      @@MathersOnTheMap this past summer we enjoyed our cross country trip but the area we loved was South Dakota. Mount Rushmore, Needles highway, Badlands, I can’t remember all of what we did but it was an amazing experience. Badlands was crazy beautiful and we boon-docked immediately outside the park, I can’t even explain in words the beautiful sunrise/set. South Dakota has so much to see and do, truly recommend it.

    Wonderful video & list. We've thoroughly enjoyed watching your adventures. Looking forward to more. May we suggest, Ozark National Scenic Riverways in our beautiful state of Missouri. Also, we have many lovely springs & caves to explore, here. Other travelers we watch/follow have called the Ozarks a "hidden gem." Safe travels!

    Hi guys, I love your videos. I’m about done with my van conversion and came across an issue at some of the RV sites. They require the vehicle be registered as an RV and won’t allow conversion vans without the registration. Just wondering if you guys registered yours and if you have any suggestions or recommendations?

    You guys are getting some good miles on the van! A trip to the Pacific Northwest is worth a few miles. Some magnificent hiking. You could plan on doing Vancouver, Canada as part of the same trip. YTer SUV RVing covers the whole western part of the US very well with regards of things to do, see, hikes, etc... So long as you are on the road, adding experiences, ya can't really go that wrong! Happy travels!

    Wondering what credit card you think is the best for van travel. With fuel purchases so frequent is there a card that is good for hotel points in case you need a break from the road? Would love to see you do a break down of how you use cards as you travel and manage points/rewards. Also, love the "day in the life" type video.

    • @MathersOnTheMap
      @MathersOnTheMap  3 года назад

      Hey Jenny! I love this question, for fuel I use my citi premier card earning 3x on gas. This can also be used for hotels but I use the chase sapphire reserve a lot as well (more for travel related purchases) and my Hyatt card since were big into Hyatt hotels.
      Honestly though I manage a lot of cards and try to rack up points and much as I can. This is a good video idea

    You are a couple that appears to share the same "brain" with myself and my girlfriend. 😂
    We covered much of the same ground as you guys across North America. For us, Los Cabos is 1a and Todos Santos is 1b.
    We loved your initial thought to leave the van and return every year. We just purchased a quiet beach front condo in the corridor near San Jose del Cabo.
    Two suggestions for you next trip to Baja..
    1. Scuba dive around Land's end and the "Arch"
    2. Hike the Sugar Port Trail to Punta Lobos. It is a breataking view of the Pacific Ocean!
    btw... I took your suggestion (must have been Taylor's) from a previous comment and asked the girl (Andrea) to marry me! 😃

    • @MathersOnTheMap
