  • Episode 10 Is Free RV Camping Really Free?

    On our weekly show we discuss the reality of Free RV Camping. Is it really free. We explore the first 365 days of new RVer that thinks camping for free on BLM land is cheaper than RV parks. In most cases yes, it is is cheaper, But there are certainly cost’s involved the first year, and you would be surprised on how that averages to your daily cost for “free’ camping. So think twice about those FREE Instagram Pics you can’t wait to share and understand that FREE isn’t always FREE. At least in the first year of Full Time RV Travel.

    Show Notes:

    Huge announcemet for the Full Time RV Travel Commuity.

    We are now on Clubhouse App

    Free is not free the first year. Someone has to pay for all the toys

    Battleborn Batteries are expensive affiliate links and don’t get caught up

    On today’s show we talk about Boondocking. Exactly what is it? Who is doing it? And what kind of financial investment is there to live the “Free Life”. How does Social Media Play a role, in glamorizing boondocking and what is the truth. Whether you are a Van Lifer, RVer, or a Nomad, don’t miss this, as we share the uncensored truth about life on the road.

    Show Notes:

    Who needs Solar and Why?

    Don’t “buy” into the Battle Born Lithium affiliate marketing game

    How much of an investment is there to live “free”?

    Don’t throw money at the lifestyle of boondocking

    There is Math involved in Boondocking. Scott sucks at Math

    Friends don’t let friends run the water faucet for ever.

    Learn the word “Capacity”.

  • Episode 8 Pro’s and Con’s of New Versus Used RV’s

    On today’s show we are discussing the variables between purchasing new vs used? Is one better than the other? Is one more costly than the other? Either way, you need to first understand your lifestyle before buying. Are you a McGuyver or a McSpender? Do you want to pay now, or pay later? Either way there is no such thing as the perfect nomadic RV, Van, or even Skoolie.

    Show Notes:

    Don’t believe everything you see on IG or YT

    Better know a good Diesel Mechanic for all you Diesel Pushers out there

    Bigger does not mean better

    LaPosa South just ran out of Dump capacity

    Know everything about your RV BEFORE you pull away

    We would never buy a new RV right now.

  • Episode 6 RV Composting Toilets – The Good, The Bad, The Poop

    A few years ago, RV Composting Toilets were the rage. Of course the temptation for affiliate marketing on popular YouTube Channels were just so tempting. They are expensive after all and bring in pretty good buck. Of course the reality of the RV Composting Toilet was that it had a high maintenance value to it, and most RVers soon turned against them. NOT US! WE love ours and here is why.

    Show Notes:

    The Scoop on the Poop

    Ariane shares Scott’s poop to friends

    “Can I dump my pee tank in your toilet”?
