Is 2026 shaping up to be the worst year ever for full-time RV living — or is that just fear talking?

After nearly four years on the road, we’re breaking down the real financial pressures RVers are facing heading into 2026: rising campground prices, dynamic pricing, higher insurance rates, diesel costs, grocery inflation, and major maintenance expenses that are getting harder to ignore.

This isn’t doom-and-gloom clickbait. It’s an honest, data-driven look at what’s actually changing — and who is most likely to struggle if nothing changes in their budget or travel style.

We also talk about:
• Why campground pricing feels out of control
• Insurance and fuel costs no one warned us about
• Why maintenance is becoming a budget breaker
• Who full-time RVing may no longer work for
• And why, for some people, 2026 could actually be a great year — if you’re willing to adapt

If you’re already full-time, planning to hit the road, or wondering whether staying in an RV still makes financial sense… this episode is for you.

No fluff. No hype. Just the real numbers and hard conversations RVers need to be having right now.

After three and a half years of living full time in our RV, we’re sharing the honest truth about what it really takes to stay sane when you’re with your spouse 24/7 in 300 square feet.

We open up about the rocky first six months, the systems and routines we’ve developed to keep from driving each other crazy, and the surprising ways this lifestyle has strengthened our relationship. If you’re considering full time RV life with your partner, already living it, or just curious how we haven’t driven each other insane yet, this one’s for you.

We also chat about our upcoming adventure at Xscapers Bash ’26 in Lake Havasu, Arizona — a desert rally celebrating 100 years of Route 66 with themed nights, live music, boondocking under the stars, and lots of good vibes. Let us know if you’re coming; we’d love to meet up!

After three and a half years of full-time RV living, Barry and Darlene tackle the most controversial topics dividing the RV community! In this no-holds-barred episode, they dive into the heated debates that have RVers taking strong sides on campground etiquette and boondocking behavior.

What We Cover:

• Lights Out or Lights On? The great debate about leaving RV porch and awning lights on all night—security concern or inconsiderate neighbor behavior?
• The Dog Dilemma From barking dogs left alone for hours to off-leash encounters that turn dangerous, we share our honest (and sometimes heated) opinions on pet etiquette. Plus, Darlene recounts a terrifying dog attack that still gives her PTSD.
• Generator Wars When is it okay to run your generator at a boondocking spot? We discuss the clash between those without solar and those seeking peace and quiet in nature.

The Bottom Line: Most RV conflicts could be solved with one thing—communication. We explore why confrontation has become so difficult in our society and offer practical tips for having those awkward neighbor conversations that actually work.

Whether you're a seasoned full-timer or planning your first RV adventure, these are the unwritten rules everyone needs to understand. We're not holding back our opinions, and we want to hear yours too!

After 3+ years of balancing a demanding remote corporate job with our growing RV YouTube channel, Barry finally made the leap and quit his stable 9-5! In this honest podcast, we're sharing the real story behind his decision to walk away from financial security and what this means for our future. From working 5 AM to accommodate East Coast hours while traveling the country, to the challenges of remote work that nobody talks about, we're pulling back the curtain on what it REALLY takes to make this kind of life-changing decision. We're also revealing some exciting plans we have in store and why this changes everything for our channel moving forward.

Thinking about working remotely while living full-time in an RV? HOLD UP! In this brutally honest podcast, we're pulling back the curtain on what it REALLY takes to balance a traditional 9-5 job with life on the road.

After 3 years of working full-time while RVing across America, we're sharing the unfiltered truth about everything: our bulletproof internet setup that keeps us employed, the employer conversations that could make or break your remote work dreams, and why we refuse to move during the week.

We'll also reveal our complete office setup, how we handle different time zones, and why that Instagram fantasy of working lakeside with your laptop is complete BS.
