You made some absolutely fantastic modification and upgrades. and we totally love the hook that held the dog leash. It was so cute. Great share. Lynn and Danny
Again, great tips! Awesome video! Very useful mods! After RVing for about seven years, we decided to go with an older nine year-old trailer we love. It's paid for so we just decided to do upgrades rather than go out and spend the money on a newer or new trailer. Have done several of these upgrades, so it's nice to know we're on the right track. We have the older small, loud, single direction bathroom fan and would like to upgrade to one of the larger, quieter, reversible fans. We'd like to see a vid on how to do that upgrade. It seems like that should be pretty easy. Keep 'em coming Ross!
thats awesome, send us some pictures of your modifcation process! i dont have any plans to do the fan anytime soon, but let me see what i can find as far as videos on how to do this properly. ill see if any one in my content creator group as done this. give me a couple days.
Lots of great customization/upgrade ideas for an RV. I'll be keeping all of this in mind when completing my current project. I'm a new friend to your channel.

What is the little fireplace you use? Super cool and great addition to a camper without the fireplaces. Thank you for all your tips and tricks really helpful for a new camper!
Thank you for posting these great videos I really enjoy getting educated on RVs by watching these. Was the copper backsplash around your sink and stove Factory from the trailer or did you put that in and if you did could you provide a link that looks awesome!
I’m wondering the same thing 2y later ha! We desperately need one but I’m not quite sure how to achieve. Loving all the upgrades. We have the same trailer and plan to do the extra shoe storage this week.
Todd, that was purchased at a now defunct home furniture store. Just measure your area and buy from a home furniture store. furniture is furniture, and youll pay much less than "RV branded" furniture.
Loved the mods, and would like to do some however, I'm not finding the links to the products. Specifically, the stainless-steel kitchen roller bins. Thanks, Bruce S.
Hey Paul, thanks for watching. I did mount it with screws. If you watch this video that I’m linking below you’ll see the two screws holding it in underneath the countertop. ruclips.net/video/BVlRRD4M1u8/видео.html
Hey ! Rewatching your content, (❤️ by the way ). Is that a dog pillow on your bed & does your dog sleep with you too @ night ? Us too ! 😂 See ya Ross !
There is a little space, but not much is needed. I would fully recline first, then position it with it reclined so you know how much space you'll need.
Thanks for the ideas. I got one question. I own a GD Images 22MLE, and on the side-out is the soda and refrigerator. I would like to hang a clock there, got I am afraid of the screws, not large screws, damaging the refrigerator. When I tap the wall, it seem that the refrigerator is right there. Do you think it would be safe to hang a hook, or clock, or screw small screws into that wall?
I have a question for you about your bathroom sliding door latch. I loved that mod and ordered the latch, but now I cannot seem to figure out how the door will be able to slide open all the way with the part attached to the door. When the door is all the way opento secure for travel. I have a locking mechanism already installed that prevents the door from moving while in transit. It appears that I can only have one of these mods, not both. What are your thoughts? Thanks for your help and I love your videos!
usually outside at the picnic table. when inside we'll just eat on the couch using trays... we're not fancy people lol. the fireplace i have has been discontinued, but this one is similar: amzn.to/3FNM06E
try cleaning with alcohol. i didnt have any problems after doing that. if that doesnt work try heating the tape up with a heat gun or hair dryer for a couple seconds to get it momentarily stickier.
I’ve since upgraded to an unlimited data plan on my cell phone so I rarely use the extender. It always worked fine, the problem was campground wifi was usually awful.
i honestly dont remember, i just bought a mattress at a mattress store since it was a residential size. i would just recommend finding the right size first, then something that is comfortable for you. hope this helps.
@@angel2bme I bought that from Lowe’s. I’ll try to find an online link, but something that large might be cheaper if you can get it at Lowe’s and not have to pay shipping. Hang tight Angie.
Hang tight Jake, its a Toshiba BDX series, they are no longer produced. i dont know why, they are great players, smart too. let me see if i can find you something similar that i know will work for you.

No hurry, Ross. With pending knee surgery coming up in about six weeks, we've decided to do the fan upgrade next spring.
Love the antique wall covering in the kitchen. Maybe do a vid on how to add electrical sockets like you did in your slide out?
Love the upgrades that you have done. We have done many of these on our 2150RB. Thanks so much for sharing these great ideas.
glad you enjoyed! thanks for watching Jimi!
Fantastic job on this reno! I'll be circling back to your links when/if I get a similar trailer. Jim
Looks great! Can never have enough hooks! Definitely checking out that paper towel holder!

How do you get the command shower caddy to stick since the shower isn't a smooth service? We can't get ours to stick.
try cleaning with alcohol. i didnt have any problems after doing that. if that doesnt work try heating the tape up with a heat gun or hair dryer for a couple seconds to get it momentarily stickier.
What electric fire place do you have that sits on your kitchen counter?
mine has been discontinued, but this one is very close: amzn.to/3VzJtF0
What do you use for internet services on the road ?
pretty much campground wifi with this extender: amzn.to/3Ck6b9u
Do you keep the bedroom TV installed during travel?
Yes, I lock the arm back so it doesn’t swing out.
How were you able to get the recliners into the trailer door? Or did you use another way?
The backs come off of all recliners, they will fit through the door once apart.

Accessories aren’t mod’s! Hanging a paper towel holder are a soap tray where you like it isn’t worth the time of the video. Sometimes I hate RUclips.
