S5E13 | Worst Week Ever I Can't Believe That Happened |VanTrue DashCam Review| Full-Time Camper Life

[@margaretmoran9429]

I know you have good days and bad days like everyone, but it’s hard to watch the bad days. You are a beautiful witness of how you depend on the Lord during the troubles. I’m glad you have a go to series that helps you relax.

[@rustyneal8259]

Nat, the key that broke is the "571" key. At least that is what it looked like. ANY RV key, the 571 key will open your locks. It is universal with RVs.

[@livinright1]

Very true^^^... otherwise, buy a $15 set of lock picks. I used to sell RV's, locks are super easy to pick in a pinch!Way to keep your cool and staying prayed up!👍

[@jpontheroad]

Exactly 💯 your comments need more attention

[@phillipstuart3318]

That is true But my advice is for all your keys

[@NatMoran]

Thank you for this comment! I wish I knew that before today's video was done. (I break into my camper haha). I will remember this!

[@mrpink3630]

just tell everyone idiot

[@marynahanks5885]

I have so much admiration for the way you dealt with everything. Awesome! Grateful that the Lord was there to help you and protect you xxx

[@jasonsandifer3250]

Absolutely Amen, Agree with your comment

[@RodWmson1950]

One Question: When something goes wrong, take care of it right away. Broken key, call a locksmith. Hookup issues, buy an array of adaptors. Have a leak, find it,and either fix it or find someone who can. Letting it go leads to frustration. Love ❤️ you, Nat. Keep up the adventure.

[@NatMoran]

💯!! I definitely try to take care of it immediately. I'm not always able to, but I definitely agree!

[@Saturdays.Script]

Best dad advice ever! ❤

[@Uncle_Boozy]

Excellent choice of breed, Nat. A lot of single women think that traveling with a small toy dog breed is the way to go. I feel this is a really big mistake. Not only do German shepherds serve as a great “f around and find out” visual deterrent, but they’re fiercely loyal and will fight to protect their family to the end as well. I travel with one myself for those very reasons. Stay safe and tell your deutsche schäferhunde I said hello.

[@NatMoran]

I love my little protectors. 🖤

[@henryanderson7606]

Nat...when you next get near an rv parts place, show them your key, it has a # stamped on it and they can sell you a copy.

[@bradthompson9400]

What a week! Sometimes you just gotta laugh, praise the Lord and keep on keepin' on. Blessings!!

[@CathyPinAZ]

I just wanted to hug you after watching your trials and tribulations, Nat! 😢❤ Here’s to better days and less calamity as you wander freely with your sweet pups! 🤗🫂❤

[@NatMoran]

Awe thank you! It's been rough! Yes! Better days.

[@rachelnoggle1239]

Wow! Glad you’re ok! That looked super scary! Hope the lodge reset has helped. I love Pagosa Springs too! You should soak that back in the hot springs.

[@DavidSmith-vo3nd]

Nat they make a bar tht is called a load lock yo could use that to keep the wall up until you can lock them together. Check it out at any truck stop. Walmart might sell them.

[@NatMoran]

I'll definitely look into that! Thank you so much!

[@Knowfere]

YESSSSS! Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit!!!!!!! Watch it over and over and over! I think locksmiths can make keys from existing locks...

[@JoJo-vz5uy]

Please take good care of your sweet pups 🐕🐕

[@NatMoran]

I will! They are my world. I'm so thankful they stayed by side during all this. They are wonderful companions. 🖤

[@michaelboria5606]

I know I keep thanking you for your awesome videos and must be getting a bit old by now but I want to truly compliment you for you being so real. You are strong both physically, mentally and very resilient. Your "can do" attitude is something that others can learn from. If they were more of YOU out there, undoubtedly this world would be a much better place. Thank you.

[@NatMoran]

Awe thank you! I feel like this last week has been by far a hold my beer moment to this video. I don't even know how to film all the crazy I've been through in the last week. It's definitely impacted the positive attitude I usually have. I've been trying to offer myself grace for having a few meltdowns behind the scenes. I know I can do all things through christ who gives me strength, but I'm exhausted. This comment helps me keep perspective. Thank you so very much!

[@tinabeane]

That was hard to watch and glad you were not seriously hurt. I appricate you keeping it real and showing what the not so good and stressful days are like. You handled that all so well, no way would I have been like that. Enjoy the cozy lodge and recharge.

[@journeywithserenity5655]

I’m the same I will rewatch The Hobbit/LOTR (extended of course) to improve my mood or get me through a tough day!

[@NatMoran]

💯

[@Gwmcmi02]

Some days really make ya earn it and if ya ain't laughin', you're cryin'. But you survived, you advanced, and you're stronger for it. Well done!

[@NatMoran]

True words!!! Haha

[@tonyabrowninghikes]

So glad your ok. I would have definitely been crying before I could deal with everything. You are amazing! Beautiful camping spots

[@lisavanginder9693]

You let your faith shine brightly through these tough days. Jesus was with you even when the walls came down, it could have been so much worse. Satan tried but he lost the battle of bringing you down. Admiration girl, so love your videos.

[@jasonsandifer3250]

Absolutely Amen

[@waynedockett4212]

God bless you❤ it's always amazing to watch your channel 🙏 praise God for the joy you share, in Jesus name 🙏

[@goober9983]

Not a movie but the old black and white Munster shows, they work every time. All problems forgotten 😂

[@jeremiahpowen]

Right there with you with the LOTR trilogy…but…must be the extended editions! Keep letting your light shine for Jesus you are an encouragement! Blessings!

[@NatMoran]

Yes!!!

[@patriciabailey5155]

Hi Nat, You've been doing pretty good handling that old a-frame! I have had two a-frames in the past 10 years. When I saw those walls fall on you, I was certain that you were injured. I'm so glad that you didn't have to go to the hospital. I noticed that your a-frame doesn't have any bungee cords attached to the back roof. They must have been removed before you bought it. They are supposed to keep the roof up in conjunction with the four corner springs. It also looks like the corner springs have lost their strength. Replacing those springs are a major repair and probably pretty expensive. But for the leaking sky light window, there are some fixes on the A-Frame forums and they are not very expensive. You will probably find some sealant at an auto parts store. I hope that you will have easier days soon.🥰 Pat

[@NatMoran]

Thank you! It was a nerve rattler for sure. I bought it used, and I always felt like it needed roof support. I feel so much better after this message (physically and emotionally). Thank you so much!

[@coryneartheprecipice]

I watch pride and prejudice. The bbc mini series and the Kira knightly one. Love the story. Best of luck to you. I will begin my nomad life in a few months as I full time live out of my truck. God bless you

[@Saturdays.Script]

Same!😂

[@NatMoran]

I'm so excited for you! Even though things go wrong, it's an amazing journey.

[@bobmartens1089]

I learned the hard way..... spare keys in magnetic holder on rv and in truck..... Good luck you will overcome!!!!

[@NatMoran]

I should have made copies when I purchased the trailer. I'll be sure to do that next time!

[@rose-rs5ul]

Your puppies were concerned especially when you screamed. I was worried. So glad you we’re protected by the grace of God.

[@NatMoran]

It was so precious when I edited the video. They were so worried. 🙁 I love them so much.

[@meinschatzi8978]

OMG - thank you for posting this. We are looking to buy a trailer next year. I’m going to be 64 this year, and I’m retired. I’ve always looked at Aliners, I love them! I’ve wanted one for years. But, I recently had shoulder surgery, anchored bicep tendon was part of it. I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to lift a sidewall now. I will do my PT to gain better usage/rotation of my arm - this video has made me realize I need to rethink my dream. I want the least amount of trouble setting up, now more than ever. I realize it’s gonna have to be simple! I’m sure during normal weather it would be very easy, but the winds you were dealing with could seriously re-injure my shoulder and bicep. Thank you.

[@NatMoran]

I haven't made it public knowledge yet, but I will say my camper was completely destroyed in the wind the other day. I'm still filming that video and figuring out next steps, but I've come to the conclusion, this design is horrible. It takes a lot of pushing up and pulling awkwardly to get the walls up, so it probably wouldn't be very easy on your shoulder. I hope you get to feeling back to normal and can find that perfect setup!

[@scooterfb556]

On every parade some rain must fall.

[@Bluebonnetlady57]

I'm so glad you're ok.

[@rustyneal8259]

Ask any camper in the campground if you could borrow their rv key, it should work on all your locks. Good luck and keep smiling.

[@AzTraveler55]

Nat, Persistence is key to overcoming adverse situations. You stayed persistent despite being trapped in you camper and completed your set up. Way to stay strong physically and mentally. Maybe get yourself a bottle of good whiskey to kill the pain. Love your videos.

[@NatMoran]

Thank you for the encouragement! I might need to keep some whiskey on hand for days like those! Lol

[@DorothySuenkel]

What a couple days you have had. I'm glad that you shared the "real" side of your adventure. Stay safe and continue to enjoy your life. ❤️

[@NatMoran]

Thank you for this comment. I try to be real about what happens, and sharing was a risk. However, it sounds like I've helped a lot of people by sharing more so than the not so kind comments 😊 it means a lot to me that you'd say that.

[@DavidSmith-vo3nd]

Hi Nat, Thanks for the video. My comfort movie is Battle LA and Battleship. ;-) You can get another key at the camper store they most all use the same key for there storage doors.

[@NatMoran]

That's a great movie!!! I had no idea how common those keys were. I am so thankful for your comment.

[@neenee_marie77]

I would not have handled that as well as you did! I would have cried or broke things out of frustration. I recently got a vantrue dash cam! Only have used it once for a vlog but it was pretty good so far!

[@lillieb70]

You poor girl!! I love your positivity though!! Prayers for your body to heal and rest.

[@lorid2092]

Wow, what a week!!! I'm just glad you're ok! I think it's good that you kept the trailer accident footage in the video. You may save others the danger that you encountered. I was thinking about what I could possibly do in that situation, and all I came up with was to have my personal locator beacon on my person, when setting up camp, so I could activate the SOS button (if I couldn't get unstuck). I wouldn't have thought of this, had I not seen your video. I hope your next week goes much better❤️🍀🙏😊🌠

[@codyjames1636]

That’s a really rough week. I just had one myself. You handle it way better than I do. That’s for sure. Colorado is one of the most beautiful states out there for sure. Definitely a place that you could call home.

[@michaelglagola]

No, I seen you on the work less enjoy life more channel. I enjoyed that episode with you walking through the lava tunnel cave and glad I found both of your KZbin channels and will watch and support both of you. I’m gonna watch as many of your videos in the next week, love and enjoy the show. Say prayers for you and your fur babies.

[@Bigheartrolling]

Ahhh they should have offered you an adapter. I have more adapters than I need but it’s happened so many times. I would have loaned you mine! lol

[@jasonsandifer3250]

I am glad that you had the courage to show the mishap of your travel trailer, I believe that it can provide the necessary information regarding the Prevention for others, and keep them from experiencing similar mishaps, mistakes, being unaware of the dangers of the Winds, which cause this. I am Glad you Survived it is a Blessing. You may want to make a short video of the mishap to help others avoid the same problems. You may want to send the clip to the manufacturer for educational purposes for their Engineers to possibly re-engineer the design for future model of this trailer. They maybe able to Engineer fixes or other Safety modifications, or methods to Prevent these types of Mishaps, and the dangers of Winds, during the setup processes. God's Blessings to you, continue to Stay Safe, Alert and Aware.

[@NatMoran]

What a great idea. Thank you so much for the encouragement ! It means so much to me.

[@TGilsAdventures]

Just stumbled across your channel yesterday. I've watched a half dozen or so of your videos and I'll just say, you are a trooper! I've watched the excitement of your new camper purchase, to the total distruction of it. You are a great example of getting knocked down, but not being destroyed!

[@NatMoran]

Thank you! It has been a tough few months but the goal is to keep getting back up. 🤗

[@TimCarter-y4p]

I love your rig ! Might you give thought to adding a 2” receiver on the front ? It could be handy when spotting the trailer. Best wishes

You can get a 115v 15amp to 30amp adapter at Walmart or most stores that sell RV supplied. Should be less than $20 and handy to have.

So sorry about your misfortune. I'll start praying for you. 💓💘🙏✌️ Your big pups are cute.

[@jimsears2434]

Wow...that was painful to watch you get hit by the camper set up. My personal opinion.......upgrade to a lightweight safer camper with adequate space when finances allow. That A frame camper has and is giving you alot of problems. I'd hate to see that thing with a heavy wet snow load on it.....way too dangerous! Good job handling the problems as they came along......shows alot of strength and patience. Keep in mind since you are first time towing. The tires are smaller on your trailer and turn more revolutions per mile. It is very important to make sure the bearings are greased properly. I make it a practice to check the center hub with a temp gun every single time I stop to make sure I don't have a higher than normal operating temperature and all 4 hubs (on mine) are similar. Having a bearing go out (especially on a single axle) is a pain in the butt if you don't have spare parts and depending where you are. Good job making it thru the tough stuff...God Bless...Stay Safe

[@NatMoran]

I appreciate the encouragement. I'd like to say things got better after this video, but I'm at a crossroads now. I'm looking at different options and seeing what I can afford that's safer. Thanks for the tips! My dad told me to always check the heat on the tires and if it's getting hot, stop, grease, and sit tight for a bit. Thankfully, they've been cool but he has shared horror stories about tires flinging off his boat trailer and so on. 🫣 I definitely need a storage bin full of spare parts. 🖤🖤🖤

you could find a local hardware - they may be able to grind you a new key - clamping the pieces in their key grinder. or locksmith - if no rv dealer around. and yes, as rustyneal states - they do make universal keys - and also master keys - I used to work in the RV business. catch your breath, make some calls - shouldn't have to replace locks- just find a new key, and have a spare made too! - oh and comfort shows/movies -- star trek .. or anything space related... or oddly enough military movies -

Greetings, 90% of the trailers have the same key. So ask another RVer, and they should have the key.
