@@LacroixCruiser A municipal “rule” would be an ordinance, which is a law, which is enforceable whether Walmart wants it enforced or not. Glad it wasn’t an issue for you or anyone else staying there that night.
Congratulations on hitting the road and Happy birthday and New year and we wish you safe travels from Rick and Pam from southern Ohio at Big Bear Creek family campground
Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to meet you maybe one day. I am in the dreaming stage for a skoolie. I am disabled in a wheelchair but I believe it could be done. I live in NC. Be safe and keep the videos coming because they give us a new glimpse in the travel world. Billy n NC
It is really coming together. I will be interested in how it scales out, especially if/when you can get individual wheel weights. You will be about 70 miles from our place in SE lower Michigan as you pass through the Toledo portion of northern Ohio, but this time of year was not a great time to invite you to stop. Driveway full of our own cars and RVs, and snow on the ground.
@@LacroixCruiser I know you have paid attention to weight and balance, but I wasn’t aware you had done that since finishing the bus and loading it for travel. Was the slide out toolbox installed, for example?
Sylvie and Yvan... I and my wife have watched your videos since the beginning of this build. We have been educated and entertained. Sylvie you are a hoot! We are about halfway thru the conversion of our 2001 C2045L Van Hool. We live about 3 miles from the fairgrounds where the Tampa tiny home show is. We would love to share a great meal with you and we promise not to ask you too many questions lol.
Oh I felt for you out in the freezing cold having to fix that. Have we seen the inside totally done? Cuz I don't think so I would love to see it. Safe and happy travels and maybe we'll see you when you get down in my neck of the woods in Florida😘
@@LacroixCruiser I'll try, it would be nice to meet ya'll. I have to get somebody to bring me, because the doctors haven't cleared me to drive yet. When are ya'll planning to be in Cobbtown?
@@LacroixCruiser I have a ride, Saturday or Sunday, which ever is convenient for y'all. Will the weather affect your drive time to Cobbtown. My son is in N C , and he says it's bad there, icy roads. Y'all be careful driving down here. Just let me know if y'all are still coming to Cobbtown. On the upside, THERE IS NO SNOW ❄😁 hope to meet y'all
I am kinda surprised with the size of the generator yall have. With your solar, and whole setup I didn't think you needed near that. I was looking at a 2200 range super quiet and I have a lead on a stand alone unit from a semi with autostart and inverter deal. Should I put my genset in? You got me wondering!
You have more electric stuff than my flx. But having a washer and dryer the reason for the bigger generator? Sorry ignore me lol. I'm thinking out loud
It’s a 5500w Diesel, it’s the smallest diesel we could find, we didn’t want to have to carry a different fuel. The generator only really serves for the block heater.
Ok here we go! Water tanks. I saw your episode on your tank build. I really want baffles because I want 250-300 gals fresh. I can not seem to find what I am looking for. Do you have any suggestions? Can I pay you to build a couple for me lol?
@@LacroixCruiser I have situation where that much water might be a life saver. I could be in the 250 range. Finding with baffles is the problem for me not the weight. Suggestions?
Bon voyage et sante. Jespere que je peux fait la meme chose. Cest trop froid maintenant a Alberta. Proche de moins quarante chaque soir. Quand est ce que vous aller au Alberta? Je voudrais prends mon bus a Quebec quelque jour pour voir mon famille. Ou allez vous pour cette voyage? Floride? Vous avez faire un bon job avec votre bus.
I love how you put the control panel on a hinge above the washer dryer so that you can have access to the back of it. Well done.
Thank you
Happy Birthday Yvan welcome to the US hope you all have a good time take care
Thank you
That FIAT has seen better "summer" days.
Yes it has
Safe traveling yall.
Thank you
At 24:12 you are parked in front of sign the says “NO overnight parking”. Gotta love it.
Municipal rules, Walmart themselves accept it. We were not the only ones there.

@@brucefay5126 many Walmart’s have the signs, but when you ask the on duty manager they invite you to stay.
Safe travels! See you at MTE in Orlando in a couple of weeks.
Thank you
I would love to meet you. When you come to florida. I live in the St Petersburg / Clearwater area. Drive safe. I hope to see you.
Likewise we will be at the tiny home show on the 29th and 30th.
Lol. I like how you camp right in front of the no parking overnight sign 🤣🤣
It’s a municipal sign, the Walmart itself condones us parking with them.
Bon voyage et profiter en en masse ,vos video sont très instuctif
Merci

We have weighed the bus numerous times, it’s well balanced.
@@LacroixCruiser I know you have paid attention to weight and balance, but I wasn’t aware you had done that since finishing the bus and loading it for travel. Was the slide out toolbox installed, for example?
@@brucefay5126 it was done 30 miles after we left for this trip.
You have some guts driving in the snow at night!
Buses are designed to run in all conditions, 24x7.
@@SomeTechGuy666 That's true, but I find myself happier when I am not driving my MC9 on dark, rain/snow slicked roads.
I prefer driving at night( will be better once I upgrade the lights), and having lived in Canada all my life, a few inches of snow isn’t a concern.

What was the cost on the Cross fire system, what TPMS did you use & where did you purchase your slides for tool box & bbq?

Why so much water? That’s 2400 lbs if you go for 300 gallons.

In that case have a welder make you one out of stainless steel.
I am SO jealous. How does it drive ?
Beautifully
@@LacroixCruiser Yeah, I bet. One of the best reasons to get a coach.

Any idea as to the “root cause” of the ATEC fuse opening?
My only thought is a rogue snow flake.

Well done
