      While not on your healthy-eating list, we enjoyed walking from that RV park to the Krispy Kreme Doughnuts -- hot and fresh :) The subway that goes under the river to get to NYC also was useful.

      I haven't RV'd there since I live about an hour away. 😂 FYI - there are lots of areas north and west of where you are that have nice parks that are a lot closer than the PA campground. Additionally, NJ Transit is really good in many parts of north Jersey. There are train lines that go all the way out to Hackettstown, NJ (NW Jersey) that can get you into the city easily. You can take a train from the Princeton area (Central Jersey) into the city in just an hour too (express train). And so on. Transit is almost 24/7 in the JC area. Jersey City is a high end area due to the proximity to NYC. The $170/night is actually really good for the area ($250/night is the average if you weren't already aware).
      Some terminology: NJ - we just say Jersey. Everyone knows what you mean in this area.
      Jersey City doesn't have "New" in the name, just Jersey (see prior sentence)
      When going to NYC from Jersey, you would say you are "going into the city" (we refer to Philadelphia as Philly)
      I hope you have fun!

      Yup. We've been there 3 times. We call it a towing Sphincter Pucker Factor of 10. We had one tow where literally we had to get out of the tow vehicle, stand in the road, and stop traffic or we were going to miss the turn onto Marin Blvd. and go into the Holland Tunnel. We had saved some champagne for a nice toast at dinner that night. We chugged it as soon as our wheel chocks were placed...

    Why would anyone EVER think there are ANY RV parks in NYC? We are soo impressed with how well yall do weaving around the tight streets, amazing job...i drove fire trucks for a few years but thats easier then towing...great job!! But I cant imagine staying in an RV in NYC, a hotel is scary let alone an RV... Its NOT safe anymore, i live in CT we used to go into NY a lot....not anymore.....Ruddy G had that place safe and fun...so sad to see how different it is.

    FYI, be careful of driving with your seat so close to the steering wheel. I'm short, but I try to keep my seat adjusted so that my arms are more straight to reach 10&2. The scary thing is that if the air bag goes off and you're that close, it can do severe damage to you. 😢

    You will not have any more concern about bridges if you buy the proper GPS. You should not go anywhere without a Trucker / RV GPS. It will direct you around low bridges and keep you off roads you should not be on with a 5th wheel.

    We decided to stay on base in New Jersey and took the train into New York. It was so easy to do and saved us the stress of driving and parking. We did drive one time to Liberty Park and took the Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty 🗽 and that drive was stressful just in a truck. People would walk right out in front of you on a green light, lots of construction, and it was not the best neighborhood until you got to Liberty Park. I’m happy we experienced it both ways train/truck but definitely could not drive our home down there. You are braver than us!

    After a valve stem blew out on the Cross Bronx Expressway and having to limp across the George Washington Bridge, I'll never bring our trailer through there again. I'm sure you probably won't either

    Been to Liberty Harbor RV. You were lucky it was so empty. The time I was there with Fantasy, we could pass the Grey Poupon all around the campground without once leaving coaches. 😂

    How does your Ram compare to the Ford you had?

    • @IreneIronTravels
      @IreneIronTravels  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Its similar in some ways... like 1ton, diesel engine... but its also quite different being a dually and the ford was a Tremor package. But the RAM dually really handles the 16k 5th wheel much better. We like the firmer seats of the RAM better.... But still miss the FORD!

    Great driving! NYC area always creates extreme stress when we are towing; we try to go around it if we have the time, but often we don't so we just grit our teeth and white knuckle it through! Thanks for highlighting the camp ground, we may have to make a visit. Wife wants to spend multiple days exploring the city and this might be a great way to do it for us.
    Hope that Canada is treating you well!

      Thanks! NYC has so much to offer , but is definitely intimidating for RVers. You guys will love the convenience of the campground for visiting, but it’s tight when it’s busy. If you go, let us know how you like it!
      We’re almost done with Canada and having a blast!

    We are just under 11’ & somehow got on a highway in Maryland and then saw a sign for 10’ and talk about stressful. You also can’t blink when you are driving & navigating. Excellent job on both, but that driving 🏆

    We went to Liberty Harbor with our old 43' toyhauler, truck, and suv. We managed to fit both vehicles in our spot. We went through the same process of considering TTs, HHs, and even hipcamp. Liberty Harbor was our pick as well.
    Traffic was much heavier than what you guys had and tucked, but we managed.
    We had a great time exploring NYC.
