We Move Into Our RV Full-Time and Travel to Lake Tahoe!

[@Shera_Travels]

This was a great video! I was so hoping to see a new video in the last two years to see how its held up as we're considering buy one from CA.

[@jwcolby54]

Wondering how the rv is holding up? I'm thinking about buying the 28a as well.

[@l0gic23]

Can we get an update on the rv and the u-haul trailer? Thanks! #Subscribed

[@elizabethmedero]

Would love an update too

[@mbbrosig]

Congratulations on your purchase! Hope you are having a lot of fun. Keep the videos coming, as my wife and I are considering following your steps and getting an RV from Cruise America too. All advices are welcome. Keep safe and have fun!

[@davidrodriguez8479]

👍Sweet RV Maybe we will try our luck on one ourselves. Pray all is still going awesome for you . Like your video .

[@stocksj]

Very nice setup of your ex-cruise America RV. I’ve rented this model for the last 6 years and they are great. I hope to buy a used one soon and add some additional comfort items like you have.

[@hoss1003]

Well.. I guess they were a, Flash in the Pan.. A one hit wonder.. Are you guys going to leave everyone hanging or are you going to make more videos?

[@MoorExpeditions]

Hi, we actually moved to Vietnam for work for the last couple of years. We are back now and I'm just checking out all the comments!

[@shemeher3380]

​@@MoorExpeditions how's the rv?

[@Notladjr59]

I have a feeliIng you have greatly exceeded the tow rating for that Class C RV with that truck on that heavy trailer. I sure hope you have not put yourself in a dangerous situation. Looking forward to an update! I just discovered your channel today and have watched all three videos. I know the pandemic has probably affected your plans but a video to update us as to your situation would be great. Even a short one! Good luck.

[@charlesd.7433]

I have the same rv. It will pull/stop that setup fine

[@MoorExpeditions]

We actually had a sudden move out of the country for work. We never had any issues with the truck/trailer setup, but thinking back on it, there's a good chance we could have been over the rating. I do know most of these v10 rigs can tow 5-8k with the right hitch, but GVWR is another story. We are back in the USA and mulling the idea of getting another rig.

[@andyspinball]

@@charlesd.7433 I disagree as did the OP. I own this identical Majestic, appears to be the same year too. I also own a 2006 Tacoma. No way he isn't over the limit. Will it pull it? Sure. Can it do damage? Yes.

[@andyspinball]

I've got a 2017 Majestic 28a and that looks like a LOT of weight back there. Isn't the limit like 5000 lbs?

[@josemontalvo4532]

Looks like home. Very nice.

[@MHix63]

Hi guys...just found this channel. Any more videos planned? How is the RV holding up? Are you traveling right now, or is that difficult because of covid?

[@synaptik111]

I really like your setup! How are you liking it one year later? I'd love to get an update

[@MoorExpeditions]

Everything worked well. No major issues to report. We are looking at possibly getting into a new rig.

[@l0gic23]

Yes, a video on VIPkid? Would be great

[@harmony2811]

It’s fun to be tuning in to the beginning of your full-time RVing journey! I hope to learn from your experiences. My husband and I are nearing retirement and are researching this lifestyle for ourselves. I’m planning to continue working by teaching online as well (either VIP Kids or virtual piano lessons) so I will be eagerly awaiting more about your experiences with that as well!

[@thinkpeace2012]

Love your kitchen accessories and jewelry box!

[@TripReviews]

Enjoy the trip. Nice tour.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Thanks so much!

[@jfarris30022]

The 28A is now $39k. You bought it at a good time.

[@Shera_Travels]

It's up to $50k now!!!!

[@denissullivan4683]

Great videos put a deposit on one today ! 45 -60 days I’ll have . Any issues or tips would be great , debating warranty think I’m gonna keep money for maintenance.

[@payloadperformance9706]

awesome video you guys I just bought my first RV and im planning lots of travel adventures in the near future with my girlfriend :)

[@timhvv]

The trailer is perfect. I have a Honda CRV that can't be towed as it's AWD.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Yes, that's exactly why we purchased it. I also didn't want extra miles or tire wear on my truck. Not to mention, it's a nice safety net in case of any catastrophic breakdowns.

[@JordanKoolVlog]

This is SO COOL!

[@professorbriancaykorrt3621]

How much weight were you towing? How did it tow and what are your thoughts on Power? any problems climbing hills or mountain passes?

[@elizabethmedero]

Would love to see more travel videos? Did you stop blogging? Love your channel. Are you guys still full time on the road?

[@LazyRetroGamer]

They post alot on instagram latest post was a week ago

[@MoorExpeditions]

We took a break due to moving outside the country for work over the last 2 years. Our instagram is still decently active and we are looking at possibly getting into another rig!

[@creativechannel9850]

I see you answered the question about which online platform you are teaching for. I have a tutoring company as well. What an impressive video. I’m wondering how you hung all of your items on the wall and your organizers in the kitchen and the bathroom? Also, the picture in the bedroom. How are you finding places to stay while you are traveling? I am learning all about this. I am thinking about buying an RV from Cruiz America and wanted to look at some reviews.

[@creativechannel9850]

Which Cruiz America did you purchase yours from?

[@solgoode1]

Hi guys. I have the same coach as you guys do. Bought from Cruise America. The sidewall has separated from the flooring. I think I just need to buy bigger screws and screw it back in. I was wondering if you have had the same issue? I can see daylight and the ground through the crack between the flooring and the wall. This is NOT delamination. The whole sidewall has separated. Thanks.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Actually, I don't remember having that issue ever.

[@Imag1na710n]

Are you going to make any more videos? I just found you.

[@timhvv]

The roads you drove to pick it up lead me to believe you were in Washington. Now I know you are. I lived over in Gig Harbor 12 years ago and bought my first Class C, a rental from Tacoma RV Rental. How many miles does this RV have on it. They usually have lots of miles, but are well maintained. Safe travels.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Hey Tim, yes that's right! We've lived in downtown Seattle, Lynnwood, and Issaquah! We purchased the RV from the Cruise America there in Everett. We bought it with 120k. No drivetrain issues yet (fingers crossed!) and we actually just changed the oil for the first time. Thanks for watching!

[@CompTechMike]

I guessed that they were in Washington within 30 seconds of the first video. Of course it helps that I was just looking at a list of every Cruise America location. 🤣

[@timhvv]

I bought my first Class C over at Tacoma RV and it was a rental as well with a slide out. It leaked way up in Canada, but a couple of helpful guys in a garage there repaired it on a rainy day.

[@CompTechMike]

What mount did you use for the TV?

[@MoorExpeditions]

It's some generic Chinese one on Amazon. Lots of brands, same product. I just wanted to make sure it had the features and specs we needed. Ours was called the PERLESMITH Adjustable Ceiling TV Wall Mount. It's been working out great so far.

[@CompTechMike]

@@MoorExpeditions Thanks! I really like where you chose to mount it. In most of the RV's like this I see them mounted in ways where you have to crane your neck. Yours looks like a perfect setup for watching from the couch. 😀

[@charlievandoren9816]

How noisy is the inside going down the road, and is yours ride pretty smooth? Love your trailer setup, happy trails 👍😎

[@timhvv]

Stay home. Stay well. Oh wait, you are home... Ha.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Feels just like home! haha

[@sccphilly]

Dude, how many miles on the rv when you bought it and how much? Did you get the extended warranty? Stay safe!

[@OceanandStars1178]

I'm not OP, but was looking into living full time in one of these and am in the process of buying this same model through Cruise America now. Generally speaking they sell the coaches after 4 years and they typically have 100k - 125k miles on them when they sell. Some more, some less. They price them at a fairly consistent rate based on the mileage, no haggling. I purchased the 2 extended warranties on mine, powertrain and coach. One thing I have noticed in the 6 months since I started looking into this, *everybody's* inventories are down due to COVID-19. Before I could go on the Cruise America sales site and see multiple units for sale. Now, it's 1 or 2. BUT if you're looking to buy one call the closest CA location. The one near me said they always had units coming up for sale but they are selling them before they even get listed. Also, expect to wait 45-60 days after you place the order for it to be ready. CA does a pretty good refurbishment process on them from what I've seen.

[@timhvv]

What are the studs along the sides for? Do you say you installed a skirt? Does that protest the wheels and hookups along the bottom?

[@briancayko]

Not the OP but the skirt is for helping keep the underside protected from the winter elements & cold weather. You’d also add tank heaters & hose insulation as well for cold/freezing weather use. It would also protect the tires from sun rot but it’s main purpose is temperature efficiency. God Bless

[@timhvv]

I am so excited for you guys.. Isn't it nice to have your bed with you?

[@MoorExpeditions]

Yes, for sure!

[@CompTechMike]

How does your kitty like the RV? 😻

[@MoorExpeditions]

We have two and they both seem to enjoy it. Not as much room to run inside, but we've been letting the more adventurous one outside under supervision. The over-cab bed area has definitely become the designated cat loft lol.

[@jeffevans2203]

You mentioned you added a skirt what do you mean and where did you get it at !!!!

[@bootygoblin784]

Hello guys, looking to get the same unit and Im enjoying the videos and the information. Do you by chance happen to know the dang carrying capacity of the unit? I think they refer to it as empty weight. Been looking all over and evern Cruise America cant seem to find it. Anyway, enjoying the videos, keep em coming. Cheers.

[@andyspinball]

10,500 lbs.

[@BreinGames]

Ive noticed you’ve gone out of your way to not mention how much the rv cost you. You plan on discussing it in the future? Because cost is THE biggest factor when buying an rv.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Hi Brein, thanks for the comment. That wasn't on purpose, but I suppose we hadn't mentioned the exact amount because they are all priced out on Cruise America's website based on condition and miles. We paid the listed price minus the promotion they were running at the time plus tax and full warranties.

[@BreinGames]

MoorExpeditions and yet you still don’t say the price. Just say it man. Or not. Still love the videos either way!

[@MoorExpeditions]

@@BreinGames I'd have to pull paperwork for the exact number but I think it was in the 34k-ish range out-the-door. The 28A's are consistently listed on Cruise America's site for $28-31k, base price.

[@CompTechMike]

LOL. The prices are advertised right on Cruise America's website. You can pay a little more for extras like an awning. All of their prices are clearly listed. Cheers!

[@BreinGames]

Mike Smith yeah they are clearly listed. But that’s not what I’m asking. I wanted to know what they actually paid. I mean, no one pays sticker price right? I’m sure they negotiated a price. I’m not trying to be a jerk, but I don’t buy that he doesn’t remember what he paid. I mean, that’s one of his biggest, if not THE biggest expenditure of his life. And I’m ok with them not wanting to say what they actually paid. But it really seems like he’s toptoeing around it.

[@kokoarts]

Congrats to you guys! The RV turned out to be a really cozy home on road. BTW, Where do you teach English?

[@Frank020]

Hi, can I tent camp there in winter?

[@cottentheact6740]

What is the tow capacity on that thing?

[@cottentheact6740]

Oh and congrats 🎈

[@briancayko]

I think it’s around 5k for this model.

[@denissullivan4683]

Have you used either warranties yet ?if so how’d it go.

[@MoorExpeditions]

Nope, never needed to use them as most of our issues were minor and not work the trouble putting in a claim and repair.

[@yogavnture1]

i want to sspend a month in tahoe area for cross country skiing any info that might help me

[@timhvv]

I think you mentioned a round board that fit over the kitchen sink. Where did you get that and what is the diameter of the sink? I am getting close to buying this same unit. It is fun to imagine how I would outfit it. Thanks for you this video and the helpful hints. Tim (U.P of Michigan)

[@kylewallace6717]

Y’all, they died

how you know that ? what happen to them

Still alive! :)
