Yet the frame flex / broken frame issue seems most prevalent with Grand Designs. The truth is out there somewhere. Seems to be lots of poor quality videos on KZbin of many rigs being partially fixed at Grand Designs factory. I don't own one but will one day need to replace the one I have.

I like the campground. The rest of the place is what it is, an old tourist trap that has seen better days. Very little was unexpected, only the low quality of their hat shop, which was more like Spirit Halloween than a real hat shop.

Thanks for the ideas Happy Thanksgiving

When I see a six wheel trailer I cringe in disbelief...

The easiest way to fault find is to use a test light. A bright light indicates good current /voltage flow. A dull light indicates poor current. You can use the point of of your test light to pierce the wire insulation anywhere to check the current. You can also check your voltage at the same time by connecting your multi-meter to your test light and gives you the voltage while under load. Hope this helps. Happy Days.

Don’t you guys just love driving the I40,it’s really pretty bad,eastern At through NM. Knock your fillings loose.

Didn't get to visit all that on our stop in Los Vegas. Had to visit a tire shop just outside of town. Had a wild burro you would have to push and move to get to a bay.

Prayers & hugs. I can relate; I hit my head in a car accident & got a tbi 11 years ago. My biggest mistake was over doing it during my recovery. I was trying to “catch up” but I kept setting myself back by being to hard on myself instead of resting enough. Just wanted to offer some encouragement to be gentle with yourself; it can be hard to slow down. 😅 Take care 🙏🏻🥰

Love you guys and your videos. Still hate most of the soundtrack.

If you buy lithium then increase your solar by a third.. because you can only run a AGM down to between 50 to60% it takes more solar to charge a lithium from 20% in the same time..then the issue of charging in cold weather and the cost..I'll stick with my AGM batteries thanks till sold state come to market!!.❤️🇺🇲

I know this video is a year old, but I just watched it and would like to know what you mean by Line 1 and Line2

Where did you get your little dog seat?

Congrats to Chads daughter (beautiful and gorgeous smile. Best of Luck in her future endeavors!) and speedy recovery for Tara with LOTS of Prayers and can't wait to see you again. Never like seeing anyone in the hospital! Always love the Music. You two are so cute together!!!! Hope to see you soon on our travels!

Love Oatman, Went years ago. Came from Laughlin so did not go that winding road. It was 115 degress and the "coolest" place was the little caves the donkeys go in to cool down.

New Sub, enjoyed your video. What dash cam are you using?

If plug in and you have “poor” power coming in, isn’t that a park issue? not much you can do if that’s the case

Loved the video. Good to see you

OMG, my big brave 100lb 1/2 Newfoundland and 1/2 Queensland Heeler Jameson chases off coyotes on our property here in NW Montana but the second the fire alarm chirps, he curls up in to a violently shivering puppy on my lap. It rips my soul to see him so scared. Great video guys!

Dang Chad! You guys were within 11 minutes of my home when you stayed at the Desert Edge RV park! Would have been great to meet up with you and had a meet/greet. Congrats on your daughter's graduation! Hope Tara is recovering well. Best! Travel safely! Cliff Bailey in Phoenix..

In addition to what you showed us so thoughtfully, I remove all water soluble cleaners from my cabinets and store those inside the house. They could freeze and make a mess or at the least degrade. Thanks for your videos, and hope all goes well with Tara ‘s surgery.

I loved that show Longmire!

Go across the bridge and park there and walk back.

One travel weeks we do 1 nite,1 nite, 2 nite, repeat. By the 3rd day we are ready for a day off. Nice to see you back on the road.

Really like our autoformer. Have had it about 5 years and it’s hooked up like yours so I can use it or just bypass it. Great video

She is precious!

Boooooooo. About 5 of the 28 minutes was interesting. You're on a downhill affiliate / watch road go by slope. Hope you regain the energy and quality of ... days gone by ...

I did love that show . Longmire should have never went off. Chad good to see Tara up and going and congratulations on your daughter graduating. Yall in some beautiful country can't wait to see the next installment.

What a beautiful young woman your daughter is! The song you played during her graduation video brought tears to my eyes- it was just perfect!

God Bless America!!!!

What kind of dog is Daisy?

“We only travel with 50 gallons of water”, with the CCC of our single axle we do an overnight with 5 gallons of water.

We stayed in that RV park at dancing eagle casino back in October 2024 and full hookups was $20 and it was nice and clean

Love your videos! When are you guys going to get a Goose Box?

Welcome to the Springs. Enjoy USAFA if that's the fam camp you're staying at. The weather is great this week, but it's supposed to snow again next week. Hope to see you around town. Love your videos. LTCD

Thanks for the ride-along. Stopped at that BB a ffew months ago. They do a good job. When on I-40; we often stop at the Sky City Travel Center (at Sky City Casino about 7 miles west of your fuel stop) for fuel. They are on Open Roads. They have a good overnight RV park with great pricing (watch the billboards for discounted price and mention at check-in). Sky City Casino is a little larger and has the table games for Chad 😂.

Have you done a video showing how you added a plug so you could plug your power watchdog inside a compartment?

Hopefully you stopped at the Texan Steakhouse in Amarillo Texas? It is a great experience.

Enjoyed the video, as always. A bit of home seeing I40 coming in to Albuquerque and then I25 heading north to Santa Fe and Las Vegas NM. Know you are gone from there now but hope you also had a chance to see New Mexico Highlands University, established in 1893. Been over 30 years since I last visited there but I remember the beautiful structures and area.

PS I just started to watch Longmire after this episode and you showing the Sheriff office!

My husband, who has a cousin living in Bradenton, FL, also messes up words like Chad did. I cracked up right with you Tara. 😂 Yay for military discounts! We always ask. We're headed on an RV road trip again soon and most of our stays will be at Fam Camps. We prefer them when we can get them. Always a decent bargain.

Thanks for the info

Feel like its been forever since i watched 1 of. Your. Guys. Videos

How many times. Do. You guys pull up. In a camp site and. They subscribe to the you tube channel

we have stayed at that campground. Great folks! made wonderful breakfasts for us the next morning!! love the channel! Happy Thanksgiving! E/T

Ah I-40, time for new shocks. I think there are hot springs in Las Vegas NM. I liked Longmire.

Surprised the Volta won't automatcially step up voltage by using battery power. Our Victron MultuPlus-II will do this.

Also "famous" for filming the first Red Dawn in the 80's!

Back in 2022 we stopped at a Harvest Host in Grants NM and that was a big mistake. All night 4 wheeler festival. Before that stop we stayed near Winslow AZ at the “cheap” Take It Easy RV Park where the last site was near the I-40 on ramp and smelled like a sewer. It was a trip otherwise.

That's an odd route from Phoenix to Vegas😊

What you are seeing with the electrical issues can be the result of overloading on that phase of the service or it can indicate a bad neutral. When there is a fault in underground cable it will usually result in the other cables being affected eventually. The cables usually use an aluminum conductor which will degrade when exposed to moisture. The wire becomes a powder but will operate until there is an air gap created. A faulty neutral will cause high voltage on one phase and low voltage on the other when a load is applied. The device you plugged into your Watchdog is an auto transformer. It senses which of the conductors has a fault and compensates for the low or high voltage. Though I don't use the auto trans you have, and can't speak about it, it will probably compensate for the loss of a phase or neutral or any combination of. You must have one good phase though.
