    The Ralphie commentary throughout this video was definitely funny, especially when his mom was removing that nasty mattress.
    Considering what's available nowadays for RVs and pull behind trailers, a family of 5 staying in an RV like this would definitely look out of place.
    At least Ralphie and Wawa like it, Squeezy doesn't know what she's talking about.

    I think it's fantastic that both of you have regular jobs and are still able to be good parents and have fun family projects!
    I miss growing up like that! It was a great lesson that your life starts after your job is done, don't hit the couch, it's your time do something fun!

    Mama and Ralphie did a great job! I think we sort of know in advance that things might not go quite to plan, but really looking forward to the next episode!
    PS, it's not that hard to replace the roof on one of these things. If I can do it you guys certainly can. Good luck!

    Cant wait for the follow ups to this video.
    I just love seeing unloved, unwanted machines of any sort being brought back to life AND used.
    The fact it's a motorhome makes it even more interesting.
    I remember our 1st caravan, I paid £250 for it, 30 years old and the guy I bought it off had used it for himself and his friends to go fishing in.
    Well, as I was towing it home I thought to myself "what on earth is my partner going to think of this thing?"
    SHE LOVED IT!!!
    1st thing we did was rip the old Wilton carpet out of it and take every single door off the inside, deep cleaned every orifice and replaced all the doors with brand new brass hinges (she was an old girl).
    I replaced the carpet with a brand new item and the inside looked like a little palace.
    The outside was in pretty good condition so a real good wash, replace some small items of trim and we had, what I still consider to this day, the best caravan we have ever owned.
    Loved it.
    I bet you & your family will be just as proud and have a ball on your breaks in it.
    Good luck.

    Keys? Om all or nearly all RVs. the CH-741 key will fit everything except the entry door, and of course, the ignition and the cab doors. The roof isn't all that bad to repair. After taking everything off the effected area, peel back the rubber roof membrane, them the plywood and reveal the ceiling "studs" Which are generally made from 2x4s, radiused to provide the roof pitch for drainage. The inside is typically vinyl covered plywood, and you can find a "close enough" replacement at Home Depot or Lowes. I haven't rebuilt one for just over 30 years, but they are all pretty much the same. You can buy a re-roof EPDM rubber kit with the material, chemistry and instructions on line, these days.
    A/C? The roof air is pretty simple to remove or install. Take down the interior part, then remove the 3 or 4 very long bolts that hold the top and inside together. The Installation is really simple. Fits a 14x14 hole, as do the roof vents. That antenna is an old school TV antenna, meant to crank up and rotate from inside. Not digital.
