Did the now seemingly traditional “Bank Holiday airport run” in the #Roadtek today.

As much as I love the #e_Niro and dislike spending £100 on fuel it made the whole escapade much nicer as we didn’t have to get 4 people and 2 dogs and luggage in the car and we didn’t need to use the service area toilets so we could stop anywhere we wanted for a comfort break and #Dog picnic.

Today it was on the Pennine Way footpath next to the Windy Hill transmitter at the top of the M62.

@blingoali stop it, that’s like XXX porn for me at the moment 🤣

Outside of the dealership I’ve still only seen one in the wild. (I haven’t been out much recently for obvious reasons).

I’ve been driving the #Roadtek today and even at 11 mpg it’s so nice to see the countryside from up high. You miss so much of the view in a car.

@blingoali oh poor car.
And poorly setup parking sensors are far worse than not having them. I’m a get out and look kinda guy.

I should have taken a photo because when I was revisiting the #Roadtek #CamperVan in to new house driveway avoiding the skip I stopped, got out to check, and was 1cm away from clipping the skip with the passenger side front wing/indicator 😬

My wife told me it was too big to fit and I said there was enough room. We were both right. 😆

@Basmitharts he’s not a car but Bam the #Roadtek

13 years … He’s just so useful, reliable, rugged and expensive to replace

@vwdasher that’s sorta why my #Roadtek has K17MPY on it. We had a Germy Knaus motorhome so thought a cheap £100 KAMPY plate would be memorable enough for me to remember. It was the worst vehicle I’ve owned to drive and it didn’t last a year with us. 🤷‍♂️😜

@autonerdery

I seriously hope these sell well and secondhand ones become available in a couple of years at reasonable prices so I can make a nice dayvan or camper to replace the #Roadtek

@Basmitharts 😍 Bam’s big bottomed #Roadtek brother 👍

Weather looks nice over the next few days so we thought she’d head down to visit D’s mum who’s poorly sick…

Feckin’ mice have moved into the #Roadtek 🐁🐭🤬

Time to clean, renew and declutter

At least they don’t seem to have eaten anything that can’t easily be replaced this time (there was no food in there they just chewed up my expensive lightweight waterproof) and the weather IS nice too 🤷‍♂️🤣

@dan
The #Roadtek has a TV aerial array within the fibreglass roof with an amp to boost it. That’s my only thought

@vwdasher I will enquire But now I know how it’s less of a problem

It’s not going to Europe as we have the #Roadtek for that, so I can’t see me ever needing to change it again anyway
