It's been a while since I got my ez-pass but I think its $25 but then they give you that much credit. It's available at most convenience stores. You need to setup an account and likely a way for them to auto charge when it gets below some limit. It might be $0 or something like $5. You stick it...

Definitely lose range, not as much as towing I would guess. It doesn't get that cold here, maybe -15 but that isn't all the time. Not like you have in Wisconsin. The gas cars I've had definitely lost mileage in the winter because of the gas blend and time idling if you had a car starter. But...

I've had a winter with the Model Y and central New York weather similar to Wisconsin (2 years in a row of over 10 feet of snow). Before leaving you can turn on the climate control with the app on the phone. Even the coldest days its at the temperature you set it to in 10-15 minutes. As...

Everyone should get what works for them. I thought the Model Y was cool so I wanted one. Happened to me once before - A Camp-Inn 550 named Haley. :)

Last May-June we went on a 5700 mile trip with the Model Y and my 550. I'd say range loss was about 40% which is what I expected when I looked into it before buying the car. So in reality that was about 125-140 miles between stops. When you stop for gas on a trip you always fill up, while in an...

My library at home is over 30TB so I would bring some video on a 4TB drive. Give me something to watch. I have my MacBook Air with me just because of astrophotography so it doubles as my "TV" - don't need much screen in a 550! So access to the whole library is worth the money for starlink for...

Nice! Trying to think where I had trouble - the Adirondacks are usually pretty tree covered. I think in at a KOA in Missouri I couldn't get a signal. On our big trip last May it was the only spot over the 25 days.

I do have the standard that I bought two years ago for camping and traveling. A few times trees have vexed me but I'd say 90% of the time I get enough signal for video to watch at bedtime. I no longer bring a ton of video to watch locally (movies, TV files) and just stream video from my home...

Good info on a YouTube channel called DISHYtech. In the past that channel has tested both the standard dish and the mini in motion with his Model Y. Using suction cups since the Model Y has a glass roof. Suctioned inside the car. The mini a bit easier to power than the standard, I think because...

I just got an EV and haven't towed yet. I'm expecting both things to happen, less range and yes the CI won't be charged while driving. I think estimates are a range loss in the neighborhood of 40%. I'll be taking a long trip in May and will document the results. I'll try to post results here...

Hi, I was thinking of doing just this, keeping the fridge in the Jeep while driving. I looked in the store but do not see the "galley tote accessory" that you speak of, thinking that something should be there while traveling if the fridge is not. Also going to get the water heater. I have...

Phineas the English Cream Golden. Six months old and recently started liking my socks.

I bought a new one of these a few months back and they now come with a cover for the lock. Probably saw Cosmos video. :)

Brian from DIY Outdoor Life has a few videos on Texas Bushwhacker camper tours. If I remember right he has gone there the last couple of years so it's probably an organized get together.

Great video! Great job Sweeney and Drew. That one is now in my Favorites.

I bought the Bouge based upon a positive review by Hobotech YouTube channel. My old fridge would not fit in my new 550 hence why I needed a new one. I don't remember my old fridge having this problem, but there are differences - I always kept it in the back of the Jeep so it was not so enclosed...

Thanks for the good idea. I ordered a battery operated one. I'll do some testing and report back.

My recent trip I had issues with my version of that model. I had it set to 41 degrees yet things at the bottom froze. The difference is I also have the BougeRV insulation cover. It has vents in the appropriate locations. Do you think it's why I had issues? The cover restricting air flow too...

Looks like the size limit is closer to 5KB. Mine here is 100 x 100 and is 4KB. Edit: redid this to 125 x 125 and is 11KB.

Don't know if this is the problem but that image is 1050 x 787.
