    I towed a Time Out behind a Harley-Davidson and lived on the road from 2014-2018. Coast to coast 4 times, touched every continental State. Saw amazing things. Best time of my life!

    Robert Wells, commonly known as "Bob", should be given the title of " Goodwill Ambassador". He never expected this channel would grow into something to what it is today. He's made an impact on many people's lives and that's priceless at the end of the day.

      It's really a tardus: the interior opens into another dimension. But seriously, watch out for wind storms. A friend had his tent destroyed by wind in Death Valley in summer when the wind came up in the afternoon heat.

    Whenever I watch a new CheapRVliving video I think there's nothing new, then BOOM, another huge surprise! What a fantastic trailer! When Bob said mansion he meant it: two separate areas, a king-size bed, panoramic windows, lots of storage and height. This is one of my favorite videos...I know I'll say this again soon! lol

  • @Steelhorsecowboy
    @Steelhorsecowboy 5 років тому +5

    When you travel in a car you watch pictures pass by. When you ride a bike you ride in the warmth of the sun and down under the tree canopy into coolness. You smell cut grass, barbeque, pine. Lavender and food cooking, etc. It stimulates all your senses. There is an overwhelming feeling of freedom. Any depression, stress or anxiety disappears as the wind blows through your hair.
    I have traveled on my Harley Road King with a small tent and slept on a "tanker roll" like I did in the Army but that was nothing like this rig.

    My first camper was one of these! I pulled it with my Buick Enclave. I especially loved how spacious it was. It was great, however. I'm 5'4" and struggled putting the rods up for the tent part of the camper. The rods had those little buttons you had to push in to extend it or make smaller and it was just not easy, so after awhile I sold it to another person and purchased a TAB 400 teardrop trailer!! I can see why a guy would especially love this little camper. For me, as a woman, I wanted places to hang my clothes and to store things. It's just the greatest camper! Just not right for me at this time of my life. (I'm 71) Did I tell you how much I love my Nucamp TAB 400??

I put around 50,000 miles on it over a 4yr span. Always had to sleep in an old A-frame style tent.😁 If I'd had a trailer like this back in the day, there's no telling where I would've wound going with it. Watching this video has caused an awful lot of awesome memories to come flooding back.

    We have this - ours is a red body but, same exact pop-up. My husband’s done a ton of camping in it, pulled by a Goldwing. To give himself a bigger living area, he adds an EZ up with removable walls to the front of the pop up, and that really extends that living space.
    Anyhow, great story, safe travels to you, sir, and shiny side up!

    Wow, Bob is very engaged in this interview, the most engaged I have seen him, and this bike fella really has his ducks in a row and knows what he likes. Very nice to see. Cheers

    I sure would have liked to see that trailer all packed up. This is one way too go and its the way I'd choose. Absolutely amazing.

    Hi all, been riding with a kompac tent trailer for four years and enjoy it. I've gone cross country, the Rockies, smokie mountain's and Key West.
    I ride a Goldwing 1500 with 35 mpg
