What did you think of the Clearwater install that Ney Ney and Carl whipped up? 😄 What are some other great options for water that you use on the road? Renovation ideas? Love ya’ll!!
Are you filtering the water before the water tank or after the water tank? Simply curious?
Dexter needs a cat tree lol
Well I agreed that you need at least one for Dexter because Miss pattycakes has five plus several other toys
@@berylwhite2983 In our house, we have wall shelves and bridges, etc as well as several cat trees lol
I'll sign the petition!!
Carl said, breaking his back bending over to pick up the dish detergent 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love how damn smart Nene is. She is basically municipal water engineer.
Noelle and I only lasted 6 months in our rig before ripping everything out and painting the entire kitchen/living room. I can't believe you lasted 5 years before doing these renovations. 🤣 nicely done! Can't wait for Hanksgiving!!!!
Really love that you can fill the soap dispenser from the top, that's sooo easy.
Dexter didn't look like he was particularly happy about all that confusion going on. :) The new workstation looks great!
See 👀 how fast Renee was working 💪 👷♀️ impressive 🤠👍
You kids need a countertop dishwasher! Tiny, boxy, but really nice. There is even one that fits inside the sink and drains directly down the drain. No plumbing needed.
#ThanksHanks! Thursday's are better with the Hanks! And Dexter of course!
Love the Soap dispenser
The rear window comes out and the sofa goes out the window more intact...good job of getting it out.
NeNe says "where are people going to sleep if they stay the night?" I says "look at all that space in the storage compartment." The new desk/seating area looks really nice; we had one of the soap dispensers on our countertop before and it worked great for about 2 months and then developed soap booger clogs that then has to be cleaned before it would dispense soap again for a few more months and then repeat cleaning process again; in the end it was a great idea but didn't quite work out as great as we imagined. The water filter install was epic and looked totally doable without any instructions at all; I was surprised at the octopus of pipes and ducting that is hidden behind the access panel in the storage area, looks a lot more haphazard that I would have expected. As always, your videos are great.
Love the new renovations! The new office space looks great and the chairs are multi purpose. Also the soap dispenser 👍
I absolutely love your new chairs on your desk beautiful!!
Thank you!! 😊
My husband and I bought our first camper we're so excited and we watch you guys and Dex, every night. Your fifth wheel is amazing.... we're from South Carolina
Love the new office area!!! Looks great and functional!
We are so happy with it 🙂 Of course, Ney Ney is always trying to think of new ways to decorate or spice up the inside of the RV lol
Soap dispenser is a great idea! Now do you have any suggestions on getting someone else to do the dishes??
Hello Hank's. It's Thursday, time for happily ever Hank's. Love the videos.
Dude and Dudette! VERY COOL!
We have the same Living/Kitchen concept as what you've got in our North Point 377RLBH with the rear, useless couch, The real only big difference between ours and your plan is our middle bunk that I figured Steph and I would just share the space/desk in, right? OH NO....;
The crap she's got in there....
We've got some mods in this as well like NO DINETTE! That was something we never cared about while shopping. It's a 66ft long buffet/storage/table/what ever we use it for but unfortunately a "catch all"!
Then the bunk room.....
The couch/sleeper is history! It's now holding Steph's stuff and the printers/work station. PERFECT!
SO...... not much for me.... Time to do what you did here in the rear couch area! Great idea and now it's gonna be MY idea, stolen from you two!!!
Got a "SQUIRREL!" question for you... You know.... SUDDEN CHANGE OF SUBJECT....
Winter months. Saw what you did last season and before but haven't heard if you guys ever thought of doing the "QUARTSZITE" thing????.... We're heading out of Colorado tomorrow after some really cold white stuff came from the sky yesterday and scared me! This Californian never saw that before!!! It was WEIRD!!!! So off to Laughlin for a while, Cali after the Santa Ana season is over then Quartszite after for a month or so.
Hope you three are well. See ya down the road one day! Be Safe!
Add a cap to your flush valve to prevent leaks and a possible flood.
What a delightful Friday morning surprise as I sat down to eat breakfast and turned on TH-cam to see HappilyEverHanks listed first because I had forgotten that Thursday night had already happened!! Ney Ney I nearly spit waffles through my nose (is that possible??) and laughed hard at your "Business in the back PARTY in the front!!!" as you pointed to the desk and then to the bedroom!! OMG that was HILARIOUS girlbud!! I didn't think a Friday could be made better as I got ready for work, but you nailed it! Thanks Hanks!!! Love you guys 😙
I work for PIZZA 🍕 too ! The desk space looks great ! Dexter is going to love it 😽
THE most important thing………how does the Dex-man feel about the mods?!?!🐾❤️🐾
I love the chairs!!!
My first movable RV. Was an Airstream trailer. And for a while I lived in a Toyota dolphin. The previous owner. One of the previous owners. Had put a hot water dispensing faucet by the sink. The five years I had that RV I was constantly in the process of trying to get that thing to work again. I should have just went to the Appliance Repair place and got a replacement. My Dolphin burned down on the way home from Ozzz Fest.
Those new chairs for your desk do look very nice and like that you showed a water filtering system going in and why since I asked about that quite some time ago as to why you drank bottled water in the RV and not from your sink. Way back when I was 14 I lived in California and My Aunt from N.J. came out for My older sisters highschool graduation and then I was going to go back with her to N.J. but stopped in Missouri for a few days at my Uncle's house and was supposed to pick up my cousin. So just after a few days lay over in Missouri we went to N.J. and like the next Day I had a very bad stomach ache actually painful and went to the Dr . and was told I had Gastritis and it most likely was from the three different states water in such a short time. So goes to figure why with all the traveling and different water sources that a good water filter system would be necessary. Nene rocked the demonstration and explained the valves perfectly and Karl did great job with the install. Love the new soap dispenser too. Thanks you guys for another great video and now I think you need to get Dexter a window Hammock put it on that big back window so he can be close to you while you work and supervise too 😊🐈🐾
We are starting full time next year (two 30 something year olds with no kids and a dog let’s hang! Lol) and we had to stop ourselves from being concerned about *other people* when those times will be 1/30th of the time while we will be living there every day. We told our families and friends that they can come meet us and hang out but we can’t house anyone because we took out the bunk room and made it our office and our overhead hunk is our storage area 🤷🏼♀️ I feel like it’s the same as living in my first one bedroom apartment. My parents came to visit me but, never expected to stay the night because it was small and “my space”. We are deff treating our 5th wheel the same way 🥰
You guy’s will love that water filtration system. We used 1 all season and there was very little calcium when I cleaned out our water heater
The new bookshelf - Flying books on drive days?
How do you batten down the hatches ?
Bungee ?
I look forward to your videos each week! Ur my favs!
Congrats on the osmosis water system it makes a huge difference! The desk turned out great and I love that it can be adjusted up or down for comfort. Being over 65 both my husband and I are gadget junkies, countertop ice maker, Aquatru osmosis water system, workstation sink with inserts, soap dispensers in kitchen and bath, every little product makes life easier and feel more at home! I hope Dexter is doing well, he really is such a trooper!
Wait till you find out you can run a hose from the soap dispenser to a large soap jug and only have to replace it once a year instead of having to full the small little bottle it comes with every few days ;)
Removing the couch was the very first thing we did when we got into the FT RV’ing! Makes SUCH a difference in the living space!!
Looks great. And honestly the back couch is pretty much useless. A desk is a much better use of the space 👍
Sweet updates, the table is a game changers for that space!!! Looks like you added 4 more feet to the back of the unit. We have the soap dispenser in our home kitchen, thanks for the reminder we can do it in our RV as well (doohh!). Lucky for you someone was out collecting RV couches on marketplace lol. Great timing on your part. The three-filter system is on our "to-do" list and we will probably do that over the winter months. We are getting ready to hit the road for 18 days next week. Philly to LA to Houston and back... Wish us luck.
Omg I feel dumb, I have a soap dispenser and I didn't know you could refill it from the top lol 🤣
Is this how you guys stay fit on the road😂 lookin good great job
We appreciate you 🤗
Hi 👋🏻
I don’t know how big the area is under the sink but what I did at our house was put a large jug of detergent under the sink and attach a piece of clear tubing from soap pump down into the large jug. This way you only replace it 2x a year or so!
We have the clear source water but I just set it up outside with quick release..For me the less connections the better and didnt want to give of space doing a mount inside the basement...the soap dispencer will get installed in ours...I enjoy watching the 2 of you working together to get to your goal...you got yourself a good wife who doesnt mind getting her hands dirty...she is a keeper you guys take care and see you in Arizona
If you ever have guests that sleep over, just get a air mattress. You have enough room between the new desk and island! I bet it will sleep better than the pullout too. Great job on the upgrades!! And yes, Dexter would love a cat tree! 😸 if the bookshelf doesn’t work out! 😉Happy Camping and safe travels! ❤️ Also after last week’s video, I had a spammer trying to get me to text a number saying I was the winner of new camping “gears” from y’all! I didn’t text! Just FYI! ❤❤
That’s a really nice crimp tool.
I recently had to to some plumbing in my house and needed some of those valves. They are nice, but very spendy!
Love watching RV updating to meet functional needs in such a stylish way. Chairs and desk looks great and the views you’ll have! Great idea!
The new workspace looks great! Now put some new strings on that guitar! :D
Love the desk guy's! I am going to do the soap idea I think my wife would love it.
I know this is an old video, but I’m binge watching…
1) I love yalls channel. My wife and I are trying to figure out how to go full time
2) your guitar strings are wound backwards. Love the Esteban though. I have one my dad got me a long time ago lol.
Safe travels!!
Maybe you already have one, but I'd suggest getting a plug cap to install where the city water quick attach is. When traveling or not in use no dust dirt or critters will get inside your line.
Good video and thanks.
I've had my ClearSource 3-stage for about a year-and-a-half now. Love it! I've just put in my third set of filters, as I'm full-time I change them every 6 months. Big savings not having to purchase bottled water all the time. That was a great mod to add the desk. I have a Grand Design Imagine 2670mk. I purchased it mainly because of the rear desk with a huge rear window. It's great to see the views when working on the computer. Another great episode. Thanks, guys.
Great renovations and congrats on the 100K award from TH-cam! That soap dispenser is exactly what we need for our kitchen to replace a hot water dispenser that no longer works. Thanks!
Are you doing all your dishes with the filtered water? A different option might have been to run the bypass up to the cavity under the sink, just food for thought to save your filters some. Or another spout just for the filtered water, you already know how to drill the hole.
We have been working on a work desk conversion. We work remote so we can work while on the road in our RV.
I have one of those soap dispensers in my house. I use it 10 times a day minimum.
My wife and I love you guys!!
I hope we can see you out their soon!
Keep up the great work
We have a Grand Design Reflection with the same lay out. We will do the same thing after I get the wife's approval. We also have the same water filter works great.
Nice mods! I have been thinking of upgrading to a good water filtration setup. Thanks for showing how easy it can be.
Good job guys!!! Looks great and the soap dispenser is always a treat!! Enjoy! Pats for dexter!!!
I just added a Reverse Osmosis + Alkaline system to my trailer for $200. It's cheaper, better filtered, and was very simple to install. doesn't require all the PEX tubing.
You kids are so fun to watch. Stay safe and enjoy your life
Super super super video, looks perfect!
I have to say that the desk is a great mod! I wonder why a desk is not an option in RV's today. With a lot of people working from home or working from RV, the dinette gets old really quickly. And what a great location for your new workspace! You might have to pull the blinds down to actually get some work done. Great job Hanks! Stay safe my friends.
🍀🍀🍀🍀 as always well done Hanks - how far you have come with life on the road - have a beautiful week
WE have just started renovating our RV. Not sure where it will take us yet. Keep up the great work.....looks great!!
I love what you did and your desk chairs look NICE!!!
Dexter looked like he was running from the paparazzi!😂😂 Super nice office chairs! And desk, and I love that lime green tank Mrs. Hank(s).💚
Filter and new desk setup looks really good! Nice Job!
Dexter: "..I don't actually know these people. They just sort of moved in and took over. I mean, the nerve! Oh it's I ok I guess, as long as this food keeps showing up in my bowl."
Love these ideas!
Well done - love the mods! TBH, I was kinda hoping for a kitty kondo and some version of a cat trapeze.
Nice Job Renee and Kyle.
I love these renovations! That desk looks awesome!! Now Dexter has a place to sit while you work on the videos. That dish soap dispenser - definitely something I need to look into doing, but I don't know if we have room for that in our little kitchen. Great stuff - #ThanxHanks!!
Looks amazing!!!
Love the additions!
You need to save the old furniture. When you sell the RV, new owners will expect a standard configuration with everything intact.
#ThanksHanks Just ordered a Bucket Boss tool bag. Appreciate it!
You guys are amazing!
LOVE the new workspace!
Definitely very cool!!!!
Great items! Love watching you guys!
Good information. Thank you.
LOVE THE MODS!!
It looks great! Good job guys!
Proud of yall!
Great upgrades! Thanks for bringing us along!
Great job guys!! Love the desk!
Awesome job! Looks great 😊
Awesome DYI Video, You Two, Thanks!
Great job you two. Love the mods.
Love the new work space. I’ve been eyeing the dinette in our slide out. But where will Dexter sleep in the sun. I notice he spends a lot of time on the back of the couch.
Filtration system looks nice, and sure it works great, but I put in 6 lithium batteries in the pass- through (have 310GK). Hope you enjoy. The workspace is good idea, but retired OR Educator RN…so no need at this time. One of your vids a bit ago you said you were going to CA, guess that is for a travel RN job(s). Prices there will be really high for everything - spent 60 years in San Diego area, sold home, and now full-time RVing. Safe and happy travels.
We went with the Acuva water purification system. Lot less cumbersome and super simple install. We love your videos and maybe will will see you on the road some day. Safe travels😊
Great tips. Awesome job. Thanks Hanks!!!
Finally a video I really find helpful. Thank you.
Your office space looks great! Hopefully it will help you be disciplined when it is work time. You know-work hard, play hard!
LOVE my adjustable desk(s). I ended up buying 3!
That's awsome guys. You guys are killing it.
Way to go guys, you rocked it!!!
💪💪💪
Thank you so much for another fun yet informative video! 😃
Cool ideas looks good
Love the desk and chairs looks great!
Great upgrades and updates on your RV home.
