That sounds pretty awesome! Glad it brought back good memories for you! Thank you for watching and if you haven’t already subscribe and follow along. There will be more truck camper videos. It’s been a very busy summer so the videos have slowed down but I will have some more coming.

@@adventureswithrick8032 I still have that camper and truck. Last year, it was broken into and trashed, (we think tree trimmers for the electric company!) If I can’t fix al the damage they did, we will look for another Sunline just like the one we have. The newer truck campers are made for super and crew cabs, ( mine is a standard) so the overhang is too long, making if it impossible to see overhead branches when on back roads and stop lights when I pull up close enough to trip the light! The new ones are also too high and don’t have a front window. And, they are too expensive. I put a norcold boat 12/120 volt frig in, so I wouldn’t have to be level when I park. (Wide shoulders are not level) I also put an evaporator In place of the vent in the center of the camper, also 12 volt. It would drop the temp inside 10 to 15 degrees. In the desert, when it was 105 outside, it was only 90 inside! For communication, we had a CB (tram diamond 60 23 channel SSB, which I still have) All of our traveling back then, we only stayed in a campground one day, and that was at circus circus in Vegas. We even stayed near the runway at the Vegas airport. That was before they put up fences. Pismo beach was a party beach on the weekends, but during the week, we would be the only vehicle on the whole beach! Couldn’t believe a video I saw recently on Pismo beach. Family is grown, and we want to travel again, but are concerned because of how violent our country has become. Towns we stayed at are so bad, we will never go their again. We contacted H.O.G. (Harleys Owners Group) to find out if certain roads or towns have crime problems. We plan to try the routes and towns they recommended and will stay away from the others.

Hey bud grumpy old ford guy here I still travel the roads in a slide in camper. Best thing I ever did... enjoy life

Hang in there Life will get better. Keeping your mind busy will help! I’m so glad this helps!

@@adventureswithrick8032 Thank you for your encouragement. Perhaps when your heating and cooling guy imparts wisdom, you'll create an episode. I am unsure how to light the older waterheater.

Thank you. I still think about him and how his life would have been had he gotten some help. I don’t know. Thanks for watching and the kind words.

Thank you

Thank you

Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching. I do appreciate it. I was thinking of him this evening. Still struggle to make sense out of it. I know I won’t but that is what suicide leaves us with. Thank you 🙏

Thanks and thanks for watching 😀

Thank you and thanks for watching and following along.

Thank you so much! Thanks for watching

Oh wow! Never thought of that! Great idea! Cheers! I live about 40 min from Sarnia, Ontario across the border in Michigan

I used to use flares

Thank you! Yes it did. It is currently in the restoration process. I gave the truck to my son who is completely restoring it including a rebuilt 350 engine instead of the 305. He is doing a great job on it. I can’t wait for everyone to see it! (And hear it)

Thank you and thank you for watching!

Thank you and thanks for watching! Consider following along and subscribe if you haven’t.

Awesome! Thanks for watching. I can’t wait to see your videos.

Vintage fan is SOOO awesome!

Thank you 😊

Thanks!! Hoping to have it back out again next summer. We have it off the Chevy truck right now and my son is starting the process of restoring the truck. I also have a 64 F250 which was set up for a camper for most of its life. We have the old rotten bed off of it now and a good bed will go on probably in spring sometime.

Thenk you

Your very welcome and thanks for watching!!

Thank you a bunch on all accounts!

Thank you! Looking forward to some more camping out their soon.

Thank you

Thanks!! Ya I got to be careful for sure!

Thank you! I try to just be me. Nothing special just a guy enjoying life navigating its ups and downs. Thank you for your kind words and for watching! I’ve been down sick like so many have been but I’m back at it and working on a new video so stay tuned 😃😉

@@adventureswithrick8032 I look forward to many more adventures 👍

Thanks for watching! And thank you

Thank you! Hoping to have a truck ready to haul it again soon! The Chevy is getting redone.

Hey thanks for watching I appreciate it!

Thanks man!! I appreciate it and I appreciate you watching!

@@adventureswithrick8032 I followed. Looking forward to more of that camper 👍

Thank you

Thank you 😊

Awesome! Thanks for watching. I was a mechanic before being a pastor but I grew up in the church and wandered a bit before I trusted Christ and became a preacher.

Thank you!

Thank you and thanks for watching

@@adventureswithrick8032 That is a really nice camper, the interior looks great.

Thanks for watching! We have begun collecting parts to restore the square now as time is catching it. Yes it is great at hauling. Thanks for the sub too!

Thank you! Yes that is so true! I am sorry for your loss too! 😑 The best we can do at this point is encourage others to reconsider and do the best we can to be there for our friends and family if they are struggling.

Thank you that is very kind! I would suspect if I uploaded more and regularly I would. As a dad with three teenagers and a full time job it makes it challenging. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

@@adventureswithrick8032 your very welcome

Thanks for watching

Yes it does. Right now my son and I are working on the truck that hauls the camper because it needs attention. Hopefully I can get the camper back out soon!

@@adventureswithrick8032 that's great 👍

It actually has a gas furnace but it needs replaced. Im glad this brought back some good memories for you. Thanks for watching!

Thank you

Someday I’ll get one! Thanks for watching

Thank you! And thanks for watching.

Isn’t that crazy!! Big difference is we are prepared and live with this every year! Texas doesn’t so it’s a mess. I feel bad for them.

Thank you and thanks for watching

Thank you and thanks for watching

Thank you for watching. I love using candles as a source of light. Thanks for your concern.

Hey thanks for watching ! I live near Port Huron, Michigan

Yes sir I had my left hip replaced August 4 of 2020. I was up and walking like a new man in two weeks. You would have had no idea I had had a hip replacement other than how poorly I walked prior to surgery. It got really really bad. I was only 48. The doctor said my hip was in horrible shape. I was staying home alone caring for myself in less than a week. The walker is your best friend and a shower chair.

I just had an anterior hip replacement Dec ... took a couple of weeks to get back to normal ... but the loss of hip pain was immediate!! It was life changing ... best wishes!!

@@lisaquartararo7240 thank you! I’m finding I still am having energy level issues and some pain sometimes. Many have said it takes a year to be back to normal.

I haven’t had it out to a camping situation whenever I use the water. It needs plumbing fixed. I don’t have a grey water or black water hook up that is good yet. I use shore power or battery operated or oil lamps. I definitely have a good amount to do on it yet. Thanks for watching 😃

None! I’ve had to learn things by trial and error as an adult. I had a tent as a kid and did sleep in the backyard if that counts 😂

For some it was beyond what they would do. For some like you no big deal. Thanks for watching.

I’ve thought about that and I would love to. Great ideas!!

Thank you! I am so sorry! Suicide leaves a mess for those who remain. 😑

Amen! Thank you

I am a pastor and deal with this quite a bit too. I understand about the brain being an organ just like anything else. Losing a family member is tough and suicide effects so many. Thanks for expressing your opinion. I know you speak from your experience and I speak from mine. I don’t just speak from one experience and maybe you don’t. We can agree the pain for both the one who dies and those who remain is immense. I smiled the other day seeing a Facebook memory of him and was sad that he is gone. God bless you and thanks for watching. Again, sorry for your loss! 😞 - Rick

@@adventureswithrick8032 thanks, being a pastor I’m sure you do deal with this, and knowing that makes me want you to learn more. Unfortunately I have dealt with several suicidal death in my life, your comments in the video show me that you do need more education, especially if you’re counselling people. I have no faith, none, I simply don’t believe in old stories, I’m sure you find comfort in your beliefs but educating yourself from a thanatology perspective coupled with your faith based beliefs will give you a different perspective, one that reflects a modern understanding of suicidal death, grief and death. Remember the bible calls suicidal dealt a sin, wrong! Take good care Rick, and thanks for the wonderful reply Rick

@@shakyhandpictures2185 again I cannot imagine your loss. My heart breaks for such a grief. 😥
