Have you gotten a surge protector yet? U don’t want the park power to fry all of your electrical in ur trailer!!! Never get in a hurry to leave. Set up ur check list on ur phone and go by it religiously! Good luck and keep the videos coming!!
Tip for winter. If you have electric water heater leave it on if you have full hookups so your pipes don’t freeze and also get a heated hose. Tip 2 would be to fill portable water tank up and only use water from their and just refill. And leave cabinets open for cold cold temps. You DONT want a busted water line!!!
If you haven’t figured it out yet. When you are hooking up wdh after you lock hitch ball, use tongue jack to lift back of truck and it will make putting those torsion bars on a lot easier. Same goes for when you are disconnecting it. Good luck
Congratulations and WELCOME to RV life! I admire both of your sense of adventure and the fact that you get to travel for your jobs which allows you to RV full time. I have been RVing for a few years, but mostly weekend stuff. Looking to get out much more with a few cross country trips. Stay safe, travel well, and make the most of it.
Pro Tip from a frosty climate: Carry a cheapo lighter and use it on low flame heat up your key before stocking in the lock to thaw the lock. May take a few times of reheating depending on how cold it is. Good luck! You haven't had accidents or injuries, y'all are doing great! :-)
Little tip on hooking up the distribution bars. After the hitch is attached to the ball use your power jack to raise the rear end of your tow vehicle just enough to release pressure, then just set them on the brackets. Great job and love the videos.
My sister just bought a Grand Design 17MKE like yours and she loves it!! We are very excited for her and we had a blast picking out this rig! She has an Amazon business and will spend a lot of time in her new rig (not sure if it's going to be full time yet, but maybe). Just came across your video today and sent my sister a link! You guys are brave! We've never driven an RV in the snow before! That is some beautiful country that we hope to explore someday! We really enjoyed your video and look forward to following along on more of your adventures!
Ol’my been rving for 30 years learned a lot and so will you have fun. I would highly suggest checking out some other videos from other rv’ers about must have items. I camped this weekend around others just like you and glad to help and offer advice when asked.
Hey, just found you both. Started on your first episode. Absolute blast. We are looking for our first trailer now. I’ll make sure not to leave the hose out in the cold. Luv the fun you both have ...
Make shure you get a heated hose my girlfriend and I are also living in a similar camper full time soon. Used to have a big diesel pusher, way too much maintenance
Experienced RVers would not have traveled the area you did in the winter, especially with storms on the horizon. You will find that good or bad weather will be a strong influence on when and where you will travel. Snowy or worse, icy roads when towing a trailer is often an accident waiting to happen. Glad to see you made it out okay.
Looking forward to your vids. We are about to hit the road for a while too. Currently living on Cape Cod. We love winter camping. It’s best to winterize your plumbing when it gets below freezing for weeks at a time. Have containers of water on board and keep rv antifreez in the black and grey tanks toilet and sink traps. If you get a site that has power, heat with an electric oil filled radiator ( nice quiet warmth) Enjoy😀
Are you sure you want to travel to the west? WA and OR gas price is hovering at $4.60. CA is $5.5 to $6. By the way, you can use the power tongue jack to lift up so you can slide the anti sway bars in very easily.
Nice camper. Tip for hooking up your equalizer hitch so you never need to use that pry bar again. Hook up to the ball off your vehicle and engage ball hitch locking mechanism. Then power your electric jack downward until you lift the rear of your vehicle upward just a little, then your Equalizer hitch bars will swing onto the L brackets much easier without having to pry them on. Do the reverse process to take them off.
They did use the jack to lift the vehicle, they just needed to lift it a bit higher, but that’s because it looks as if their sway control brackets are too high, the spring bars need to be parallel to the frame, their setup will still work but I think it just needs to be adjusted a bit better.
I'm 24, got married at 18. Purchased a house at 20. Now we're getting divorced. I can't believe I'm really thinking of doing this. I've been looking at the cheapest RV Trailers. My truck is a 4x2 sadly I don't think I can travel around your areas. Liked, and subscribed!
Im 9 year's full time 2009 artic fox fifth wheel. Not a big deal, I'm just not sure when you open the fridge, how long before you close it? Might have been because you were shooting. I'm in and out in 5 seconds or Less. Just something that be aware of if you're fridge in summer isn't keeping up.
Have you guys encounter really steep hills and how did you guys go about that? My fiancé and I have a 2018 JGC and a 25ft travel trailer and I’m scared to death driving from southern Oregon to Northern California!

Just learned through channel "Our Way To Roam", that it is a good idea to carry extra lug nuts because you can lose some and not really know. Your advise on checking all the items is so important!!! Lots to check to keep traveling safe!
Hey great video. Do you know if you can still hire these? We had one booked prior to covid and now can't seem to find a hire place for car and trailer?
Hey guys! Just came across your channel and wanted to say hello! We are starting our full-time RV adventure in just a few days. This video is so fun to watch! 🙌 Girl, I love your energy!!
I am excited to watch your videos, and get some insight on being newbies to full time traveling in a travel trailer! My husband and I will be 27 this year and we have two young kids, we just purchased our travel trailer and we are putting our house up for sell after we button up our remodeling, so we can hit the road by the summer time! I am so excited!!! We are from East Tennessee so we are super close to the part of NC you were exploring ❤️ I just posted our first video today for our new TH-cam channel. Your energy is great and I hope I can comfortable enough match that! Happy travels 🥰
I was wondering what the weight of your trailer is and if your Jeep is pulling it ok? I have a Jeep Cherokee as well and was told not to pull travel trailers with it.
I would agree to not pull travel trailers with it just because of safety. I always recommend to pull 2,000 lbs less than the max just to be sure. Some people who aren’t car people or haven’t towed may not fully know how to do things safely. Also remember just because it can do it doesn’t mean it should. I tow with both f250 and f150 so we got a smaller camper
The Jeep my bf was towing with in this video was a V8 so it could tow up to 7,200lbs. We had no issues driving it all the way to the west coast. He now has a f150 hybrid so now we can tow up to 12,000lbs!
It's gonna be fun, you are starting young, enjoy all the adventure. Now some tips, water is important, that cartridge you have does F*** All, invest in a 3 stage water filter 5 micron sediment, 1 micron bacterial, lastly a carbon filter. Put screws in your bumper so it can be hooked on and off easily. Use Zero G hoses, I carry 4 - 25' hoses cause you never know the distance. Make sure you put pressure reducer at the source or you may ruin your plumbing. I use the steel gardena connecters to quickly and reliably put together any combination of things. enjoy.
They said they can tow like 7,500 lbs or some sort so I’m hoping with all of the stuff In the camper it’s 5,500 lbs if not it’s really not that safe because they aren’t really built for it like a truck is
We have the same trailer and looks like you are doing well! Nice to see younger folks getting out there making memories. We started our RV journey too close to our 60s. Better late than never? Subscribed 👍
@@CrosbyGraceTravels We really like it. I wish a few things were different but overall it’s been a good unit. For its size it’s a big trailer in heart and does a lot of things well. I hope to put out a few videos with ours soon. Enjoy yours and will be here watching your experiences.
Duck tape, never go without duck tape I used to work at a zoo and if we didn’t have what we needed to repair the hoses or whatever really we used duck tape.
We have 2 dogs both 100 lbs and in a small rv full time both working full time as well. We live at one campground from April- November and then just wing it the rest of the months since it snows where I live it can be hard finding camp sites. Also remember some people think if you can’t pay cash for a camper than don’t do it but I think the only way that is necessary is if you want to be debt free but camping will never be debt free so if getting a loan gets you into a camper than do it!
I’ve been considering this for a few years. I work full time so I would have to stay local and go to work. Luckily I am surrounded by BLM land so I could do it for free. Just keep moving frequently. I’m nervous to try it because I still have to work. I would hate for the trailer to get robbed or stolen.
My bf had a Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 before he bought this trailer. It can tow up to 7,200lbs and worked like a dream all the way to the west coast. He now has a hybrid f150 so if we get a new rig in the future it'll be more than enough to tow whatever we decide to get.

Fellow rv person here. Stay out of snow if your new to this. My advice
Thank you! And yes, we don't plan to go anywhere snowy after this 😬

First time Im watching your channel
Camper is a great size! Congrats guys, looking forward to the adventure!
I love the size! It's just right for two people. Thanks for being here!
hello what is ur travel trailer name and what car do you guys use to tow it
Great video as you guys set off for adventure. Two words...wheel chocks!
I live there I don't need to see anymore of it. Hate the cold and I hate NC 🤣
I like your RV/camper what is the name of your RV?
🔥🙌🏾
What car are you towing with? Your trailer weighs a lot. How can that little SUV pull it! I have 4 runner and it can only pull up to 5000 lb.
My bf has a v8 Jeep Grand Cherokee so it can tow up to 7,200lbs!
I love your hair!
Aw thank you!
“It took 20 minutes of breathing on it to thaw it out” I am DYING laughing!😂
I WISH I was exaggerating hahaha 🙈 It was quite an experience
going to Lowes, maybe buy some boots there?

I’m nervous to try it because I still have to work. I would hate for the trailer to get robbed or stolen.
You can get lock features and a tracker for your camper. My friend has a ringer camera app for hers
@@natbat23 that’s awesome. Thank you
Pro-tip, take turns talking. When you talk over each other it’s hard to understand either one of you. 😉
Oh good to know! Thank you!
Y’all are cute.
How is the jeep towing the camper ?
It's a V8 model so it can tow it easily!
@@CrosbyGraceTravels I have the same Jeep with the HEMI was wondering how it would do .
Thanks
Is that PB on your oatmeal? You have a subscriber!
YESSS!!!!

Words of advice from a mechanic get yourself a different truck
What make/model truck would you recommend?
@@paulzeigler1075 A Toyota truck or f150
My bf had a Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 before he bought this trailer. It can tow up to 7,200lbs and worked like a dream all the way to the west coast. He now has a hybrid f150 so if we get a new rig in the future it'll be more than enough to tow whatever we decide to get.
@@CrosbyGraceTravels Dont get a jeep. They are in top 5 bad suvs. Not like they use to make them. F150 is great
First week of RVing but your at a cabin- lol
