    Aye.... E.G. is 15 minutes from me. When in Wimauma again - definitely hit up Taqueria El Sol. They make the best tacos I've ever eaten. Indeed Cockroach Bay makes for some nice fishing! Also, Apollo Beach preserve is (well.. was) a nice little hidden gem for beach going and shore fishing.

    My 1-ton ram we'll get 23 miles to the gallon with your entire rig on my trailer 😜 at 70 miles an hour.
    But 20,000 pounds on the trailer and it drops to 14 to 16.
    That Park is a great place to fish been many years since I was there. 👍👍👍

    Love your channel! I’m a Florida camper as well, living in the Tampa area. Thanks a bunch for your thorough reviews of the campgrounds and all your gear. I looked at the runaways but have decided on a casita that I’ll be getting this fall / winter. You guys have inspired me to go ahead and get a kayak in the meantime. In the last month I’ve done Ginnie and blue spring sp, and am headed to desoto this weekend. This place looks worth checking out too. Of all of the campgrounds in Florida what’s your favorite?

    • @OverlandFlorida
      @OverlandFlorida  5 років тому

      Thanks for watching! A casita is really nice!! Hillsborough River State park is pretty nice. There's many activities to do there and it's rather large compared to some parks. Highland Hammock state park has some nice walking trails and board walks. But there's no river to paddle on.

    Digging the new set up! Just got back from Ginnie myself, such an awesome place. If you’re paddling make sure to hit up Lilly springs up river a few miles.

    • @OverlandFlorida

      Awesome, thanks. I'll have to remember that. I kayaks Ginnie Springs a few weeks ago. I'm sure I'll be back soon. Once I i stall AC lol

    Nice truck Kevin, that Raccoon was a stinker, I would have named him Rocket and taught him how to build random shit, LOL. I like the way you pulled up your kayak simple and easy, sweet mileage bud, my 2007 Ford Expedition EL 4x4 just pulled 20.2mpg today on the way back from the ranch, I think it would have been higher if I was half sasquatch. Looks like Florida and southern Colorado is having the same weather too, thunderstorms and hail are the norm this year.

    • @OverlandFlorida
      @OverlandFlorida  6 років тому

      Haha, I'll call him rocket next time. 20mpg is outstanding for an expedition. We've had some bad storms the last couple days. We even lost power a few times.

      That's a great place. Hopefully you avoided the deep holes! We'll have to go out exploring sometime.
      Did you go to the caves?

      Overland Florida didnt make it to the caves. I hit some deep stuff. Ripped one of my side steps off.

    23mpg!!!! That's awesome. My '13 doesn't get that kind of mileage... I need to start saving now I guess. Bring the hammock to RockaDock ;)

    • @OverlandFlorida
      @OverlandFlorida  6 років тому

      Keep the 13! My truck has a corolla engine and is a bit under powered. That's why it has a 6spd transmission. But the alternative is great MPG commuting.
