I bought my SON who works for Morgan Marines salvage Co. -Destin Fla. -a used LANCE camper 2012- 27’ the longest tow camper they made that year - he likes it - nice big wrap around kitchen , I felt I got lucky 🍀 at my find - I wanted better quality- and No chemical smells ! He has helped clean up America after last years storms. Thank- you for a nice camper LANCE

[@JodysJourney]

I like touring the RV show with you. My feet don’t hurt at the end. Haha. 😂❤️

[@gccooley]

And much, much cooler it was very hot there Wednesday.

[@faithrada]

Robert is spoiling us for sure. 🤗

[@ibcontent]

We bought a 2019 Lance 2375. Huge back window. Those prices are pretty high... Bought our in CA in a small town. New trailer, 27' long, $38K. Less than 1/2 an Airstream. Super nice, we love it. See ya' on the road.

[@johniboz1]

38k!!!!! Wow

[@carolkendall9728]

Thanks for the tour. It’s like we’re there with you.We love the laid back style of your videos

[@StellarFella]

Check out the Laid Back Bike Report with Gary Solomon. Recumbent trikes represent the safe laid back way to exponentially enhance the RV experience. Quality FOLDING RECUMBENT TRIKES like the HP Velotechnik Scorpion FS are a perfect example of what is out there. American RV's are now being designed with such toys in mind. The European and Japanese RV's have been designed this way for years.

[@bertkelly7650]

Thanks Robert for the use of your legs.

[@PaDutchRunner]

Lance should have arranged to have the Morton’s to attend by having them conclude their Go North trip at the show!!

[@DB-gd6xp]

That would have been great!

I got Robert's double CD... and play it in the car all the time. It makes even going to Trader Joe's seem like an adventure! LOL

Thanks 🙏🏼 Robert for touring Lance, they are 4 seasons camper built in California. Enjoy 😉

[@foreverfixin]

I am seriously looking at the Lance campers trailers the last one you looked at looks like it had an 8ft table with the slide out tray and the Lance campers have three propane tanks

[@itstrue1531]

Thank you very much! For lance RV , you very Good person!

We love our Lance 1685....put a lot of miles on her this summer with very few minor issues. I WANT that shower curtain rod! My 1685 has 45 gal fresh, grey and black tanks. 👍🏻

A very enjoyable channel. 👍

[@StellarFella]

I just got a Greenspeed Magnum XL trike yesterday and I love it! The frame folds and the two front wheels pop out conveniently and easily too. This is something I would definitely take with me if I had a RV even if I had to temporarily store it on a blanket in the middle of the floor while in transit. It could easily be slid out once I arrived at the camp site and securely locked in place out of the way. But once I got settled in, I would be itching to ride it around to check out the entire new camp site. I could stop to answer eager questions and many people would be set on their way with the information needed to explore the performance parameters of different models. A luggage rack on the back will allow you to safely carry a drone for use when the time is right too.

[@wanderingtravels2488]

Long ways from Miami uncle Robert

[@Nomadity]

Awesome video I love you channel!!! So much helpful info and inspiration!you have given me the push to start my own channel and create! Thank you 🙏

[@Dan-wy6zk]

Nomadity very cool I love this channel as well and look forward to a new travel channel..

[@StellarFella]

Check out FOLDING RECUMBENT TADPOLE TRIKES. Test ride them. They greatly enhance the RV experience and give you the ideal platform to film from.

[@1turf32]

Thanks

[@markd1300]

The lance truck camper at over $ 45,000 are they nuts. They call that a show price.

[@roblamont8756]

Mark D I like to buy mine on Craigslist for $5000

[@buckhorncortez]

Since you're, obviously, and RV expert - exactly how much should they cost?

[@garyloud4204]

Thank you for doing the leg work Robert, if you could mention the type of roofs put on the campers it would appreciated.

[@chriskennedy7321]

Thanks for another great video. Have a look at Oliver campers made in Tennessee. The build quality is the best I've seen. Many claim to be the best, but these will last for decades, not just 5 or 10 years.

[@gccooley]

They seem really nice but, wet bath and narrow.

[@johniboz1]

The guy down the street from me bought a new Lance a couple of years ago. Parks it in his driveway. I don't think it has been moved in 2 years more then 3 times.

[@philo5096]

That Lance was cool looking and better quality than the minniewinnie. More expensive though.

[@adam-hd7kg]

20:13 There are actually 3-20lb tanks under the cover. Lance makes a great product.

[@johnkeim3836]

Wait till your cheap wooden floors rot. Then you have to go to Home Depot to get more plywood. I didn’t miss the money I spent on a first class travel package. I prefer a Filet or Rib Eye to a T Bone or Flank Steak! Have a great day.

[@gccooley]

?

[@StellarFella]

Go solar as much as you can. People resent the noise created by a generator no matter what time of day it is. The plastic KOMO add on rear storage compartment is a perfect device for storing a whole range of items you will only need outside anyway. It fits on a trailer hitch and swings out for access.

[@Mastercorey001]

Can you do another video on the Lance and Micro campers at the Tampa show? Very interested in getting one up to 21 feet or so with possible bunks and only like your videos :).

[@mickster1780]

hope they sell a lot of these Lance travel trailers. i will probably buy a used one in 6 or 7 years

[@agentofficerthomasa.porter107]

$45,000 For Camper? OMG To Much! Way To Much! Thanks for the Tour!

[@geneland]

Thanks for the truck camper tour. If you ever get a chance check out Northern Lite truck campers, much more headroom and only one seam in its construction.

[@buckhorncortez]

You mean - just like a Bigfoot?

[@geneland]

@@buckhorncortez Yes, I just looked up Bigfoot, thanks didn't know about them, they might be a little cheaper too. Made the same, like a boat.

[@DavidMedina4All]

I believe Lance campers are 4 seasons. Correct me if I’m wrong please. I’m a fan of molded fiberglass campers myself. Like the Casita Travel Trailer.

[@mtxgalant96]

Was that line at the beginning of people waiting to get in? Man I'm going Saturday. Might be waiting awhile 😕

[@gccooley]

Walking from the parking lot towards the entrance.

[@djsi38t]

Great job Robert.the prices really astound me on those small campers,as I just don't think they should cost more than the vehicle that they are on or being towed by.25 grand should be an absolutely loaded model.

[@Serf_dumb]

Interesting to see that the 650 truck camper uses the acrylic awning style windows while the larger ones do not. I wish more RVs utilized this type of window as they open far more compared to the glass type & they weigh less too.

[@Norman1965arg]

I don't understand how the USA rv industry gets away with the prices they put on some travel trailers because they do a little effort to do them right. I looked at the UK rv industry, the interiors and exterior all fiber glass, incredible craftsmanship and their prices are reasonable. Here they start imitating that and they are charging you like you buying a real house????. The difference is, here people has a lot more money than the regular people in Europe, and the RV industry gets away, because people keeps buying at high prices instead of demanding quality at affordable price. I don't try to bush anybody, I just expressing my opinion.

[@nikkibandsashasrvadventure8830]

👍

[@StellarFella]

You were in hog heaven without the long lines the other day. Quality FOLDING RECUMBENT TADPOLE TRIKES exponentially enhance the RV experience. When you arrive and get all settled in at a new campsite, you want to lock everything down and get out to explore the immediate surroundings and beyond. Cruising around on a recumbent trike is the perfect means of doing this. Stop and smell the roses while riding a recumbent tadpole trike! You'll experience a place like Quartzsite in an altogether different way for sure.

[@AskRemy]

I think the people who make the design decisions must be super old and/or not very updated on tech nor forward thinking. 2021? Especially for these high prices. Maybe my Jayco is not so bad after all. I do like how you review them.

[@missouritravelers]

I was hoping for chocolate

[@slashdotjeo]

These things are really expensive compared to a regular Rv. For the same price you can get something trailerable way bigger and better. Why the price increase?

[@johnkeim3836]

Some people prefer cheap campers, some people prefer quality. I prefer quality my Airstream and a Ford King Ranch Truck.

[@adampecore7890]

Airstream are incredibly overpriced. As is your"King Ranch"!

[@nzrdb6]

Cheaper buying a deluxe ⛺

[@StellarFella]

I honestly think that riding around in a safe and comfortable recumbent trike will get the creative juices flowing and open up a fresh new chapter in your RV experience to form the basis of some more excellent musical compositions. When you return to Miami, be sure to stop in at Trailside Bike in Rose City, Florida next to the 46-mile long Withlacoochee Trail where you can test ride several models. A camera mount on one of these vastly expands your video making ability when you RV everywhere. Thanks for the videos and be safe and cool.

[@C-TOS]

Lance campers are kind of awkward. I think that more than half of pickup truck suspensionsin the market are not designed to hold those campers for long term.

[@TheJcrandazzo]

I agree ..most auto manufacturers don't recommend them. Top heavy too.. and no walk around bed.. Good luck making up the bed.

[@adventuresofjandk]

Here is a walkthrough of our 1985 Lance if interested. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZuuk2mpibNrr9U

[@johndivan9605]

I hate to burst your bubble. But Lance campers are no better built than any other camper on the market. I have a Lance slide in camper.. They use a lag bolt to hold the slide mechanism to the floor. Of course the lag screw stripped out of the wood. Also on the slide they did not engineered correctly so they had to use a spacer anything slide mechanism. This also slid out from the slide mechanism causing issues with the slide. My advice would be to look at other campers that cost less money and her just as well constructed
