Glad you enjoyed it Dan! That makes OUR day! 🧡😁🤓
'lil Lady got her tummy full & fell asleep? Adorable! Great video capture! New to you folks. Think you've caught my attention. You folks are really great when it Comes to keeping someone's attention. I loved your video, as much as those crazy couple at the end posing for the next pumpkin smile carving. I really enjoyed this video. Great music selection, beautiful scenery. All whining kept in a bottle. Very good spirits! As they say in fishing, I'm hooked, I'll bite. Thumbs up for sure. 👍
Wow thanks so much for the great comment, Kimberly!! We are so happy you enjoyed the video! It makes our day when we hear that! Thanks so much for watching! 🧡😁🤓
By using Harvest Host you support local economy, local growers and farms. 👍
Absolutely! Great point that we should of mentioned. 🧡😊🤓
Oh my god we love your videos and finally got to watch all of them . We are still cracking up with your ending. Thank you for all your adventures and great sense of humor‘s. Can’t wait for your next video. Safe travels to you both!!
Wow thanks for watching ALL the videos and the kudos, we really appreciate it! Glad you’re enjoying them. 🧡😁🤓
Great video... OK.. the ending has me laughing out loud!! LOVE IT! Thanks for taking us along guys!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed our “friends” at the end! 😂
You drove within 3 miles of our house when you got on I-74 near Brownsburg, IN. That music was awesome. Thanks for a great video. We leave for South Dakota Friday the 12th.
That would of been nice to of been able to stop and meet you guys!
Thank you! 😊🤓
We love the Black Hills in SD! Safe travels!
ALWAYS run when buying wine ! The one and only wine I drink comes from Bar Harbor Cellars on mt dessert island, ME. We went up late this year and they were sold out 😩 soooo before leaving the island we made reservations for June next year. I only have four bottles to get me from (11/21) to June 2022 😬😬😬
Wow! That must be some really good wine! 😮
I love. That y’all were in my neck of the woods. I live in California now but I grew up in Georgetown IN ; and Louisville KY. At my high school the year before my graduating class had their prom at Hubers. It’s soo nice to see the area again and I can’t wait until I finish/ start my renovation of my class A so I can head back that way!
Oh nice! Please keep us up to date on your Class A progress, sounds very exciting! 😊🤓
ABSOLUTELY enjoyed traveling along with you two. I do have a complaint. I nearly choked to death at the end!! Coffee everywhere! LOL STILL! THANKS SAFE TRAVELS
Aww Thank you so much! 🧡😊🤓
😂🤣😂🤣
Nice traveling video guy's ..lol the ending was great...stay safe!
Thanks you! 😊🤓
“Buddy” and “Mabel” are a hoot! 😂🤣
Its pretty cool to see someone we follow come so close. We live in the Quad Cities! Safe travels!
🧡 Wish we could of met y’all when we were there! 😊🤓
As always great video! Learn a lot! Keep safe on the road and enjoy your trip!
Thank you Ramon! 🧡😊🤓
Been to that Truck Stop often! Then go across the street to Grandma’s Kitchen for good food and an Apple Dumplin’....
Omg! Apple dumplin sounds SOOOO good right now! 🤓
Great travel video. Becky and I got home to NC from Florida and Hilton Head March 1st. We’ve been sequestered here since but will travel again in two weeks. Your videos always make us smile. Safe travels. Harold & Becky
Thank you very much! Safe travels on your next destination! 🧡😊🤓
We had a class C years ago and it was great for traveling with our young sons. But the upkeep and maintenance of the drive train and mechanical systems was a constant point of stress for me.
Now we are retired and for us a 5th wheel was the ticket.
Thanks for sharing...every little bit of info helps us all. Appreciate your feedback so much! 🧡😊🤓
Saturday morning cannot come quick enough! Love your vids! We are looking to get back on the road this fall!!
That’s very sweet and kind of you, thank you so much! 🧡😊🤓 Fall will come quick...safe travels and stay safe!
Always enjoy your videos. I'll look into harvest hosts when I get my next camper
Thanks Doreen! We want to stay at more Harvest Hosts when we get the opportunity during our travels. A fun experience! 🧡😁🤓
y'all crack me up!
Been watching quietly for awhile, ( from around the time you were searching for another RV at the show in FL) That was a haul from TN have been on I40 often enough to know the rocks on the sides of the road. & I enjoyed the Harvest Host pit stops
Glad you’re enjoying the videos!! Thanks for watching! 🧡😁🤓
saw you went by my home town of Bettendorf and then I-80 truck stop, enjoyed the video...
Yes we did! 😊🤓 Thank you! 🧡
We prefer state parks. We only do private parks if they are TTs just to save money and do laundry. Full time fun 🤣. We love our Grand Design fifth wheel. We haven’t done a Harvest Host yet. Cute kitty. Good tip about defrosting freezer. What is your Tornado plan? That’s freaky to look at. That weird face thing. Stay safe. Alice
We usually stay at TT if available in the area but there aren’t any through the middle of the US. So staying at the Harvest Hosts is a nice change and fun experience. They are only meant for overnight dry camping so it’s a nice stop on the way to a destination. Thanks for watching! 🧡😁🤓
Awesome 👏🏼 video thank you guys for sharing
Thank you for watching! 🧡
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣. You two make quite a handsome couple!!!!!
😂 Aww thank you! 🧡😊🤓
A great video. You covered a lot of "ground". 🙂
Thank you! 🧡😁🤓
You guys would be a riot to camp with! Lol.
😊🤓 only after an adult beverage...otherwise we’re very boring. 😂
Oh crud, the good Hubers Orchards and Winery is like a mile down the road from Joe Hubers. It is like waaay better. But not a Harvest Host? I live only 5 miles from it
We should of took a drive down to it. Thanks for the tip Jackie! Wish we would of known, we would of met you there! 😊🤓
Oh how I always have a good laugh, I mean laugh out loud. This time it was “burgers for days” “we had chicken for the last two days.” “Woof.” I LRV how you pause the video to show the Hwy signs too.
It always makes our day to hear you enjoyed our video! 🧡😁🤓
Hi guys I just subscribed to your channel I think it's a good Channel I appreciate you guys doing what you're doing and teaching people and having fun that's a good thing I'm selling my home in Arkansas and I'm thinking about going RV
👍🏼🖖🏼🤟🏼🇺🇲🇵🇷😊
Thanks so much Peter!! That’s what we like to hear! All we want is to help people by providing some information and a little humor. 😊 Feel free to ask us any questions you may have about the fulltime RV-living. You can always contact us by sending a private message on our LivinRVision Facebook page or through our website LivinRVision.com/contact. 🧡😁🤓
Really think your RV is missing a kitten just like that!!!!...did she say “wind down” or “wine down”??!!! Lol
Brian would definitely agree with you about the kitten, David! If that one didn’t belong to the Huber family, it may have come with us! Lol “wine down”! The white wine we had that day was very good and did the trick of relaxing us. We haven’t tried the red one yet. Thanks for watching!! 🧡🤓
Liked your tutorial on Trip Wizard. We plan on using it for our future travels. Did notice that the dates on TW were the first week of June but you had been in Iowa for three weeks. Curious
Thanks! The dates on Trip Wizard were not correct. I was JUST telling Michelle...I thought about blurring those dates out because you wait and see, someone will take notice and ask...but I just left it. 😂 When I was messing around with TW, I never did set the dates correctly and simply didn’t worry about it. Once you start using TW you will see what I’m talking about eventually. 😊 That indeed was 3 weeks ago. 😊
Another great video! We just switched from a Tiffin Class A...although we loved it, I didn’t like no protection up front. We now have a Renegade Super C ... we both drive now... it is like a big pickup feel! Still 40 feet...but goes down the road like a solid tank in the truck chassis. Still a diesel... A whole different feel. Hope you find the one you like.
Thank you! 😊🤓 Exactly how we feel as well with the protection. National Indoor RV Centers now sell a product that mounts inside the front tires in case of a blowout and you can drive on it for a short distance BUT, there is still safety concerns as you mentioned.
The Super C is one we have been looking at. How do you feel about the quality of the Renegade? Which model do you have? What mpg have you been getting? We just haven’t seen the quality of Newmar or Tiffin out there for the money.
We looked for a long time! Would of loved if Tiffin made a Super C...as we love the Tiffin product. Renegade makes an awesome rig! They don’t make many, so they are very hard to find. We bought a 2019 Verona LE LRB from a couple in Florida that only took one trip in it and because of health reasons had to sell. It is the bath and a half model, which we really like. It only had about 10K miles. My husband and son flew to Florida, picked it up and drove it back to AZ. We LOVE it! The best thing is how it handles on the road, and we have drove many including the largest Tiffin Bus they make. The biggest difference to me is the big engine up front and as far as MPG, I will check with Lon, but I am thinking about 9-10.
Thanks so much for the feedback! We’ve heard a few people on some Facebook groups that like them, but alway like to hear from as many as possible.
Good video y’all make a RV change y’all might miss that tankless WH ps . Y’all about to be near my old stomping grounds Des Moines
Thanks Tex! Yes we would miss that tankless but would love to have instant hot. 😉 Des Moines is where we are from before going full time.
I agree....
😜
I look forward to your videos...Hubby and I will sell the hs and hit the road 5 yrs...Im doing homework now. 🇺🇸🏕
Thanks Pamela! We’re excited for your 5yr plan! Please let us know if you have any questions we can help answer regarding RVing or FT RV living. You have the right idea to start researching now! 🧡😁🤓
Have you considered a Super C like the Renegade Verona 34'? I love the Renegade line of Super C's, but they are not cheap.
We have considered and we do like those as well. 👍🏻 Just not sure it’s going to fit our needs “right now”.
So sounds like you are looking to get a different RV?? If so, what year is your current RV and am sure you will compose another video on why wanting to get away from your Class A. Thank you both for the great videos!
We are, our biggest reason is we want something Michelle feels more comfortable driving.
Once we figure out what we want to go to next, then we plan to make a video why we went with what we bought.
Listening to others reasons why they bought what they did is always good to remind yourself of the pros and cons, but I would buy what best firs your personal situation. We have reasons related to our UA-cam channel also. It’s a very tough decision and there is not a one RV fits all.
Thank you for watching and being a part of the. Visionary Gang! 🧡😊🤓
We see Harvest Host as an the 'experience'. Yes, we're still spending money but with Harvest Host, instead of paying for full hook ups in a crowded lot we're paying for an experience. Makes the journey more fun.
Thanks for your feedback. We totally agree!! We will be using them more often when possible. 🧡😁🤓
Nice video. Was impressed with your stay in Pigeon Forge so booked the same resort in July. Thanks for the tip! One question, noticed a camera on your windshield. Assume that is for accident recording. If so, what brand are you using? Thanks
Thanks! We hope you enjoy your stay there!
The camera is our GoPro that we use for Timewarp videos mostly.
Thanks again! 🧡😊🤓
First time viewing. I've had all the types of RVs over 60 yrs of RVing but prefer my diesel pusher. My Newmar is easier to drive than all the other set-ups we've had even towing a car trailer. Generally, only residential refrigerators on motorhomes are designed to run off the inverters automatically. Would you believe we've never stayed at a Walmart? Do you have a TSD fuel card? Saves $$$
Welcome! 🧡😊🤓 Truly appreciate your input. They do ride very nice and we love our Newmar... I mean Vinny, 😊 It’s not about that for us. There are a few reasons we are looking to change. We understand all the pros and cons very clearly but there are additional concerns for us, including Michelle simply WILL NOT drive the Class A and I really need to free up my hands for quick shots for our videos that she also doesn’t feel comfortable with or doesn’t have the same thought process to make those quick decisions.
We do have the TSD card. Sorry we didn’t clarify that in the video...we look at the r
TSD rates along our route and locate the best rates once the tank is past 1/2 a tank. We find we get the biggest savings doing so. We saved over a dollar a gallon in Florida before we left. That was a big savings. 👍🏻😊🤓
@@LivinRVision My wife doesn't even have a drivers license. I have insurance that will get our RV back to our home base if anything happens and I can't drive. Our Newmar is named Seemore.
Good video thanks for sharing where are you guys headed to?
Thank you! 🧡😊🤓 We try to keep our videos a little behind for safety reasons, but we can tell you this...we were in Iowa for 3 weeks visiting some family and now deciding on our next destination.
Up in Canada all campgrounds still closed!
Really? All campgrounds? We really don’t understand that as most we have been to only close their buildings/bathhouses/amenities. When everyone is in their “home” on their site there’s not much difference than at a sticks and bricks.
Camping is starting to open now in Canada. Moving from one Province to another is still sometimes not aloud. But it’s starting to open. Canadians are very Cautious.
Sounds like they were smart after hearing all the recent spikes in the US. Stay safe Robert and hopefully safe travels soon! 😊🤓
New to your channel...Love your editing
Appreciate that, thanks! 😊🤓
lol thank yous putting all my shit from the old 5th wheel to the new 5th wheel be safe have fun o your already having fun
What 5th wheel did you buy?
montana 235 rl 2021
just noticed you are driving a ventana. can i ask what model and your overall satisfaction with it? we we are going this week to the factory to check out the 3407 ventana model.
Vinny is the 3960. Vinny has been very good to us so far. We especially like that it does not use DEF like all the newer ones do. They just don’t build them now like they used to. Vinny is for sale btw. 😉
Wind down and wine up! :)
🍷 🤪😂
What is the title and who is the artist of the song that played when you left the gas station by the world's largest truck stop? Very pretty and catchy tune.
The song is “Fighting Another Day” by Thyra. The song was so fitting for the scene so familiar to us. 😊🤓
@@LivinRVision my husband and I said the same thing. Our goal is to sell our home when I retire from teaching in 9 or 10 years and hit the road in an rv. We love watching y'all!
Glad you’re enjoying the videos! Exciting to hear of your future plans!!
What happened with the Kitten? If you went through NW Indiana you went by a couple miles from me.
The kitten followed us up to where we ordered food and one of the workers came and got it and took it back to where it belonged. Sure was cute!
We didn’t make it through NW Indiana.
Very funny and entertaining video. Thanks so much.
Glad you enjoyed it Dennis! 🧡😁🤓
What music group do you have on your videos?
We get all of our music from Epidemic Sound.
Who the artist for the song you played in the last part of the video?
Hi Darrell! The song is, “Fighting Another Day” by Thyra. Thanks for watching! 🧡😁🤓
Why haven’t you gotten the TSD fuel card. We’ve save soooo much on diesel gas.
That’s what we are using and what we were looking for as we travel. The cheapest fuel through TSD. We simply forgot to mention it in this video. I should of added text. We talked about the TSD card in our previous video.
LivinRVision that’s awesome.
There were some huge discounts a few weeks ago when we left Florida. We saved quite a bit with our TSD card. We also have an affiliate link below in the description for TSD for those that are interested.
For the freezer, we use these light cutting mats on the back wall. Makes it much faster to defrost because the ice sticks to it. Pull it out every 2 weeks to clean on extended trips. Safe travels.
Norpro Flexible Gripping Cutting... www.amazon.com/dp/B001FB59M2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
We’ve seen this done before also and have thought about trying it. Thanks for sharing!
Great vid guys, lovin the driving scenes.
Thanks! The travel vids are our favorites to do. Wish we could do them every time. 😊🤓
I am sure you have heard it before but wow you and Jake Tapper of CNN are doppelgängers incredible likeness. Really enjoy your videos and sense of humor
Really? I don’t believe I’ve heard that one. Hope that’s a good thing. 😉
Thank you so much David! 😊🤓
Love the ending that was great! 😂
😂🤣🤪
You both are awesome!!!
😘
Awww that’s so sweet Francine! 🧡🤗🤓
Great video guys! 🙂🙂
Thank you Dean! 😊🤓
So funny🤣🤣🤣
The 2 cheapest things you can put in your car or MH are the BEST fuel and oil you can buy! Think about it.
You are so funny and I like your videos
Thanks William! We’re glad you’re enjoying the videos! 🧡😁🤓
What’s the name of that song, anybody know?
Hi Bob...Which song? There was multiple songs used.
Thanks but I found it. “Fighting another day” Great choice.
Thank you! We like it also 😊
Hello I have been following you for some time I really enjoy your channel I watched your video that your selling your RV Have you ever thought of a Super C I hope you will look at them in 2 years maybe less If I can downsize everything I'm wanting a Newmar 2020 I realize there is others out there I just think that is want fits me I have been watching videos for a year and looking up everything I can to learn as much as I can Let me know your thoughts not just a ❤ Please Maybe I will see a video 🤞 soon Take a look at IWS 2018 Renegade XL 9791 (Renegade)
Hi Elizabeth, thank you so much! Yes...a Super C is one we have been looking at but we’ve also been wanting to downsize. Hard to say what we will do...just not 100% sure yet.
Newmar is a very well built coach, which is why we went with ours after researching. Tiffin makes a good coach as well and has great customer service from what we have heard. It sounds like you are doing the right thing with your research. 👍🏻
Have you looked at 2021 dynamax isata 5 ? And At one time I was look at luxe Elite 5th wheels super nice
I don’t believe we have, but we’ve looked at so many that our heads are spinning. 😂 We may have if they were at the Tampa Show. We’ll take another peak to be sure. Thanks so much for the suggestion! 🧡😊🤓
Where r the harvest host and their names
Hi Susan! When you watch the video, you will notice the names and addresses listed. There’s a big text box that scrolls at the bottom left to tell you.
Sorry I see it now. I got distracted while watching😏
No worries...you are fine. 🧡😊🤓
Enjoy your Videos get that pie girl 👍🏼😁
Thank you! 🧡😊🤓
🥧 🏃♀️ 😂
How can you just leave a little kitten like that. I just un subscribed good riddance.
The kitten lives there. A lady from the market store came and got it.
