- VAN LIFE VLOG: Ep:58 → It's time to go back... We started the trip out wondering if our Tellaro Camper Van could actually make the trip. We are happy to say after a few bumps and bruises the van did great. Today's video we head home so we can get the last few things fixed on our van from Las Mesa mobile service and we eagerly await our HUGE upgrade that we ordered 2 months ago!! Thanks for coming along this epic van trip!

WHO ARE WE?
We are Bob and Hillary, from Chandler, AZ. We have raised our kids (they are in college) bought the house, worked the 9-5, and now we are in our 40s finding out that what we really want is time and freedom more than anything! So we bought a van (1st step) and for now take epic road trips. Eventually though we could see ourselves doing this full time. At this point we have bought a Thor Rize 18T and quickly found out that it was to small for us (we are both over 6 feet tall) and so we traded it in for our current van a Thor Tellaro 20A. This van while brand new has given us lots of headaches...Who knew buying a brand new van would lead to having to fix everything!? This has us thinking that eventually we want to build out a van...more to come later on that 😉
What is our WHY? Why do we want to share it with you? The biggest reason is we have had some hard times and lost very dear people in our life which has caused us to want to make the most out of every moment we are given! Our goal is to inspire everyone to chase their dreams no matter their age and season of life, to help people see the behind the scenes of a couple doing that very thing! And if we can help you achieve your very own home on wheels that's icing on the cake! #couplevlog #vanlifeadventures #vanlifeusa #vancaskeys #vanlife #tellaro20a #thorrv #bucketlist
Cold rainy days are tough. Hard to fight the urge to pull over and crawl under the covers.
Now u needed them yellow sunglasses for Rain, Snow, Fog, Night Driving.
U will Learn.
What an adventure! I just subscribed this week and have been binge watching this trip. We got our Roadtrek van a year ago and are looking forward to some epic trips, too! Stay safe and continue to enjoy your journeys!
Thanks Angie! Congrats on the Roadtrek!
I have never seen some one with as much energy as you Ms !
we always use the wet bath 100 percent of the time as like if we are at home
You guys did really "Awesome "on your two week trip !!!
The van did great !!!👍👍👍
I am so happy for you guys ..good team work ..and great video !!! 😁
Looking forward.. to seeing the new items.. you have purchased.. for your new van 🤗and more exciting trips!!! 😊 🤗😁😊❤️
Good night 😴
Thanks Diane!!! Lots more coming your way! ❤️
Get a gym membership, that way you do not have to stay at RV parks to shower! I have planet fitness black card membership, can use all their gyms, nation wide.
Such a great idea!!!
A fast, furious, and fun trip for sure! Glad you had safe travels with the crazy “lemon rv” as my hubby and I call your vehicle. It would be fun if you did a video on how you plan these trips where you hit a lot of states.
Thanks for sharing your journey! ❤
Haha! Yes our lemon RV 😂 that’s a good idea for a video! Thanks!
A new subscriber here from Canada. Really enjoy your videos. I like hearing about your Ram Promaster Campervan. Your commentaries are very good. What are your feelings about having the front wheel drive? Am thinking about buying a campervan but looking for some thoughts about the front wheel drive on a campervan. Thankyou ! keep the videos coming!.
😀
Wow glad you guys had so much fun can’t to see the next adventure also your recap of the trip
Thanks Rodney!
#Iwantavan
I would like to see how you figure out leveling the van.
Subscribed! We are class b wannabes, and I think you guys and your trips are gonna be similar to our adventures. Best of luck to you!
Awesome! Thank you! We were wannabes for a couple of years before finally pulling the trigger 😂 We totally get it!
You were killing me on day 10. Bob must have been a long haul trucker in his previous life. Too long of a day! Not too far to Phoenix.
Haha! Right! What were we thinking???
I totally felt you when you said ...you could see doing this full time! We just got back from our first big road trip to AZ in our new truck camper and we loved it so so much! We just want to hit the road for a long time 😅 we were so sad to come home too. We trying to figure out how to work and be on the road at the same time. Do you two have jobs that would allow you that? Excited to see your next adventure. We leave on a 2 week truck camping trip to Cali next.
How fun! We both have full time jobs…Hillary runs her own business out of our home and could do it from anywhere. Bob works 4 days in the office and doesn’t have the option to do remote….yet lol. But we are working towards it…have fun in Cali!
@Vancaskeys Exact same here. I work from home and my husband works from home but still trying to figure it all out. 😅 happy travels to you on your next adventure!
Love your videos so much! Ou are both very entertaining!
Thank you Marsha!
Have enjoyed watching this trip.
Thank you!
I've been viewing your videos for a month or so now & realized I wasn't subbed. Sorry... done! Great video thanks!
Awww thanks! We appreciate this so much!
You guys were hauling! Fun trip
Thanks CJ!!!! It was!!
Over 5000 ft in elevation contributes significantly to the cool....
True!
Such an awesome trip! We enjoy your videos so much and inspired us to start our own channel. We also are in the RecVan/La Mesa fam, but Cali edition. One thing we found, the Ford Transit is wayyyyy better to drive than the Dodge Promaster. Have you test driven any other models?
Wow! That’s awesome! We will go follow your travels! How fun! No we haven’t driven any others models…we should have 😅
@@Vancaskeys Happy to share what we learned!
What is the pan you used for the biscuits. I would love one of those
Its an Omnia Oven with a muffin ring.
What's that pot Bob's using for the biscuits?
Sad its over
Same
I now know for sure that 5,000 mile in 2 weeks is way too much! What is your preferred number of miles to cover in a day? I'm set on 300 max.
Haha! 5K was too much! I would say 500 should be our max.
@@Vancaskeys when I was a traveling nurse I would go 700 miles a day to get to the assignment sometimes. Now I will likely go far less.
Oooh weee old set up
Enjoy all you're videos, but I think this is the first time I'm commenting b/c I gotta know: where did you get that jeans jacket? I mean, what brand is that? It's awesome. Wondering if they make a men's version.
Hahaha! Love this! It’s from Nordstrom. It’s the Trucker Jacket from Free People 😃
What was the pan you used to cook the buscuits on stove top
You’re both too cute! Really enjoying your adventures … thank you. 😃
Thank you for watching and enjoying!
Did I miss it? Did y’all stay within your budget?
I strongly suspect the budget numbers won't be pretty :)
Hahaha! You are correct!
U didn’t check no fuilds .
How much does it cost to over night at one of these parks.
How do you get internet on the road?
At this point we just use our phones.
