    Outstanding upgrade….well done mate! I always say that, “Sometimes, it’s the small things in life that, put the biggest smile on our faces”! 🥂

    Nice upgrade. Being an RV owner requires also being a handy man/jack of all trades. Well done. I can see maybe a wood spacer between the bumper and the can being an easy fix for the rattle.

    Another Awesome video Ryan and Ester! I've always wondered about those diesel heaters.. I've heard many good things about them and they work great and are economical. You need the heat so much in BC so that should really increase your comfort level. Thanks for the quick update! Glad to see you both are recovering well!

    Oh yeah, nice diesel tank upgrade! Maybe slip some foam board, wood shim, or like you mentioned something hard/ sturdy into the gap to stop the can from rattling. Rattles drive me "nuts" when I'm driving down the road. LOL! Looks like you gained a few extra litres by switching from the plastic container to the aluminum can. Good to see you and Esther in good spirits. Going to send a few dollars your way for you and Esther to enjoy dinner on the town. Enjoy my friend!

    • @randallsmodernlife

      You and me both! I hate rattles, yet my ears are always searching for them haha I don’t think I can drive anything these days without hearing something that needs to be tightened or tuned. I wish I had Esther’s care free ears sometimes, she don’t hear nothing but good times haha
      And I want to say thank you for the $. I am going to take Esther to our favourite Italian joint ‘Pepino’s spaghetti house’. We go maybe once or twice a year, so it really is a special occasion and we are excited!

    I didn't know there was an under carriage cleaner like that. That might be something I should use on our family cars. Do you think the water evaporates before any rust can set in? I'm in the U.S. rust belt, btw.
    I'll be you can attach some rubber to the mount to keep the cannister from moving. :)

    • @randallsmodernlife
      @randallsmodernlife  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I think it’s good in the winter to wash off the salty water that is sprayed up on the road, with fresh clean water. Would keep the rust down.

    I just got done binge watching all of your videos over the last few days. It looks like we were in Arizona at the same time. We probably passed each other on the highway. Sorry I didn't wave.
    Couple if questions. What fuel mileage are you getting in your motorhome? I can do any conversions from metric. And are you on your original diesel heater? Is it a Chinese diesel heater? If you've replaced it already how many times?

    • @randallsmodernlife
      @randallsmodernlife  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for watching them all haha! I was waving at everybody, so if we passed, we waved! Fuel mileage is terrible. I don’t even look to be honest, it’s better for my mental health. It cost about 3k to drive from Vancouver to Arizona and back to Vancouver.
      We are still on our original Chinese diesel heater, running strong for 4 years now. Never had any issues or even had to service it. I have mates with newer ones that constantly break down though. I guess I lucked out.
