The new owners should feel really good about getting your "used" rig. You took great care of it while it was yours, made some great mods......AND, you cleaned and repaired it better than any detailer or dealer would have before reselling. NICE!

[@lorih4392]

The amount of work you put into preparing the rv to be sold says alot about what kind of people you are. It's really good to see you guys. We've been camping (weekend warriors). For over 25 years. We've had 5 campers. You always miss the old ones but love the new one. I can't wait to see how your camping trip might be different.Thanks for sharing.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thanks, Lori! We're excited for the next chapter.

[@diannepatton7209]

Wow! What a great job you both are doing! The new owners hopefully will appreciate all your hard work cleaning and repairing. Have fun on your new adventures!

[@da7heaven]

Glad to see another video out with my favorite Getaway Couple! Looking forward to your future adventures. Just please remember to care for yourselves and each other before your KZbin audience. Best wishes to you two! ❤

[@aprilfensom6412]

Ready for your next chapter!

[@Cometman2007]

So glad to see you both making videos again. We have missed you!! Tim and Bev

[@GetawayCouple]

Thanks so much! We’re glad to be back!

[@alanradnai7702]

Happy Sunday, great job getting your trailer ready to sell, new owners will be grateful! Wishing you guys all the best and look forward to all the new adventures!!

[@AB-so3jv]

Congrats on your sale and now moving on to a new chapter!!! Wishing you the best!!!

[@williambranham6249]

It’s good to see you’re doing a major cleaning/repair before selling. Believe you me there will be less for the buyers to point out as far as asking for a reduction in price. No one has ever said your RV is too clean. We just can’t buy it. I sold an RV 2 years ago and my neighbor wanted to know why I was spending so much time cleaning, polishing and waxing. I sold it for more than I paid for it 2 years before. You folks are great.

[@patriciapentz686]

So glad you're back!!! Missed you!!! Looking forward to your next chapter!!! ☺☺

[@blborto5989]

Best of wishes to you both! Thank you for the update and glad you are feeling good about things again! We look forward to your updates 😍.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you!

[@sherriweber7105]

You both did a great a job on cleaning the Rv. You both were really going good at cleaning it up and fixing it. Sorry you got the wrong refrigerator door but glad you found one on Amazon that fits. Glad you got your Rv sold. It’s good that you are going to make a new chapter with something new. One door closes another one opens. Or is it a window I can’t remember? But I’m happy for you both and liking to go on more adventures with you. I have been following you now for two out of those 5 years and I love it. It’s almost been 3 already. I can’t wait to watch more. Looking forward to it. Enjoy your week and see you soon!

[@christinetaylor5726]

Loved the video. I'm so glad y'all are back 💗

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you!! Glad to be back.

[@virginialemm864]

So GOOD to see an RV video by you! Ya KNOW…!!! You are cleaning your fifth wheel CLEANER than the RV dealerships do when they are on display on the lot! It’s amazing the lack of quality control from the assembly line… loose nails everywhere; sawdust under the seat cushions storage space and cabinets; crooked drawer pulls; unevenly hung cabinet doors…the list goes on and on! Whoever buys it will get their “new” RV cleaner than if they got it at the local (or distant) dealer! Kudos to you!

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

Glad to see you back tubin'

[@sandyruther2936]

Good to see you back. I missed you. I did catch your update video. The new owners will appreciate the effort you are putting into cleaning. We purchased a used rv that was spotless. It made more sense to buy the used one over the new. Especially when it was clean and well maintained.

[@lisataylor584]

Welcome back! Glad to see you and will look forward to seeing more videos as time will allow.

[@lorilust6150]

You did a great job cleaning the fig up. When we sold our first 5th wheel, it was bittersweet.

[@davelauraphillips8814]

We decided long ago that if we get a RV that glass shower doors were gonna go. Ther are heavy and the shower doors plus the tracks are a pain to keep clean.

[@jaysonstebbins2539]

Omg no way guys! I'm excited to see what's next! I worked on grand design alot and I started following you guys at the start! Good luck hope to see you more !

[@renelambert552]

My husband slipped off the steps too! I bought him gripper socks as a joke but he wore them. He was banged up from head to toe. We also broke the lids to the bottom drawers on the frig. But, I like them open better.

[@ulugo70119]

WOW - you guys don’t mess around. The new owners are getting an even better than NEW RV! I’ve missed you guys … good to see you back and cannot wait to see what you all come up with next! Good luck to you.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you! Yes, we wanted to have it looking fab for the next owners!

[@TonyTorres-jj8ku]

The RV is looking very nice!

[@cathyfrint8860]

Thank you for this video! It really helped me decide on the vacuum! We were so close to buying the shark. Your rig looks like new!!

[@GetawayCouple]

Glad it was helpful! Dyson is definitely the better option :)

[@jolenecreech7648]

I believe using Goo-Gone on steps will only make them more slippery.

[@donaldcollins8551]

Good to have you back, missed you.

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you! We’re glad to be back 😄

[@karenr1472]

So true “This is a good decision for now and the future is open”. Wishing you guys the best!

[@GetawayCouple]

Thanks so much!

[@BrazenBrits]

You had us at Bradley nail gun! Good times!!!

[@lorionodi879]

Glad to see you back..missed your videos

[@GetawayCouple]

Thanks! Glad to be back 😄

[@andreatruelove9693]

Well now you leave and y’all are the ones I watched that got me into this mess. I have a love / hate relationship with rv life. Started great in 2019. Covid sucked but we made it thru. Now our 2019 comes with daily issues and prices make it not so fun anymore.

[@RVLIVINGLIFE]

Yay!! Your back!!!😃😃😃

[@GetawayCouple]

We are!!

[@fvsmith]

I wish y’all were doing this 12 months from now. That’s when ‘my plan’ starts.

[@Modfrkt_75]

Missed you guys and I love the tshirt weekend’s coffee and camping. I want one!

[@GetawayCouple]

Thanks! We’re glad to be back. And you can get the shirt in our store! Here’s the link: store.getawaycouple.com/collections/camping-t-shirts/products/short-sleeve-unisex-t-shirt

[@Modfrkt_75]

@@GetawayCouple I ordered one. Thanks so much!

[@KZ-xj4tt]

Missed you guys. ❤️

[@rob1484]

That's a nice rig. Now that your back I've got to wonder what you're renovating. I will admit that after 4 years in a GD Reflection, I do get get it. Been travelling for work for 10 years, with 4 in an RV. The newness of travel and RV ownership definitely does wear off.

[@amypletcher4411]

Hi guys! Other item you can use to clean with is The Pink Stuff!! I works FANTASTIC on stainless sinks, glass top stoves, plastic shower surrounds. I have not tested on our stainless refrigerator in our RV though. There is a problem with rust streaks, probably them previous owner using a non-safe cleaner. I'm going to look into that if it works and if not. How would I get a replacement door for a 12v RV refrigerator? It looks like a normal house size but on a smaller scale. Anyway, thanks for coming back!!! Watched your video more than once last week 😜😍😂!!

[@pamb2868]

I hope you but another rig and get back out there. I think with Covid kid of under control in places. It might be safe.I would love to see you both come back.

[@GetawayCouple]

We do have another rig already! We explained an update in the video before this one. You can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJqqgaGObZWBkJo

[@celiagraham5920]

We bought our rig model because I liked yours when we watched your videos. Grand Design has stopped making this model now which makes me very sad because I love it.

[@ayranmcintosh]

Glad to see you back on the air. Do you have the Amazon part number for the replacement bin lids?

[@GetawayCouple]

So this is the one we bought, except it looks like the price fluctuates. We got it for $60 and it looks almost double that right now. I’d keep an eye on it and snag it when it lowers again 😄 amzn.to/3OyWwRo

[@ayranmcintosh]

@@GetawayCouple Thank you so much. I think I'll live without a lid for that price.😵‍💫

[@Erical65]

It seems ironic…we went from a P/U camper to a GD 5er in ‘20 and have been following you guys for awhile. Now you’re going the opposite way. I look forward to your future videos and camper adventures. You can certainly get into places with a P/U camper that you’d never consider with a big trailer. Good Luck and Great Adventures.

[@beechbaby2]

I have fallen 5-6 times on our steps. We added carpet as well.

[@GetawayCouple]

Sorry to hear that! Glad you added carpet too. Those falls HURT.

[@dodyhopper4394]

What did you use on the night stands to cover the scratches? Our GD has a darker wood flat finish that is wearing off. My wife has tried everything and nothing seems to work .

[@GetawayCouple]

Jason’s side was so bad because he always had his water bottle over there! We used a stain from Home Depot to make it look a bit better but we also called it out as a cosmetic issue when we listed it for sale.

[@williamboyer8861]

Thanks guys!!🥰 question...where did you get the lug nut replacement from? 😄

[@GetawayCouple]

We got them from eTrailer!

[@williamboyer8861]

@@GetawayCouple thank you!😁

[@markschultz926]

Been watching the getaway couple for a few years it really makes me sad that you're leaving the RV way of life you're a great couple I wish you nothing but the best very sad to see you go

[@GetawayCouple]

Aww we’ll we’re not really leaving! We’re currently renovating a truck camper and have many more adventures planned!

[@talltom9033]

I need the same Norcold door could you give a link to where you got one. Thank you

[@GetawayCouple]

Here you go! amzn.to/3P54kL4 This is the left hand door so just make sure you're ordering the correct side :)

[@Mudford63]

I think you can buy just the door panel.

[@GetawayCouple]

You can buy the panel for the door but not for the stainless steel version. It comes with the panel installed and it was not removable/replaceable.

[@bradnoel5053]

Are your Battle Born batteries worn out?

[@Geriatricgypsies82]

do you guys still have your pup

[@sarahmoviereviewer4109]

how can you not slip in the rv while wearing slippers? my floors are slick

[@williambranham6249]

This suggestion may be too late but any scratches on furniture can be fixed with Kiwi shoe polish. Wal mart has it. It’s a wax Simply rub it into scratch, let dry and buff lightly. May require 2 applications. Super glue and double sided carpet tape are great easy fixes for reattaching things .

[@GetawayCouple]

Good to know! We actually found wood stain pens at Home Depot that did the trick on any scratches.

[@theresatom4807]

❤️❤️❤️

[@timberk5]

So happy to watch your videos again 😊

[@GetawayCouple]

Thank you! :)

[@kenpichelmann3861]

Did I miss something, are you guys giving up the mobile life style or purchasing a new RV?

[@GetawayCouple]

Hi Ken! We posted an update video last week that explains everything :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJqqgaGObZWBkJo

Do you guys want children in the future?
