How many people thought he was flexing when he said he “completely rebuilt this myself”? 4:44 😂 I bet he removed and replaced one of two heating elements or sum shit 😂 But I have to give credit where it’s due; this man definitely knows his RV. He is well articulated and well versed in his info/research of his RV. His passion shines. 👍 I can safely say an amateur auto mechanic, I love, but know absolutely zilch, about owning and maintains an RV.
awesome tour i have a 2008 monaco monarch and its beautiful i thought it was cool that you did a full tour all in good quality it helped a lot thanks a lot 🙂😊👍
😊. HELLO. MERRY CHRISTMAS REALLY I DO NOT COMMENT TO OFTEN ON TH-cam VIDEOS YET WHEN I WAS LITTLE, OUR PARENTS TOOK US ON VACATIONS EACH SUMMER MOTORHOMES. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS I THINK BECAUSE YOU AND YOUR WIFE ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO EXPLAIN THINGS, YOU CAN SEE THAT YOU GUYS REALLY CARE AND MAINTAIN AND MAKE IMPROVEMENTS ON YOUR MOTORHOME THAT IS SO IMPORTANT I CAN’T STRESS IT ENOUGH IF A PERSON IS GOING TO HAVE A MOTORHOME LIVE OFF GRID WHATEVER THEY NEED TO BE ABLE TO FIX IT AND MAINTAIN IT AND SO MANY PEOPLE DON’T OR THEY DON’T KNOW IT’S VERY EXPENSIVE SO WE GIVE YOU KUDOS FOR THATwe would like to see your winterization and do you travel in the snow that would be interesting thanks bye God bless
We just found you guys with this video and it’s been informative. We will be binge watching your other videos. Funny thing, at the end of the month we’re flying from Arizona, to Palm Beach Florida to pick up a 2007 Monaco Noble III and driving back to AZ. Kind of reverse of your experience. We hope to find and watch your trip in the opposite direction. Keep up the good work.
Congratulations on your beautiful dynasty. I have a 2000 dynasty that I have been living in for going on six years and still love it. Thanks for the video.
OMG! You just added a lot of changes to my list after seeing that couch setup. We have a 2010 43’ Phaeton, but it’s very similar to this Monaco except the bedroom is opposite and bath is a little different, but I like yours better with the single sink! I was buying an almost identical 2009 Monaco to this and the Seller backed out after I opened my mouth about all the people having DEF problems! Haha Very Nicely Done!
My friend. You really do a much better job of reviewing and providing very clear understanding of the components of Large RV's, then some of the other folks. Hope Prevost, Emerald, Superior or Marathon have you review the new and used coaches. Also you would probably make a good consultant on the purchasing of coaches for clients. WELL DONE1
I’m starting out (now) just like y’all, with a few exceptions. First, I’m 71, just retired (back in October 22). I bought a 2002 small 24’ class A, I pull a 20’ enclosed trailer that has my (toy) 1963 Chevy Nova that I can use as a daily driver, but I’m getting ready to buy an e-bike for going around the area I’ll be staying at the time. My plan is to go around America for a year, then either keep going or find a park in Florida to stay in
You did it right in the size, unlike some people that think that a monster size is cool. we have had RVs our whole lives and were now looking for a 24' class C/B+ so we can drive it everywhere and not have parking problems. wishing you lots of good times and good health.
Nice! First motorhome, you pretty much went to the top of the motorhome world (other than Prevost, Newell) . Wish we saw those updates/repairs you have done. Could definitely learn from you and apply on my Monaco Windsor.
Hi guys - WOW, we love your motorhome. It’s amazing what all you have upgraded in the last year. Tom can come and geek out on our motorhome anytime. I wish we had a little geek in us 🤣😂. It sure helps to have different Rvs to help make decisions on what you want when you buy. Thanks for sharing your home with us! Hope to see you on the road again someday ~Janice~ 😊❤️🇺🇸 👏👏👏
Thanks so much for the tour, beautiful coach! I’m pretty hands on with our 2000 Country Coach but all that cool stuff on your coach would scare the ….. out of me. Way too many things to go wrong. Again beautiful rig! Safe travels 😊
Glad to have found you all again. I was following you pretty steady during the Alaska trip, but somehow I fell off your sub list. Happy to see you are still adventuring.
Hi, new subscriber here. That’s an absolutely beautiful Dynasty and very well equipped, similar to an Executive or even the flagship Signature Series. Somebody really ordered it with a ton of upgrades which is super nice. I like everything about it. You mentioned the need for 3 starting batteries. We own an ‘07 Monaco Holiday Rambler Navigator 45’ and it has a Cummins 525HP. The 2 starting batteries really seemed to struggle to start it. I had a new Denso starter installed as my research really recommended this starter to help with the “slow start” issue pertaining to these higher horsepower diesels. It made a vast improvement, however I am having a 3rd starting battery installed as well. Each battery is 950 cranking amps so it will be close to 3K. I believe that between the Denso starter and the addition of the 3 rd battery, there will no longer be any slow starting issues whatsoever. You might want to google and research some of the forums about the Denso starter to become better informed about this solution. Love your channel and good luck with your travels!👍
We also have a 2008 Monaco, but it's a 40' Diplomat diesel pusher. We've loved it so much, it's been a great coach! The dishwasher was a nice addition - which we'd like to add eventually, as you have! Looks great, congratulations you two!
Also note on the Tag Axle, if it is lifted and you start driving it will drop back down when the transmission hit 2nd gear. I was able to test drive one of the 45ft Monaco Signatures with the Cummings ISX (605 HP), great performance for a heavy coach and the stability on the road is fantastic.
Awesome rig you got there ! About wifi I always had signal and appearance issues in my fifth wheel. what i did is go with a Unifi AP centrally located (i fished the rj45 thru the ac duck) and it just blend so well with the ceiling light fixtures , speaker and AC vents. Since it's in a central location the signal in the bedroom is top notch and if you need to upgrade in the futur, it's real easy since it's poe powered.
Great video. New subscriber. I have a 2007 Monaco built coach (Scepter 40PDQ) with a similar lighting system, and would love to see more about how you did the home automation. I recently sold my house and now full time and miss my home assistant. Any chance you have a more detailed video on how you modified to lights and tied it to your home assiatant?
Hello, I am a fellow Monaco dynasty owner and I recently watched your video of the tour of the outside and inside of yours  You’ve done some great upgrades  and was noticing your window coverings and I was wondering if you knew the make and model of what you have
Congratulations on your new beautiful home on wheels! I’m hoping this will be one of many videos of you guys! I’ve sure missed all your adventures like you guys used to put out. Happy travels and stay safe..🙏🏻♥️
Love the video we are looking to full-time RV in our first coach looking to get a 2006 or newer country coach and upgrade the inside so we can run our business from there and live in it full-time.
The thing I love most about these huge motor homes is their gas efficiency. They consume almost no gas, so they're extremely easy on the environment. Towing a car also lessens the load, so even less gas is consumed. These nearly zero-emission monsters would never burn large amounts of fossil fuels which add to climate change. That's the cool thing about these land yachts.
Thanks for the tour. Awesome looking rig, so roomy looking with the slides out. Happy for you guys. Question: What do you do with the computer monitors while traveling? Do you just unplug and lay them down on the sofa? On the desk? On the floor?
Beautiful new coach! After watching Less Junk More Journey in Baja, you may want to take the truck camper to Mexico. Looks like the roads are horrible - at least in Baja they are. Good luck on your adventures.
Thank you for a very informative tour and explanations for us layman. No better bang for the buck than these pre-def Oregon built motorhomes by Monaco, Country Coach, Safari, etc. We love our 08 CC Intrigue!
Hey Tom, not sure if you noticed it but when you had the back of the fridge access door open the plastic bag that you moved (20:20) is now blocking the cooling fan on the back of the fridge.
Thanks for sharing. We have a 2009 dynasty. Can you please share the airbags you have. We need to replace ours and I can’t find the parts. Beautiful coach. Hope to see you on the road! Safe travels.
Replacing the beloved Norcold reefer in a Tiffin, I too had to remove the driver side window. Very easy actually. Plus I was wondering what happened to you guys. Last vid I saw was when you started building out a truck camper. Then again I was on a long rv trip myself with my TT to Florida from Kommifornia
Congratulation on the nice coach. I also choose a 2007 Holiday Rambler for some of the same reasons. I love a lot of the stuff you have done to your coach and I hate to make negative comments but do you have your fresh water faucet connected to your black and gray flush inlet? If so this seems like a contamination risk. Please take this as a constructive question and health safety concern.
Must take FOREVER to pack up and secure all that stuff before traveling. Literally like packing up a small apartment! Yikes! Great if you are a snowbird taking two trips a year, one in the Winter and another in the Summer, but can't imagine actually traveling with a house on wheels. Glad it works for you and that is all that really counts! I'll take that Lance camper you had up in AK ;-)
This was so nice. I bet they feel so free. This makes me wanna buy 1 of these & run off w/ my kids. Lol! I wonder how they receive mail tho. I’m guessing maybe a P.O. Box n 1 place that they visit here & there.
Beautiful motorhome!! we just picked up an 08 dynasty this month and getting all the things fixed up.. how did you mount that aquahot controller? ours is not staying snapped into the little rivet things on the housing..
Is this setup so that you can winter in UP Michigan. Do you solar charge your batteries? It would be extremely entertaining to have Caitlin teach Peter and John how to drive a full size motor home! That would be worthy of a TV show! Hmmmm!! My predictor was way off. I had predicted that you would buy a HDT and the fanciest fifth wheel toy hauler out there making even the Prevost owners jealous!! Perhaps you will still do that someday. THANKS FOR THE TOUR, both external and internal!!! I hope we will get to see videos of both this RV and your expedition vehicle!!! ENJOY THEM BOTH!!!
So no more overlanding adventures? ☹️. It's beautiful but I will miss your off road stuff. I have been watching for a long time. I liked the 5th Wheel you had too. Incinerator toilet would have worked well in the master bath as well.
25:38 Your slide in your living area is carpeted, including in front of your refrigerator, underneath your dinette and underneath your desk. Is that a feature that you enjoy? We would get that carpet so dirty from our experience in our home. With just the two of you it’s probably really comfortable on your bare feet? Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful home!
27:30 I hope that your are friends with “Gone With the Wynns” because Tom wants a dishwasher so bad, but his wife doesn’t because she cooks and he washes the dishes.
Did you record content on your build out? Definitely been missing the updates via TH-cam. I might have to go check out your newsletters as I didn't know they existed. With the new rig, how long can you drive or be offgrid using the residential fridge? Can you use the boiler while underway? One benefit of a boiler system is that you can use it for under tile heating. Did you go that route? Did you have to upgrade the slide motors to handle all the extra weight? Sorry so many questions. It you kind of hit me with information overload!
Slides are all dual hydraulic pistons synced since they are so heavy. We can run about 4 days off-grid before needing to run the gen. Yes the boiler can run underway, however it can be backed by engine heat so it can be heated by engine coolant. We can run heat in the coach and have hot water off the engine. The hot lines do run under the floor and help warm it, but it's not true in floor heat. Would be a great feature however!!
You didn't follow-up on why you disconnected the alternator from the battery charging on your coach. I'm curious b/c we're considering upgrading our RV batteries to LiFePO4 too, and suspect it's due to the draw the new batteries can put on your coach. Did you install a Li-BIM, or at least consider it, or maybe something like a Victron or REDARC DC-DC charging system? Thanks for all the great content you put out!
I'm a little concerned about permanently attaching your potable water system to the flush system. Doesn't that give bacteria a way to enter the potable water system? I know on my house I had to have an air gap for a flush on a rust removal system that entered into my septic tank. Inquiring minds want to know. Nice coach, it's a little to geeky for me but that's Tom. I have a Nexus Ghost Super C that has some of the neat stuff you have but not anywhere near all of them. Good luck guys and keep the good stuff coming.
I had an '05 Monaco but sold it a while back. I installed solar on it and ran into an issue while driving. I got an overvoltage alarm. It was not a problem per se but I did have to research it. Did you run into the same issue?
Welcome to the Monoco family 🚌😊
How many people thought he was flexing when he said he “completely rebuilt this myself”? 4:44 😂 I bet he removed and replaced one of two heating elements or sum shit 😂

Smart move buying the old bones of the top-of-the-line Monaco! Most likely one of the best coaches ever built. Congratulations. Thomyt
This is the best motorhome video I have seen! You covered all the bases and very informative.
awesome tour i have a 2008 monaco monarch and its beautiful i thought it was cool that you did a full tour all in good quality it helped a lot thanks a lot 🙂😊👍
Thk you. I'm impressed with what you've done to the coach.
Congratulations such a beautiful mansion on wheels

Nice rig and upgrades! Hope you have some videos in the queue for all your projects! Best...
We're all over but usually Florida or desert southwest for the winters. We stick to ourselves for the most part.
My Nana would love this siting on the couch in front of the tv with a cup of coco and slippers on, the perfect cozy granny mobile love it.
Great video!!! Best of luck with your beautiful new home!!!
Thank you for sharing!!
Lovely setup 😊
❤❤❤WOOW!!!! This is the perfect layout!!!!
We really like it! We thought about getting a newer model, but couldn't find a layout we liked more.
Congratulations on your new rig! Hope your new space gives you both a great travel experience. Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations on your new rig! We loved our 42’ 2007 Dynasty , a lot of great memories

Wow what an amazing coach. You got all the bells and whistles. A giant diesel generator too!!
These Motorhomes are the Best! Godspeed.
Wow, that’s a lot of rig. You could tow your truck. Talk about automation those shades voice activation. You have talent in turning out nice upgrades.
Hi guys - WOW, we love your motorhome. It’s amazing what all you have upgraded in the last year. Tom can come and geek out on our motorhome anytime. I wish we had a little geek in us 🤣😂.

Safe travels 😊
Very nice setup. We drove an old 99 Country coach from Pheonix to Tampa. I understand what that experience can be like !
Glad to have found you all again. I was following you pretty steady during the Alaska trip, but somehow I fell off your sub list. Happy to see you are still adventuring.
Beautiful coach! Looks like it lives very well. Love the floor plan. Very well presented as always. Best to you both! George
I loved your Mansion on wheels Motorhome. It is beautiful.
I love your RV . It’s the bomb . Fantastic upgrades & happy travels ❤🌎 .
I really enjoyed your video. Thank you.
Beautiful motorcoach love the upgrades, thanks for sharing. Safe travels

Then you are in a very similar coach! It was a bit of work for the dishwasher, but it has worked perfect so far.
OMG that is one happy man!
Also note on the Tag Axle, if it is lifted and you start driving it will drop back down when the transmission hit 2nd gear.
I was able to test drive one of the 45ft Monaco Signatures with the Cummings ISX (605 HP), great performance for a heavy coach and the stability on the road is fantastic.
Yea that's how it works, nice that you don't need to think about it. That tag does add a lot of stability.
Beautiful and informative!
What a beautiful rig and you have really worked on the upgrades.
Awesome rig you got there ! About wifi I always had signal and appearance issues in my fifth wheel. what i did is go with a Unifi AP centrally located (i fished the rj45 thru the ac duck) and it just blend so well with the ceiling light fixtures , speaker and AC vents.

Well done Mortons! Well thought out.
Wow. Nice. What happened to the super off road truck camper?? 😱
It takes more than an expedition vehicle to go on an expedition. When you have a Class A no one expects you to go beyond KOA.
Congratulations, nice motor coach
💛💛💛
Great video, fabulous looking RV
Looks like you did upgrades and repairs to both the inside and the drive train.
Well done you two.
Thanks, yea it needed a bit of work but it's in pretty good shape now!
@@MortonsontheMove Yall are killing it! Keep up the good work and fun content.

Wow really Uptown !
12:10 I care about all of the technical aspects of these amazing diesel pushers!
Great set up love it!
Love the video we are looking to full-time RV in our first coach looking to get a 2006 or newer country coach and upgrade the inside so we can run our business from there and live in it full-time.
Wow super nice
Looks awesome! Did you guys do a video or blog on replacing the air bags? We have a Beaver Motorcoach that had a few in need of replacement.
U guys did a great job!! Would love to see before and after pictures!
The thing I love most about these huge motor homes is their gas efficiency. They consume almost no gas, so they're extremely easy on the environment.

You guys did good
Thank you for a very informative tour and explanations for us layman. No better bang for the buck than these pre-def Oregon built motorhomes by Monaco, Country Coach, Safari, etc. We love our 08 CC Intrigue!
Good to hear from you guys...now I know what you have been doing...I think it is a smart move. I like Monaco motor homes. Good job.
This was probably one of the last coaches made by Monaco before the BK Filing.
Wow. Just wow.
Great video! Perhaps I missed it, but would you mind sharing the brand and/or model of dishwasher?
Hey Tom, not sure if you noticed it but when you had the back of the fridge access door open the plastic bag that you moved (20:20) is now blocking the cooling fan on the back of the fridge.
Thanks, I went back and checked and I had moved out all together lol.
A beautiful home 🏡 ❤🎉
Thanks! Its different but we love it!
Thanks for sharing. We have a 2009 dynasty. Can you please share the airbags you have. We need to replace ours and I can’t find the parts. Beautiful coach. Hope to see you on the road! Safe travels.
Great job!
New subscriber. Where do you spend winters?
Do you post places you’ll be? Have meet and greets?
FMCA members?
Replacing the beloved Norcold reefer in a Tiffin, I too had to remove the driver side window. Very easy actually.
Plus I was wondering what happened to you guys. Last vid I saw was when you started building out a truck camper.
Then again I was on a long rv trip myself with my TT to Florida from Kommifornia
Congratulation on the nice coach. I also choose a 2007 Holiday Rambler for some of the same reasons. I love a lot of the stuff you have done to your coach and I hate to make negative comments but do you have your fresh water faucet connected to your black and gray flush inlet? If so this seems like a contamination risk. Please take this as a constructive question and health safety concern.
I love your videos but I really miss the blogging videos well done tho all the best from Canada xo❤
Must take FOREVER to pack up and secure all that stuff before traveling. Literally like packing up a small apartment! Yikes! Great if you are a snowbird taking two trips a year, one in the Winter and another in the Summer, but can't imagine actually traveling with a house on wheels. Glad it works for you and that is all that really counts! I'll take that Lance camper you had up in AK ;-)
This was so nice. I bet they feel so free. This makes me wanna buy 1 of these & run off w/ my kids. Lol! I wonder how they receive mail tho. I’m guessing maybe a P.O. Box n 1 place that they visit here & there.
Monaco's are good👍🇺🇲 just subscribed 🎉
Would you share where you purchased your sofa? It looks like it’s the right size for our CC .
It's a Thomasville brand we got at Costco. Haven't seen the same one since, we just had our measurements and came across it randomly.
Which induction stove and dishwasher did you get and do you like them? Thx!
Beautiful motorhome!!
we just picked up an 08 dynasty this month and getting all the things fixed up.. how did you mount that aquahot controller? ours is not staying snapped into the little rivet things on the housing..
Is this setup so that you can winter in UP Michigan. Do you solar charge your batteries? It would be extremely entertaining to have Caitlin teach Peter and John how to drive a full size motor home! That would be worthy of a TV show! Hmmmm!! My predictor was way off. I had predicted that you would buy a HDT and the fanciest fifth wheel toy hauler out there making even the Prevost owners jealous!! Perhaps you will still do that someday. THANKS FOR THE TOUR, both external and internal!!! I hope we will get to see videos of both this RV and your expedition vehicle!!! ENJOY THEM BOTH!!!
Did you say in addition to this mansion on wheels you have several properties around the country??
So no more overlanding adventures? ☹️. It's beautiful but I will miss your off road stuff. I have been watching for a long time. I liked the 5th Wheel you had too.
Incinerator toilet would have worked well in the master bath as well.
25:38 Your slide in your living area is carpeted, including in front of your refrigerator, underneath your dinette and underneath your desk. Is that a feature that you enjoy?

The new Class A looks nice. One thing I have been meaning to ask you was how was the Refrigerator update doing in you put in 5th Wheel?
Did you record content on your build out? Definitely been missing the updates via TH-cam. I might have to go check out your newsletters as I didn't know they existed.
With the new rig, how long can you drive or be offgrid using the residential fridge? Can you use the boiler while underway?
One benefit of a boiler system is that you can use it for under tile heating. Did you go that route? Did you have to upgrade the slide motors to handle all the extra weight? Sorry so many questions. It you kind of hit me with information overload!
Slides are all dual hydraulic pistons synced since they are so heavy. We can run about 4 days off-grid before needing to run the gen. Yes the boiler can run underway, however it can be backed by engine heat so it can be heated by engine coolant. We can run heat in the coach and have hot water off the engine. The hot lines do run under the floor and help warm it, but it's not true in floor heat. Would be a great feature however!!
Great video, that floorplan and options that are awesome. I did not realize you could get series 60 in the diplomat. What floor plan is that?
It's the dynasty, don't think you can get it in diplomat. It's the Yorkshire IV
You didn't follow-up on why you disconnected the alternator from the battery charging on your coach. I'm curious b/c we're considering upgrading our RV batteries to LiFePO4 too, and suspect it's due to the draw the new batteries can put on your coach. Did you install a Li-BIM, or at least consider it, or maybe something like a Victron or REDARC DC-DC charging system? Thanks for all the great content you put out!
That's it. Yea we could do that, but it's just not that big of a benefit compared to the solar and gen. Maybe an upgrade down the road tho!
Could you do a video on how to change the intellitec lighting on your coach I have a 2006 Dynasty would love to know how to change the functions.
I have reprogrammed the panels and can probably do a writeup on that but haven't been able to tap the whole.system for control yet.
Guys, please do a video on the engine with the nerd🤣🤣
I'm a little concerned about permanently attaching your potable water system to the flush system. Doesn't that give bacteria a way to enter the potable water system? I know on my house I had to have an air gap for a flush on a rust removal system that entered into my septic tank. Inquiring minds want to know. Nice coach, it's a little to geeky for me but that's Tom. I have a Nexus Ghost Super C that has some of the neat stuff you have but not anywhere near all of them. Good luck guys and keep the good stuff coming.
Hi the Monaco Dynastys are a beautiful coach but i was just curious, has yours got the Cummins engine on a Roadmaster Chassis.
13:21 How do you get your weight training in now that you’ve gone Battle Born lithium?
Nice looking coach. How do you keep the electronics compartment (under the driver) from getting wet?
Thank you! The compartment is well sealed and we've never had any issues with water in there.
Nice coach you have, but you won't be doing much deep off grid camping with it. I like the camper rig better.
What, you didn’t do videos of your trip from AZ? 😢
I had an '05 Monaco but sold it a while back. I installed solar on it and ran into an issue while driving. I got an overvoltage alarm. It was not a problem per se but I did have to research it. Did you run into the same issue?
1700lbs of torque 😮
Man I had to laugh when I saw the pile of Work-Out Weights! There’s plenty of heavy shit to lift in the bay of a ClassA Coach! LoL
Did you sell your Bigfoot/Ram?
