    THANKS SO MUCH for taking us Camping with You!😊 You're living my DREAM! And thanks for Breakfast!😋 Oh and Dinner looked delicious ,too! 😂
    That's a cool Lil ice maker😁 I knew I'd be looking for some other type of ice tray....
    Ya! I like the idea of the Cassette Toilet 😅
    I appreciate you doing a more in depth demo and explanation of how it's used. I'm still torn between the 320 and the 400. Kinda with a cassette toilet was an option in the 400... I was just about to ask where you are (didn't know if I missed it) then you said you that you didn't want to tell🤪 I'm in Tucson, so I'll be looking for higher Elevations this time of year for sure! 👍
    Take Care! And keep the videos a comin'! 😊

      Thanks! Yes, our desert is cooking, head anywhere above 5k feet right now 😂. I'd say if it's just you, a 320 is perfect, but if you want some more room for 2 and your vehicle can handle it, get the 400 if you can. They are also coming out with a Tab360 soon. I added a link for the ice tray. Thank you for watching.

      😂I don’t think Kevin’s will ever sponsor your videos. 😂 lol
      I have a t@g I tow with a 4Runner. I guess I searched a T@b 320 so much your videos were suggested.
      I noticed you cook outside instead of in.. part of the reason I love the T@g - outside kitchen. I have been trying to get a 320css for a year but they are hard to find. Did you consider a CSS when you bought yours?

      @MelissaRamirez-fn8wi 🤣🤣 It didn't tatse to bad though. 😂 Very cool setup, yeah when I wanted to buy a trailer ot was impossible to find a use one. Course a month after I bought it, people were dumping them left and right before winter, figures lol. I was originally going for a rove lite rear bunk, loved the the layout, but build quality was lacking. The css is neat, but I wanted the indoor kitchen in case of bad weather. I have cooked some easy small meals inside, but nothing too complex or messy. I mainly just start coffee or boil up water for mountain house or one pot skillet meals to keep the smell and mess down. As far as css sales go, keep checking the Facebook groups, I've seen them on there for sale sometimes. I think since Nucamp is coming out with the new 360 that there might be alot of people selling soon to upgrade, so keep your eye open. Thanks for watching, and good luck finding a css.👍😂

      Yeah, the size is perfect, they look awesome. I'd like to see a split sink/stove at least though, and maybe a smaller fridge for more counter space. Also the option to make a full bed would be cool.

    LOL - try Kevin's Thai Coconut Chicken - its really good if you like Thai food. You can also just buy the sauce, and use your own meat instead of the pre-cooked meat in the kits. The Thai chicken and Korean BBQ chicken packages are the best. Enjoying your adventures. Really like the TABs too. I'm kicking around the idea of a travel trailer, rented 2 so far, but in DFW, its a serious drive to get anywhere scenic, and like you've experienced, everything is always booked up so have to plan so far in advance, then you show up and the parks are empty. subbed.

    • @DSWadventures
      @DSWadventures  3 месяца назад

      I will have to check out the chicken versions. 😂 Yeah, the camping scene has really blown up in the last 3 years. The funny part is that the none campground areas, blm land, can be even more crowded at times. Winter time out west with snow bird season in play can be almost impossible to get a spot at a campground or parks out here. Thanks for watching, I will check out your channel also. 👍

    I got an OTT tune for my Taco a couple of weeks ago but haven't towed my CS-S with it yet. I'm heading up to PA next week for a small T@B gathering so I'll get a chance to see how well it does. It wasn't great before. I have already noticed a big difference in shifting and drivability and I assume towing will be so much better!
    I also bought a Tackform track for my dash so I can mount my backup camera, TPMS monitor and engine gauge and that makes the dash so much better!

    • @DSWadventures
      @DSWadventures  3 месяца назад

      Awesome! I think you'll find the truck will tow better for sure, dont expectanything too crazy though haha. I don't know how loaded down or how big of tires you have, but I definitely wouldn't want to tow anything over 2500 lbs with a Tacoma, unless it was low altitude on flat roads staying under 55mph. These Tacomas just don't have enough get up and go for towing anything larger than our 320s in my opinion. Although some do pull 400s, but that Maybe due to just using a 2 wheel drive extra cab taco, reducing some weight and upping the tow rating. When I first got my Tab, my buddy let me use his gmc 1500 with the little eco diesel to pick it up out of town. Oh man! Hardly knew the trailer was back there, just a little push of the big toe on the accelerator, so effortless. I think I will eventually go back to a full size just to keep the stain on the vehicle down, but for now, the taco works fine. Too bad Toyota doesn't put a diesel in the Tacomas like the hilux in other countries.

      @@DSWadventures We just got back from Ireland and I was jealous of the Hiluxs. There aren't a ton of them and there are NO large pickups like there are here. People pull their trailers (caravans) with cars. We saw fairly larger trailers being pulled by sedans.

    • @DSWadventures
      @DSWadventures  2 месяца назад

      😂 It was edible, lol. If you mean a bmw x3 suv, I'd say maybe, not 100% sure on that vehicle though. You just gotta check your gvwr inside the door or in your vehicle manual to make sure it can handle the weight. Also check to see if you have a tow package and 7 pin connector. Not sure if those have a factory trailer brake controller built in. If not, you would have to get one. Go to the Facebook Nucamp and T@b pages and ask, I'm sure someone out there has done it. If not, they will know for sure. The trailer weighs about 2200 lbs loaded. Thanks for watching.

    My first rig was a 28ft 2 axle TT. My 2nd was a 42ft 5th wheel. I’m interested to see if the Little Guy Max DC will be different with a single axle and being smaller. My giant 5th wheel was by far the easiest at towing, backing, and hooking up between my first 2 rigs.
