    We ordered a Panoramic 3/2021 due to watching your first Pano video with Philippe. Our Pano due to be delivered end of 2023, yahoo. Thank you for turning us on to Panoramic RV, as we never liked any other class B van we inspected or rented. Was lucky to have Phillippe's parents visit us at our home here in Lake Tahoe NV last year. Pops toured us over every detail of the Pano as they were traveling in one. Natalie of Pano setup for us as she knew we lived here. Great business sense they have. Enjoy and thank you again

    Thank you for all these videos. Every time I learn little essential things. During a month-long trip in 2005, I visited the American Southwest, including San Francisco. We had a van with only a bed and a cooler, and it was a fantastic trip. Imagine when I will return with my future Panoramic once retired, with all its luxury amenities, and no time limit. There are so many places I wish I had stayed longer. This is only a postponement.

      Wonderful! sometimes you don’t need any more than a bed and a cooler.

    I grew up in the Bay Area. My wife worked in San Francisco. Watching your videos brings back a lot of good memories of the Bay Area. When we moved to El Dorado Hills, we took drives all over the area including Outingdale. Again your trips to visit your parents reminds me of living in the Sierra foothills.
    We have been fortunate to have lived in the most beautiful places on the Pacific Coast, the Bay Area, Carmel, El Dorado Hills, Seattle and now in Bend Oregon. I have always loved to take scenic drives.
    We have an American Coach Ford Patriot that we bought in late 2021. In addition to camping along the Oregon Coast, we have stayed at Harvest Host locations, wineries and farms, including a wind farm in the Columbia River Gorge. We like to take our van on day trips to places like Smith Rock just north of Bend. We pack a lunch buckle up the dogs and go. The dogs love the walks at Smith Rock.

    It is so beautiful there. Over 40 years ago I used to work in the building right behind the Pyramid building and I would sit at my desk and look down Columbus so the view that you shot was the opposite of what I saw every workday. I have to admit, I don't miss the commute. 😂

    Enjoyed this video so much -- what a great place to hang out for breakfast -- who ordered the weather? Sunny San Francisco on a winter morning!!! I definitely am going to give that adventure a try. We've done multiple trips going up 1 from Gualala to Mendocino for brunch then on to a winery or two in the Anderson Valley in the afternoon then having dinner on the way back. Campervans are the way to go for day tripping too... Nice pictures of the Panoramic especially through the red sculpture

We will be headed to Chambly Thursday morning to meet with Phillipe to tour the Panoramic factory and look at our options before completing our order guide for our rig which will be completed in May. We are beyond excited. We wait for your Sunday videos like little children. Thanks for all you do.

    When I used to visit for business, which was in Milpitas, California, San Jose area, watching the traffic every morning blew my mind. An ocean of car headlights in stop and go traffic at 4 am every morning as far as you could see from my hotel window. When talking with employees there, they seem to live for work. Leave for work at 2-3 am, arrive at 5-6 am, and leave that afternoon for home around 2-4 pm, getting home around 5-7 pm. Then rinse and repeat. I had a few offers to move out there… but the commute time scared me. LOL!

    • @Ultramobility
      @Ultramobility  Рік тому +1

      You nailed it. The Silicon Valley ethos of “work first” still thrives but fortunately the pandemic has strangely changed workers. they no longer accept the requirement of having to commute to the office and waste all that time. while traffic is still bad it is much less worse than it used to be. downtown San Francisco is a ghost town since the pandemic.

    Nice job! So, I guess you guys passed on having dinner in San Francisco? It’s difficult enough finding parking for a car let alone a camper van. The Legion of Honor did look like a resort, but not the place you would want to leave your camper unattended - a real shame in so many parts of San Francisco.

    Good point for the inverter. The airstream rangeline’s kitchen outlet is not connected to its 2000w inverter. That is disappointing.

      I've heard mixed reviews about the Rangeline. We considered one until learning of fit and finish issues-as well as the funky inverter distribution. I'm about 60 days away from taking the Panoramic plunge. I blame you, Neil.

    While watching your video, having my morning pour over coffee in man cave SÉRENDIPITÉ (the Pano). Question: I didn’t see the WG wifi until I turned on the WeBoost. Do I have to enable the WeBoost for Winegard wifi to work? Btw, watching you drive around SF city reminds me of our recent pass through Key West (narrow city streets, traffic, pedestrians). We had our tea time parked a block from the Hemingway house.

    • @Ultramobility
      @Ultramobility  Рік тому +1

      Indeed it is. We had a little furry rodent in the garage weeks back. Not sure how it got in so this trap is a safety. Have not had any intruders since so I’ll chalk it up to maybe not closing the sliding door completely and leaving enough space for a mouse to get in.
