[@TravelswithDelaney]

Idea for a new series for your channel...."Flip this RV" . LOL You guys do such a great job of restoring campers. I can't even begin to imagine how hard this one was. Thank you for sharing the process you went through. Can't wait to see your new one in April!

[@carlaifera5254]

......yeah.......that couple is really special......💞

[@msdanaryan]

Yes!! Was thinking the same thing. RV Flippers, for sure! 😊

[@renaissancepoet]

I may lose my "man card" for saying this, but the brick wallpaper looks great! It really pops and gives the interior a warm cabin look.

[@carlaifera5254]

......okay.....we're gonna let you keep your 'man card'.......🤴

[@davidchase8815]

Incredible job you two. Watched you from the beginning to the end. You both are very talented and hard-working!

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Just saw your ad on Facebook. Very interested. I'm actually up in Pennsylvania I'll send you a pm on Facebook. Sweet KZbin channel, just subscribed!

[@SmallSpaceLiving]

Congratulations on being done. This was a lot of work for y’all. Look forward to seeing y’all on the road.

[@NewHorizons2020]

I'm looking for a good cleaner that will wash and shine up the outside of our Class A. We have a 40ft Class A so whatever we use to clean the outside and roof. Its going to take a lot of stuff.

[@NewHorizons2020]

You both do amazing work bringing a Camper back to life and making it look showroom new. Its so beautiful.

[@fasteddie51]

Wow! I do envy your talent and energy. You turned a sows ear into a silk purse.

[@RvNut]

It looks incredible! I can tell you guys really put a ton of time into this and whoever gets it is getting a great unit! Keep up the great videos! :)

[@cj2467]

If I didn’t already own one, I would buy yours! Amazing job! I think my hubby and I have pretty good fix-it up skills and are gluttons for punishment, ha....but this is really impressive👍! Going to be a really nice rig for some lucky buyer. Well done!

[@DreamingOutloudRVing]

Turned out beautiful guys!! Truck camping has to be so much fun. Thanks for sharing.

[@carlaifera5254]

......stellar.......✨

[@cdlady54_95]

I so love the two eyes/lights on the back door! Its saying 'who's there'! Great job. You both did a fantastic job. I followed your videos as you worked to bring this camper back to new life. I wish I was in a position to make an offer. But I know you and the new owner will be blessed immensely.

[@matteogomez3678]

Boy looks nice for an 2005 👌 are you selling it yet ? Happy Camping

[@RunawayRoses]

@Matteo Gomez we sold it a few weeks ago. Thanks for watching!

[@NewHorizons2020]

Now was that mirror already on the refrigerator? I couldn't remember if you said in beginning. If you added it. How did you put them on? I would love to take our wooden panels off and put metal on. So I can put magnets on it. And give it a Farmhouse Style look. Cause I'm getting wallpaper to put on the walls to change the look of the inside. Speaking of wallpaper what do you recommend to use that is simple and doesn't break the bank

[@grayeagleswolves]

I really Like your truck camper the Question is when will you go full time if you have this and its Paid for why would you pay for a sticks and bricks that you can't keep

[@freedomisntfree5573]

For future sharpie. WD-40 works awesome.

[@RunawayRoses]

We tried wd-40 and it wouldn't get it off. I think it had been on there for many years 😕. I had to let a rag sit with the cleaner rest on it for a few hours to get it off. Thankfully we finally got it off.

[@garyc6018]

Great job guys you rocked it!!!! Another great RV restoration

[@CrystalsPetsLife]

Great video. You did a great job

[@kphyfe]

Great to see y’all doing these videos. Can’t wait to see you on the road. The truck camper community is blessed to have y’all in it now. I have not got my channel up and running yet, really just haven’t had the push to get things moving. I did get a single video for the Southern States Truck Camping Blue Ridge Parkway Getaway up last year. Who knows maybe we will get together and that will push me into getting more videos out.

[@RunawayRoses]

Hi Kent, Thank you for the nice comments! Hopefully we will get to meet you on the road. We're hoping to make it to a truck camper rally sometime but not sure when or where yet. That would be great if we could help motivate you to get some videos out. They are fun to make even though it does take some work. If you've already made one then the second one will hopefully be a little easier. You just have to get the ball rolling. You know a lot more about truck campers than we do so it would be great to learn from your experience. Thanks for watching! ~ Todd

[@kphyfe]

Runaway Roses here’s my link kzbin.info

[@CarrieJo5916]

Hi Runaway Roses! How do I get in touch with you to buy?

[@RunawayRoses]

@Carrie Jo you can email us at [e-mail]. We are located just north of Atlanta, GA in Woodstock, GA. Thank you!

[@daviddurr9957]

Amazing job. I seem to remember you saying that you sold the Bigfoot for about the same cost as the purchase of the Northern Lite in one of the videos. Then all this work? Ugh..you sold us on ordering a Bigfoot. Cool channel, great videos, keep running Roses!

[@TravelsandTravails]

You've been looking at some truck campers. Are you going to Alaska?

[@RunawayRoses]

Maybe someday but not anytime real soon, unfortunately. We decided to try truck camping so that we can take our hobbies with us. We like to fish and go four Wheeling. Now we can just pull the trailer behind us with our hobbies attached 😁👍

[@billblecher9215]

Nice job guys is that for an 8-footer bed half ton truck can it fit

[@RunawayRoses]

It is for an 8 foot bed but it's to heavy for a half ton truck. It weights about 2700 lbs dry. Thanks for watching.

[@firesiderecords6443]

How much did you sell it for and initially purchase im looking at a 2005 10-2 this week

[@Fishinguy962]

What did you end up selling the camper for? I see on another post you paid $3000, obviously you had a lot of fix up/elbow grease into it. I am looking for a very similar truck camper so trying to figure out fair market price on northern lite of this era. Thanks a lot!

[@RunawayRoses]

@Kyle we sold it for $13,500. When we sold it, everything was in working order and it was super clean and looked great. Unlike when we first bought it 😁

[@Fishinguy962]

Runaway Roses how long did it take to sell? I am seeing a couple of 2005 10.2 around the 20k CAD mark (roughly 14k usd) I guess that’s pretty close to going rate.

[@RunawayRoses]

@Kyle just make sure you check any of the older ones for water damage especially if they have been stored outside. I think they can take some time to sell but we were fortunate to find a buyer within a couple of weeks after putting it up for sale.

[@Fishinguy962]

Runaway Roses thanks for the info, any particular problem areas to watch out for?

[@RunawayRoses]

@@Fishinguy962 I would say all areas in the basement. Look through the area where all of the plumbing is, around the bottom of the doors. You might even notice a mildew smell if there has been a leak for a while. Anywhere there is an opening is a chance for a leak. You could watch some of our videos that we did on the repairs to see where we found the rotten wood in ours.

[@ridingwiththeoldies477]

What a great job...y’all impress me with your talents....👍

[@RunawayRoses]

@Riding With the oldies thank you!! Thanks for watching, hope you guys are doing well. ~Carla

[@NewHorizons2020]

What sealant did you put on the roof? We are looking for something for our Class A. The roof is good shape. But we are looking for a cleaner that really cleans it good and put a sealant on it. Any suggestions? But nothing that breaks the bank

[@RunawayRoses]

Hi New Horizons, As for the surface on the roof of the camper we had it professionally polished and sealed with a high grade marine wax. The roof sealant around we used was Eternabond and Dicor lap sealant depending on the application around the vents and other features. Thanks for watching!

[@kyleduran1474]

@@RunawayRoses Hey guys! Thanks so much for providing all this useful information! Further to your response to New Horizons, can you elaborate on why you chose to use both the Eternabond and the Dicor Lap Sealant? Could you have only used one? I would like to redo the roof sealant on my 2009 9'6" and I'm trying to decide if I should Eternabond (or similar), Dicor Lap Sealant, or both.

[@joycemoses2411]

Super GREAT job!!!!

[@solodad]

As I mentionned before it's an awesome job, congrats, the future owner will be the winner of a best deal of the year. See you next time.

[@oldfieldslife6700]

Can you put a link to where you got your plexiglass mirror ?

[@RunawayRoses]

@Old Fields Life we got it at a place called Professional Plastics, here is what we ordered 0.125 THICK CLEAR EXTRUDED ACRYLIC FILM-MASKED MIRROR SHEET [Per Piece] Size: 32.5" X 14.125" @ +/- 0.125. The mirror itself wasn't expensive, it was the shipping. The mirror alone cost $50 but the shipping was $27. Thanks for watching!

[@oldfieldslife6700]

Runaway Roses thanks ! Wow that is expensive shipping

[@RunawayRoses]

@@oldfieldslife6700 Oh I forgot to include the link, here you go: www.professionalplastics.com/?Order%20Confirmation&cux=1700926 I would say find a place locally to you that has acrylic film masked mirror and have them cut it. It would probably be a whole lot cheaper. We had a place sort of close by but it was still 40 minutes away so we opted to pay more for it.

[@1turf32]

Great job

[@chrishorst6993]

All that work and now your getting rid of it. I ever get a Northern Lite I’m not getting rid of it

[@terryqueen3233]

You guys did a fantastic job it looks great! You did forget to mention the brick that you put along the wall I don't think it's real but it sure looks it. When I heard you say you lived in Atlanta, I used to live in Ellijay for 22 years. But now I'm in West Virginia helping to take care of my wife's mother and my wife things went downhill for both of them but we try to look at the best out of everything and you guys did a fantastic job. So have a great day stay safe and again great job!

[@RunawayRoses]

@Terry Queen thank you so much for your really nice comments! We appreciate that and appreciate you watching! Thanks, you stay safe too! Ellijay is beautiful, we haven't been to West Virginia camping but we hope to some day.

[@michaelfrench6197]

the tube storage is for the sewer hose

[@RunawayRoses]

@Michael French we thought so too at first but it's only like 6 or 7 inches deep, a hose would not fit in that compartment at all 🤔

[@michaelfrench6197]

@@RunawayRoses yeah, it is for one of the OLD SHORTY hoses.

[@RunawayRoses]

@@michaelfrench6197 okay, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying 😁👍

[@webbrowne2291]

Looks nice! You did a good job. If you are trying to sell, why not add the asking price? I would like to buy a good quality camper.

[@RunawayRoses]

Thank you! We haven't formally put it up for sale yet but will very soon. We are going to ask $13,900 when we sell it.

[@RVkidzTV]

Oh wow. What a fabulous job. We did a small renovation on our camper and still have some work to go, but doing it your self makes it even more special. Congrats on being finished.

[@RunawayRoses]

@RV KidzTV we agree, totally! It definitely makes it more special. ~Carla

[@rodneyhowell2703]

What are you asking for the camper? I have a 1 ton dually diesel, 8 ft bed, or my 2019 2500 6.4 hemi 6'4" bed, single wheel

[@RunawayRoses]

@Rodney Howell we will be asking $13,900 for it. You would need the 1 ton dually to haul it though. I would tell you the weight but I don't know it right of hand. I will have to ask Todd.

[@hddm3]

Great job guys! Amazing work

[@stuartstuart866]

It’s interesting to watch the refurbishment of the various RV’s that you have acquired. I’m curious to see what is next. Do you guys enjoy the refurbishment process or just experimenting, trying to find your dream RV?

[@RunawayRoses]

@Stuart Stuart hopefully we will be content and enjoy our 2019 Northern Lite 10-2 Truck camper for a long time but we wouldn't be opposed to having another project 😉. We have decided that it's kind of fun as long as we still have some time to camp. 👍

[@swisscamperronniecool5419]

Good job...now it is even better than new (They don't build them like that anymore, the quality is not what it used to be) How did you clean the headliner ? as I have those stains in my Bigfoot. It will sell fast 😃

[@RunawayRoses]

@Swisscamper Ronnie cool we used the generic Kroger brand of Oxiclean laundry spray, it worked pretty well.

[@gamedoutgamer]

Wait... 2005 wasn't THAT long ago! ;) Great job on the restoration.

[@RunawayRoses]

If you'll notice from a previous video that we did, we restored it from some bad water damage from previous owner not maintaining the seals.

[@tomaustin4526]

Beautiful 😊 Y’all did a great restoration on the truck camper 👍😊❤️ looks great thanks for sharing and safe travels from Birmingham Alabama 🌎🎥🎶😎🚌

[@RunawayRoses]

Thanks for the visit, and your nice comment!

[@AlbertoDelucca]

What is the price? What do I need, and F250 or F350? Where is located? Thanks!

[@RunawayRoses]

@Alberto Felucca we are going to put it on the market in the next couple of days and will be asking $13,900 for it. You will need a F350 or any one ton dually to haul it. We are located in Woodstock, GA. Email us at [e-mail] if you are interested. Thanks!!

[@texasproud3332]

Y’all have done great job !! I guess my obvious question why are y’all selling it and what do you hope the next one too be ?

[@RunawayRoses]

@TEX we got a 2019 Northern lite 10-2 with a different floor plan at a really great deal that was to good to pass up. We like the northern lites so much that I think we will stick with them for a while 😁.

[@agnesbiesty4197]

Love it . Great job.

[@RunawayRoses]

@Agnes Biesty thank you very much!

[@markgrillo180]

You liked this used one so much, your buying a new one just like it.....!

[@RunawayRoses]

@Mark Grillo yep, you got it! :-) We like the floor plan in our newer one much better though.

[@jimr3026]

Everything looks great. Without getting into financial details, will you be able to get return on the investment when you sell?

[@RunawayRoses]

@Jim R here's a little more info about our camper that you might find interesting therunawayroses.com/2020/01/buying-our-2005-northern-lite-10-2/. I think we'll definitely get a return on our investment. We all know sweat equity is worth a lot and we had around $5k wrapped up in it. We're going to ask $13,900 for it. Thank you for watching!

[@gpan62]

NOTE: "Polish your camper" really only means to clean you camper 😉🤣

[@RunawayRoses]

No, kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6POooyOnMqbrNU to polish camper means to spend 18 hours with a polisher and professional products like in video in link 👍

That small door that you thought was for storage is for your sewer pipe

[@RunawayRoses]

@Kevin Seckerson we did learn that it was for a "shorty" or something like that. Our sewer hose will not fit in this area as it is only 5" to 6" deep but I guess for some it might work. Thanks for watching!

[@juliasahota1706]

Loved this series. We just bought a 2015 Northern Lite 8’11”. Our purchase was exciting because it was in excellent condition. We are going to do the happy jack rebuild as you did as one is glitchy. Inside we added hypervent under the mattress. I’ll be refinishing the fridge racks and stove cover following Carlas instructions. We need to repair a couple of drawer glides but that’s about it. I may Install a curtain system across the cab over sleeping area because it doesn’t have one and it could be installed behind nicely. Found great drape systems at a marine supply store.

[@eyeswideopen1158]

Fantastic job 👍👍

[@jamesvelvet3612]

[@scallywag6768]

Great job you two. I just read all the comments and I see you intend to ask $13,900. That price is a huge bargain for that camper in that condition. You must have got it for a huge bargain.

[@RunawayRoses]

We did pretty good when we bought it but we would have paid more for it and been able to camp in it much sooner if it had been in much better shape 😁. We didn't get to camp as much as we would have liked to last summer because we were working on campers (totally our fault).
