I can remember the TV repairman coming to our home in the 50’s to replace tubes in our black and white TV. We had 3 channels and my brothers and sister and I were not allowed to touch the TV except to change the channel for my Dad.
In the 60s when color TVs were new our neighbors got one. I remember they invited over some of us and we all sat on the floor watching Flipper. It was amazing.
Hey Rusty... I am your age..also the daughter of a plumber. Every house we lived in growing up had a switch for turning the hot water heater. When I got married in 1970 my husband and I bought a new house. After a few months I had my dad come put a switch on the hot water heater. Dropped our electric bill by 10.00 the next month. A lot in 1970. The thankless hot water heater does save space, are expensive to buy and install and don't really save much in the long run. Anyway, just my thoughts on it . You do you as always. I really enjoy your videos.
Back in the early 1980s we bought a CD at Frost Bank in San Antonio. The promotion was we got a 25" console T.V. for free.. Must have weighed 200 lbs. We watched it for like 15 years!😃
Great video. It's one thing to have a driving video in a town, city, or flat land and another to have one in such a scenic and beautiful landscape. Crystal clear skies and video.
The Boring Company was was my neighbor for one year, they built the concrete liners for the las Vegas tunnel they also worked and tested their new designs of Boring machines they worked 24-7 they where not quiet neighbors they tried to buy my house, but I turned them down, they moved to the desert after that.
I remember when we got color TV at our house in 1972 but us kids didn't get to watch it beyond the first time. It was my parents small TV that was bought because my dad wanted to buy something for his homemade sailboat and he bribed my mom so she could watch her football games in color.
Good morning Rusty. You know I’ve discovered one thing, that is, it doesn’t matter how fast you drive, hell you could be driving 20 mph over the speed limit and people will still ride your bumper. I’ve found that nobody wants anyone in front of them. It’s like watching leapfrog on the highway. And funny thing no one gets anywhere any faster. Have a great day!!
Recently towed my MyPod micro camper with a CRV-EX for over 1000 miles to SC from KY and back. Averaged over 25 MPG for trip. Then average price was $4.30. Late May trip. Price now $4.60. Spent over $250 just in gas. My set up was the best I could do for micro camping. Also took electric bike. It is expensive to camp these days even minimally. Good luck all, and budget your trips.
Rusty to your question why are people always on your bumper. When you finally pulled over..not only one..but two cars went around you. The reason they're on your bumper is because there is nothing more nerve-wracking than being stuck behind an elderly person driving slow..I know it drives me nuts.
I'm falling in love with Ruidoso, I'm living in the Arizona white mountains the weather here is very similar to where you are, and the elevation is near close to 6,750, I moved here in 2018 and even though there is snow in the winter, the sun comes out nearly every day and melts it quickly It's cold but not the kind of wet cold, so it doesn't feel really cold Thanks for the drives, and information on the area 👍🏻🤩😍
I am fortunate to camp at the campground in Flin Flon Manitoba which is less than 3 hours from where I live. The cost is $25 a night which converts to #19.85 to U.S. More affordable when you don't get full hook up! There is always a way to save money!
In 3-5 years, Hybrid & EV RV & Travel Trailers will become offered and begin to be adopted by those who are purchasing new or want to retrofit an older RV/Travel Trailer. Nothing's static, nothing changes, everything's in a state of Entropy in the Universe !
Back in the mid 60's my 90+ great grandmother lived in a house without a water heater. Once or twice a week she would drag a metal bath tub off the back porch into the kitchen and partially fill it with tap water using a stew pot. She would simultaneously be boiling several pans of water on her gas stove. Over time she had a "formula" for how many pots of hot and cold water to mix for a comfortable bath. For all practical purposes social services didnt exist back in those days. Not one time did I ever hear her whine, moan, or complain about having to do this. My how things have changed.
I have a 50" TV found it on the side of the road. When I want to see a national park I get out my dvd national park dvd. The experts are there no part of the park is closed. Don't deal with stacks of tourists , buffalo doesn't get in the way.
Glad to hear you say you would think about a walk in shower.I have a plastic adult safety chair that I sit on while Showering in my walk in shower . (Enough room to stand or sit). I have a tub in my second bathroom .. I never use it.
As I mentioned, we were leaving Capitan after 30 days. You turned left at school, we continued to begin trip to CO, 10 miles later mule deer popped out. Drilled her. Bumper impaled into tire. Back in Capitan assessing options BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR DRIVING VIDS!
Been watching your videos for 3 years and I know you do you but I suggest you put wheels under that tiny house because come October you will be missing Texas!
It doesn't have anything to do with the Amy's brand. It is because it is a food item and Amazon's policy is not to receive back any food items. I don't know if it has to do with expiration dates or for some other reason. The same thing happened to me with Tea. They shipped me the wrong flavor of Tea and credited me and told me not to send it back. And, I have had family members tell the same thing happed to them when they received the wrong food item that they ordered.
Not sure what the regulations are in Texas and New Mexico, but if someone bought an acre plot, or smaller, maybe they could rent out spots to RV's on that property and the property would pay for itself. Keep the price low enough they would come. If that plot is in a town with stores/facilities nearby like Capitan where they could walk to places, that plot could become a popular stay.
Funny story about "Soda Waters". I was in Las Vegas years ago, we were paying for our meal and my brother told the girl cashier he wanted a soda water to go. She looked at him funny, went into the kitchen and came back with a glass of baking soda and water. We had a good laugh, she was young and never heard Cokes called a soda water.
Rusty, my son has a tankless water heater in his home. He told me it is noisy when it turns on. How noisy I do not know but he claims they can hear it in their bedroom and the water heater is in the garage. My son lives in a large home. Might ask the plumber you are using about the noise level of the tankless water heater versus the regular tank water heater. I hope your new home works out the way you want.
When the video ends and it's a freeze frame, l can swear the name on that building to the right with red letters says RUSTY BALLS. l'm watching on a phone so could be wrong.
We called any kind of soft drink a "Coke"! As in "what kind of coke do ya want? My cousins from St Louis moved to my town and they called it a "soda"!! We thought a soda was a soft drink mixced with ice cream.
Hello Rusty. Always a pleasure listening to you. You mentioned tankless water heaters. I have no experience with them. A person I know had one and the experience he had was that it plugged up with Water deposits. Would suggest you have the water tested Keep up the good work
Find the bright side of life. A healthy temp drop in local Winter knocks the bug pests out of your daily life. That can be pretty nice. Less insecticide needed. It's interesting, not boring, and motivational. Where I live, you can always put on another layer (hoodie). But the same people (neighbors) frown on appropriate nakedness in high heat. :) Hope we can all find the humor in the moments, Amigos.
Hi Rusty. When I owned my ranch house years ago I really wanted a tankless water heater to help the environment and save money. My plumber told me that you could not do it with electricity that you had to have gas or propane to fire it up quickly and he would not install it with electric. I thought it could be done with it's on 220 breaker but he wasn't interested.

Love watching the country side, relaxing,,
The Boring Company was was my neighbor for one year, they built the concrete liners for the las Vegas tunnel they also worked and tested their new designs of Boring machines they worked 24-7 they where not quiet neighbors they tried to buy my house, but I turned them down, they moved to the desert after that.
Yay!! Let’s go shopping!!!
I look forward to the possible build and Rusty's destination for the winter.
I remember when we got color TV at our house in 1972 but us kids didn't get to watch it beyond the first time. It was my parents small TV that was bought because my dad wanted to buy something for his homemade sailboat and he bribed my mom so she could watch her football games in color.
My feelings on tankless water heaters. Gas/propane power heaters work well, but the electric ones are too slow.
thanks
Good morning Rusty. You know I’ve discovered one thing, that is, it doesn’t matter how fast you drive, hell you could be driving 20 mph over the speed limit and people will still ride your bumper. I’ve found that nobody wants anyone in front of them. It’s like watching leapfrog on the highway. And funny thing no one gets anywhere any faster. Have a great day!!
Rusty, you just laid out some impressive reasons to keep the winter home base.
Recently towed my MyPod micro camper with a CRV-EX for over 1000 miles to SC from KY and back. Averaged over 25 MPG for trip. Then average price was $4.30. Late May trip. Price now $4.60.

Thanks for the info. I have small Casita and a pickup truck. Get 16 mpg. I don’t know how those people in the huge rigs going to afford the fuel??
Rusty to your question why are people always on your bumper. When you finally pulled over..not only one..but two cars went around you. The reason they're on your bumper is because there is nothing more nerve-wracking than being stuck behind an elderly person driving slow..I know it drives me nuts.

I like Alpine AZ .Been there a lot of times.

I pull over when I get a bumper sticker . Stress bucket is what they are.
I predict your new home will cost around $75,000.00. The medium price of a home in Florida is $350,000.00. Its a steal.
Yup, the houses in Florida are inflated once again! Remember what happened in 2008 ?

Pet food too
@@yousogrouchy7793 Most stores won't resell returned edible items. Been told it's "to risky"!
I was at COSTCO the other day they had a TV that would cover the wall price was $9999.00
Amazon has 2.5 gl, 4gl, and 6gl water heaters

Can’t do that in capitan . I don’t think Rusty wants anyone living on his land.
Capitan has the small rv place there, but not just open property. Town means rules !

If you see this in time --- the company may allow you to set up an account. They may then bill you monthly and may then provide you free deliver.
thanks

It does... speed shop
I remember when if you had a color TV you were hot stuff.
Enjoyed the drive and chat Rusty!

Coming into view at about 13:20. That is what I would like for my "tiny home".

We have hard water in Capitan

Gasoline is SO CHEAP in the US, is less than half of what we pay in Europe.
The plumber normally brings the fixtures he is going to install to your house and you pay for it.
Plumber will mark it up pick it out your self. I know I was a plumber for years.
I find it interesting that you have a good sense of finances but you never mentioned the value of investing in I bonds to combat inflation.
I had a tankless water heater in a condo in San Diego and it worked fine but the plumber probably knows best.
Hi Rusty. When I owned my ranch house years ago I really wanted a tankless water heater to help the environment and save money.

Hey Rusty. The people behind you wonder why is this guy in front of me is focused on making a TH-cam video instead of driving the speed limit!!!!!!
Is a sodie the same as any soda pop like Coke or 7Up?
Sodie pop, soda water, pop, coke, etc. depending where you live...
Fox worth delivers .
good
I heard that the reason the gas prices were going up had to do with they want us to start buying the electric cars. Take care Rusty.
Biden's energy secretary Granholm said exactly that. Buy EV to "help" off set gasoline prices.
@@AnnMitt Idiots...IMHO!!!
Cool video talk Rusty lol
For your situation and an all electric house.. tankless does not look like a good deal..
Hot air balloons, chili hotter than Arizona, and the worst drivers there are
camp water heater.
