-It’s like less than an hour and our bellies are full. And our bladders are empty.
So we are ready to get somewhere and disconnect without yelling at each other.
Let’s go. -All right, salty.
(music) (wind blowing)
We’re in the middle of an insane windstorm right now.
-When you’re driving, there’s just like chargers and more chargers and more chargers.
-Every year, they come out with more technology to make it more confusing.
It’s like you’re gearing up for a space shuttle mission like roger that, Captain.
Three, two, one.
All I’m saying is like we’re right there with you.
(truck horn)
-We are just a bunch of goofballs that decided to sell our home, live full-time in an RV.
And we want to show you guys that if we could do it, you can do it too.
(music)
The Cracker Barrel. -The Cracker Barrel.
-Oh... -Oh we heard it. Got you.
-Hopefully we fit because somebody said in the reviews that they didn't really fit.
Our door won't shut with these steps on the grass.
It's kind of a okay situation for them too because I'm sure they don't want these steps on the grass.
You, you're hungry. I could tell.
-Yeah, I'm starving. I haven't eaten all day.
-Carl is hungry.
Notice there's no talk of hashtags when he's hungry or anything.
(music)
-This is what it looks like on the inside? -Yeah.
Are you guys warm enough? Do you want your robe?
-Are you warm enough, buddy?
He's good. -What about you?
You, you're wearing a t-shirt but you wanna run the furnace?
-Well, let's just turn the furnace off now. I'm toasty.
Don't give me that sauce.
(music)
-Good morning.
And welcome to another episode of Dumping Tanks with the Hanks.
And if it’s your first time joining our channel...
I’m Ney Ney, that’s Carl, also known as Renee and Kyle.
If you’re not sure what you’re watching or what this is about.
We are just a bunch of goofballs that decided to...
sell our home, live full-time in an RV, travel the country.
And we wanna show you guys that if we could do it, you can do it too.
Right here is something that I like to call a hidden gem when you’re out in the road.
This is considered a county or city park and there are a lot of these across the country.
We find places like this through our Allstays Pro program.
These are nice. They’re always in such like a really quiet, clean part of town.
Never had any issues. It’s a first come first serve and you could stay for maybe like...
three to five nights. They usually have water, electric, a dump station on site.
We want to show you guys something that we got.
And we’re going to set it up and you guys are going to be so excited and you’re going to be like...
it’s about time.
(music)
Ahh!
-What do you got there? -TPMS. -Oh my gosh.
-You know, this is important to have.
-And why is it important to have? Thank you guys for asking. Very good question.
It’s because all of you guys in the comments have been saying, well...
you can’t just be driving around everywhere on the road
and expecting your tire pressures are always going to remain constant.
And this is where this bad boy comes in clutch.
-Thank you to Alberto and Tammy from Utah. They sent us this as a gift.
-They are amazing. -Yeah.
-I don’t know if he sent this as a gift or you guys just felt sorry for us.
-Yeah, maybe. You guys are just like… -He was like...
I can’t take it anymore. They need one of these.
-We are not giving you guys a shout out here to say
hey everyone else, you need to be buying us stuff.
No no no no. We just want to bring light that there are amazing people out there
that do such great things out of the kindness of their heart and so
shout out to you guys. We love you.
And we love everyone out there.
Listen, this world is not as scary as everyone else makes it out to be.
There are awesome people in this world so here’s to you Alberto and Tammy.
We’re going to go throw these bad boys on right now.
Ooh. Whoa. That looks awesome. -Oh you put it like that.
-I mean you look like you’re on… a woman on a mission here so… -I’ll just set it up.
Do you guys feel like it’s the never ending struggle of wires
when you’re driving there’s just like chargers and more chargers and more chargers.
Look this is like NASA.
-That’s what I’m saying. -That’s what I’m saying. -All right.
We got you. We hear ya. Loud and clear.
Every year they come out with more technology, to make it more confusing.
It’s like you’re gearing up for a space shuttle mission like roger that, Captain.
Three, two, one.
All I’m saying is like we’re right there with you.
That’s where you’re going to put it? -I think it’s great right there. What do you think?
-Is this kind of the way your guys’ relationship goes like just one of you just kind of
makes a decision and it’s like, yeah, we’re going with it and the other is like…
I guess we’re going with it.
-I don’t need that thing to be in my face. Off to the side’s good.
You got the phone right here. -Like you’re doing all the driving anyways.
-Honey, I am. -Yeah, I guess you are.
These tires, the all-terrain BF Goodrich, they are holding up amazingly well.
Fantastic tires. And we learned something new. You’re not going to believe this.
We were watching Jurassic Park.
Lo and behold, you know the cool little Jurassic Park cars
that they pull up in the first one and they’re like, taking you to the tyrannosaurus rex.
They actually are running BF Goodrich, all terrains on there as well.
(music)
Currently on I-80 right now. Just want to stop and say hey to you guys
because I’m saying hey to you guys in the comments right now.
You guys are incredible and saying so many amazing things to us.
We just can’t thank you guys enough for all your support, your love, your encouragement.
Us going through this whole incident recently with the tree and having the RV back.
I’m talking to my favorite peoples and that is you guys.
(music)
(wind blowing)
We’re in the middle of an insane windstorm right now.
It’s literally like 3 o’clock in the morning, 2:49 to be exact.
We are literally dry camping or boondocking in a Tractor Supply parking lot.
(wind blowing)
The whole RV is just rocking all night long constantly.
It’s calling for like 30 to 40 mile an hour wind gust right now.
(wind blowing)
I’m really hoping this wind stops soon.
Because every time I’m just about to fall asleep it feels like the campers going to blow over.
No place like home, right? Everyone’s saying click your heels three times.
No place like home.
We’re home.
(music)
-I wanted to tell you guys about this app that a transporter told us about last night.
It’s windy, I’m going to go in the truck to talk to you.
Good morning.
I mean it’s not really that cold but the wind is brutal.
Woo. Hope my hair is okay for you guys.
Way to go Carl.
I wanted to share with you guys because this transporter named Michael...
ever since he mentioned it I added it to my most
used apps while on the road. It’s called Windy.
It basically will give you indication of where there’s high winds
and where there’s like wind gusts happening.
Not a long drive day. Yesterday we went like 650 miles, which is...
way more than we ever plan to go but today we’re just going like 300 miles at the most.
-It is windy out there. -I was telling about the app, Windy.
-Oh snap, well that actually is so fitting.
-You ready to hit the road? -Let’s do this, I am so ready.
-I’ll take a high five. -Okay, cool. I love that. Yes.
(music)
We’ve been here before and this is like one of my favorite places on I-80.
Can you hear me in there okay? It’s only windy on top of the RV.
-My hair is all crazy but it’s just for you guys, just so you get the full effect of how breezy it is out here.
-We’re so glad you guys are here. We love you guys.
-We were at this rest stop four and a half years ago
when we were on our way to our first travel assignment.
We had our 27 foot Grand Design Imagine Travel Trailer and we were like...
oh my god, this is so cool. And guess what?
Four and a half years later we’re still saying, wow this is so cool.
-This is awesome. I love it out here and we have come full circle, literally full circle.
-We’ve done a couple circles. -Couple circles. -Yeah. -We’re circling back and we’re here again.
-Write this one down if you guys are driving across country and you’re going to be on...
Interstate 80 east or west because it doesn’t matter, I think you can get to it from either side.
-It’s so awesome. The red rock walls are right behind us.
We’re sitting up here, enjoying the views, and grabbing some lunch.
We packed some sammies, we’re getting ready to hit the road again.
Get out here. We believe in you, we’re rooting for you.
-I also have a trick for you. Maybe you’re…
you’re in our situation where you need to get
the slide out to access your fridge and like make lunch and stuff.
Park in the very first site or the very last site.
So what we like to do is go all the way to the end.
Which is risky because there might not be a spot and then you’re kind of like stuck.
-You gotta risk it to get the biscuit. Was that a Thanks Hanks tip, by the way?
-That was a Thanks Hanks tip.
You know what’s great though? -What?
-Is that we only have like 20 minutes to drive after this.
It’s like less than an hour and our bellies are full and our bladders are empty.
So we are ready to get somewhere and disconnect without yelling at each other.
Let’s go. -Alright salty.
-Give me my food. Listen Carl, I’m getting out of here.
-All right later. I’ll just sit up here.
Don’t fall.
I’m sitting up here for the drive. -No, you’re gonna come down. It’s time to go.
-Fine. I don’t want to go.
(music)
So we finally pulled over just for a second, just to grab some lunch.
It’s pretty incredible to be home. I mean this is… it’s just weird to hit such a long journey.
All the states you see and then you kind of come home and it’s just like wow.
What a beautiful area this is. I mean it’s just amazing out here.
The fresh air, the trees, just a whole new appreciation
once you get out here on the road and you start seeing things.
You realize sometimes you take things for granted and that’s totally normal as a human.
It’s just in our nature to take things for granted and just not sit back and appreciate.
So it’s great being home.
If you didn’t know, Lassen Park is actually part of the Ring of Fire, Mount Shasta, Mount Lassen.
It actually exploded back in the 1800s and it blew...
chunks of volcanic rock like 60 to 100 miles away. It was insane.
Pretty cool. A lot of history around this area and uh...
it’s just good to be home. Ney Ney just made some lunch.
-It’s an hour until we reach our destination so you know what we did?
Let me let the truck pass first.
-Good day. -Good day, sir.
It was an hour before our destination so you know what we had to do?
-What? -Even though we were both like maybe we should just keep going.
-Tell us because we are just dying to know.
-We pulled over to empty our bladders and grab some food.
-In case you guys didn’t know, it’s not like a super trendy thing
but we just been trying to take it a little bit more healthy with life
and we started doing an intermittent fasting thing which basically, I know its…
but we just don’t eat for 16 hours straight and then we eat for like 8 hours.
So you know, it’s just kind of nice. It gives us a little more energy.
We drink some black coffee to wake us up in the mornings.
-When we eat, we get sluggish. So, we just figure like...
let’s keep that energy going all day and then we’ll eat later.
-And then by three o’clock, I’m just ready to...
-No, you’re not. (laughing)
-Oh, she’s getting her steps in for the day too. Wow, I love that.
-Ready? -Wow. That was amazing. Where can I buy your product?
-Um Ney Ney dot com. (laughing)
-Let’s hit the road. You guys ready?
