Tour of our New (to us) 2020.5 Winnebago Travato GL Camper Van

[@basketcase6884]

CONGRATULATIONS on the Blooper!!🥰😜

[@deborah4579]

Love Bloopers color! Cant believe I hadn’t subscribed before since I’ve been watching for awhile so I rectified that. I just bought this model and will get it in 10-14 days. You really helped with bringing this version to my attention. I too prefer the earlier G layout. Happy travels! 😊🙌

[@dbkyhere9229]

Congratulations guys, thank you as always for sharing!

[@mrs.t7008]

So happy for you!

[@garyofnyc]

Thank you for the tour and all the helpful information. You folks go above and beyond!

[@livingitup9647]

Wow! What a score! I'm one of many who are 'green' with envy!

[@lakemichiganboatingwithkjr7508]

I really enjoy your detailed explanations about how and why you do things. It's a different approach for the boating side of KZbin and it's really interesting. Thanks for doing this kind of video- learning quite a bit!

[@Hiker_who_Sews]

Happy travels!

[@karenpolansky9097]

Congrats! I’m glad you found what you wanted!

[@vxnova1]

Congrats, awesome looking van

[@grannyvroomvroom2523]

Great to see you back and congratulations on your new rig. Sweet!

[@selectshelley]

Hurray fir serendipity!! Love hearing from Kiki😊. Merry Christmas🎄

[@cathysupp9493]

Love that color! Many safe happy adventures to you, your previous videos helped me decide on a G 👍

[@tpardue2593]

Looking at the KL, love the outdoor shower option..

[@brettburguard4782]

Love the new van. A Blooper for the Great Loopers!

[@cryzzer]

Wow - that is a sweet electric system - pretty smart if it will get the engine going on its own when juice is needed. Congratulations - what a great buy for you guys.

[@cindysears3130]

Congrats, love your videos and lifestyle❤️

[@lindylund280]

Blooper is an adorable name especially considering the reason for it. Going to rewind to see how you did that lounge configuration. In the newest model don't like the Dinky front table or that there's no more puzzle bed. Edit: oh! That lounge is clever.

[@nancyf52]

Congrats! Great find for you. Kiki was talking hey over here.

[@billeisfeld2034]

Flagler Beach says Hi. I'm the guy who saw you on your morning run and said Hi. Long time follower. Bill

[@Technomadia]

Good eye recognizing a runner from behind!

[@DevoutFollowerofYeshua]

Yeah!!! I am SO excited for you both!

[@horizon42q]

Congratulations, Travato Lithium is the way to go in a camper van. Rogers State Park is a great place, been there too.

[@toycarcollector]

I would be really interested in video about how to maintain the plexiglass windows. I like a bright clear view out of our Travato. Recently I added plexiglass widow vents to a new car and at first I really liked them. They quickly became hazy. The brighter the light outside the worse they looked. So can they be cleared once they get scratchy? Really curious. Congrats on the new van.

[@Technomadia]

We love the 'Travato Owners and Wanabees' Group on Facebook for learning about stuff like this.

[@vanlifehungary3870]

HELLO! Thanks for the VAN tour, brilliant design! bye: Johnny from Debrecen (Hun)

[@donniechance4682]

I love the color of your van.

[@bruceclyne5254]

Nice job.

SWEET.

[@steventoney4018]

will be interesting to see your mods and changes.... as noted I have ordered a 2022 Travato GL with ETD in May 2021.. I ordered it with most options including the extra battery module.. the 2022 has several changes -- most are good - some not.. even though the 2022 has a much improved front radio/nav head unit.. I still think I will replace it with an Alpine Halo9 or Halo11 for a bigger screen... Will be interesting to see what you add in for internet - antennas - modems -etc.. what would be a good 5G 7-9 to 1 antenna? needs 4 cellular leads - 2 wifi leads.... I will be build a removable storage ottoman for the passenger seat area and some removable system to allow a bed in the lounge area as this a change in 2022 that needs addressing.. I need to find a way for some of the solar output to go to the chassis battery for maintenance and may add a smaller inverter for use when the 3600 watt version is not needed.. adding a secondary DC bus in the electronics area near TV - replace TV with computer monitor and proper veas wall mount arm. lots of fun to come

[@Technomadia]

As usual with our vessels, we never really get to install a mobile internet solution as we're constantly testing stuff as our job. And the van will be a mobile test bed. So we're designing around being able to carry multiple antennas to test head to head. Check out our Mobile Internet Resource Center channel for specifics on the stuff we track, or www.mobileinternetinfo.com. That's our day job :) We just recently did a 5G antenna video.

[@jenniferfranco3122]

We love this! It looks perfect. We are listing our Unity before the end of the month and plan to buy something a smidge smaller in about a year. This is on our list, along with the all electric Revel. We're wondering how much solar can be added to the Travato.

[@Technomadia]

We know some who have gotten 600w. Ours came with 200-215. We think we can get another 200 up there without too much hassle.

[@Mikesroadtrip-ec5kp]

I just saw you guy's on The RVer's.

[@Technomadia]

How cool!

[@ginaroberts2964]

Love your new "Blooper"! Thanks for sharing -- How is it on gas mileage?

[@Technomadia]

Haven't put our first tank in yet... but hoping it'll be similar to our 2016 (16-18 on the highway).

[@ginaroberts2964]

@@Technomadia That's really good news. My 4Runner gets a little more than that and I can't exactly live in it! (not as is anyway)

[@jeandragyn4143]

Nice van! where do you keep your kitty box in there?

[@Technomadia]

Under the bed

[@64MAGA24]

I’d like to get the swing arm TV mount you added. Can u tell me where u bought or brand? Thx

[@Technomadia]

Got it on Amazon.. should be a link in our gear center: www.technomadia.com/gear

[@geojbig]

Love you guys, I've learned so much. I'm retired and looking to live abroad a Hans Christian 33. Please let me know what loan company you used. I really appreciate it!

[@Technomadia]

No loan... we've been saving up for our van upgrade.

[@geojbig]

@@Technomadia I meant the boat loan company. I remember you said that they're awesome.

[@Technomadia]

I don't recall without digging back.. we paid the loan off a couple years ago, and they sold the mortgage several times since we took it out.

[@johnyang1420]

Is this the new style Travato GL like they had on the Nov 18 Winnebago announcement or is it the old style Travato GL. Many like the old style GL better.

[@Technomadia]

The new 2022 style doesn’t ship till next May - this is a 2020.5 model.

[@peaceoutvanlife]

You state that you can run the AC without the generator? Pretty sure you can't.

[@Technomadia]

We absolutely can.. our van has a 48v lithium setup that can run the AC for about 8 hours without charging. And there's no generator, it charges off the alternator of the engine. We have been using lithium batteries for years in all of our RVs and our boat - running AC off battery is just normal these days.

[@robindikos8937]

Where is the bus?

[@Technomadia]

In Arizona. We hopefully will manage a trip to see it sometime, but the pandemic has all plans on hold.

[@LouCook4531]

Very nice, too bad they are so expensive.

[@fredstephens6793]

Who is the vender of the combination insulated window/blinds that was the upgrade?

[@Technomadia]

No idea.. they come standard with Travatos.

[@snovak1]

Curious to know how many 12v amp/hrs the Travato is packing.

[@Technomadia]

The GL does not have a 12V battery - the lithium system actually runs at 57V. The battery I believe has around 9000 Watt/hrs of capacity, which works out to a 12V equivalent of around 700-800Ah.

[@snovak1]

@@Technomadia oh wow! When you said Lithium done right, I had to know more. Sounds like quite a setup. Thanks for the quick reply!

[@casualdrifter5226]

I love your dress!

[@matthe8329]

Being blue does it get hot in the sun?

[@Technomadia]

Wouldn't expect it to be any worse than the Granite was. But we now have more insulation.

[@FollowTheJohn]

I love people who love cats.

[@Technomadia]

Enough Kiki for you, John? :). Hope you're doing well, and your documentary subject matter will soon be a thing of the past.

[@FollowTheJohn]

@@Technomadia I hope. Chris and Cherie I have a feeling the "wall" fight will be going on for a long time. The ecocide is really bad and we are trying to get the wildlife migration paths restored. I wish I could have bought your "old" RV. Sleeping in my Pilot gets old. 8-) I hope to see y'all soon.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

usually I worry about Nomads over-extending themselves financially with rigs, insurance, payments, etc, but something tells me that you two are more than financially stable with your professional skills/income sources.

[@Technomadia]

Yes, hard work in our careers and the benefit of being raised to strive for a debt free lifestyle by our parents - has afforded us a 'mobile middle class' status. We are able to early retire if we wanted, but we choose to continue working.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

@@Technomadia thx for reply

[@jimblackshire4415]

I'm enjoying following your adventures. If you haven't already, check out Gamble Rogers music and storytelling.

[@watbri1801]

😁😁😁😁

[@kyoto32001]

why does a new class c cost $50000 but a little class b costs $90000?

[@Technomadia]

One major reason is resale value - Class B’s typically hold their value (and hold up to use) much better than Class C’s.

[@Technomadia]

A Class C is built frame up, cheaper to build. A Class B is built into an existing shell (van). Much more labor intensive.

[@randywilson6869]

I show your video to people to show why they need a education
