Not so TINY HOME | Moving into a GRAND DESIGN Momentum 399TH

[@Gearjammer741]

My Lord the new rig is beautiful. One nugget of information that you may already know comes from my 30 yrs driving semi trucks. ALWAYS check your 5th wheel every time you are all away from the rig any length of time. There are some really mean people that will unhook you just to watch it come off. Love your videos. God bless.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

You're not the first to say this. It's unreal that this exisits.

[@akbychoice]

I’ve seen a few trailers on the tires or ground due to some sad peeps. With a semi I always set the trailer brakes, pull against the trailer then set the tractor brakes. Nobody is pulling the fifth wheel release.

[@akbychoice]

Keep Your Daydream put note on your dash to check the fifth wheel connection and write the height of the tallest part of your trailer.

[@PeeWeeHenson]

THAT WAS PART OF MY TRAINING MANY YEARS AGO, TOO. GOOD HABIT TO HAVE

[@mfortin9403]

I drive truck for a living here in Canada and I totally agree as even up here we are not safe from idiots. There needs to be a new design on fifth wheels where it can be locked from inside the rig and no way to unlock from the outside.

[@rumahbenavari5157]

Found you by accident. Wow what a great family! Dude you are so blessed to have that beautiful hard working wife and any man that can back up an apartment building that well is truly a keeper.

[@tikkin11]

[@tevol24hope]

Mark and Trish, You guys were the first full timers to inspire and teach me, and you continue to do so! Safe travels...

[@Side-Quest-Workshop]

Toy Ginger! Change is an opportunity for growth. I hope Grand Ginger has many more adventures ahead of her. It is a great rig. I very well may end up with one myself!

[@deltabravo1257]

I have to give you a shout out at 10:37 the way you turn your wheels to get set up for the direction of travel when you are getting ready for reverse. It's rare that people do that. Instead, they come to a complete stop and then turn the wheels, scrubbing the tires on the pavement when they aren't in motion.

[@sheilasieber5117]

I put all my kids' measurements on a length of wood trim. It moves when I do. Now, my grandkids' measurements are on the back of the same wood trim! My youngest kids are 21 and the oldest is 32. . . so that is how long I've been doing this! My kids and grandkids love looking at it after all these years. What memories!

[@dontask8979]

When it's time for the next generation, flip it end for end and start again. 👍😉

[@Firepoepoe]

Sheila Sieber great idea. We also use a 1x4 painted like a ruler and it gets attached to the wall so we can take it with us.

[@BlueEyesBill]

Ain’t it great being a Dad . Camping with your kids is the best. We have so much memories when we started camping 32 years ago. All the boys and my daughter are now married with their kids doing the same thing we did. I like your show. Keep up the great work

[@jensmiles4miles329]

What a long week it has been to wait to watch. We had a 45 foot 5th wheel and walkie talkies help with parking. We are getting a new one this fall can't wait.

[@troyr57]

Yes, a long wait. Lol.

[@johnnyharper3980]

Great looking rig and congratulations on it. I would also like to commend you on your backing skills. With that said I would also like to add a word of caution. it appears that this is your first tri-axle and even though the 450 can cut it to a 90 degree turn pretty easy you should really refrain from that if possible. If you note at the 14:40 point there is a substantial axle side stress turning that tight. I know there are times that it is really needed, but I do everything I can to keep my super tight turns to a minimum. Once again, great looking unit and happy camping..

[@daleturnley5882]

Awesome nothing better than the jitters of hooking up the first time. Congratulations.

[@fifteenfofifo]

@11:18 laughing at the size of the rig... priceless..."B.O.G." ..... Big 'Ol Ginger. Congrats KYD family!

[@Yo-lg4hv]

Before I even watch this, I’ve literally waited all week just to see what you guys bought! So excited! Now to watch...

[@jos6216]

Mark and Trish My wife and I are so so happy for You and Family!!!!! We are buying an RV very soon. Had RVed years ago when I raced with NHRA. Enjoyed it back then, even with all the towing and really only staying at the tracks for the most part. Loved the short part at the end with the Grandpa and Grand Son. We have our first Grand Baby on the way. We really look forward to taking our Grandchildren as well!!! God Bless Y’all and look forward to meeting you one day soon.

[@Auntievette17]

Beautiful!! I cheated & watched the video before my husband got home!! I couldn't wait!!🤪🥰

[@cbkb983]

I just did the same thing on my wife. LOL We're so bad 😜

[@ofcrlawless]

I felt all of the excitement that I'm sure you all had during this process. So incredibly happy for you guys!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Long time no talk. Good to hear from you.

[@runningonempty398]

Beautiful...that thing is massive. Congratulations. Gotta love Fort Wilderness. I know all of you enjoyed the frenzy. Safe and happy travels.

[@nvkidzmom]

OHHHH CONGRATULATIONS ON "TOY GINGER" ~ love the name !! Oh yes Marc it SO IS like moving an apartment lol!!! We just sold our 44 foot "apartment on wheels" downsized to the Solitude 310GK, we found too many places we wanted to go but just either couldn't fit in or tired of paying the "oversized rig" prices. I am REALLY REALLY excited to see where you travel too! :)

[@lovechristine6825]

Trish looks so tiny in Toy Ginger! Think you need to rename it to GG : Giant Ginger!!! Thanks for helping me keep my daydream ❤️

[@lisadennisorourke797]

Love Christine Big Toy Ginger BTG

[@1upgamez353]

Well it’s a toy hauler. Makes me wonder where they got the name toy from?

[@christinecrockford1654]

Hello long time since I made a comment lol The longer the rig the more easy it is to reverse. The reason for this is because the turm moves alot slower and more easy to correct. A top tip for people who drive something like this as you reverse, is if in your mirror and the rig moves out in that mirror steer to that mirror. In my younger days I was a female truck driver with very long rigs. love to u guys xx and your new rig is amazing.

[@lacrossed55]

Fantastic! Congrats. We just upgraded our pop up to a Grey Wolf travel trailer.

[@adventuresofjandk]

lacrossed55's Review Bar you will love the full enclosure. Congrats

[@mikesobek7644]

Congrats! Can’t wait to see a tour of the new rig

[@toddhoffmaster6057]

That is a beautiful combo. Looks like the exhaust pipe on the generator hangs very low and the sewer line hangs pretty low as well. Always before/after hitching check to make sure that the tailgate is in the down position and that it is closed before you attempt to move the whole unit out from the parked position. I have seen many bent tailgates in my travels. Trish is so small in the 5th wheel :)

[@texasxriverrat2111]

buy a Teflon washer to go between hitch and trailer king pin will stop a lot of grinding on sharp turns

[@KeepYourDaydream]

It was on there. The noises were coming from the suspension. Even Grand Ginger made those noises with the MORryde upgrade. I think its the U bolts turning.

[@jos6216]

You will want to find one made of Delrin (POM) Plastic. It is very abrasion resistant and self lubricants so no grease needed. Works great in this type of application. Have used a lot of it over the years. A lot easier to machine and work with than UHMW and the like. The self lubrication is very important.

[@SPEEDTER601]

Magnificent rig!!Those pipes hanging under the rig at 20:00 are going to be gone at some point, I bet. They hang so low! I just returned from a ten day trip with my own rig. Which would fit nicely inside your garage there.I could probably fit my Dutch Volvo 340 GL in there too. Thats my tow vehicle 😂😂🤣. My RV is an Eriba Puck 1975, Google it you get a kick out of that. I weathered a few storms over here in the Netherlands,they issued a code orange over here.😲Millions in damages. I got lucky, just a few tentpoles broken and a small rip in my tent.(I have a tent I can connect to the caravan (RV) so I have some more space.) Three by four meters 2.15M high.Had a great time dispite of that. Looking forward to the new season that is some Rig you guys got there. Would love to drive that! 😘

[@87Navygirl]

I've been waiting all week. So excited to see your new rig. Thanks for inspiring us. My wife and I bought a 2019 Heartland Northtrail 31QUBH this year and we love it!!

[@roseandmiron]

Wowwwww...I can not believe the change and the length of that rig... So 43ft. Plus your truck at probably 22 ft..give or take a few, your as big as a semi truck total... lol wow Hey, I am very happy for you guys , And thank you for everything you do you really put forth So much so much effort the two of you thank you I'm totally excited for the next episode have a safe trip guys

[@Skippy6897]

This is a dream of mine. Soon very very soon. We look forward to seeing you in OKC soon!

[@xstaytruexpositivex]

That last scene was awesome. Grand Ginger in the background one last time with Toy Ginger overtaking it and moving on.

[@Augiebracerofam]

Toy Ginger. Like naming a hundred pound dog tiny. Congratulations. As always thank you for sharing.

[@1upgamez353]

augie bracero well it’s a toy hauler. So I wonder where they got toy from?

[@davidswantek3673]

Congrats Marc and Trish! Welcome to the Fifth wheel club! Enjoy your new toy! Learn all you can about your fifth wheel. I've had mine for a year and a half now and still learning new things about it. One tip I have you is when you are doing your auto leveling while setting up, either do the whole process on battery power or hook up your main power then auto level. I had to learn the hard way: while my rig was auto leveling on battery power, I decided to plug it in and it messed up my auto leveling with errors. Then you have to hook back up to the truck and reset your auto leveling to work properly. Other than that, I love mine!! I have a Montana High country 305RL! I hope to travel the states very soon!

[@brentandersen7987]

You did well backing that beast, without being a professionally trained truck driver. Kudos!

[@keepyourdayjob5658]

My Wife and I are so happy for both of you’s and your young family. We both love your new Truck and Fifth Wheel and color colors are similarly ours. Our Mobile Suites DRV 44’ Nashville fifth wheels paint was special ordered and where yours is black ours is a dark grey with dark blue and lighter shades of grey. But of course a different design. We didn’t plan on towing our fifth wheel much at our age so we had sold our tow vehicle only to wish we hadn’t. We were so fortunate we found a 2012 Freightliner business class 4 wheel drive M2 Sport chassis- dark grey - it matches or fifth wheel great with only 26,790 original miles. Its Engine is a cat. 7.2L Engine with only 380 HP but 1,980 foot pounds of torque. It also has air over hydraulic disk brakes and air ride suspension. Can you tell I am very pleased LOL yes I sure am. My tow truck that I was going to tow our fifth wheel I had sold we had never actually taken delivery of it and someone purchased it site unseen for much more than we were going to pay for it because of such a time wait on them. My wife and I had sold our ranch - our boat and our company to live in our fifth wheel full time but now we are going to travel a bit. We have been married 51 years now and on our honeymoon we rented a pop up trailer and we have been camping or RVing sense. If we hadn’t had our company to run we would have hit the road with our 3 kids just like you are doing now. But we have 3 grandkids that can go with us now even though they live in Michigan we can always fly them into to a town near we will be at. I subscribed to your channel and my wife and I are so excited to watch a young couple do what we always dreamed of through your eyes and videos. Thank You so much oh and I am subbed to the channel with such a nice gentleman that helped guide you into your nice Ford F450. Cheers did I say we are happy also it’s never to late unless you lose your health or your six foot under.....

[@kevinbacon8716]

As a former trucker the "S" turn technique is a good one that I'm glad you've learned. My rule of thumb was when the driver door hit my back in spot I steer out then when my trailer axles hit the back in spot I steer back ,but obviously that's dependent on the space you have. I'm sure other people have their own methods.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Love the specific tip. I'll keep honing the method.

[@Nightsider-xr5lx]

Could also do the modified 45° set up to back. Easier to do then an ally back (90°).

[@dianemilligan7370]

What a beauty! Very exciting and so much fun learning about and enjoying a new rig. Looking forward to the next.

[@lifesloweddown1247]

Pretty sure I've seen each one of your videos. Hands down, this is the best one.

[@loulentz3107]

....And Another Season/Adventure Begins! Thanks so much for sharing your time, knowledge, what you've encountered/experienced as you travel; I look forward to tuning in to see what's ahead as you guys roll along! Just guessing, but I would think this new setup you have would be better suited for spaces out West. More open, larger areas, (think Utah, Wyoming, etc.) than in the Eastern part of the States...will stay tuned to see it all unfold! Thanks again KYD Peeps!!!

[@yorkbrick]

Dig the leveling block sliding.... I can soo relate. Great video guys! Very jealous.

[@lafayette1982]

That is one BIG toy! Oh my word. For some reason at the end when you were driving and all of a sudden the 'toy' stayed in the same direction and the truck turned it just seemed even bigger and like the truck wouldn't pull it. Seeing the truck used for pulling this makes you realise how people using them for every day life and just sticking some shopping in the back is totally overkill! Yay for the new deck and puppy hose outlet! So excited to see all the new things.

[@berniejagodzinski4030]

Nice rig guys 👌👍. I'm impressed with your driving Mark. Great job for a first time fifth wheel driver. Enjoy your new setup !

I've had a popup, then different sizes of TT and now a 5er. I love the 5er. To me it's easier to hookup. My hubby usually doesn't go with us, so my sister have to do all the setup and take down. Life has been better since we switched. I hope you guys love yours and Congrats.

Okay you guys !! I am as Excited as you are !!! What a RIG !! Great start on 5th Wheel maneuvering ,, Even the blind side !! Marc you did it like a PRO ! I have been sitting on the edge of my chair waiting to see Momentum 399TH. It is Beautiful !! But, not as beautiful as you all ! Have a FUN and Safe trip.. Stay Healthy and Happy...

[@KeepYourDaydream]

You're way too kind. You can stay :)

[@tomd.benjamin762]

We left on vacation Saturday, which was a driving day as was today. The whole time I was driving I was anxiously awaiting this video to see the new rig - wow, not messing around! Beautiful truck & TH!

[@allens7476]

Wow! I've been waiting all week to see the new rig. It's big! The short turns are great, but hard on the tires since most are dragging sideways. (See at 14:30) I think whoever bought your old trailer will get a great rig! I do like Grand Designs. I remember moving from one MH to another, side by side. It took all day! Too much stuff. My advice to anyone buying from a dealer? Never trade in your old unit unless you have too much money. The fact you're meeting the new buyer shows your pride in ownership! One day, a FIAT class B/C; the next day, a 40' triple axle starship!

[@chuckborghoff8443]

Been waiting for this one. Good luck!

[@donwat91]

I understood , what you were talking about when getting ready to back . I always turn the truck to get the rear of the trailer in the direction you're backing. That makes easier to back. I hope thats what you were talking about pointing the nose of your truck. It's a beautiful rigg the two of you have.

[@jacklandry8792]

Instead of hitting “retract all” before hitching, hit the “hitch heights button. The back 4 jacks will retract and the front two will raise to the last height of your truck. After you are hitched, then use the “retract all” button to pick up the front jacks. The guys that do the walk throughs don’t really have a clue how these rv’s work. I bought a similar Momentum toy hauler from an Rv dealer in a different state and was given the same incorrect information about operating the jack system

[@patrickspringer3068]

Congrats on the new rigs, Now that you have a 5th trailer one very important thing to watch out for when pulling in or out or making turns is the TAIL SWING ( the back of trailer from back axle swings out) I am a truck driver 25 years otr I hit and dragged a pickup that was parked on the right side and when I made the left turn the tail a trailer scraped along the side of truck the hooked the cab of it and pulled it 10 feet before letting go I didn’t even feel it repair cost to pickup was 4 thousand. So be careful of that and keep it in your mind of it. In your video you can see it from the back. Safe Travels to y’all enjoy your new rigs.

[@RK_HVAC]

Wow. The new rig is amazing. You all inspired my family to start RVing. We watch all your episodes together. Thanks for the nudge we needed to start.

[@Lmjfc]

You are my favourite you tube family, I love how you come across as a normal family with teenage kids, so many “you tubers” edit their videos to make them look “perfect”, you don’t do that, you have two teenage boys and of course they would rather play video games than help move RV.

[@deseandudley281]

Absolutely love the new rig and the beautiful fifth wheel.. congrats mark and trish... enjoy! Next will be a beautiful class a motorhome once the kids are out! Woohoo.. loving the progression on the channel... you guys are truly living your best! I agree with others as well, make sure you get a trucker gps now that your height and length are much greater...

[@anthonyshriner4362]

You guys have to be the coolest family out there. I love watching all the videos

[@ebels3]

I knew as soon as I saw you looking at dualies that you were going to get a fifth wheel. Congrats.

[@dlschnell9326]

Last weekend we were at a state park in Mi and were parked right next to your rig! Well not YOUR YOUR new rig but an identical one! We talked to the owners a few times and they absolutely love their rig, they love it so much that they sold everything they had and now live in it full time! We were camping for the first time in our new rig and well I have to say it was rather funny, I would say Trish said this then hubby would say Mark said this or that and then do you remember that episode where they ........OH YEAH.. So we have decided to name our rig MarknTrish because no matter where we go you are right there with us! Now we can't wait for someone to ask...are you MarknTrish? lol. Great Rig you guys!

[@TheHungryCubanAdventures]

Marc you handled that big boy like it was nothing. Great job. Love the new rig. 👍

[@pauls1572]

Good job with your backing! I'm a truck driver, and I'm going to share some wisdom that a trucker gave me when I first started. He had been a trucker longer than I've been alive. Backing up is one of the most dangerous things you can do in a truck (or a rig like you have). Take your time, go slow, and to hell with everyone else. Get out and look as often as you need. Don't worry about holding people up. Also, be sure to take as much room turning as you need. That new rig is going to off track differently than your old one. Love your videos, and the new rig is beautiful. Don't get lost in there looking for the bathroom, lol😉😂

[@SwannBus]

Congratulations, beautiful setup for a beautiful family. Stay blessed!

[@wgb_jd]

I have to admit, I felt pangs of jealously and even anger at first! Then I remembered the 11th Commandment: thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's rig. By the end of the video I was cool with the idea of you guys having a rig bigger than Willie Nelson's tour bus.. You just added a whole new dimension of interest to your channel. Can't wait for the next video!

[@myleshansel7950]

Congrat's, always do a tug test before driving off. Awesome looking rig

[@hosspokertilt1]

Myles Hansel tug test?

[@myleshansel7950]

@@hosspokertilt1 before pulling the landing gear all the way up, you bring them up a few inches and then apply trailer brakes and tug to make sure you're hitch is locked.

[@ottyfields]

You will love the way a 5th wheel tows and backs up. It's the only way to travel. Our garage is usually full of kayaks (kids are going), golf cart (family), or the Harley (Me & my Bride get away). Looking forward to more videos and upgrades.

I replaced the OE F250 bed with a flatbed....love it

[@michaelscott7482]

I'm not even into RV'ing, but I learn soooo much on this channel. Just smashed the up button, more plz.

[@pigdogg95]

I'm a car hauler and I move RVs on the side. I don't know if you've had any comments about this but I would grab a truck GPS where you can enter your height weight and length. That way it's better safe than sorry when traveling. That's a beauty rig I just moved one of those a few weeks back. Good luck I love the videos.

[@SomeTechGuy666]

Jacknife turns are awesome with a 5er... until you walk a tire off the rim from too much side pressure. Just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should. A little common sense goes a long way. Tall 5ers are famous for catching trees. Your helper should have a radio and be in contact with you the entire time you are backing up. You are blind back there. You need her eyes.

[@atozrecovery518]

Your not going to get a response. Your comment wasn't supporting enough. But very true on your comment. They will learn the hard way about tire flex.

[@Luv2Trk1]

Yep. Skidding those tires like that is not good at all! First thing I learned 25 years ago about backing and pulling out in an 18 wheeler. Never slide the tires. They should always be rolling or you will flat spot them. Especially with 45,000 on the trailer.

[@jimsjacob]

Everyone has a phone. Use them. Radios are passé

I agree...make them give you products to demonstrate, and deal codes and scan box so you can get a commission for purchasers...and titles to rigs so u can sell them when finished...I bought my grand design momentum 399TH and got hooked on your channel all in same episode. Was looking at the momentum and keystone fusion but after seeing your organizational episode and walk through I was sold....extra bonus has been staying on to your channel and subscribing and starting back at the first episodes and working forward...God y'all were young then and the kids were twirps....what 6 years will do....crazy huh

I'm headed to Ft. Wilderness in a week. I know it is a little pricey but it is one of the nicer campgrounds I have visited. We just transitioned from a bunkhouse to a couples trailer. This will be our first vacation in many years without my boys. I was also a little sad when I sold my trailer. I have a lot of good memories of many trips all over the country. If you are still in KY, the Red River Gorge area is a wonderful place to hike. It is about an hour east of Lexington.

Best of luck and enjoyment with the new rig. Travel safe and watch the height. Put a sticker on the dash with the measurement as a consent reminder.

I passed an aircraft carrier at sea once it was a massive ship, that's what it will be like passing you guys, a small village going down the highway. Congratulations! beautiful rig....

Love the “be aware of yourself and the rig” mom talk.

[@RyanMarcyesOutdoors]

That was pretty awesome!!! Very stoked for your family. So I heard you say you want to experience different rigs. Do you thing you guys would be interested in doing a overlanding rig season next? And getting a little bit more off the grid. Since you like Fords as much I do, it would be a perfect time to see what the new Bronco will do. I figure a roof top tent on the vehicle and one on a pull behind. Kind of like what “Epic Family Road Trip” picked up. I just think you can give a great Day Dream SPIN to this growing lifestyle

Must be nice to afford a new truck and a new rig!!! Cabin may be doing good.

Nice :) If you decide to turn your "Learn Mode" in the direction of hitches, check out the Anderson Hitches. We swapped out our Reese 16K Titan for the Anderson Hitch. Such a smooth ride. We pull our Cedar Creek 29IK with our F350 which also has the puck system fitted. The hitch lifts in and out really easily and only weighs 35lbs. Copes with 4,500lbs tongue weight, but might not pull your trailer weight. Congrats on the truck ! Much to my wife's amusement, I spent the last few seasons shouting at the TV because you bought an F250 instead of the F350, and then found you were limited on weight when it came to the Grand Ginger purchase. We were tempted by the F450 for the DRW and the turning radius, but we do not full-time, so we went for the convenience and the ride of the F350 SRW, and avoided those 19.5" commercial tires. Anyway, glad you got a proper truck now ! :) If you are anywhere near Kananaskis Country, Alberta, Canada in winter 2019/2020, we'll be there !

Dam did you win the lottery, that's a 90 grand truck by itself. My old 2002 7.3 couldn't even buy the seats out of that truck .

[@cherylv.1814]

That's what I thought too! That's an expensive setup right there... would hate to see the monthly payments and insurance I tell ya geez!

[@alanburke4699]

I agree where all the money come from , normal person couldn’t even begin to afford something like that .

[@richardkoch8752]

@@alanburke4699 Fully agree. Sad thing is the boys are seeing life as good as it gets. They might expect the same when they head out on their own. Could be setting them up for a hard lesson. Keeping your daydream is one thing...........being able to do it is a whole different story. I was always told "be careful what you wish for.........it might come true" I like many literally broke my back and body all my life to provide for my family. Just their truck would be a unrealistic daydream for most of us.

@JJAJFOREVER Continuously switching from truck to truck to truck, RV with a killer solar system that can't be recouped, to a exorbitant toy hauler. Between RV's, mods and trucks they lose more in depreciation than a lot of people make in a year. Next year will probably be a Tiffin or Newell DP??? Have lived too long, seen too much, not to know they might be headed down a shiny dark road. I'm old school enough to know you invest in a stick built home that appreciates instead of new shiny toys that only depreciate. O'kay........I'll get off my horse now ;) I wish them well but worried how this all might end.

[@richardkoch8752]

@JJAJFOREVER the sad thing is they will probably stick 8K in solar and lithium and another 5K in misc. mods and next year it will only be worth 70K. A new RV is in our future (someday when wife finally retires) but our median priced home is paid for along with her Highlander and my Tundra. We are thinking either a new 30K'ish Grand Design Imagine or a Winnie Minnie Plus.........only if we can afford to pay cash for it. I was raised if you can't pay cash for a luxury item.............you don't need it: save until you can buy out right. Going to Shows the general topic of salesmen and the buying public is "it's only this much per month" .....no thank you .
