Carolina to Indiana to Michigan. Then to So. Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington. Then down the west coast to Arizona then Texas and back to Florida. I’ll be 80 in May and this has been my dream. Hubs was a career military Veteran and he passed 16 mod ago but I’m taking him with me in Spirit. Thank you for all the great tips and suggestions. My TST gives me better confidence about the tires.

Thanks for a great video. We found that many of your tips are on our checklist too. Before I retired, we would make long drives because we had time constraints. I remember a few years ago when we had a 15-hour drive day and the only way we survived was to stop every hour. We allow our Fitbit to tell us that "it's time to move" and then we'll find an exit or pullout and walk around the rig until we get our 250 steps. We take a potty break, refill our water bottles, and then take off for another hour. Now that I've retired, we don't drive at night and we try to keep our distance to less than 350 miles. Most importantly, we try to smell the roses along the way.

Longest drive was 683 miles. Don't ever want to do that again but had to make it to the Albuquerque Balloon festival and had 2.5 days to go 1400 miles. All interstate and relied on rest stops and truck stops only (love the fuel card!). We always try to arrive before dark, but in few cases we couldn't, we picked an RV park with pull thru sites and wide access so we don't have issues. But always get out and look before parking. Love y'all so much and thank you for what you do!

I love Discount Tire. I was in Jacksonville and needed a valve replaced and a leak checked on a tire of my 3500 dually. They worked for over an hour and charged me nothing. They said just come back which would made sense if I lived in the area, but I don't. He said just go to any other Discount Tire.

Phil, for your problem cabinet, is it possible to install a "child protection" latch? One that you open the door enough to slip your finger between the door and cabinet to push the nylon latch down to release and open the door the rest of the way. Another thought, I just bought a trigger operated digital tire gauge and fill from Habor Freight that I can use on my dual wheels for about $54...no guessing on the pressure...yea! It works great. It's 2 pounds off from TPMS so I just make the adjustment and I'm done. I'm not familiar with your compressor set up you may have to get a couple of couplings to hook it up. See ya, Ron, Plano, TX

I like Lov's but it is the lowest discount. Hearer a tip for you. When it has been raining raise one end/tilt the coach so you drain any water on top the slides before you bring them in. Otherwise there can be water on top the slide when it is in. It can run off inside the coach and if you are lucky and hit a small downgrade it can pore right down your neck. Yes I HATE arriving after dark. Did I say I HATE arriving after dark.

We are the folks all of you guys fly by on the road. 60 is our maximum speed. So much more economical.

I use the Allstays app as well I just paid for the new subscription I think it was about $31- 33 for a year. I also use the app for overhead clearances with my 13.5 ft 5th wheel. We love this tool. As for the TSD card we don't use it very much anymore. The truck stops usually have the fuel price jacked up so that even with the discount it's the same or less at one of the regular fuel stations paying regular price. After we disconnect from the 5th wheel I just fill up in the afternoon. I know not always an option with a motor home.

I can do a 1200 mile trip without having to refuel, however I like to fuel up right before we stop for the night. We prefer to stay overnight a casinos but we're not drinkers. I have been RVing for over 50 years yet we still use a check list. The issue with Open Roads and Flying J with the discount is that Flying J has an exclusive discount for RVs with Good Sams.

380 miles!?!? That's a short day!!!! Just kidding! I average 700miles/day!! But I have a 180/3hr rule, stop every 180miles or 3 hrs whichever comes first, walk at least 3 laps around my truck and trailer at minimum then get back on the road. This provides 2 main things, 1. It gets blood moving to lessen the chances of blood clots from extended sitting times, and 2 provides an opportunity to check your equipment during your trip so kicking tires, checking lights, checking that your freight, or in your case doors are secured. I do the same whether I'm hauling my 40ft gooseneck or my 38ft rv camper as well as just plain old driving without towing anything.

We never know where we will stop without Phaeton, but ‘hope’ to get to a location we’ve been to before. I love to drive, so on our current trip to Arizona from southwestern Canada I had one stint of driving was 13 1/2 hours, which was leaving in the dark, and arriving in the dark, often using Casinos for a sleep/go! We are part timers, so owe don’t have a fuel discount card, but like Stacy, my wife uses ‘GasBuddy’ keeping an eye on diesel prices, and have found California tone the worst pricing, so we do try and keep our stay in their state to a minimum! Our coach came with a TPMS system, albeit unsure of the brand and does a fine job. We where in a hurry when leaving, as snow was forecasted so we never could find the receiver for it’s tire sensors, so we’ve not used it this trip. Will have to rectify that soon, so I’ll look at getting one for both the coach & towed!

This may be us but we have found that Pilot, Flying J, Loves etc etc are way more expensive per gallon to start with so they build in the discount to take off the supposed discount. We buy our fuel off highway in towns and if you go to Arco or Maverick or Valero they tend to be up to 50 cents per gallon cheaper than on the highway.

LOL, LOL 10:00 looks like our bus on travel day, it's worse if we recently went to Costco. Even after 2yrs the first travel day when we change areas we are always late, something always slows us down, but no matter what I shut sown before sunset. I've been having the same issue with the jacks, but mine is the same one, it comes up but is slow to lock in 50% of the time. We don't always use the discount cards I check gas buddy for better deals on diesel plus I hate the chain truck stops, you always have to wait on some bonehead trucker camping on the fuel island. My biggest tip on moving day is "stay claim", don't stress each other, things will happen, and if you see a fellow RVer struggling go help them out.

As I sat on the roof, covering our damage with Eternabond tape, another rv-er walked by and said we were the third one damaged in that site this month. 😡 It was our fault, we didn’t Get Out And Look because it was a wide pull through site. Had I gotten out and walked the site, I’d have seen that one branch angled across the site more than was apparent from our approach. Anyhow, we were feeling for you guys and wanted to see your damage and find out what you needed to do about it.

We use Tot Loc magnetic lock on our pantry door. It works great, no problems. They are available at home centers marketed for locking out children from cabinets while allowing convenient operation with the magnet. Once parked you can lock out the catch and use the door without the magnet. Safe travels.

Excellent idea! And only “turning them on” on travel days is perfect! I’ve put these on many cabinets over the years (be sure to locate them similarly on each cabinet so you don’t forget where the magnet goes to unlock them!)

Can't tell what name brand your motorhome is. Ours is a 2010 Tiffin Allegro Bus 43QGP. Because ours has the PowerGluide chassis it sets closer to the ground. If your has the powerGluide chassis then you might take extra preclusions when driving at night. They have these Gator tails that you do not want to run over. The gator tail is only parts of usually tire rubber. In my case being lower to the ground this peace of wheel rubber got caught in my radiator causing the side Fan blade. To beat the H*ll out of everything it could. Well let me see it broke on fan blade and bent or made weak the other blades. This made the engine to run hot. This goes on and on . The amazing part this happen Sept 6,2022 and we are still at Cummins in Washington. This is not or doesn't have anything to do with then. The thing about it is it could be 3 to 4 more months before we get back on the road.

OMG, we did the exact same thing with the tire sensor 4 weeks ago. We stopped at a pizza place overnight, and I tried to make it around curb in the parking lot, and our toad's wheel just brushed up against the curb, our TPMS, went off a few min later, and I went out to see that the sensor was at a 45 Degree angle with the last few threads broke off of the aluminum stem. Luckily I had the sensor, but like you I couldn't add any air to the tire. I lost air, but did get it to stop letting our air. The next morning we went to Discount Tire, and they replaced the stem but the TPMS was still good, and because we purchased the tires from them the cost was $0. It took two hours out of our travel day, and taught me a lesson. Just disconnect the dang toad if it gets tight. That is a lot faster than the two hours at discount.
