It's our first time... RV Boondocking & Buc-ee's on our way to Texas

Time for Texas! We traveled more than 1,000 miles from Ohio to Texas in our Grand Design Momentum fifth wheel toy hauler. And let's just say it was an adventure... In this episode, we share some of our mishaps including a new lesson we've learned despite being seasoned RVers, our first boondocking experience, our fuel costs and a stop at Buc-ee's- the most iconic (and record holding) "gas station" and travel center in the world.
What's next?

Exactly!

[@rickd8174]

@@tCCZebra70 asking one of the truckers if they had an extra bolt would have been the way to adapt and improvise. Rigging up a cheap pair of channel locks was a stupid and dangerous idea.

Buc-ee's, the best travel center in the world. They are not a truck stop, they are a travel center. Built around the family who is traveling for vacation. Cleanest restrooms you will find on your travels. Enjoy Texas.

I was thinking the same thing! There are lots of things to see in Texas and we are right next door to New Mexico. Carlsbad Caverns and beautiful forest in NM. And, you can get to Colorado thru the panhandle.

Texas is a whole ‘nother country.

[@jodybogdanovich4333]

I'm 67 and never visited Texas until last year. I flew down to SA both times and loved the vibe (River Walk, on-and-off bus, etc.--so much to experience in the town). Also spent several days around New Braunfels and Hill Country. Looking forward to exploring a lot more of Texas with my RV. I just pray gas prices get back down where they were before the current administration took over. You are my type of people. I'm from the Evergreen State (Washington). It's beautiful and home to 3 National Parks, but . . . it's so hard to be red in such a blue state. God Bless America 🇺🇲

Adventure, freedom and guts. Happy travels.

[@aweeks6649]

You are really good at making interesting videos! My husband watches RV videos a lot. Most of the time, I think "WOW! This is not that good." Your first video is much better than people who having been doing these videos for years. Love the way you showed the quick repair on the way and the Buc-ees tour! We have never stopped a "Buc-ees" so it was very helpful. We traveled with our kids when they were little (one was handicapped). It was tough but some of our favorite memories were those trips. Keep making videos. I subscribed. Can't wait for your next one.

[@pavementpoundingrvsquad5813]

Seemed like a fun and trying road trip. Glad ya'll made it to your destination safely.

Hopefully they keep expanding and building more!

[@avidparent4643]

I hope you guys get one soon🥰

[@toddgriffis896]

As a resident of Corpus Christi I hope we never get one or one between here and SA, I avoid Bucees at all costs

[@adriannurse1502]

Great video. I love how you don't hide the problems. I am a first time watcher and I just subscribed. We never leave early either. The latest we have ever gotten out was 5:30 pm. In all honesty though the car broke down a couple of miles from the house and we had to limp it home and change vehicles. That was before we bought the RV. We have a 2006 42' Class A Monaco Dynasty diesel pusher. We tow a Lincoln MKX. The latest we have ever left in it was 4:30pm. It was the day we picked it up. The last thing they had to do was install our tow gear. After a quick light's check we found the guy had wired the turn signals backwards and that had to be redone. Then we had to figure out how to put the car in tow mode. When we finally left the dealership it was 4:30pm on a Friday in Tampa Florida in the rain. Being in the rain in rush hour traffic definitely taxed my stress level. We finally pulled into a Cracker Barrel in Brunswick Georgia at 12:30 am. For the night. I slept like a baby. Other Class A 's were there running their generator so we did too. We are all electric and in the South we wanted those 3 roof top air conditioning units running. We have never been to Buckee's but we look forward to one day. Looking forward to your next video. 🙂

[@RoadWereOn]

Thank you for the positive feed back! There’s always bumps in the road, usually offers some opportunity to learn something new or challenge yourself to find a solution! Definitely stop at a Buc-ee’s if your passing one, it’s an experience! We are glad to have you here!

[@pmraul2921]

Thank you for sharing your experience. Really does help the rest of us.

[@RoadWereOn]

Thanks for watching! Safe travels!

[@karriehouse7249]

We had our faucet turn on as well, learned to use the hair ties really quick. We have a list that we use when getting ready to hookup/unhook. it has helped so much. There is so much to remember. We don't travel too much during the winter and have Harvest Hosts but at 100+ degrees - we don't use it. Hope to some day. Thanks for the video, glad you made it ;)

[@nathanurick8320]

We’ve done a lot of traveling with a large 5th wheel and we run from Texas to the Florida keys. My suggestion to you two is plan plan and plan. Don’t leave late in the evening especially if you don’t have a paid spot waiting for you.

[@c.m.303]

Disagree...I am a disabled widow who had a small child with transition issues when we traveled...The only way to take the stress off and get an early start was to just get going at whatever time that was that we were ready! Often it was dinner time and sometimes after when I could get everything done and in the RV, so we drove down the road and slept in the Walmart...just a few miles from home. It took the stress off and made a super easy, early start the next day. Plus it was just fun!

[@nathanurick8320]

@@c.m.303 C.M. That’s awesome if it works for you and if I felt like you I would do the same.

[@paulcourtemanche2386]

My wife and I visited a Bucee's in Florida last year. That has to be the coolest rest stop that we have ever seen. It would be great to have one here in New Hampshire

[@RoadWereOn]

Agreed! Would love to see more around the country! Glad you guys enjoyed your stop as well!

[@c.m.303]

A fun trick to solve the issue of getting everyone ready and out the door with a late start...do it the day before the trip starts! It takes all the pressure off to casually get ready and on the road sometimes before dinner, sometimes after dinner...and make it down the road even just a mile to the local Wally world to sleep. It has many advantages...it makes for a really easy start the next morning! And the fun and excitement get to start the night before with sort of a test run before putting miles on, in case something was forgotten. Enjoy the journey!

[@VetSemperFi]

Enjoyed watching your trip and I have some tips for a safer, more relaxing adventure. 1) Add some reflective tape to the sides of your slide-outs so drivers can better see when it is deployed in rest areas. 2) Start looking for rest areas well before you get tired. If you get one sooner, take the break. 3) DON'T rely on MacGyver road fixes... GO directly to the closest part store or dealer and get it fixed right!

[@cwavt8849]

I don't RV, but those are excellent tips

[@legalpuppy8602]

I am a San Antonian. Even WE can't believe our weather this year. It is abysmal. The way that you described Buc-ee's is spot on. Even Texans go there regularly.

[@maryhumphrey2236]

You experienced some real challenges. Welcome to Texas! We sometimes go out of our way to stop at a Buc-ee's. I agree with the other commenter, you missed the 100s. Glad it was a bit cooler during your trip.

Lovin your travel trailer vibes and the visit to Buc-ee's ❣ It looks like a real busy place but since it's already summer vacation time; that could be the one reason why the store was extremely jam packed.

[@living2ndchildhood347]

Always turn off the water pump and secure the propane tank valves. Run your refrigerator off of your batteries which are being charged by your truck. The same thing is true when you are leaving your camper for any significant amount of time (sightseeing or shopping, etc). Keep a roll of Viva paper towels in the cab of your truck.

Great quick fix on the trailer..... I'm not sure I would have trusted that! you proved me wrong..... Side note, When we decided we were going to "boondock" at all, I knew a generator was a must.... I got one just big enough to run one AC.... and it could charge the batteries at the same time

[@danphillips3589]

Yes! Turn off water pump when driving. The hair band may work on the faucet, but if a pipe, or hose vibrates loose or breaks you'll still have water all over.

[@arkansasboy45]

Always pre-plan your rest stops. Calling walmarts or other places a head of time will let you know really quickly if they offer overnight parking.

[@halkench]

We've stayed in countless Walmart's for a quick overnight sleep with our 45' toy hauler. All Walmart's allow overnight parking, however some have city ordinances against it. Definitely call ahead. Sometimes they have signs that say "no overnight parking", call anyway. We've seen that twice, and the manager said "go ahead and park out of the way".

[@danphillips3589]

@@halkench Correct. A lot of times the "No Overnight" parking is a way to allow them to keep out homeless that want to spend a week or more in the lot. I've stayed in several Wal Marts that had the 'No Overnight Parking" signs. I simply go to Customer Service Desk and ask if it's all right. I've yet to be turned down. I asked about the signs and was told it's only for those spaces the signs are in because that's how the delivery trucks get in, and RV's have been parked there keeping the delivery trucks from being able to get in.

Then went through two new Jaycos (back when Jayco was truly Jayco, now it's been bought out) and had significant trouble with both of them.

Our new favorite rving channel. The trials and tribulations are a major part of traveling in an rv, however the rewards are much greater. Harbor Freight has a Predator 3500 generator that we used for 4 years when boondocking and it ran one ac, microwave, and kept the battery charged. We kept it locked to the bed of the truck and never unloaded it to use it. Make sure the exhaust is clear and pointed towards the cab. We are looking forward to your ventures.

Part of the learning curve of RVing. Good experiences for future travel trips. Cool McGyver moment with those pliers. Might a good idea to get a cheap tackle box and fill it with a variety of nuts, bolts, washers, screws, hose clamps, etc. As well as a cheap tool kit. Have fun with your new toy!! Aslo, are you running 1 or 2 batts? 2 in parallel last a lot longer. Or a generator. Surprised you rig didn't come with one. Worth the investment.
