Hey Matt, you can get a long extension for your drill to lower the tire or in/out the slide if you have any issues. Oh you guys go on walks so check out the garmin instinct 2x tactical watch. You will never be lost brother.

Our TPMS monitors all 10 tires when we roll down the road. Never leave home without it. We love our Viair

Totally agree with your advice on towing. Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Scares me to see all the ads for "half ton towable". A good source for info on this is Big Truck Big RV channel.

Make sure all electronics like phone and tablets are locked and is PASSWORD PROTECTED! Have the tracking turned on! That’s my say. 😀

PDI= probably didn't Inspect.

As you know, my camper is tiny. I don't have all of the same things to check as you do. When I had a 13 ft Scamp, I thought it was latched onto the hitch correctly, and I even put a pin lock in it. I drove it off the grass onto the road, and it slammed down onto the road, because it had come off the hitch. From then on, even in my current tiny camper that has a 6 by 9 ft box, I always, always, crank it back up after hooking everything up. If it is not latched correctly, it will come right back up off the hitch. If it is latched correctly, it will try to lift the car, and that is when I know that everything is okay. So this is my version of your tug test that would work for any travel trailer that isn't a fifth wheel.

Great advice on inspections.

Great advice. Your “slow is smooth” saying came from the Marines.

Great conversation, thanks for another good video!

Some folks are just so clueless..... its easy to learn especially with you tube

The problem with the water filters is, they will filter out dirt and sediments, but not necessarily contaminants that can make you sick. Those are much more expensive and it’s not just those little Camco ones. RV filters are not created equal. We’re having a water softener put in and I’d like to have something that filters the contaminants-I don’t think the built-in one in our motorhome is enough . Do you know of anything we can add that’s small and not pricey?

Spot on with the bad advice & to call it bad advice! We can't wait to find the Fiat Truck! 😂 But gloves are a must, locking your stuff up is a must & smart to get an expectation!!

IF YOU HAVES A TH-cam CHANNEL AND YOU SHOWS YOUR RV TO EVERYONE EVERYWHERES, DON'T SHOW EVERYONE WHERE OR WHAT YOU HAVES & WHERES YOU KEEPS IT ! YOU CAN JUST I JUST STORE STUFF IN THE CABINETS ECT.. IT'S A SMALL SPACE AND YOU DON'T HAVES TO SHOW EVERYONE EVERYTHING !

BE SURE THAT YOU KNOWS IF THE CAMPGROUND HAS A DOG BREEDS RESTRICTIONS !?

GETS YOUR LOCKS CHANGED TOO !

Another bad advice is. ...its ok to leave your awning out when you're not around camp, or even at night when you're sleeping. Weather can change at anytime. ✌️❤️

We did research and the Berkey came up short on integrity with their research & transparency. We’re going to get a Brita system. We bought a lock for a surge protector after a man pointed it out (did it in a really nice way). We’ve been very thankful we have a long box. Especially now that we need to put our bikes (human powered) in it.

Great video! Thank you guys. Safe travels

Great points - agree with them all. We don't have a 5er so learned a few things on that if/when the day comes.... So true on the max towing advice from the dealer - most trucks these days can tow a lot more than they have payload for, and that is frequently used by dealers the sole metric. We have had advice just to keep the black tank valve open when at a FH site - fortunately didn't take that.

Great to see you guys and your down home honest delivery of somewhat uncomfortable subjects was awesome. We are class A people but I really learned a lot about towables that I did not know! Travel safe and we will see you this fall? Thomyt

Great advice for people. We use the water pressure regulator, lock our surge protector, use a water filter and Berkey and my husband wears gloves then hand sanitizer.

You two are great! love our Berkey! no more bottled water hauling! Bless you both.

Higher prices increases theft! Sewer hoses, ...they have gotten more expensive.....almost doubled in last 4 years. Ridiculous

Good advise, I will wipe down the water spigot with Clorox wipes before hooking up the pressure regular. We also use a 2 stage 0.5 micro pre filter system with a 16,000 grain water softener. Then a post 2 stage 0.5 micro filter in the whole house filter canister. The 0.5 micro pre filter system that we use does not reduce or restrict flow, only contaminants.

Glad there wasn't a fire, but did look like it! Love the new shirt!!

Don’t take wooden nickels!

I had a spray bottle of 50/50 Bleach/Water and sprayed Everything, Water or Sewer related. Connections and areas around them Before Touching even With Gloves!

Unicorns and Fairy tails??? 😂 All good so true info!

You guys Rock!!!! Newbies and oldies alike. Great info y’all!!!!!!

Wow! I want to thank both of you for this informative and honest video. Your sharing of various things most RVer's will come across along with how to avoid, is priceless!!! In addition, your recommendation of buying a H20 pressure gauge is well received. Looking forward to hearing from you 2 again! Best regards, Bob from Prescott AZ

Did you know that Heartland RV produced the brand "Bighorn" back in 2004 with a 'patented front cap' that allowed a SHORT BED truck to achieve a 88 degree turn WITH A FIXED 5TH WHEEL HITCH. There are a lot of factors that go into picking the right 5th wheel hitch to go WITH the 5th wheel trailer......they are intertwined and GOOD ADVICE from an experienced RV sales person is invaluable. So making a blanket statement of, "everyone should get a automatic sliding hitch", is wrong. Sorry, but experience counts here.

Well done. You have given great advice! We all are different when it comes to things we use and haul around, from hardly anything (week-end warriors) to full timers that carry tool chests and full complement battery operated power tools, generators, etc. just be aware of loads.. it kinda grossed me out when someone was washing out their sewer hose… so wrong! Now I’ll start cleaning the spigot. Great content!

We've had our 5th wheel and short bed truck for ten years. Popped the back glass twice. After second breakage got the Superglide (like yours). Very happy I have it now. You still have to pay attention. All good points in the video.

Bad advice: Never put toilet paper in your black tank. Or only use RV paper!

Great advice! I'd add, when buying an RV, bigger isn't always better. 😂

I totally agree about the inspection! We paid to have our rig inspected and found $3000 worth of work that needed to be done.

There is far more bad advice than anyone could ever cover in a life time of videos, but every bit on info helps. Good vlog.

Was told you don’t need a Surge protector. 😮
