We have a Class C motorhome, many of your videos have given us ideas on how to improve our camping experience. The instantpot is an example. We both love cheesecake, on our next camp out, we will try making for the first time. Your organization of clothing and camper supplies is another. We can relate when it comes to bringing a lot more than you need to camp. We constantly over pack. Again thank you for providing an outlet during these challenging times. We both look forward to your up coming videos. Take care.

I like that the compartments all zip and stuff isn’t poking out & in the way. I can’t seem to locate that one. One other thought, I’m a needle felter and I have been working out how to fit my stuff in, so I can do my art while traveling, just as you have a lot of gear as a videographer. Mine is light weight, though! I thought an episode idea could be van life for artists on the road. It might be fun to see what people are creating as they travel.❤

County I am in, Flathead, has 64 cases, 0 new cases. Total cases, 14. Total recovered 48. Total deaths, 2. I wear my mask in stores, social distance, avoid big groups, and wash/sanitize my hands a lot.....No, I did not get any extra cables and I missed that in your video so will need to go back and watch it again. As soon as I opened it I was like, I’m missing cables I believe. Licensed FAA airframe and power plant mechanic, so no rings and definitely take off the watch when around electrical. I’m here until I lend of August for now, could stay longer, but too early to make that decision.

Thanks for sharing! Here’s some tips on where we found extra space in our Ascent: 1. We removed the carpeted panel beside the rear battery box, it’s just the charger in there and it has its own cooling fan. 2. In the rear largest upper cabinet the curved plastic covers are wasting a lot of space in behind so I’m about to replace them with 1/8 white ABS plastic sheets (can be cut with scissors). 3. Below the 3 kitchen drawers is a huge empty space; the front panel has clips and pops off when pulled, and then unscrew the cover panels in behind(they are not structural) - I added another drawer handle so it looks like a 4th drawer and because there are water lines in there it’s a great spot to put laundry. 4. The passenger side ottoman, below carpeted panel can be easily made into a huge hidden compartment: I slightly relocated the inverter electrical box at the back, and trimmed 1 inch of wood off the panel at the rear so it can be pulled up by hand(leaving the carpet in place to hide the cut) Lots of room under there.

Back then, we carried a small cooler with ice because the 3 way fridge that came with our van struggled to keep foods cold enough.

I still use the red tray because it fits perfectly between the sofa and ottoman. Wish I could find another one with the same dimensions.

For those who already wear glasses, another great sunglass option is called a fit-over. I like the Cocoons brand, but there are less expensive ones. Cocoons use prescription quality lenses, but they fit over your existing glasses be they prescription or readers. I also like that they block light from coming in the side or top. You can buy them at Bass Pro (limited choices), some optical labs, or order them online. If you order online, I recommend at least selecting the style, color, and fit on the manufacturer's website because you need to measure your glasses for the correct fit.

How is the new cup holder working out? I was hoping to see a video about the installation.
@FromShetoMe
@FromShetoMe 4 жыл бұрын
I'll show it in next week's video. There really isn't any "installation." We just slipped it in and one of the cups rests in the Mercedes cup holder. Although it does come with two bits you're supposed to put somewhere, I couldn't figure it out. Bottom line, I really like the cup holder. But to swivel the front seat, without removing the cupholder, the seat has to be in just the right spot. I'll demonstrate next week.

I purchased the “seconds” 1/2 priced cup holder after seeing your video and had to put the cups in the freezer to shrink them enough to slide into the circle cut outs. The plugs they send you are to put in the holes you drill into the insert you pull out. I thought I could get away with just inserting it into the pocket in the dash but my husband said it fell out while he was driving it. Good thing he didn’t have anything in the cup holders. CaveVan.com has install videos on KZbin if you search CaveVan cup holder install.

Lookup pocketplus.com it’s an extra pocket for your phone that you can put it in your pocket but it has a strap with a magnet that goes inside your pocket and then you have a strap that holds the pocket on the outside of your front pocket for your jeans and it moves the pocket down to your jeans instead of your belt it doesn’t get in the way of the seatbelt when you’re driving
