We worried about our trailer being stolen with our animals in it. . So we have a lock on the front of the Rig, and a Brahma tire lock. This is a large bright orange lock which blocks the lug nuts, and goes around the tire preventing movement without the key. Also we changed the storage locks on our rig because the units are fitted with common locks and common keys used on every rv lock.

All great points! Have to love the guy who worries about running out of ice 😂 and then tripping on his guy wires - I use lights to show tripping hazards, but he was funny. All of these people were wonderful - loved the gentleman at the end - he gets it!

I really liked #15 "Make the most of every moment". We have met, and continue to meet, so many great people in our RV travels. We strive to have "first time" experiences daily. 😎🌴

I'm not camping right now but I want to get in on this. My main worries 1. Harassment from the local authorities for whatever reason and them not being very reasonable or concerned about me. 2. Being stranded with no backup because I wasn't properly equipped.

My favourite has got to be 'worry we don't have enough ice'. Such a wide variety of concerns. btw: We broke down once in France. The recovery service was awesome. They paid for hotels, hire car home, flight back to France to get the van, trains and taxis. We only had deductions for money we would have paid out for campsites for the rest of the holiday.

Me too! Actually, I've been dreaming of it for a long time. Started researching it when I took a new job with a long commute and was caregiver for my mom, who had dementia. Now, I have a general plan and a goal. I plan to reach the goal of buying my first T@g next summer. And blah, blah, blah.

Great content as usual! I really appreciated the guy at the end and his thoughts on being open to unexpected experience and where that may take you. That applies to life in general and not just camping, so great advice. I always learn something from these videos that I had not considered before, so thanks for continuing to post them. BTW, wifey and I were hoping to meet you and Kendrick at U Camp this year, but it was sold out by 1134 when I went to the site! That’s a nice testament to the loyalty NuCamp owners feel for the product and the experience. Next year I’ll be sitting there with mouse in hand at 1129! Take care.

Hi Gregory! I agree with you. I put it last on purpose because it was definitely my favorite as well. It would be great to meet you at uCamp... there are a lot of campgrounds nearby that nuCamp is working with. You could book one of those and just buy the day pass?

Lots of good advice. We worry about filling up our waste water tanks when we're off the grid or at a campground without full hookups. Our solution is one of those portable blue tote tanks. We still try hard to be conservative with our water usage.

@MandyLea 4 жыл бұрын
A lot of that is going to be a decision based on your vehicle and how you like to camp. Do you want to drop of the trailer and drive around? Do you already have a truck that can handle a camper? etc.

Lori I feel ya! Same here! Been dreaming of doing this! Hopefully within two or three years maybe I’ll bite the bullet and buy a camper Whether it be a mini travel trailer or camper van and maybe start in baby steps!😁👍🏻👍🏻

Nice video, I liked it. But one of the comments was really dangerous. The guy had an extra battery in the gas bottle compartment. Never ever put an electric battery next to your gas tank. In Europe, this is illegal, because the gas bottle can have a gas leak and boooom...
