You know what your tow capacity is and you know you want a bathroom in your trailer. Are there any quality options out there for you? Are they worthy of your hard-earned dollar?

As RV battery and RV solar technology continue to develop, it's always good to get experts in the studio to help us, as normal users, grasp the ins and outs of the gadgets and gizmos we're putting in our RVs.

28 years ago, PJ and Richard purchased a small local RV manufacturing business named Princess Craft. Since that time, the business has thrived and expanded, and family has always been in the mix.

The urge to get out there and explore the world is common to many of us, but it's always worthwhile to expand our thoughts on how we travel to break out of a rut... or to get into one. We brought in Chris Devereaux, an integral part of the Texas Overland community, to talk about this way, or lifestyle, that so many people have gravitated to. The idea, find as much enjoyment, adventure, and experience as you can while traveling, not just when you arrive at a destination. Finding lesser-known and lesser-used paths, negotiating with nature a bit more on her terms, and more can add up to memories that either enhance your travel or even become the reason you travel. Check out this episode with Chris Devereaux, Cody Kneupper, and Clint Sandberg on the RV Small Talk Podcast!

Fully electric RVs are already on the scene, and we're all for the developing technologies that make it possible. But, you don't simply camp and travel the same way with an all-electric rig as you have been with standard electric and propane equipment that we're all used to. This week, we explore how you have to know and think about things just a bit differently to get the most out of 100% electric RVs.
