Well, $60 ummm nope! You are very cute together & humorous! We are only 3/4 time RV’ers and get some great ideas from you both. Keep up the great work! ps…. another TN kayak meet up is in order when we warm up here a bit!
Hey guys I got a message that says I won a prize, just go to telegram, is that you guys? It has your pic, but not your name anywhere, just want to verify that it's you?
You guys crack me up! My wife and I have been camping for decades, first tent, then travel trailer, and then motorhome. The food thing: I definitely suffer from being hangry from time to time. (understatement of the year) And when we went on our first trip in the motorhome, I will never forget my wife sitting the kids down and giving them dinner while I'm driving and the most MAGICAL thing happened shortly after that!!! A plate with chips and a PB&J sandwich appeared!! It was the first of many such sandwiches and they always are amazing b/c A: I'm usually hangry B: I don't have to stop driving!! Driving the fam around in a vehicle full of beds, a kitchen and a bathroom is simply one of the greatest ways to travel!!! :) Keep up the great stories guys, we're living vicariously through you for the time being! :)
Fully agree! Too few women even attempt the driving. That was the best piece of advise I got when we got our 36’ TT in 2000. I never drove our class C (never a toad) for the 6 years. Now I drive 50-50 with the hubby, and often better☺️. Currently on our second 26’ TT….. downsized after the 4 kids grew up💁🏻♀️ So let’s get more women to drive their rigs!!!
@@arbonneladyTN LOL You should see the look I get from guys when I step down from my truck. They aren't used to seeing a 5 foot something gal driving a 3/4 ton (now 1 ton for future upgrade) pulling a rig...sometimes with an ATV on a rack in the bed. George (my cat) hasn't gotten the hang of driving even though I keep trying.
We stayed at a Love’s RV spot in Tennessee. We didn’t have all the amenities , just electric and all back in spots. $30/night. It was perfect for an overnight stay before getting back on road. Very convenient and the staff was amazing Supposedly they are wanting to put them at all the Love’s truck stop
We did the same thing back in October. We had driven all day and then rain hit. The LOVE’s RV spot was perfect. Great restrooms, had a great pizza, filled up on fuel and even filled a propane tank. Very productive and relaxing stop.
As a trucker there is probably nothing more secure than a truck stop if any trucker sees that you guys are in any problem even if your truck broke down they will be there to help you at least the old school ones there are still plenty of those left like me that will go above and beyond to help and get the bad people gone!
$60 seems high for one night. But if you are in a bind and need a place you will pay what ya have to! Thanks for sharing and checking it out for all of us!
My take on the RV stop. First easy to get in and out. A second, big rig friendly Third level concrete pads. Full hook ups. Better than Truck stop parking and you can put your slides out. Sites are long enough to unhook if you want to but you don't have to. Just a few of my thoughts. I stayed in one in Georgia and it is a great overnighter for us
I stayed in the same Loves RV spot about 6 months ago. I like it for overnights. It's more expensive than I like but It is nice to have the convenience of the store available. We also use the 10 cents off a gallon on the app when we fill up before we leave🙂
Not really. Iam a retired Florida law enforcement officer and you would be suspended at what goes on. I was a Trooper in south Florida and we made alot of arrest for prostitution, domestic violence and countless drug arrest. When I transferred to the panhandle and worked for the Okaloosa County Sheriff's office we made alot of arrest for human trafficking. If you do stay at a truck stop do not stay in the back. Try to stay as close to the main store as possible.
“Safe” don’t think so. Also truckers don’t sleep. My dad was one and could not get sleeping for hookers knocking on the door saying” want a date”. Shameful! he had to move
@Charles Phillips I'm also retired LEO from Florida, I've traveled this whole country and stayed at hundreds of truck stops. I never had an issue with anyone.
We look for Loves RV stops when we are in travel mode. Convenient as heck and FULL SERVICE, yeppers. that's a go for us. Got the app on our phone. Truck noises don't bother us when we are in travel mode b/c we are usually tired and we run a fan anyway. Wish there were more of them. No, it's not worth 60 bucks if you want someplace to stay for a few days, no way, but hey, quick overnight stays it works if you are out on the road w/no place to stay. Walmarts are not our favorite and they are getting fewer and farther between to stay there. We only hit one Walmart going out west from IL. that had overnight RV permission. Six others we asked, (just out of curiosity) said "Nada". Loves RV's are safe and we are really skeptical of staying at a lot of the "freebie sites" out there anymore. Been some shady places where we just pulled up and left b/c it was not safe, no hook ups, all sorts of creepy people around. Not gonna do that anymore.
Yes, we always trust our gut instinct as well when traveling. I mean that's all you really have to go on when faced with new places constantly. Sounds like ya'll are made for the travel life 😊 Thank you for your amazing support and for watching our videos!
The ones in Tennessee are like Nay Nay expected, literally just like reserved parking spots on the far side of the parking lot from the Travel Centers, most of them have only 5-10, one of them has 4, but they are $30-$45, not $60.
We're with ya. $60 plus pay for pickleball, $5 for a load of laundry... a bit steep for an overnight location. I agree with you that it's not a travel destination but, it could be a great alternative to boondocking.
☺️😁🫣 we are thinking of doing this for a year with the last 2 kids left at home before they move out. Watching y’all has given us so much information!! Super excited. In the dreaming and planning stages now 🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼
We always use truck stops. You can run your generator all night if you need AC and the spots are huge. I can’t wait to see the truck stops that are going to have hookups now for rv’s.
Current rates for overnight stays are all over the place, but mostly they are just way overpriced. I am so glad you stayed at the Love's and dished on it so we don't have to! We are staying at a KOA off I-95 without a sewer hookup tomorrow night and it is costing us $72.
OMG! What night were u there? We stayed there on 1/14 on our way to FL . It was cold! We were in a Reflection 150. The place is super nice m, they have over 40 sites. Fire pits, picnic tables, some covered. We only pd around $50 because we made reservations several weeks ahead. Do the back in sites,they are next to the pecan grove.
We rarely stop at Love's just because they are usually more overpriced. We haven't done the RV camping and thank you for this video. We will stick to Harvest Hosts on travel days. Funny that you pointed out pickle ball there as we have most recently gotten into the sport. We are early 40's and love it! While watching you go to 'Hardee's' I giggled because we grew up on the west coast and kept saying it is 'Carl's Jr.' Thanks for keeping it interesting for us. Just stopped at another Buc-ee's and finally picked up some Beaver Nuggets. Thanks for that advice!
I saw one for $38.00, the sites were in front of the truck stop between the gas pumps and the highway. Not as fancy as the one you stayed in. But if you're looking for hookups and dumping your tanks and spending one night, I would do it.
Ok "Hanksters", I have a tip for you guys when you can't drive in a drive thru. Have you ever walked a drive thru. Yup, I've done it. The staff didn't even bat a eye. Pat. Oh, love your videos.
Try overnighting in Welcome Centers usually close to state lines, or Rest Areas too! It's allowed in most states and It's really safe there as well because truckers overnight there too!! And of course Cracker Barrel if there's one in route!! Treat yourself to a decent meal 😋 👌 Also when I know we're going to be traveling for several days I prepare numerous meals ie... sloppy joes, pot of soup or chili, egg salad and tuna salad for sandwiches, etc... It keeps us out of the fast food restaurants and saves us money 💰 🤑 Happy Travels!✌
When driving a lot ziplock two or three sandwiches pickles in a ziplock bag of favorite chips good for five hundred miles as long as your coffee cup is full water bottles ready get on down the road.
Did you ever think of by earplugs disposable they sell in drugstores or sporting good stores? Living with a wife and 2 kids who are deaf trying to sleep early to give a work at 3 o'clock it's kinda hard thay dont know how to be quiet. they don't know how to be quiet. I wore them since I was 18 years old on my 1st job I'm now 68 retired and I wore them every day of my life going to work at work and for sleepin bed I can hear a pin drop. Figuratively speaking. I have a very slight ringing of the ear because of old age other then that I'm very grateful that I can hear.
I have watch your channel from the start. I would like to see y’all get back to exsplorer ing campgrounds and area’s . Showing places to visit. Your hung up on meet ups and how to videos. Please stay safe
Wow, a little too steep for an overnight stop. Ye s, it looks secure but think there are alternatives. Thank you for showing this. Maybe they have coupons available.
Loved the video! Y'all are so cute and fun to watch. $60 for the Love's site is excessive. We did look at the Love's website and price varies with location. So maybe worth checking out before stopping for a night.
Hmmm. You crazy kids. I'm amazed at the place but I suppose if you're stuck for a place and want a hookup for power and water....the price is a tad high for sure. How come your RV app didn't find you a better place, just saying. Have fun and drive safe. Really enjoy your videos.
I would so play some pickleball there lol we take our stuff everywhere we go just in case there is a court. I think the price for the Loves is high but if that's what you have then use it.
Fast food joints or any place that has a drive through, they’ll let you walk through and order if you tell them you have a truck/ tow that is too big to drive through. Also you can order DoorDash, Uber eats etc, right from your truck, at the truck stop. And don’t be so scared of truckers, my hubs a trucker, and MOST of them are awesome! Can’t wait until we’re full time. Hope we get to run into y’all someday. #marriagegoals
Truck stop/Rest stop rules for us. Earplugs. Whoever drives in the morning gets to wear earplugs. The other one gets to hear everything for security sake.
Stay out of truck stops with your campers it’s called truck stop for reason not rv park. Parking is hard to find for truckers don’t need loosing a spot when you can go to rv park.
I love your channel but as a local driver nowaday coming from a OTR background hope RV wouldn't use our spots. Unless its paid spots then its fair game as far I am concern. Keep in mind if you buy a parking spot from truck stop and its late in the day and all them are taken. A truck stops 99% will not force the truck driver to move even if he didn't pay for the spot and you did. This has happened me a few times as OTR driver. Big deal for truckers is we don't have alot places to park in fact thats one the bigger issues truckers have to deal with
I’ll take a free Cracker Barrel and a great breakfast. The wife, the pup, and my Sig sleep very well. Any where that doesn’t allow the pup or the Sig doesn’t get our business.
They blame that they can't open them up due to not having enough workers. But at $15-$20 an hour for fast food workers I can see why they don't open them up.
The Other Half & I could sleep right through the trains, planes & trucker-mobiles! As far as the RV Stop is concerned, I'd say $60 seems a bit steep & maybe $40 would be a fair price. It could be a factor in why the place was so desolate compared to a K*O*A type campground.
P.S. Our strategy on overnight stays is to pick a place to fill up closest to our destination with a fast food and get dinner to go. Then get to our camp site and set up for the evening without having to cook. Some times we get lucky to be able to walk to a breakfast place before eating breakfast, but frozen waffles and fruit are also good to go easy breakfast to have on hand.
Don't like loves, we was charged 93 times on our credit card, same time ,same day, still trying to get it off our card,since last November, love you all,
60 dollars a little expensive but better than trying to stay at a hotel and it's full hookups so let 'ur rip. We are Chick Filet people but Arby's works.
Hey ya'll ❤️❤️❤️ I think the $60 price tag comes as a result of the 'emergent need' factor. They know in a pinch, so many people would pay for that, amenities included or not :) love you both!!!
The convenience, abundant amenities and automation all make the Loves site look like good value. The Hanks always give an entertaining, yet informative, presentation. So many other vloggers eventually devolve into narcissistic, patronizing, ignorant hypocrites. Their on-scene delivery is friendly and welcoming; never arrogant. I have never regretted becoming a subscriber to their channel. Keep up the good work. Thanks Hanks.
Funny thing is I’m a trucker for 28 years so when I hear engine noise and train horns I sleep good. And sleep through it all night. I sleep better in my truck than I do at home.
Don’t have a camper but I’m addicted to watching y’all. Love y’all’s personalities. I swear if I ever see you guys in person y’all gonna think I’m crazy. 😂😂 because I’m going to act like I know you. Lol. I look at the truck stop I pass every morning to see if ”D” is there. Dam that sounds stalker-ish. Seriously tho, love the content. And would probably just leave note since I pass sooooo early heading to work. Can’t be late for the grind. Lol. You guys are awesome. Team HANKS. no favorites. Love you both.
We hope that you are having a wonderful New Year so far! It’s still a little chilly, but hopefully some humor can help warm your hearts! Much love to you all as always - the Hanks family :)

We're currently in Key West, Florida. Yeah, we're staying warm and we hope to meet y'all at the Tampa RV show! When will you be there again?
Well, $60 ummm nope!
You are very cute together & humorous!
We are only 3/4 time RV’ers and get some great ideas from you both. Keep up the great work!
ps…. another TN kayak meet up is in order when we warm up here a bit!
Haven’t lived until you overnite in the Loves. Just back in where the trucks park and wait to see what shows up
Hey guys I got a message that says I won a prize, just go to telegram, is that you guys? It has your pic, but not your name anywhere, just want to verify that it's you?
Replies that day you won something and to contact on telegram ARE FAKE! Do not respond!
You guys crack me up! My wife and I have been camping for decades, first tent, then travel trailer, and then motorhome. The food thing: I definitely suffer from being hangry from time to time. (understatement of the year) And when we went on our first trip in the motorhome, I will never forget my wife sitting the kids down and giving them dinner while I'm driving and the most MAGICAL thing happened shortly after that!!!

You go, Ney Ney, driving that rig! So inspiring!
Fully agree! Too few women even attempt the driving.
That was the best piece of advise I got when we got our 36’ TT in 2000. I never drove our class C (never a toad) for the 6 years.
Now I drive 50-50 with the hubby, and often better☺️. Currently on our second 26’ TT….. downsized after the 4 kids grew up💁🏻♀️
So let’s get more women to drive their rigs!!!
@@arbonneladyTN That's great!

As a former tuck driver, I sleep like a baby in truck stops. Idling engines are my white noise.
Hey Ney Ney and Carl, Dont be knocking us truckers. Now you know how we feel and our rigs wont fit in the drive thur either!
The truck stops are probably one of the safest places to stay.
EXACTLY!
Not really. Iam a retired Florida law enforcement officer and you would be suspended at what goes on. I was a Trooper in south Florida and we made alot of arrest for prostitution, domestic violence and countless drug arrest. When I transferred to the panhandle and worked for the Okaloosa County Sheriff's office we made alot of arrest for human trafficking. If you do stay at a truck stop do not stay in the back.

If the swift drivers don't hit your rig.
“Safe” don’t think so. Also truckers don’t sleep. My dad was one and could not get sleeping for hookers knocking on the door saying” want a date”. Shameful! he had to move
@Charles Phillips I'm also retired LEO from Florida, I've traveled this whole country and stayed at hundreds of truck stops. I never had an issue with anyone.
$60 is a big nope for me. Koa’s are everywhere and around the sand or less. We stayed at one in Missouri that was $38 and I thought that was a lot.

Talked to our realtor today….listing our house in a couple of weeks. Leaving in early to mid-April. We’ll see you out there! 😊
We are working on getting back into RV travel, and this was a great vid to see some of the new options that are available these days. Thanks!
Loves Truck Stop - I’d never have guessed. I actually checked and they have lots of places!!! I actually now I want to try Loves!!
the lift on your truck looks amazing
Chick fil A, Raising Cane's, or Buccees are our go to travel meals if we're not fixing sandwiches out of our trailer.
Excellent choices!❤
Yes truck stops are pretty safe always woke up between cattle car or a refer cow smells or freezer noise
The ones in Tennessee are like Nay Nay expected, literally just like reserved parking spots on the far side of the parking lot from the Travel Centers, most of them have only 5-10, one of them has 4, but they are $30-$45, not $60.
We're with ya. $60 plus pay for pickleball, $5 for a load of laundry... a bit steep for an overnight location. I agree with you that it's not a travel destination but, it could be a great alternative to boondocking.
☺️😁🫣 we are thinking of doing this for a year with the last 2 kids left at home before they move out. Watching y’all has given us so much information!! Super excited. In the dreaming and planning stages now 🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼
A truckstop ( reserved fee) is $12 an hour! Regulations… 10 hour break. Do the math AND. No full hookups!
Learn something new everyday. Had no idea Loves had RV sights but i do know their beef jerky is the best! Great videos y'all! Travel safe.
We always use truck stops. You can run your generator all night if you need AC and the spots are huge. I can’t wait to see the truck stops that are going to have hookups now for rv’s.
Hopefully we can catch up with y’all if you make it to Oklahoma.
Yes, hopefully our paths can cross! We would like to make it to OK soon, but we always seem to be traveling around tornado season 😣
We pack a lunch on travel days. We have an electric cooler and pack it night before we travel we always buy Subway .
Current rates for overnight stays are all over the place, but mostly they are just way overpriced. I am so glad you stayed at the Love's and dished on it so we don't have to! We are staying at a KOA off I-95 without a sewer hookup tomorrow night and it is costing us $72.
OMG! What night were u there? We stayed there on 1/14 on our way to FL . It was cold! We were in a Reflection 150. The place is super nice m, they have over 40 sites. Fire pits, picnic tables, some covered. We only pd around $50 because we made reservations several weeks ahead. Do the back in sites,they are next to the pecan grove.
$60 seems like a lot for a truck stop overnight. Perhaps that explains why you appeared to be the only ones there!
We rarely stop at Love's just because they are usually more overpriced. We haven't done the RV camping and thank you for this video. We will stick to Harvest Hosts on travel days. Funny that you pointed out pickle ball there as we have most recently gotten into the sport. We are early 40's and love it! While watching you go to 'Hardee's' I giggled because we grew up on the west coast and kept saying it is 'Carl's Jr.' Thanks for keeping it interesting for us. Just stopped at another Buc-ee's and finally picked up some Beaver Nuggets. Thanks for that advice!
Our house is right on the train tracks, probably the same line as at this truck stop, we would sleep well, lol, it’s like white noise to us!!
I saw one for $38.00, the sites were in front of the truck stop between the gas pumps and the highway. Not as fancy as the one you stayed in. But if you're looking for hookups and dumping your tanks and spending one night, I would do it.
Little America in Wyoming has rv park for 39.00 a night.
Ok "Hanksters", I have a tip for you guys when you can't drive in a drive thru. Have you ever walked a drive thru. Yup, I've done it. The staff didn't even bat a eye. Pat. Oh, love your videos.
Dexter probably has to pee. That’s when my cat starts screaming on the road.
Watching this video while on vacation in Florida, I LOL'd when you asked, How many times have we been up and down I-75?"
Try overnighting in Welcome Centers usually close to state lines, or Rest Areas too! It's allowed in most states and It's really safe there as well because truckers overnight there too!! And of course Cracker Barrel if there's one in route!! Treat yourself to a decent meal 😋 👌
Also when I know we're going to be traveling for several days I prepare numerous meals ie... sloppy joes, pot of soup or chili, egg salad and tuna salad for sandwiches, etc... It keeps us out of the fast food restaurants and saves us money 💰 🤑
Happy Travels!✌
Nope only in a crunch,!! Maybe if it's in a rural area & nothing else. Nice amenities but $60.00 is steep..🤔🤔😮😫😲😂😂
A bit much I do KOAs and be $35 only H2O and electric to $55 with full hook up and for a pull thru.
When driving a lot ziplock two or three sandwiches pickles in a ziplock bag of favorite chips good for five hundred miles as long as your coffee cup is full water bottles ready get on down the road.
Did you ever think of by earplugs disposable they sell in drugstores or sporting good stores?
Living with a wife and 2 kids who are deaf trying to sleep early to give a work at 3 o'clock it's kinda hard thay dont know how to be quiet. they don't know how to be quiet. I wore them since I was 18 years old on my 1st job I'm now 68 retired and I wore them every day of my life going to work at work and for sleepin bed I can hear a pin drop. Figuratively speaking. I have a very slight ringing of the ear because of old age other then that I'm very grateful that I can hear.
That’s a High dollar Hanks resort 😮
I have watch your channel from the start. I would like to see y’all get back to exsplorer ing campgrounds and area’s . Showing places to visit. Your hung up on meet ups and how to videos. Please stay safe
Wow, a little too steep for an overnight stop. Ye s, it looks secure but think there are alternatives. Thank you for showing this. Maybe they have coupons available.
Loved the video! Y'all are so cute and fun to watch. $60 for the Love's site is excessive. We did look at the Love's website and price varies with location. So maybe worth checking out before stopping for a night.
C4U2 🥰
Thank you Duke! We appreciate your wonderful support 😃
Hardee’s rocks
When we stop for gas, we pull over and make a peanut butter and jelly or have a bowl of cereal. I get hangry!
I think all amenities the $60 was good.
Taking advantage but....if you need quick stay it would make do Price gouging in my humble opionion
Travel days are Cracker Barrel. We get food, bathroom breaks and my wife expands her wardrobe but buying something. One stop shopping.
My kitties travel home is called her car seat…😺
Hmmm. You crazy kids. I'm amazed at the place but I suppose if you're stuck for a place and want a hookup for power and water....the price is a tad high for sure. How come your RV app didn't find you a better place, just saying. Have fun and drive safe. Really enjoy your videos.
$60 is a lot to stay at the Redneck Revi-ever I have seen on other TH-cam channels people staying at LOVES for as little as $39 a night.
That price surprised me. It should be less. We stay in Valdosta Georgia some times on the way yo Florida, $45 for overnight.
It looks safe…but at $60.00 a night..I think other places might be just as good..
I would so play some pickleball there lol we take our stuff everywhere we go just in case there is a court. I think the price for the Loves is high but if that's what you have then use it.
We always pack a lunch. Too hard to find food on the road where we can get in and out of the parking lot.
Fast food joints or any place that has a drive through, they’ll let you walk through and order if you tell them you have a truck/ tow that is too big to drive through. Also you can order DoorDash, Uber eats etc, right from your truck, at the truck stop. And don’t be so scared of truckers, my hubs a trucker, and MOST of them are awesome! Can’t wait until we’re full time. Hope we get to run into y’all someday. #marriagegoals
Nay nay,got some Copenhagen in your back pocket there?!?!?!?🤣
Definitely price gouging. That’s ridiculously high.
We pack snacks and stop for meals when we stop for fuel.
Truck stop/Rest stop rules for us. Earplugs. Whoever drives in the morning gets to wear earplugs. The other one gets to hear everything for security sake.
Stay out of truck stops with your campers it’s called truck stop for reason not rv park. Parking is hard to find for truckers don’t need loosing a spot when you can go to rv park.
I love your channel but as a local driver nowaday coming from a OTR background hope RV wouldn't use our spots. Unless its paid spots then its fair game as far I am concern. Keep in mind if you buy a parking spot from truck stop and its late in the day and all them are taken. A truck stops 99% will not force the truck driver to move even if he didn't pay for the spot and you did. This has happened me a few times as OTR driver. Big deal for truckers is we don't have alot places to park in fact thats one the bigger issues truckers have to deal with
I’ll take a free Cracker Barrel and a great breakfast. The wife, the pup, and my Sig sleep very well. Any where that doesn’t allow the pup or the Sig doesn’t get our business.
You don't unhook at a love's Just park with the trucks that free.
If we leave a Harvest Host early, we eat a late breakfast and skip lunch.
My opinion: too expensive.
Wow
Thats a little expensive for a gas station ( not being a campground)
Convenience always costs a lot more.
I think that price is very high. But... if you're stuck!
Did you get to eat at Smoakies Barbecue across the street? They have good food.
I don’t get this new phenomenon of fast food dining rooms being closed. I rarely eat lunch on the road because it makes me too sleepy.
They blame that they can't open them up due to not having enough workers. But at $15-$20 an hour for fast food workers I can see why they don't open them up.
When are ya coming to California? Looking forward to your west coast journey. But btw it’s raining cats and dogs here too.
YIKES $$$
Way too steep a price! Wow
Quick overnight … $60.00 yikes …. Too noisy for resort prices. But like you say, safe so that is good.
The Other Half & I could sleep right through the trains, planes & trucker-mobiles! As far as the RV Stop is concerned, I'd say $60 seems a bit steep & maybe $40 would be a fair price. It could be a factor in why the place was so desolate compared to a K*O*A type campground.
Never seen a rv park at a loves before
P.S. Our strategy on overnight stays is to pick a place to fill up closest to our destination with a fast food and get dinner to go. Then get to our camp site and set up for the evening without having to cook. Some times we get lucky to be able to walk to a breakfast place before eating breakfast, but frozen waffles and fruit are also good to go easy breakfast to have on hand.
Don't like loves, we was charged 93 times on our credit card, same time ,same day, still trying to get it off our card,since last November, love you all,
How well lit was the site for pulling in? Easy to see everything or do you absolutely need a carl runner
Crazy price for overnight.
Call it his DEN
So does any one know… do you have to book ahead of time? Because I would think you could book last minute 🤷🏼♀️
Thanks. Nope, it's too expensive.
First comment and 7th like 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love this! It's so great to hear from you 🤗
Negative, it’s always a trip to watch your shenanigans. Keep’em coming. #ThanksHanks
Should have left out all other stuff and bring the price down to around $20.00 to $30. It will make more sense. 😁😁😁
We have NEVER paid to stay at a truck stop. This place does not count!!
Better Free options
60 dollars a little expensive but better than trying to stay at a hotel and it's full hookups so let 'ur rip. We are Chick Filet people but Arby's works.
Best $20. I ever spent was on a sound machine to play white noise at night to sleep.
Hey ya'll ❤️❤️❤️
I think the $60 price tag comes as a result of the 'emergent need' factor. They know in a pinch, so many people would pay for that, amenities included or not :) love you both!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart❤ for normalizing pet hair on black t-shirts. I feel ok about myself now. My self esteem has been restored 👼
The convenience, abundant amenities and automation all make the Loves site look like good value. The Hanks always give an entertaining, yet informative, presentation. So many other vloggers eventually devolve into narcissistic, patronizing, ignorant hypocrites. Their on-scene delivery is friendly and welcoming; never arrogant. I have never regretted becoming a subscriber to their channel. Keep up the good work. Thanks Hanks.
Next you should do a video of living on BLM land.
Funny thing is I’m a trucker for 28 years so when I hear engine noise and train horns I sleep good. And sleep through it all night. I sleep better in my truck than I do at home.
Don’t have a camper but I’m addicted to watching y’all. Love y’all’s personalities. I swear if I ever see you guys in person y’all gonna think I’m crazy. 😂😂 because I’m going to act like I know you. Lol. I look at the truck stop I pass every morning to see if ”D” is there. Dam that sounds stalker-ish. Seriously tho, love the content. And would probably just leave note since I pass sooooo early heading to work. Can’t be late for the grind. Lol. You guys are awesome. Team HANKS. no favorites. Love you both.
