Wow. Your productions are really professional and highly entertaining. Great advice as well. subbed..
This is as my first. You two sounded like an infomercial 😉
Great info, I really liked seeing what the reversed polarity looked like.
We have been RV’ing for over 22 years and we can always learn something new.... like what’s new on the market.
Thanks again!
I would hire you guys to do commercials on anything!!! The Mom & Pop show! Love u guys!! Stay safe, stay healthy, stay happy!
Hello, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine, I'm Augustine from Nashville, Tennessee. Where are you from?
My wife and I are buying our first RV and I have watched countless videos to prepare for our first trip. This is the first video I have watched of yours, and I have to say that it is the single BEST and MOST HELPFUL video I have watched!
Great information. Entertaining. Concise, straight to the point. Links for everything. Great production quality. Short, only 11 minutes long. I have watched much longer, boring videos with much less information. I love how you both explain what the potential issues are, show the product, then clearly show how the product works and why you recommend it. Many TH-camrs can learn from you -- this is how you do it!
THANK YOU so much, I will definitely like and subscribe and check out your other videos!
Thanks for the tips. Love your Elkhound. I had on back in the 70's and he was the best dog I've ever had.
I LOVE your videos. Great pace, great info without any fluff!
Well done, We have been towing RV's for 30 years, and I found a few of your tips very handy.
What outstanding tips! I’m saving this video. Thank you!
I don’t think you get sweeter than this video!! Thanks for the tips and smiles.
Oh man i love these two, thank you so much for this video
This is the best RV hacks video I've seen. Great job.
All tips are great! Thank you for sharing!
This is so very helpful. I want/need/can’t live without any of it. Thank you both!
Hello, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine, I'm Augustine from Nashville, Tennessee. Where are you from?
THANKS FOR SHARING
Thank you for all these tips! I look forward to using them in the future!
You two are awesome and easy to listen to. :)
Thank you for the details on the electricity and the water connections. That will really help.
I have been studying RV channels for a couple of weeks because I want to get a trailer and hit the road this summer. Every one of these tips seemed like a good idea for the rig I am planning to buy. At first I thought this was going to be kinda lame and geared toward the big rigs, but instead I am impressed that I am sure I can use them all.
Great tips. However, you needed to tell people that the pressure reducer needs to go on the shore water connection first and then the water hose. We found a campground in Utah that had 120 PSI water pressure. If I had not put the pressure reducer at the shore connection we would have blown our water hose apart. Thanks. Keep up the good work
Subscribed! Thanks for everything you do for the RV community - this is very useful as we head out on the road for our adventure :)
Awesome tips! I saw a few that I haven't seen on other channels. I will be adding some of these to my routine. Thanks for the video!
Great video guys, those tips are things everybody needs , thanks .
Excellent info on all these products, thanks!
Very helpful tips! Well done!
Love your vids‼️
Here is my tip... Learn to do your own RV maintenance and use a good car maintenance management program ( I use Automotive Wolf car care software ) to track and monitor it all. It also tracks all my parts, expenses and creates a detailed vehicle maintenance log. After RV'ing for over 10 years I've saved thousands by doing most of the maintenance myself and there is a lot of it on an RV! A small roof leak can cost you thousands in repairs so I check my roof at least twice a year. Keep on top of the maintenance and you'll save money and be RV'ing for years :)
Mike and Jennifer you two are awesome.....I'm a pop up trailer fan myself but who knew about all of this....talk about experience....big hug to the both of you....be safe on the road
Excellent list, happy to report that almost all of the items on your list are in my storage box on my little teardrop trailer. I don’t have a bathroom or shower on board, but I started to use a hose and filter at the campground so I don’t have to haul water on my trips. Thanks again for the recommendations!
Y'all are great!! Thank you so much!
Happy Camper for the black tank is the best.....been using it for years.
Some good tips in there....thanx
Thanks guys. Hope to hear you on the aie Mike, N2HYG Paul.
Great list of useful stuff- only knew about a few of them
Great video with RV accessories thanks for your time.
Great video! Quick editing, no rambling, great tips. Thank you!
You two are awesome,I hope you have many many more camping trips together. BTW I like the hose keepers.
Been using Happy Camper for a couple of years ! Awesome Stuff !
Wow. Thanks.
I liked finding out about the surge protector. Plus the sediment from silty sediment problem in some areas. The pressure regulator was cool too!
You guys are awesome!!
Quick connect on the water hose is a great tip. Thanks.
Great ideas Thanks
Thanks yall, great info..
Thanks for sharing your ideas,
Great tips especially the power conditioning surge protector! Thanks as always. Really enjoy your videos.
Hello, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine, I'm Augustine from Nashville, Tennessee. Where are you from?
Thanks for all the tips you two!! It's a learning mans game. That's riggin' baby!!
Thank ever so much for these great insider tips. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for the list of useful items. I definitely see a few that I need to add to my shopping cart LOL
Y’all are adorable! My husband and I are in our mid 30’s and looking for our first hybrid trailer! Thanks for the tips!
Great tips!
This is one of the most helpful RV vids I’ve come across. Thank you sooo much! Bless you both! :D
I’ve been RV camping for about 3 years now and you just filled up my amazon cart. Thanks guys! 😁
I know, me too😬😅
you two are awesome
This was full of ideas I didn’t know about! Thanks. 😎
Awesome info in a compact no-nonsense video. Thank you!!
Love your videos! I have been watching for awhile now and have gotten awesome ideas that have created effective checklists. Keep it coming!
Hello, how are you doing? I hope you're doing fine, I'm Augustine from Nashville, Tennessee. Where are you from?
Omg I just found you guys! You guys are absolutely adorable!!!
That was awesome thanks for sharing.
Excellent video thank you.
Wow you guys are amazing. Starting my RV living within the next month or so. Look forward to your videos.
Good info Thank you.
These folks are very good. They seem to know what they are talking about. Hoping to start RVing in the spring.
Well done! Right to the points.
Excellent little tidbits. I never heard the term "dirty electricity" before, but yeah, I guess it can be dirty. I am glad I found you
There is a couple next to us who gave us another tip. Carry a stick the length of your slide out so you can tell if you are clear of electric boxes and trees. Loved the tips. Installed a permanent surge protector inside the camper.
I have used Happy Camper for years. It definitely works. The only drawback is that it is a powder and can build up in some gate valves and cause leaks. If this happens to you, pre-dissolve it in a small bucket of water before adding it to your tank.
Unbelievable presentation! New Sub, Thank you
A great helpful video. Clear & concise. Many thanks 👍🇦🇺
I realize this is an older vid, but great info. Thanks for sharing with the community!
Thanks for the tips. I have gone out and purchased some already.
I enjoyed your video, thanks for sharing

I love we found your channel. Love your tips.
Love your style! Keep up the good work. Subscribed.
You guys are simply awesome. I felt like I was watching a TV show. Great job.
RV'g is a learning process experimenting which products best serve your individual needs, and learning which products perform as advertised. Not all useful products are found at a RV store, but found in auto supply stores, stores like Harbor Feight, and dollar stores, etc. We all 'Live and Learn' thank you for sharing.
one of the nice things about 2019 is that we can learn from experienced RVers on TH-cam instead of from costly mistakes
So good video. I loved
Excellent video great ideas that make life easier
I don't like the pressure regulators you showed but I love the Happy Camper toilet additive. it is by far the best and I used many of the different additives made for black tanks.
We just purchased our first RV. We're so excited!
