Thank you for visiting our channel. We are Mo and Jeanny and we live in Homestead, FL (South Florida). I am a full time flats fishing captain and Jeanny is a professional makeup artist. Together we share the same spirit of adventure and spontaneity and one of the avenues we choose to express our sense of adventure is through camping. We have been tent camping for all our time together but now a new adventure awaits, as well as a new degree of comfort, in our "new to us" 2004 StarCraft Travel Star 21SSO hybrid camper. We can honestly admit we haven't seen a more perfect camper out there for us at this time. So, enjoy the videos and get out there and have adventures of your own!

Thank you!
it’s so nice tho!
Thank you. We definitely enjoy it in spite of the hiccups.
I'm glad you posted this video and thank you for the honest review. We are in the market for our first RV and you definitely have made us go into the process with our eyes open. I know it's a loaded question but do you think it's worth buying an RV?
Thank you and thanks for watching. That is a loaded question and the answer is different for everyone. In our case, it is definitely worth buying one since that is our favorite method of travel and we really enjoy the entire experience (minus the repairs).
La realidad es que disfrutamos nuestro RV pero si tenemos que hacer mas reparaciones de lo que deberíamos para ser uno nuevo.
Gracias!
Esta muy bueno el video. En realidad la mala cualidad de esos RV's quitan las ganas de comprar uno. Pero, su RV esta muy lindo.
Gracias por el apoyo.
Thx for this.
Thank you for watching!
Wow, how frustrating is that, you buy a new trailer and have all those issues! You guys have been more than patient. Great video. Thanks for the heads up.
Yeah most of those trailers are terrible quality.
Thank you. Yeah, it is frustrating but it would be more frustrating if our expectations were higher. Pretty sad commentary of the state of the RV industry.
I agree, they have been very patient.
Are you driving a right hand drive? Sure looks that way at the beginning... or is that just something weird with the camera angle?
LOL. It is a weird effect of the camera like when you take a selfie and any writing behind you is backwards.
Great family
Nice live highland lakes park
Love it
Thank you
Those deer are really friendly, I guess they are used to humans and cars.
They are. They will come right up to the RV at night during camp fires.
Thanks for sharing with us. It's been nice going along of the ride. Keep it up.
Thanks for coming along on the ride.
Great place to visit
Me encanta Georgia!
Es bello
En serio creo que hay fantasmas en ese lugar. :)
I thought I saw a ghost behind you in one of the shots. LOL
LOL
I've been planning a visit to Jekyll, great video. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for watching!
Love the drone shots, very cool
Yeah the drone makes such a difference in the videos. Too bad we can barely fly them anywhere now.
Thank you. Yes, it's tough when you own a drone, can hardly use it anywhere and yet the shot potential is excellent.
Me encanto ese viaje!
Si, estaba lindisimo!
Such a beautiful place.
It really is

Love the video. The train ride was nice but not sure I'd pay for the trip. Looks like the town would be more fun.
Poor little girl, she looks like she is a trooper. I hope she's OK.
Thank you. Yes, she is pretty tough. We tried to make her laugh to distract her but she is fine now. Turns out it was a very bad sprain. Thank God!

Yes, he was fired up about truffle oil. LOL
I’d love the video. That place is beautiful.

@@oceanbeliever681 You’re spoiled! It’s such a better and different lifestyle up there. We love it but not so much when it gets really “cold”. We’re from Miami so “cold” is relative. lol.
That Tallulah hike looked challenging!
It was, there were people off to the side of the stairs catching their breaths and others not feeling well.
Wow the leaves look amazing.
Yes, we were surprised it could get that pretty in north GA and the leaves got prettier with each passing day.
Great trip!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Nice rig. I've got a 2024 Gladiator and am researching camper towing capabilities and possibilities. Have you done any videos talking about your hitch setup (WDH or not, etc.), the real world tongue weight of your new rig and how that is affecting payload for your JT, how heavy the trailer is loadaed, etc.? I'd appreciate hearing some actual experience from a fellow JT owner/Rver. Thanks!
@@jaketheFIXER Thanks for watching! Since I published this video I traded in the JT and got a full size pick up. While it wasn’t what I really wanted to do, the constant electrical issues with my JT forced the decision. With that being said, the Gladiator towed this camper just fine. I haven’t done any videos on WDH or weights but I’ll provide what I can as follows: I have a Camco Recurve WDH and is amazing. I do believe the JT benefits greatly from a WDH therefore I wouldn’t tow without it, even with my new full size pick up. The Recurve has a built in anti sway feature that helps quite a bit. The dry weight of this rv is about 4200lbs dry plus battery, 2 30lb propane tanks plus all our stuff. My best guess is our fully loaded trailer is at about low 5k pounds. The JT towed it well as the Sport S with tow package has a max tow rating of about 6,500lbs. It’s always best to tow at max 80% of your max tow rating. While towing fully loaded the RPMS were about 3500 vs 2500 when not towing (that’s on the freeway). Mpg were between 8-10, not any different from my current full-size with a V8. Let me know if I forgot to answer any other questions. Enjoy your JT, I loved mine.
What a crazy trip and crazy weather. Great job!
@@jiniarreaza thank you. It was fun! Oh, and tiring.
Que viaje mas divertido!
@@makeupexpertise1267 si, nos encantó.
Love the video. Boy, you guys sure did lots of exploring on this trip. That brewery scene with Jenny was so funny.
@@cutefunctionalities thanks for watching. Jenny is hilarious!!
@@cutefunctionalities thanks for watching. We had a blast and yes, Jenny is hilarious!
Your in Miami, and your driving on passenger seat?
The JT and JL are definitely not for everyone. You have to go into it with realistic expectations. The fuel mileage is crap. You'll inevitably have water leak into the interior at some point. The power from the pentastar is crap. The cabin will always be noisy. For all of that you get a vehicle that is great off-road and a lot of fun on a nice day when you can take the top off. Do I regret my purchase? No. You could have my JT over my cold dead body
Its a Jeep! I dont know why people expect it to be refined, smooth & quiet?! Still loving my '02 TJ 4.0L.
lemon exist, i got a crap hynday santa fe 2013 always on towing but they have good reputation. my gladiator 2020 is all good in 2024 now. shit happen.
If you don't have a trailer/camper, and so will sleep in tent or car, does the campground have bathrooms with running water and flush toilets ? Or what is the setup?
Yes, they do have a separate area for tents and there are nice bathrooms with showers and toilets and the tent sites we saw did have water and electric.
Oh, one more thing. Make sure to bring bug repellent and check your legs often for the tiny red ticks I mentioned in the video. I'm not sure what type of ticks they are since I didn't look into it but I suspect they have to do with the large amounts of deer in the park.
Hey, Sweet, super- that's outstanding channel. :)
@@eprohoda thank you! 🙏
That was a fun trip!
Happy birthday Mo! Looks like you guys had a blast. Your videos are so much fun. Thanks for sharing your trips.
@@cutefunctionalities Thank you so much!
Very likely this is an Apple iPhone issue. I have the same issue with my iPhone 14 with my 4Runner.
How does the Gladiator compare to the Grand Cherokee if you ever towed with both? Thanks
@@RevMatchTrackDays I owned a Grand Cherokee years ago but is tough to compare because that platform has changed much. However, it is a different ride and experience.
Que video mas divertido. me encanta.
