RUDE GERMAN OWNER TOLD US TO LEAVE (We Did NOTHING wrong) ‼️

In today’s video, we share our story of being evicted from a motorhome Aire in the Black Forest, Germany 🇩🇪
We were enjoying what we thought would be a relaxing stay at what we thought was a really great motorhome aire, only to be abruptly confronted and asked to leave by an unexpectedly grumpy German owner. 😡 Despite doing absolutely nothing wrong, we found ourselves having to pack up and leave.
What went down? Why did this happen to us? Was the owner truly justified, or was there a misunderstanding? Join us as we dive into the details of this bizarre situation, share our side of the story, and reflect on how this incident unfolded.

[@kenwheeler1525]

I would say that sometimes it’s better to just go along with what you are asked to do. You said that you refused to move when he asked you to as, you had a difference of opinion? I suspect it was at that point he decided that you were going to leave. His place, his rules. Also, why on earth have you left it so long to sort the batteries? You’ve known for ages that they were knackered!?

[@friedrichmountbatten9910]

Well , in my opinion it is rude not to comply with the rules of an owner.

[@chrisclarke7828]

Correct Guys.

[@Touringwiththekids]

We were parked in the lines of a bay that he himself had marked out. No rules were broken 👍

​@@Touringwiththekidsbut he asked u to move,for a reason, his rules

[@g0jnh]

In my truck driving years before I officially retired I was told by a mechanic where the vehicle was serviced that when starting the vehicle to depress the clutch which in turn helps the starter spin the engine and thus uses less power from the batteries, I have done this ever since even with my petrol car.

[@alanhat5252]

Yes, the layshaft constantly turns & if the oil is cold & thick it can make a difference. Let the pedal up as soon as the engine has started so the gearbox can lubricate itself before you ask it to do any work.

[@chrisclarke7828]

Yep, good advice.

[@keithhooper6123]

Always done that ,in 45 years of driving. If not done, starter is turning engine, and gearbox..

[@banofeepie]

Yeah I think if the owner of the land asks you to do something, you should do it. Plenty of sites about to go to. Happy Birthday Jack, hope you had a awesome day.

[@Touringwiththekids]

We think you should definitely listen to the owner. But, if you've paid and parked as indicated and correctly then we don't think the owner should pester people. We weren't in anyone's way hey ho 👍

Happy birthday jack 🎉 I am a truck mechanic in the UK, even new batteries can be problematic. I literally fitted a brand new pair to a truck today, and the trucks I work on (Renault) have a battery health meter/guage on the dash. Of the 5 bars (max health) only 3 were showing. They will come up and improve to full health when you use them and hopefully give you a few more years of trouble free use 👍

[@antonyjharper31]

Yes it’s his rules but you need the rules to be reasonable!

[@Fe_lix]

It's not the US, it's Europe. He can makes camp rules as long as they follow law but can't make up rules as he wants and how he wants. And rules had to be available for read at the time they booked their spot. Would have had a good laugh watching him trying to forcibly evict them and their truck if they decided to not move. Not even talking if they had renew their camp reservation on the app with automatic validation 😆

[@Totally3media66]

Something else you could use to save batteries which is a different option than a solar charger to your vehicle batteries. Could use a battery auto power remote disconnect which means you can isolate battery connection without disconnecting them and therefore avoid any drain on the batteries x

[@rchwha]

Why didn't you just move like he asked you too. You don't own the land and therefore don't have the right to refuse.

[@karenhodgson1413]

They did move and he still threw them out.

It's not the US, stop this blattering that a owner can do absolutely whatever he wants on his land, you can refuse what he asks.

[@London2Turin]

Glad you got the new batteries in without any major issue. I wrenched my back removing my old solar batteries (5 x 55kg) so could feel your pain. I had a visit by the Swiss police one morning. It took them about 20 minutes of discussion and phone calls, but everything was okay in the end. Having a larger rig does present issues, but it does make travelling more exciting sometimes!

Unfortunately the land owner wins, as it is his rules. When the landowner says time to go, it is time to go!

[@marksapollo]

Exactly, and I have to say that is a large truck that is too big.

[@ajohnson2381]

His land his rules, you are significantly larger than other vehicles if you are really honest. Better to just find another place to park not worth upsetting you all.

[@Touringwiththekids]

Yeah we get that. But, we weren't actually in anyone's way. We were parked well within the bay just like the rest of the motorhomes. He was fine with us the first 2 nights, just got his knickers in a twist on the last day 👍

@@davidmatthews3093 I have a place in the south of Spain. The "local" German men who have taken up residence appear to have no interest in local culture and their most used word seems to be verboten.

[@sifromearth]

Thanks for yet another great video post. I toured France every year in a caravan as a child with my parents/brother and other family every year for 6 weeks in the school holidays and loved it so very much. We spent alot of time in Eastern France close to where you stayed (in a place called Champagnole). It was a pay site with swimming pools and lots of tourist amenities so not quite what you do - but none the less a really great area within easy reach of Geneva and Chamonix etc just over the border. Sorry to hear about your bad experience in Germany with the eviction - but hey ho these things happen. Glad you got the new batteries as will cut down on the uncertainty and stress. The cable car was awesome - I am the same as Caira as it freaks me, but the end result up at the top is so worth it! Finally, Happy birthday Jack! All keep enjoying life as you deserve it :-)

[@Touringwiththekids]

[@ulrikezachmann7596]

I know where Tuttlingen is . I was born not too far away from there. And yes south west Germany can get really warm in Summer. It doesn’t get too cold even in winter. The climate is quite moderate and it has to be very cold before it snows and when it does it is only a light cover. Once you get high up in Switzerland it will be different. Up north and east Germany it is much colder. Never mind about the old grouch who kicked you out of that allotment. Those type of people are not that common. Generally people are very hospitable down south and very curious and friendly to visitors.

Thankyou so much ☺️

Awesome ❤❤

Oh wow just stumbled on your vlog & thought ooh I’ve seen that lorry. I was arriving at Wank as you were leaving. I managed to do all 3 cable car regions but I only pay for just one of me & it was still a lot. For 5 of you you’d need a mortgage 🤣🤑 look forward to following your travels.

[@Touringwiththekids]

Ahh that’s pretty cool! Doing all 3 must have been epic, but yeah we’d definitely need a mortgage haha 😝 thanks for following x

[@daseteam]

Happy birthday Jack!! Wank(en) means sway or totter. What the cable car would have done. :)

[@hanshartfiel6394]

No, wank is most likely a local dialect. What you mean with swaying would be "wankeln"

[@stevecompton7197]

Happy birthday Jack hope you had a great day

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thankyou, much appreciated 🎂

[@les.6343]

Happy birthday Jack. I think you made a mistake and argued having run campsites arguing is a no no if you had just moved you would have still been there. Point I am making is one should not argue with the owner.

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thankyou 🎂 We did move up as much as we could 👍

[@adrianwestwood550]

We must have just missed you, we was at landsberg on Monday night!! Enjoy 👍👍

[@Touringwiththekids]

Ah no way! It's such a beautiful place isn't it!

[@adrianwestwood550]

@@Touringwiththekids yes it is, there’s better places down there though, we were coming up from Mittenwald via Garmisch to landsberg then Nordlingen then Rothenburg!! Now home😤 Oh Happy Birthday jack👍 Ady and Val (who gave you some milk for a cuppa at Newark)😉👍

[@Touringwiththekids]

We remember you!!! Hope you had a great trip out here! Might bump into you at some shows again next year ☺️ We'll try and remember our milk next time though 😂

[@christikapa3856]

Love the scenes in Southern Germany!❤

[@Touringwiththekids]

It’s such a beautiful area 😍

Guys Tom and Izy Lost in transit from uk there earlier this year at Wankhause 😏😂so funny but beautifull countryside great videos.Im a mechanic releived to see you finally got batteries was worried voltage surges would cause E.C.U. damage to lorry bud.Love your vlogs great familly all the best 👍👍👍

[@Touringwiththekids]

Great comment, thankyou! Glad you enjoy the videos ☺️

[@barrybarry6592]

Absolutely correct he is the owner, his rules. I believe you may find similar objections at private sites with a larger than normal conversions.

[@Touringwiththekids]

1 year down, and this is the only objection we have come across 👍

Can you not disconnect the negative lead off the batteries while parked up? Know it's a faff, but at least they won't discharge while parked up.

[@Touringwiththekids]

This is what I'm doing until back in the UK and can install an isolation switch 👍

[@duncancremin1708]

A lot of places have a problem with vehicles overhanging their pedestrian areas. I wonder could that have been the problem? The barriers in the Air are a strong clue, but in places where there are no barriers, it can still be a No-No. Regarding the batteries, as long as they physically fit in the tray, a larger capacity is not a problem. Very important that they both have the same capacity, so always replace them as a pair. Keep a note of the original capacity, because you must never go lower than that. The original capacity should be regarded as the minimum spec. Anything larger is an upgrade. A crude, but useful, check you can do regularly, is to check the battery volts. The two batteries should be the same voltage, with practically no difference. That means if the total bank measures 26v, each individual battery should be 13v. If they’re starting to go out of balance, you need to find out why.

[@Touringwiththekids]

I don't think so, we weren't actually overhanging any pedestrian area and we are always cautious not to park in anybody's way. We were in the bay a metre each side and if he doesn't like people parking in that bay because it's near the service area, he really shouldn't have a bay there.

[@Touringwiththekids]

Thanks for the tips r.e. the batteries 🔋

All these cable cars and train routes are so worth the money, also in Switzerland. It may seem like a lot of money but the experience is impossible to value in money! See Jungfraujoch in Switzerland by train from Interlaken area, so expensive but years later and still one of the best things I did, even though I went to China and Australia afterwards!

[@Touringwiththekids]

Very true, we would love to do that one in Switzerland. It does look amazing!

Remember you can get things delivered to lockers which are located all over the continent, very often at supermarkets, petrol stations and odd locations everywhere. I dont have the big truck but i do have a starter pack which will start a van from completely dead to start in about 5 minutes. Its saved me a couple of times. Donyou not have breakdown cover? Green flag or similar?

[@jasonpocklington9217]

It sounds like your alternator is on the fritz so keep watching out for your batteries👍
