resurface the roof -clean, prime, paint on new rubber roof coating. Prevent the leaks before they start. Get some skid wheels for the back of the trailer to keep from dragging bottom on the dips.
Now we have to wait and wait. I can't wait to see inside. I am so excited. Now you will have more space and Angela's parents got an upgrade on their camper. Win win. Locke.
I being a complete newbie to hitching a camper trailer really appreciated all the time you took to show us . Would like a video on what you looked for in inspecting a used trailer before you bought it . Looking forward to viewing your safety check list on the camper trailer .
Love it and know that it will be clean as a whistle when Angela gets started on it! Love the driving video and the music! The boys must have enjoyed their long ride. I had to laugh but know that it must have been frustrating to get stuck especially late at night. That rock was a big one. Lol I know the four letter words I may have used if it was me. Lol Take care guys, looking forward to the next video!! TFS :)
The drive out was very nice -- great seeing some new places and the country valleys in Virginia were gorgeous! Looking back now, the rock will just be another funny family story, but was rough in the moment! LOL Thanks as always Elaine!
This took me down memory lane! I use to have an old early 60's Ford Fairlane, in the late 70's, that had electrical issues(got it for 25 bucks). I use to periodically take off the steering wheel, rewrap the wire's individually, then together, with electrical tape, put it back together and drive until I saw sparks again. Usually lasted a week or so, depending on how many turns I had to make. Glad those days are gone!😅😅
Sam remember in these kind of situations you can throw block of wood under tires and pull over and it can also be helpful when changing tire on road just pull one axle up on a block of wood and if you find the perfect piece of wood the flat tire be dangling in the air.great job tho and you should invest in wireless backup camera set up you gonna need it soon enough.
check if the trailer axles are still straight and havent moved off there springperch might be adviceable to take two extra trailerwheels along on the trip , you whont be the first to have a blowout or loose a tread along the way , if the trailer has been sitting out in the sun for a while the rubber might not be the best
This is priceless video! Stuff like this is going to happen! Shows how to get it unstuck, but also how to keep your humor alive!!! Thank you for sharing!
OH BOY! I also have a horrible driveway and can see myself, many times, with a shovel, snowplow or tractor, and many straps and chains!! Good job guys!
Enjoy watching your videos and the new experiences in your daily life. Your stories and projects are so interesting! It's always a pleasure to follow your adventures and hear about your future plans on the new Homestead.
Just FYI. Someone may have already explained it, but in case they didn't, what you're referring to as "scissor jacks" on the camper, are only stabilizer jacks. Much like adjustable stabilizer jacks for a vehicle, those on your camper are not for lifting but just stabilizing, so your camper doesn't bounce so much when people are moving around inside or going in and out of the camper. Love the video and we're so happy for ya'll! GOD Bless! ✝️😁👍
Love love love your 4 letter words. Rad! Funn.... You know you were there 😁 I also love how y'all worked together to get it unstuck. Hubby and I just today had an issue with our riding lawn mower that we go that opportunity. It's so much better working together.
congrats on the new camper. You all have faced many problems and have worked thru them like a champ. keep it up and things will be brighter and you will look back on this and laugh.
You guys are so good-natured about "stuff". All I could think was "look!! "Stuff" happens to other people too"! But, just look at that trailer!! I think she looks real nice. So, we get to see the inside next time?
Oh my, the sound of the dumptruck, I'm 63 and we would go a mile up the mountain, a rocky dirt road In western Maine. Brought back wonderful, auditory memories of a great childhood.
Omgosh Guys!! So many questions well just a few. Was there any damage to camper? Will you have the same problem when you do leave to take your camper to TN? Kudos to Angela!! And the feral boys were so well behaved lol.
It’s such a relief to see someone on UA-cam that everything doesn’t go perfectly as planned. I LOVE that y’all are so honest and show everything! Anytime I take on a project something always happens and I’m like “why can’t everything go smoothly just once?” When I saw the huge rock..... I no longer felt alone.....thank you for that 😉
Love how you and your wife work together to solve problems! RARE these days to see this! Praise the Lord for a Real Country Guy & Girl! Love the Video! Thanks for Sharing!
Yeah, this brings back memories. At least your drive is road gravel. I forgot to take the car tow hitch off before driving my motorhome up our steep driveway and furrowed the asphalt road and driveway! Some memories you just don't want to remember! Lol!
The memories of that sound of the dump truck engine! We had to learn how to drive that! We were not allowed to learn in the car till we could shift and drove perfectly. Thought my step Dad so mean! But, my brothers mowed down a few pines before ever being allowed I; the car. Guess he knew those boys.
Love u guys🤗💕. Team work makes the dream work as they say n it was certainly team work getting that bolder out from under the camper. Looking forward to the next installment from your new camper. Love to you all from a wet n windy Scotland 💕🤗
Oh the memories of dragging these around UK for twenty plus years with our job . . Yeah , we lived in them on site . Highway construction .after I left the garage workshops . Could be anywhere in the country for our next contracts , do one , move on to the next one . Like gypsies . Everyone thought we were anyway . . Yep , raised on the real rough side of life . Constantly on the move . . Up to the eyes in hard earned dirt , all hands on , no pen pushing for us fellas . leather hands , weather beaten and real down to earth . Happy days . . See you all in the next one guys , keep going , never give up .
Congratulations on your new RV travel trailer! My husband and I have stories to tell pulling our RV 5th wheel trailer and getting into tight places and roads that just ended on us. Frustrations on the journeys make great memories and stories to tell. Especially our grown child will tell stories of our many trips and be laughing about remember what Dad did with the different RV's we owned. Some of the many little Mishaps while traveling and in RV Parks. Why do you ask would we put ourselves through that driving throughout the United States. Because we could and LOVED it! God's Blessings be with you and your family
I would recommend getting another ball for your sway control on the hitch end. A couple years ago my wife and I were driving through Huston and apparently the lovely road construction was too much for the little ball. Thankfully most RV stores carry those. We bought 2. One to replace the one we broke and one spare for the next time we break one. P.s. Having had things jammed under vehicles before (don't ask) I've found the easiest way to get them out is to ramp the tires up getting more clearance on that side. Scrap lumber works well. Once you've got it up you can pull what ever is stuck and then back off the ramp.
Awesome! Love the music and video of the drive, it was beautiful! The boys must have enjoyed it! Lol I can imagine the four letter words I may have used when it came to getting stuck and unstuck! Lol Happy that you made memories of that! The camper is going to be clean as a whistle when Angela gets started on it. So looking forward to your next video! Take care guys!! 😊
The drive out was very nice -- great seeing some new places and the country valleys in Virginia were gorgeous! Looking back now, the rock will just be another funny family story, but was rough in the moment! LOL Thanks as always Elaine!
Good strong boards are your best friend when getting one side up or one tire off the ground to change the other on a tandem setup such as you have... Glad you didn't do any damage to your rig in that situation... Better times ahead..
Great video guys. Loved every min. of it. Yes!!! Sam, making memories good or bad & down the line you'll look back & say they were all good. Hoping all is well guys, Dirty Jersey out!!
If at all possible get a couple of treated 2x12 or 2x10 to park the tires on keeps them off the ground but the way lumber is some thin 12inx12in concrete pads camper looks great stay safe and healthy my friends
I’m so happy that it worked out in the end. Y’all will definitely remember bring home the camper! 😂 Adults need to take a clue from children, sometimes. Notice how unbothered they are during these situations. They know their parents will take care of the problem, while looking after their well-being. If we always remember that God is doing the same for us, it sure does take a lot of stress and frustration out of these situations. No Sam, that doesn’t mean you get to swing on the rope swing in the background while Angela figures it out. 😂😂😂🤣 Praying for continued blessings as you transition to your dream homestead.

I was sure you were going to have some nice bloopers from that video! Nice camper!
LORDY!!! What a adventure! This will make a great story to tell around the campfire.
oh oh. Stuck between a rock and a hard place!! Phew!! Clear sailing ahead! 👍🏼🙌🏼😍
resurface the roof -clean, prime, paint on new rubber roof coating. Prevent the leaks before they start. Get some skid wheels for the back of the trailer to keep from dragging bottom on the dips.
The sizzor jack made on the camper is not made to lift the camper. It is just to stabilize it once you get it parked
That's what I was going to say, never lift with them.
Yep been there done that 😁🤣 No harm no foul 😎You guys are a great team friend wife is a keeper !!! God Bless !
Now we have to wait and wait. I can't wait to see inside. I am so excited. Now you will have more space and Angela's parents got an upgrade on their camper. Win win. Locke.
You all are so fun to watch. Just good down to earth people. Can’t wait to see the inside! Wish you all the best!
Camper is awesome! Thanks for sharing!♡♡♡♡♡
Lol park the dump truck down by the gate with a for sale sign on it
This was a very entertaining video. Thank you.
Good video ! I bet you're glad that it's not raining !!! That would be a big muddy mess ! Lol 😆!!
Be sure to sanitize your fresh water tank if you plan to drink, wash dishes or shower with water from that tank.
Can't wait to see the inside. Congrats!
Congratulations on getting a camper and getting it unstuck from the boulder! Great job you guys! God bless!

Well, this surprised me some. Like the can do, never give up approach to the rock. Good luck with this camper.

Looking forward to checking out your newest diggs! God bless.
Congratulations! Your camper looks nice and big! I am looking forward to future videos about it!

Frustrations can make great memories for the future... lots to look back on and laugh! Great video, thanks for sharing with us.🤗💗
So true!! We always seem to look at them that way, don't we? :)

Congratulations on your new to you camper. My wife and I love you guys and this journey your on
Hi Sam & Angela,I am so happy for your family.Good things happen to good people & you are both amazing!👏😊👍
check if the trailer axles are still straight and havent moved off there springperch
might be adviceable to take two extra trailerwheels along on the trip , you whont be the first to have a blowout or loose a tread along the way , if the trailer has been sitting out in the sun for a while the rubber might not be the best
Looked good, but I'll double check that spot. Thanks for the pointer.
This is priceless video! Stuff like this is going to happen! Shows how to get it unstuck, but also how to keep your humor alive!!! Thank you for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congrats on finding a camper you liked and in pretty good shape too.
That pretty on outside it be sharp as whistle when Angela gets done with it
Wow! Camper looks nice!, y’all got this!
OH BOY! I also have a horrible driveway and can see myself, many times, with a shovel, snowplow or tractor, and many straps and chains!! Good job guys!
Making memories....love it! Seems we share the same kind of adventures! NOTHING is ever as as easy as you planned!🤣

😊 New word... "levelize". I like it!

Plus It's yours. You don't have to give it back.
Love love love your 4 letter words. Rad! Funn.... You know you were there 😁
I also love how y'all worked together to get it unstuck. Hubby and I just today had an issue with our riding lawn mower that we go that opportunity. It's so much better working together.

Welcome to towing width length and height
I used to drive that same interstate years ago snow plowing from Stateline to Stateline for TDOT.
I would recommend getting another ball for your sway control on the hitch end. A couple years ago my wife and I were driving through Huston and apparently the lovely road construction was too much for the little ball. Thankfully most RV stores carry those. We bought 2.

You guys are great. 3rd video watch and newly subscribed. You guys are vibes. Vibes we like to see. Great campfire people.
Loved the small rock problem.
Nice!!!!! I wanna see it nowwwwww!!!! 😂😂 Can't wait to see the inside!! Sure you will enjoy this with the extra room. So excited for your family 😍😍
Awesome! Love the music and video of the drive, it was beautiful! The boys must have enjoyed it!
Lol I can imagine the four letter words I may have used when it came to getting stuck and unstuck! Lol
Happy that you made memories of that! The camper is going to be clean as a whistle when Angela gets started on it.
