SOLD OUR RV! Why? Our Moving Experience + A Tribute to Rocky | Full-time RV Life

[@georgemulligan8958]

I spent 4 years sailing the Seas of course I was a bit younger and now rving fits me a bunch better but I will never forget there's something spiritual about the ocean and every time I get into the water I feel younger

[@Rvlove]

That is awesome George... Yes having grown up in the Colorado Mountains, Marc is a mountain man... but the ocean has a special kind of magic about it.... we love the ocean, just don't want to live on it! LOL

[@LilyGazou]

George Mulligan I’ve read so much about the sailing life but realized I know too little to ever try it. I worked as a cook on a boat for awhile- not the same.

[@rvdreamin836]

so glad I got to visit and share a meal in Rocky.

[@Rvlove]

Great to have you over Vin

[@scotthelmann5156]

I have a 28’ Tiffin Breeze (2012) diesel pusher which provides me with much of what you are talking about. 4 LiFePO batteries (power equivalent to 6-8 golf cart batteries), 70 gal water, 1000+ watts of solar on the roof keeps me boondocking until I run out of water and it easily fits in the tightest of National and State Park campsites (fits in most 23’ sites). Full tanks and fully loaded I still have another 3800 lbs of additional weight I can carry and towing a Honda CRV (4 down) shortens my overall length and gets rid of the need for storing a tow dolly. Good luck on your hunt!

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Scott! Glad to hear you are happy with your Breeze!

[@claytoncomeaux7653]

We thought we wouldn't cry, we were wrong. The End part was a tear jerker.

[@Rvlove]

Awwwww - us too! thanks for sharing!

[@lukelacroix7921]

What a lovely couple you are! I’ve just joined you with the selling of your beloved Rocky! Excited to see what you finally choose!

[@Rvlove]

Thank you and welcome.

[@johntaheri]

Good luck guys I enjoyed your videos thank you to take your time making videos .

[@Rvlove]

Thank you John, yes they can take a lot of time for sure - but glad you enjoy them!

[@Jim.Hummel]

I'm still in shock even though the hints were getting obvious...End of an era & the beginning of another!!

[@Rvlove]

Hahahaaa sure is Jim!

[@lorihines3990]

Best of luck finding the new one hope all turns well

[@Rvlove]

Thank you. already have the new one and love it. See the more recent videos.

[@srameypr]

I was not attached to your rig ... but that last scene of it driving away got to me.

[@Rvlove]

Awwww it's definitely an emotional journey... seeing it drive off like that....

[@TeachandTugTravels]

Sorry to see Rocky go. It was a great looking rig. We can't wait to see what you get next.

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Tom! Yes Rocky really was a great looking rig...

[@Tothefloor]

We upgraded from a 2017 Tiffin gas 32SA to a Tiffin Phaeton 40IH Diesel pusher that’s 41 feet long. We have never looked back. Much much happier. :)

[@Rvlove]

Big step up - nice! Good for you guys! Very happy for you :)

[@roydavis2242]

I just was sharing with our daughter that our Diesel Pusher allows us to add around 9000 lbs cargo capacity. That is a lot of additional weight but it is a 45 ft unit so it doesn't fit every where. .

[@Rvlove]

Yes, big tag axle diesel pushers have massive capacities. I have seen some with over 12,000 lb cargo capacity, but definitely a little more limiting on places they fit. Every RV has it's pros and cons. It all comes down to which pros have the greatest benefits to the owner at the time. Love the way those big tag coaches drive. So smooth and planted.

[@SagudayProsperityMagnet]

Can you please make videos comparing the slide mechanism between Newmar, Tiffin, Winnebago, and also advantages/disadvantages between the slide motors/ mechanisms they have since you have experience from touring RV manufacturers. Thanks.

[@Rvlove]

Thank you for the suggestion. This would be a very complicated video to produce, but we might consider it sometime down the road. Also worth mentioning that many slide mechanisms are not unique to brand. Most RV manufacturers use slide mechanisms from the same external companies, not built in house. Newell and Foretravel being noteworthy exceptions. Newmar also uses a special system not used on other brands yet, but it is still created by external company.

[@SagudayProsperityMagnet]

Thank you. It would help a lot of RV customers decide and see the difference.

[@gardeneyes1]

Hopefully you will consider an RV made for off road travel like the Outdoors RV. High ground clearance and upgraded suspension for those remote locations. We pick ours up this week from the dealer and can’t wait!

[@foretravelman67]

When we purchased our first full-time RV, we purchased from a private owner. It does make a difference. We still had our house, so when we came home, we transferred from home to RV right on our property, which was a blessing in itself. When we sold, we sold to a private buyer as well. Now, we are getting ready to hit the road again and have our new full-time rig parked next to our home, going through the same process again! Fun, fun!

[@Rvlove]

Oh that was convenient! Yes buying from a private party has it's advantages for sure. Good luck hitting the road again!

[@myrarega8312]

Congratulations on selling Rocky even though it is bittersweet. I am excited to see where the next chapter takes you and share your stories. You have been such an inspiration and teacher in our jump into the RV lifestyle as well as many others. We share your joy and look forward to see what is your next RV. My guess is you will go with a bigger diesel pusher; maybe a Newmar. Whatever it is I know it will be spectacular!! Best of luck with your next journey!

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Myra! All will be revealed later today!

[@gruivis]

Congratulations guys! I know it was bittersweet.

[@Rvlove]

Yup... but no regrets

[@HometimeRE]

We have just installed a 1020 watt lithium solar system in our coach. only have two 300 amp lithium batteries. 6 panels on roof. Should work for long periods of boondocking, we hope. Brian & Patty from Oregon

[@Rvlove]

That sounds like a nice set up for boondocking. Residential fridges can use a lot of juice overnight, but as long as you aren't using a lot of other power after the sun goes down, or if you have a super efficient fridge, I imagine you will be in pretty good shape.

[@HometimeRE]

the older breezes do not have residential fridges. we do need more fridge space so are going to purchase a dometic chest fridge/freezer with a slide out that we can put in the bay. hope it fits! we will be anxiously waiting to see what you purchased! you guys have really inspired us to go full time!

[@williamrizzo1285]

Great video, I love the last shot from the old seven mile bridge I know it well as I've lived in Marathon in the keys for 36 years.

[@Rvlove]

Oh yes we loved that footage at the end too! Such a beautiful sight to see.

[@steveharkins279]

Awww, such sweet sorrow, Rocky is a good rig, just a lot of storage for 22K F53 chassis. Altho, my spring shop could beef that F53 up to 28K. The Rear, Rims,brakes, tires could all take it to 28K. 4 more springs on the back, 2 more in the front, and sumos all the way around. Sticking with my original guess? 36 Tiffin Red QBH. lost that tab since last time. Off to "The Big four" in Alabama I bet you are. Look out for the heat.

[@Rvlove]

Haha good to know how much an F53 can be beefed up! Thanks for sharing! No plans for Alabama :)

[@steveharkins279]

Yea, the only limitation is the weight rating of the rear, the rims tires and brakes are all the same. Some F53's can go to 30K with the right rear, you do that it rides like it is on rails. No dipping, no sway, no tilt, just flat and straight. Also pick up about 20% better braking, as the entire rig stays flat while stopping. Learned all this from my spring shop, www.autoandtrucksprings.com/ Took my E350 to an E450, that worked so well, took the C from an E450 to an E550. No Alabama,,,, what you got going on you sly fox?

[@billlong5979]

Tiffen owners are loyal and for good reason from the owners I have talked to. Marc said something about battery weight which means roof space too. With a big battery bank, you need a large solar array. Marc and Julie are even more involved in the RV Nomad community and in that community there is a push for manufacturers to produce a Dry Camping capable rig. In previous videos about the Mini and the Jeep they mentioned they were both performance car addicts. They and Road Gear Reviews both get things to test and review My guess is that Tiffen has developed a prototype coach for them to try, live in, test and review. It may be Newmar if RV Geeks are involved. Either that or they are going to build a school bus conversion.

[@Rvlove]

Wow Bill some pretty big guesses in there! Actually, the majority of items we review on RGR are things we bought ourselves, occasionally we are sent items for review. Sorry to tell you but definitely no Tiffin (or Newmar) prototype coach... Tiffin doesn't even return our phone calls or emails - to be honest, we're not even sure if they are aware of our channel/blog. If they are, we wouldn't know it. So no, definitely no prototype coach. You'll find out later today!

[@billlong5979]

RVLove | Marc & Julie Bennett If we're going to guess, shoot for the moon.

[@richkuban2027]

I suspect your new home will be geared to slower travel boondocking more to really explore all the places you have driven by. You will be less dependent on internet connectivity, so you will be going more remote places. Glad you enjoyed Rocky and have many happy memories, but the next phase will be just as much fun and exciting. Wishing you all the best, and thank you for sharing so much. Not yet on the road, but learning so much from your adventures!

[@Rvlove]

Thank so you much!

[@daredare890]

Thank you for ALL your v logs :) i started viewing your channel because of your Tiffin. i full time in my 1986 Tiffin Allegro class a. 24.5' wonderful size for me. no slides. full maint. r&r all systems to stock or better. paint is stock that still glows. inside is stunning stock. Looking forward to fallowing your new chapter of travel.

[@Linescrew1Canada]

Dare Dare Don't be shy: buy a new Tiffin!

[@Rvlove]

That is so fantastic - good for you! Glad you still love and take such good care of your 1986 Tiffin!

[@daredare890]

Oh... it is you. I will put my Tiffin next to your crappy Class C "Any day". How do you guys say it up there? Acers eh... Well i have it. You do not have to be a ass hole every day. Do you?

[@PaddyWagonTravels]

Oh wow - I am definitely going to miss Rocky - but so happy for your RV Life evolution. There is such an emotional connection we have to our RVs and as KZbinrs - this connection extends to our viewers too. I am excited for the next video to see what RV you have selected. Time for all new logos, camera shots, lots of change. By Rocky!

[@cherylkelly946]

Hey Julie and Marc , My guess is an Airstream!!, But whatever you decide is the best rig for your needs will be just as interesting and fun to watch . Best wishes for a smooth transition,from Mildura Australia.

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Cheryl!

[@jennysroad]

I'm on the edge of my seat! I can't even decide between two TT models and I have to pick up SOMETHING this coming Friday! It's not an easy decision when you're going to be full-timing.

[@Rvlove]

No you are quite right - making a decision is NOT easy - so many factors to consider... especially when full timing. Stay tuned for tomorrow's video!

[@HometimeRE]

The new buyer got a great deal. Brand new high quality tires also. We almost purchased a 2016 open road with bath and 1/2 but decided it was too long. We went with the Tiffin Allegro Breeze 32br diesel.It only had 5000 miles on it when we purchased and still looks in brand new shape. I bet you will be getting a diesel pusher! Probably a smaller one like ours so you can take it to more areas. A newer Tiffin 31br maybe? Or a Tiffin bus. I hope you stay with a Tiffin. Can't wait, the suspense it killing us! brian & Patty from Oregon

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Brian, and congratulations on your coach. We do like Tiffin Breeze. I remember considering them when making our first purchase, saw the Australian converted ones on a recent visit to AUS, and saw the new ones at the RVIA show in Kentucky last fall. We won't keep you in suspense much longer. New intro video should be up in just a few hours.

[@joansrvadventures6112]

That was a beautiful coach and it looked like there was a ton of storage. The new buyers were lucky to get it. I look forward to how you will downsize more and how you transition into a new rig.

[@Taking_Back_Thyme]

I got a little emotional watching you close that chapter of your journey. We are just planning our next chapter which will include a minor renovation on a 5th wheel that will be stationary. Still not sure how or what our future looks like as late 60’s and retired. Mostly tired. Lots of unknowns. I do appreciate watching and learning from you and others who are so generous in sharing their lives in the road. ❤️

[@Rvlove]

Thank you. Yes, it was an emotional experience for us. Wishing you every joy in your new chapter. -M

[@jeandecker4073]

I've never driven either a diesel pusher or a Super C. Thanks for your insights.

[@kevinsigler6747]

Our Allegro is too small also. Very tough to give up. Good luck.

[@teresaw6780]

Great ending to your video. Wish you both the best.

[@Rvlove]

Thank you!

[@josephtuszynski5629]

Hello from Joe and Nancy. My guess is Grand Design Solitude 375res. Checking out for large storage

[@tracyk.8306]

Great video! That was really instructive, especially about deciding whether to trade or sell privately and how to transition when you’re swapping homes. Looking forward to the big reveal! Wishing you both all the best!

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Tracy - yes it's quite the juggle for sure as a full-timer, especially when there is financing involved!

[@opaandomascampingadventures]

Geez...I think I just teared up watching Rocky drive away. We look forward to your new adventures....

[@Vitoandolini13]

you folk did take very good care of the Rockster. I'm guessing diesel pusher.

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Jim, we like to take care of our RV :)

[@elcaminomant]

the need for increased carrying capacities can only mean going to a rig built for weight; a super C or a shorter DP

[@Rvlove]

:) Soon you will know!

[@rd4660]

It’s interesting what people want in and do in an RV. We love boondocking and hate RV parks. Over the past two years we have shed seldom used belongings and weight. Generally we don’t buy something new without throwing something else out, or donating it. Our meals have become more simple and fresh, so we have repurposed our old canned good storage areas. And the best part, we’re 100% solar and have no generator!!! Whoo hooo!

[@Rvlove]

Awesome good for you! Yes, we love both - and the fact that we have the choice to do whatever we choose. Fo course some RV parks are nice/better than others, but one of the things we enjoy about those is the amenities (like hot tub) and meeting fellow RVers - which we don't get boondocking. We stayed at one campground in Texas in December that was a one acre lot on a lake and were surrounded by 50-80 deer every afternoon! It was incredible. Luckily we can have the best of both worlds!

[@ulrikej.faidt-berisford4892]

Well done video, Thanks!

[@Pauljohn696969]

My guess.... a late model diesel pusher....,either a Tiffin Red 37a or a Newmar Vantana of similar size and floor plan. Good luck.

[@Rvlove]

These seem to be popular guesses :)

[@navalrvdream9463]

I'm very curious as to see what the next RV is, I have a feeling that it is going to be a diesel for better towing, shorter RV for working together. I'm guessing a small class C diesel mercedes RV or a short 32ft. class A diesel RV. Cant wait to see next video!!!!

[@Rvlove]

Coming very soon!

[@andychops]

+1 on the logistics of moving from one RV to another, especially when there's pets involved. I drove 800 miles to do my RV swap because they were the only dealer offering me what I wanted without losing my shirt. Stopped halfway to unload a bunch of stuff to self-storage. Spent a couple days "camped" in their very busy and crowded RV service lot to make the full transition. In addition I also had to find a place to trade in my tow vehicle for a heavy duty truck since I was switching from a class A to truck camper. It was a trying few days but got through it. Anyway congrats on the sale. You gave away several hints regarding weight limits for batteries, etc, so my guess it you're going class A DP, probably another Newmar, maybe a New Aire?

[@Rvlove]

Yes you get the logistics Andy - it can be a very trying time. Fortunately ours went about as smoothly as anyone could ever imagine. We had spent weeks before trying to wrap our heads around how we were going to logistically navigate a sale/purchase when financing was involved. It literally gave me (Julie) a headache so I said you know what, let's just decide it's going to be EASY and see what happens, and voila, soon after - it was! All will be revealed tomorrow :)

[@MyPettawayLife]

Thanks for this video & how helpful you guys where to the new owners

[@Rvlove]

Yes we enjoyed spending time with them! Great people. We remember how overwhelming it is to be a newbie with so much to learn and wanted to make sure they were OK.

[@davepowell3001]

Congratulations guys! Wow! What a huge move! My guess is a slightly smaller Class A diesel like a Tiffin Allegro Red.

[@dianecraig6055]

Okay, I have to tell you at 10:35 when you said "Bye, Rocky", I got a little choked up... I don't even KNOW Rocky!! (I mean, aside from your videos).

[@Rvlove]

Thank you. Yes... very emotional for us too. Touched that you could feel it too. Glad you enjoyed the tips and wishing you a successful switch to your new RV.

[@adamsinwanderland4290]

Hey guys we met you as you were leaving Hart ranch in 2016 and we pulled in next to you. Looks like you are in Oregon on the hunt for a new RV. We are in Barton park near Damascus if you want to see our RV or just meet up for a drink or bite. We are kicking around the idea of selling ours as well. It is a 2007 Fleetwood Expedition 34h. We have made a few interesting mods to it that might be what your looking for in the way of dual workstations. Let us know if you want to get together as we are hosting here till the end of August. Good luck in your exciting search.

[@Rvlove]

Hi guys, we remember you and doing a tour of your RV! Not sure where Barton Park is, we are in eastern Oregon, but focused on a big project over the next 3 weeks so won't be going anywhere while we git er done! Already have our next rig, stay tuned for video later today to find out what it is! We will take a look at Google Maps and see how far you are and if we are going to be anywhere near there after mid August... Thanks for your well wishes and same to you!

[@adamsinwanderland4290]

RVLove | Marc & Julie Bennett we are excited to see what you got! Hope our paths cross soon.

[@Cdentonphr]

Loved your video!! I can see y'all in a deluxe toy hauler - whether it be a fifth wheel or bumper pull!!

[@Rvlove]

Hmmm that'd be nice!

[@adriannurse1502]

Congratulations! Can't wait to see what's coming next. ☺

[@Rvlove]

:)

[@sharonriome7198]

The two of you are absolutely awesome!!! Thanks for all of your vids.....can't wait for the next one!!!!!

[@Rvlove]

Thank you!

[@mtndreams5643]

Good for you changing things up! My vote would be for an RV that opens up more off roading opportunities for you.

[@CandaceRvingft]

Hello? Its tomorrow already and I am checking for "the news". I don't have to stay up until midnight, do I? :)

[@Rvlove]

We didn't keep you waiting too long. Just took longer than expected.

[@HometimeRE]

By the way, you guys really helped us with the Thousand Trails Membership. We have decided to go that route and i can keep working in Oregon while traveling the Coast. Since you gave it away with the weight issue, i am guessing an allegro breeze 27br or 31br. Those are the shortest and highest quality coaches at this time, in my opinion. Every one put your guess on here! Brian & Patty from Oregon

[@Rvlove]

Glad we were able to help you with TT Membership. Our membership has literally saved us thousands of dollars over the years. We love it.

[@000MACK000]

Well I have been doing a lot of reading on cargo capacity weight and all that fun stuff I'd say your best bet would be to get a fifth wheel toy hauler with 3 heavy-duty axles and 14 ply tires to maximize your cargo capacity.

[@Rvlove]

Thanks!

[@000MACK000]

RVLove | Marc & Julie Bennett and also a toy hauler if you have no toys to haul makes a great garage to store your stuff in

[@tinabeane]

Oh wow, very excited for you both. Can't wait to see what you decided to get now. Think it's pretty normal for people to switch up rigs, like you said your lifestyle has changed. Glad to hear it's not a boat ;)

[@Rvlove]

Haha yes don't think hardly anyone wanted us to get a boat LOL

[@allleygreen8093]

Go with a brighter color sceme on the kichen decore where possible.😊🎨⛱🚪Less wood on cabinets.

[@Rvlove]

Oh yes way too much brown and beige in our Tiffin, like most RVs

[@jackyoungblood8011]

Welcome back to Oregon!

[@Rvlove]

Thanks! We love it here

[@raymondschneider5217]

As emotional as it was for your viewers to watch, I can only imagine the emotions that have been running through you guys; I'm sure you've had many highs and many lows during the stages of parting with Rocky. Well, have taken a deep breath and am looking forward to see what's about to happen for you. Be safe!

[@Rvlove]

Aw Raymond, it's so touching to know this invoked emotions in you and others as well - Rocky was SUCH a big part of our lives, Rocky changed our lives! It's been an emotional journey for sure, to let go and step into something else... but we are living our new home on wheels, which we'll be sharing with you tomorrow! Thanks for your very kind words.

[@CandaceRvingft]

I know! I know! YOU wrote the "Who killed JR? episode" .... still hangin' over here :)

[@Rvlove]

LOL Thanks Candace! hehe Promise you won't have to wait too long, we're publishing it first thing tomorrow morning

[@bobshaw4063]

It was a great ending loved the great music and a awesome goodbye I must admit I was a bit sad seeing Rocky going on down the road with new owners . At the same time I was happy for the both of you . I will be looking forward to the vlog that will reveal what your next home on the road will be . I also miss seeing your mini cooper as well . Cheers mates !

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Mate!

[@bobshaw4063]

Your welcome Mate !

[@warrentavernia5136]

by the way there are a lot of Used class a motor coaches out there with low milage and and low prices so I would keep an eye out You could wind up with a top of the line coach that fits your budget

[@Rvlove]

That's exactly what we did - see latest video

[@ArbitraryExploration]

Such an exciting time. So many memories and the excited expectation of the new ones you will make. Thank you for taking us through the process! :)

[@inthemiddlesomewhere]

I’m sure you’ve answered this somewhere. But what camera gear are you using? Thanks.

[@Rvlove]

HI Mark, actually we haven't! But all of our gear is listed in the Video Description. For this one filmed by the duck pond, we used a Sony Video Camcorder: amzn.to/2Fv29hg - so far very happy with it! All other stuff (eg. tripod, windmuff, mic etc) also in the vid description. Cheers!

[@mikemckenna8530]

What's the best way to list an RV for sale in your opinion?

[@Rvlove]

Well, we often search on websites like RV Trader. Also Owner's groups and forums... some people do weel with Craig's List, Facebook Marketplace.. but to be honest, this is the first RV we have ever sold and we didn't even list it! So we can't speak from that experience, but we do spend a lot of time shopping online and RV Trader seems to have the biggest database of units.

[@mikemckenna8530]

Thanks for taking the time to respond! Love your vlogs! Good luck with your continued adventure.

[@elizabethlarose3632]

A great ending with great music and a awesome goodbye.

[@Rvlove]

Thanks! Glad you hung in there to the very end!

[@1coolnoodle222]

Your going to get a extreme off road rv????.

[@joeswishful9740]

Think it's gonna be an Airstream for you folks. I sense y'all like to get off the grid more and more and a well equipped A/S with solar will allow you more flexibility.

[@Rvlove]

:)

[@taber1969]

Bet its an expedition vehicle! Happy travels Rocky!!

[@Rvlove]

Thanks!

[@royg.greenlee2538]

I want to congratulate you two on your new adventure. I have longed to be an full time RVer all my life. I have a travel trailer that I go camping in but stay in the surrounding states to make it easy if I need to get back home for family reasons. I hope to be traveling the US as soon as I retire in 6 years. Then I hope to buy my first Motorhome. Keep up the videos and I will keep watching. I send you two good energy and safe travels from Charleston SC. 👍

[@Rvlove]

Thank you so much Roy! Keep on enjoying your camping and when the time is right, we'll see you out there!

[@averagecampers]

Congrats ! Looking forward to seeing your next adventures :)

[@semretired15]

Enjoyed your video's. Went to some of the places you traveled to just because you made your visits to nice. I think you will get a TT maybe a 30Foot like Less Junk or Vibin has.

[@jeandecker4073]

Congratulations. It would be great if you got a Renegade Verona Super C. I would love to hear and see more about them. I believe they have more towing and weight capacity then a diesel Class A, except maybe the big million dollar ones. Whatever you get I wish you much happiness.

[@Rvlove]

Thank you!

[@rebellucy5610]

Nothing rides like a diesel PUSHER. A Super C is like driving a 18 wheeler. No thanks!

[@Desertfox92308]

Exciting times! That closing music was interesting too...Middle Eastern, Spanish influences?

[@Rvlove]

Thanks - it's actually Australian - Julie's favorite band OKA let us use the music in our videos :) It's a really catchy track I've been wanting to use for a long time, this was perfect :)

[@Gr8LakesCamper]

Some gorgeous footage at the end!

[@Rvlove]

Thanks Rick! Yes we sure saw some beautiful places together :)

[@robbiesmith5169]

One journey ends and another one begins

[@Rvlove]

So true

[@geraldhenrickson7472]

I vote you get a older coach with a DT466 diesel. Difficult to locate but well worth it for the great MPG and reliability.

[@TheDUNLOP6]

Congrats on the sale!

[@NoGasWelcomeAboard]

Congrats on the sale, though I would likely have kept Rocky with some updates. Updating is always less $$. My guess is a less than 40’ non-tag vintage/classic Class A diesel pusher, big tanks, 8-10 mpg, > 1,400 watts of solar with a similar sized Ah AGM pack (big lithiums still = too big $$$), and it will be all-electric. Like Technomadia’s coach, it’s “bones” will be from a real bus without the Prevost conversion price tag and it’ll have an updated interior, like Rocky. Unlike Rocky, it will have a 500K+ mile capable DP motor and will be built out of steel & aluminum rather than wood & plastic. With boondocking plans, you’ll avoid a Super C due to their long rear overhangs and too low ground clearance; same with regular C’s. A smaller Class A or micro Class B like the Fit-RV couples Travato is possible, though not likely due to their size limitations for full-timing. However, downsizing that much has been done lots of times. It all depends on your wants, plans & dreams for the future.

[@Rvlove]

Wow. Excellent detailed guess.

[@ncylee4]

A cliffhanger!!!! I’m guessing smaller diesel pusher. I would have guessed TT, but you just got new toad. The new owners are very lucky. You have taken such great care of Rocky. Until tomorrow....❤️

[@Rvlove]

Thank you - yes tomorrow!

[@tomcornilliac]

I think you guys are going to buck the current trends and go bigger. Not only that, you're going to go older but higher quality. Perhaps a tag axel Country Coach Magna?

[@Rvlove]

Haha You know we don't like to follow the trends of what everyone else is doing or what's "in" - to be honest we don't even pay attention to that! LOL We just do what is right for us and our needs for our next phase - the big reveal is tomorrow :)

[@letswatchit126]

Congrats on your next step. And the courage to make the step. Judging from your last clips of your video I believe it's going to be a smaller unit. You guys seem to like the roads that are less traveled. My guess is it's going to be an Allegro Breeze 31,32 or 33. But what ever it is I'm looking forward to the journey though rv love.

[@joulemine]

We can't wait to start boondocking! Good luck with everything :) ~Stacy~

[@Rvlove]

Thank you!

[@timstretton3174]

I'm Not Lost I'm RVing I can’t wait for you guys to start boondocking as well!!! Lol. I appreciate all the full time Rvers I follow. Two great channels right here. For those of us who can’t go full time right now, thank you. My daughter is young right now and I have 50/50 custody. She trumps that life style right now.

[@kitesquid]

I hope you get a Newmar New Aire!!!!!!!!!!! 3341! Whatever you get, I know you will love it!!!!!

[@Rvlove]

These sure are popular with people here! LOL Yes we do love our new RV - more later today!

[@kitesquid]

The Newmar New Aire 3341 is at the top of our list. Just trying to save up a few more dollars to be able to pay cash for it as we dont want to incur any debt at this point in our lives. we will be moving from a 2500 square foot home and a 2001 coleman Utah popup camper to a class A diesel pusher, so it will be a HUGE jump for us. Scarry but watching your videos takes a lot of the fear out for us. I cant wait to see what you replaced Rocky with (my money is on a Newmar New Aire 3341)! Keep the great vidoes comming as I have learned a LOT from your videos!!!!

[@000MACK000]

Well this is a pretty hard guess, if you need more than 22,000 lbs for your stuff I am stumped on what you're going to get I look forward to your next episode and actually finding out what you end up with.

[@Rvlove]

hehe

[@kariwick-InnerPeaceCoaching]

Change can be good! (Regardless of what the naysayers think!!!) My guess is another class a, little smaller than Rocky (around 35 feet) with the GVW you need to boondock more, perhaps a diesel this time? Happy travels, looking forward to the new adventures, Kari p.s. Was the matching blue planned? 🙃

[@MrNaomitherealtor]

Great you sold it where did you advertise? Or you just mention it in the videos.

[@politerabbit3100]

RV freedom, I think she said that they didn't have to advertise due to the channel, they had 2 interested buyers through their venue.

[@valamonica]

Congratulations 🍾

[@grabowskycountry]

Hmmmmm, I'm thinking Super C diesel ...well that's my dream anyway🤗😘 good for ya'll on the adventure!

[@Rvlove]

Hehe thanks for your suggestion, you'll find out later today!

[@workingtorelax1223]

That’s cool. Your way more courageous then me.

[@werairlola9697]

Hope you get a Newmar this time....love our Dutch Star...can carry almost anything we want...just added solar and lithium batteries 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Best of luck to you both...moving your cheese 🧀 is a good thing🙏

[@Rvlove]

It sure is!

[@jos6216]

Wish Yall the Very Best!!!! Congrats on the move and future upgrade!!!! Have enjoyed your videos and have learned alot from your generous sharing of your lives and experiences. God Bless You and Your Business!!

[@Rvlove]

Thank you!

[@HumbleRoad]

A very interesting video! Typically, Class A dwellers move to a smaller rig, much smaller! But your comment about wanting more CCC whispers diesel pusher. My guess; a diesel class A under 30 feet.

[@andychops]

Yes sir that is correct. I just transitioned from a class A DP to a truck camper, and what a transition it was! Granted it's pretty big as far as TCs go with two slides, but still probably not all that different from downsizing to a van.

[@HumbleRoad]

Isn't it amazing how much more access you have now!? I had a 40 foot Class A DP and although I could thread a needle with that beast, we were very limited as to where we could go, and don't get me started on getting pinned in at a fuel station! Good luck with your TC, safe miles.

[@andychops]

Thank you. Hope to run into you one of these days and see all your fine van work in person.

[@Rvlove]

:)

[@Rvlove]

Thank you both for sharing your insights and experiences! We love reading about what others change to and why - such a personal journey isn't it? The big reveal is tomorrow.. and keep in mind we're probably not "typical" LOL

[@Linescrew1Canada]

I am always tempted to buy another RV until I think of the gadgets and adaptations I've made to my RV and the work it would take to move and remove them for my next RV. Urban RV folks as yourself that don't do the wilderness camping where others dare or cannot physically go with large RVs have it a little easier than I do. You just pack the bags and leave. You've provided a lightly used rig with few miles on it for the next person. Depreciation is the thing that few nomads talk about but hey, I guess it's only money. I like to park my RV at airports too much and spend the potential depreciation on global trips elsewhere I guess. My RV will be at the airport in fall, and I'll be somewhere else.

[@Rvlove]

Yes, modding an RV to make it your own takes time and work... and agree few talk about depreciation. A huge factor often overlooked by most folks... we'll definitely be talking about that in tomorrow's video.

[@rebellucy5610]

Depreciation is a fact of life with any type of vehicle. RV, boats, planes etc. Life goes by quickly and in the end you will NOT be thinking about 'depreciation'. You WILL be thinking about memories and spending time with people you love. If owning a RV gives someone the chance to make lasting memories then go for it! Live life and enjoy the journey.

[@TheJackieJP]

Checkout the Super C's Y'all might like those .

[@gailrobinson7125]

Farewell Rocky and happy travels! Looking forward to seeing RV Love’s next home,,,guessing it won’t be a tent. 😃Can’t wait! 😍

[@Rvlove]

lol. Definitely not a tent.

[@richardc488]

Sorry to hear you selling your RV

[@Rvlove]

It was hard to let her go, but we love our new coach too.

[@clarasalaam2831]

Beautiful music ❤️❤️❤️

[@Rvlove]

Thanks! That last track was by Julie's favorite Australian band OKA - been wanting to use this one for ages and it was the perfect tune for the tribute to Rocky :)

[@brettsgalaxyvids]

I loved that music in the dedication video. That had my toes tapping. Very fitting tribute. I wish I had a friend with a duck pond! heehee!

[@Rvlove]

Thank you! Julie's favorite Australian band - been wanting to use that particular track for a while now and this was perfect for Rocky's tribute. Yes, friends with duck ponds are the best! LOL

[@bobshaw4063]

Julie what is the name please of your favorite Australian Band ? My oldest nephew was born in Carnarvon , Western Australia when his dad was stationed in Exmouth , Western Australia with the US Navy several decades ago .

[@Rvlove]

They are called OKA, Bob, OkaMusic.com

[@janetstewart3358]

Looking forward to the big reveal to the new Rocky II.......I’m guessing a class A diesel. There’s a lot of really nice Class A’s out there so I’m guessing you will stick with what’s comfortable to your budget. Can’t wait for tomorrow! 🙃

[@jimsowder446]

My guess is a super C motorhome

[@brianhubbard6423]

Come on go for it buy a Newell or Prevost ! It only money and haven't you heard the statement, if there going to repossessed buy the best. Good luck on what ever you buy. Keep the rubber on the road

[@Rvlove]

Hey Brian that's very entertaining - if not financially sound - advice! LOL We're sure many people do that. hehe
