So sad about the RV wreckage. Thank you for telling us about the Ohio rest stops with full hook ups and all the cute places in Indiana. Wishing you safe travels and I hope Jason is doing well.🇺🇸💙🙏
We stop at the Ohio Service area every time we travel to Nappanee…only bad thing is you have to unhook the toad. Also you need to have exact amount to park there, a $20 bill 5:48
Yes! Exact change. The good thing is, they have the stores inside so you would be able to get change if you needed it. It’s definitely a great place to stay!
We stayed overnight in an Ohio rest stop this past summer, and it was great. The spot was nice, and each one had electric and water hookups. There was one dump station for all the spots but we didn't need to use it. It was great to be able to use our AC. We joked we would travel anywhere as long as you could get there on the Ohio Turnpike. 😅
We've lived in Ohio and gone through many toll booths with RVs and never thought they were that bad. They're narrow intentionally to force people to drive slow.
We loved the rv parking in Ohio. We didn’t know about it ahead of time just got lucky. Pretty cool. Missy and I are with you, winter camping is not great… LOL. Great video !!
We just went camping for a week in Surfside Beach, just south of Myrtle Beach, SC last week. I will NEVER camp in the winter at the beach!! It was so dang cold!! We about froze our buns off! 🥶🥶🥶 Between the cold and windchill, it was in the low 20’s a few mornings!! And this was in South Carolina!! WTH??? From now on, only summer or early fall camping for us!!!! 🥶🥶🥶 Happy Camping and Safe Travels!! ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻
Loved the video and we LOVE going to the Mothership. They do phenomenal work! We were back there in February trying to take advantage of the winter rates. Not so sure we will do that again. Boondocked in Bowling Green KY at a Cabela's and it was 3°. Next morning driving to Nappanee we hit a high of 9°. That night at the Mothership it was -3° with about 4 to 6 inches of snow on the ground. Had to use a broom handle to poke down through the snow to find the edges of the pad 😂 Don't think we will try that again even though everyone assured us it was a freak weather event for that time of the year. But we still enjoyed our stay! We did change it up and found a great Airbnb really close so they could keep the coach inside due to the extreme temps. That turned out to be a good plan.
Good day MJ & Izzy, I’m David da Silva Medeiros from South Africa and have been following your channel for a while now and just wanted thank you for all the RV videos and the information you supply the RV community or ERV’s like myself. Have a great holiday day season.
We had a brand new wide body ambulance destroyed in a toll booth. The crew was in an emergency situation. They put a person driving the ambulance that had never driven one before. It was a full crew, including a patient. No one was hurt, but the new ambulance was completely destroyed.
I can empathize with your side mirror incident. Several years ago, I wiped-out my passenger side mirror going through a tollbooth on the Indiana Turnpike! I drove home using the blind spot mirror on that side. I was also driving a Baystar.
Oh you gota get a huge tree and lights everywhere and don’t say a word. Hehe!!!!! Plus Jason messed up the whole trip! Lol😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 great video! Merry Christmas and a happy new year!!!!! Aloha!
Hi Izzy and MJ! Hope there isn’t anything too bad wrong with Nelli that you are getting done. Nice you met up with friends with New Mars. The pan cakes look good! Seeing the pan cakes and the cookies made me hungry. lol! It did look cold there. Hope you’ll be ok going home if there’s snow. Glad nothing happened with your mirror this time around. Can’t wait to see part 2 of this video! See you both soon!
A couple of years ago we spent Christmas traveling to Florida from California and I did bring a couple of tiny Christmassy decorations and a can of pine scent. LOL. It was kind of awesome. :)
Be safe on the icy roads. That sucks that trailer jack knifed hope everyone is ok. I have a 5th wheel. Feels more stable than bumper pull to me anyway.
That pancake house used to be a Bob Evans restaurant and it was very popular for years, and then it shut down and then sat empty for many years until recently when it reopened as a pancake house. Very odd that it shut down because it was always busy. We live in Goshen and own a Newmar Mountain Aire. In the winter it stays in our heated shop. We dont travel in winter if we can help it, if we did it be southern parts. Izzy the best thing you ever did for me was turn me on to mast service center in Etna Green. Those guys are the best! I never take my coach to Newmar. I do all my own service and what i cant handle i take to Mast. Also one day Indiana will switch to open road tolls like the rest of the country is doing, in the meantime always try to use the right most lanes. I never lost a mirror but i know others that have. Scuffed tires is the worst ive done. Sometimes i want to get out and grease the sides first😅
safe travels to yous, be careful!watch out for the drones, they say some of them are big as cars, i hope they don;t get as big as motorhomes! love your videos
Welcome to the Hoosier state! Love your vids. Too many cute small towns in indiana to list really. A little more "touristy " but adorable shops is Nashville, Indiana. About an hour south of Indy.
Raised in Ohio. Very familiar with the winters there. I hate traveling in cold anyway so no winter camping for me. Nothing above the 38 parallel for me in winter. LOL
New places to shop and eat is one of the best things about the RV life. Why drive to anouther part of the country and eat at the same chain restaurants. We have found some great places. When in a new area and out exploring I like to ask some of the local people , Where would you go for lunch/supper to eat well. Like you found out up there the people who live there know the good places.
Personally, I think Elkhart Indiana is missing an opportunity, they need things to do for people who come there and have their units worked on, personally I would like a waterpark or something like cedar point lol 😂 we were so bored while waiting. Yes, we did the museum. lol 😂
Ohio Turnpike rest areas are very convenient. You can just drive backwards though to the pumps everyone does. I was just by Nemar on Tuesday, I was up in Wakarsua seeing my new rv getting painted.
Those transport drivers fly with TT down I-80 😂. I get it, but it is as fast as they will be towed. We kinda live at 65-68 in motorhome. And agreed on winter trips!
Is your Newmar a diesel? I hope that RV wreck is not going to WNC to be delivered for the hurricane victims. Glad to know Ohio (our state) got a full hookup for RV. We went to Coldwater, Michigan to get our RV winterize, it was free so it was worth the drive.
Your side mirrors don't swing in for clearance? Aren't there DOT rules for minimum lane width clearance, even for toll booths? Or wasn't this road under those rules?
The rest of the country should follow Ohio's lead, what a great idea, overnight RV parking at rest stops with electrical hookups! But I guess they can't do much about the cold, brrr! Those pancakes looked wonderful, love blueberry pancakes smothered in maple syrup! Izzy will have his hands full washing Nellie when you get back home, can't imagine washing the coach in winter!
I don't mind snow, or cold, but driving through salt & Calcium Chloride(CaCl2) is a huge NO! Do you use Salt Away or something similar when you get home ?
I just put up a baby tree and a medium tree that is in. Right now trying to get my tank rods fixed and can't find nobody. I pulled out black tank rod and it broke then I tried opening gray tank just as I was starting to pull it broke so gray is now full and no way to empty it.😂😂

He’s doing great, thanks! Just got home for his winter break. 😊
The Number One RV rule is: If it’s snowin, you ain’t goin.
Good rule to follow. Wait til part 2. 😩

MJ, when you said "of course Izzy had to have the thing color matched perfectly" you made it sound like a bad thing 😊
Stay proud of your OCD Izzy!
No it’s great! lol

Thank you, Thomy. Happy holidays to you too! 😊
Wow, that is sad about the RV! Great video love the sights, thanks for sharing and safe travels.
Thanks for watching and commenting as always. We appreciate you. 😊

Well, they do their job. lol

Must have been freezing EVERYWHERE last week! 🥶
Stayed in the RV overnight area on 80 in Ohio. Loved it. It was clean and was far enough from road way to be great for sleeping.
Yep, they’re some of the best!

Great video and nice tour. Thank you
Thanks for taking us along on your adventures and showing us all the cool #STUFF that you find. 😊
Love the service center. Our last visit was December 2023 and we drove over in 15 degrees weather, but no snow. I can appreciate what you experienced.
Thanks for watching!
Love Izzy's Hat! Go Bills!

Love your video …looks damn cold there…we live in NW Ohio but winter in Fla glad we’re in Fla!!
Be safe on the icy roads. That sucks that trailer jack knifed hope everyone is ok. I have a 5th wheel. Feels more stable than bumper pull to me anyway.
It really was scary! We were so lucky we just missed it.
We always had a Christmas tree in the rig. Put lights around the awning also. Thanks for the video.
Nice! Gotta be festive this time of year. 🎄

Thanks for letting us know about the pancake house. That’s interesting. So glad you utilize Mast. They are wonderful. Thanks for watching the video!
safe travels to yous, be careful!watch out for the drones, they say some of them are big as cars, i hope they don;t get as big as motorhomes! love your videos
Thank you!
I wonder if it is the recall from Brinkley about the pinbox detaching? Hope everyone was alright!
I'm retired from trucking. I decorated for Christmas always
Remember those toll booths on the Ohio pike were built in the 50's and 60's way before the advent of the motorhomes and trucks of today.
Brrrr. Looked plenty cold. Glad we are in Savannah! lol
Lucky you! 😊
it about 0 and no strong wind so its not cold like it gets in Wisconsin.
Thanks for the tip on the Ohio TP 👍🏻 I’ll have to check it out.
It’s a great rest area!
Welcome to the Hoosier state! Love your vids. Too many cute small towns in indiana to list really. A little more "touristy " but adorable shops is Nashville, Indiana. About an hour south of Indy.
We love Indiana, too! It’s definitely a fun state to explore. Thanks for the tip on Nashville!

Did Izzy cut that tree down himself, haha
Why because he looks like a lumberjack in the flannel? 🤣
@@EndlessRVing haha 😄

Strong winds can cause accidents also.
Yep.

Cool

@@MulligansBlog yep it was crazy! Felt so bad for whosever Brinkley that was. :/
Visit some of the amish indiana while yer there..
Watch out for the drones in Jersey🙂👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
They’re everywhere. 😙
@EndlessRVing yeah it's crazy
Wowwwwwww endless rving's to mv's house
The Ohio Tpk truck fueling usually has one lane with gasoline.
Is your Newmar a diesel? I hope that RV wreck is not going to WNC to be delivered for the hurricane victims. Glad to know Ohio (our state) got a full hookup for RV. We went to Coldwater, Michigan to get our RV winterize, it was free so it was worth the drive.
Ours is gas.
@@EndlessRVing thanks!
Your side mirrors don't swing in for clearance? Aren't there DOT rules for minimum lane width clearance, even for toll booths? Or wasn't this road under those rules?
Hey Izzy You havent said how the 5star tuner is working?
Works great
@@EndlessRVing Good to hear! I want to get one for my 2003 itasca sonova V10.
The rest of the country should follow Ohio's lead, what a great idea, overnight RV parking at rest stops with electrical hookups! But I guess they can't do much about the cold, brrr! Those pancakes looked wonderful, love blueberry pancakes smothered in maple syrup! Izzy will have his hands full washing Nellie when you get back home, can't imagine washing the coach in winter!
@@wesalexander2693 he did it literally the second we got home 🤣
@@EndlessRVingI am first time gave one built to order and not getting just what they have on the lot.
I don't mind snow, or cold, but driving through salt & Calcium Chloride(CaCl2) is a huge NO!
Do you use Salt Away or something similar when you get home ?
RUclips wouldn't let me give a thumbs up.
Not surprised
I hear the roads are terrible, did you find them smooth ?
@@billhillegass946 roads were fine
Pancakes are awesome
That they are lol 🥞
Is it just me or does it feel like Pennsylvania never ends when your driving?
It does lol
I just put up a baby tree and a medium tree that is in. Right now trying to get my tank rods fixed and can't find nobody. I pulled out black tank rod and it broke then I tried opening gray tank just as I was starting to pull it broke so gray is now full and no way to empty it.😂😂
Dealer will buff that out and sell it as new.
So what about the "no snow"?😂
Yea, that really didn’t go as planned. 🤣 Wait until part 2. 😮

If there's white in the air my RV won't be there.
