Joe, I am with you on the seats. I struggle with finding good/comfortable seats. I say I need to upgrade the seats in my Colorado. Don’t be like the Grizwald’s in European Vacation and get stuck in the round-a-bout. “Look kids, Big Ben and Parliament.” 😀

I did an rv move for a discount rate last year to test out a truck camper. F350 with less then 300km and the camper still had brand new smell. Was a great way to test it out for 2 weeks. 9 dollars a night. But the 500 gas card was quickly eaten.

Roundabouts... they are slowly becoming more plentiful in Oregon. We have one nearby, along a decommissioned state highway that was superceded by an Interstate. The traffic actually flows much better through the intersection, except when someone freezes going into it. Thanks for bringing us all along with you.

Wonderful video to get first hand knowledge of renting a Class B van in Italy. Would definitely rent from them. This is good marketing for them too since probably 100,000 Subscribers will likely watch this video at some point. Italy is trying to preserve their cultural heritage so speaking Italian is helpful for them

I traveled for over 30 years for work. Rental vehicles always have a full tank. They even ask you upon departure from the rental facility. Curious as to why their policy is 100% different?
@Weretherussos Жыл бұрын
Many rental companies, even in the US, will give you a car without a full tank and tell you to return it with the same it more fuel in it. Works out for them because you typically bring it back with more than when you left. Our last rental through Hertz was like this

Had you shipped your van over to Europe, you would have found out that Europe runs on 220 Volt, 50 cycle current, and your propane fittings would not have been compatible with the European fittings.
