48 hours to Fix Our RV Before the Storm | Recalculating Route #2

We had 48 hours to fix everything on our RV before an ice storm hit—and of course, Trinity (our RV) decided to throw her biggest tantrum yet. From busted parts to last-minute repairs, we pushed through a marathon of work, coffee, and maybe a few choice words to get her road-ready. This is Episode 2 of Recalculating Route, our new travel series documenting the highs, lows, and laugh-so-you-don’t-cry moments of RV life.

Traveling full-time in an RV isn’t all sunsets and campfires—it’s breakdowns, busted knuckles, and storms that don’t wait for your schedule. In this video, you’ll see how we scrambled against the clock to beat the weather and keep our adventure on track. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to live life on wheels, this is the behind-the-scenes reality.

Follow along as we navigate 10,000 miles of misadventures from Key West to Alaska. Subscribe for more RV fails, road trip laughs, and real life on the road.
