Why You Are Wrong If You MUST Make Reservations (RV Life)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- We hit the open road in our RV, but what we didn't plan on was the chaos that ensued! We had no reservations and no idea what we were doing. This turned into a Labor Day disaster as we struggled to find a place to stay for the night. Watch this video to see all the drama unfold!
This video documents the entire debacle and includes footage of us showing up to random RV parks begging for a night to stay; PLUS useful tools that can pull you out of a pinch in similar scenarios.

RV Water Pressure Regulator

You guys are too funny. When i travel i travel w/o making reservations.
Hi Dexter!!!
Why do you continuelly hang out in FL? Last place I'd go.
Yay! We went to Alaska in July for a month with no reservations other than Denali for 4 days. Everyone said we were nuts, but we didn't have any problems at all!!
We love watching you guys’ videos. We also appreciate that you put out a video every week.
We’re local travelers in NorCal, but dream of traveling farther and maybe long term. Maybe we’ll see y’all on the road one day. Until next weeks video Hanks. We hope you’re enjoying St. Augustine, their Christmas is pretty amazing, even though it’s too early. You can always peek at last year’s on RUclips.
Ps are y’all travel nursing too? Are those assignments far and few? Another dream of mine.
Do you guy read the comments? Love the vids, very well done, have a question, why not get a washer/dryer combo for the RV, save a ton of money in the long run. You guys always have the greatest tips due to your experiences and mishaps.
😮 12:36 🎉😢😢6😮7😮y😅7😮 12:36 5u8o77😢😢😢@@jeannespiess74999y777t 12:36 🎉🎉😢h😅 78 I rttrtt😮6trttt66756😮6😮66ztcoz e7ay😊rss6😅ai😊😊
I've been a film and video editor for over thirty years, and I have to say, you two rock at production techniques, editing skills and story telling prowess. Not bad for two by profession nurses! As a new RV owner, I've enjoyed your channel so much.
I second that! 👆
I noticed that as well . Just about when I think it’s overkill, then I’m made happy by the extra effort to show me something photographic
WHOOP WHOOP EMS FAM HERE. Boyfriend and I met on the ambulance, we are moving tomorrow into our 2022 grand design to start our rv life journey!
Use the 330 rule drive no more than 330 miles a day or stop around 3:30 in the afternoon 😊
The regulator tip is top notch!!! Would have never known this great tip!! Thanks Carl
Also be aware of semi’s. We were rear-ended by one back in August as traffic was slowing down. It was following way too close and couldn’t slow as fast as us. It totaled our small camper, luckily no one was hurt. We were loaded up and on our way to a camping trip, ruined our trip and camping for rest of the year. Picking up the new small camper this weekend. :)
Tip for everyone. Become familiar where your hazard button is. Turn it on to alert vehicles behind your tow rig that you’re slowing down.
It always amazes me how many people cut off semi's on the highway. Give em some space people
@@4961Studebaker Another tip: It is illegal to drive in Florida with your hazard lights on. They are only for when you are stopped.
@@donaldbailey5576 by no means do the hazards need to be on for very long to warn others behind you of a slowing down or sudden stop. Much safer to temporarily turn the hazards on, then once slowed down and conform others behind you have slowed turn them off - still safer than tapping the brake lights to alert others - especially if your using the brakes at that moment.
@@4961Studebaker Whatever. Just telling you the Florida law.
This is literally how I live my RV life!!! I’m a traveling surg tech and I never plan. It always works out!! Love it!
What you addressed in this video is why I want the rv lifestyle. My whole life is on a schedule and planned out. I have 2-3 years to kill my debt and then we're headed out and looking forward to just going somewhere without time as a restraint. Just relax and roll with flow. Love your channel, keep it up.
This is so amazing to hear! You sound like you're on a wonderful journey with getting rid of debt, and then hitting the road. You have so much to look forward to and I am sure you're going to find that relaxed timeframe 😊 thank you for your wonderful support and for watching our videos!
Since I met you two, (and am totally obsessed) Can’t wait for Thursdays.
Now being a widow and orphaned after being a RVer, camper my entire life with Mom & Dad then got married to the best man who was bathe same way. So, all of us where always traveling. Then when Mom & Dad retired out they were “Camp Host” at one
of the lakes in the Sierra/Navada mountain range (I just happened to work for 😉) and it was some of our happiest times in life.
Now, being alone (I moved back to California from International Falls MN (where we originally began life and Dad wanted to go back to finish his life. They are all buried now and I’m in a temporary very small duplex (Renting) with my ESA dog Abby, trying to figure out what I want to do in life. Buy a house ?(worst time in history)go into mfg/Mobil home-park or buy a Class C and hit the road but! Being alone at 64 years young! Traveling is really on the top of my list, but just feel it’s not safe, to much work alone, did I say “Not safe” 😊so on and so forth. Or, just hunker down here until the economy turns around 😖 and live vicariously through you.
Want to thank you for the best hour of my life on Thursdays.
Thank you so much for listening to me and you guys being so hilarious.
Keep the rubber down and be safe.
Sincerely
Roberta
When you buy beef jerky at Buc-ee’s, try the jerky from the “Jerky Counter” instead of the prepackaged jerky. The jerky from the counter taste much better.
A good tool to check the tires and wheel hubs temperatures are the inferred heat guns. When you’re not using it for measuring temperatures, you can use the red dot for the cat to chase around.😊
I LOVE watching you guys SO much! You both are my all time favorite videos to watch. I laugh along with you both. So Thanks Hanks for all the great times!
Glad to see Dexter in the video. Hopefully he is fully recovered and back to being such a good friend. I was, however, disappointed that we did not get to see you guys in a Wal-Mart parking lot with no A/C. Just kidding of course, we love watching you each week and we're glad that you got a place to stay each night.
We stopped at a campsite about the same time. They told me that since they are Good Sam listed, they have to save spaces just like the place you went. State parks are a totally different story.
Great video! I really appreciate you driving tips. As a career first responder (32 yr LEO) I find it interesting and frustrating how so many people have stopped pulling over for emergency vehicles. I also enjoyed the whole "wing it" premise of these two episodes. I know personally it is easy to get caught up in the "what if..." and forget to just enjoy life. Thank you two for what you do, I enjoy your humor and light hearted approach.
Thank you Greg! We really appreciate your kindness and great comment :)
Greg, thanks for your service!
Blessings!
Wow Carl! The Water Pressure regulator gauge adjustment is a game changer. 6+years RVing and you learn something everyday. Thanks!
Carle your comment says it all " Rv life may not be the avenue for you". I think this comment with its context really hits home for a lot of RV'ers. We want to get out there to have more freedom and Less stress!!!!
I'm a"just show up girl" lmao a RISK TAKER apparently!? If u end up sleeping in ur vehicle, so what?! it's part of the adventure! :) 💯👍❤️🔥🌞🌻😘
My fingers were really hurting from this cliff I’ve been hanging onto!
Lol
Seriously? Thanks so much for the water regulator education!!!!!!!! I was sure I had a bad one.
Boy you guys got lucky there, the parks around us don’t leave openings for travelers, probably because we’re more of a destination area for campers not thru traffic. Especially holiday weekends
No problem in those states. I challenge you to try Maryland.
Yay, a new video! I’d love to see how you guys organize trips or keep track of info. For places you’ve stayed or plan to go. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a video like that. Enjoyed this too, I’m just a planner.
Hiya! I know it's old-school, but they sell RV site tracker books. I was given one as a Farewell Gift. It has a ton of pages that each have places to put location, site, what site you would like for next visit, a place to write down any thoughts or recommendations. We love it, we are still new so it doesn't have any pages filled in yet but can't wait to put it into service!
No better place to get my weekly dose of crazy!! Another great vid, thanks you 3!
Thank you for mentioning about stopping, I keep running into comments on FB stating how a RAM 1500, GMC 1500 etc. can PULL their 33 foot trailer....The bottom line is a Volkswagen Rabbit can PULL any trailer, perhaps not well, but can PULL it. It is the STOPPING that matters, is the truck really going to be able to stop the trailer in a panic, or in a trailer brake loss.
Absolutely! We totally agree, it is something that is overlooked frequently.
@@HappilyEverHanks Plese do a video on that in the future! You and/or Changing lanes!
Yup Robert, x-actly what I read ALL the time too, so many stupids out there! 🍻
I think I have watched every single one of your videos, and a couple more than once! I love the humor from both of you very much, and the info too of course. I hope to have a 5th wheel next year. Keep the videos coming! Happy trails!
Thanks! This summer will be my first time to wing it. You really helped.
We are so happy to hear! You got this 🙂
We recently evacuated for hurricane Ian. On our way home we had no reservations. The only night we had any trouble was the first night. We wound up staying in a Bass Pro Shop parking lot in Baton Rouge Louisiana. Now we have a Class A diesel pusher so we have a onboard 10k watt generator and we had fresh water in our tank so we were fine. The parking lot was spacious and pretty level. We had a great night's sleep.
Great video guys! It's comforting knowing that every night doesn't have to be planned out! Thank you!
Cracks me up when you guys crack yourselves up, nice to see people that don take themselves seriously
I was happy to see all of your campgrounds allowed one night booking. We stayed at a campground outside of Pittsburgh in our way up to Niagara Falls that had sites specifically for people passing through for one night and we had a nice pull-thru site. We’ve found, however, a lot of campgrounds that want you to book for at least two nights.
Thanks for another great video, Hanks!
Thank you Lindsay! That's a great point :) glad ya'll landed a sweet pull through
You can boondock in my property we have 50amp & water for a small fee. I'm on Boondocking welcome. We're in Malone Fl in panhandle.
This whole video I was thinking they could as back up do a BoonDockers welcome or harvest host if necessary.
Spray Pam on the front nose of your RV and the bugs won’t stick
But dust will lol
I would rather have dust than dead bugs and having to wash them off
@@curtisdoyle3598 huh until you have Pam all over the camper and truck and is like trying to wash off silicone off lol would not recommend to anyone there is products that buys wash off easily
It’s worked for fifteen years saves me a lot of work washing bugs off
@@curtisdoyle3598 you do you I wouldn’t recommend to anybody to do so Spray Pam all over your truck and see what it looks like
Just found you guys, so I'm two months late on this one, but from one old transport nurse and EMT to two others, thanks for pointing out all of the dangers of not yielding to responding emergency vehicles and how dangerous the rubber-necking of other driver's can be! People have been injured and killed because of driver inattention at the scene of crashes. Safety first!! THANKS!!!!!!!
Love watching you guys! We’ve honestly learned a lot and laughed a lot because of your videos, thank you!!
Thank you very much for your support in watching our videos! We are so happy that they videos can be of some help 😊
Wow, you accomplished your mission. I was actually quite surprised that you guys made it by staying without reservations. Thanks for sharing. Peace and safe travels.
You guys are always so upbeat. Don't you ever have bad days?
Love you guys.😊
Pressure regul. We run the same regular because of on demand water heater. Use a water "y" at the supply! One for fresh, one for black. Double shut off on black tank.
Great tip on the pressure regulator! Thanks Hanks!!
In the last 5 years state parks in the west have become nearly impossible to get into without reservations. National parks are impossible without reservations.
Hey Hideho Hanks! Turning 70 this year and just bought our first RV sooooo, been getting my U Tubeversity degree. Have to say, you two are killing it. Great content, great editing, and hanksariffic personallity. Lovin the Hanks. Thanks you two.
Hey Hanks, we go "commando" all the time, no reservations! We got burned doing reservations early on in our full-timing journey because of a surprise snow storm snowed us in for 3 days! Had to cancel a whole string of reservations down the east coast and eat the fees. Now we're commando only. We have learned that the best are first come, first serve camp sites and to travel mid-week and stay through the weekend. Hey also, noticed you have West Lake tires, not a fan of those, might want to look at upgrading (just sayin)
Another great video! Thanks Hanks! My brother, pulling his 5th wheel, and I, driving my class C, drove from Georgia to Washington last June. Out of 7 nights on the road, we were able to find a spot every night except for 2 of them. We thought that was pretty good.
So what did you do for the two nights you couldn’t find a spot?
We so identify with this. Our travel plans cover getting the rig hooked up and deciding which way to go on an interstate. We do carry a generator just in case though. I can't tell you how many times we changed plans at the last minute and had to find a new place. Planning stresses us out, it creates too firm of a timeline. Nothing worse than trying to rush to the next place or cut something short because you HAVE to be somewhere. Pressure gauge thing is golden. Can't tell you how many we have tossed. Never thought about the pressure being built up and needing to be released. Love the content and safe travels.
That's awesome. We've had good luck for finding a place last minute, too. Great job stopping quickly!! That's really scary! My husband is good about keeping a long following distance. We were in crazy busy traffic and he was doing great until the guy in the left lane cut us off as we were going downhill pulling our trailer. So grateful our truck and trailer stopped and we didn't hit him and no one hit us!! It was so close and terrifying. Life on the road is seldom boring. Love you guys. Take Care.
Good tip on the water pressure regulator.
We always travel on holiday weekends and never have reservations and never have a problem staying anywhere. Not you guys but most all other youtubers put the panic in having to having to have reservations. #travel loose with the HANKS. Slow down and travel safe. 😍😉😋
living on the edge! i am thankful for this episode that there's nothing wrong with being spontaneous every once in a while. you don't always have to have a plan.
As a truck driver, the best advice I can give is to increase your traveling distance from the vehicle in front of you. This will prevent any quick stops or need to slam the breaks. I can't tell you how many times the 4 second rule has saved me. Let the vehicle in front of you pass an object or marker on the road, count 4 seconds, and you should be passing that same marker. Happy traveling. 😊
We have winged it so many times for holiday weekends and was able to get sites also. We so related to thos video!
You mentioned rocks hitting your rig coming from your tires. I purchased a set of RV flaps that hook onto the trailer hitch on your truck. Problem solved.
Yup, agree ✔️🍻
When gas prices go down more people will be traveling again. We were worried over Labor Day Weekend about finding a place with full hook-up because the place we wanted to stay at is normally booked full. This year there was us and one other trailer. Crazy!
Thanks for the tip on the water pressure regulator. I was trying to change it while water on and thought it wasn’t working right so bought a new one! Never hurts to have a back up.
Yes, we have had the same thing happen before and unfortunately didn't need to buy a new one when we did. Glad we can be of some help! :)
DId y’all notice that thumbs up in the clouds at 6:02? A sign….It’s all good. Thanks Hanks!!!
You 2 are living the life. Wish i would have done something like this before i bought a house and had kids
Thank you very much. This lifestyle is always here waiting for you! 😊 Hope to see you out here one day
I can't tell you how much I love your videos!! Not only the content but your humor gets me to lol every time @ a time in life when there is very little left to laugh at. We are fulltimers since April..6 months in Pennsylvania and now 6 months in Florida. I sure hope that we will meet up somewhere along the way. Btw..Im a newly retired nurse and I think that your lifestyle is awesome!!❤️
Thank you for sharing this! We plan the long stays, but wing it on travel days. Also, our big trip this summer, we totally pivoted and changed our reservations for the week to get out of the heat. Able to make reservations on the travel day for an entire week at one of the more popular summer destinations. No problem. Kept saying to ourselves that this is why we RV. Great couple of videos.
Thank you for the water tip. I hadn’t a clue….. I ❤ your Buc-ee’s cup!!
Sometimes I just watch y'all because I need to lighten my mood and smile. #thanksHanks for the smiles 😃
Thursday with the Hanks is the best!!!
Just bought a trailer and am hooked on your channel.
Hi there! Congrats to you on your new trailer that you just bought! Thank you for your amazing support and for taking the time to watch our videos. It means a lot to us! - Kyle and Renee
Good tip on the regulator. I was wondering why the needle wasn't moving! Thx Hanks!
There's an old Southern phrase that will serve well here: "If it's rainin' while the sun's shinin'... The Devil is whippin' his wife!" 😎
I stand corrected; not only did you prove that having no reservations - even on a busy holiday weekend - is do-able, but you made it look easy! Well done, you two! You are always such fun to watch!
Yall are so fun to watch, and I don’t even have an RV! I don’t want to deal with towing anything or drive a bus. We enjoy driving in our nice quiet suv & have reservations at decent hotels, nothing too fancy that I would need a jacket! Not gunna happen!
You are so much fun to watch and we love how you throw in a tip or two along the way. We always get something out of your video, even if it’s just a laugh. Thanks!😊
Thank you very much! You make our day reading this 😃 Stay safe!
I second that👆
Good news! I can't do that. Way too much anxiety involved. I'd rather have reservations. Great job letting us know it is possible if needed. Love you guys❤️
Yeah It's good to know that there's good odds of getting a spot without a reservation, but if nobody made reservations it'd be chaos. They can handle one or two rigs showing up walk-up but if 30 rigs showed up without res it'd be a mess.
I've noticed in Florida that summer holidays are not as busy, because of the heat. Getting a reservation during the winter months are not as easy. It's flipped from the north.
I just LOVE ya’ll’s channel! 🥰🤣Ya’ll make me chuckle!! Many blessings!
Places need to keep spaces open. At leaste if those to lazy to call & say not coming have it as if not there by 4pm & no cancellation, don't expect to have space unless call and give later time to be there.
My wife and I have been fulltime for a year December 10th, towed around 20k miles, haven't made a single reservation. We don't spend many nights in RV parks but when we do we just show up....great video.....
😂 @1:41 The Hank’s are traveling over water!❤
The only other series that I loved to watch that was a "way back when" show was Lucille Ball. Y'all make me laugh so much. You need your own TV/Cable show. Can't wait for next week. If y'all are in the Savannah area ring me up.
Great job keeping the videos informative but lighthearted!
Thank you, George!
That’s a brake light check. Normally witnessed on nearly every multi lane highway in the Chicago area!
Thanks Hanks for the cool gadget suggestion to make the y tube go from the phone to the television!!! You have no idea how much i spent on apple devices that didnt work !
Great B roll & editing...great shots, mixes and audio.
Thank you Ed! We really appreciate this 😊 Cheers!
You go Hanks!! Y’all ROCK!! Happy camping and safe travels! ❤️❤️
Thanks Hanks! This gives us a possibility to travel out of state now and book the main spot destination but don't on the way and look for some options. Thank you and on the water regulator too!!
It is really hard to believe just how smart Ney Ney is, She is Awesome!
Hey guys what’s up! The way I like to set my regulator is… if I want “x” amount of pressure with the shower on, I turn the shower on and then set pressure. Just be sure when it’s off that it doesn’t exceed your rigs psi rating. In all reality these new rigs all use PEX and can handle std household pressures.
I have reserved entire 6 month trips accross the US coast to coast twice. Mostly because the places we stay are hard to get, but also saves a ton of time not having to find a site and a route.
As a ex-EMT in the Bloomsburg PA area part of our coverage area was I-80 and wow, you had to really keep your eyes open on calls on the I. I don't know of anyone who enjoyed running calls up there.
We just went on a 68 day trip starting labor day weekend. First night CG was full, but found a free roadside park. Had very short reservations only a few times made that day. Extended our stays at several parks. Everything worked out great.
Love this! When we go cross country everyday is like this. Expect to end up in a parking lot but instead full hookups almost every-time. :)
First and foremost, increase your following distance when towing a heavy load. If you rear end the car in front of you it's because you didn't allow enough room or weren't paying attention and you can't blame others. The only exception is if someone jumps into your lane and then hits the brakes. Here in Indiana we're instructed to pull over and stop for all emergency vehicles, not just move to the right lane. Maybe it's different in other states.
Yup, one is suppose to be pulling over and stopping in canada for all emergency vehicles. 🍻
I just stayed at Flat Creek this past weekend. Called an hour out and got a great site! Great amenities, huge dog park! Look forward to staying there on the way home. And still have no idea what the Jai Alai building was about?!
Wow! I just had that same pressure regulator issue this week. Could not get the pressure to adjust, even thought I might need a new one. Thanks Hanks for being so timely and helpful.
love watching you guys you make me laugh so much! My husband and I never are like you two. It's hard for me to go with the flow. Safe travels!!! (Cheri)
Thank you Cheri & Mike! Safe travels to you as well, we appreciate you guys!
Awesome test guy's. Where we are there is almost always no sites available on long weekends. But that being said if you head just a little further down the highway you will find something. Thank's Hank's!
I worked 30 yrs in LEO Rubber Neckers are a problem they cause wrecks. Love watching you two Stay safe
Great job Hanks!
Yes!!! Get over!!! Thank you for reminding your people that! The ‘rubber neckers’ are the worst!!!
With us… We can’t/won’t handle anything less than 3 night stays. However we have done 1 night stays on long hauls, hate it though.
ps… love you’re wearing a SOMEDAY CREW shirt!
100% Yay!! Funny you guys asked in the video, but we just did exactly what your doing here during our 18 day, 14 states, 6,023 mile trip. We mostly did the guerilla overnights (rest stops/Loves/Flying J's), but the 3 actual campsites we booked, we did each of them the "day of". And one, we just rolled in at 1am and did the late night check-in procedure (KOA Lafayette LA). So, 100% know for a fact that you can find a place the "day of", even on a Friday (Needles CA) or in Shenandoah Valley VA on the Thursday (stayed Thur-Sat) of Veterans Day weekend. #LetErRip
Cool vídeos, good editing, very entertaining, just subscribed!👊🏻
Great episode, we hav done it as “drop ins” on long trips but for a week I reserve. We’ll see once we’re full timing in a couple of years…very different between a tent & a fifth wheel!
As for the rubber necking past crashes, that’s the job of the passenger! They report what they see to the driver. That’s what we do. I like to try figuring out how it happened. And if EMS isn’t on scene (& no one else has stopped) if assistance is needed. If there’s a non-EMS crowd we just keep going.
Y’all are great! This information is fantastic, Carl the water pressure regulator tip was the best! You guys are wonderful and always showing us out of the box information!
Last Labor Day we traveled from Green Bay Wisconsin to Yellowstone national park made two stops we did book them ahead of time but both places had tons of room for just walk-ins we even got upgraded to full hook ups. As a full-time truck driver I know how it is when you come up to an accident and you have everybody rubbernecking stay safe out there try and stay dry thanks from Wisconsin
Very good video information on the last minute stops. So true everyone says must book ahaed. Love Y'alls content. To funny & Cute 😍
Just love you kids! Take care, be safe and keep having fun!!
Thank you so much!!
First, I SO agree with the dangers rubber-neckers cause. Eyes on the road! I have family and friends who are truckers and have seen first hand what dangers are cause by inattentive drivers. Now for the good stuff...we have been campers for over 40 years and usually fly by the seat of our pants. We love to boondock but also stay in campgrounds. We have a cozy 22 ft camper, now, and only had one time where we had a little trouble finding a camp site, Albuquerque, during the balloon fest. We are watching your AK trip. We might get to see you, we leave in a week for a 2 month trip.
Thanks Hanks for helping to de-stress the planning!!!! # You Rock !!!!
