We Traded Our RV for a Vintage 4x4 Truck Camper!? 😍 FULL TOUR + Heading up to CANADA!

[@Darkeforce]

I’m sorry, did you just refer to 1998 as being “vintage”?!? How. dare. You. You just lost a subscriber! (Not really). 😂

[@arlenesolis024]

😂😂😂

[@mary.1984]

🤣

[@homesteadlove]

😂😂😂

[@brianpurcell9058]

Lol 😂

[@heathers8565]

Can confirm anything over 20 yrs old is considered vintage. 100+ is antique lol

[@t.kulm49]

I would love to see u guys build out a truck camper like this one. This is exactly what I would love to do.

[@jh48167]

Your videography just gets better and better. Some breathtaking scenes here. I love the mealtime intervals too - have taken away some heathy new meal ideas from Allison’s cooking. Love sharing these mini vacations with you guys!

[@heatherbella]

Welcome to British Columbia! I love seeing my province through other people's eyes! I hope you come to Vancouver Island! ❤️❤️

[@Theendlessadventure]

We are absolutely loving it up here! Sadly, we probably won't make it to Vancouver Island this trip, but it looks amazing 😍

[@soxrox2574]

I think all the different variations of RVs have there pluses and minuses. In this setup you can access most off grid sites. The ones you can't you wouldn't be able to take the cab off. I guess it's personal preference depending on your travel style.

[@edromero9149]

Love what you guys do thank you for bringing us along

[@Theendlessadventure]

Thanks for coming along! 🙌

[@traceynobil6852]

Hi Eric & Allison - Just an opinion - Not the best choice to build. You have stayed and traveled in so many great places/spaces. Wouldn’t this option create just temporary feeling space to live in as you travel? Just seems you have stayed and traveled in more interesting spaces/options that seem like you are traveling in a home space that happens to be mobile? Seems like a temporary life choice for you as a couple.

[@toyota864x4man26]

You guys are funny and fun good clean family fun I can watch with wife and kids no cussing no trash keep up the good videos !!

[@irener1111]

Did you rent that rig? They rented it in that condition? Something’s wrong with that.

[@juliestaub9081]

That is what I was thinking…who rented this to you so filthy?

[@kevinfleming9919]

Private owner doing a Turo style rental, not a rental company.

[@BigHeinen]

Yes, that's a clothes drying line for 'damp' clothes or the towel you just dried off with after your shower. Maybe your swimming suit/trunks after they've been wrung out to just damp. And you're right! No dripping wet clothes! Also, with the addition of more modern solar panels and larger inverters I'd change out the gas stove to an induction cooktop and the gas oven to a double door front opening electric air fryer oven in a heartbeat! Don't forget to change out the gas fired water heater and storage tank for a tankless electric water heater! Way more compact and also a far less chance of fires like the Beans!

[@Johnny.D]

But wasn't the Beans a leaky fuel line?

[@BigHeinen]

Yessir, I believe you are correct. I just dislike gas appliances in general and referenced the Beans as the result of "a" fire, not necessarily the cause of 'the' fire. But still, you are absolutely right!@@Johnny.D

[@dl371617]

You should rename your channel to “ The Endless Repair “ or “The Endless Waste Of Money “.

[@sabrinabelli7356]

I LOVE those campers!! I see one park at a beach that's near my trailer, and i always think how wonderful to just pull up to a beach parking lot, take up 1 spot and have everything there with you for however long you wanna stay - much more convenient than a pull behind, much easier than an RV and just so darn cute!!!

[@Theendlessadventure]

Exactly - this setup was so small and convenient compared to all our other rigs. We especially loved that we could backup without any worries 🙌

[@ladytyssa1716]

I think the most beautiful drive in Canada is from Banff to Jasper, AB. Just jaw dropping. Every turn of the road looks like a postcard.

[@lethiapage4767]

I'm all about retro but man for your purposes you really do need something reliable. I hope you stay safe. Im enjoying your videos and how eternally optimistic you are.

[@keithglazier7192]

That thing is like the Tardis, it's bigger on the inside!

[@mikemanjo2458]

Great job! We've wondered about a truck camper before. I'm glad y'all are getting a chance to try it out. Thanks for bringing us along! So much fun as always!❤🙏 Jane

[@classyvintagetravels6744]

Love you guys but tired of building. Love your travel videos:) Marie

[@TheKarelKramer]

Chuck won't take a camper with a slide. You need to watch your GVWR. It is easy to go over the weight rating with a camper on a 3/4 ton truck. I have a Ford F250 and my 1996 Lance camper is right at the limit.

[@brikhouse22]

I grew up going camping in campers and used to ride in the back of them lol, not so legal but was fun.

[@lynnparsons5816]

We would love to see you guys build a truck camper. We started watching you during covid and really enjoyed your creativity. Besides that, you could be home near Eric's mom, and that would be nice at this time. Sending good thoughts your way, The Parsons Family

[@Theendlessadventure]

Thanks you guys! We'd definitely love to find a new project closer to home, whether it's another camper or a house or something totally different 😅 We're just so bad at committing! 🙈

[@scotttan6377]

You guys always crack me up . This episode was hilarious throughout .

[@joannebader7906]

Vintage 1998 😆😆😆. Now I feel real old. Lol

[@dragonmac1234]

I love Clementine, but it's fun to see you travel around in different vehicles.

[@Theendlessadventure]

Same! It always makes us realize that Clementine is the perfect home on wheels for us, but we love trying out new rigs and fantasizing about another, stealthier build 😁

[@alohatvn]

Pretty nice camper. See you around adventurers.

[@williamarmstrong9970]

If your fridg is too cold or hot you can adjust that by moving the :theromister", it's the little plastic thing on the right side of the aluminum vains in the back. Up is colder, down is warmer I think.

[@wlmf6185]

I love this channel and the punniest 😅 people. They deserve more subscribers❤

[@Theendlessadventure]

🤣🙌

[@larryraymond3145]

Slides are not great in cold weather and some slide mechanisms will give you constant grief and cost $$$ to repair. Check online videos for the ‘better’ ones.

[@lookingbehind6335]

Slides aren’t great in any weather or condition. They will fail and it will be at the worst time.

[@elwaupo1]

I’d love to see you two build a camper, would be a fun project!

[@claverhouse1]

Again?

[@raymondherbst7126]

They just built the last rig Clementine on KZbin and have been on other rv build competitions

[@jj-if6it]

I'd rather see a house reno, we've seen so much RV content

[@wconradjr]

The only way I would want to watch you build it is if you built it on a brand new truck specced for the weight you intend to put on it. You guys need to experience reliable rvlife.

[@marieneu264]

Eric is so lucky that his wife is so likable, because he’s pretty corny and cringy.

[@dianealvarado6219]

It is obvious you guys love animals. I don’t understand why you don’t get a fur baby of your own to travel with you.ADOPT and save in animal

[@kevinfleming9919]

Hard to take care of an animal on the road, takes up limited space in the vehicle, their vehicles don't give much room for an animal to move around in, more expenses with care and food and storage of the animals food when they don't have a lot of room for their own food, hard to do random trips on planes and boats going to other countries, having to get medical papers/shots/etc for different countries they go to for the pet, quarantine time for the animal when it arrives in another country and sometimes when it comes back into the US to check for transmitted diseases, having to arrange to get the pet back to family or friends to take care of it while they are out of the country and hoping they can do it on their schedule, pet restrictions at RV rest stops while traveling, etc.

[@davidpatrick1813]

Wrap around table in this rig is nice and rarely seen. So many have "concept" design rather than physical measurements and common use. Measure once cut twice 🙂

[@vickyrun8796]

I can see you using a camper like this for short trips. But I prefer the Black Series. Also please no build videos. That was okay during covid but I like the travel videos better. Epic views and yummy food is what I want to see. 😊

[@Banditt42]

The good thing about build videos is that you don't have to watch them.

[@kevinfleming9919]

They can still travel as they are building. They have the RV, the Travel Trailer, and can fly anytime they want as a break in building.

[@JamesWilliams-om4vj]

Sorry.. but can i be friend with you? I am new on here and i don't know much about KZbin.

[@CarinaPiersay]

I love Clementine and her vintage vibes but she’s had so much trouble making it work for herself… have you thought of maybe parking her at a family person’s home to use as a guest room? I think a truck and camper is a much better idea. If the truck goes belly up you can always swap out the truck and keep the camper 🤷🏻‍♀️? Just a thought

[@suemeyer7551]

The Eagle Cap 1165, Lance 1191, Okanagan 116ULT, or the Okanagan 117DBL are my favs. All have dry baths and lower beds to get into as they have a basement. Really really heavy though! Need to amp up the truck mods to make it safe.

[@JoeWoolley-rf5fq]

Why didn’t you tow Ruby behind that truck ? It will handle it no problem . I like truck and camper better then the Motorhome . Great video 👍👍👍

[@tedwalker1370]

The vent above the bunk may not be leaking but it will condense water on the inside and drip on you. They make little pillows to stuff up in it on the inside to keep it from doing that.

[@stephaniec2491]

Are you coming over to Vancouver Island this trip?

[@danielsplayhouse3804]

I hope you guys don't trade Clementine out for that piece of crap truck you already got a Ford f-250 ready for the camper in the bed..... 😮😮😮😮😮😮 The problem you're having with Clementine is not a big problem it's just a leaking exhaust manifold

[@mrbhasin]

Do a build project guys, and spend more time with family so more memories to treasure.. Thank you for sharing your experiences. You are awesome .

[@LC-r2b]

When are you going to make the decision to trade that old RV forever???? Its a money pit

[@angelamurphy3331]

Look out for The Cat Van Lady in the general area where you're heading. She is a lovely KZbinr whom you may already know. Lovely rig Eric and Alison. 😺🍀🍀💚💚😺😺💚💚

[@shelaghjackson9577]

In my nearby neighborhood!🇨🇦 That huge granite lump behind you at the beginning is a popular climbing spot called “ The Chief”. The back of the camper reminds me of a London Tube train! 🚇

[@liberationenabled4593]

12:44 - I think it's for drying clothes. Well, like hung on a thread, clothes hung overnight and more or less dry. Or for towels to come out and dry off after a shower.

[@sarah-phillips]

That waterfall is friggin gorgeous! I knew so many people who had campers like that but I never realized how big they were inside. You'll totally have to renovate one so you can have a mini Clementine if you want to go off-roading!

[@Theendlessadventure]

We like the way you think!

[@jeremyhunter1459]

The cab of that truck reminds me of the song from "Cake" "stick shifts and safety belts."

[@amandareiche9083]

You, Eric, are never prepared for the weather-----invest in outerwear!

[@maryw7951]

That dog gave you side eye when you called him old!!

[@JamesWilliams-om4vj]

Sorry.. but can i be friend with you? I am new on here and i don't know much about KZbin.

[@KyleRuggles]

Welcome to Canada, eh! Land of normality and civility!

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

I bet you both were glad to be off that Ferry after the horrendous trip with the storm 😜🫣 . So happy your safe back on solid Ground 🫶🫶. What an awesome camper yes it sure could use a lot of TLC its a nice size 😊 Hope you can Get Clementine repaired back on the Road again 🤞🤞 . Looking forward to your next adventures in Whistler 😅 have a Good weekend take care 🥰🥰

[@leannec-c8456]

You came to my home town??!?! Never would I think you two would end up in this neck of the woods. ❤ Sea to Sky fan over here.

[@Theendlessadventure]

Well howdy neighbor! You sure do live in a beautiful area 😍

[@dannyhancock9330]

These types of vids should just be called "we traded Clementine for something that isn't always in the repair shop!" or "Our money pit on wheels has done F!*%$d up AGAIN!!" LOL

[@Theendlessadventure]

☝️ truer words may have never been spoken, haha!

[@drewg2030]

Would love to watch y’all build one so I could learn how to build mine

[@4WhatItsWorth]

That opening waterfall shot and timing the aerial 'zooming out' shot of the camper to the music was 👌 The production quality is just continually improving 😍 You guys are basically film-makers now. I definitely notice and appreciate all the little touches you guys make to your videos and the effort that goes into them. What's funny is that I actually love your old videos too. Yet those were very different with minimal production quality. I think the old ones had their own vibe. Like very raw and natural. You guys were younger so you were in a different place in your lives and just kind of documenting your lives in this very real 'fly-on-the wall' sort of way. Almost like a video-log. Travelling with friends and just kind of kicking around seeing where the wind took you and figuring it all out as you went along, etc. As time has gone on and this has become a career for you, the videos have of course changed. The circumstances you find yourselves in has changed. It's like the channel and your videos have grown and developed with you as you both have. Because the channel is an extension of you. So it makes sense that it would evolve as you do. It's very interesting.

[@iwanttocookthat3059]

You just made me homesick!! We are living in AZ but are from Vancouver !!! I even miss the rain. !!! That’s a cool sized camper but I agree I would gut it. Thanks for taking me home with you this week!!

[@Theendlessadventure]

Happy to give you a taste of home! Now if you could please send us some sun and warmth from AZ, we'd really appreciate that right about now 🥶🤣

[@jeffhampton2767]

Eric has the moves. I'm shocked that he could dance that well. Maybe he should become a professional dancer! 🤔😆😆😆

[@jonasamelotte8866]

You guys are hilarious! You gotta visit Victoria!! Way different than the mainland and you can take an hour ferry back to Washington with your truck!!!

[@toddlucas1550]

@ 1840 I saw the container of Cavinder's. You are now at the top of my list of the best KZbin chefs. Yall have been one of my favorite youtubers as it is..

[@kerrypatrick5695]

Welcome to British Columbia! Shannon Falls is beautiful and as is that whole area! Have fun!

[@martinwilkie1673]

Another great episode guys. LOVED Allison's braids. Please wear them more 😊

[@TenajTino]

Wow!!😮 Those waterfall were so beautiful, reminded us our time in Canada and Alaska. Enjoy!

[@tm8747]

im glad your about your new camper, on the truck , BUT, ? i would recommended air bags on the rear , AIR LIFT AIR BAGS! why it will help with the added load when traveling and less wear and tear on the read suspension and a very nice ride ! 2 ways to pump up the air bags, 1, service station , or costco, sams, walmart etc, or a portable air compressor or standard install , i place my air bags at 40#s each side , thats 1250#s each side to help with the load due to the added weight of the camper, . the biggest problem in carry campers is overloading the springs on the truck , even if its a 4x4. hope that helps you, for the air bags to buy and install for cost , 4wd parts or ORW parts for your rig would go with the 5000#s units (2500#s each side, ) .

[@laurencedurnell5079]

Nice one guys. We would love to watch you build the camper!😎

[@timothygriffin1062]

@ 13:55...Bombastic Side Eye !!!

[@KimbaLoveAdams]

I’m sorry this one isn’t prettier or nicer than Chuck! Come on!!! Poor Chuck!!!!

[@steveblount4552]

Did I miss something...back in Canada

[@nadiainthesky]

8:12 OMG the face Eric made after he said “COME into my RV” has me dying laughing 😂😂😂

[@dwsdws12]

We love our vintage truck camper- renovate one you’ll love it! (We’ll love watching you do it too)

[@Amanda-yv4dl]

My parents had the same cushions in their RV from the 90’s!!!

[@LifeLoveandAvocados]

Omg, that waterfall was outstanding!

[@Theendlessadventure]

Right?! It seemed to be bigger every time we drove past it. It was so cool!

[@mikemartinez1885]

When are you all coming down to South Padre Island..?? That rig would be RIGHT at home here on the beaches.!

[@Steve_Farwalker]

The Canadians only say 'eh' in front of the tourists.

[@maccalemon]

wow how homemade does that thing look, you guys should be in a hi spec winnebago for sure

[@lookingbehind6335]

Winnebago lost all credibility two decades ago. They are garbage no matter what spec nowadays.

[@ginabrandt6168]

Your title is misleading, if not an outright lie.

[@NickandJulie]

You guys should check out our fully remodeled Lance truck camper tour to get some ideas, if you plan on getting or building one!

[@Theendlessadventure]

Oops! Just saw this after replying to your other comment. You guys definitely gave us lots of terrific ideas!

[@beckymoran321]

Who rents out a dirty Rv? Eeew.

[@dorisweems1510]

I would get some of those long matches used for lighting fireplaces to light that oven.

[@JANDLWOODWORKING]

Welcome to Canada Eh!! you will love Whistler we were there this summer have to do the peek to peek breath taking views!! Hello from Ontario!!

[@amyrudolph1090]

If you replace the table with a smaller lagoon mount table, it would make the main area waaaay more usable and open.

[@toddbrown4886]

Building the truck camper would be great to watch

[@-RONNIE]

Them truck campers were good at the time & still has their purpose even nowadays if that's what people are looking for. Thanks for the video 👍🏻

[@TA-41]

I would honestly watch any content you guys put out.. food, camper builds, sitting on the couch watching movies... anything! ❤

[@Theendlessadventure]

Thank you! 🥰

[@pvtdieolot]

I would love to watch you guys do a camper buildout for Chuck the Truck.

[@NeilAtkinson99]

You might check out the Host Mammoth. They are not retro, but they are spacious. Basically, you get everything you would get in a much larger RV (Dry bath, king bed, full kitchen, plenty of sitting area, etc) in the bed of a truck. Plus you have the ability to drop the camper quickly and have a truck to run around in.

[@kathymerlo2377]

I can totally see you guys in a truck camper - one that you build out yourself! Would be great to see

[@peterswanson3446]

I don't laugh very often... but the weegee board bit had me in stitches 😂

[@Theendlessadventure]

🤣 amazing!

[@capeclearisland]

Yeah, we'all know y'all, y'all. Y'all? 😂

[@michaelholbrook4401]

I would absolutely watch you guys re-vibing (yes, vibe is important 🙂), a retro fiberglass camper like that on Chuck the Truck.

[@DavidBuke]

What a stunning scenery so beautifully captured 🤩

[@caroleingram5278]

Welcome to Canada Eh!😊

[@GerardPalmeri]

Ouch! It's painful when you guys describe something from 1998 as "vintage". I suppose it's better than you calling it "antique".

[@roypearce6968]

You both and your one liners 😂😂 love it and nice old rig . How you change your vehicles on your introduction to what you are driving love it and always enjoy your video.😊

[@juliestaub9081]

I wonder the same about the intro! I think I remember them saying they pay a freelancer to do the updated intros but I could be wrong. But I so appreciate that added detail when they switch up vehicles! ❤

[@AlexBeckleysRVs]

I would love to watch you all build one. On the fiberglass aluminum debate. Ask 10 rv technicians who use RVs. 99% are going to tell you how easy aluminum is easy to fix.. have a leak.. hands down better!! I have a 84 skyline 21 ft C just a bit newer than yours and I would take it anywhere.

[@airenesmiler6624]

It's always so weird seeing places that I am so familiar with. I knew exactly where each shot you filmed in this video was. I live in Alberta now but BC has my heart still.

[@skkeech]

Oh goodness. I grew up in Oregon and rain is AWFUL. You are always wet and cold and muddy. It's not romantic...it sucks.

[@xXNickPXx]

Thanks for this - I'm about to take a trip to the exact same location, in the exact same RV 😂 what good luck to have found this video

[@prestinaluvr]

Changing the title card for every vehicle is always a touch that doesn't go unnoticed. You guys are awesome.

[@gaspasser007]

I would definitely love to watch a build video. The more detail, the more my geek, gear head brain would be happy.

[@Theendlessadventure]

🤙

[@jzakary1]

Old boats and RVs share the same funk inside. 😁

[@jackierosenwald4193]

Wow. This brings back memories. My dad had the exact same camper and truck growing up. But his truck was green. We never used the stairs. 😂

[@Theendlessadventure]

Oh no way! That must have been tons of fun! By the end of the trip we stopped using the stairs, too 🤣
