I retire in 5 years I’ll be 55. My plan is to travel the United States and see as much as I can in an RV.
I really enjoy your channel. 👍
Same goal also. 12 years until I’m 55.
Robert your living a great life. God bless you and your family.
You really are pretty skilled, if you can back your trailer into that tight space!
@10:00 “My neighbor thinks everybody likes his music for some reason” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks so much, Robert! The best travels in America on TH-cam!
Hi Robert thanks for another enjoyable video. God bless you and your family.
I'm sorry but.. your Parking situation is just blowing my mind! LOL. RESPECT Dude!
I just saw the section with the stickers. The pelican one is from us. We are honored that we made it on Mini Tini. Very cool. 😎🌴👍
watching your channel is not just fun & travel. it's also knowledge & getting recommendation from you on these products that are needed for 21 at century camping. safe travels robt.
Hello from another Miami resident. Cut that clamp off with some cutting pliers and replace with regular hose clamp that you tighten with a screwdriver. Makes roadside repairs a lot easier. Try to get a long zip tie and secure the hose up so it is not hanging so low. I do not know why manufacturers leave these drain hanging so low where they can be impacted by road debris. I broke mine the second time out on the road.
Yay! We are on the Wall of Fame! Thanks Robert.
Lou & Angie 💚💜
All meticulously reviewed!!!!!!. Have a wonderful and SAFE travel. It is very excited to see this trip entirely. Love , Peace & Freedom. MOM❤️🌎🇺🇸💯
Just finished watching all 40 episodes! It took me about 2 months since I watch them during my dinner time! In my opinion, it is too bad that your visit to Southern California (especially Anaheim and Orange County) wasn't the best experience. Thanks Robert!
Cuidado for Cubans means practically anything. Lol. I love it.
Thanks for the shout out Robert great video loved watching you getting Mini Tini ready for the long trip. I have been working on the Roadtrek getting ready for the winter camping season in Florida.
Robert I finished washing the 40 episodes in Prime Video. Your show is genius. I like it more when you got to the West and then drove back. I thought it was more entertaining. Your show, traveling around the country, was very relaxing and inspiring. Thank you.
*It took me 3 or 4 nice weeks to do all 40 episodes here and there. I can’t remember exactly. It was pleasant when you got to the mountains.
I suggest you add a 90* angle to the fresh water drain where it exits trailer, run a length of hose to side of trailer, install drain valve. This way you do not need to crawl under trailer. Great video Robert on basic maintenance and addition of new antena.
Sounds like a good idea... thank you
Hey Robert if you use soapy water, then apply the sicker over the soapy area, then use a squeegee to smooth out, you can remove all the bubbles very easily!
Thanks Robert, I think you need to buy a brass drain valve and use a stainless hose clamp. I would also consider adding a elbow to bring the drain to the edge of the trailer.
Thanks Robert! Really appreciate seeing all the behind the scenes of what it takes to keep your rig going. Like the footage from the new GoPro on the trailer, and awesome drone footage at the end, too!!
Great video - we are excited to see your travels north!! Loved all the stickers, especially Bikes, Boats & Bivwacs, Lucky Dawg & North High Brewing!
It's good to see Robert's adventures. Easy watching....
This is where the next door neighbor climbs a 10 foot ladder, looks over the wall and keeps asking "What 'ya doin' neighbor?"
I don’t know how you do it, but you can put up a video about working on your RV and it’s 100% entertaining. I enjoyed hearing the back stories of your stickers.
Robert, I am not sure what it is, but I sure do enjoy watching your videos. They’re true to life that offer a positive outlook on the RV travels.
Dang that is a close fit between the house and fence!
Gooooood morning Robert! Thank you for the new video. I hope that you have a great day. We continue to keep you in our prayers. Have a great day! Fly pelican, fly! 😎🌴👍
Enjoy your site no matter the subject or project you find to present. Thanks and good luck with all.
New subscriber. Watching your 2019 summer adventure on prime as i type. After im done watching this awesome road trip, I'm going to check out your new content. Love love love this channel already!! Your living the dream my friend.
Awesome video thanks for sharing, that drain looks awful low to the ground. Can you shorten it? Push it back up into the belly of the trailer? It looks like it is just hanging there waiting to get ripped off. Your Winnie still looks real nice after these years, that is awesome.
I like these episodes where you prep de-prep trailer. Its how I learn.
Hahahah! "Neighbor thinks everybody likes his music". That's 100% Miami. Lol I've moved because of similar situations. No consideration.
💕😁Enjoy your vlogs... Have an awesome time traveling in your RV!
Thanks for the shout out, Robert! Glad to see our old sticker hanging in there. 😁 Shoot us a note next time you’re headed out this way. We’d love to show you around. Safe travels and happy camping! - Tom & Stacie
Definitely. I still have so much to see in Texas.
Thanks for the sticker shout out. I appreciate the support. Look for your sticker shout out next week on the new KZ 180 TH!
Thanks for sharing Robert
Next time you are in Northern Michigan go to Leggs Inn a must... Also in Indianriver stop at the Cross a must..
Great to hear the story about the stickers. Thanks for sharing!! :)
Hi Robert, another fun video to enjoy and learning at the same time! Have a wonderful day, love your channel!
have missed your trips and i love the music
Thats such a nice Channel , please keep it up Robert !!! God Bless you and your family !!!!
There's a sanitizer that brewers and winemakers use. I wonder if it would work and not be toxic.
Love your videos.
I'm still looking for that ideal Tiffin Tofino.
Once they perfect it, I am going to drive it all over.
Hi Robert. Just started watching your videos from Toronto, great stuff - keep em coming.
Fantastic video my friend ! Definitely classic Morales style !
What a great Park
I have lots of extra shower wall sections with the surface like that of your camper, like 1/16th thick. Seems a good use would be to cut 24" x 24" sections to place stickers onto and both sides are usable. The shower wall covering was also very cheap and very light weight. Thinking we can take just one small section along on trips till completely covered and that way we will always have the collection of stickers.
The old TV antenna on the right if you no longer use it simply remove the pivot the folding arms and antenna attached to leaving the base in place. Then you can fasten a short rack over the area to add more solar or whatever more you would like to add.
Thank you Robert for all your traveling shows. May Jesus always Bless You & Your family! We love you.
14:01 Foothills ❤
lol . what came first? the RV, or the house and the next door wall? lol youmade it !
Robert love your song Riding in my RV!🙌😘
I remember all those chemicals lol
So what exactly happened at the very beginning?
I hit the awning... luckily I was able to snap it back in
Best opening ever.
One of the things I like about Robert’s videos is that he runs into the same type of things working on his RV that all of us do and he’s confident enough to share the mistakes he makes. Another thing - he doesn’t mind a sink full of dishes. I think most of the viewers here like watching a regular guy instead of the many know-it-all’s making RV videos.
One other thing - Robert understands how to use voiceovers instead of being a constant talking head. I’m not a fan of seeing someone’s face for 20 minutes trying to talk over engine noise or high wind. Thanks for being a professional and enjoying your experience.
Aren't you afraid that the first high spot will strip that valve off???
Thats what most likely wrecked the first one. I think I'd shorten the hose put in an elbow and lead it out to the side. Gain clearance and one does not need to crawl under to drain the tank.
That's what I was thinking also, that valve will be ripped right off of there
I love so much your travel vlog. Robert, you are the best.
I enjoy your videos. Looking forward to watching your summer adventures!! :)
Larry and penny is close to me. Pretty good trails. Just dont get stuck in the park after closing lol
USB (regular, not C) only has enough voltage for 3m run.
Well if you go to US64 and (or) US264 would be Amazing I Been there a bunch of times
Hi Robert, My name is David and live in claremont florida for over a year and can you believe the house came with RV parking on the side with 30 amp electrical plugin and boy my wife and i would like a RV like yours.We going to buy a Palisade Hyundai SUV to pull the RV, I'm a fan of your video keep up the great work.
I heard that WD-40 works on joints as well... at least among old folks back in Puerto Rico. LOL. Safe travels!
Awww You probably wouldnt want me as a neighbor. I would be constantly hanging around asking you what you are doing and why. lol
Srly this video is great and very educational. I didnt know you had to do all that in preparation.
The trail or is so low to the ground you can rip that off easy a good beach trailer though
What did you hit in the beginning
One of life's lessons in humility....looked like he got a new awning....
@@IndianapolisGerry ouch $$$
I hit the awning... luckily I was able to snap it back in
Me: Hmm I don't think I could fit a travel trailer on my property.
Traveling Robert: Hold my beer.
I thought we were on our way to Kansas
Hello Traveling Robert! I'm looking forward to your long trip home from Seattle to Miami.
Beginning of this video was funny
I like you fix yourself antenna
Very good video Robert! Not sure if your wife would like me saying this, but am looking forward to your next 3 month journey, maybe the north east and eastern Canada.
That water valve is to low, you’re going to snag it on something. Cut some of the tubing and get a stainless steel hose clamp on it!
Looks like a lot of work just to go cruising.
3 month long trip required planning.
@@TravelingRobert Can't wait to see the South Dakota episode.
That drain really hangs awfully low. I would shorted up that drain pipe.
Good,job 👍
A lot of parks closing beaches due to gators and high maintance costs.
Hey Robert, am I missing something? Like the rest of your trip!! You left me in Nebraska!! LOL!! Where do I go next??
Great video! Safe travels!
I see from your drone footage L&P park still allows RV storage along the fence across the septic field? I have a feeling in 2-3 yrs I'm going to buy a used RV and store there....setup when I'm down in South Florida. Love that area ( less traffic, short drive to keys, Miami Brewing) and if you have to go into Miami, not too far. Like $80/ month storage fee ( cheap )
What camera do you have mounted on your camper with the view behind your truck while driving? Also, how is it mounted for such smooth recording?
It is a GoPro Hero 7. It has great stabilization.
ΥΠΕΡΟΧΟΣ !!!!!!!!!!!!
ΑΣΤΕΡΗ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats on 100k subs
Thank you!
Open faucets water will drain much faster.
might be covered elsewhere, but curoius about if you found a powered solution for the gopro.... my gopro 6 and 7 both seem to crash/overheat long before I fill a memory card on powered connection on my bike.
I spoke to the GoPro rep at VidCon and he recommended an Anker power bank and I guess those have the cleanest power because the GoPro crashes much less often when connected to it.
2:10 how come you dont have "fabuloso" there Robert.. lol
Do you grease the wall before you back the trailer into your driveway? Damn, that’s tight.
Robert, the opening scene where your song starts the first patch that appears where is that or what? Every time I watch I’m puzzled.
Oh is that the one under the Eiffel Tower?
Traveling Robert I’ll watch the episode and finally be at ease. I enjoy watching your videos, I apologize for not being a patron. Congratulations to you and Your better half on 100,000 viewers, and Minitini
Very good handyman skills, of course most do-it-yourselfers risk doing it wrong.. ...Good rundown of water tank sanitizing which is probably necessary yearly ...That is undoubtably a county Park and maybe it is closed because someone got attacked by an alligator (it happens). ...Great drone shots ...what happened with the tight squeeze parking noise by house at beginning?
I hit the awning... luckily I was able to snap it back in
Hi Traveling Robert,I love your videos. I too have a Colorado and was wondering where you got your mirrors for your truck.
Amazon. I believe they are on my list
good time Mr Robert nice
Love the grey fly pelican t-shirt do you have these in your store yet
That little plug hanging down there that you had to fix seems like it could break so easily...all the time...that would make me not want to buy that particular model...or is it on all of them?
It is like that in most of them. I've only had to replace it once, just because the plastic disintegrated in the South Florida heat.
@@TravelingRobert wow...that's rather shocking...good to know...i would have thought with all that traveling a bump somewhere along the way would have affected it more...thanks :)...btw...as I read your reply I heard your voice in my head lol
Wheel bearings?
How has your truck done with all the hauling? The reason I'm asking is I own a Colorado and was thinking of getting a small camper. Any insight would be great!
👍
Great video sir !
w40 is a Solvent , not lubricant, you need a use somthing spray lube
Where can i get one of thosee free in my rv stickers?
travelingrobert.com/stickers
Me voy contigo de copiloto , yo no me canso de manejar , son 14 horas de trabajo diario .🤕🤕🤕😧😧
I see why you travel so much. You have no room to breathe between you and the neighbors.
If yo were to get another RV, which would it be?
