Welcome to our post RV renovation walkthrough! While this is probably our longest video yet, we think it's worth it. Here we showcase all the changes we made to turn our 2006 Lance 1191 Truck Camper into our dream rig. This renovation was a roller coaster ride, but we couldn't be happier with the results.

You guys are a great couple. Love also how you narrate your content and how you let each other talk. Not to mention the absolutely awesome remodel of your truck trailer! Great job!
Beautiful workmanship and attention to detail! Perfectionists you both! Love it!
So great to see you traveling again! Your truck camper renovation is beautiful and inspiring!! Rae- you could be a camper designer. Beautiful ideas and that bathroom is stunning! Excellent job to you both for creating a lovely, functional space!
Aww, thank you so much for the kind words!

For your door at 4:40 ... have you considered cutting the door and adding a piano hinge? Cut the door like 3" from the top, add the hinge, then you won't have to bend to get under it.
Dash may be correct but you need something different.😮
The dog is cracking me up...he is so intent on listening and looking back at us😅
Put some green/or white flower ivy around dining area...or an oval would be cute...or
a very small black/white valance to hide corners?....just a few ideas
Love your renovation! You two look so happy! ❤ Stay safe and enjoy everyday.
Love this build, it's beautiful. Really enjoy you two. If I watched tv while lying down I'd be asleep within 5 minutes every time..Oh yeah..... Go Hawks....what a comeback yesterday against Cleveland.
You guys did great! But u can get a humidifier, small tv(hideaway), and that sky light there is someone that can help(he’s helped a Mercedes RV’er with fans and their up dated sky light. I saw those ideas in other RV’s stories and the tiny home tours too. Keep showing your updates so all of us viewers can help u complete your RV renovating. Both of you have done a great job! Pretty soon you’re gonna help other RV life owners add or improve stuff that fits their needs. Companies like it when you mention their names on the items you bought from them especially generators and appliances. Good work team. I’ll catch up on your next updates. 👍
Use the Den Dry under your mattress to help avoid moisture. It helps air to breathe between mattress and flat surface. And ikea has a small humidifier that is perfect for your RV and can be seen in other TH-cam RV living and tiny home bloggers. And also for that skylight there is a couple of experts on TH-cam that recommend in helping to install with update use of a skylight. I’ll send you information to find them. They are awesome and creative how they fix sky lights in RVs.
Thanks for the tour. Awesome job you both did. I could live in that all year. You both have great taste too.
K...one more...this renovation is very
very AWESOME...love it and you three are AWESOME
!!!!! Have a blast...be grateful...love each other ❤❤❤❤
Yay! Glad y'all are back. Awesome video! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Enjoying the remodel! We transitioned in 2020 from a 2019 Momentum 351M to 2015 Lance 1052 and have been upgrading and loving the truck camper life! You guys are giving us some great ideas and love how you explain your thinking process and challenges, because we all face those when trying to figure out these small spaces. Keep up the good videos, been watching you for years.
Aww, thank you for the kind words and for being with us for years! It's been quite the journey. So glad to hear you are loving the truck camper life too! It's a big change but opens so many doors travel wise.
Jason and Rae you did a fabulous job on the Reno. I love the idea of a truck camper for ease of travel. I have missed you and so happy to see you back . Hope you will share your Alaska trip with us. Looking forward to more content from you. Safe travel and be happy.
Thank you so much for the kind words. We are sharing everything from Alaska! Had the best time and just started digging into the footage to start editing 😊
Awesome job guys; removing mirror cabinet from bathroom was great idea.
So wonderful..love all the extra things you did to make things work or work better, like the fridge. You are so delightful together in explaining.
Thank you so much!
Love your finished project; so much work put into this and great to see how you are using & loving it. Similar to you, we downsized from a big fifth wheel to a 21’ fifth wheel ((Escape 5.0) and I truly believe smaller is better. Love, love, love your bath, great entrance, Uber cozy bedroom. Greatly appreciate the technology put into this.
Also, if someone says smack about your loving project, ignore them …don’t let their negatively impact you. Yes, easier said than done, but do your best to let those comments roll off your back.
It is your home, a passion of love, and truly, awesome. I’m guessing you have departed AK as the seasons are changing. Be safe & enjoy.
Well done.
Aww thank you for the kind words, we appreciate it. We have departed Alaska, but it left an impression that will last forever!
Everything looks awesome. Beautiful and professional looking. The detail, the colors....just a fabulous job.
Hi Jason and Rae! You both did a great job of renovating the truck camper. I love it. I love what you did to make a coat closet and pantry. It all looks fabulous. It’s great to see you both camping again. Have a great week and safe travels.
Thank you so much, we really appreciate your kind words! 🥰
Wonderful transformation! Your attention to detail is inspiring.
I have been researching different types of rv/van living and this is awesome. I think this maybe what i need instead of the big RV. Thanks for the tour.
Looks great!! I’ll be using a few of your ideas in my one owner 2005 1181. Thanks for the tour!
I really like the black and white. Also the switch of the pantry and the coat closet was a good move! I think you guys did a great job.
Hey guys, first time seeing you on TH-cam and first thing that I noticed was how well both of y'all's energy is very well matched. Great reinvention job and she was correct in saying, "It looks finished"..... very nice video and well put together.
It came out beautiful and both of you are so handy. I know how much work you put into this and it really shows. Enjoy your travels, keep putting out those great videos and stay safe in your travels. Carmen is one lucky dog to have you both.
We're lucky to have her as well! And thank you for the kind words.
Great video! Love your color scheme too! Thanks for sharing!
Been watching the reno as it went along, end product looks great! you should be proud of all your hard work and innovative ideas! Good job! Hope to see you on you tube more often.
Fantastic!! I really appreciate you doing the shower video, I watched it and now I am not afraid of redoing my RV shower!! As a new RV owner I am learning so much from You tube University. Thanks for the inspiration and the details explained. Keep ip the good work.
Looks fantastic! 😃 Your hard work shows. Love it!
Sweet Carmen is the icing on the cake. 🤗
It’s a beautiful RENOVATION.
For the sink, you could glue L- bracket to the sink. Then screw it to the counter top. And to the wood frame under the sink. Yes use the magnet for the shower curtain.
It's awesome you guys! I got so many ideas for mine 😊 Thank you!
Absolutely an AWESOME renovation! You two are so talented and resourceful.
We would love to hear about your Alaska adventures. We’re planning on going back next summer.
Stunning RV renovation!👍👍😍😍🤩🤩
Lovely!
You two did such a great job! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks for watching!
This is a beautiful renovation! Enjoy your travels and stay safe!
Love it! Great job guys.
Looks fantastic! You should be very proud! Enjoy!!! Glad you are back!
We definitely are! Thank you so much 😄
On the corners of your slide out you can add square wooden decorations. You see these on window and doors in houses. They usually have a circle carved in them. Or you could add square black metal laser cut designs like moose or bear. Love your camper.
Thank you and thanks for the tip!
I was going to suggest the same. I used them in my kitchen. Easy and looks nice.
Love it! Great job!
Awesome job you 2! 🎉🎉👍 You are so lucky to have an actual CLOSET! My 5th wheel only has a "coat closet" sized space.
Shower - Put two hooks on each side of the mirror and either use bungee cords or just plain elastic to cross in front of the mirror. Easy to put on, easy to take off. Try it.
I love the shade idea on the inside of the screen door, I'm going to do the same to my camper. It was always a hassle to open the doors to move the door shade up/down, so we always kept it down which always kept it dark inside.
You guys did an awesome job..omg I love it all.... Safe travels...
Amazing renovation! So many thoughtful & clever touches to make it your own! Fabulous job, guys!!! Worth the wait :)
Aww, thank you so much for the kind words! 😄
First off, fabulous job on the camper! It turned out great. You guys have come a long way from when you first started out. Love watching you grow from campgrounds to boondocking. Hope you have many happy trails with your new baby.
Thanks so much! We definitely have come a long way. Can't wait to start taking her out on the road.
You guys did a great job! Wish you much fun & luck in your travels!
I absolutely love it Rae and Jason! Job well done you two!
Thank you!
So awesome ❤❤❤❤ great job!
I'm glad I ran across this. I enjoyed your videos with your 5 Th wheel. Looks like the two of you are enjoying rving again.
TH-cam just showed me your channel. So I knew here. Love your build! Beautiful camper.
You guys did a great job. The black and white makes it so bright and roomy looking. We have a Bigfoot truck camper and we love it. We live in Maryland and drove to Idaho to pick it up. The trip back was great.
I love your reno and the look is so cool. You have really, REALLY done a lot and it’s a great result. For the kitchen sink, I wonder if it would help to put metal strapping under the sink to really hold it up against the underside of the counter? The strapping has holes in it, so you could easily bend it and screw each end to the underside of the counter to give the sink, much better support and hold it in place much more rigidly.
Looks great!! Wonderful job!
I love it - well done! 👏👏
Loved your video!! Thank you for sharing!
I love it! I think it looks cheerful and like a mini home.
Hey glad to see you guys again!! You two did a great job on the Reno’s.
Thank you!
Fantastic job, guys! Thanks for sharing you labor of love.
Our pleasure, thank you 😊
Amazing, love what y’all have done together.❤
I understand the struggle of finding parts my husband and I have a 2006 pilgrim 32ft trailer and we are having a hard time finding parts for it love your truck camper safe travels!
It came out really nice. You guys did a great job! Good to see ya'll on the road again.
Thank you!
You guys did an amazing job. Your attention to detail is awesome. I love the black and white theme. Thank you for the great detailed walk through.
Thank you for the kind words!
Most people shut the lid of the toilet before flushing. Your dining booth trim matches your butcher block counters nicely as seen on this side of your camera 😊. Light and Love ❤
I agree! But whether lid up or lay down, I do not want to bend over flip a lever.
Ingenious idea for the TV to watch, very smart idea. Keep on moving forward, hope everything goes smoothly with your new home. 🙏❤️🙏
Thank you!
Love it!
I dont really care for a truck camper but you have so many awesome ideas for renovating an rv I just have to save it!! So smart!😊👍👍
That was crazy having a coat closet in your kitchen?🤔 Looks like it works way better for your pantry!!
Great job!! LOTS of work!!
This is such a beautifully well-done reno! Love the details! ❤
Thank you so much!
Amazing!!!🤗
Loved your video. So real. You are both terrific! Happy Trails.
Thanks so much!

Awesome job guys!
Thank you!
Great work on your small living space. It is so light and bright. Well done. Many innovative approaches.
Thank you so much!
OMG! I love this!!! Y'all have done a great job. Love the colors. Thanks for taking us along with you for this. Carmen is so cute.
Thank you so much!!
You are very welcome.
@@GetawayCouple
Fantastic job! 💛
Loved your video! I have seen the corners for the slides.on Amazon. Very inexpensive and nice too. Great job you guys! It really motivated me to do what I can here!
I think it is official; everyone agrees that you guys knocked it out of the park!
I’m curious about your budget, assuming you had one for the cost of the renovation. How did you all do?
Also, how does the truck handle the camper. Would like to maybe see some video of the outside, both truck and camper as the finished product.
You both are so awesome to watch and your sense of humor is palpable. Thank you for sharing.
Lastly … LOVE CARMEN SO MUCH. Her little cameos at the end are the icing on the cake!
Your renovation is as amazing as you both are! Safe Travels.
Aww thank you!
You did a GREAT job...it all looks great 👍 🇦🇺
love it!
Awesome job
Wow !!! Such a beautiful job absolutely..I love the idea of black and white decor and great job on the bathroom .
Thank you!! 😄
Go Hawks!!!! Looking forward to seeing your work on this camper!
GO HAWKS!!
Looks great you guys did a good job. 👍
I think it looks fabulous!
Thank you so much!
Nice Job!
Great video! Kudos!
Referring to the slide out frame, consider removing the wood frame and create a trim with the same black fabric you have on the dinette cushions. You could also add some batting to ‘forgive’ the minor differences. I think it would compliment your dinette and remedy the problem. Also will continue to tie in the black deco. Travel safe.
Oh my goodness. You guys did a fantastic job on your Reno. I just love it.
Thank you! 😊
I think you did an incredible job! I think it is nicer than the new ones and your craftsmanship will probably stand up longer because you cared enough to do it right. 👍🏻
Good job guys!
Thanks!!
Great Job!!!!! 🙌👍🙌
This was a very entertaining video. You two made me laugh out loud.
Glad you liked it!
what a great reno, beautiful and perfect for you
Thank you 😊
You guys did such a great job! I love your renovation ❤
Thank you!

Thank you!

You worked hard and you made it beautiful product. Thank you for sharing.
It’s a nice size camper. Great design love the black and white so crisp and clean! I’m a single senior I have land so looking to find the right fit to put on land and travel also!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this video! You did a fabulous job on your Reno & as always you two as a couple are inspiring! I can’t wait to see more adventures from your adventure mobile!
Thank you so much!! 🥰
