And should setting up your campsite really take longer than 30 minutes? PJ and Lindsay debate RV resorts, oversized campers, solar upgrades, rainy camping trips, camping with kids, boondocking, hookups and more. These opinions may be controversial, but they could also help you simplify your setup and enjoy camping a little more.

Our old friend Clint is back, and a lot has changed. He’s traded the RV world for life out on a Texas ranch, raising cattle, fixing fences, chasing kids, and figuring out what it really means to slow down and build something that lasts.

We talk about everything from ranch life and community to overlanding, new RV brands, and what’s been happening back at the shop. Mostly though, it’s just us catching up like no time has passed.
