Some people abuse the generosity of hosts, while others are just nasty and dump their black tanks where they shouldn't and leave garbage around for somebody else to deal with. This has always been the case. Everybody pays for the selfishness of a few.
Sadly, that's true. It only takes a few people behaving irresponsibly to make things harder for everyone else. Most RVers are respectful and follow the rules, but the bad behavior of a few really impacts the whole community. Hopefully, better awareness and stricter enforcement can help improve things
It had to come. Authorities want everyone locked into "normal society" to pay taxes and follow the rules. There is plenty of room (millions of acres in public domain), and the so-clled "problem spots" are few compared to the wider available space. Laws could tackle the problems - but want to make a blanket ban.
You raise a great point, and it feels like these laws are limiting the freedom many RVers cherish. A more balanced approach would solve specific problems without penalizing everyone. Let’s stay informed and push for fair solutions to keep the RV lifestyle alive.
The real problem is. The government’s failure to properly address the ever increasing homeless population. But we have no problem sending billions of dollars 💰💰💰overseas. America first. ✊🇺🇸
The problem is we give the rich trillions in free money all the time. We could spend 100 times more on other countries and end hunger and homelessness and give everyone Healthcare and securee the border put a base on the moon travel to Mars pay off the deficit and national debt free child care clean up the pollution pay our soldiers more money give all the poor smartphones and maintain pur roads and so much more if we stopped giving trillion dollar handouts to the rich.
Very well sr I am one of these RVs six months out of the year. I have to go to a campground then even then shouldn’t have to do that work 40 hours and yet they’re giving away free stuff to people on the border. I can’t even qualify for a home loan, but they giving away money. I worked hard for 20 years plusand now they’re running out of people that can afford RVs. But yet the letting somebody take a dump in the street and giving illegal people hotel rooms.
Absolutely, finding a balanced approach is essential. There’s no doubt that housing challenges, including for those in RVs, are complex and require thoughtful solutions. With the rise in RV living, it might help to explore more affordable campground options or policies that make public lands accessible while balancing the needs of communities. Addressing these issues thoughtfully could really support those who rely on alternative housing while preserving resources. What do you think could be a practical first step in making RV living more sustainable for everyone?
I'm one of the lucky ones. I'm glad I don't do this lifestyle for adventures purposes. Though I do do do some adventures, but it's not for that purpose. It's for economic purposes to live cheaper and to avoid paying high bills. That's why I do it, so I'm basically in one area so I'm fine for now. Until they come after me as well, we stay eventually will.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! It’s inspiring to see how you’ve embraced this lifestyle for practical reasons while still enjoying some adventures along the way.
Bad rvers caused alot of this themselves. Instead of just staying to get alittle sleep i have seen people stay at a walmart for a week, slides out, awning out, chairs out etc... dumping black and grey tanks where ever they feel like it. Leaving bags of garbage when they leave.
There are existing laws that deal with all that. It's like banning cars because people speed and drive drunk! We have laws against speeding and driving drunk I stead of just banning cars! Just enforce the laws on the books instead of sweeping bans.
I would agree I’ve seen it firsthand in the Epping, New Hampshire Walmart. I never dumped my sewage nor could I use my sewage. I used my gray water tank to very carefully shower in less than a gallon of water. Well, getting my RV repaired in hopes to put it on a piece of land But the man whose land it was had a medical. Mostly the Canadians do whatever the hell they want. And then you’ve got the fast and furious kids drive around honking the horns while truck drivers in RV years are trying to sleep. I never bothered anybody move my RV around. Worked my full-time 40 or paying down some bills creditors wouldn’t work with me. Neither would the government shipyard Trying to pay back my bills getting a better job there’s a lot more stories than you think. Currently working with three injuries and paying back medical and bills doing all jobs while people like you get to enjoy your weekends off. RVs are no longer a luxury but you make it that way. Maybe affordable rents and enough with the Immigration Help people in this country rent a spare room get rid of your secondary home of the winter time sitting vacant or help people in the community, who have these RV parks New England has none that are affordable.
A few bad apples can ruin it for everyone. Staying at a Walmart or other free spots was meant for quick overnight stops, not setting up camp. When people misuse these spaces such as extending slides, leaving trash, or dumping tanks. It gives RVers a bad name and makes stores and towns less welcoming. It’s unfortunate, but respect and responsible use are key to keeping these options available for everyone.
We are a fulltime live abord sailing family looking at RV life. I'm not convinced either way yet but shows like these definitely make me wonder if RV life is a good move. Currently we're in Guatemala
That’s a big decision, especially with all the recent changes affecting RV life. It definitely has its pros and cons, just like sailing life. Staying informed about new laws and being flexible can help you navigate the challenges. Wishing you the best on whichever path you choose!
I live on a Dufour 27 and sailboats are the last of the freedom. The Coast Gaurd is way less intrusive then law enforcment that live on the land Living on the water or even public Marinas provide a buffer between law enforcment and the family. Shipyards are also insulated from the vast percentage of law enforcment. Maritime law in the end always gives way to the saftey of the crew and the vessel. Even if a boater is violating am ordinance all you have to say is you were unable to do anything.else because you deemed it unsafe. Almost all maritime laws must give way to the concererrns of the Captain. If the Captain says there was much risk to do something different even if your out of food you can leverage that to anchor for free and shop for supplies that kind of power a Captain has over his or her boat does not exist on land. Maritime law favors the Captains right to make decisions. In a car you can tell the police you have to sleep a few hours in a rest stop out in the middle of no where with you being the only car there and a cop could tell you it's illegal to sleep! Most cops wouldn't do that but the Supreme Court has decided local authorities can outlaw sleeping in any public area. It's insane because driving whole exhausted is so deadly but a Captain single handing can tell the coast gaurd you cannot safley pilot your bought without sleep and you will be able to sleep they can't tow you off shore against your will. Stick with the sailboat they provide you with more rights than any other form of transportation, world wide. When you commit to living on land there are a million times more people with authority that can violate your human rights.
@@sndspderbytes yes lots of pros and cons to figure out. We have sailed most of US east coast, Bahamas. Turks and Caicos, Dominican Republic and now Guatemala. The experiences we have shared are amazing while living on this boat are simply amazing. Navigating by stars at night while talking about future dreams. Sailing off-shore we have found ourselves completely alone no land, ships, birds or boats in site for days..
It's funny to talk about this. They did the same thing with the homeless people as well. When homeless people lump themselves together. It's a problem. This is why if I was to be homeless and I found a little spot like in the bushes. I would not tell nobody it sounds cruel. I won't tell nobody. This is why even on my own channel. I don't tell people my locations. Or all my locations I sleep at. I'm the only 1 day. I love it. What's not why I'll see it. I'll see it. I'll see it, I'll see it. I'll see it. I'll see it, I'll see it. I'll see it. I'll see it, I'll see it. I'll see it. I'll see it, I'll see it. I'll see it. I'll see it, I'll see it. I'll see it. I'll be parked there overnight like. Home depot basically no one pops in these places. And that's great, I won't mention much names so people don't get any ideas.
You make an interesting point about keeping locations private. It’s definitely a good way to avoid unwanted attention. It's tough to balance staying safe while also being part of a community. Have you found any particular strategies that work well for you when it comes to staying discreet yet secure?
I always thought it would change due to bad RVs and the fact that as more people do this because of high home or rental cost, states can't make money . Losing your freedom can happen all at once or the way this is being done through little paper cuts. Learn this America isn't as free as you think, never was.
You are absolutely right, It's getting harder for people to keep their lights on. Do you think we can do anything to change this? Please feel free to share your thought I would like to present some of ideas in some of the next videos. Thank you!
You’re right, many of these changes have already taken effect, and for a lot of people, RVing is no longer the cheaper option compared to traditional sticks-and-bricks living. Rising campground fees, boondocking restrictions, fuel costs, and constant maintenance are driving up expenses, making RV life just as costly, if not more in some cases.
What are "Florida Ceaches"? Was this written by AI...the voice sounds like it is read by AI. Where has it been legal to dump gray and black water on the ground in recent history? Yeah maybe in the 1930s!
As for dumping gray and black water on the ground, it was more common before strict regulations like the Clean Water Act of 1972. Today, it's generally illegal due to environmental and health concerns.
Build a stadium and the homeless can be the home team! 😅. Of course domed"😊 problem solved! Milatery run! No riff raff! Safe clean and starting point to become a productive citizen! No crazy people, Democrat politicians can take them in! 😮
I can see where you’re coming from in wanting solutions that provide safety and structure. It’s a challenging issue, and finding ways to support people toward self-sufficiency is definitely key. Do you think there are any specific programs or types of facilities that could make a positive impact?
Every year, these low subscriber youtubers make these clickbait videos about how RV/van/bus life is being threatened or coming to an end. It's BS and you only make yourself look like a lazy content creator with no real genuine plan for your channel.
Sorry, but RVers know that restrictions have been increasing over the past few years - especially following covid - where many people started looking at RV-life as a more free alternative to being stuck in a building. And thousands have chosen to take up RV life for many other reasons in recent years. But that's seen Walmart and other businesses and local authorities increasingly ban free overnight stays and impose other restrictions. BLM lands management have also increasingly cracked down on freedom campers in particular (in many cases I agree because they do not follow the "leave only memories take all your trash" ethos). BUT this is the minority spoiling it for the rest. For many, a cheap but socially responsible RV life is just one step away from street homelessness - and we sure don't want to increase that problem do we?
@@gideonporter537 You're absolutely right. It’s unfortunate that the actions of a few have led to increasing restrictions, affecting everyone in the RV community. The freedom that comes with RV life has always been a huge draw, but maintaining a 'leave no trace' mindset is essential to preserving these privileges. It’s a tough balance between protecting public spaces and allowing affordable RV living, especially for those who rely on it as a more sustainable or even necessary option. Hopefully, we can continue promoting responsible camping practices to help preserve these freedoms for all RVers.
@@Immarkonesicthere are laws in place when it comes to dumping trash and such. Cars speed and people drive drunk and others change their own oil and do not dispose of it properly. Cars are abandoned and the city or county has to deal with it. Cars run people over and are uninsured and the get in recks and we have figured out laws and policies to deal with each specific issue we don't ban drivers from being able to park their cars in a entire city or county we don't ban drivers right to buy motor oil or do their own repairs in public. The law allows me to repair my car while parked at Wal-Mart but an RV can't park there just to get some rest.

We are the ones letting it happen, we just stand by and let them keep doing it to us, WE are sheep.
Totally get it. How do you think the RV community can come together to fight these changes and protect our way of life?
It had to come. Authorities want everyone locked into "normal society" to pay taxes and follow the rules.
