You went to all the typical tourist traps. That’s not Vermont. We have the most beautiful state in the country and us locals would never go to those places.the long lines are tourist not locals.

You went to Stowe which is one of the most expensive ski tourist traps around .skiing is big money so you shouldn’t have been shocked at the sticker price. That’s why people take the lift instead of the gondola

We Vermonters pronounce Route 100 as “root” 100. Nobody but flatlanders call it “Route”

The AeonRV has the best set of features (for me) that I have ever seen on an RV. It has all the nice to haves I would want in a Transit van build, including proper seatbelted positions for additional passengers (a mandatory for me), while still being only 22' long. That's a foot shorter than an Ekko and six inches lower in height. It is the same length as a XL Transit van and only a few inches wider. But you get a way roomier interior, a full queen, a large pantry, a (relatively) roomy wet bath, easy roof access from inside, can sleep three adults well, and far, far more useful storage inside and out. Re: the definition of a "B+", I cannot agree with the no-slides criteria. I don't think that too many people would argue that Leisure Travel Vans are not "B+" (and, for some, they are the definitive example), but they have many models that have a slide-out. I think that it has to be more broadly defined as having no bunk-over cab and being built on a cutaway van chassis. Basically, almost every semi-integrated motorhome sold in Europe (most on Sprinter or Fiat Ducato chassis) would be a "B+" in North America.

You guys are great! I love these short trips with a goal. Have you been through the Redwoods yet? I've been through them 3 times now the last being a very bad decision to traverse them at night. Thought we'd get a motel inside the Redwoods, but none were to be had so we drove from 6pm until 9am the next day to hit a hotel. 🤦♂👍🤶🎄🎅✌🗽 P.S. Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby is the best, but the pretzels can get a bit soggy. If at the factory it must be fresh, and the pretzels hopefully remain crisp. Either way, LOVE Chubby Hubby!

Curious if the tow haul mode would’ve made a difference to the drive on the down grade and would’ve helped so you don’t have to ride the brakes. I’m assuming you have to be careful of the van’s height clearance because you have to be careful of trees on that Hwy 100. How long was the gondola ride….1/2 hr? That drone footage was great! Caravan would be fun! Have you been on the Million Dollar Highway in CO? Where did you guys wind up staying on this trip..please share tips.
@DVaccarelli1988Күн бұрын
The road that goes through the Smugglers' Notch isn't part of Route 100, it's part of Route 108. Also, at the end of the video, you entered Massachusetts via Route 112, which becomes Massachusetts Route 112 in Massachusetts, where you ended the video. The southern end of Route 100 is at the Massachusetts state line along with an overlap with Route 8, which continues in Massachusetts as Massachusetts Route 8.

You guys did a lot in one episode. I remember snowboarding at Stowe and going to the Christmas store. We are all about cider donuts and hot chocolate. Wow pricy lift tickets. Hopefully you got your moneys worth. Fun stuff. Loads of people go up to Vermont and New Hampshire for family time and skiing/boarding. Man fresh cider sounds great! 👍🏼 great job! Also love the country store.

Haven't yet done Vermont, but did drive to Hana with a fever (coral allergy?), a rental car and alone. Stayed two nights in a condo that hung over a black-rock beach, then drove back. So noisy I could not sleep. No maple syrup, ski slope, donuts. Definitely an edge-of-seat experience. Vicariously going along with you on your trip was more fun. ❤

Colonial history lesson: Route 100 was actually in NEW YORK STATE. The colonial governor of MA sold land to settlers. The land was part of NY. And when NY came around and said "Sorry, you were cheated. You've got to buy it AGAIN from us." the Vermonters actually called up their militia, ceceeded and told NY they could go to hell. It was many years before this was settled, part of the reason Vermont wasn't one of the 13 colonies to sign the Declaration of Independence. That's something you don't learn in grade school, and why we have a Second Amendment. The famous Battle of Bennington actually happened six miles inside NY!
