It’s memorial day weekend, and there are a lot of travelers on the road. How many? AAA gives us the details. Pairing a tow vehicle with am RV trailer sounds like a simple equation, but it’s a lot more complicated we realized. We’ve got some tips and an update on our search for a new truck and RV. And with the unofficial start of summer here, we have the tips you need to know to beat the heat when you’re out boondocking. 

94. The Need for Speed in Pensacola

We’ve been on the road for over two years now in our converted school bus. We’ve been border to border and coast to coast twice now: Is it time for us to make some big changes? You’ve heard all the stories about shady salespeople and poor service, but is the fear of camping world really what it seems? Major news on the mobile internet front, and it’s not good. And one of our favorite places on earth, where you can bask in the white sandy beaches and roar with the top gun jets, all on this episode of the RV Miles podcast.

93. RV Trader's Paige Bouma

Thor Industries and KOA want to urge RVers to clean up America’s public lands—will you pitch in?

90. New RV Owner Surprises & Responsible Business with MPOWERD Lights

Owning an RV is a big investment, so everyone wants to know as much as they can about the lifestyle before making the big purchase. On this episode of the podcast, we asked RV owners to tell us what surprised them after they purchased their first RV. Also, more and more businesses are facing the scrutiny of consumers who want to know their hard earned money is going to a company who will use it responsibly. Not surprisingly, the outdoor industry is leading the charge. We talk to the leadership team of portable solar light manufacturer MPOWERD, who know why giving back is good business. The recently shuttered Roadtrek has a buyer - will they honor those famous 6-year warranties? And the 150mph worlds-fastest Tesla electric motorhome - is this something we really need? All that and more on this week's episode of RV Miles!
