1,100 Miles in 3 Days...RV Living in a HEAT WAVE

[@oidirk]

Of all the rv KZbinrs you guys really make me smile. You are so genuine and enjoyable to watch I look forward to your videos every week. Although some days I feel for Craig and his stress level. I travel full time in a 43 foot toy hauler and I really understand his stresses. Keep it up guys!

[@wildrvlife]

Thank you so much for that compliment!! And thank you for joining us each week. You definitely understand the stress of big rig towing then! Some of the roads out there will surely make you tense up, or other drivers on the road. Lol those are probably the worst

[@kevinplunkett6393]

A big metal hose clamp over the Valterra valve works pretty good to hold it on without gluing it. At a truck stop reefer is a type of box trailer that is refrigerated. The cooling unit “reefer” runs on diesel. So if you select tractor and reefer it keeps the pump running and allows you to pull forward to fill the reefer tank up with diesel. It’s still just regular #2 diesel not the off road red diesel. Keep the good videos going.

[@comeandtakeit82]

I can't believe you don't have more subscribers. Even people who don't RV or camp should love y'all's videos. Y'all are cute, funny, smart, and never boring. I only watch y'all and the Hanks. Keep it up!

[@wildrvlife]

Thank you so much!! It means a lot to get good feedback like this. Thanks for watching!

[@MissKapkee]

I second that!

[@drinkinslim]

For the amount of time they've been on KZbin, they're doing REALLY WELL for subscribers I think. They'll just keep growing. :)

[@philipfareio4445]

Go girl

[@Oldoregonnurse]

I agree

[@bobbyabner4842]

As a former truck driver. I never go to a blue beacon unless it my last option. They use the same water to wash the next vehicle only it’s ran through a filter. So that’s why you see those streaks after washing. I call them the Steaking beacon. Mom and pop truck washes are a lot better and cheaper.

[@robinghunt]

I tune in for Craig’s antics!

[@carolowens693]

We workcamped in Mackinac City the summer of 2023 (same year y'all went there). We made 20 + trips over the Mighty Mac Bridge. It scared the daylights out of me the first several times and we weren't pulling the RV. Y'all just drove over it like it was nothing. We did end up taking the RV up to the UP to Lake Superior, so we went over the bridge twice towing. Can't believe how calm y'all were about it.

[@jeremyj612]

So cool you guys decided to do Harvest Host. I don’t drink either so it’s why I haven’t paid a lot of attention to it. Curious how you guys end up liking it. Thanks for another fun video!

[@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog]

We don’t drink either, but we love staying at the farms - there are so many options! Highly recommend Harvest Hosts. 😁 We even have a Harvest Host playlist. 😉 kzbin.info/aero/PLUisLIU4g3rWVaiDK6vl2fpUMGHShkCNM&si=n9UMMMIlFkwYoCDl

[@trevorpowell4872]

Omg I can’t believe you didn’t give us more Mackinac Bridge content on your way over! It’s MI’s pride and joy. Also I am catching up on old videos… I hope you took the ferry to the island while you were there!

[@curtmyers6273]

Blue beacons are commonly known as streakin beacons! I would use them when i was an owner/operator. Some do a good job some not so much. But if they're not busy you can go back around. Most of the time there's a line.

[@wildrvlife]

LOL we have just learned of this nickname through the comments on this video. I was surprised there wasn't a line when we showed up!

[@diannaalmazan1529]

At blue beacon, you can go back around if they missed spots, I do it with my semi all the time

[@wildrvlife]

Ahhh good to know!!

[@sheryltoliver9975]

Yup I was gonna say the same go back around show them what they missed.

[@barbaratucker8779]

We usually travel about 65 unless the speed limit is lower. Life’s too short to be in a hurry!!

[@wildrvlife]

We are usually at about 65 too. The frustration does admittedly come out when we’re behind someone driving 45 in a 55-60 speed limit area 😆

[@JeffGarrison-xz9qq]

Used blue beacon once a week for 42 years.. yes 42 years. Fast great job then when they uped there game adding rain x....game changer ..you two ROCK.

[@thegarrettsinsavannah]

It's not stand upside down and drink frog juice, Craig, to get rid of hiccups. It's bend over and drink water from a glass or coffee mug. And also try not to let it go up your nose while you're doing it. It works every time!

[@wildrvlife]

I'm pretty sure frog juice is involved, lol.

[@paularochon8034]

You can ALWAYS go back thru truck wash having them clean missed areas.

[@carolowens693]

We've been to Blue Beacon many times. The last time, they knocked a tail light cover off the camper. Several times ago, it caused our fridge to stop working. It messed up a censor or something, but hubs was able to figure it out and get it going again.

[@MrBdjoker2000]

Not sure if this as been addressed. Reefer fuel is not dyed as farm diesel is. Reefer fuel is the same fuel you use in the truck engine. It is not charged a road tax. That’s the only difference.

[@philipfareio4445]

Glue it

[@amielawhorn3537]

Go to a movie like the olden days. 😊😊 its nice and cool. I usually take my blanket from the car in case its too cold. They have the REALLY comfy seats and cheaper than gas 😊😊

I’m a BDW host in south eastern Washington, and also have a property in Minnesota. We meet some of the coolest people. Have not done the full harvest host yet for when we are traveling. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@wildrvlife]

Well thank you for being a BDW host!! we have used them a number of times and always enjoyed talking with the hosts, I agree that it helps connect you with some awesome people!

[@tommoore310]

I would go back and show them what they missed.

[@ChrisParker-fs7dq]

I have used them and they did an excellent job, I had absolutely no complaints.

[@WanderingWilfords]

Ol’ Craig I had to laugh when you started to sing “On the Road Again.” Every time we head out in our MotorHome I sing that song, I’m glad I’m not the only one :)

[@lifeswhimsytutelage]

Hey guys! Thanks for bring up the Valterra valve issue - I have had the same ? / problem. I read in the comments a fix. If you don’t have it yet, get the Open Roads card. Can save a lot of $$ on the diesel. Safe travels.

[@wildrvlife]

ooh glad you found your answer too!! and yes, we need to sign up for that! thank you!

[@mr_burky]

I second this. I hardly ever pay credit price at all major chain truck stops. The biggest cost to run a semi truck is fuel. Maverik Nitro Fuel Card gives you 10 cents per gallon savings on gas and fuel

[@grbadboy]

I live just south of Grand Rapids Michigan, i love your videos. It never gets old crossing the Mackinac bridge, however it does get sketchy in the winter time!

[@wildrvlife]

thank you for watching!! and I can't imagine crossing that bridge with snow and I bet it can get icy too! Actually, I can't really imagine being in Michigan in the winter at all 🤣 (but I am from Florida lol)

[@daveroe8612]

First thing I would have done is plug in the 50 amp, then cranked up both A/C's,😁 then level and set up.....lol . You guys are the best.....I love how you guys roll with it no matter what happens, RVing at its best!

[@wildrvlife]

hahah we got that A/C on pretty quick after arrival! thank you so much for joining us on our adventures!

[@GallionAdventures]

We are host for HH and allow more nights and power. It’s nice meeting other rvers and having them stay with us while we’re not traveling. Hope you enjoy the HH side.

[@smiller6238]

Just put a tap screw in the body of the valve to pin it to the mount. Do NOT glue it......

[@wildrvlife]

Thank you!! Good idea!

[@markseamans4682]

On the top! Not the bottom, it will leak over time. I just replaced that section on our rig due to poor placement of the screw. I plan to use some good electrical tape. Done, no holes.

Would plumber’s tape work?

[@markseamans4682]

@@Elizabeth-rq1vi Oh, that silicone stuff? Yeah, probably. It grips well. Comes off clean too. I might use that instead!

[@longgone2023]

We will be getting our Brinkley in November. So excited. We have watched you all faithfully since you got yours. About hiccups. I get them several times a day. Every time I eat, get out of bed, roll over. It’s just part of my life. That trip of yours seems like a really long one. We’ve gone from S.F. to Phoenix and stopped over twice, and had bad weather over the grapevine pass, sleeting sideways and zero visibility. This was in March in a 35 ft motorhome not towing anything. They were long during days! We do plan to get a Valterra gate valve since we don’t like surprises and plan to tuck our generator closer to the tailgate. We already have it, a Predator from Harbor Freight. One of our first long trips in the Brinkley will be back over that darn grapevine to visit Rich Solar for our install. I’ll mention the fuse issues when we go down there. We are starting out without an inverter, just a BB GC3 and will have to just wing it that first night if we stop. At least we know how to get there, and plan to catch a NASCAR race in Fontana. AFTER solar goes on. We decided on the 2900 for size and weight, no dogs currently but maybe another schnauzer in the future. Under20 lbs. We joined the Brinkley Facebook group - I’ve never had Facebook ever and it’s a bit scary for me since I’m very private but I did it. If you guys are on there I will look for you. Sorry so long, lots to cover! ❤ you both. And by the way, I chew gum when I’m driving, never any other time!

[@nancyschwartz892]

Long weekend…no reservations…. GOOD LUCK!!!!!

[@ColoradoTodd]

I'm really surprised you can't bring in the slides just using the power from the truck wiring. We don't have a monster land barge like you guys, but all the RVs we've had would roll in the slides just from the truck, even if the RV batteries were dead.

[@AlexBeckleysRVs]

They apparently never turned the ignition on and started it. The altinator would be more than Enough power.

[@wildrvlife]

We ended up using the truck to juice up the batteries some. You also can, in most cases, use the power from the truck to pull up jacks and slides in, but there is a potential to blow fuses because you "should" really only be using your RV batteries to power them to ensure correct voltage, etc. But, I think many people do it all the time without problems.

[@ColoradoTodd]

@@wildrvlifeYeah, I've never blown a fuse, but you have a much bigger rig than ours, so your slides and jacks may pull more current than ours.

[@StevenFord-ml2he]

I'm a truck driver I've been in streaking Beacon a laugh. That's why they call them streaking because they streak everything up. And if you don't like how they wash it, you can always go around and make them wash it again.

[@raystanton238]

Craig, instead of fuses on the solar maybe use in-line weather proof circuit breakers. Use breakers about 20% higher rated than the highest amperage your solar produces. Adding a dc to dc charger is a great ad-on, not hard to do. It will manage the charge rate for your lithium batteries so they don't try to pull too many amps from your trucks alternator. Safe travels!

[@irenehinojosa6629]

Michigan has more lakes than any state. For those that have never been there everyone is shocked at our Great Lakes. Enjoy the beautiful state of Michigan there is a lot to see there! ❤

[@walkerhound4055]

1100 miles over 3 days doesn't happen for me anymore. Used to be like that in my first 2 years. Now that is a 5 day trip or 2 weekends if I don't travel during the workweek. :) I agree. BB is ok when in a pinch. Wish more RV parks allowed you to wash your rig/tow vehicle. I don't let BB use any brushes and no acid. Things they use on the semi-trucks. Too harsh on the clear coat and I don't trust the brushes are not contaminated. You are so right about how much time/energy we put into knowing the weather where we are and where we are going. I love Windy for weather where I am at. You found a pretty cool weather app for travel days! Tollbooths stress me out. Lately I have been getting lucky and they just bill my license plate. Glad you made it with no traffic incidents. Another enjoyable episode. p.s. Those rear door covers for the dogs that you mentioned using in your truck in a previous vid, are now in mine and I love them. Appreciate the Pro Tip. :)

[@wildrvlife]

We try not to do these long hauls too often either because they are quite exhausting! Good points about the BB wash. And so glad those door covers are working for you!! They have really helped protect our doors. I know they'd be covered in scratches if we didn't have them. Thank you for watching!

Ole’ Craig needs to get a Bug-A-Salt gun for those flies. Adds a little fun to killing them vs a fly swatter lol Mackinac Island is so much fun. We have taken our rv to Michigan the past two summers. Traverse City is awesome as well. We stay at Holiday Campground. It’s so nice and the asylum tour is a must. Love the channel.

[@wildrvlife]

Thank you. Lol, them salt guns do seem fun. Also, the island was amazing.

[@Jim-xz1ew]

Fun trip. We are full timers and have been for years. We are never in a hurry to get anywhere. Thats the whole point for us as retirees. We get there when we do. And I drive if I want to. Or hang out at a Harvest or boon dock between the RV parks or state parks/ national parks. And try to get as many Geocach hits along the way. Never in a hurry. NO STRESS!! Have fun!

We have four 300AH batteries in the bay of our Z3100 and it is enough to run 1 of our ACs overnight (8-10 hours depending on temps). Wanted to make sure we could boondock for at least 1 night in hotter weather and it has worked great over last 2 months.

We recently brought our Chevy Silverado and 23’ Airstream (no citrus) through the Blue Beacon Truck Wash outside of Knoxville. My husband was thrilled with the job because it usually takes us all day to wash both vehicles. I, on the other hand, found that for the $93. (Including a nice tip) it wasn’t worth the cost. There was still a dirt film left behind that I could drag my finger through and see that the Airstream was not as clean as when we give our rig a nice “bath” ourselves.

[@adventuresofMomDadGirlWhiteDog]

[@danajones61]

We went 1010 miles Labor Day weekend and lost our tow vehicle two hours into the trip. Had vehicle towed. Enterprise Truck Rental brought us a truck to rent ($2300 for 10 days) and we continued on our way. Purpose of our trip was to take our Bronco to CO for trail riding, so that was a bust. But otherwise, it was a good trip. 18 days to get a fuel pump, returning rental truck 100 miles away and then 100 miles to go pick up the Bronco when it’s ready are all minor inconveniences. We don’t have any choice but just to go with the flow…. We boondocked through Harvest Hosts which worked out great, thankfully. Forgot to mention, we were broken down in the edge of the road where the speed limit was 75 and we had two dogs. Luckily, our generator only weighs 45 lbs and my husband hooked it up so we could sit in the TT comfortably (100 degrees outside) but terrified bc trucks coming by at 75 mph rocked the 15 ft TT like crazy! I really thought we might die.

[@wildrvlife]

Oh no!! that was surely a trip to remember I bet. Too bad you didn't get to take the Bronco to CO, that would have been real fun, but I'm glad you were still able to make the best of it! That is definitely the story of RV life, just having to go with the flow, and you never know where that flow is going to take you!

[@jackson15plus33]

I have had trucks and rvs for 40 years. In my experience it’s the same with both and all over the nation, some truck washes are better than others as it is with any service. They’ll never get it 100% clean but it’s like you said, it gets the bugs off and it looks better than being dirty

To kill flies if you tie rubber bands together you can stretch them out and aim at the fly and kill them without harming what they are perched on. If you use light weight bands knot the end to make a small killing ball. I have done this for many years and it works great and is fun besides. I hope you try it as I think you will have fun and kill more flies quickly. Great videos. I was fulltime back in 2000 to 2002. God bless you guys.
