In this video, we’re checking out FIVE RV and camping products — some are completely new to us, while others are products we liked so much in our dually that we decided to add them to the new truck as well.

We’ll give you a quick preview of every product right up front so you can easily jump to the sections that interest you most using the video chapters below.

In this video:
✔️ OGERY camping fan, lantern, and power bank combo
✔️ OGERY solar string lights
✔️ WeatherTech floor mats for the new truck
✔️ Starlink Gen 3 upgrade
✔️ Bulletpoint mounting system for our camera setup

The only negative to staying with our friends - filthy vehicles.

Apparently, driving across I-10 in Louisiana counts as “extreme testing” for RVs and one of our Schwintek RV slides decided it had enough. In this video, we walk through the issue we found, how we diagnosed it, and the repair that got everything working again.

Schwintek slide systems get a bad reputation, but many common problems can actually be fixed without replacing the entire system — if you understand how they work.

We also point you to our in-depth Schwintek troubleshooting and maintenance video where we cover:
~Slide synchronization issues
~Preventative maintenance
~Common failure points
~Motor and controller troubleshooting
~How to keep your slide running smoothly

If you own an RV with a Schwintek slide, this is information you’ll want before your next travel day.

Stop putting it off and get that annual AC maintenance done before the summer heat sets in! DIY or hire someone to do it...just get 'er done!
Big thanks to Steve Joerger for the pics.

So curious as to why this even needs to be posted on a trash can at a rest stop. I didn't realize this was even a problem.

Big Change = Big Questions. We Need Your Help!

We tried something different on this RV travel day… we split up and drove separately.

Along the way, we visit two absolutely beautiful state parks, deal with the realities of coordinating two vehicles, and (unsurprisingly) run into a few challenges.

That’s where you come in…

If you’ve ever driven separately on travel days—whether in an RV, towing, or just road-tripping—we’d love to hear your tips, tricks, and what’s worked (or not worked) for you.

Oh… and in the second park, Jeremy discovers there’s a serious problem: too much hiking… and not a single donut in sight.

👇 Drop your advice in the comments—we’re all ears!

Fort Mountain State Park near Chatsworth, GA is spectacular. We hiked to the Rock Tower and Stone Wall, the Cold Springs Overlook, and the Big Rock trail to see the waterfalls.

Our (since passed) rottie thinking she was a chicken, lol.
