He's all better now, but it took being here for a couple days before he recovered. Next time, I will get special chicken-flavored water to help encourage him to drink.

@LizAmazing 4 жыл бұрын

Yep! And if you ever plan to cross the border, convert it to metric. Put both numbers on your visor. We measured ours by climbing on the roof when hitched up (as that changes the height when it is not hitched) and put a 4' level across the highest point. We'd taped a tape measure to the end of the level which we then dropped to the ground.

Absolutely beautiful RV. The full body paint Solitude is my favorite 5th wheel. I grew up in Orange County too and spent my entire career working in OC. As soon as I retired 7 years ago we moved to Central Oregon. Other than the cold winters it reminds me of what Orange County was like when I was growing up in the 60s and 70s. I’m glad you escaped. Love your videos. Enjoy that new rig and safe travels.

After two years with or 1st RV, a 32’ 5th Wheel, during which I would climb up the roof ladder to check clearance, I installed a remote wireless camera that I could view from the cab of my truck. Worked like a charm. I used the back up lines from the camera/monitor setup to determine the clearance. In later RVs, a Class A and Class C, I used these cameras to position the RV in the exact correct position for refueling.

@LizAmazing 3 жыл бұрын

Hi again Doug. Wow! That is brilliant! We want side cameras and I think a roof cam couldn't hurt either. Thanks for the tip.

We too just left our 60 day quarantine spot in South Texas. It seemed very strange to be driving again. No flat tires for us, but here's a tip that perhaps everyone but me knows. We have a TPMS that covers the 6 RV tires and the 4 toad tires. From the time we purchased this RV (last June) we have had trouble with the TPMS losing contact with various tire sensors. Even the ones it did connect with had big variances between the TPMS readings and actual pressures . I contacted the support line for my product and they asked me what I thought was a crazy question... "Do you have a thermometer with wireless sensors?" I do, and have the head unit in the kitchen and sensors in the fridge, freezer, rear ladder outside and the wet bay. Long story but they run on the same wireless frequency as virtually all TPMS systems do and wreak havoc with them. I never considered that as a potential issue. So if you have sporadic TPMS issues and have a wireless thermometer, try taking the batteries out of the monitor and all sensors. Worked for me! (BTW, they make some wireless thermometers that use Bluetooth which does not interfere). Glad you are ok! Enjoy and stay safe!

@LizAmazing 4 жыл бұрын

Wow, Terry, what a fabulous tip. How interesting. People swear by their TPMS- we don't have one yet but haven't ruled one out. The truck has it. We are really glad to get back to Rv life...it felt really strange to be stationary for so long. Happy and safe travels to you!

Good win dad dad, congrats! Great video Liz and Paul! You are right, know the height of your rig... I have measured ours and I even made a label and stuck it on the dash of my truck. So when I’m approaching that bridge or awning that looks a little tight I don’t second guess myself. Also, I made the label in feet, inches, and meters - I’d be sad to get a conversion wrong in my head approaching a low obstacle while moving 100 km/h :). Great video you guys, well done shaking out the cobwebs. Stay safe!

Enjoying your videos.... I finally had enough with finding the gas stations that we could fit in and all the hustle there at the truck stops .... we have a 40ft Montana and a dually long-bed truck and this was my most stressed while traveling... so, we got a external diesel fuel tank for the truck bed so, we could get our 300 to 350 miles trip in without needing to stop for fuel. Once we park for the day, hubby parks us at the RV park and I make dinner while he goes fill up the truck again.... no more dragging the rig into those truck stops or small gas stations! It's been wonderful traveling with plenty of fuel for each leg.. maybe you can do that to your truck.... it was well worth it!! Hope to meet someday!!

Interesting video, thanks. My wife and I were in Oceano and decided to head back to Canada as the virus scare was starting to heat up and arrived home in early March. It is a very nice area to visit. On the way back I worked my way over to the #5 instead of going up the coast. I suggest purchasing a tire pressure monitoring system for your trailer. You never expect a flat with new tires but the peace of mind the system provides is worth the few hundred dollars.

@LizAmazing 4 жыл бұрын

Yes! We are going to get one. This trip taught us that. We wanted to go up the 101 but it just made more sense to do like you said and go up the #5. We arrived in Oceano on March 1 so I bet we just missed you. Stay safe in Canada and hope to see you on the road someday!

I thought I might leave you with a little trick my sister and I used to change a tire on our RV. We used the Trailer-aid, drove on to it and at the end of it we stacked up the leveling blocks and drove on to them. This way we didn't have to use any man power to get the trailer lifted up to change the tire. Made things much easier.

Between our RV the tow bar and a small pick up truck in tow we have about 65 ft of rolling stock heading down the highway... We use the AllStays app to scout out travel plazas and truck stops along the way for refueling... Always plenty of vertical clearance there, ample room to maneuver and temporary parking for taking a break for a few minutes... We try to avoid driving through major urban areas when possible and are always wary of getting into a tight spot... Backing up is not even an option with some tow bars... Thanks for the video!...

We turned unto an older gas station in South Carolina that had a steep upgrade hill going into it. It wasn't until we got to the top & going under the canopy, we realized we were too short.the height notice was not on the canopy but at the door to the inside counter area. 10'8'' versus us at 11'5''. We almost stopped in time. Our advise is when you are getting tired but still have to go, know you are more prone to mistakes! slow down and double check! Also remember some states allow older stations to be grandfathered in and do not have to meet the new regulations.

Oh my goodness. I am so sorry about your camper! And you make an excellent point about being tired. Once, I drove my 11'5" camper van into a car wash!! Took just the roof vent off.

We have had a couple of small issues with our travel trailer. Part of the weight distribution hitch broke on the way home from a 300 mile trip. I was able to use tools (always carry tools) to jury rig it together to get home. Once backing the trailer up, the electrical hitch cord from truck to trailer got in the way of a tight turn. Cut into it, shorted it out. The brakes were in full lock on the trailer. I panicked until I realized I just had to unhook the batteries to release the brakes. Stuff happens! We camp at the Oregon state campground down by Winchester Bay.

Not very good when you get a flat while traveling. I know the feeling. Took rv out on second trip of the year this past memorial weekend. When we arrived at the campsite, one of our neighbors told me it looked like one of my rear tires on my dually was flat. Sure enough it was. I had checked everything before we headed out including tires. Thank God we made it safely to our destination as we had no clue we had a flat on the inner wheel.

I know most RV Owner's Manuals are generic, but there should be a page in the manual for you to input your pertinent information regarding your specific model; height, width, length(since the model number doesn't usually reflect the vehicle length anymore), tire size and inflation specs. I love all your information. When you said you were keeping it real, you definitely meant it.

We recommend that you measure and put that information on your dash or visor. Since this time, we got the tracker app, which allows you to enter in your size information so that it hopefully will not take you under bridges that are too low. Thanks for watching and for your comment.

He had a rough couple days here until he finally got back to himself on Wednesday. The main issue is he stopped drinking on Day 2 and got himself sick.

Consider this: You have a massive rig, 13' 4" you said, and I believe the legal limit without a special permit is 13' 6". It wouldn't be that difficult to attach a laser pointer (or rifle laser sight) on top of the forward air conditioner controlled remotely from the cabin.Then find a level parking lot with a tall wall you could discreetly mark @ 13' 6" or whatever you decide is safe, calibrate it at several distances and attach it securely. Take into account that your height changes depending on your load and its distribution, tire temperature and, believe it or not, speed; the rig rises at higher speeds. Overpasses aren't always level either, the far side could be lower than the side facing you and the approach may not be level either. All things considered, maybe a modern day periscope, (a camera) would be best. Good luck!

Oooh,that is smart. There is even some sort of device on the market that also does that. The downside is that you'd probably not get enough notice going down the road. BUT it would help going under questionable awnings. Here is the rest of the story about our flat tire: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pcqGi7t9nL7Dcqs.html

We're 13'6" tall, and don't have a lot of clearance problems on "U.S." Highways, and no problems on Interstates. However, we run into numerous problems on U.S. routes running through local municipalities, especially smaller Cities and Villages. They are often times listed at a certain clearance,, then the State or locality resurfaces the roadway, which sometimes LOWERS the posted height of the clearance, WITHOUT a new notice!! Worse yet, NOBODY knows what the new clearance is! At one spot, which had been a 13'8" RR underpass. My wife and I knew they had recetnly resuraced the roadway, so we called the local DPW, who referred us to the P.D., who referred us to the local State DOT office, who didn't know what the new clearance was. Finally, with the assistance of a local Police Officer, and a nearby hardware store, we measure the clearance ourselves, it was 13'4"!! Luckily there was a nearby road we could back into, and take a detour. I always tell new RV'rs that it's tons of fun, but you and your spouse, partner, significant other, etc., have to be aware of your surroundings all the time!. (We have enough small dings and scratches along the bottome of our RV to prove it!!

Very true! You know how that feels to be towing your home and all your possessions behind you. Whew! Glad that you got it worked out with the low bridge. 13'6" is TALL! Safe travels and hope to meet you on the road someday.

Just a tip. When your running a large RV I would strongly recommend investing in a commercial GPS. One that allows you to add the dimensions of your rig. Trust me I drove tractor trailers for years and it saved me a whole lot of headaches. Just a thought.

Yes. That sounds like a good plan. Thank you!
