398. BIG Nat'l Park Entry Changes, ALLIANCE to Build Motorhomes With Co-Founder Coley Brady

from RV Miles Podcast · host RV Miles Network

In episode 398 of the RV Miles podcast, we cover Alliance RV’s acquisition of Midwest Automotive Designs, marking Alliance’s first move into motorized RVs with Sprinter-based Class B luxury vans. Jason interviews Alliance co-founder Coley Brady about why the deal happened and the possibility of an Alliance-branded Class B that could come as soon as this fall. We discuss National Park Service timed entry reservation changes, including Yosemite, Arches, and Glacier not using timed entry this summer, along with Glacier’s alternative measures like parking limits at Logan Pass, shuttle-only access for certain hikes, and reservable shuttle slots. Jason’s black tank is the short-lived reopening of the Apostle Islands ice caves (open for one day before conditions changed), and his fresh tank is Axiom RV increasing fifth-wheel ground clearance from six to ten inches while raising questions about the engineering tradeoffs. Abby’s black tank focuses on the changing state of podcasting, with exclusivity deals and paywalls involving major platforms; her fresh tank is enjoying the Winter Olympics. *Support independent RV journalism and unlock great perks by becoming a Mile Marker 👉 https://rvmiles.com/milemarkers *Get your FREE weekly Road Signs Newsletter at https://rvmiles.com/mailinglist/ Support our Sponsors: *Check out all Blue Ox has to offer at https://BlueOx.com *Find all the RV parts and gear you need at etrailer: https://www.etrailer.com/vehicle-finder.aspx?etam=p0001 *Find Liquified at https://liquifiedrv.com/ Track SSTK_MUSIC_ID 437726– Monetization ID MONETIZATION_ID AMXDXB4BX5FLHUYE 00:00 Intro 02:35 National Parks Timed-Entry Changes 14:42 Sponsor Break: Blue Ox + etrailer.com 15:56 Coley Brady on Alliance’s Move Into Class B Vans 25:04 Black Tank: Apostle Islands Ice Caves 26:40 Fresh Tank: Axiom RV Finally Raises Ground Clearance 29:43 Black Tank: How Big Media Is Reshaping Podcasting 42:02 Fresh Tank: Winter Olympics 42:53 Final Sign-Off
