit. Beautiful... Good for you two!!!
Thank you. Prevost are nice, I love their slides.
The 1000-point turn aka "ih eh ih eh ih eh ih eh...."😂
😆 🤣 the only good way to describe that maneuver! Thanks
New here. Yall just popped up so I watched. Got some good laughs at the cheesy jokes. wow beautiful place! Unbelievable Rig y'all have, that's quite a load to take everywhere. Hope the truck wasn't stuck too long. Guess I better Sub & ring that bell!
Thank you for joining us... better late than never! Appreciate your time watching the channel. 😃
Wow, what a rig!
Thanks, Cheryl. It's home.
Stewart’s point is a cool place. We camped out there with our old toy hauler years ago.
Very cool area. So much nicer than we had expected.
Never underestimate a woman ❤
Truth!
Thank you so much for the trip to see the seven wonders! This was a fun trip, especially with the all the “bull poop” going on!
David are you sure you hurt yourself loading the bikes? I think you just wanted to see if Sondra could do your job! She sure fooled you! Don’t underestimate the power of a good woman!! 😂❤❤❤
No comment, Marian on how I hurt myself! 😆 😆 Sondra was a trooper and did great. I was hoping for funny content but she came through with flying colors!
David I think the joke was on you!! 😂😂
I love watching you guys all kinds of ideas on where and what to do when it's finally my turn to go exploring! 😁 are there places where I can just ride in my car instead of all that hiking? Thanks for all your content. I think i will leave all the hiking to you, too 😂
Thanks for watching. There were sights to see from the road and plenty of pull outs too. The area had something for everyone.
