What does a retired NFL pro do to clear his head and find direction and peace? Well, if the NFL pro you’re talking about is Joe Hawley, the answer is to grab your dog, get a van, and hit the road! The RV Small Talk Podcast team had the chance to meet Joe when he came by Princess Craft RV to pick us his new Arctic Fox truck camper. We got his story, heard his “now” and wonder about the amazing future ahead of him. Join us!
After the events in Texas a couple of weeks ago, we really needed to review what we have on hand should a disaster come our way. Most of us raided our camping and RV supplies to keep us warm, fed, hydrated, and healthy. We learned a thing or two, but we also have a better idea of where our packing is lacking. Join the RV Small Talk team and Kate Dunbar, the Campground Gourmet, as we discuss what saved us and what we really need to do better.
Well… PJ, Lindsay, and Clint all survived the generational freeze Texas just endured, and they have some perspective on the experience. Also, water was a major concern across the state and the question of how to get safe potable water needed to be discussed.
There are so many things that rob us of fuel efficiency when we take to the road. All the little things add up, but just knowing helps us all tweak our systems for those extra miles and long-hauls! Also, PJ and Lindsay took on their own camping adventure at Inks Lake and Longhorn Caverns last week. They recount some of the adventures. Join us!
Now that Clint has gotten over his bout with COVID-19, we can get down to talking about finding your group, your tribe, your community within the larger camping scene. You’ll find shared interests, support, learning, and so many other benefits when you find the right RV group for you! So let’s talk about making friends, Clint’s return… and the new truck he arrived in!
The time has come for Clint to get an appropriate tow vehicle. His current truck is… kinda weeny. So, PJ and Lindsay are going to drill down to find out what he’s really looking for. Also, we discuss travel snacks of both yesterday and today! What snacks are you rockin’ when you’re out and about?
The RV sales boom of 2020 sounds like it would be outstanding news for everybody who’s involved with the RV industry, but no, that really isn’t the case. Dealerships may have been going gangbusters moving inventory, but so many related jobs all across the RV landscape have been hit hard. In this episode, we learn about who this historic RV sales boom HAS NOT been helping. 2020… it’s a double-edged sword for everybody.
The very recognizable Fiberglass-Shell trailers have a real fan-base in the trailer community. So, why did Airstream decide to pull the plug on their fiberglass Nest just a short time ago? The RV Small Talk team discusses what makes fiberglass trailers like the Casita, Oliver, and Big Foot enticing to so many people… and then they muse over the reasons Airstream decided not to continue in the fiberglass game, at this time.
What motivates someone to make the change from one RV to another? What features, design, etc. would make someone research and go through the trouble?
