- In today's travel vlog, I discuss why i chose a class b van for full time RV living in a Winnebago Travato.
I've had my RV two weeks and and released two videos:
1 - RV NEWBIE First 48 Hours of RV Living in a Winnebago Travato 🚙 1st BLACK TANK Dump! • RV NEWBIE First 48 Hou...
2 - Tour of My Winnebago TRAVATO 59KL National Park Edition 🚙 Class B CAMPER VAN Tour
• Tour of My Winnebago T...
These videos RV living, van life videos have done pretty well so far. I never realized how many people would be interesting in my RV life in a Winnebago Travato campervan. It's been awesome to see s many interested in my tiny house on whees. h
I answer a bunch of different questions in this video about RV living in a van including:
Why I chose a class b van?
Why I chose the Winnebago Travato 59KL National Park Edition?
How much my RV cost and what other versions of the Travato cost.
Where will I be going RV camping in. the future?
What is the Volta Power System? Do I like Volta, Would I recommend Volta.
I picked up my Winnebago Travato 59KL National Park Edition 2 weeks ago and have been making this van life dream camper into my tiny home on wheels. I bought this campervan with full time RV living in mind. I have been fascinated with the RV lifestyle and the tiny home movement for a while. I've been a minimalist for the last 5 years and began living in nothing but studio apartments a few years ago. So the transition into the RV life in the Winnebago Travato has been pretty easy.
Even though it is a tiny home on wheels this RV has plenty of storage space. I'm a bit spoiled with all the upgrades that the Winnebago Travato 59KL National Park Edition class b van comes with. I am still preparing for life on the road and the quote/unqoute vanlife RV living, RV lifestyle! But it's been a ton a fun.
Let me know what you think of my RV - the Winnebago Travato 59KL National Park edition class b van! I am excited about sharing my experience with the RV living and van life communities and learning all the RV tips and tricks from more experienced RV living and van life veterans!

Thank you for your service, Master Chief! I am a retired Coast Guard Chief, keep up the amazing videos!
Appreciate that brother!
Great video! I love your channel because you get right to the point. No mindless chatter, just good information. Looking forward to your next vlog.
Haha...I try! Thank you for watching Carol! You're awesome! :)
Thank you so much for your service!
What a great video! you are very talented with your video skills.
This was a great video that hooked me in and I watched the whole thing.
I cant wait to watch you on your journey!
You comment made my day. Thanks Matt. I've watched a ton of your reviews!
You've managed to put a bigger retirement bug up our rear end's because of your great vids! Thanks for laying all of your reasoning out- it really helps. The Boss Lady isn't quite sure if she would like the wet bath setup, seems like she would prefer a closed off shower. They're out there, you just have to find them. Enjoy your trip to the Tetons- if you get a chance head over the pass from Jackson to Victor, ID- great little town. My wife's Father was part owner of a Dude Ranch there called Moose Creek Ranch. Absolutely beautiful country and they would probably let you boondock there. Safe travels.
Yeah...the shower isn't ideal to be honest...so I get what the Boss Lady is saying! Thanks for the recommendation...I'll look for it. And thanks again for watching.
Salute Senior!!! Thank you for your dedicated service, your leadership and training of those moving up through the ranks under your supervision!
Ahh you're too kind! Thanks!
You earned everything in your possession. Thank you for your service to our country. Freedom isn’t free. It comes from the courage and sacrifice of individuals. Enjoy your journey.
Thanks Jafri!
Great , fair to the point commentary. Thanks. Enjoy your travels and thanks for your service.
Thanks Joe...should be an exciting adventure.
The yellow body stripe is most definitely eye-catching. However, the light gray stripe is very distinguished. Good pick!
Thanks! I like it.
The gray seems to blend into the van better as with the fact that the yellow looks like a neon sign drawing too much attention.
I dont think this is overpriced. Its your house. You paid for quality and you are saving on lots of costs that come with a house.
Nice, organized video. Thanks!😊
Thanks Amy...lots of folks don't get that! :)
Just getting started with the RV bug, so you're info is really great....will be watching to see how this RV performs for you.....All the best.....ENJOY!!!!
Hi Carol! Just be warned...Im a complete newbie! Im still learning as well! :)
That is a sweet ride! You will have so many amazing adventures!! I'm excited to follow along!
Aww thank you! :)
Your videos are great, thanks for doing them.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and commenting, sorry it took me so long to reply, I was out of cell service for a week.
First off... thank you so much for your service! It's important to recognize your sacrifices!
Next, as always, wonderful video! So much better than my vids!! You are detailed, explain things clearly, and keep my interest... everything you need in a video!
Can't wait to see more about your experiences and travel in the RV.
Be seeing you!
Haha...I've got a ton of practice...my early vids were awful! You are way better than I was! Thanks for watching and coming back, friend. Really appreciate that.
Great Video and Great Points on why you chose the Class B Travato! I have a Class C which I will be doing a video on soon. Also .... awesome list of places you have mapped out to begin your adventure! Im looking forward to the videos!
I'm subbed to your channel already...looking forward to the tour.
I love how open honest and detailed you are. Thanks from D in OKC 👌🏻
You are so welcome!
I’m so happy you recognised how fortunate you are! That’s an immense quality to have especially as we have a saying in the U.K. THAT “MUCH WANT’S MORE” I am also the type of guy that would have done what you have. Soooo as I am not as fortunate. I will just have to follow you in your adventures! Thank you for putting your Chanel together. I am sure it will be a hit! Your ‘van in amazing! Don’t let anyone tell you anything less!
Best wishes. Peter 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for the nice sentiment, Peter. Really appreciate it. Im excited for the adventure.
Retired Army here, Thank you for your service. I'm looking at full retirement inn 3 years, I want to live small, and travel. I want to take my motorcycle to a location and see the sights, but also want a home location, so the Class B seems the best choice. Thank you for your information
Thanks for your service as well. Yeah, that is an awesome plan. That might be my next road adventure - just taking a motorcycle around.
Most of "Vanlife" content on UA-cam is from people building their own vans which is awesome, custom and skilled achievements also because of the prices of those rv companies like Winnebago I guess, but is nice to see the other side, more pricey but more practical, nicely done Sir! 🤙🏼
Yes, I really enjoy those custom van vids as well but Im not very handy. Thanks for watching and commenting, really appreciate it.
You’ve sold me on looking for a used Travato! Thanks & happy trails.
Awesome! Let me know what you decide on ...oh and check out the Travato Owners and Wannabes facebook page...there are some for sale on there occasionally.
Thanks for the info, I’m planning on doing the full time rv life next year and you narrowed down my choices immensely. Enjoy the open road
It's been a really cool life so far....Im loving it. Just hit the road..heading for mountains and cooler weather!
As usual, concise & thorough explanation. I’m 6’4” so need a more legroom offered by the Boldt and hope the Diesel will take me further than gas (total cost to run/own over a longer life), but we’ll see. The Boldt could still use more head & legroom. I look forward to your next videos. Please continue to recommend other channels you like (as the RV/Van community prospers).
Yeah the Boldt is awesome...think it's a bit taller as well...so it'd be a smarter choice for you. The electrical system in that thing is insan!
Thanks for the great videos. Always enjoy. I just got my Travato 59G used 2018 about 2 weeks ago, and it took a month of losing deals and trying to get financing due to Covid issues. Not sure how much different it was when you made this video. You cannot find even used T’s for less than $80K right now in most states. They are a HOT commodity. I absolutely love my 59G and mine is just the standard without Lithium. It’s great to be part of the Travato community 👍🏻
Happy you found one! Thanks for watching and commenting, Christine.
30 And A Wake Up Your videos are really inspiring. And I enjoy the ones where you show us how to do some of the more mundane things like dumping the tanks, setting up your interior etc. Hope you come out to CA when the fires and smoke are not so terrible.
Just discovered your channel. Thanks for the detail on this van. I can't wait to see where you go next.
Thanks you so much Denise. Should be a fun adventure.
Master Chief - Thank you for your service and also for this great video. I didn't realize how many questions I had until you did such a great job of putting forward a logical, informative, and comprehensive look into the subject.
Really appreciate the commenting. Thanks!
I love your RV. See you soon!
Ty :) :) :)
I’ve been following We’re the Russos since they first moved into the Hymer. I was fortunate enough to meet Joe and Kait a few years ago at an RV show and have been friends with them since. Like you, I fell in love with the Hymer and planned to pick one up. When I heard they were shutting down distribution in the US I ended up getting a larger Class C. Spent about 1.5yrs in that and decided to downsize. Just bought the exact same model as you but added a sat dish on the roof. I am heading to Lichtsinn in a couple days to pick it up. Very excited.
Ahh man! That is awesome. I started following Joe and Kait at about the same time as you. Say hi to Nicole in sales for me. She's so awesome! Lichtsinn is a class act.
30 And A Wake Up I purchased my previous RV and now the Travato from Nicole. Lol. I will say hello for sure. I will tell her you convinced me to pull the trigger. 😆
Debbie (Memaw) here😊Glad you found what meets your needs and that’s what is cool about all the types of RVs! We tend to do longer stays and use our RV as a home base to see “regions.” We went smallest Class A size so we can still go to most parks. We will be sharing what we see and learn on our channel too. I’m learning lots from you that we can use in our travels. Be safe and happy travels Kevin. Will see you in the next video👍🏻
Thanks Debbie! I'll continue to watch your channel for some ideas on places to go! :)
Wow you are hitting some serious views, keep on winning and hopefully see you somewhere in the world, this is so great to see!
Thanks bro! Hope you're doing well! I saw you're dipping your toes into the movie biz! Very cool!
Yep! Got loads of stuff in the pipeline, if your ever in Ibiza we’ll get you in as a cameo haha
You were very young to make CMC . Thank you for your service.
Right place, right time! Thanks Michael.
I can’t wait to see your Grand Teton video! Wish I was there. Are you going to be dining out on your travels or packing your own food? Dining out can be expensive in Jackson Hole, go by the grocery store there & they have a deli counter so you can take food on the road! I was surprised at the price of your van but you worked hard for it so enjoy! YOLO!
I can't wait for Grand Teton...always been on my bucket list. Im going to do both...I don't cook well and usually dine out...but Im going to try to learn to cook. Thanks for the tips!!!
All great reasons ✨️ Some of these tips are exactly why I chose my Roadtrek Zion Class B RV as well.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! Clear, concise and informative. Like you, I also began with The Russos and also fell in love with the Hymer Activ. I haven't fallen in love with their new camper though. I do love your rig though! Keep up the good work and most of all, Have Fun!
Thanks...yeah..their new rig is growing on me....slowly but I like having access to the driver seat...so I don't know if I could ever do that. The offroad capability they have is pretty awesome though.
Great content ! When you are already to come to Florida Naples you are welcome to stay at my house or boon-dock , I’m 10 minutes from Morco island , not far from Everglades and others fun areas ! Thank you for all the info ! Have fun and be safe ! One day I get there 😃
Sweet...I'll definitely take you up on that offer Roseline! Im excited to explore Florida.
Hey, same here for Miami, I am 5 blocks from biscayne bay between coral gables and downtown miami. I have a ram promaster city with the wayfarer kit,
Lawyer here too!
Love watching these videos. This would be too difficult for me. I'm getting a tiny house built on my brothers land. It won't be on wheels.
So cool..I love the tiny homes. I might do one of those soon as well! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for your service and be safe out there
Thanks Dave! I will be.
I like how organized this video is. I like your other chatty videos but for informational videos it’s better when one gets straight to the point
For sure Layla....glad you liked it. I liked making it even though I hate talking about money!
Enjoy live that you have done so far I am very happy to you, do everything U want..............I do believe that you deserve this great life.............................
Thank you so much Josanne....you made my day! :)
Class A, Class B, B plus, Class C, Super C, Travel Trailer - tent trailer, compact trailer, small trailer, mid size trailer, toy haulers, 5th wheels, Truck Campers....then you have off road vehicles like Earth Roamer, van builds, skoolies and don't get me started on vintage or boats. There's a flavor for just about every RV Lifestyle.
Haha...agreed. That's what makes it so cool...almost everyone can find their style. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your service!
Thanks Tom.
I love your story and your personality. Thumbs up 👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
OMG I am still a newbie to your channel! I must start from the 1st chapter it seems!
I was not surprised that you followed The Russo's and Story Chasing... they introduced me to the Hymers too which I was actually researching from Europe on how to bring back here! I even drove to the Canadian manufacturer to check them out but then not to long afterwards the company well we all know...🙁 before we could even save up for one!!
Thanks for the honest truth and reasoning behind your purchase of the Winn-Trav!
Now you need to go watch Vancity Vanlife with Chrome and make yourself some fresh cookies like he does in one of his latest videos... LOL
🤔😃Stroganoff is my challenge to you!!! LOL... Fry up your meat of choice (usually beef) add water noodles and seasonings cook then add thickener (cornstarch) and cream ... all in one pot cooking made easy🥘👍🏼 I will do a zoom-cook-along with you if need be!
Induction and a ceramic pan/pot goes a long way
Vie 🇨🇦
Oh I love Vancity Vanlife...Chrome is awesome!!!!! Im a terrible cook though...so it would be more like comedy! But Ill give it a go! Thanks for watching and commenting, Sylvie.
why would anyone thumbs down this? jealousy perhaps is the only reason why I myself would thumbs it down. This is the exact van I would have myself . I am also not crafty or get the builder gene , and I don't have any friends that are equipped to help either. So I would need an already ready to go RV!! BUT I don't have the money. so I will ( for awhile ). Just have to live vicariously through you!
Haha..different boats for different folks I guess! Can't make 100% of the people happy, 100% of the time. Thanks for joining me on this journey..Im going to be doing a van tour soon of a woman that made an awesome van for 5,000!!!
Nice presentation! I have the Aktiv 1.0 and I really like it. I too watch Storychasing and have enjoyed learning all about the RV and accessories. Enjoy your RV, it is a beauty! Safe travels.
Im joining up with Story Chasing soon for about a month...going to boondock with her and her friends. Should be awesome! I'll tell her you said hi, Nancy!
love your videos can't wait to get on the road with you!
Let me know when you do, Suzette! Thanks for following my adventure.
Big big thumbs up Bro! Just subscribed to your channel when I noticed that you own a loaded 59KL. I too have done a ton of research from the super expensive XP 400k vehicles to mid 160k priced to the bottom rung of 50k pre finished new units. Other than the Hymer Vista Venture 4x4, which is totally sublime, I really liked the European 4x4 Ducato with the dual beds. Which Winnebago copied for an American version- Travato, minus the 4x4 package. Still, it is, the Alpha floor plan for us Bachelors & I always could have It tricked out later on with a 4x4 lift kit.
yeah ...im trying to find a way to 4x4 this thing! Thank you for watching and commenting, Justin.
I’m a new sub, wow what a comfortable rig...I love it but sadly don’t have the coin for that, but I’m going to try to buy a hail damaged ambulance, from Calgary to fix up for my new home...my boys are really against it but I’m closing in on 60 and I’ve given a lot to raise them on my own, went hungry more times then not so they could eat...so it’s my time, they are men now and I NEED to do this now before my health gets bad and I can’t. I used to be a seismic medic but can’t work anymore after a drunk driver ran into me, Maybe we will cross paths in the future, good luck to you sir.
That will be a very cool build. I'll be releasing a video this week or next of a 57 year old woman that bought a $5,000 van and invest $1500 in it - it's amazing! You should check that out...it shows this can be done on any budget. Let me know when you hit the road and thanks for watching.
Hey, life is short. Go for it otherwise if something unexpected happens to you tomorrow (like a big hug falls on you and does a lot of harm) and you will be full of regrets on your deathbed. BTW, you did good, sacrificing as a dad is the right thing to do, sadly lots of parents forget about this piece of the deal.
I love it and have been doing lots of research into theses and I think you made a great choice!!!
Thanks sister...and thanks for tuning in!
Thanks for all this MC. The van is awesome and can’t wait to see all the adventures you have!!
Thanks, Mike. I'm super excited for this adventure. I just arrived in Colorado and so far so good!
30 And A Wake Up enjoy it! My friends live out there and love it.
Two things Shipmate...you’re not fortunate, you earned it, and who the hell gives this a thumbs down? 😉
Haha...I got a little lucky along the way & had some help from others! I enjoy a good thumbs down every now and then! What's the saying in the Mess...can't please 100 percent of the people 100 percent of the time...so don't even try.
I think the thumbs down are from not seeing the whole inside. Some of us are here for that :)
Frances, like the video before this one, like a week ago, that showed every inch of the inside? Cool
Tim's right, you earned every dime & benefit. Sam bailed after 10 to complete his Dr of Pharm, which he started in '69. When you hit Tetons & Yellowstone, be sure to visit the north entrance at Mammoth Hot Springs & Fort Yellowstone. Very cool!
Who? Big jerks!
Your voice over on a national geographic video would be amazing and I would be able to listen for hours. I'm just saying....
haha....I need a new gig! Maybe they will reach out. Appreciate the compliment Eric. Thanks for subbing too.
I'm from nyc so its 1.5x speed
Awesome, video packed with information.
Glad you found it helpful and thanks for watching, Lucky.
I love watching your videos! Please keep us updated on your reviews on your trips! Downey, CA.
Will do Carlos! Thanks for watching brother and stay safe out there!
I absolutely love how humble you are and that you’re able to realize how fortunate you are, and the way you expressed it was very genuine. I love all your videos, thumbs up like always!
Awesome comment, Austin. You made my day - there is enough negativity going around...I try to be positive.
If hou have money enough you can be humble! Duh!
@@sjefhendrickx2257 Hud! To you too 🤪
Dude. Whole time we just wanted to see the inside.
I did a tour video the week before...and this vid was a reply to all the questions I got. Thanks for watching and commenting, Alex.
@@30AndAWakeUp Hahaha sorry. Was still a great video. UA-cam recommended this one first.
Alex Hunter me too. 🤣🙌🏽
Thanks man, saved me 11 minutes. Gonna go find the other vid.
The title doesnt say hes gonna talk about the inside or the build. the title clearly says hes going to talk about why he decided...is it that hard to understand?
Thank you for your service. Will always remember.
Thanks, TD.
fast becoming my favourite rv channel, keep it up friendo!
Wow, thanks! Really appreciate that.
You're lucky you didn't purchase the Winnebago Revel, I read an article or saw on UA-cam that our diesel here in the United States has a low sulfur content
But Mexico is not the same and you could do damage to the engine, I want to do the same thing you do and travel I've been wanting to travel for a long time butt stuff just kept getting in the way
I'm also looking at class B RVs or having a custom build, time isn't the problem I'm on disability but I have some debt I have to take care of some other things so I have some time yet before I'll be able to do this
Keep the videos coming it gives me places to look forward to going to good luck with your RV I hope you have lots of fun with it
Thanks John...yeah I dodged a bullet on the Revel....I would have been bummed about that issue if I owned one. And yeah...get rid of that debt and then join me out here on the road. Thanks again for watching!
This is no longer true. AFAIK all Pemex diesel is now ULSD.
Could you pass along the dealership? I can’t seem to find that model , package for that price
Love your video! Well done so informative
I used Nicole at Lichtsinn RV.
Thank you and happy trails.
Thanks you, Shirley.
Love the channel and that you shared your back story, cost, etc. keep the videos coming!
Thank you! Will do!
Price is reasonable!!!!! Comfort in that RV!!!" Live Life To The Fullest" Keep exploring the world & thanks4Sharing
I'm loving it Anne! Thanks for being such a loyal subscriber and friend!
0:32 is ❤️
I know!!!
Great Video...Short, Sweet, and Covered it all quickly, GREAT JOB!!!!!!!
Glad you liked it and thanks for watching!
Full props for admitting that you did not get the builder gene. I'm with you. Know your strengths, know your limits. Also, as a fellow NYer (although I'm now living in VA), I appreciate your honesty with everything -- cost, life story, etc.
Thanks Douglas...figured being transparent is the way to go. Thanks for watching and commenting.
If you’ve got the lolly then spend it. Just over £100,000 pounds. Why not mate, we only get 1 shot at this life. 👍
That's my sentiments exactly!
Love your content - sorry to see you leave van life but totally get it! So here is a question - i am looking at van life - just me and a dog. I almost pulled the trigger on a revel but was a little taken back by the lack of off grid power - given the dog and the fact i am an avid back country skier and fisherman … I want to be sure he is comfortable in the rig (ac/heat) while I am away for up to 6 hours at a time. My main question - if i am traveling to colorado ski resorts - how well do you think the travel would handle getting up Berthaud pass in the height of ski season?
Travel=travato
I took my Travato to all kinds of places I shouldn't have -- it did fine. You should look at a storyteller. Same as the Revel but with the Volta system like the Travato.
Thoroughly enjoyed it! More than I could afford but you are indeed fortunate. Enjoy many happy and safe miles!!
Im really liking it so far. Thanks for watching and commenting, Mike.
Such a cool rig. All the bells and whistles.
Thanks Jonnie!
You know you’re popular when the big jerks start giving you the thumbs down. Haters... everybody’s got em, at least one ☝️
haha...yeah..I guess! Upsets my mom! haha! Thanks for watching Jeffrey!
I love the Class B but the price is a deal breaker, you can get a small no slide Class C for half the price,
For sure...just a preference thing for sure. No right or wrong way to do this lifestyle...only your way! :) Thanks for watching and commenting, Dennis.
30 And A Wake Up totally agree, we have chosen the travel trailer rout but a B or small C could be in our future, until then I will live the B life through your channel, thanks
Nice! That’s what I was thinking... want to be able to go almost anywhere...
Will be watching you...
Thanks Maryann!! :)
Looks exciting!!
Im having a blast! Thanks for watching and commenting, Tim.
Kevin, Thanks for sharing your story and I'm looking forward to your travel adventures in the Travato. Please keep up the good work! Ed, USAF Nam 67'68' Be Safe and Stay Healthy! THANK YOU, for your service!
Thanks for your service Ed....nothing but respect for Vietnam vets...you guys had it rough back then. And thanks for tuning in brother.
Important reason....DODGE dealers can WORK on them, and they are all over the United States if you need service!!
yeah...that is a good benefit
This video is clear and straight to the point! Thank you!
Thanks Halo!
A retired Master Chief nice! I did 6 years in the Navy, was an officer in the nurse corps (got out as an LT, picked up LCDR in the IRR lol) I miss it! I've been a fan of full-time RV'ers on UA-cam for a few years now. Definitely something I'd love to do when I retire. I can't wait to watch your adventures. I especially love the PNW (I was stationed in Bremerton on the NIMITZ for 2 years) and miss that area so much. Perfect climate (although rainy) but so beautiful. Definitely got a sub from me. Safe travels!
I miss it as well! Oh nice...I was in the yards on the Lincoln in Bremerton for a year...and stationed in Everett. Love the PNW...it is my perfect climate as well.
Chief I’m like you in that the Hymer Aktive is my favorite layout or style of class B. Not sure why the Russo’s never bought the one they raved about For that year they used for free?? Makes me hard to believe anything they endorse. I’m enjoying your vlogs very much and look forward your travels this summer.
Thanks Neal! Yeah...I liked seeing them in that Hymer! Thanks for tuning in, Neal.
I wish Toyota made RVs or Sprinters
You should’ve bought gold and silver 😉 😜
Maybe one day!
Toyota used to make them in the 80's called the Toyota Dolphin my. Dad one for years it was old but it was great home away from home
Cool video; thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching!
Nice video! Looking forward to following your adventures! Fellow Travato Nation member here! We have a 2016 G Diesel (2016 was the last year Winnebago built on the Diesel Promaster.). Every time I get behind the wheel, I smile! Love it!!!
Diesel! Sweet! I would have loved to got a diesel! What kind of gas mileage do you get? Im going to check out your channel, Toni.
@@30AndAWakeUp At highway speeds, I average 20. In cities, up to 24mpg! I bought my rig used last July. Put on over 20K miles since then! :)
I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE LOSERS THAT GIVE "THUMBS DOWN" TO THIS EXCEPTIONAL KIND & INFORMATIVE VIDEO..........
Haha....my grandfather always says "You can't please 100 percent of the people 100 percent of the time, so screw-em!" Words to live by! :)
Fortunate? You're not fortunate. You made deliberate choices, lived with discipline, stayed dedicated to your goals and worked hard. Be proud.
Thanks man...appreciate that!
Love this video!!!! Extremely helpful
Keep up the great content👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks friend....really appreciate the comment.
Nice ride. Thank you for the info.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.
I was actually surprised. I thought it would have cost more. That's not bad at all.
Thanks!
If you would have just told everybody the price in the beginning I think every body would haved turn the Chanel . dude those type of rigs are for only retired judges and lawyers because what 121.000 that is freaking insane buy a house and rent it out and with the leftovers I'll buy me a Volkswagen van and do the same. Shein all that mess I rather collect rent money lol
Here's what's funny...I did exactly what you said. I spent 20 years in the military...invested my money....and created lots of passive income and I bought this because I can afford it. So I think we are on the same page! :)
@@30AndAWakeUp no disrespect in any way shape or form brother looks like you earned it and from what I can see is that you have a good spirit and enjoy life to the fullest brother stay close to the Almighty and he will keep blessing you.
@@30AndAWakeUp hey , I know it's different subject but kinda related, can you explain to us some of the passive income ideas or plans ? You know since you succssed
Thx for showing the inside!
No problem...I did a van tour a couple weeks ago as well. Check that out if you haven't yet. And thanks for watching and commenting.
Excellent video Kevin answers all my questions :)

Man, I really miss Australia! Thanks for watching and commenting, Garry. 🚐
Great video, humor, terrific presentation
Thank you kindly!
When you are in Washington State not only do you have to do Rainer, you gotta north to Mt Baker and Diablo Lake, then Rainer, then Mt Hood...the waters all around it are amazing . If you have never been down the Oregon coast, head there after Mt Hood and drive til you get to the Redwoods.then cut back up north to see Crater Lake. Best trip you will ever take in your life. Hit the badlands, mt rushmore, custer and yellowstone on your way over. Im a medical traveler and I have seen almost every national park and these two routes are my favorite in all the land. Thanks for your service!

If you decide to go to Rocky Mountain National Park (and maybe some of the other parks), make sure to get an entry reservation. They implemented this 2 weeks ago, and we only saw the day before we were going to drive up there. They won't let you in if you don't have a reservation (costs $2 to make the reservation), even if you have an annual pass you need it. If you're going to hit up more than 2 or 3 parks, make sure to get the inter-agency annual pass, it's only $80 whereas each entry to the park is $25
Will do...thanks for the tips and thanks for watching again Peter.
