Runaway Camper a beginners guide 

Even though we camp quite often, We picked up a few tricks from you here that we've never seen before! Thank you.

I just bought a runaway. Have to pick it up next week. Have tent camped over 30 years ago. This (and your other) videos are so helpful & appreciated !! Thank you!

what a useful video! never thought of the puppy pads - brilliant!

Excellent video very helpful!

great vid guys. you both are awesome!!!!! I am retiring soon and cant wait to start rv life.

I loved your video , THANKS FOR SHARING

LOVE your videos. So helpful! Thank you 💕👀🎉🥳

I enjoyed your video...when you started packing up I had to do a rewind. I could have sworn that you packed your dog up in one of those totes! I hope to get a Runaway in a year or two so I really appreciate the chance to learn more about camping out small camper style. I haven't camped in years but I'm itching to get out on the road and see something besides the inside of my apartment for a change. Safe travels and keep making the videos!

Nice video thank you. Some great tips. Liked the idea of portable toilet.

Thank you so much for this video, new runaway owners and realized we don't know half of what we thought we did LOL. This gave us so many ideas to make it easier, and thank you for showing the electric hook we've been going a little crazy trying to figure that out. Wonderfully helpful video!

This was great !! I am far from a beginner camper but still got some awesome ideas. My favorite was the puppy pad idea !!!!!! I have one place I like to camp but the shower is ishy. It's a fairgrounds. I use shower shoes but it's hard to get dried and dressed. I sure don't want to put a towel on the floor. Puppy pad would be PERFECT !!!

Using puppy pads for getting out of the shower is an absolute GENIUS idea! I'm going to start using those in gym showers as well. Thanks for all the extra tips!

Like your setup

Great bathroom idea.

Very helpful video. Thanks!

This is a GREAT video to educate beginners,,, WELL DONE INDEED

Thank you! Wonderful

Simple video thanks.

I saw your vid not long ago with the guy that went full solar. The space heater answered this north Georgia boys question. Now I’m in the market 😁

great video kids!

Nice video thanks!

Omg! Your wife is a genius! Love your bathroom ideas!

thank you for your helpful tips that will help me when I get my runaway

Thanks for sharing. Lots of great ideas!

Thanks for all the great info. especially the app reserve America!

Happy birthday to your great wife

Just passed the Herky clan going on 65 north in Indiana! Great to see you guys and thanks for waving!

Nice shower rooms very clean.

My first ever first comment! Been watching Herkey and his mom & chauffeur for about 6 months. Loved the western trip down Hwy 66, I live couple miles from 66 in Oklahoma. Good job guys, thank you for posting

Our first trip to Henry Cowell State Park in Ca. we camped the same weekend as a home schooling group. Talk about NOISE!!! We enjoy the sound of kids playing but once they left, the silence truly is golden. Camping is a bit and miss event, it not just children making noise, adults can be worse. Never the less, go camping!!!

Love your canopy setup, it looks so cozy in there. Watching your video and seeing the space you have on the side of your bed looks so nice. if anybody is looking to get a runaway camper I would definitely suggest a wide one like theirs. We have a small 4x8 teardrop and there's no room on the sides to store things and to get out of bed. Great video, it felt like 2 minutes long and I looked at the time stamp and it was almost a 10-minute video!

Thank you I really have benefited from you sharing the way you guys set up your range runner it has saved me alot of struggle of making ours right for us.

I'm a camping wanna be, these basic things help me. I don't know anything about electric hook ups, or pulling a trailer or setting one up once I get where I'm going. This year I'm starting by making a sleeping platform in my SUV and just getting out there. I'm looking at both Runaway and Hiker trailers- but that's still just a dream.

Excellent video! So helpful....thanks!

Thank You!!!! We will save this for sure🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Great tips and useful information...thanks!

Nice video, thanks very helpful informative!! We are thinking of this kind of camper trailer after our last tent camping trip early October this year we nearly froze (well not quite, was chilly though, lol) on the Mendocino coast here. Marathon watching more later, thanks

Thank you for not having a loud annoying intro to your video!

Great video, thanks for sharing.

That was such a helpful video - thanks. Do you camp in National forests? We don't have anything similar in Canada and I'd love to know the ins and outs of camping in them.

Thanks for the tips brilliant.

awesome! thinking abt getting a runaway soon! thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks for the tips. Was wondering about what type heater you guys used to stay warm as you camp when it's cold. Enjoy kids but sometimes those little ones are to curious and won't go away : )! So away from their play area is great advice.

I just watched this for the second time since I just ordered my CoolCamp to travel alone in. I learned a lot that's going to help me get started. I've been dreaming about this for years now, collecting things for camping, and am excited to finally be close to realizing my dream. I found what looks like your canopy online. It's called ABC Canopy. It seems to have good reviews. Thanks for the tips and I hope to meet y'all out on the road someday!

A good honest enjoyable video. Keep them coming. James U K

Great video. We just ordered a Runnaway Rouser and would like your opinion on weather we should get the awning from Runnaway Campers (without walls) which in our case is $418 or simply buying a shelter with walls like the one you guys have on this video. By the way, what brand and size of Awning do you have? Thank you.

Good tips..

Great set up. What kind of propane fire pit do you have. Does it takes a lot of space? Thanks

Well done.

I love the state parks in MN. I also use the family restrooms...as a single woman who camps with a dog, I can bring him with me when I need to shower (I know its against the rules, but I'm not supposed to leave him unattended at the campsite so I figure this is the lesser of two evils).

How did you mount the shelf at the front of the camper. The one under the a/c inside the cabin. Thanks

Thank you.

I was like don't get so close to the fire with the scarf with the dangly ends... 👀😱

Thank you for posting your set-up. Do you belong to a run away campers traveling group? I saw you at the rally and some ladies said they went to several places, so that is why I asked. The information you shared is very helpful.

One RU-vid I watched stated that the chalking around the runaway camper comes off and the seams and door leak when it rains, have you had a problem with this?

Thinking about a runaway and im curious. Who makes your canopy and what size is it?

Thank you for sharing. Love the puppy pad idea that would make showing a lot easier! Your the first camper I have seen that had a set-up that was not a tool box style on the front, great idea and cheaper too. I have been look at the runaways, I just changed cars and had a 4 wide converted cargo trailer and it pulled great with the jeep liberty 6 cylinder with towing transmission cooler and overdrive off... Now with my new jeep it is only a 4 cylinder with none of the extras, I was wondering is there much of a drag on your car since the camper is wider then the car?

Is there any reason to be concerned the cassette toilet might freeze while you are on the road on cold days?

What’s the trick getting your pup to stay put? Mine would have been half way out of the state.

I was going to get a cool camp but after this video I’ve decided on the larger one. I don’t think there’s that much difference in pulling it and the extra space makes a huge difference in comfort.

You don’t have kids anymore? How does that work? We have 5 kids they are grown up and out of the house but how do we get rid of them? 😂😂😂Great video by the way.

What size and brand mattress do you have? Is it elevated? Thanks for the video!

How do you run the AC through the night? Battery/inverter or do you have a generator?

Where are you at in Missouri? And you said Missouri correctly😊

Great info, thank you! I'm hoping to get my Rangerunner this summer (very excited!). What is the name of the canopy you're using outside the Runaway? And the propane fire pit? Can you put links up for those items, please?

I ordered my runaway and I'm trying to get things ready. Love this viedo, thanks for explaining. I went to Amazon to see the 30amp to 20 amp thingie, but I'm not sure what I'm looking at? What I need, I think, is a plug in on the 30 amp side to a 20 amp reciprocal so I can plug in my extension cord ... Yes/No? Gees, so many questions! Thanks for you videos! Mary

What brand and size is the canopy?

is the rangerunner fitting into a single garage door

Do you use the cassette toilet inside the Runaway? I had wondered if there is enough head room to use it inside or if it has to go outside. Thanks! -Scott

What is the canopy brand and size? Thanks

Not complaining about kids either but why not leave those spaces for parents with kids for their fun! 💕

What brand of canopy is that?

Love the video thank you for sharing. Will you tell me what state park your in where at in Missouri .

Nice!!

What state are you camping in with this video?

What size is your camper

If I could only have had more camping experiences in one of those campers instead of in a tent......

recreation.gov is another great website for campers
