We Swapped Our Vans for 24 hours (Campervan VS Trailer) Ft ‪@Theendlessadventure‬
In this vanlife video we swap RV's with Eric & Allison from The Endless Adventure. We meet up with our friends for the first time since our first campervan caught fire in Texas. We had previously planned an epic road trip together but we are now meeting up in completely different rigs than we all had before!
We swap our 1997 Dodge Coach House Campervan with their (much more spacious) 2022 Blackseries Trailer, pulled along by a gorgeous little 1997 Ford f250 truck. We even get to test out driving each other's rigs to get the full experience.
Make sure to watch the swap from their perspective over on their channel: / theendlessadventure

Since your bed is so uncomfortable and you don't turn it into a another seating area have you considered a mattress topper they can turn an awful night's sleep into a very good night sleep

@bekind3931 Жыл бұрын

I have always been too afraid to tow anything, but watching you go ‘round the parking lot gave ME confidence. You made it look so easy. When you were in their trailer talking about the fly colony in the van and then noticed one fly in the trailer, I was like, “Shut the screen door! You’re letting the flies in.” It was like hearing my dad’s voice from childhood. Based on that, I’d say the trailer beats the van; but get a screen door (maybe a Velcro one from Home Depot you adhere on the inside) and maybe a tiny tow vehicle, bikes or a moped for two and you’re set.

@stevenkeithcoulthard706 Жыл бұрын

I think a Van or Trailer depends on what your needs are, at a certain time in your life. My wife and I have a small Class C and we love more Van Life style now, because we love to travel to multiple locations and not camp at one place anymore. When we used to camp with our kids we had a larger "Trailer" to stay at one place for a week or two with a lot of setup and takedown. Now that it's just the 2 of us (the kids grew up), the swiftness of a 5 minute tear down and back on the road is awesome.

@rainsofhealing Жыл бұрын

So much fun! I’d stick with the van. There’s so much MORE stuff to do with a trailer, and the gas mileage is a huge factor as well. The whole point of “vanning” is that it’s NOT a sticks and bricks, so many of the comforts will naturally not be there but it’s an adventure! Great video thanks for sharing this with us all!

@c2blondie Жыл бұрын

A fun adventure for sure. I would keep the van, as you can park it anywhere. The trailer takes so much more space and having to back it into spaces can be a hastle. Where are you doing next? Would love to meet you in person.....We're Oregonians....come for a visit. We too have a Campervan. Coachmen Beyond.

We had a trailer with a truck and can really see the advantages of that when visiting an area of the country with kids or friends in tow.... But for your situation, the van is the way to go. Being part time US travelers, its much simpler to have a van. And when the wind blows you somewhere else, you can sell it and move on. Can't wait to see you in the Northeast, maybe next year as it's starting to get cold.

Due to my income (retired) per month, the answer is the Van/RV. Reason said is the insurance, trailer is extra set of tires to worry about, and luxury is something I may not want. My luxury is how the RV carries, such as... 1. Solar panels with converter charge. 2. Wi-fi boost 3. Best dashcam/security cams for the RV (prefer 4 cams, 1 on front, 1 on back (also reverse cam) and 2 on sides 4. change fridge out and put in all electric fridge only. 5. change gas stove out and make it a full counter top. there are portable electric stove to get. same with the portable heaters when needing them.

Each one of you have certain qualities to your trailer/van but the black series is very nice... WASHING MACHINE! I mean I could always get a portable washer. With pull behind you can store extra stuff in the vehicle! The van is really nice to because you done have the long-ness of the trailer/truck combo
