JAX-Mobile, Meat-Eating Plants, & Oregon Dunes

[@JaxAustin]

Rewatched today during an edit! Just wanted to thank you again🙌🙌 It was so much fun cruising with another boondocker and vlogger! Your fans are great. Had ~2500 people come subscribe🙏

[@nomadicfanatic]

Likewise. It's nice to talk to a "Jax" who I can understand. lol. If you venture down south again, hmu. Heading east out of LA soon. :)

[@Kris_at_WhiteOaksFarm]

Love it. Back in the seventies, I was semi-nomadic... I traveled back and forth across this beautiful country, between working to finance my travels. I'm now landed gentry, and travel just a bit. Thank you for taking me on your travels.

[@michaelrice3021]

Great vid. Eric! What a marvelous beach. It's such a pleasure & blessing to meet those jolly upbeat & smart nomads [like you & Jax].

[@karenrector8187]

Loved this vid as I do all of them. Keep them coming always Eric and I never did mention congrats on the 100,000 and now 101,723. You deserve it all buddy- happy trails to you :)

[@lemoncrinckles]

Another top quality Nomadic Fanatic video. Loved the shots of the dunes and the ocean...just beautiful!

[@realreviews4963]

Jax Mobile was crazy awesome inside. Loved all the reclaimed wood.

[@smallfootprint2961]

I live on the So. Oregon Coast. We call it Paradise. We also grow webbed feet and love the weather. Thanks for showing some of our beautiful coastline.

[@stephenhansen6603]

I've been watching all your videos in the playlist. You have the best quality videos Mr. Jacobs! The content and the editing are top notch. Keep up the good work Sir. Props to Jax. Very inspirational and enjoyable.

[@lovebeingagrandma53]

We enjoy the video's. Great quailty to them! Love it when you have a friend on occasion to show us their ride too. Don't forget the steak waiting for you in OK. Pet Jax for us.

[@klouism1]

Outstanding video Eric. Thank you.

[@dominickbundy6429]

A guy named Jax ! How cool is that. Another great video as usual See you haven't lost your touch. Haven't tuned in for a couple of weeks now. I missed all the travels and adventures you and Jax have been through. So I must go back and catch up on all i missed.. till then stay safe and drive carefully..

[@KJAdventures]

Very cool meet up with "Jax." His rig is really unique and well built. Happy Travels. 👍

[@ve6eee]

The one cool part about traveling is to meet others on the road doing the same thing and to hear their story and to share yours. It is a whole different world out there to travelers! Every day is a new adventure!

[@ColonelK0rn1]

Quality work, and nice views this video. Thanks for introducing us to Jax, will definitely check out his channel. Looks like you guys hit up a great spot at the Oregon dunes. Good thing about the weather being cool is that your Jax can hang out in the RV without fear of overheating. Safe travels.

[@Angel-yl1ck]

It's dark and rainy, but aren't the colors gorgeous. I'm saving all the geo data re boondocking through Oregon. When I take off, I'm starting in Oregon. I've lived here 25 years and haven't traveled much at all. Let alone in an RV. You have stopped at some lovely places along the coast. At last, a blue sky and a lovely day. Glad you had a chance to enjoy it! Hello to Jax.

[@im2crafty]

started at the west coast than east than west , I am loving this! thx eric for all of us who can,t. do this. stay healthy

[@davew5383]

You have way too much fun with your RC Truck ;) lol I need to buy one of those :) I really enjoyed the tour of the Jax bus, he did an amazing job with it. His little yellow school bus is definitely worthy enough to be on one of those Travel channel RV shows. Totally Great Video, I enjoyed every minute of it :)

[@joycebarnett5813]

Love the old wood. Bus is great. this guy has a lot of energy. thanks for sharing

[@rolloverriderpgr]

I must have missed the real Jax in this video.

[@squints2c]

I really look forward to your videos. Keep on livin the dream and documenting it.

[@dreamzofhorses]

Very cool meeting Jax - great school bus and creative set up, subscribed to his channel now. Kudos to Virgin - Awesome company! Thanks for sharing :)

[@dananelson3534]

Oregon has beautiful beaches, those big pieces of driftwood can ruin your day though. Imagine one of those logs coming at you on a wave. Thanks for posting Eric.

[@richardbohlingsr3490]

Really great van build out on the bus chassis. If I had it the only thing that I would have done different would be to have a wet shower/potty room. Happy trails and enjoy the ride.

[@dlmac5935]

The converted school bus is fantastic!

[@maryhenrich1777]

drift wood is very kool burning colors,sounds..thanks for sharing.

[@joanmilano5302]

OMG That skoolie is AWESOME! So original!

[@brandonfisher639]

Great vlog today Eric! Liked the intro to jaxaustin as well. Still laughing about Jax taking a "Dave Hughes!" That guy is such a turd! I did a Seattle to L.A trip on Highway 101 back in the 90's so watching your travels as of late and noticing what is new and what has stayed the same has been fun. Thanks again Eric!

[@johng4250]

If you get a little farther east you can visit some primo Oregon spots. i.e.: Oregon Gardens, and Silverton Falls. I once took about a 2 mile hike and passed 6 waterfalls at Silverton Falls. I think it's Oregons largest state park.

[@bobmcclard9163]

Enjoyed the Oregon Coast... How about a few seconds showing the Casino Buffet ... was it worth the stop? Thanks for introducing us to Jax on KZbin. Do you guys chat back and fourth on a radio?

[@1JawsJr]

The Casino Buffet in Lincoln City and in Florence are not the best. Spirit Mountain has the best Buffet by far.

[@danceswithbears2521]

The casino in Florence isn't that great, from what I've heard. There is great food in Florence but not there.

[@melodygibson4889]

it was nice you got to see a friend, and travel, nice video,

[@ChristineBEACHCRICKETLowery]

Great Skoolie and interview! Enjoyed it!

[@cindymarcelle5744]

i love what he did with his space! i wonder why people with ample solar power go with gas ranges vs. induction plates. but that's just me.

[@TheBroBryn]

Currently 4:32am here, So worth staying up for one of these videos, keep up the good work

[@jimbattaglia1548]

great plug for jax austin eric wtg he will get all kinds of subs now buddy that good of you for doing that

[@stagghorn22]

Skunk Cabbage! Lots of that in Juneau, Alaska forests. Found wherever it is rainy, temperate climate. The insects are pollinating the flowers. It is not know to be insect eating plant. They are in swampy, muddy areas. Great video. Travel safe

[@kellynd5]

Darlingtonia State Park is not home to Skunk Cabbage, LOL. They park is completely based around Darlingtonia ( Cobra Lilys ), and they do in fact " eat " insects.

[@barbzingz]

Awesome time at the coast. I miss that area so much.

[@norasteel5353]

Grrrreat video Eric! Enjoyed meeting Jax and his cool bus. Safe journey to California! Pet Jax for me!

[@bobh.6375]

Hi Eric, I have found this little place on my motorcycle travels. It's called Mitchell Caverns Natural Preserve. Located off interstate 40 mm 100 between Ludlow and Needles, CA. camping there as well. Happy trails.

[@maryl2305]

Really nice video. After you left 3 rivers heading south we passed you as we were heading to 3 Rivers just before you went past Honeyman park. We drive a little yellow chevy spark. We waved. Today is Friday the 7th and the storm has hit and the winds are really bad. Hope by now you are further south and safely out of the storm. You do a great job. Thx

[@renemccullough3099]

Great video! Really enjoyed the tour of Jax's place.

[@mollyquin5155]

Great video, enjoyed seeing the Jax bus interior & will take a peek @ his youtube spot. :-)

[@joshuapereira3787]

GOOD MORNING BEAST NOMADIC FANATIC ERIC JAX KZbin VIDEO 🐈

[@mikew1960]

Been up 6 mins and it is 19 mins long. How can there be a dislikes? Trolls=I want a better life but do not want to put effort into it bunch of whiners.

[@StortWeldingCoLLC]

Mike W I agree, Love or hate Eric, You cant take the Quality of His Vidios Away!!!!! Thanks

[@susanstrickland6774]

Super nice job on the bus. Great video, as always. 👍

[@josephschauster3689]

nice view of the coast! scenery of water is so great to look at!!

[@seawolf1330]

i am a diver in monterey cal. got a boat if you want to go out whale watching let me know

[@0HARE]

Thanks for another great video. I really enjoyed it. Jax Austin and his school bus were really cool. He did a great job with the interior. The only minus I see is the lack of on-board holding tanks. The choice of the Ford with the International 7.9 Diesel was a solid one. I have that same engine in my 1999 F-350. It has 380,000 + miles on it, and still runs like it's brand new. Pulls like a beast, too. Pulls my 23', 5,000 lb. travel trailer like a dream. Glad the sun finally came out. Cloudy skies are a nice change-up, but you really need lots of that broad spectrum sunlight. It does wonders for your mood. Keep On Truckin'

[@Challway]

Hi Eric! I enjoyed your video. It reminded me of a beach on the Georgia east coast .- Jekyll Island. It's called "Driftwood beach". Very nice

[@kimz0212]

Hi Eric, if you go a little more inland in California you are welcome to boondock on our 2 acres in paradise,ca. It's up in the pines . Also sierra nevada brewery is 15 minutes away. Keep up the great videos and safe travels

[@lnljemyl]

Thanks, Eric! I have been remiss in keeping up with your travels for a couple three months now. You are living my dream life. I think I may have waited too long though as my eyes might now be too bad to let me drive again. If I CAN pass my doctor' s eye tests to get my license again, I think I will use that year to get a Clas B and Tiffitu (my cat) and I will wend our way around and across the lower 48 to enjoy life, paint some tees & tags when the mood strikes me and visit all of my family and friends as we go. At 75 years young, I may just never come back. Until then and if I can't pass that test I shall continue to enjoy your videos and be grateful that I can get a bit of the vagabond experience through them. Peace.

[@Sonyatech1]

Eric, I just love that you travel short distances and then give us a peek into the area. Geographically (being from the east coast originally) I'm learning a lot and making notes. :) Be safe and take care.

[@BlackTopBoondocker]

Hey he said "BlackTop Boondocking" is that a trade mark violation? LMAO :)~ Cool spot and not so much a stealth bus lol

[@fortunateadventures3664]

OMG, JAX Love Love Love it!Awesome set up,Great taste. Love all the recycled wood.This video is my favorite on you tube,right now.Are we trending yet?👍🏻🐱🚐🚌

[@topherjoe1]

So fun! Loving your videos!

[@thoughtsinpassing2968]

Cool Beans Eric...Glad you met up with a fellow traveler and one who is so interesting. Getting a sponsor to assist is a great idea, race cars, city buses, and other vehicles are wrapped with ads WHY NOT a RV ???

[@TXDSGMACH]

You missed some of the best craft beer in Oregon at Rogue in Newport

[@donaldleigh9155]

WOW i tell you guys every time i see eric has a new video this one really rocks safe travels eric and jax.

[@BlaneysChannel]

That's cool. Side by side toilet and cook stove. Guy can get rid of yesterday's crap while he cooks tomorrow's crap. That's cool.

[@JaxAustin]

Solo Roamin' lol

[@ibwatching9752]

Outstanding BUS! Love it.. ;)

[@happyhighway106]

#52 Hello Eric and Jax. Interesting video about Mr. Jax Austin's Motor Homes. From what was shown and said, it took a lot of hard work to rebuild the school bus. And it looks very Good! Nice work Mr. Austin. I found that Casino's are good places to stay and they offer good food, too! I tried the one arm bandit---lost!!

[@TheMira93]

love the longer vlogs.

[@Wildersport]

Love the Skoolie, Could use more headroom though.

[@Natschke_Family_Adventures]

Just have to step out and then there is plenty.

[@maynardcat]

Great video, I enjoyed meeting Jax Austin and did subscribe to his channel.

[@como5555]

great vid (among many)...truly enjoyed the tour of Jax's bus...very creative...I am just beginning my journey into mobile living...let my apt go and started placing my items on craigslist and other places for sale...absolutely enjoy your videos

[@Captain1diot]

Oregon looks like a beautiful place. This is why I sub to people like Eric and AdamTheWoo, I'm able to see great places in America that I've got chance of seeing in real life (I live on the east coast of England) keep on traveling Eric.

[@cam-bo11]

That's crazy cool! I had no idea skunk cabbage ate bugs.

[@pamelamontag1117]

Luna Sea is my cousin's fish house. Hey Robert Anthony : ) Love your travels. Nice videos.

[@Medame88]

Hi Eric and Jax 😺!!! As always a great video. Safe travels.

[@Brookside975]

Great video & liked the bus tour too.

[@chrisstoj5614]

Awesome video and that RC Truck is crazy fast !

[@CDubsJourney]

Fun video and shots of the beach were sweet! Jax bus is very nice!

[@debbiebailey7493]

Erik, welcome...you are in my back yard. not sure if you are still around but if you are you saw some gnarly weather today. trees down and power outages everywhere...stay safe

[@garycampbell8663]

Eric i like the US flags on the front of your camper,they Rock.

[@gbcocean1955]

My son and I love Yachats, especially Luna sea food house,yummy food, when we visit on vacation.

[@CampervanKevin]

The 7.3 Turbo Diesel is legendary and for good reason. I have had 4 of them. With it being on a school bus chassis how does it handle interstates? My Bug out Bus "Bob" was a shuttle bus converted to rv and did great on highway's. I wonder about how this bus is geared.. Did he mention his mpg? CVK

[@JaxAustin]

Does fairly well. It does have low gears, so the sweet spot in around 50mph

[@Blue_Mudder]

Great idea to get a short bus to have a diesel! Sad that the RV industry is just now putting diesels back into class C's, but it will cost you an arm, leg, and first born child

[@BobTheGod44]

Heading to Napa Calif anytime soon? Would like to meet up and talk.

[@RWSBrowning]

_MEOW?_ No Meow this video

[@anthonymarino4260]

nice tour of jax

[@dianecraig6055]

Another great video! It was fun seeing "the other Jax"...but I missed the REAL Jax! Do you remember where the carnivorous plants were? Near what town? I know that you give the GPS coords, but if I put that in a search window, it doesn't come up with a name...

[@ClassALiving]

lol those little cars are fun toys :)

[@byates59]

I am all for insect eating plants! Especially if they like eating mosquitoes!

[@creativehearts7127]

Your friend JAX should paint a mural on the ceiling.

[@GardenerEarthGuy]

Did you go to Eel River Brewing in Fortuna, California? Great beer, truckers sleep over before delivering to Eureka in the morning, & there's a river walk.

[@DM-pc4vs]

Oregon is a fine place but can't wait for California. Thanks Eric.

[@JaamieMaarie]

"Normal Cat Jax" Hahah speaking of cat Jax, we didn't get to see him all video!

[@sheilahag]

I was thinking to go to the Coast this weekend & MAYBE see ya.....but then I thought that you post a couple days out and I would miss you....so guess I'll just say "Hi" from here.....Central Point, Oregon! Enjoy the Coast. Don't get blown away...it supposed to be awfully windy.

[@1JawsJr]

The Mrs Jaws Jr and I both ate at the Luna Sea Fish House and it is one of the best places to eat on the Oregon Coast! Also I did a really cool video of the Yachats area. Anybody who is driving through Yachats, the Luna Sea Fish House is a MUST Stop!!!

[@adventureswithgnomie6553]

Great Interview Eric!

[@julesl7679]

Great video, great scenery, good info on casino boondocking. thx

[@nomaddaze]

I like his channel I found it a few weeks ago when he went to one of my favorite areas : )

[@klyonsden]

7.3L baby! Have one myself in a pickup that I have had completely went through to pull a 5ver across North America!

[@rainwoodgrace6286]

I missed seeing Jax. Great video though.

[@HulaShack1]

Awesome video. Loved the meat eating plants. We could use a bunch of those down here in Florida!. Going to Subscribe to Jax's channel. Thanks for introducing him to us.

[@FromThePrairies]

move inland. All along the coast this time of year all you're going to to get is rain. Watching other KZbinrs in Oregon right now and they're all getting sunshine. Mind you, they're on the east side of the state.

[@whizartscustom5230]

still no rush to get to CA, we still have rain, n thunderstorm here too!

[@wolfpak8228]

Great jaxmobile, I like it

[@Gman030]

Just realized, you never eat seafood! Too bad some of the best seafood in the world in Washington and Oregon. Keep the video's coming!

[@wxrtfan]

You know I read about a sperm whale that bit the end off of a submarine and sucked all the seamen out...thanks for the video.

[@jeffvigna7576]

I was there in 95 for Dead show in Eugene, missed the Painted Desert
