Yes, those are Embraer Regional Jets. American Eagle is comprised at 6 regional operators under the American Eagle name. Some of those is the videos are also Bombardier CRJs. Due to operating cost the airlines have parked a good portion of their regional fleets in favor of newer regional planes such as the Embraer-175 jets. Those in the video can return to active status if needed. Also, you pay more for a Honda generator, however, they are worth the money.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing that info with us about the planes! We really enjoyed seeing them and learning more about what we saw! Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

Woodpeckers make those holes in the saguaro cacti. After the holes heal the Woodpeckers and Elf Owls use the holes for nesting.

Pnnales airpark is a museum and there is also a graveyard for airplanes where they salvage them, We’ve delivered to the salvage yard a couple times

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Oh nice! Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! 😁 ~ Shion and Matthew

[@doublediamondrailroad5949]

Awesome news on the Honda Genny! Told you they were quiet! 😊When I would travel to RC Flying Events, most of the guys would have them at their Tents for Charging Batteries. 😊

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thank you! We are really happy that we were able to get a Honda as we have kept hearing how reliable they are! Thanks so much for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@debjukes5548]

They are planes that are owned by American Airlines. I’m not sure why they’re all parked though. And it is birds that make holes in the cacti.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Roger30303030]

Yes. Honda 🎉🎉 worth every bit of the money you will never go wrong so quiet. Good job I’m proud of you.

[@CampingTherapy]

I was solo camping at a KOA once, and a guy and his son were staying in a rustic cabin. They brought me over some salmon that they had cooked over the fire, on a cedar plank, wrapped in foil. It was good! Camping people are usually good people.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

That is so awesome! We love hearing stories like this! Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jherrera926]

It has been so neat seeing you visit areas we are familiar with. Picacho Arizona is beautiful. For those interested in history, the Battle of Picacho Peak marked the westernmost battle of the American Civil War.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We had a great time and would love to spend more time there! Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@cindylehman1016]

In Oregon and Washington states it’s les Schwab tires they are awesome. They guarantee everything that they do and they rotate your tires for free. They fill them whatever you need. I stop at my local Les Schwab every time before I leave town with my trailer and all the Les Schwab stores are connected up to your account so you can go to one of them and they can go right to your account.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@CherishtheJourneyy]

All the state parks in AZ fill up in the fall, winter & Spring time. The place with all the planes is called the Bone Yard where all retired planes go!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

SUGGESTION; WEST OF YOUR LOCATION IS A TOWN CALLED AJO. NICE BOONDOCKING IN THE HILLS WEST OF TOWN. AND ORGAN PIPE NAT'L MONUMENT IS NEARBY.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Premier-Media-Group]

When we deal with low pressure hook-ups, we just fill the fresh tank and use the water pump (usually higher pressure) for showers at least.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Good idea! We have done that before too. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@sunshinervtravlers57]

How awesome, happy 3 years, To funny we were at Lazydays Tampa 3 years ago in April, stayed in the shake down lot, then a week in there campground across the street. Happy camping 😎🚍

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Oh how awesome! We saw that campground too. We wound up staying at an RV park down the road for a week after our shakedown. What type of RV did y'all get? Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@sunshinervtravlers57]

@@BrokenDreamsReborn we bought a 38' 2021 Montana 331RL High County fifth wheel. We love it.

Discount Tire isn’t the cheapest place but it IS NATION WIDE & great service

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We like that they are Nation Wide. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Patty747]

LOL, I just flew on an American Eagle plane in March of this year. They're what we call a puddle hopper. They go a short distance to make a connection from a larger airport to a smaller one. In our case, it was from Charlotte NC to New Bern NC.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Oh cool! Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@LawrenceTuckerFyretuck]

When using two different metals, steel and aluminum, use an anti-galvanic corrosion lube.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Roger30303030]

Omg. Have to see the planes I go through there all the time. I did not know where that was at. Thank you so much. Travel safe.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

It was so fun to see the planes! Hope you get to see them one day too! It was west of Tucson! 😁 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@KoriandJack]

I agree you guys are good creepers! 🤣 Nothing wrong with making sure your vehicle (your property) is being respected. Continued prayers to you all!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Lol 😂 Thanks so much and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@justaman2363]

They call it swelling but the lug is actually 2 pieces steel with a cheap metal cap. Then they become separated. They are junk. Always replace with solid ones.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@titaniumhen]

Happy 3 year anniversary on the road. Shion, I hope you find a good replacement job. I like your new generator. (I learned something from an old man about 40 years ago he said, "Why spend $1 ten times when you can spend $10 one time" Meaning "Buy quality items the first time" I do not stand around and watch them work on my truck, I go for a walk. Matthew, tires only go flat on the bottom. In the summer of 2023, we were in McCloud Calif., I got a flat tire so I put the spare on. I looked in the small town but there were no tire shops. I did find (Online) a mobile tire guy - he did not return my 3 phone calls in one day. I finally went to the RV park office and they said to go (Some place) in Shasta City, they should be able to help. I called and they said "Bring it in" So I drove the 30 miles to this tire shop. The guy said that he could not fix the tire and wanted to sell me 4 new tires. He told me the cost and I just about had a hear attack. I asked if I could buy just one tire until I get home and they said okay. They put one new tire on (It was not the same brand - I run Goodyears), then he handed me a bill for $400. I guess the knew that I had no choice and took advantage of me. I recommend this place because they were able to get me fixed up, but why did they have to ruin a good thing by charging me 2x the normal cost of one tire? Happy travels

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thank you! 😁 Oh Wow! Thanks for sharing your tire story with us! That's crazy about how much they charged for 1 tire! 😳 Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@ThreeLeggedJourney]

Congratulations on the Honda, you will not regret the purchase. Not sure if you read the manual but try it in eco mode. It will idle when low loads and pick up to full throttle when heavy loads are added. Saves a lot of fuel and is quieter.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jeffwhite3612]

I flew on American Eagle from Dallas to Odesa dodging thunder storms. 3 seats wide inside. 1 on the left and 2 on the right side.

[@cathyabbate5356]

Discount tries are number 1 go to for us. But we have had good service with Les Schwab also. Oh ya one of us is a creeper for sure! So you are not alone.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Glad to know we are not the only creepers out there! 😁 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@karenwalter441]

Pima Air and Space Museum, in Tucson, AZ. It’s a must see. Acres and acres of retired planes, many could come out of retirement if needed.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Oh that sounds awesome! We will have to check that out next time we are in the area! Thanks for sharing that info with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@kellyyoung124]

Just an FYI on the ford (and other auto makers) aluminum clad lug nuts, “swelling” The common cause of this is from applying excessive force with the wrong size or worn out sockets. The other reason could be from galvanic corrosion (Dissimilar metals touching in a moist environment). Heat doesn’t really factor into this.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@RVingwithLuck]

Discount Tire is the best!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We have really had a good experience each time we have been to Discount Tire too!

[@aaronhendrickson]

On the generator question, California passed a law that the state can not sell portable gas generators. You can buy a propane one. Any gas powered item. If you stand be hind and it get light headed. Don't use it.

Nice, yes, they are a little bit more money the Hondas, but they are very nice generators. Yes and I do like discount tire and I have used them several times saying that, American tire is the same just different name. I have used Les Schwab. They all do a good job and I stand at the door of the bay and watch.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We are very happy that we were able to get the Honda too because we have heard over and over again how reliable they are and we really wanted something that was reliable! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@kenkaplan4413]

Your old generator probably just has dirt in the carb. Your Honda will have the same problem if you don't filter it through a 10-micron filter. I don't have any experience with Champion generators but I have heard good things about them. I was a Yamaha generator dealer for 22 years and the only issue I have seen is dirty carbs.

[@RVMD95]

Did you change the oil on the Champion? Make sure you change the oil on the Honda as per the manual! Super important! I think they want you to change the oil after the first 10 hours and then every 100 hours after that. If you neglect changing the oil any generator will fail way before it should. Keep that big red Honda out of sight. It’s a big come and steal me sign. I think the Honda is the most stolen generator out there. Good luck!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We serviced the champion oil appropriately and we do plan on keeping the Honda out of sight when we are not using it! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

A shame that Honda generators are price controlled by Honda. Absolutely prohibit discounting below like $999. I have a Firman which I got on sale at Costco for less than 1/2 the cost of Honda. Not for sale in California because California has stricter emission controls and they req

Good choice on the Honda generator........but I'm curious, why didn't you choose a solar generator like Bluetti or Eco Flow?? Especially with all the solar that you have on the roof to recharge it. Just my thoughts. ???
