Thanks for the compliment! We talk about one day when we get older and it’s tough to get into the bed of a truck camper we’d consider going to a class-c. What don’t you like about your class c?
Thank you for the suggestion. I need more Benadryl for sure. I used it all for my pollen and tree allergies and should definitely get more. Just got bit by a spider this week and wished I had some Benadryl for that. Thank you for watching and commenting🤘
Oh man I feel your pain!!, I have hit my head good on the slide out a number of times. I now use pool noodles on those sharp edges. One thing you could do with the LP, plumb in a "T" and have a quick connect in place for the BBQ. Our 2004 Lance 1161 has one in place behind where the passenger side back wheel of the truck meets the camper, just where the drop off is.
Hitting your head on the slide is the worst. A pool noodle would be a great idea. As far as the LP quick connect, I have the same one you’re referring to. My struggle is that the quick connect has a pressure regulator before it and then my grill also has a pressure regulator on it so there isn’t enough flow. Do you have that same problem?
My grill does not have a regulator on it. If your grill has the regulator separate from the temp setting knob, then you could remove the regulator. I have one other grill, that the regulator and settings knob are all part of the same component, making it so that the grill cannot be modified. The one I use on my camper is an Aussie grill that mounts to a swing away bracket on the back bumper of the camper. @@thecumminscamper
@@denniskwasnycia1950 my grill is the same as the one you’re describing where your temp regulation is through the pressure regulator. Would it be safe to add a ball valve to a propane line and use that as my way to regulate the temp of my grill while then being able to utilize the quick connect on the Lance?
What brand of BBQ do you have? there may be a conversion kit . That said, a ball valve may be possible, but personally, I think it's time to get another grill that does not have the valve and regulator together. When I attempted to change my first one, "with green bottles" I found that the regulator/valve assembly bolted right up to the burner in such a way, that it really was not doable. @@thecumminscamper
Loved the video crazy I have lived & travel around FL for 25 years & only seen 1 small gator LOL, I have been down Alligator Alley 50 times at least never seen one stay safe enjoy FL
That’s crazy that you’ve only seen 1 gator in your time! We have seen so many since we’ve been here. Kayaking at any of the local springs while looking for manatees we’ve seen gators. They want nothing to do with us. They just wanna soak up the sun and be left alone in my experience. I’ll continue to keep my distance
@@OverlandCitrus take a trip to Big Cypress and you’ll see plenty! We didn’t see any on alligator alley but i think that’s because they’re spending their time in Big Cypress
Awesome place! Do you have many issues with your slide? We're researching rigs and I'm torn about the slides, I love the space it offers but it's something else to break down......
We haven't had any issues with our slide but Ive heard the older slide units from Happijack are better than the newer slide brands. Not sure how much truth there is there, just what I heard from some other truck camper owners over the years. Personally, I wouldn't get a slide in my dream unit. Less weight, less to break, easier to be comfortable when camping "stealth" than dealing with a slide out. I will say if you get a unit with a slide, try and choose one that will allow you easy access to your bathroom and fridge without putting the slide out. What a pain it would be to have to deploy your slide just to take a quick bathroom break on the road! Thanks for the comment and for watching
I agree Ben! Benadryl would have been a better choice than advil. I need to get some more as we’re currently all out. Thanks for the suggestion and concern also a big thanks for watching the video and taking the time to comment!
Thanks Ron! I’m glad to have my little Honda around. Been using it a bunch this weekend since it’s been rainy here in FL the last two days. Thanks for watching the new video🤘
@@thecumminscamper Poor tootsie! If I was me, I might reduce inflammation for the next few days by eliminating the usual diet suspects: * dairy * grains * nightshade family -- tomato, potato, peppers, eggplant * foods (and simulated food-like substances) with petroleum-based fertilizer and pesticide. . For decades, I was told I struggled with 'allergies'. Just this past decade, I finally learned about alternatives to prescriptions... ... and most of those involved changing my diet from typical American restaurant food to fresh local seasonal organic.
@@largemarge1603 dairy is definitely my biggest food allergy. I can handle it in moderation but long gone are the days of drinking delicious whole milk in large quantities. Glad you were able to eliminate the foods in your diet causing you problems. It’s a lengthy process to figure out stuff out
Yes, they’re from Cross Plus. They’re pretty sweet. They slip over the drivers foot pegs. They’ve only fallen off once when Marisa was getting on the bike and accidentally kicked it.
@@pamelawaterman3960 Marisa also fits under the slide without knocking her head. It’s never a fun feeling hitting that slide. Maybe one day I’ll keep a pool noodle around to cover that edge from my head
That's why I can't do Florida, the humidity & the bugs , yah we'll throw in the dislike of gators . The freedoms & politics are way better than commifornia !!!!! I thought your generator was a 2 kw . It must be a 4 kw if your running a/c & other stuff .
You’re correct that it’s a 2kw generator. Our AC is a small Coleman Machine 8 cub that I bought because I knew it would work with a small generator or a regular extension cord to someone’s house. I could use a soft start for the AC to help with the surge of the compressor. The humidity has been ever changing. One day it’s 38% the next day it’s 100%.

You got a perfect set up I love to get rid of my class C RV
Thanks for the compliment! We talk about one day when we get older and it’s tough to get into the bed of a truck camper we’d consider going to a class-c. What don’t you like about your class c?
Great video! We really dig when you walk us through your setup and al the gear you have, definitely a good setup!
Thanks y’all!!!
Also, for a reaction to the ant's you can use Benadryl which is an over-the-counter antihistamine. Should keep some with you.
Thank you for the suggestion. I need more Benadryl for sure. I used it all for my pollen and tree allergies and should definitely get more. Just got bit by a spider this week and wished I had some Benadryl for that. Thank you for watching and commenting🤘
Big Cypress is awesome. I went to a david Allen COE concert there in the 90s
That’s super cool! That’s a long drive off the paved roads to have a concert set up. Pretty awesome. Thanks for watching the video and for commenting👍
U guys should get a table cloth for ur picnic table. Ive seen countless stinky pop pipes, put on them over the yrs !!!
That’s a good idea!!!

I would suggest using benadryl for your fire ants bite. You seem to be having an allergic reaction to the bite.

With your Benadryl, grab a tube of hydrocortisone.

@@sheepdogtruckcamper520 we got more dirt biking and swamp puppies next week!
Gaters normally don't mess with adults, they will go after small kids and dogs..
I agree. They’re not looking to work hard for their meal. The small dogs are easy prey
don't try temping the gator's in Louisiana LOL
I don’t want to tempt any gators anywhere! Gonna keep a safe distance between me and the prehistoric beasts🐊
when do you crank up the Limp Bizkit
All the time!!!
Fire ants are NO JOKE!
The bites are extreme! Way worse than a mosquito bite
