ℹ️ About this episode: Driving an RV in SCARY Conditions // RV Living
In this episode we wrap up our stay at Valley Vista Rv Resort, A Thousand Trails Encore resort, and hit the road for Texas. We run into snow and a pretty bad dust storm that had us a little on edge.

Good video guys. 3 things... 1. Thank you for cleaning up after your puppers. That is one of the biggest pet peeves my Wife and I have and just went over on our first Episode. So, thank you. 2. We have a 41 ft travel trailer pulled by a gas powered 2500HD. We always seem to get stuck on that outside pump, that works best for us, but has someone parked who is just taking their time shopping inside. Really infuriating. 3. Definitely take it easy out there on the Texas plains. My Brother is a long haul trucker and about 2 years back a 65 mph straight-line gust caught his rig on the side and lifted a full 53ft trailer off the ground about 3 ft, flippedhim on his side and slid him Cross the opposite lanes of a divided highway and slid him off in the bar ditches. DPS was right behind him and got it on dashboard cam. It was both horrific and awe inspiring at the same time. Thanks for thevids, be safe out on the road. Love, Peace and Bacon Grease Y'all!!! Mmmmm, bacon!!! ~Uncle Mongrel

In January I headed I10 west and ran into a blizzard in Las Cruces. Just out of nowhere. It was warm and the temps dropped! Woah...I am heading back I40 from Flagstaff later this week.

Hey guyz Luv your channel, Brian liked your take on the safety tips on the traveling thru a dust storm. I'm a retired Border Patrol agent & taught driving at the academy & taught those same techniques to the trainees to always pull off the road as far as possible. Many snowbirds get killed around Arizona by doing the opposite of what you did. Born & raised in the El Paso area and enjoyed the area around the Dairy farms right before entering El Paso. We live now in Albq & when we visit mom in El Paso my SD wife hates that area 😆. Keep up the great videos & hope when we get our RV we run into you & Shanna.

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

Thanks Dan. We did contact them but they do not make a system for the 20,500lb F53 chassis. Additionally, the price is over $10,000 just for retrofitting the rear. Our understanding is that they are developing a LS system for Ford F53 front ends too.

@pamsalisbury7601 3 года назад

Goathead thorns have taken out a few of our bicycle tires, when we had an assignment in Carlsbad!. We are still in Florida loving the weather, before it gets to hot and humid. We try and drive 330 miles by 330 pm then find a stop. Our TPMS makes the same sound until the tires heat up. It is a lifesavers! What internet service and router is it that you have? I must have missed that video. Good to know about good sam’s MasterCard! Party 🎉 I love it! 🎉🎉stay safe!

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

Those throne are terrible for sure. Not sure which is worse, stepping in them or pulling them out. The router we have is a MOFI 4500 with an AT&T plan through No Limit Internet. We also have a Verizon plan if needed.

We signed up for Harvest Host a couple of days ago (prior to the April rate increase) and also benefited from a 20% discount due to a survey I took a few month ago. I did not realize that one actually locks in this rate for future renewals, which is great and a good deal .

Thanks for doing this video in the conditions You Guy's had to drive thru. We just purchased 2001 Fleetwood Southwind on a F53 Chassis and have a lot of driving issues as well which relates to driver fatigue. Looking at all those upgrades for Your suspension You had shown on an earlier video now I can somewhat foresee what We will notice in regards to handling improvements on Our rig. Our coach had 97K miles on it when We bought it and I have no idea how the previous Owner drove for that long on stock Ford suspensions. We are starting with the rear track bar first on Our rear axle due to the length of Our coach hanging beyond the rear axle. Once again Thanks for sharing information!

@LyfUninterrupted 2 года назад

That’s a good place to start. After that, I’d recommend a front anti-sway bar by Roadmaster or Hellwig.

@TomSpurlock 3 года назад

The search for a big gas station is a common thread. We learned by going through Texas to seek out the Buc-ees gas stations. 120 pumps! It's a real experience. I assume you used those when possible. We were just on your same route through El Paso, Fort Stockton, San Antonio, Houston, Galveston, a month ago, right after the big freeze.

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

For us, it’s not always about the cheapest gas. The ease of getting into and out of stations is more important.

@TomSpurlock 3 года назад

@@LyfUninterrupted that was my point. With 200+ pumps, there's always a pump with easy access. But you're right, their gas is usually cheap too. However, walking into the store is an experience if you haven't been there before. Good BBQ food, and lots of trinkets.

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

The first one we walked into was like Qalo king into Disneyland for the forest time. So many sights and sounds. Have you been to the worlds largest truck stop in Iowa? Now that was an experience!

@TomSpurlock 3 года назад

@@LyfUninterrupted No, I haven't been there yet, but it's marked in my Google Maps favorites to stop at in the future. However I have seen a video on that I-80 largest truck stop, it's crazy big, 900 truck parking spaces! They have 150 pumps, but you have to truckers to contend with. I'll definitely stop when I go through Iowa someday. Buc-ees is sweet with 120 pumps, but fewer truckers. They've expanded into other states besides Texas, like Alabama, Georgia, and now Florida. If I'm below half I always stop, due to the easy of access, gas price, and BBQ sandwiches, yum.

LOL Last time we were through there ... we noticed you now have to be prepared about an hour before and after entering that area ... for obvious reasons. I have NO CLUE how people in the community live with the smell 24/7/365!! Money or no ...I'd have to find a new/different occupation as opposed to living near there! LMAO That brown out looked ominous and I was sitting here hoping you could at least make it to Pecos for a decent place to pull over for a bit. I'll try to remember to tell you sometime about the day I went against hubby's desires, and outran a tornado At about 115+ mph, just south of OKC headed south!

I am curious, attention all RV owners what is the reasons why you sell your home and decide to RV tour, is it because... 1: You simply want change in your life? 2: Get out of that mortgage?

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

1..and 2😁

Have you considered SafeSteer for steering improvement?

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

Hi Bob. We has the SafeTPlus steering stabilizer, but it only does so much in higher winds. Normally our coach is very easy to drive. But that's what almost $6000 in suspension and handling upgrades will do for you!

I use good sam card at pilot and flying j I get 8 to 9 cents off a gallon didn't know you could double stack gas buddy but I get diesel

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

Interesting. Which Good Sam membership do you have that gives 8-9 cent discount? The standard membership only gives 5 cents. If you stack with Gas Buddy you’ll get 10 cents whether gas or diesel.

@heretodaygone2morrowrving231 3 года назад

So I just got the pilot card and then added the good sam elite memberships to the pilot app. They scan my phone at the fuel desk and it drops 8 to 9 cents

We know exactly how you felt. We were caught in a dust storm in Eastern Washington last Labor Day weekend. We had to shelter in a rest area for about 6 hours along with at least forty other cars, rvs and semis. We were pulling our Momentum 376th. Here is a link to the video we took..Sorry for any foul language, we were a little stressed out at the time. m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10215253679970303&id=1683330763

Hi Michael. We have a MOFI 4500 cellular router/modem and an AT&T 800GB monthly plan through No Limit Internet. We also have a smaller Verizon plan as backup. AT&T is great 95% of the time though.

@beverleeglasgow1194 Год назад

What kind of internet so do have? That lets you have it all the time ? Couldn’t catch it due to noise

@LyfUninterrupted Год назад

At the time, we were using an AT&T unlimited cellular data plan in our cellular router. Be sure to check out the video tour of our coach to learn more about our setup.

Whoa! I tow a 21ft caravan and I like to drive 58mph. 65 is a moving for a coach dragging a car. How much gas to you carry? I would have thought a Diesel engine would be better?

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

We rarely travel faster than 62mph. Still, the coach is very stable at that speed. Oddly enough, gas and diesel coaches get about the same mileage. Diesels have much more power though.

Fortunately our coach drives very nicely, so I feel perfectly safe driving like this. Even in the wind. The small fortune I spent in suspension and handling upgrades was well worth it.

The town of Anthony is in Tx and NM. I lived there for 5 years at the La Tuna federal prison. My hubs was a correctional officer. This was in the 1970s. The Old El Paso Mexican Food plant was across the street. They always hired illegals from Mexico and was regularly hit by the immigration department. They would drive up and pull all the illegals out and transport them back to the Rio Grande so they could wade back to there side.

@mtdewyx 3 года назад

Why do truckers have their lights on and their flashers on in bad road conditions going slow? If they get hit rear-ended it reduces their insurance liability. Vehicles dont follow cars because they are running with lights on in low visibility. A VEHICLE IS MORE VISIBLE IN POOR VISUAL CONDITIONS so other drivers can judge the distance better ahead of them. BRAKE LIGHTS indicate to a driver behind theres a danger ahead, im slowing down, im stopping, caution ahead, possible accident or blocked road ahead.

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

To each their own. Our advice to motorists is to heed the very large yellow signage all along the roadway in that area telling them what to do in the event of a dust storm. That way we're not simply stating our opinion or providing information that is inaccurate and unsafe. Thanks for tuning in.

@joycejohnson1396 3 года назад

I disagree pull over with your four ways flashing.

@LyfUninterrupted 3 года назад

Certainly your choice. DPS advises otherwise. The herd instinct in humans causes them to follow any type of lights, which is a major factor in pileups in limited to no visibility situations.

@joycejohnson1396 3 года назад

Ok will look into this.
