Love your channel! My partner Paul and I are currently renovating a 2010 Arctic Fox 990 truck camper and we’re so excited to get on the road, we’ve been looking for trucks similar to your setup with a flatbed and storage on the sides but I was curious if you think you absolutely needed your 5500 vs a 3500 dually? Our camper has a slide out and is pretty heavy but we feel like a 3500 would suffice. Since you have experience in it I wanted to know what y’all’s opinion was on it?
@thecumminscamper
@thecumminscamper 10 ай бұрын
Nicollllleeee thanks so much for the comment and compliments on our channel. Glad y’all are enjoying it. I would 100% recommend a 5500. Having spent our first 2 years on the road with a 3500 we learned that being overweight happens quickly and then things start breaking. Not sure if y’all have gone all the way back to our Broken Down In Baja series but we killed an axle in Mexico 2 years ago and part of that I attribute to our weight. An arctic fox is an awesome camper but they’re known for being heavier than some other brands. Then you’ll find yourself stuffing your flatbed full of gear, your backseat becomes your garage and before you know it you weigh 16k for a vehicle designed for say 14,500. That was our dilemma. Additionally a 5500 often is the same price as a 3500 as it’s a more specific buyer so there’s less demand in my opinion. Hope this helps!

I had campers on both sides of me but you don't look straight side ways dude! Lol. Even my neighbor said to me, "man u didn't come out for hours!" " i said cause i can see the view pretty good toasty warm inside!" Lol! N that is 100% no bs. So if we ever cross paths u must ask me to show u it ain't that bad. Lol 🍻

I think if you stick to well researched, nice campgrounds you can find a safe avenue to introduce yourself into the RV/vanlife world. My Mom did a year as a nomad in a van at age 62 by herself and I can’t think of any sketchy stories from her travels and she stuck closely to campgrounds. We also know a ton of solo female travelers who take lots of safety precautions with great success and only a few sketchy stories. We have a lot of “rules” as to where we’ll go and stay because even as a guy I want nothing to do with a bad situation or a confrontation. Thanks for watching and commenting. I truly hope you can find a way to safely get out there and travel similarly to how we are

@@thecumminscamper State of Florida now gives the residents of Florida a Month head start on out of state campers. I would look for last minute cancellations and I booked a year in advance the fulling furnished large tents they set up.

Key West has definitely got some diversity of beliefs. You’ve got the typical Florida conservative crowd mixed with the local Key West flair and tourism crowd. Made for a nice mix of cultures and everyone was having a great time. Tons of people most certainly but it was New Year’s Eve and Day so pretty busy time of year to be there. Thanks for watching and commenting!!!

Keys campground are the biggest rip offs ever. There was a camp ground in key largo the lot was like 15x15 . On a hot November, brother the smell of pee everywhere.

If you have the ability to book a state campground in the keys they’re much more affordable but there’s only so much land space down there so supply and demand equates to super high prices.

Paradise is expensive, in Key West average room on other side of Island is around 450 night so the Campgrounds are cheapest way to stay but we usually stay in Key West and love it, just the way it is with very few campgrounds!

That's a RIP-OFF!!! As long as people pay that, they will continue to charge those rates. I visited Key West in 1978, 1982, & 2017. I am so fortunate to have visited then, KW is imploding on itself. KW is being destroyed by TOURISM!!! It's too bad.

I mean Key West is and has been largely supported by tourism. If you took away tourism from Key West it would be more likely to implode on itself than with tourism. I think extreme inflation and high demand is the bigger problem here than simply blaming tourism
