Hi y'all. I just wanted to know that discovering your videos is probably the next best thing that happened after we bought our tiny (16 ft!) RV. This has been a really tough year us, cancer-be-damned, and your smiles and jokes helped us get through it. Thank you for sharing the love.
I hope you're still loving your 16-footer. We have had a 16-foot bunkhouse for about 3 years. I am thinking that about 4 more feet and possibly a slide might be perfect for us. We are a recently retired couple who want to switch from weekenders to part-timers.
Thanks for discussing pet's and how they could be caught by the slides and possibly badly hurt/or killed when closing the slide. This is a critical subject that isn't discussed for some reason. Our kitty Onions is always secured in the truck when working the slide.
Hello Kyle and Renee! I just wanted to tell you guys THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all the info you share in your videos. I’m a travel echo tech, and I just bought my first travel trailer to travel around the country in! I got a 2022 Grand Design ImagineXLS 21BHE, perfect for me solo with my pups. Your videos helped me so much learning the things I need to buy and just taking the stress of the unknown off my shoulders. Thank you again, truly. I appreciate you both!! Also, a funny side note. My moms name is Teresa, she is a paramedic at St. Elizabeth’s in Red Bluff, CA and used to work with your dad Kyle! Small world lol
Hey Katie!! THANK YOU! It's so great to hear from you 😃 Congrats on the new Grand Design, you must be so excited! WOW, what a small world indeed. I think you mom used to baby sit me when I was super young. I'm not 100% sure though. Be sure to tell your mom my dad says hello and we also say hello!! Much love from the Hanks ❤️ See ya out here
That grade you went up I think was I-26 called the Saluda Grade. It’s really “fun” coming back down. This is where the diesel exhaust brake is worth it’s weight in gold. Y’all stay safe!
Yep, the world famous Saluda Grade. Lots of wrecks happen going down that hill, especially large trucks and semi’s! I live just a few miles from there and we travel I-26 quite frequently.
I l9ve the fact that ya'll are in the Smoky Mountains. My wife and I love it up there and we go every chance we get. It is beautiful and relaxing and so much to do that doesn't cost anything but some time.there are trails to hike, Cades Cove to drive through and waterfalls to see. Enjoy relax and have a good time.
Don't worry about the flat land worried about flat tires! I quote from Dexter. Dexter says the mom keep the thing in the middle of the road don't fall off the edge. He's already getting his first statement in as a back seat driver.. hey has Dexter learned his hail Marys yet! He may need them in the mountains. LOL excellent video! And Dexter says mom you did a nice job driving
I always appreciate the fact that you read my comment and put the heart beside it. But my cat believes that Dexter does it! Should I break her heart and tell her you do it or shall I just let you be in the background lol. I really appreciate you guys and take good care of yourself and your feline family
Hey there goes Nay Nay handling that RV like a champ in those mountains. Kyle /Carl gave great advice on the downhill towing, let the Jake brake do most of the work and you just pat the brake when you notice you gain to much speed. Congratulations on 5 years full time RVing. I have been checking for RV camping areas near or in Pigeon Forge and Now I know #THANKSHANKS. Safe travels.
You guys crack me up. I sit here and just laugh at your antics. Perfect video of Karl being twirled in the air…. 🤣🤣🤣 Love it!!! Safe Travels. And I must have missed you getting your tank fixed, glad it finally happened.
Happy 5 years of full time RVing!!! Im a new subscriber, but i have been watching you guys non stop for the last 2 weeks. My Fiancé and i just bought our first RV and are so excited to hit the road and see American. Hopefully one day we will be able to go to a Hanks rally, and meet all the awesome people in this community!!! #ThanksHanks!!!
This video is perfectly timed! TN is top of our list for finding a home base and we hope to be heading there to explore the state. You guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite RUclips channels. I better go sign up for this newsletter...it better be good or I'm asking for my money back! You hear me? BETTER. BE. GOOD.
Wow Nae went there, a "cat-astrophe" what a pun while delivering some all important pet tips during preflight close out procedures! Seriously though, Tanks Hanks for another great video in one of the most beautiful places East of the Rockies and West of The Florida Keys! Be safe guys and please pet Dexter for me!
Great job going up that mountain NeyNey!! I did it in a car and it scared the crap out of me!!! I just love Dexters little meow!! Will have to look up the campground! #ThanksHanks! ❤️❤️❤️
I live in the mountains close to Gatlinburg, actually closer to Cherokee NC. I've camped all over these mountains of NC and east Tennessee. You guys back safe and I enjoy watching your videos.
Happy 5 years of full time rv life.. We are a couple of hours from there The Smokey Mountains are beautiful and relaxing. There are alot of things to do there and yes it is geared to tourists. Hope yall enjoyed your stay take care and safe travels.
Funny part, when you said to go restock on items not used and tossed. I was like Nooooooo. Then Carl said we said no and made me do a double take. Can you see and hear us? It's ok if so, I dont bring phone into private times so we good. Love you guys, we never miss a Thursday. We even go back and watch from beginning from time to time when nothing on tv. Stay safe.
Proud of NayNay for driving in the mountains. As a truck driver my only suggestion is, when going down hill put the transmission in a lower gear so it'll help the exhaust brake to slow your rig down and save your brakes. You should only have to tap your brakes occasionally. My wife and me are planning on selling our house and going full time next year when I retire. Hopefully we'll see y'all out there. Thanks Lavon
Ney Ney, Sunday mornings in Pigeon Forge you’ll see a mass exit heading towards the interstate. That’s why your camp ground wasn’t full when you arrived. I hope you had a fabulous time. Love you and Carl’s antics. If I could I’d be out there traveling and seeing America in an RV.
I just wanted to drop a note and say how much I appreciate and enjoy your videos. The production value is great. You both are very entertaining and knowledgeable. I have been full time since December 2021. Your videos helped give me a lot of confidence. About to head to Washington from Indiana. I hope to see you on the road soon! Keep up the great work! Never change!
I wish I had known you were here so I could have taken y'all out to dinner and maybe give you some tips on good hiking trails and other things. 😁Have a good time!
I sooo look forward to your videos every week; not only do I always learn something but you guys are so honest and funny. Keep up the great work guys. The other crew I watch is Long Long Honeymoon. Started watching them a long time ago but they seem to post less now. But they’re like an older version of you youngsters. Anyway, May the road greet your wheels tenderly and the winds always be favorable! God bless.
I started watching your channel because we were thinking about getting into an RV and you guys randomly came up. The RV purchase is on hold for a bit, but I really look forward to your videos every week. The B-Roll footage in this one was fantastic! Thanks Hanks for another great glimpse into your lives this week. Stay safe, stay blessed.
Absolutely love your guys channel! My wife and I are doing the rv life as well and have been full time for 3 years! We love it and wouldn’t change as thing! We hope to see you guys out somewhere sometime! Keep it up!
First time we drove up that mountain with an rv we had an older 1/2 truck and it maxed out at 35MPH…so y’all are doing great!! We just laugh now that we have a good 3/4 truck and 5th wheel Reflection it’s a whole new world for us on travel days!
You guys crack me up. I love it. Are you sure when you drove things didn’t fall. I was dying laughing. Pigeon Forge is awesome. Thanks for sharing friends.
Hey hey Hanks another great video. Thank you. Here in the mountains and desert of El Paso people really love y'all. Not only is there Hanks Plaza but also Hanks High School. ~ Kevin and Pat
#Thanks Hanks: The Blue Ridge Mountains sure are beautiful, happy trails. I'm very excited to hopefully work as a work camper for the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg KOA in 2026, if not sooner for the summer season and enjoy the off-season spending time touring the blue Ridge mountains, the Smokies and the Ozarks. Including maybe dropping into Branson Missouri in the off season. Welcome to Pigeon Forge where the roads are narrow and so is the parking, have fun.😀😀
Love this! That is so cool to hear about your upcoming work camper experience in 2026. This is such a great place to visit and has a ton of things to do. We appreciate your time and and for always being such a great supporter with the comments 😊 - Kyle and Renee
Love watching you guys. We have stayed at Creekside 2 times and really like the campgrounds. It is very convenient to all the attractions. And the people are always friendly.
Hi Nice views. Great camp sites. Food for thought . When you are going down big hill its great you use your engines breaks but in stead of hit your breaks you can drop a gear and your engine will rev up higher and your engine breaks will come on more. I do it all the time in my truck. Go from 13 to 12 or 11 depending how heavy I am. Like you say let your truck work not your breaks. Next year hopefully we will be there see Dollywood. Take Care and safe travels Dana and Laurie
Great video My wife and I have been full timers for 50 yrs of marriage😍😍😍😍😍love RUclips vids like yours we live in Oregon if ever coming My son lives in Brentwood tn
Hi there you guys!! Always love a Karl and Ney Ney vid with the 'sexy dexy' LOL! Ney handles that rig like a champ! And we love the Tennessee area, never been to Pigeon Forge but we must go visit there! Safe travels!
The last time we were there was June 2021 and even with covid it was packed, we had a great time. Make sure you spend time in the national park that is our favorite thing to do in that area.
We stayed at Douglass tail water because of this video. What a great place, the views are amazing! We even saw eagles from our back door! Thanks for sharing!!
That looks like a B E A utiful area. I start my week long camping trip soon and look forward to exploring new destinations in the Midwest. Hope you all safe travels and maybe our paths will cross someday! Keep up the content and look forward to seeing your next video.
You are a brave woman, Renee driving your rig through the mountains. I'd be freaking out. I was so excited to see your next rally is in Ocala (my old stomping grounds) but then I saw the dates. We'll be there at the beginning of Nov & have a reservation in Clermont later in the month. I'm still working so I have to space out our trips. One day I get to a rally. Love your videos & adventures!
Been to the area 2times. Can’t wait to haul the camper down there I been trying to decide what camp ground to go to would love to stay for 2-3 weeks been watching you guys great content you have.
Hi guys, Hope you had time to explore the mountains! Cades Cove is one of my favorite places. Glad you had a good time in Tennessee. It's my favorite state. Lol. 🥰Lynn and Danny
LOL! I grew up in MA and went to NH all the time! I know mountains! Then I went to Colorado. OMG. I never knew mountains until that trip! Great video. LOL! Looks like Phil and Stacey. I love them.
Congrats on 5 years!!! We are also hitting the 5 year mark of snowbirding in AZ in a class C motorhome. Watching you crazy kids traveling all over is making me want to travel more in the summer. We live in a RV resort all summer(in a park model though). If you ever want to hit up Minnesota in the summer or fall it's a great place to be!!!
#thankshanks Man NeeNee, you rock driving that thing! I’m looking on over here like a proud little Mama xoxo I still don’t dare drive- our truck is a dually. Probably no different, I’m just a sissy. CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 ON 🎉5🎉YEARS! Cinco de Hanks! Cool joke- Cat-astrophe! #momjoke
We love y'alls videos they are so entertaining, thank you. First time ever subscribing and now trying the hole commenting thing. We'll see if I'm doing it right here in a sec. LOL. Retirement in about a year and Tennessee is at the top of the list. Been full timing in central Texas just over 2 years, and loving it. We can't wait to meet y'all at one of y'all's rallies.
FYI Smokey the Bear was in New Mexico! He was a baby bear who was found burned and orphaned after a forest fire, he was rescued, brought back to good health and became an icon in the 1950's to alert campers to the dangers of unattended fires.
That exhaust brake is a little saver in that area of I-40. My 6.0 gasser did not have one and you have to gear down and go on and off the brakes. Hope you enjoyed Pigeon Forge Knoxville
If you’re ever in the area again give Anchor down a try. We stayed there last season for the first time and it was the best campground we had ever been to. Only problem is you have to book a year in advance because it gets booked up. Great content, love your channel!!
Congratulations on the 5 years! Another Happy Thursday in the books. And Ney Ney, way to tow like a boss in the Smokeys. Did we ever find out how Carl hurt his ankle? Was is a toe hook incident? The world is waiting on the answers. Thanks again Hanks!

Congrats on 5 years!!! We are also hitting the 5 year mark of snowbirding in AZ in a class C motorhome. Watching you crazy kids traveling all over is making me want to travel more in the summer. We live in a RV resort all summer(in a park model though). If you ever want to hit up Minnesota in the summer or fall it's a great place to be!!!
My parents bought property in Dandridge and they love it up there. I was just there a few weeks ago fishing.
Oh how awesome Larry!! Sounds beautiful!
GORGEOUS Place! Cheap, quiet, and super close to Pigeon Forge Thanks for sharing.
You guys are very entertaining and informative. I love your sense of humor.
#thankshanks Man NeeNee, you rock driving that thing! I’m looking on over here like a proud little Mama xoxo I still don’t dare drive- our truck is a dually. Probably no different, I’m just a sissy. CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 ON 🎉5🎉YEARS! Cinco de Hanks! Cool joke- Cat-astrophe! #momjoke
How did I miss this one! Ugggg oh that’s right I was traveling myself! Love ya guys, Juju says “Mom, when am I going to see my love Dexter? “
Great video. I hope y'all enjoyed your trip through the gorge. Such a long drive with no cell signal. My wife goes nuts. Lol
Y’all are funny! 😂. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos..
Glad to see a video from you guys! Be safe on the road....
Thursday already! #ThanksHanks!
Scott!! We are so happy to hear from you 😊
Who knew nurses could be so funny and cool?!!! Thanks for all the great vids, hope to see y'all in Hershey next month.
We love y'alls videos they are so entertaining, thank you. First time ever subscribing and now trying the hole commenting thing. We'll see if I'm doing it right here in a sec. LOL. Retirement in about a year and Tennessee is at the top of the list. Been full timing in central Texas just over 2 years, and loving it. We can't wait to meet y'all at one of y'all's rallies.
Welcome to our channel! Thanks for joining the Hanks 🤗 We appreciate you leaving a comment!
We stayed at Douglas Tail water and we enjoyed it by the dam. Very quiet & staff was helpful.
Can you guys please start telling us how much each camp ground cost its great to know what different ones cost
Great idea! Thanks for sharing 😃
Yes please!
We can’t wait to get a rig and attend!!!! 😁
Welcome to Tennessee!!! Hope you enjoy our beautiful state.
FYI Smokey the Bear was in New Mexico! He was a baby bear who was found burned and orphaned after a forest fire, he was rescued, brought back to good health and became an icon in the 1950's to alert campers to the dangers of unattended fires.
Good to know!
That exhaust brake is a little saver in that area of I-40. My 6.0 gasser did not have one and you have to gear down and go on and off the brakes. Hope you enjoyed Pigeon Forge Knoxville
If you’re ever in the area again give Anchor down a try. We stayed there last season for the first time and it was the best campground we had ever been to. Only problem is you have to book a year in advance because it gets booked up. Great content, love your channel!!
I caught my first catfish at Douglas dam on the left as you went into the rv camp grounds
Blairsville, GA is an awesome place, Notley Lake is there and is so Beautiful!
Hey Brian! We love Blairsville!! Such a great place 😊
I love watching your videos. We are fixing to go full time RVing . Would like to meet you guys some day.
Hey you two, just made a reservation at this place thanks for the video on it. looking forward to going in September.....:)
Congratulations on the 5 years! Another Happy Thursday in the books. And Ney Ney, way to tow like a boss in the Smokeys. Did we ever find out how Carl hurt his ankle? Was is a toe hook incident? The world is waiting on the answers. Thanks again Hanks!
Thanks Charles! He ran barefoot on the beach and sprained it!
Such a fun and informative channel that never disappoints!
Great tip on the slides!!! Ive never thought of that before!!!
Where are y’all from originally? Thanks so much for bringing us along with you. TN is so pretty! ❤️🙏🏻 Jane from SC
Hey Jane! PA is our home state though Kyle grew up in Northern Cali
@@HappilyEverHanks Thanks! I was trying to place your accents and finally thought I'd just ask! Enjoy your channel!❤️
Love seeing New People doing these travel shows
We have stayed at Creek Side several times. They are good about letting you in early if the campsite is already vacant.
That looked like fun. We just left Creekside RV. Love that place. Although, it was much busier when we were there.
