    Cosmo I retired 12 years ago and started a carpet cleaning business. My wife kept encouraging me to take her and out and see the world. I worked instead. She died three years ago now I wish I would have. you have inspired me to finally leave all that work behind me and finally do it. Thanks, great relaxing video. Good luck

    While people may think $17,500 may be a high price, you could easily spend half that on custom kitchen cabinets for your house(that probably aren't as well engineered as the trailer galley, and only serve to hold stuff). Now add in the costs of designing the Teardrop to be D.O.T compliant, marketing etc. and the price doesn't seem so bad. Of course for those that still think it is too high, there is always the used market or DIY route.
    On the Subaru's off road capabilities, there are 2" lift kits available that give you better ground clearance if someone really needed to go places a little more remote. Generally speaking, in stock form, they are more than capable of getting you anywhere you would want to tow a standard teardrop.

    • @CosmoWeems
      @CosmoWeems  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Very Much James. I am new to off road and willing to not try and get everywhere. The lift kit is a good tip in case I start feeling limited. However I go for the mtn bike when I think of getting into rough stuff :). Ya the trailer was an excellent investment for me that is returning priceless experiences with minimal overhead. For this trip, gas, tolls, and food and all expenses added up to $45 a day. That's cheaper than staying home for me! Regards =Cosmo

    • @CosmoWeems
      @CosmoWeems  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I could have reduced this a bit. Here are the numbers$89 Food includes departure food loaded in trailer, buying some groceries, $153 Fuel Departing and returning with full tank - just fuel spent on this trip$53 Highway tolls $84 Dining out $379 Total or $54 a dayI could have eliminated the dining out - but I was on vacation and getting lazy towards the end of the trip=Cosmo!

    Mashed avocado tasting better makes perfect logical sense since the more liquified a certain food is the more taste buds will receive flavor. It's the reason why melted cheese generally tastes better than when it's in a solid state.

    Hi Cosmo, loved your adventure in the Adirondacks mountains. You do the kind I like. I too am a Ham “WD5HRH”. Love to hill top, and work 6meters when it’s open. I think soon. I’m a retired Air Force, and a retired from Corporate America. Now I’m a sculpture of clay Manley fine figures and now am restarting water coloring. I’m off to the south west this September to Radio, paint, and squeeze some clay.
    So keep up having a good life, your a good example to all the old how much is living under self restriction.

I have so many camping gadgets I can’t wait to build or buy one to customize it! I like the idea of putting my kayak and bike on the roof. The other thing I love about the teardrop is the outdoor kitchen. I want to live outdoors, not in my camper, like you pointed out.

      I practiced lucid dreaming quite a bit - Hardly any success in my case I guess I have to try harder. Lots of videos in the topic. I got a lot out of the book. If you find Buddhism useful this might be a good read. This stuff is not for everyone. The inner search yields many benefits in my case.

Was surprised how far north it really is, looking at the map. Didn't know you had quit work, congratulations! Nothing like mid-week quiet on camping trips!

I would have never thought that they cost as much as they do. I fiddled around on their website designing my little camper and I was at 35k when I realized, I can buy a fixer upper house for the same price lol. I live in rural Texas now and the homes are fairly cheap around here. I really like the camper that guy in the desert had. That was impressive. When I moved from NY I moved to Louisiana for awhile and I got caught up in Hurricane Katrina and Rita and lost pretty much everything so I spent a year living like a vagabond but I was doing hotels. Hey Fema and my insurance paid for the hotels so why not enjoy yourself while you have to be miserable was the way I looked at it. Lol. Actually I couldn't find a empty hotel room anywhere in Louisiana for months so I just took off on the road and had myself a bit of fun. Lol. I wish now that I had bought a camper instead but those were impossible to find at the time to.

      @@CosmoWeems oh yeah Lake Luzerne has a lot of white water rafting companies in the area. The Hudson is absolutely beautiful up in the area. We used to spend our summers laying in the Hudson and in Lake George. Just watch for the tourist traps in the lake George area. Many of those places triple the price after memorial day. A ton of French Canadians spend their entire summers in the area and sadly they drop any amount of money and that seems to encourage the prices going so high up. But if you stay clear of Lake George and most towns on the east side of the thru-way (87) you should be OK. I know Corinth has some free camping spots that you might want to drive around and look for next time you are in the area. Beautiful village and beautiful people there. I hated moving away from NY.

    If you visit the Lake Champlain or Lake George area, I'd so love to see your camper in person. I've been watching your videos since you first bought the trailer. I'm hoping to get my partner enthusiastic about Vistabule. He'll be retiring in a couple years, so he contemplates his potential modes of travel. I'm hoping to steer him in this direction. Minnesota is a long ride from Vermont though.

    Like the little teardrop camper. Saw your visit to the factory. Do you think the maker might be willing to up grade the suspension and tires just a bit, to withstand the rigors of off road? I would hate to hurt the terrific little camper. Seems he a stickler for quality control. Your trips are an excellent camper presentation. You do some gentle off road stuff, absolutely beautiful trips, much appreciated.

    • @CosmoWeems
      @CosmoWeems  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      . I believe Vistabule offers a heavy duty package from added lift to heavy duty suspension Ya I am not rock hopping. The trailer seems pretty durable - the car is not built for the rough stuff. But it did get me where I needed to go (without repair bills ha ha ha). Check with Vistabule they spoke about a rig they set up with oversized tires extra lift and beefy suspension and full sized spare tire.

    That is the greatest thing I have heard in a while. The squirrel was bombing you with pine cones. That is one smart squirrel. The great thing about silence in nature ( no human sound) is it really puts you in perspective of where you fit in the scheme of things with mother nature and how tiny we really are. You talked about slowing down now that you don't work. That is why when you go on vacation you need at least two weeks when you work. 3 days to detox your mind off work then a weeks vacation and 3-4 days to be home to get your body back into gear for work.

    If your Subaru has it, check out the X Mode. It automatically maintains downhill speed on off-road descents. Also awesome videos! I’m building my own teardrop trailer and your channel has been a great inspiration!

    In figuring out your costs, you also got to figure out your meals. Ya know hotels do not give you three meals a day. Plus you have to count tips to. Thats what i do, I also eat very well, the steaks i buy to throw on the grill would cost about 100 bucks with a few happy drinks at a restaurant. Well i just am saying it is costly to eat out all the the time for the both of us. I bought a 16' Scamp travel trailer, new in 2014, Picked it up in Backus Mn. drove all the way there from Pa. Made a two week vacation out of it, first time ever towing anything, I learned . My tug is a rav 4 v6 with tow package. I paid what you paid for yours with the sales tax when i got back to Pa. Could have bought anything a lot larger, used, for half the price. But then again, people would not come to me and say can i see your camper. I will stay busy with all the parks in Pa. NY for the next few years. Like your vids. Carl

      Thanks Carl - We are of one mind. Ya I crunched in the food, drink, fuel etc for a year before I bought. Now its paying or itself. On top of all that I am totally board in a hotel room. Sheetrock and synthetic carpet are no match for trees and dirt under my feet. In my case (maybe are case) less is more. I have camped with friends who are Scampers, Casitas and big rigs. After 3 years I am still happy with my setup, expenses, fuel economy and especially the experiences! =Cosmo

      I prefer the camping experience, but to make everyone happy, we did the a very other day motel or hotel depending on cost of area and those places we wanted to camp at a particular location. I fully understand the benefit of camping and being in nature, but back when we went you could get a motel and free meal or two for the price of a camp ground in Canada at the time in remote places.

      Thanks Connie. I am using a Canon SX730 cost about $400. Has a super zoom (40 times) Its a fun camera but not up to professional quality. So far it has put up with my man handling and taking it to not so nice places (which is where I want ot photograph). =Cosmo

    I’m really enjoying your videos. I would love to own a teardrop and travel and camp. Unfortunately I’m a single older women so would never boondock even though we have some absolutely amazing places to camp on Vancouver Island in BC. I was a lot more adventurous in my younger days. So I am camping vicariously thru you : ). I converted a Dodge Caravan, so I can camp while on the road working. I’m a traveling sales women who loves the idea of camping and exploring ..thanks for the great videos and all the info you provide. Safe travels.

      Hi Judith. I meet lots of women traveling and camping alone. But one can start with a club like www.xscapers.com then you will be camping with other people and make lots-O-friends.and meet up with them etc. You have many options available. Life is short - you can do it! Keep me posted. =Cosmo

      C'mon, Judith, join us! I'm 69, and am not afraid of life. My tiny teardrop trailer gets me all over the place. Watch cheapRVliving channel to see us.

    i just found your channel and subscribed. I spent years backpacking the High Peaks area, and used to park my VW Vanagon at the North Fork Bouquet River spot were the Jeep was. I've bought a Tacoma and an ALiner trailer for my non-tent years. My biggest fear is going down a forest rd. and not being able to turn around. Keep up the good work!

    • @CosmoWeems
      @CosmoWeems  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Subi has 8.75" of ground clearance. The Tacoma has 9.4" of ground clearance. I think I could have gotten the Outback (or Tacama) in but the trailer follows a different line of approach. Once in there is room to turn around in (n my case). I have been in this site looking at the various wildernesses and there appears to be lots more for us to explore! = Cosmo www.dec.ny.gov/lands/67299.html

      It's a great trail from there into East Dix (which I saw from your link is now Grace Mtn.) I was just in VT at Chittenden Brook NF campground. Sites 10 or 11 are good for tag alongs. Where was the site you highlighted in Keene?

    Really enjoyed your video, you should pop over to Scotland and hire a camper van to do the NC500 tour route, beautiful scenery and excellent wild camping.

    Luv this video even if it’s long. You have a very relaxed way to describe the wonders of boondocking in nature. Your Vistabule looks very neat and perfect for these kind of adventures. I just bought an Alto which weighs maybe 500 lbs more and am looking so much forward to doing what you’re doing. Thankyou Cosmo.
