I loved your Route 66 trip. It was fantastic. We LOVED Gary. He was a hoot. Also, I really enjoyed Trisha’s attempt at driving on the interstate. I did the exact same thing when I got on the interstate the first time with our Super C. I was driving along, made it through some barriers (Texas) and said “I’m getting off!!” I hit the first exit and stood up to switch seats. My husband said, you can’t do this at the top of the exit. I said Watch Me! 🤣
I love your bus. It reminds me of Illinois Department of corrections prison bus I used to drive. Glad you got to visit Pontiac, Illinois. I lived there for four years, wonderful town. Now I’m close to St. Louis. The Midwest has a lot of great things to offer.
Palo Duro Canyon is a State Park run by Texas Parks and Wildlife, not the National Park Service. The America the Beautiful card won’t work here. You referred to it as a National Park and maybe it should be, but it’s not.
Sorry Marc but Palo Duro Canyon is a TX State Park not a Nat. Park. I remember as an 7 or 8 going from Victorville CA to OKC OK before I-40 was built have good memories.
Enjoy your program my wife worked on the corona task force in the area and could not go out of state so we purchased a truck and a camper started camping throughout the state. So now we have starter on RU-vid and etc….. thank you you encouraged us.
When I was a kid in the 70's my brother and I would travel with our grandmother from Jax, Fl. to Indianapolis. Wonderful memories of smaller US highways the whole way mainly because she didn't like driving on Interstates. It also meant at least a three day road trip because she also didn't like driving at night. Motels with color TV's and swimming pools a real treat. The last time we made the trip I had my learner's permit and that had us using the Interstates where I ended up being the driver at rush-hour in Knoxville on I-40. White-knuckle thrill ride as I remember.
What a treat! Four days ago I’d never heard of your channel and now I’ve binged your entire Rte. 66 series. I’m from California and went to grad school at UNM and so I’ve been up and down that stretch of Rte. 66 many times, but I never got east of Albuquerque. I’ve always wanted to see The Big Texan in person and the Cadillac Stone Henge. Your series has inspired me to go just a little further down the road. Thanks, and I look forward to exploring more of your channel!
I have been following you for the last three seasons and have loved all of your videos but I have to say that Gary was the highlight of this trip. I couldn’t wait to see what you were going to come up with next and you always found a way to top the last. The stand in Gary part was hilarious. Thanks for the humor.
Have you guys seen the movie Cars? That reality of the small towns being bypassed by highways was addressed in the movie. I think that team did a great job capturing changes along the mother road.
Getting close to 500K. Congrats guys. I’ve been watching from the original ginger days and am so happy for your success. Especially your kids. Everyone graduating and celebrating scholastic/military achievements is a joy to watch. Keep living and loving your lives.
So helpful folks. We are shipping our Motorhome from the U.K. to Canada in September. We will be taking Route 66 for the autumn before heading to Alaska when the weather picks up. Once in Alaska we head south to Argentina PS. Keep the beard 😂😂😂
The highlight of the entire Root 66 (get it? Root?) Series, was CPR on Gary! Thanks again for great content. Can't wait to hear your plans with the bird... maybe turbocharging?
The best idea you ever had, was to 'follow the upholstery' ! So much fun and gave me many ideas for trips, once we finally get our Tiffin Wayfarer. Ugh. Has taken forever, but you guys are such fun and have made us even more excited to get RVing. Thank you.
I remember having fun reading the Burma-Shave signs with my brother and grandparents in the 50's on Hwy 395 to and from their cabin at Tom's Place, near Mammoth. One of my favorites is: "Keep pushing up ... those miles per hour ... if daisies are ... your favorite flower. ... Burma-Shave." As I understand it, they were also popular on Route 66, so you might want to look into them and possibly make reference to them in the Bird.
Thanks so much for taking us all along! We are fans forever - Love your positive and upbeat content. Of course, your video production skills are second to none. - Cheers!
I’ve always loved your videos ever since I found this channel a few years ago. I once saw you and the bird on my way home from traverse city. I was really pumped and was like, “That was KYD!!”
We enjoy your videos so much! We are not full timers but we do VRBO our beach house and take off in our camper multiple times a year. You give us such great tips, tricks and especially fun and laughter. I have your spices, cook book and bought my husband some hats! First time commenting. Keep the fun coming. Kathy
Thanks for the virtual experience as we had planned to travel in our studebaker pick up from Chicago like you two but lost my old guy 2 years ago so help me experience our dream through the two of you . Very great full that you shared route 66 trip what fun to watch sitting a home with lots of snow in the yard in Ontario canada at the bottom of Lake Huron across from Port Huron Michigan just a bridge apart from our neighbours to the South !
Now that you have completed the "Mother Road", I challenge you to take a trip down the "Old National Road" which is the very first road ever created to get from east to west. In fact this road was first bushwhacked by the native Americans. Soon after it was used by the settlers to travel by horse and carriage. Lots of history on this road. Could lead to an interesting series. Good luck.
I watch a lot of RU-vid content, mostly rv stuff. Most of them I have no clue when they post their videos. But I always look forward to KYD on Sunday night!
My wife and I are late 30's we have 3 kids and we purchased our first camper last fall. Thank you KYD, you gave us the inspiration to start where we were. We have had a blast and are looking forward to making many more memories in the years to come. We love you guys be safe out there.
In 2000 I got a 1998 Holiday Rambler Endeavor so I could go with my 16-18 year old girls. We went places and made memories. KEEP the bird!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can make memories with out kids. It will be cheaper than selling then buying later. Thank you for taking us along on the FUN 66 journey!
Your “root” 66 trip was one of my favorite videos to follow on RU-vid. You covered it so well and you guys are so fun! What a great journey! Thank you for sharing it.
Great video. We’ve actually been researching Route 66 for a couple years. We bought a Wanderlodge two years ago and have been working on it trying to fix everything we can first and we feel like next year we can do it so this video is very helpful. I’m sure we’ll watch it numerous times as we have with videos from many from other channels as well. Wish us luck!!
Great ending to the Route 66 trip. Gave me lots of laughs and information on new places to visit. Love your trips and appreciate all you share. Keep up the great videos . I am looking forward to your next trips and seeing what’s out there in our great country.😍😍
Excellent series. The humans are great but I think our favorite family members are Charlie and Gary. My road trip dream event would be to meet you all randomly somewhere.
Loved the season! We did a portion of Route 66 last March. We were actually just traveling I-40, from the coast through Oklahoma but made a point to stop off at some of the Route 66 "Rocks" like the Texas Steakhouse, Standin on the Corner, some of the Route 66 museums and welcome centers and some of the old refurbished gas stations. We used a website called "Roadside America" which has lists and maps of quirky roadside attractions all over the country. We didn't attempt to stay on the "mother road" so traditional navigation worked for us. We also ran into some places closed certain days of the week.
I absolutely loved going along with you! I prefer the non-interstate highways because you see the real area. But then I’m Canadian and our TransCanada & Yellowhead highways go through towns & used to go through cities until they put ‘ring roads’ to bypass the cities.
Best season yet! I loved Alaska, but this season was so fun, the Bird is so unique, you have such a positive attitude and fun approach to the wonders, big and small, along the way… and Gary was the best feature. Thanks for taking us along.
Come to Bryson City NC, the best part of Western NC. We have the Great Smoky Mt. National Park, The Nantahala River for whitewater, the GSMR Railroad, Lake Fontana, the Appalachian Trail, Tsali Mountain Bike Trails, Cherokee and much more. It's the best part of the Southern Appalachians. You've been so close, but missed this great place 60 miles west of Asheville. We even have a "Bird" nearby.
I absolutely love ur channel. Can't wait till ur next adventure starts. Maybe we'll meet on the road. I'm an RV'er too, but mostly in the Eastern High Sierras. Thank u. See-ya
I’m completely caught up on all the seasons!!! I literally binged watched them all and enjoyed watching the kids grow up in fast forward. I laughed A LOT. I totally enjoyed watching your travels and learning so much about RV life. I can hardly wait to hit the road with my husband. The Bluebird hat made Marc look like a train conductor with that mustache. Your whole family is hilarious and I hope maybe one day I will see you all on the road.
Enjoyed the recap of Route 66. Looking forward to seeing the new changes in the Airstream. Looking forward to a new Season filled with excitement. 💘Happy Valentines Day!💘
Thank you for the "Retro Route 66" review 😎🙌. It made anything of interest along that travel route a perk of whatever you desire in traveling to & how far or short .....
I passed right through Winslow Arizona on i44 and didn’t stop. Maybe one day I’ll get back and get my picture standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona.
So glad you got to spend time in St. Louis! It's a great area to raise a family, especially due to all the free or low cost attractions (like you mentioned: zoo, museums, science center, magic house, butterfly house, riverlands, forest park and many more)
Great video!! We really enjoyed the Rte 66 experience, along with Gary and The Bird. It has made us consider doing it this next fall. Like you, I was raised in California and try to get back often. WOW - you are going to be empty nesters before you know it!! Aren’t you glad you have all your experiences with your children starting with Ginger(love when you add video of the kids when you first started rving)?? Thank you so much for taking us all along with you!! 😊❤️🇺🇸 Safe Travels
This was a great season. Been watching since you had the fist Ginger. We are on the East side of U.S. and still work full time so that makes us weekend warriors. But we still travel alot! We love watching your episodes that focus on the Western part of the U.S. so we can add them to our destination list.
