I would fill my tanks as they get empty. Shortages taught me to never run completely out of anything necessary to life.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

That is a good policy to have! We try to keep our fresh tank at least 1/3 full in case an RV park loses water, etc. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@danielellington8407]

Take me to your leader! lol. That was a pretty good sized rattlesnake! Glad y’all are friends with the people I follow. Chasing our sunshine and The Border hookups! Three great channels meet . Stay Safe and Stany warm y’all.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

LOL 😂 Thanks so much! We really like hanging out with Chasing Our Sunshine and The Border Hookups too! They are some amazing people! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@dingobooty]

full timer here. you guys look like you are genuinely having a good time out there. good going you two. safe travels!!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thank you so much! We are really loving the full time RV Life! Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@ChasingOurSunshine]

Just love you guys and we were laughing a lot! The hike was so amazing & the best was all the time we spent with friends!! Miss you guys!!! Thanks for putting up with us Boondocking newbies!!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We love y'all too and had so much fun hiking with friends! We loved having y'all boondock with us and can't wait until the next time! Thanks for watching y'all! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@kevinherm3036]

When going to water, cattle usually go down an established trail as they have one goal in mind...get to water, so they follow each other. There aren't as many hazards (holes and rattle snakes can be seen easier) on the trail and they seem to travel faster too. When grazing, they disburse more and move slowly so gopher/praire dog holes aren't so much of a concern. Pronghorn antelope aren't much for the trail like cattle are...they are constantly moving/grazing, usually into the wind so that they can smell any predators in the area and change course as needed.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for sharing that information with us! We love seeing all the animals go by! Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@RVAmerica]

You met up with some of our favorite people! Looks like everyone had a great time. Other than Cracker Barrel, we have never done true boondocking. Maybe soon. Lynn and Danny

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We love hanging out with Chasing Our Sunshine and The Border Hookups! They are some amazing people! We would love to boondock with y'all! Just let us know when! 😀 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@CherishtheJourneyy]

For us with the propane, when one tank gets completely empty, it’ll automatically go over to the next tank and then I will go out and refill the empty one, so I never run out!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves to hear that about the propane! :-) Thanks for watching y'all! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Lauren-vd4qe]

YES those are pronghorns; North Americas FASTEST land animal!! 65mph!!! ive seen plenty of them in montana, but i had no idea they went as far south as arizona, i guess they go there in the winter, less snow, more grass to eat, makes sense. the antelope snowbirds!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We like that name for them, "The Antelope Snowbirds" 😀 We just love seeing them too! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@andyrussell6789]

Yes sir, have both LP tank's full because you never know what lie's ahead.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

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

[@DougBidniak]

Great video. Always enjoy watching your videos.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Awe! Thank you so much! We really appreciate you and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@UncleBildo]

Got to experience the water pressure regulator need this past year, myself. Park had SERIOUS water pressure, we unknowingly cranked that mutha on up. Luckily the part that broke was the kitchen faucet, not the valve, but the out spigot fragged out, was spraying 180 degrees. The rest of the plumbing was fine. Water pressure regulator and 50 amp circuit checker/surge protector, and a few other things are waiting to go into the RV this year. Can't wait til the weather warms a bit more. High deserts of Eastern Washington have been warm this year, but will still be a while til it's RV'n and boating weather for me.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Oh wow! We are sorry that happened to you! Glad y'all did not have that much damage! Thanks for sharing your story with us and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@spiderfingersmccoy]

We love hearing from you! Safe travels.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thank you so much and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@nyrken]

low pressure is also a concern because you need enough pressure to turn off the toilet valve. If the pressure is too low your valve will run and the toilet will overflow

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

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

[@TheDesertdawg1]

Arizona has the most diverse terrain of any state in the nation. From just above sea level in Yuma to 21 mountains over 10,000 feet. The tallest at 13,995.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We agree and have had so much fun exploring Arizona! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@SuperSushidog]

When we run into low water pressure, we just run our 55psi water pump, using the water in our tank. Just fill your fresh tank when you arrive, and you're set, just like boondocking. We have a large, 25-gallon ASME propane tank mounted in our motorhome that we can't take to get filled without moving our motorhome. To remedy this we got an Extend-a-stay kit that allows us to use the 5-gallon portable DOT tanks that we can throw in our toad and take to town to get filled or just swapped out in an emergency. It's good to have at least a partial tank in reserve so you can still run your fridge while going to get a refill. We're in AZ too, moochdocking with friends in Yuma right now, expanding our solar system to over 5,000 watts, with 23.5 kwh of batteries onboard. It's a little cooler here today. I'm surprised that rattler was active in this cool weather. Take care. Hope to see you down the road.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We have also just filled our fresh water tank when the pressure is just to low at the spigot. That is a great idea! Thanks for sharing your experience with propane in a motorhome. That sounds like an impressive solar system! We hope the install goes well! We hope to see y'all on the road some day too! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@californiahikingadventures2249]

Pronghorn are specific species of antelope.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for the info! We just love seeing them! Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@titaniumhen]

I take my propane to get refilled as soon as it is empty. I also do not open both valves, I run one tank until it goes empty.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves hearing that too! 😀 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@catherinedunahee6787]

So cool seeing the Antelopes

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We thought so too! We really love seeing them! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jimblair2692]

I am the same with propane. Only one tank on and I have Lippert monitors so if I know one is really low before nighttime I’ll switch over so, we won’t wake up freezing. But then go the next day and get the propane refilled.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves to hear that about the propane! 😀 Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@sweettphillips1384]

because the lead cow knows where she is going😅

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

LOL 😂 Good answer! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@crossroadsrvtravels]

Awesome boondock camp! So FUNNY I was just watching Joel and Deb in New Mexico and they pop up on your channel, how cool!! Safe Travels!!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

It is an amazing place to boondock! So beautiful! That is so awesome about Joel and Deb! They are some of our favorite peeps! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@bethprice9702]

Loved it when you scaled the rocks and someone said, yeah ya gotta climb it and I'll film the whole thing! Sounded just like my husband! LOL

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

LOL 😂 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@TheBorderHookups]

You guys gave me too much credit for helping with directions on the hike. ☺️ Yes, Matthew absolutely did take the initiative…the rest of us were too lazy to make the effort!! 😂 So, kudos to you!!!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We might still be on the trail if it were not for your short cut though, LOL 😂 It was so much fun hiking with y'all and we HAVE to do it again! Thanks for watching y'all! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@LifeAfterKidsjourneyunknown]

Beautiful spot guys! Sorry we missed eachother at Q🌺🤙🏽

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Hopefully we will see each other next time! 😀 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

My fav RV channel!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Awe! Thank you so much! 😊💕 Thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@johnsanford4569]

I do the same with my propane. Tank #2 is off and only used as backup until i get #1 filled again.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves hearing that too! 😀 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@CampingTherapy]

That was a beautiful hike for sure.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We thought so too! Arizona is a really beautiful state! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@adonaicooper8921]

You guys are awesome thank you for sharing. Me and my lady are definitely interested in the lifestyle. Hopefully we can hang out sometimes.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Awe, thanks so much! We would love to hang out with y'all on the road someday! This lifestyle is pretty amazing too! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@melodygrandinetti5016]

I was thinking with water pressure like that maybe fill up your fresh tank and use the pump

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We agree and we have had to do that before as well. Thankfully the water pressure creeped up enough to where we could get things done. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@JarheadAndGingersJourney]

Hey friends! It's awesome to see you all hanging out together. Maybe one day we can join in on some hikes together.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We would love to go on a hike with y'all too! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@thewanderingshores]

We loved our stay at Empire Ranch, glad you got to see a rattlesnake we did too when we were there. I have been saying all along that getting lost hiking was not just us on the SHOREs 8) I do recall someone with BDR in their name saying "lets just to wonder around the desert in that direction". You guys are awesome as always we enjoy your videos.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We hope to go back to Empire Ranch! Such a beautiful area to boondock in too! We remember that y'all had seen a rattlesnake there as well! It seems like a lot of KZbinrs get lost but it makes for better video, LOL 😂 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Mathew

[@campinwiththeconfers]

That’s pretty cool you the pronghorn and cattle kept roaming through your site. And Matthew is not alone on the propane deal, I do the same thing. Never heard of frog watching. Lol. We were in southern AZ in November and did some beautiful hikes in the Huachuca Mountains. We would not be good hiking partners because we get lost a lot. You can’t always trust All Trails either. Nice to see The Border Hookup and Chasing Our Sunshine too! I didn’t know you guys knew each other. Safe travels! - Mike and Shelley

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves to hear that about the propane! 😀 We have discovered that about All Trails. We love hiking though! It is so much fun, even when getting lost, LOL 😂 And it is fun hiking with friends too! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@bethprice9702]

Ya'll had phones and cameras. You don't need flashlights for the dark!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Right! We keep forgetting that our phones work as flashlights too! LOL 😂Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Terry-JoWhitehead]

One tank at a time most of the time. I have opened both tanks and then fill both. Looks like y’all had a great time!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves to hear that about the propane! 😀 We had a lot of fun! We need to go hiking with y'all someday! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@dontwantnospam]

Fill up the water tank and run your pump. As long as the pump runs, you'll have the pressure you need.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We agree and have done that before. Thankfully the water pressure got a little better to do the things we needed done. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@my460pjb]

Awesome

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thank you and thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jeremyj612]

I'm with Matthew on the propane. My view on most things: two is one, one is none!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves to hear that too! 😀 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@777Smity]

No I get the one propane tank filled as I use the other.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

[@backcountryboondockers]

We have 6 tanks of propane. We only boondock

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Wow! Y'all should always be well stocked, especially on those really cold days! Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching too! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jeffsteele1295]

Great video and I got to see other youtuber's that I have also been watching for a long time. Thanks so much for sharing your video with us. Donna and I are now in Mesa and next week will be in Casa Grande. What a long drive we did like 18 hours one day and 12 hours the next day. So do not plan to do this ever again lol. Never say never is what they say but for me its still never again. I had to replace a fuel filter on the road so cost me only $26.90 for total breakdown repair cost .

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We have heard a lot of people talking about Mesa and Casa Grande! Hope y'all have a nice time there! We hear you about those long travel days. We have to do very long travel days every once in awhile too! That is not a bad price for repair cost! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jeffsteele1295]

We are wanting to upgrade our motorhome to lithium batteries. We started with a TT membership but think we would like BLM more . @@BrokenDreamsReborn

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

@@jeffsteele1295 We also had a TT 1-year pass that we got when we purchased our RV and also decided to use the money for solar since we like boondocking a whole lot more! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@jeffsteele1295]

did you loose any money getting rid of you TT membership or make any money ?@@BrokenDreamsReborn

[@amaliefedor2793]

I am the same on the propane 😅

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Matthew loves to hear that! LOL 😂 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@janicecrockett1400]

They tack on the word resort and raise the rates.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

And that is what they did. Their rates doubled from a year ago from what we have been told! Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@SomeTechGuy666]

I've been RVing for 25 years and have never used a regulator. Never had a problem. Your "pipes" will not blow up at 70PSI. RVs are plumbed with PEX, just like your house, which is rated for 160 PSI. If you are worried about low pressure, run from water into your fresh tank and run your RV pump.

[@SuperSushidog]

I always use a pressure regulator, but I once attached my Clear2-O water filter to the spigot, before the regulator. Unfortunately, the campground's water pressure was 90 psi causing my pre-filter to rupture with a bang, spraying water everywhere. I won't make that mistake again.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

You should always use a water pressure regulator according to the manufacturer's specifications because if water pressure is too high in an RV it will cause leaks. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

That has happened to our Clear2-O water filter as well. So now we always use the water pressure regulator before the filter. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@CherishtheJourneyy]

The pex hoses may be rated for 160psi but that is rated at 73 degrees! That being said most RV parks won’t be outputting that much PSI. While all RVs are not made the same a lot of RVs are not all plumbed with pex and I would say most have a combination of flexible and pex lines and most common failure is at the T junctions where I have seen the wrong crimps on the flexible hose versus a screw on hose clamp for more secure fit.

[@SomeTechGuy666]

@@BrokenDreamsReborn I've never seen an RV manufacturer recommend a pressure regulator. If RVs needed a pressure regulator, RV manufacturers would put one in. KZbin is filled with videos about RV failures. Please show me a single video about someone blowing up their water system from too much pressure. It won't happen because the plumbing that delivers the water to the RV probably has a lower pressure rating than the RV itself.

[@tm8747]

one thing is hiking but then there always FISHING, I WATCH VIDEOS AND NOBODY FISHES IN THE RIVERS STREAMS AND LAKES WHY? now your cup of tea????

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We have both fished before but we have not had the time to do it since we have been on the road as full time RVers. We also don't have fishing equipment and we think each state has its own fishing license requirements. Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@Bunkysworkshop]

What is a good setting for the water pressure regulator? I think I have mine set at 40. As for the propane I do the same thing when empty fill it.

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We try to keep ours around 50 but you should check with your manufacturer just to be sure what is safe for your specific RV model. Matthew loves to hear that about the propane! 😀 Thanks for watching! ~ Shion and Matthew

[@athomewithjenny]

Do you have to worry about Scorpions there?
