    My name is Dave and I travel with my dog Bella in a 1987 Class A Motorhome. My channel is about full time RV Living in an older RV while keeping the wheels rolling on a budget. I do the repairs, updates and upgrades myself. I’ve become my own RV Mechanic/Medic! I seek boondocking opportunities every chance I can and power the RV with 500 watts of solar and approximately 500 amp hours of batteries. RV Resorts are just not our style!

    Magnolia trees. I think they're pretty and the flowers smell good too. I don't know why someone would say they're dirty.

    Dave maby you can overcome your fear of hights by skydiving? It’s can become your most popular video yet? Just kidding I had dizzy feeling myself looking down space nidle in Seattle WA. Probably will need pampers if I get any higher lol.

    Oh my gosh “E ⛽️”. I never would’ve thought you’d let the tank go below 1/4. I would’ve been freaking out. Years ago Dad advised always fill up around 1/2 tank level as I don’t want to panic on long stretches. 🚌

  • @RVAshsinApril
    @RVAshsinApril 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

  • @lesleyhughes3174
    @lesleyhughes3174 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Dave, my late father always told me not to let my tank get less than quarter, because all of the rubbish in your tank gets stirred up when too low and can cause issues as it makes its way through your motor.

  • @r8edrv4fun65
    @r8edrv4fun65 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    7:23 The original tunnel is a two-way street and smaller. 😮

    • @r8edrv4fun65
      @r8edrv4fun65 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The road that goes under I-10 goes to the old Mobile tunnel.

    • @TheSwitzertrainer
      @TheSwitzertrainer 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That is the old hwy 90 Bankhead Tunnel. NOT for RV. Many scars on the roof of the tunnel. That low road is Highway 90. I can remember when it was two lanes. Showing my age, ain't I?

    Hey, Dave! You were in our stomping ground going through Mobile and Pensacola. We live an hour N of both. Great seafood from Pascagoula on. Quite often you can find a boat and buy it fresh. Best sugary white sand beaches too. Going across Mobile bay is a nice little state bbn park/campground with fishing pier and a boardwalk over some marsh. Gaters can be seen there. We've just been home from 4 months in SW. COLD and FRIGID is how its been, low as 18 one nite. Few years back it was like this and we trucked it to Florida. South as far as Sebring area with the cold following. Safe travels.

    Ugh! I know that rest area well. I spent a lot of time there in April 2022. I had stopped in my RV and dropped my keys just as I was closing the drivers door. Lulu and I were locked out until a mobile tow company could come and let me back in the RV. I need to figure out where to hide a spare set in one of the cargo bays or remember to put them on a lanyard to hang around my neck. Thank goodness I had my phone and could call for help. And thank you for the video that triggered me to actually make a plan if it happens again.

  • @Wenowknow
    @Wenowknow 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I learned when a tunnel goes down, if there is a propane leak it has no way to escape so keep your propane off when anticipating a tunnel. If there was a reason to have to sit in the tunnel (a broken down car or accident), everyone would slowly go to sleep and never wake up.
    Take the alternative route since learning that. I'd hate to have my motorhome be the cause of a catastrophe.

    The sunshine state hasn't been very sunny this season. Hopefully that is about to change. When we came down I10 in November it was a nightmare. They were trimming trees and blocking one lane so traffic backed up for almost an hour 2-3 times. It sucked. Hopefully you have smooth sailing. We have pushed it on travel days before too. It gets scary when the rv gets low on gas. Glad you made it to the station.

    I believe that last large body of water was the Gulf of Mexico. By now you’ve probably seen local news whereas Ocala is going to have temps clear down in the low 30’s but possibly into the mid 20’s with windchill factor. That’s for tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday. We’ve really had a mild winter so far so this is doable however y’all might want to head even further south below Orlando.🦩

    Have you ever toured the battleship in Mobile? I saw the sign for the Battlehship Park. The Chesapeak Bay Tunnel is more anxiety provoking for me. It's longer, plus you have to travel over a lot of water. The older I got, the less I liked bridges if I can't see land on the other side. Thanks for the ride along today.
    (PS: It looks like Ausia has a rear marker light out.)
