You’ve probably already noticed this, but someone will always have something negative to say no matter how well you do things. Regarding Louie, a lot of folks don’t realize a backyard is just another cage. Dogs need to wander and explore beyond their “cage”. As such, your lifestyle is perfect for pets. Not only will your pup have fewer anxieties due to exposure to a multitude of different landscapes, people, and smells, but he will be his healthiest mentally and physically as a result. Don’t listen to the naysayers cause you’re doing great. Love your videos and your travels. Thanks for sharing!

Sprinter emission problems are no joke and the prices to fix them is crazy expensive. Sold mine and bought a Ford Transit.

Hello back. Hope you enjoyed your break.

I back off my weight distribution before backing.

Paint-less dent repair . 100 bucks. Did the same thing to my Rebel. Can’t even tell when there done.

Another good video, guys. I was not expecting to hear "Luna mezzo mare" as a musical cue when you guys first pulled into the park, but one of the most famous recordings of that song was from another "Louie" (Louis Prima), so I guess that works. That song always makes me think of The Godfather. As others below have mentioned, a lot of the people who might criticize you for how you keep your dog leave their own dogs alone at home all day five days a week, even if they have a yard. My dogs had 1/2 an acre fenced in with a dogdoor and both of them would have gladly traded that space to be able to spend almost all day every day with my wife and I, even if it went riding in the back seat of a truck a lot. Notice how happy people's dogs are when they come home at the end of the day, or how happy they are when their owners take them someplace in the car? There's a reason for that. Louie gets that almost 24/7.

You need prayer and good luck.

Love Louie!......................well, you guys also!

Loui is lovely. Please make a special video on Loui only. His temperament, behaviour, food and difficulties since you got him from the breeder a few months ago. You are fortunate and Loui much more as he is always in your company and enjoying walks and new places.

Bad things happen in three but your three were a good three to have happen. Bright side no one ended up in emergency. No one ended up in jail and no one ended up dead. Things could have been worse. Really enjoying your videos and trips. Give Louis a hug for me, he is adorable.

You know they do!!!! I find myself counting them to make sure I've hit 3 then I can think, "all clear!" Those accordion hoses don't give you much warning when they go!! LOL! I"ve driven right by the "endless no parking sign" display on I-95!!!

Wow, Louie has gotten so big! Thanks for sharing the good as well as the bad. Cheers!

Im sure your dog gets way more exercise than most dogs. Thanks for the posts!

You might try going to a hail dent specialist for your tailgate.

Wow, what a rough start to your day! Those warranty stories were scary. How nerve-wracking to have to go through that when you're RVing full time. Good tip for auto leveling. We are in a tiny camper so we have to do all of our leveling manually, anyway, but we like collecting tips for if and when we get a bigger setup someday. Louey looks pretty chill. I think he's enjoying having so many new states to sniff! 😊

Sorry about your truck. 🥂 here's to better days ahead.

I have a rule I go by. NEVER place anything but my feet on the bumper. This, after driving off 20 years ago with my daughters eye glasses on the bumper after she placed them there to shoot some basketball. I've nearly lost hitch pins, etc. from doing the same. I just place them on the ground now.

Louie's getting BIG!

A paintless dent repair person can fix your dent. Most dealerships have someone that does that either in house or someone from outside.

I did the same thing to my 2016 F150 within four months

For that dent, the tailgate is aluminum and can easily be repaired at one of the "paintless dent repair" shops. About $60 to $80. Usually good results. Good luck!

Glad your ok.

Ironically we were in the same boat in Cottonwood at the Ford dealership in March and then just outside of Vegas with a split hose after dumping, I was just flushing out the tank. I noticed a very small pin hole with droplets of water. Upon closer examination it was just about to split. Thankfully Walmart was close & I replaced the hose.We are picking up our new ORV 26RKV ~ the 15th. I am in the process of assembling a new Andersen hitch. Tired of the old spring bar WDH hitch we've used for the last 6 years and thought I'd give this a try. Best to the both of you.

Loui looks so good. It was good to see you guys again.

WoW Chris glad here AAron, Didn't jet a B water or a G water lol shower lol... Once he noticrd the hose split... How mutch was a new hose & was it any thicker hose???

I never used the stock hose in our new RV...still have it in the sleeve... the better aftermarket one is still great now I wonder if it has a useful life of how many years/dumps? We always carry a plug kit for the tires...never needed it...which is why we have it I guess..... so glad it was your grey....wow

Don’t beat yourself up over the little dings in your truck. It’s a working truck and though we want to keep them looking in showroom condition, life happens. Harbor Freight sells suction cup dent pullers. I think that would work on your ding.

Wow the luck😞got this hose and it's amazing,red and black .,stinky slinky couldn't fit in bumper, bought a red and black tote,stuck it in my storage 🤣feel your pain prayers to you guys🙏❤️

NO PARKING You get it, I get it however Truck Drivers DON"T. It a shame to block the natural beauty with a sign or a hundred, you have never been able to park there. Federal law prohibits parking on Interstates and or the ramps.

Grandma cut it 😀

Hi y’all from Florida . Just discovered you guys and I’m hooked as we have a similar floorplan with our 2020 22rbs Cougar by Keystone . Don’t you just love it ! Anyway , May I suggest you purchase the Anderson Levelers ? They are bright red and curvy . They REALLY help better than those yellow stacking squares . Ck them out and keep this content going . I really do appreciate Chris’s cooking and recipes . 😎

enjoy every day guys. love your videos. we just bought a Jayco 212QB and can't wait to live in it full time soon! Take care and come and visit Canada some day

Well, at least you were the one that put the dent in the tailgate. The first one is always the hardest!

It’s a good thing you were in the automotive industry and knew to check the warranty for other states! Have you ever vlogged about what you did before?

I can’t wait for your pup to hit all 50 states!!

Do you find you don’t use the bikes as much as you did before Louie?

Nice. You drove with a nail in the trailer tire. 😱 luckily it did not blow or go flat on the hwy. can not wait to see the video about Savanna. We are looking at going there this fall.

They make these little suction-cups that pull out dents like that. Walmart $15. Called a “dent lifter.”

My hose split yesterday too...I think maybe the hot sun.... hopefully you guys are good for a while.

Was surprised you proceeded with a travel day with a nail in your tire. Hope you enjoyed Savanna

I think Louie has a way better life than a dog left in a fenced backyard all day - you are doing great with that sweet pup! I didn’t know Aaron was in the automotive industry. What did he do? Cuz you know my mind has him doing crazy things like making monster trucks! We head out next week - for our big Tennessee trip - I’m so excited! We almost didn’t get to go cuz I had a pretty bad accident in our tow vehicle - fortunately the damage is just cosmetic and it’s drivable - just not very pretty! And we have to wait until September to get parts in! So sorry for your mishaps on this leg of your trip! I get all of my oil changes down at Walmart - the price is always the same ($50-60ish for synthetic) and they have me in their system so I can have that pulled up in any state I’m getting it changed at - and they are usually really helpful with topping fluids and going above and beyond! Anyway - Georgia looks amazing! So pretty! Thanks for sharing! Bunches of love Noelle

I know firsthand about sewer hose brakes, lol. The same thing happened to mine a couple weeks ago but thank God it didn’t split it just popped about three holes.

You probably already know about this, but there are companies that can come out and fix those small dents for a very reasonable price.

Great video! Amazing that you drove on a tire that was punctured! :o)

Hey thanks for the update and the road trip.. I was following you from days going by back in the sprinter era. What's a good source tutorial to look up some of the features on my 2018 Winnebago ERA. Just starting out and the manuals are terrible. Want to get the toilet functioning for a road trip that kind of thing. appreciate any pointers. Safe travels keep him coming..

Yes what a beautiful park, we just always try to use our state parks first.

We traveled on Independents day we left early from Phoenix and headed towards Moab on our way to WY I was pleasantly surprised with the traffic we ended up driving 400 mi.! We are from northern Indiana and traffic there would've horrific but out west it's not as stressful. The sewer hose breaking would be terrible I think I will be purchasing an extra 💩💩💩 hose! 🤮🤮🤮

Good video 😀 great dog 🐕 I didn't know your were in the automotive industry 🤔

You are right, it does seem bad things happen in threes. Our last trip we had a flat on our tow vehicle, rhino hose split much like yours only with black water and didn't have enough leveling blocks for our very, very uneven camp site. We served. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Thanks for sharing that RV life isn't all sunshine and unicorns.

Welcome to Georgia! My son and I camped there years ago with the Cub Scouts in tents. It was winter, we froze at night and yet the no-seeums ate us alive.

Louie has gotten so tall! He's even cuter than before! Oh yeah, also sorry for your sewage hose 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ugh I feel your pain. I just had two things happen to me. I just closed on the house and moved in to the RV over the 4th of july weekend. Good thing I sold to my Niece. I was getting ready to move on Tuesday afternoon and came back to RV and furnace fan was running and AC was on low fan. I could not get the furnace fan to shut off or the AC to go to high fan. Lucky i am just parked in the Driveway until I move. we had some storms roll through and I think I got a surge or something. Had to call a close by Mobile tech because it was late and he could come right then or else it would be 3 days. He got the AC working on High and low and disconnected power from the furnace fan after spending an hour trying to figure it out. even the little switch on furnace would not shut off the fan. Thank god it wasn't burning just the fan running. That cost me $350 for him to come out and when I called dealer next day they said ORV would not pay for a mobile tech and I am out my money on that. Later the next day I was getting ready to move out of driveway and slide would only come in 8 inches then rear side of slide would bind up and stop. I took all weight out of slide and ran it out and tried again about 4 times, same thing. Called the same dealer you used again and they suggested I find a dealer local to look at it and I would have to get it in before I can move it. Well after calling around my area here at home still in Ohio, I found an airstream dealer 40 min away that offered to look at it as they just did a repair on a slide on a different brand and Lippert had a TSB on slides made between October21 and January 22, mine was built end of October. go figure. This was only 4th time I have tried to retract slide. Ugh. Oh well at least I have a dealer close to look at it and I can use trailer with slide in, just loose the tv but have one in bedroom and I haven't begun my fulltime journey yet. Just finished loading to pull out of the driveway and begin. lol. On the plus side I did finish adding 824watts of solar on the roof before i tried to move it. Haven't wired yet as I still need a few components. Just wondering as well how you tied together the wires from the roof and the ones coming up in the access above the bed? I was thinking of putting a breaker there to disconnect the solar and be easier to tie the wires together.

Great adventures. Why do you tow with such a big truck? A 250 would have worked right? I have similar trailer from Outdoor RV (18RB) love them - good quality Happy travels

one of those suction dent pullers should work on that. What kind of dog is Lewy? Love your videos, thanks for posting.

I did the same thing recently, lowered my tailgate onto the raised hitch-pin latch denting and scratching the truck paint. Happens to the best of us! Louie looks amazing!

I really loved the end with the deer and Louis reaction!❤️

Now you have a real truck.

We agree....the Andersen Hitch can be difficult if you aren't lined up straight. Sounds like you have found a good solution. The site looks pretty. Too bad about the bugs....they love me too! I usually end up wearing long sleeves because all of the sprays/lotions don't cut it for me.

What a fantastic video !! Problems in three , oh well as long as the three are ok. Love scenery and the music!! This video was interesting to me and the humor was also great. As always BS & BK

That dent is nothing to a, do it yourself paint less dent repair kit. Not that expensive. 5 minute glue gun which should be included with the kit along with everything else. See your local auto parts store.

You may already know, bit check out Jared (All about RVs) video on the shutoff valve he installed where the hose hooks up. It allows an extra safeguard against those unexpected hose issues.

Louie is a lucky little dog! He has seen and sniffed more than most dogs in America. People have to remember we only see a very short snippet of what you do. We don’t see all the walks and fun Louie gets with you. Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing it with us!

no parking, no pedestrians, no pedaling, no peddling, no picnic, no partying, no peeing.

Hey guys! Can you let me know more about your cover for your RAD power bikes when mounted on the bike rack? Much appreciated!!

When we have little problems we just determine the fix and move on. Can't sweat the small stuff. Enjoy your journey! You may want to carry a couple of 6 foot long 2x6 pressure treat boards. Much easier to pull up on those than those little blocks.

Though by no means a good thing, the hose self-disintegrating was a kind of roundabout win. It happened after the black tank was drained, and while you were still in range of of store, and while you were leaving anyway. If it burst doing the black tank drain or while you just got there, it would have been more annoying. Likewise, if you were more than a few days travel away from where you could get another one, out on some dusty boondocking trail in Nevada, that would have been more annoying too. The nail in the sidewall is just a bad thing, but one that can hopefully be easily fixed by pretty much any tire shop patch. The ratchet ding on the tailgate sucks too, but eh, as soon as the truck was made it started to decay. On a long enough timescale, everything will get beat up til it turns to dust. The truck just got a minor one in early. Since it is just aesthetic and not functional damage, I think you will eventually think it is not a big deal. You probably have already since there is a record to publishing delay. Some body shop might be able to get it out if it does bother you still, and we all know you'll never leave open the tailgate without making sure the bumper is clear. So even that isn't 100% a bad thing, if you can learn something from it.

Oh boy....Louie continues to grow into being even more cute!! Ughhhh.....thankfully you dodged a big one with it only being gray water leaking out of your sewer hose split. How fun!! Savannah is an awesome city to visit!! I always recommend St Augustine, Savannah, and Charleston to folks. Safe travels!! PS. No fence for Louie.....whaaatttt.....that is no problem at all! Doggies LOVE traveling and getting new experiences. QUESTION : Aaron...with your automotive industry experience, do you carry an extended warranty on your pick up truck now? I was curious to your opinions on that, especially towards ours, which is the 7.3l gasser.

Yeah Georgia-My home state!! My wife and I use to live in Northwest GA but now live in Naples, FL. I have been so concerned about you two. I've been checking your KZfaq channel every day for the last week awaiting your next video... I thoroughly enjoy your travels and great editing! Enjoy your travels in Georgia and beyond!!

I'm anxious to see your Savannah episode. Have you seen the movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil ? about Savannah. Great movie and book.

Great video, thanks for taking me along. I’m a part time RV’er and my traveling dog buddy would by far rather be on the road and camping than at home in the backyard. Thousands of smells and she doesn’t want to miss a one of them. Safe travels.

You guys are so funny! Curious what you did in the Automotive world. Many decades myself.

Hey guys! On our last trip in our LTV, we drove along the beach roads from Galveston TX to Key West FL stopping after a few hours of driving and parking on the beach all the way around the Gulf of Mexico. Awesome trip. On the way north, we stopped in St Augustine and Charleston… certainly recommended stops, like Savannah. We even caught a rocket launch in the Cape. We boondocked all the way, beach or downtown parking, on our 8000W-hr lithium and 860W solar system! And when I say “last”, I mean it. After 30,000 miles in the beloved LTV, a dealer offered us $25K more than we paid for it! We sold just ahead of the gas price spike! First time I ever made money on something with wheels and a motor…. We’re on to our next adventure, but we still enjoy your channel!

I would like to see the mt Rushmore of poop

Louie is getting so big! People feeling sorry for him clearly don’t get it - my dog loves her road life. And he looks so happy and healthy!

happy to see a new video and that you three are doing well. louie has gotten big! i picked up my 2022 f350 tremor a month ago after 7 months of waiting. i found you guys on YT searching for videos on the tremor and saw your video of when you got yours. quick questions. what tonneau cover do you have. what rack for the tent, and are you constantly in tow mode and any issues? thanks in advance. love the episodes

Gorilla tape would be an option for emergency situations like this. It will definitely hold for a good while. In fact I believe gorilla take actually makes a type of plumbing tape

Nail in side of tire, not good…

Sometimes, spelling your title *ain't easy 😂- sorry, I couldn't resist.

Hey guys! Always remember: "This too shall pass." Glad to see your issues are relatively small ones. You must be hating gas prices these days. Don't let the never-ending-pet-whiners get you down; Louie has a great life! Keep on truckin'!

😃👍👍👍😃
