    Actually the doggy bags are a great idea, I've become addicted to use bathroom wipes after I go but knew I didn't just want a giant trash bag full of dirty wipes but using the doggy bags first makes a lot of sense!
  • I know the kind of money you guys have in that truck, rig, and solar.....but, no rent, mortgage, insurance, taxes, utilities.....and you get to travel. What a life. Superb channel. Great info with none of the cutesy little attempts at constant humor that gets so old on so many other RV channels. Just useful info presented in a concise manner. You guys do this right. Great job. 🙂
  • No shade on the doggy poop bags. We use a variation of this method for our kitchen trash so that we can fill up the can completely before it starts to smell. Meat scraps and bones (particularly chicken and fish) are put into a reused zipper bag, that previously held dry items, it’s sealed up and put into the can. Our trash can can be filled fully because the smell of spoiled food is contained. The poop bags serve the same purpose. Great Idea 👍🏽
  • We also LOVE boondocking, and have 2 generators. A 2500 and 4500 both are dual fuel, I DON'T like to transport gasoline so we use ONLY propane. What I do is when I know that I'm going to use the gen I connect the propane 2 or 3 hours before starting it. One pull on the 2500 normally starts it, the 4500 is battery start.
  • When I worked in restaurants some 45 years ago we never ran water to wash dishes. We filled one really hot large bin (or sink) with hot water and one with cold water. You washed and scrubbed in the hot, and dipped dishes in the cold to rinse them and hand dried. We never ran water to wash anything and we were far faster than washing machines of the day.
  • BTW: there's a special shower valve you can buy. When you turn it on, it returns water to fresh tank until you feel it getting hot, then you switch to shower head. At Camping World it's the Aqua View ShowerMiser Unit SMB001, but I'm sure there are other versions.
  • Great tips I could never get my wife to boondock but like you said it's not for everybody just be safe out there for security the world and the people in it are crazy.

    The little shoes on the stairs are great, LOL.
  • Awesome, INFORMATIVE, video! Retired here. Have the "fever to roll"!! Need to get my "dollar ducks" in a row, and do it!! Lol😂 i have lived in the Pacfic Northwest majority ofmy 67 yrs. I did live in Oklahoma for 3 month job. July August September, not being used to the Humidity, i understand your term of "swamp ass". I felt like a shower was needed at least twice a day, if not more. And non "sticking clothing". Very nice RV and Truck. Tip on walking out or riding out your intened route, is superb! Best of travels to you guys. Stay safe, and enjoy this life. Thanks for sharing valuable info for a dreamer!

    I love boondocking! I calculated the payback period to be comfortable off-grid. It’s about 2/3 of a year as compared to paying for overcrowded campgrounds and resorts. I just use a small trashcan with a plastic liner and then replace with a fresh liner every few days instead of flushing, toilet paper. Doggy poo bags are not a bad idea though. I quit using paper because one of the hardest things while Boondocking for me is to get rid of trash. I can do four days worth of dishes with less than 2 quarts worth of water. Pretty conservative!
