  • Sugar Beet Harvest jobs through The Unbeetable Experience (‪@ExpressProsGFND‬ ) come with an incredible perk: 4 hours of “Stay Pay”! So what does that mean? You get paid to do nothing! But all the money we earned went straight back into the truck. So much for trying to make money on the road in an RV. 🤦🏼‍♂️ 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Hey there! We're Joe + Kalyn!
    As online entrepreneurs, we thought, "why not work from home... on the road"? So in 2019, we bought and renovated a 2005 Jayco Designer Fifth Wheel, which took us to every state in the lower 48. But the economy hit our business especially hard after the 'vid, spurring us to pivot in new directions and try different strategies, including various work camping jobs!
    Follow our journey as we build back our bank accounts in order to fund the biggest RV trip of our lifetime-Alaska.

    If you are going to work on your own truck, I would highly suggest that you buy a Chilton's repair manual. There are also digital versions of technical manuals for your specific truck too. Some shops offer free diagnostics and will give you a printout for the specific problem from the professional technical manuals that they use as today's vehicles are highly complex and the days of the shadetree mechanic are long gone.

    You guys should get your TWIC cards and do Refinery turnarounds…….12 hour days , 7 days a week for 40-60 days at a time. You can make 30-40 an hour plus OT an double time. Work a a fire attendant or hole watch.

    • @OpenRoading

      Had never heard of these until you mentioned. I think that wouldn't work for our specific situation because we need something where we can split our time between our own work (video editing, writing etc) and the job. We actually found a pretty sweet gig that lets us do exactly that! More to come. -J

    For the Ford truck it might be egr valve, you can clean it with brake cleaner or get a new egr valve. Diesel trucks are known with that problem, all the sutt builds up in there.

    • @OpenRoading
      @OpenRoading  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I bet the truck is overdue for new spark plugs. You should change those and the wires for a quick tune up!

      As to the spark plugs ours is a diesel so we have glow plugs instead - I don't know if that changes the math on maintenance for them or not. I have had some people suggest I may want to look into getting the injectors looked at. 😳 -J

    • @lyfandeth
      @lyfandeth 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The math for glow plugs is different, since they are only in use for a short time to start the engine. Unlike spark plugs, which are in use every minute an engine is running.
      Since you have to pull the injectors and take them to a shop, which may work on them in a day or two, sometimes it is much easier to order a new set of injectors at a discount. Install them, then you are not tied up waiting for the shop. You put the old ones away to either use as spares, or so you can swap out agsin, just as easily next time.

    • @OpenRoading
      @OpenRoading  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@lyfandeth I'm thinking after this experience if I do anything with injectors I'm either taking it to a shop, or teaming up with someone who knows what they are doing. I want to continue to learn this stuff, but I also need to know my limits when I'm working on my own. 😂-J

    You don't have rain gear for your motorcycle? There is some nice stuff out there that's even yellow so that you're safer on the road.
    And I don't know about america, but when I was in Asia I had a motorcycle cover to keep it dry, and not have the finish damaged by the uv, because it was either rainy or really sunny.
    Do you have saddlebags? Makes things a bit easier.

    • @OpenRoading
      @OpenRoading  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I've got some rain gear - just no pants. For the moment I try to avoid riding if there is going to be rain.
      I do have a motorcycle cover - I've damaged the plastic quite a bit on my own with a couple laydowns 😂 No sun required.
      No saddlebags yet. One of the many things I plan on getting eventually when the budget allows. -J
