I've been a lurker/avid watcher for several months now. I binged-watched all(well, most) of your videos from the beginning and I couldn't be more happy for you. My wife and I are in our 50's and pop-up campers here in SE Wisconsin. I'd like to transition to a travel trailer or RV in the future and your videos have been outstanding in content for new RV'ers. Congratulations on the the RV and Happy New Year. I look for to following you in your travels in 2016. I wish you would roll through WI sometime, you're welcome to boondock anytime.

[@kjrc1999]

Congratulations Eric and Jax! So happy for you guys! Just want to point out, I think it says something special that one of the first things you've moved into the new digs, was Jax's tree house! Thank you for sharing your adventures. I hope to enjoy many more!

[@jessamygoddard4112]

What a wonderful RV! I am so glad you had enough support to finance it. It is a testament to you that the viewers support you like that. I will be interested to watch your travels. I love Jax too. Take care xxx

[@nomadicfanatic]

+Jessamy Goddard It is a great testament to the connection we can have online even though a screen is between us all. :)

[@danah.320]

Enjoyed your comments! I watched you a few times years ago, stopped, then came back recently. Your channel has improved immensely. I agree, being able to purchase a really nice RV from donations is something I wouldn't have thought was possible. Nice to see that others appreciate your channel as well.

[@HoneyGardenHomestead]

Oh man. I am very jealous. I would give my left testicle to live and travel the states in an RV. If I wasn't married or had a small child i would be living the the dream. You go man, well done on your new RV. Let's hope she lasts a long time and nothing goes wrong.

[@mjmorro7757]

I'm watching your 899 videos sequentially and I finally see you in something that you're staying in! You're been in an old RV, van, and another old RV. You're still running the roads 2.5 years in this one, good for you.

[@alanw199]

I am so happy for you Eric, You are honest and yes, humble as you say. You are a very good person and also just like the rest of us who are here. Just regular people who support you. Yes some are not nice to you but that is jealousy and just bitterness. I think it is a great thing you used your monies very logically and within reason. This is great you got this new RV and with such low miles too. I wish you well and hope it serves you well. You most definitely earned it because you give us all so very much knowledge, entertainment, and adventure in each video you make for us. Thank you for all your hard work you do to give us your all. You keep doing what your doing and know you are helping us too. Great choice you made. Really nice RV. You and Jax enjoy. Thank you for your hard work and also know by all means you deserve this and so much more. Stay with us and keep making those entertaining videos for us. You really do great work. Many thanks again. Congratulations.

[@reneyc723]

I'm so thrilled to see your new RV. she is beautiful. looking forward to the further adventures of you and Jax. so glad that your viewers helped to make this happen for you. you share so much of your life with us.

[@reene212]

OMG! you and Jax totally deserve this. I'm so hapy for you guys!!!

[@k5krusher]

I have to admit, I have been critical of you sometimes in the past, But i am REALLY happy for you Eric. I'm glad to see you moved into such an awesome,reliable and modern RV. I hope this allows you to go anywhere you want in the US with very little worry or issue. I'm truly happy for you and Jax.

[@andyroldan3898]

The power of KZbin and a great/amazing following. I appreciate creators that mention the viewer.

[@TheEchoGamingPC]

Congratulations to you, Eric! So happy to see what KZbin has done for you.

[@wanderingsmiles3288]

I agree David.

[@wanderingsmiles3288]

+Castaway Well said, Castaway!

[@dannegeorge6442]

marcia duncan Comment removed

[@wanderingsmiles3288]

+Danne George Danne, David is the one who started this string by congratulating Eric on the new rv and on having loyal you tube fans. Not sure why you would flag him or rant at me.... but will wait with high anticipation for that much deserved apology he and I am owed. ;-D

[@TheEchoGamingPC]

Danne George This was my original comment, "Congratulations to you, Eric! So happy to see what KZbin has done for you." I haven't said anything since. I don't care if anybody agrees with me or not, I was just stating my opinion.

[@jls769597]

I am so very very happy for you and Jax!!! It made my day seeing how happy you are, and what an awesome blessing to have your new home. Love watching your videos :)

[@bigtrouble72]

Congratulations! My husband and I love watching your videos. Our family thinks we're crazy for traveling with our 2 cats but even they are fans of Jax! Thank you for taking the time to make your vids and bon voyage!

[@MrMac5150]

I would never give this guy a dime.

[@jright2624]

+Tom Tom awesome, you sir are a genius

[@dansouthcomb5439]

Enjoy your new Rig Eric. You deserve it. We supported you monetarily and through our words of encouragement because we believe in you and what you are doing. You are living your dream, and many of us are living that dream through your eyes. For many aspiring full timers, you are providing important education through your trial and sometimes errors. And for the many people who who would love to live your lifestyle, but for whatever reason cannot, your videos provide that (dream fix). Your film editing is top notch, and your content entertains me to the point that I am looking for new videos daily.

[@dennish4553]

I am so happy for you and Jax. I pray dear Lord, your. blessings on this new motorhome and may you give it many good years of reliable service to Eric, and keep him safe while traveling. the crossroads of our great nation. Amen.

[@dennish4553]

Is it the same size as the old on ?

[@bevr2164]

+Dennis H You are right on Dennis.....,every good and perfect gift comes from God above.....He is the one we should praise for his great gift, and yes, I too pray blessings on Eric and Jax and for safe travels as they work for our enjoyment. "Be Happy" I am so happy for you.....

[@adventurousspirit6628]

So happy for you that you and Jaz are finally in a nice newer RV! Having a vehicle that you can't trust is extremely stressful so I get it when you say a lot of the burden of driving Olga is gone. Yes, there are a lot of viewers that do appreciate you and have your back! Wishing you and my boy Jaz a happy New Year, and I look forward to seeing more of your videos!

[@gregorythomas3709]

I Was nervous to look into comments expecting alot of hate, But it's actually looking like nice comments,; Congrats on the new Tioga, Enjoy it; You deserve it; Please keep this one clean, You deserve to have a nice looking, Clean environment for the both of you;

[@MetaView7]

It's been only 7 months... I can see the amazing transformation in you. You are much happier, more carefree, and made much more enjoyable videos.

[@TheTECShow]

The new RV looks good, congrats Eric.

[@lauracook222]

I am thrilled that you have a newer RV....so glad that everyone is so supportive of your life path....see how much we love you....

[@travisli-rufus1949]

+DougSeger finally, jax got a new RV. now the future is looking more brighter. more places he can visit, and show it to us. so awesome!!!

[@downundasvideos6402]

Hey Eric, thanks for the tour of your new rig, it looks like a fantastic buy and I'm sure that you and Jax will have many great trips and memories in it. Downunda - Australia

[@CruisingTheCut]

Congratulations on your new RV and also on breaching the 60,000 subscribers milestone! Best to you and Jax.

[@earthbybike]

Happy New Year Eric! The absence of stress in your voice makes you sound like a different person. So very happy for you.

[@DesignsByRareBeauty]

Can't wait for the new adventures in the new RV. Congratulations Eric and Jax :D. Wish I knew more about the podcasts and how to watch them.

[@DesignsByRareBeauty]

I wish you did periscope Eric. I can't seem to figure out podcasts!

Amen!

Congratulations on your new RV. It is very beautiful. I am in love with your cat, Jax and just adore watching him. Happy trails to you.

[@PUPPYBONZ]

Takes class to humble ones self and thank everyone.

[@carebare4U2]

Eric as you know many of us live vicariously through your travels and adventures and are happy to do see you doing well and moving on up

[@robinbobbin75155]

Congrats Eric!!! I'm so happy for you. I've been watching since almost the beginning of your channel. I'm glad you finally got into a rig you can feel comfortable and safe living in. We are hoping to get back on the road ourselves in 2016. It has been a struggle losing our travel trailer, but just like the transmission in Olga....everything happens for a reason. :) #fulltime_rving

[@easypeasyvegan1797]

WOW!! What an upgrade! So happy for you and Jax. I bet Jax is so happy w/ his set up being right next to the window watching everything pass by, hahaha ..... I just adore Jax. Eric since I subscribed to your channel a month ago or so .... I feel well entertained and some what educated taking us to places that I myself have never been and never knew about, so thank you for your time and dedication. You got what you deserve w/ the help of your fellow viewers. Can't wait to see more vids. Congratulation on your new home on wheels :)

[@tedgegi155]

Congratulations to you and Jax on your belated Christmas gift. Looking forward to your 2016 travels.

[@trishawhitehouse4226]

I saw a Tioga at the store, and it caught my eye; seems just about perfect for myself and hubby...you got a nice upgrade! Enjoy. Just starting to research Tioga ..and hear good stuff. I love your gratitude and your sweetness. It makes me happy to see how genuine you are, bless you, We are still in the process of fixing up the old house to sell some day ... praying for money to do that. 🙏

[@imvicari]

This is great! Sometimes I wish I had an RV rather than a camper trailer, but I make the best of it.

[@evelynbaezlindecamp2074]

Eric & Jax, I am so happy for you. Thank you for sharing.

[@mromeyn]

You and Jax are loved!! My stickers are on my RV bumper! Happy Trails

Congratulations ! on your new home...I'm very happy for you and Jax and wish you nothing but the best.. Stay happy, healthy, and drive safely....

[@anthonymarino4260]

happy four you !!!!!!!!!!!!! everything happens for a reason

[@robertorion6559]

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the hard work you do in making these videos. I have had the RV bug for years, but have never owned an RV. After much thought, my wife and I are going to be buying a winnebago view for part time RV'ing. The videos you and so many other "you tubers" make have helped me so much to learn and understand what is needed to "hit the road". Thanks for all that you do and have a great new years in your new RV. Congrats!

[@wlwal1]

I knew ERIC, if all of us followers got together, we can help you to achieve what WE all want you to do! CONGRADS!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR BUDDY!!!!!

[@Burnstravels]

That is so cool that you were able to upgrade you RV, and it all came from a transmission problem. The compounding of numbers is great and its great to see people helping others. That's Awesome and enjoy your new RV.

[@findingsimon]

such a rad camper, Love your commitment to the C class rigs. hopefully you'll get much better mileage on this guy

[@thomaskatayama3336]

He shoots! He scores! Congrats, Eric! "She" looks AWESOME!!!

[@joerogaine3093]

+tom bednar Didn't he sell his old RV in a ripoff deal to an elderly couple? I.E. The same RV he referred to as a death trap and later said it ended up in a wrecking yard.

[@ryfish5]

+William Earley why, because he isn't a jaded whiner yet?

[@blobby273]

well done Eric it just shows you never know whats round the corner only a few weeks ago you were overloading on stress trying to find away to get your transmission fixed and worrying your self and here you are not only did it get fixed but you were able to upgrade to a newer RV , you are truly bless my friend , I look forward to all the stupid troll follow ups and vids probably on there way right now ,

[@Rvlove]

Hey Eric, congrats on the new rig - look forward to being on the Podcast show with you and Jon and co tomorrow night. Cheers, Marc and Julie

[@steveharkins279]

Well this was a little time capsule, congrats right back at yea, going 4 down toad in 2018. Perhaps in 2 years it will come back around to me, who knows.Or maybe not, funny how life works. But I am 4 down for 7K E350 toad. i.imgur.com/syTHGuq.jpg

[@itsnotme07]

Awesome UPGRADE Eric & Jax!! Congrats!! Thanks for the tour!! Sounds like that dealer did things right with the new bed/toilet. Many miles and smiles ahead for both of you! And us...out here watching. Congrats on 60000 subs!!!!

Love love your videos, and love Jax... I am a cat person too, they are wonderful companions... Keep the videos coming... Take care and happy travels.

[@dottiecameron393]

Congratulations! I think it's wonderful you got a newer RV. so happy for you and Jax. no more worrying about being stuck somewhere. she's a beauty. safe travels.

[@edzkos59]

I can't tell you how happy I am for you ...HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

[@frozenoem1]

Electric Locks - first thing hide spare key somewhere on the exterior. I've experienced the joy of lock out by Rottweiler. Running solar wires down the chase way for fridge along side of vent, that's where my solar was installed by dealer, No leaks. Check the rubber now, hoses, belts, plumbing, etc. even if already bought 14 year old components due tend towards wear. Definitely looks clean and well kept, enjoy.

[@Theskybluelake]

First time I saw Eric was this video; now I watched all his videos...

[@jeanettecallahan8777]

Good for you and jax ! I can only imagine HOW AMAZING It now is having low mileage RIG that isn't going to break down anywhere in the near future. Your a smart fellow it's well deserved Please don't change to much Eric .

[@tankadin5k]

Have you named it yet?....Happy for ya!!! WOOOOOOT!!!!

[@nomadicfanatic]

+shawn skipper not yet. :) Leaning towards "Terry" Terry the Tioga

[@captainimij]

+Nomadic Fanatic how about Triumph?

[@craigsawyer96]

+Nomadic Fanatic That's a pretty cool name Eric!! ☺

[@thinkofwhy]

+shawn skipper Well, it was crowd funded, so how about Moby, which is derived from mob, which is a type of crowd, and mobility. Moby Tioga. Or Toby Tioga. Or Tranny the Tioga, after that transmission that created this opportunity.

[@itsallgood817]

+thinkofwhy Tranny? Really! LOL Just think about that a minute. ;-)

Thats incredible. This is the power of community. You definitely know that you are supported in what you are doing. Congrats!

[@ronaldrippen979]

This is a very nice looking RV. The former owner(s) must have taken good care of it. Have a great 2016 as you and Jax travel the country.

[@ronaldpayne896]

Congrats Eric,I saw Jax give the 2 paws up sign! With that big honkin 7.4/l engine,me thinks you wont be needing that 0-60mph eventually sign anymore! And good for you staying humble in that fancy machine,and taking time to thank your fellow 'Nomads'

Congrats Eric!!

What is he going to do with the old rv

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Congratulations Eric!! Jax and you look so happy now in a larger and safer RV! It is so distressing to have leaks and failures in an RV when its your full time home, very stressful. I am so glad for you!!!!! You look quite the camper now, dude!

What a nice looking RV, and a mechanically sound one, something you did need for the extensive traveling across country you do, and it looks very cozy and clean on the inside making for a very nice home on the road for you and Jax.

Glad to see you moving up to a newer RV so the Normadic Fanatic journey will continues.

[@camquarterkillacam]

The power of youtube is awesome!

[@HDXProd]

I just noticed the lighter, white interior really helps with the quality of lighting and in turn video quality too. The white cloth sunshades work just like Softbox lighting fixtures and r provide more even and natural lighting, and what looks like better skin tones for you ,and "Fur Tones" for Jax.

Any plans to come to Canada? The east or west coast are really nice

and those shoes

[@leslierichards2118]

Wow! Congratulations Eric and Jax. I had a feeling😉 This will be so great for you AND all your fans! You'll get to be less stressed about everything breaking down.

I know it's been nearly a year since you posted this video but I was curious. How much did it cost, or would have cost to put a new transmission in the old RV?

+Tony Eden I was already on his ass and did my usual long assed troll spank. I'm waiting for Eric to tell me to stop! LOl! I have WAY to much time on MY hands! Wish it would warm up and DRY UP (flood from rains) so I can get some outside work done on MY RV Honey or we would head to Padre Island meet Eric and get the hell out of this crazy weather! Blue Sky's and Safe Journeys!

[@Jean-qn4fy]

[@tonyeden8381]

+Dragonetta ........sure looks that way The people that wanna dis him sure go to a lotta trouble

[@JamesdeChrist]

Jerry Densmore You are wrong about that. Views cannot be bought. Google makes it too difficult to just create massive numbers of false accounts from one IP and the advert system will fry you if you try to use any kind of false views system. Eric(Nomadic Fanatic) is popular- people like his videos. That is in disputable. By adding his youtube name to the title you are effectively tricking people into going to your clown troll video. But that doesn't work over time. You people are such mental case psychopathic dirt bags.

[@tacoma_jon]

Wow how your videos have changed since this.... that’s a compliment. Your filming and editing have gotten better by leaps and bounds

[@Struckgold]

Fantastic! Does that model have 3 point seat belts?

+Struckgold yes

[@Struckgold]

+Nomadic Fanatic Great, much safer than a lap-belt no doubt. Stay safe and good luck with the new wagon!
