ARE YOU KIDDING?? // Did we really go to IKEA?? // Casino camping // RV Life // RV Travel Days

On the last leg of our 2800-mile journey, we dodged mud holes, detoured around closed bridges and avoided planes landing on/near the Interstate. Finally made it to Alabama to see our daughter and prepare for the next journey...in a very different style. Adding to our RV family will be our next set of adventures.
The Journey is the Destination so come along to share in our discovery of What's Next.

Hey Jeanne & Alex, it is a neighborhood but with no HOA so it's ok for us to park there. Her driveway is large enough that we can fit both...but it's tight! There's a few videos that show us getting in but basically it's a 3 point turn with backing down the long street. We time our arrival for mid-day so there's less traffic. Being on a cul de sac does help. Thanks for the comments.

[@mrsbigtruckbigtravels726]

Hi J&A! We play musical vehicles everytime we arrive at our daughters house. After we back downhill about a quarter mile into the cul-de-sac, the driveway gets cleared out, David backs Orion in over the trench of a street gutter, around the mailbox and then avoiding the sidewalk curbing and pavers. We unhook and then I back Voyager next to Orion so the truck bed sits right under the passenger side rear slide. Sometimes we leave the Smart on the truck and other times we will take it off. Then the two cars get parked in the driveway. I'm trying to talk David into getting the drone out to film this choreography. 🤪 Thanks for the comment and your time watching the video!

[@MacGyver2154]

With a tractor/ 5th wheel combination like this what do you look for in a rv campground. 80 ft long pull through with high clearance and large turning radius. I am thinking about making a small TV campground and would like some input. It would be just a few miles south of Memphis, Tn. Where you just traveled through. Thanks

[@mrsbigtruckbigtravels726]

Thanks for the comment Scott! It all depends on the layout of the site and campground. If we unhook we really need about 90' for space between the truck/trailer plus the Smart Car. Unless we can park side by side. We actually prefer back-in sites as they typically have more room with our overhand even though it's nowhere near the 13' we had with our DRV. We've squeezed into a 50'x20' site before but had to suck in our gut to do so. We are always on the lookout for height and radius. We have a wider turning radius than most due to Voyager's wheelbase and Orions KPRA. Solid ground is a plus (as you might have seen we've gotten stuck a few times 🤭). Good luck on your campground and keep us posted! 👍

[@bigtruckbigtravels]

Good radius turns and double width aisles when backing in to sites. 😆 sometimes trees are overrated! 😆 Angled aprons with angled sites makes a difference too.

[@skoffco]

That casino parking lot is totally unacceptable. those truckers don’t care about parking lots like that because they’re beating their companies truck.

How many miles do you get on a set of tires on the Volvo .

They are rated for about 150,000-200,000 miles. But that is an estimate. In general, tires will age out after about 6-8 years depending on usage (road conditions and amount of time the truck sits). Tires last longer if they are driven more consistently....also helps to be properly aligned. 🤔😁🤣
