I would move tools to the starboard side storage. If ever needed the access is safer not being on the traffic side along the highway especially with a door that size sticking out. 😊
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet… but if you’re temperature guage starts climbing you probably need to clean the radiator. I’m a CATERPILLAR diesel truck technician (for the past 20 years)and all the diesel pushers with rear mounted radiators have the same problem. The road debris kicked up starts to face plug the radiator the side closest to the engine fan (especially the lower corners). You can spray degreaser into the cooling fins from the rear of the RV, then also pressure wash from the same side to help blow the debris out of the fins towards the engine. Should help keep your engine temperature down. Also check the water pump belt tension and condition. Kind of a pain to manually adjust, and flip it inside out to get it over the harmonic balancer if you need to change it.
You said the engine gets warmer when in the climbing. I recommend that you clean your radiator. Hose or pressure wash the radiator get the dirt out from between the fins. Two reasons one probably never been done second the dust you just sucke up into it from this trip. It might help big time with the temp getting hot.
Wow what a Jewel! Only 53000 miles. Just a baby getting started. Cook outside as much as you can if for no other reason than that's what camping is about and it keeps your rig smelling nice. Don't cook air born grease items like meats and oils in the rig. It will coat everything. I love your documentary style you and Steph do at the places you go. Your call on weather you want to become an RV camping expert or not. My Wife and I are RVers for 48 years and we like just drinking, cooking and visiting outdoors. Yes the magic of RV's and camping. Good luck with that new Rig. It's a dandy.
I have the FD model, 400 cummins 4 slide. If you ever have any questions, hit me up. BTW, the air in the front is for a towing. It allows a tow truck to air up the bags for transport.
That’s good to know some people have been telling me it’s good for toys like tires and their air floater toys nice to know he actually has an actual use
Love that you've moved up to a bit more of GLAMPING . Winnie's have lots of roof problems so beware. Winnie's us SILICON ROOF SEALENTS, do not use Dicore self leveling sealents, they DO NOT STICK TO SILICONE. Also check where the roof connects to the wall, it goes into a J channel. This needs to be checked yearly to be sure its is stuck. check out James's channel on the tubes A-Z rv repair, he has lots of info on replacing these roof and how to prevent having to do so. CHEERS AND SAFE TRAVELS Steve h.
Wow..first Like...That RV is AWESOME, congrats guys!!!....so beautiful and comfortable...seems like a Dark Side on wheels to me....Steph's "for those people who need a fan" at 15:44 was priceless ha ha....but didn't see the golf clubs..where are they....ha ha ....again congrats guys you deserve an RV like that....love you both!! take care...
The 'curb side' or 'street side' is 'RV Speak' for Port and Starboard. Curbside is the side the 'house door' opens up on. The street side is the side that usually has all the hookup connections for electric, potable, grey & black water. Also: If you haven't already... Invest in a shore power pole surge spike protector. Campgrounds are notoriously bad with regulated power and voltage at the shore power poles. The PPF has failed on the front of the body of the RV. A heat gun will be your friend with a plastic spatula/scraper to get the PPF off.
Nice Coach and looks in great condition with a lot of options for a 2004. Watching your video made me miss our 40’ diesel pusher (after 11 years downsized to class B+). Good luck and safe travels with your new Coach.
As a full time long haul trucker, For cleaning bugs off your grill / windshield, I highly recommend mixing MrClean 50/50 with water. give the bugs a good spray, wait a couple short minutes, then they just wipe off. also great to clean and polish any chrome lol But, looks like a great purchase ! I wish you many miles of enjoyment in that rig
That's a pretty slick toy you two have!! Tons of room, nice kitchen and bathroom. Who needs hotels any more???!!! Let's git'er on the road and make some more videos!!!
That's why they call it a land yacht Bobby for the sailor in us all with only 50 thousand miles it's hardly been used for a 04' and it shows well glad Stephanie is enjoying the ride be careful and stay safe my friends God love ya both
Nice rig! My brother has a 2004 Horizon with very similar layout and we have traveled in it many times. You guys like to bring a lot of stuff, and when you bring a lot of stuff you NEED a Class A.
I have to say Steph had me laughing when she said this toilet has a Bum Gun!!!!!!!😁 Soon as she said that my inner Bevis and Butthead came out. Overall a very nice setup and it looks to be in fantastic shape for the age and like Bobby mention 58k miles on it is nothing for that motor. I will enjoy watching the new adventures to come with this RV.
Try pressure washing the radiator. All the dirt roads pack them with debris. I work on pusher school busses and when they get hot we wash the radiator and it usually improves a lot.
Congratulations. Yours looks almost exactly like my 2005 Journey 39k. We just bought that last March and put 10k miles on it already. We LOVE it. Just got back from Freightliner in Gaffney, SC from it's service. The previous owners took ours there every year. Came out with a clean bill of health and we did the 60K service plus I asked for the tranny to be serviced. Anyway, we love ours a lot and are planning a cross country trip next summer. Safe travels!!
Looks like a great floor plan. The clear coat is an issue on many RV's that had this applied. As you probably know, there are some companies that remove it. The tank fills also allow you to fill up from both sides at the same time. Something I wish I had for my 150G tank. Maveriks out west here have truck/RV islands that provide this feature. Having sailed (not very well) before getting an RV, I still call the RV parking places a slip!
Not sure you answered the one question.... "what's the one main thing this 'new to you' RV has that the old one didn't"?.....oh you DID....must have missed it. Love your excitement. LOL!!
Hey Bob great looking Rv. If it is running a little hot on long climbs check switch for fan that cools radiator down cats are known for switch going bad I drove a tractor trailer for 40 years had a 425 cat when you get over fifty thousand miles their the first thing to go also check antifreeze if it has extend life in it change it that is known to mess up water pump and head gaskets good luck with it it sure is Sharp looking Rv
Howdy Bobby and Steph, I know all to well about tires, going back to the mid 80’s, I drove a car back to Amarillo from Anaheim Ca, it had a recalled set of tires, Firestone 721’s, they were about 15 years old, I thank God the muffler fell off first, we were about 30 miles from Needles in the summer, don’t need to tell you just how hot it was, I pulled over to go back and kick the muffler off the road, unbeknownst to me, while it had set for that 10 minutes, all 4 tires swelled up and the car was rolling like it was on a rollercoaster with all 4 tires on a different track, to this day I have know idea why they didn’t blowout, crazy , safe travels God Bless
It's OKAY to say Port and Starboard in a Land Yaht. Besides, most of us are watchin this channel 'cuz we started w/You, Maverick💙 & Goose💙 and your old monohull.
That’ll be a great rig to explore the country while you’re waiting on the Cat. I’ll tell you from experience the extra room is needed when working and living on an RV full time.
Good for you guys! We also bought a 'new for us' gently used diesel pusher. Same basic floor plan. Cat diesel, diesel gen. We have both the heat pump basement air/heat, and 2 roof mount heat/ac units, for Texas summers! Can't wait to see some of your travels.
Not that it should matter, but I am so glad to see that things between Stephanie and you are working. She is delightful (not to mention hot and pretty) and you are......well, you. Hope that things continue to work well and wish the best for you two. The RV is definitively a step up from the other one, I am sure that a capable dude like you will be able to keep up with the maintenance these behemoths require. By the way, I sort of felt cheated because Steph did not do the walk through in a bikini😉
Very nice Rv, so advance, looks so brand new actually its a huge one perfect for family adventure, and maybe you should start now, haha i know you are gonna be a good couple 😍, love, love, love
Wow!! What a great ride. I love that Sailing Doodles was up on the TV for the tour. Is that what Bobby watches while Steph watches Mad Max in the bedroom? You guys are so much fun to watch. Can’t wait to see more episodes in the new ride.
I'm jealous, I've always wanted to do the large RV scene but had congress to deal with, lol. Anyway, we're living in the Philippines now and enjoy it very much. I'll be watching you with envy in the background. Lol, just kidding. I love it and am anxious to watch the new adventures. Be safe always.
Great video love the RV in the UK, we call it a Mobile Home for you that's exactly what it is so having as much comfort and space is great, Stephanie as beautiful as ever very professional, she just gets better and better 😊😊😊😊
Bobby, its not plastic, it's a clear coat that is pealing off because of the sun. You can sand it down and respray the clearcoat and when dry put a thin plastic covering over it or wrap it in plastic covering
Nice, great upgrade. You guys have a lot of stuff. Hey Steph, the TV is on what is called a televator. You will have fun times ahead in it. Happy for you two.

For a 2004, someone took SUPREME care of it. There's hardly any sign of any wear & tear, and it looks like everything works!! 👍👍👍
Bobby, I hope you and Steph work that boat on wheels into some Extraordinary places.
Good job by Steph on the tour, so confident !
Nice touch doing cross-promotion of Sailing Doodles on the big screen!!!

I’ve been learning a lot from James. He’s truly a master at his art.
The RV looks really comfortable and spacious. Looking forward to seeing your new adventures.

Wonderful life and time you are having together as a couple. Will be remembered fondly for years I am sure.
What a nice RV, happy for you guys! Thanks for the great tour, you two!
That is just toooooooo cool! Its amazing that even though it is a 18 yr old unit, it still is current and somewhat ahead of its time.......
Hi Bobby from Malta 🇲🇹 I am so happy for you too i love watching your channel
Nice to see Bobby's ride. The RV is nice as well.
We had an ‘07 40 foot 400 hp Cummins Winnebago tour, before the roof got ripped off by a big windstorm. Now it’s unlivable because there’s mold in it
You couldn’t replaced a new roof that’s horrible. What a loss.
WOW, a rolling Penthouse, best of luck and safe travels to you both. Peace.
Great video and very nice RV and Steph is so awesome what a real sweetheart of a Gal, You 2 make a great team.

Nice Coach and looks in great condition with a lot of options for a 2004. Watching your video made me miss our 40’ diesel pusher (after 11 years downsized to class B+). Good luck and safe travels with your new Coach.
Beautiful upgrade. I hope you'll make your way to the North East when it's warmer someday I'd love to take you out to dinner.

But, looks like a great purchase ! I wish you many miles of enjoyment in that rig
Great idea I’ll try that out
Wow. Now my wife’s all in on this RV. Let’s go she yelling at me. Thanks a bunch, your costing me a bunch. Mike Charleston SC
Beautiful bus Bobby. Looks really comfortable.
Thanks for the tour Bobby and Steph !!…….
congrats on the new rig. May y'all have safe travels and many amazing adventures.
Nice upgrade, Makes for a better ride and all the comforts of home.
I love this RV
You work hard you deserve as good as it gets and this is like new
Great tours both of you
Thanks for sharing ❤
That's a pretty slick toy you two have!! Tons of room, nice kitchen and bathroom. Who needs hotels any more???!!! Let's git'er on the road and make some more videos!!!
That's why they call it a land yacht Bobby for the sailor in us all with only 50 thousand miles it's hardly been used for a 04' and it shows well glad Stephanie is enjoying the ride be careful and stay safe my friends God love ya both
Congrats on the new Rv, you guys needed this. 58 000 Miles on the engine is pretty much new. I love it
I like that, "This is Bobby's side; he has more room and storage here and I use it too."
Nice rig! My brother has a 2004 Horizon with very similar layout and we have traveled in it many times. You guys like to bring a lot of stuff, and when you bring a lot of stuff you NEED a Class A.
Beautiful RV. Steph is perfect, as usual.
I have to say Steph had me laughing when she said this toilet has a Bum Gun!!!!!!!😁 Soon as she said that my inner Bevis and Butthead came out. Overall a very nice setup and it looks to be in fantastic shape for the age and like Bobby mention 58k miles on it is nothing for that motor. I will enjoy watching the new adventures to come with this RV.
Very Nice...my wife and i are on our second Winnebago now...looking forward to watching the videos...i watch this and the sailing channel
Try pressure washing the radiator. All the dirt roads pack them with debris. I work on pusher school busses and when they get hot we wash the radiator and it usually improves a lot.
Awesome Steph and Bobby!!
Congrats on the upgrade. I would say you needed the extra space! safe travels.
Wow! been a fan for many years...never commented! planes, boats and love the RV!
Bobby/Steph...Congrats on the upgrade...quite a step up from the Class-C... best of luck w/ it
wow that's travelling in style great tour simply amazing indeed
I'd love to hear a comparison of living in the RV vs. living on a boat. A lot of things are similar.
Congratulations on the new rig
You go girl, I could watch you all day.
Congratulations. Yours looks almost exactly like my 2005 Journey 39k. We just bought that last March and put 10k miles on it already. We LOVE it.

What a great way to live , a new one would be so expensive but a used one a lot less. Watching while waiting for Sailing Doodles
Great video, thank you for the tour..
Hey Bob great looking Rv. If it is running a little hot on long climbs check switch for fan that cools radiator down cats are known for switch going bad I drove a tractor trailer for 40 years had a 425 cat when you get over fifty thousand miles their the first thing to go also check antifreeze if it has extend life in it change it that is known to mess up water pump and head gaskets good luck with it it sure is Sharp looking Rv
Wow, love the RV and all the space is a dream way to travel...life is great a wonderful RV with a great lady...life is good:)
Awesome video by my camping friend's Bobby and Stephanie.

Nice RV. I look forward to the next adventure!
The interior looks great!
Nice Rig guys👍🏻👍🏻
Steph looking VERY nice in that pink shirt too🎤
That’ll be a great rig to explore the country while you’re waiting on the Cat. I’ll tell you from experience the extra room is needed when working and living on an RV full time.
Nice rig you two! Hope we see you two in a park somewhere so we can swap flying stories Bobby! CHEERS!
Happy for you both but especially for you bobby that you have hit the jackpot with a nice partner .
Congratulations! Beautiful ride, Bobby & Steph!
Bit chilly out ? Nice coach, very nice.
It's huge! Great video!

Those are nice. Built like a tank, I had a 2007 Ellipse 40 FD we bought new and it was great for 13 yrs. Now we have a 2020 Horizon 42 Q
I think you and your dad will have fun in that thing.
Very nice Rv, so advance, looks so brand new actually its a huge one perfect for family adventure, and maybe you should start now, haha i know you are gonna be a good couple 😍, love, love, love
That plastic is a clear wrap...it protects the paint from rocks and bugs...should get it replaced
Congrats!! I love when Bobby uses boat terms. As a former three decades boater it just flows right out. Enjoy it.
I like your R V and looking forward to seeing alot of videos from your travels
This Winnebago is better looking than many apartments people live in.
Nice upgrade.
Wow very nice RV, very happy for you both!..stay safe and have fun!
Wow!! What a great ride. I love that Sailing Doodles was up on the TV for the tour. Is that what Bobby watches while Steph watches Mad Max in the bedroom?

Nice rig in great condition. Some WD for that front door :)
Super nice ,can't go wrong with a Cat . 06 is way better than new and more affordable too. You guys are living the life!
So awesome! I can't wait to see if my husband and I will the chance to do this! I love your channels! Yall are doing great!
Nice that it's a 2004, pre-smog, so you don't have all the problematic after treatment stuff or the DEF.
12.14 A/C IS WORKING GOOD
Excellent video happy to see you both
Great video love the RV in the UK, we call it a Mobile Home for you that's exactly what it is so having as much comfort and space is great, Stephanie as beautiful as ever very professional, she just gets better and better 😊😊😊😊
Bobby, its not plastic, it's a clear coat that is pealing off because of the sun. You can sand it down and respray the clearcoat and when dry put a thin plastic covering over it or wrap it in plastic covering
Very nice would love to do this at some point in our lives.
Congratulations
It’s the same size of your New Boat.
Big Bucks Bobby! Nice Rig!!! You are picking off the clearcoat, not a shield.
You need a few Sails on that to help with Fuel, LOL!
Wow you guys are styling and profiling,very nice RV.
You guys are living the dream! ❤
yea, in amazing shape.
Nice, great upgrade. You guys have a lot of stuff. Hey Steph, the TV is on what is called a televator. You will have fun times ahead in it. Happy for you two.
Pretty cool upgrade guys - enjoy
Nice rig Boobie...Love those hi-beams too.
I see what you did. 👀
