    Sharon should be a spokesperson for Jeep and for the Tab trailers. She is completely sold on them. Very interesting Nomad. Thanks Bob for this interview and tour.

    Bob, just had to tell you.. This particular vid has helped my mother (91 yrs) feel a lot better and less worried about me. phew! Thank-you. It is so hard to live the way I want when most everyone else thinks I'm nuts and will surely fail royally and become destitute, stranded, starving, cold, alone and God knows what else they can dream up to upset themselves and attempt to destroy my plans. Makes me want to go screaming into the wilderness.. oh wait, that's just what I plan anyhooo. LOL. Thanks again.

    • @warmweeniesdoxiesweaters2884
      @warmweeniesdoxiesweaters2884 7 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Oh yes. I have lived in more difficult circumstances (15 or 20 years ago)... literally in a forest wilderness. No heat or water in a modern sense. Shelter was a very old travel trailer wrapped in bubble wrap for the winter. I made radient heat with stones over candles and oil lamps. I hauled jugs of water on a tobbagan traipsing thru the woods on snow shoes. I had the best time of my life even at 18 below. Gettin' too old for that much primitive now. Am looking forward to a comfy C class that actually moves. Smile.

    • @185Diannah

      I agree as well. About a 100%, every person that Bob has interviewed, they're all happy and don't want to go back to their old lifestyle. These people are living with less in small spaces and the end results, THEY ARE HAPPY. So I have concluded it is something wrong in the way we are living in society. I'm not a Nomad yet but I hope to be one in the near future.

      stringbender57 actually I have a 2016 TAB Outback version and these are really not that well made. There is no storage in this, those cabinets above the sink are so small you can't actually put anything in them and same with the back ones. I can tell they didn't pre-drill any holes so there is quite a few cracks in the wood. I would think being made by the Amish they would know this. I really don't think they were made by Amish craftsmen. I don't recommend this camper. It also cost more than most other small trailers.

    I think I will start saving now. As I ponder it, I feel like I want this lifestyle for myself. I have a v6 ford ranger that I own. And an apartment that is cheap enough to allow me to put some away. I work at a convenience store. But when I work 2 jobs I actually do pretty good so this would be doable. I have come to realize that I don't need much in this world. But I am willing to pay good money for what I have. 15,000 thou isn't cheap, but isn't out of the relm of possibility. I would want a duel sport moterbike that could go with me and I already own most of the guitar equipment I need. So now its just about learning how to live off grid. What I need and where I want to go. Hope my cats are as into the idea as I am. Guess we'll see. Anyway, very inspiring vid. Thanx for doing it.

      CheapRVliving Very encouraging words! I live near Canada and weather is totally crazy here right now, as it usually is every winter! I hope to have the nerve to get out there during next fall and try finding a warmer place to stay and do a little landscape painting. After watching some of your videos showing how some women are doing so well in smaller travel vehicles, I'd first want to look around for something much smaller than my large Class C Winnebago. Thank you SO much for all those wonderful videos and for your encouraging words!

      Why do old people specify “flat screen tv” ? My mother does it too. It’s like saying “I have a flat-front refrigerator” it’s so weird.

    I owned the clam shell model T@B. I used it for 2 weeks and sold it. It wasn't right for me. Some people absolutely love theirs. It is truly a top quality product! I LOVE the Aldi radiant heating system. The woodwork was beautiful. No doubt this is the right tool for this lady. I'm 5'11" tall. I could not stand up fully nor lay down without my heals and head touching the walls unless I slept at an angle. The CS model has an outdoor kitchen. The wind kept blowing out my stove. 2 Cubic feet of refrigerator/freeze space is not enough for more than a day. I constantly ran out of fresh water and overflowed the grey water onto the shower floor. If you are boon docking, one 12 volt battery is not enough. Where do you keep your 4 or 5 jerry cans of water, clothes, cleaning supplies, toiletries, food, dishes, cookware, utensils, Ice chest, first aid kit, tools, sewer hose, blue boy sewer tank, power cord, extra propane tank, coffee maker, and generator? Then when time to move find room for the awning, ground mat, table, solar panel, and lawn chairs. The mirror in the bathroom, with my head against the ceiling was mounted below my chin with my head against the wall that it is mounted on. I couldn't back up without bending my knees, or sitting back on the toilet. The walls by the toilet were barely wider than my shoulders making the toilet mostly unusable. Was not a fit for me... Not even close! for 2K more for a year newer model I bought a 23' travel trailer.

    I don't remember seeing this before. This, I believe, is the first T@b I've seen with a front window. I like the bed setup, too. By the way, I spent much of my life in or near Amish country in Ohio. People here have an almost religious belief in the quality of Amish construction. That might help with my fears about RV quality.

    I never knew the anonymity of modern neighborhoods until the 80s. Not knowing your neighbors was unheard of. Living on Air Force bases meant COMMUNITY. Housing built in the 40s or 50s was more open. Part of the appeal of RVs is community. Getting out of the rig is also key to our happiness. Rant over. Thanks Bob.

      Me too! Very strong women. I love hearing everyone's story. So many varied backgrounds. I really love these little T@B trailers. I am seriously looking at the model with the outside kitchen. I camp out of my Prius and actually prefer cooking outdoors. They make a little kitchen tent that goes over the cooking area so you can get out of the weather and still not make the trailer stink of food. Nothing like catching fresh fish and cooking it within minutes of catching it.... except the smell inside any vehicle. So yeah I like to cook outside.
