    We are not full-timers, but we have owned RVs for many years now. Our current RV is 10 years old this year, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at it, because the decals are in pretty good shape. We bought this one and completely rehabbed it, because the previous owner had torn up the inside of it and the floors had to be mostly replaced. But if I get a hint of a 10 or 15 year restriction, I absolutely will NOT stay there. I don’t want my business going to places like that. I get they have their reasoning - good or bad, but I have choices as well. My choice is to go somewhere where we might be parked next to a half-broken down popup with a young family cutting their teeth on RV life. Or a 20 year old bus - rehabbed or not yet. I’m good with that, or the brand new Prevost being our neighbors.

    I'm just thinking about getting into RVing (thus, researching it) and, as you said, the only reason for this is obviously to restrict the people based on how rich they are. I say, fine, let them do that. But don't accept reservations, then reject them later on. Uh-uh. If they want rules like that, they have to state them up front so people know enough to pass on them and find somewhere else. People have to be able to plan. Considering that you cannot park an RV just anywhere, uninviting someone based solely on the age of their RV could really put someone in a bind, especially if they can't find a wifi network in the area.

I was thinking about this the first 6 minutes and then when I saw the wallpaper, I had to comment. Our wallpaper / peel and stick tile is always on a bottom bin with 100 other things with no organization what so ever. I’ve got a few dollar stores around my area (probably 5-6 I can go to) and NONE look anything like that store!

    When you own a campground you can do whatever you want. Limit the age of RV’s, check in time, number of people on a site, how many vehicles per site, how many dogs. This has been going on for 22 years we have owned a RV. Stop with the drama. Move on.

  • @goodtimeswerehad
    @goodtimeswerehad 13 часов назад

    Don't get mad at the campgrounds. They have to draw a line somewhere to protect themselves from undesirables. See the streets of SF or Seattle. Do you want campgrounds to have heroin needles all over the place or your kid to find fenty on the ground and think it's candy? It's the sad truth.

    Rv’s used to be associated with camping, now it’s thought of as an activity for the rich . Just saying, when my wife and I would take the kids tent camping we encountered plenty of Rv snobbery . That was years ago. I can only imagine it’s worse nowadays. I didn’t know RV owners snobbed each other. We still tent camp, kids grown and in our mid fifties , we’re going this weekend . We usually go to state parks, cheaper and people don’t seemed to care what you camp in , or what year.

    FYI - Teflon tape on those fittings is inappropriate as the threads don't provide the seal. The seal is between the rounded/cupped ends. The threads just bring those ends tightly together. Teflon tape is really less useful than most believe for that very reason. You need to be aware of how a pipe/tubing joint seals to know if Teflon tape is called for.

    Great video guys..! Also, when verifying the + and - of wires use the voltmeter by touching one wire with a probe and another probe to the metal on the chassis. Putting the probs on both of the wires will only verify that power is circulating through that part of the harness. I doesn't tell you which is + and -.. Cheers!

    I'm the same, but "driving until the wheels fall off" is exactly why these places have age restrictions. I'm not saying it's right or even remotely cool to do so, but I understand. I'll just pass them by and go somewhere a little more flexible. You have to imagine those age restricted campgrounds are going to be sticklers for every little thing. That's their choice, and I'm sure they're going to get plenty of business. It's our choice to keep these old vehicles going, and we have to pay these "taxes" in order to do it.

We have already received several emails from campground owners THANKING us for sharing our experience as it helps them in knowing how to BEST run their campgrounds. Thanks for watching and best wishes.
