RV NEWBIE: Essential Gear & Nice NOT to Haves!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

How could I have forgotten to mention a pressure regulator? This belong's with the essential items: amzn.to/3tHSheV

[@lingoss5328]

Thank you! My husband and I were just talking about needing to get one of these because we’re heading to a campground in May that has high water pressure. Thank you for the link!

[@jamesstark1750]

I thought the New Airstream had one built in?

[@KeepYourDaydream]

@@jamesstark1750 Good point. It does... and I forgot to mention that too! ;)

[@josephrobichaud5198]

Here, hold my beer I do not need a stinking check list, as I drive off forgetting to retract the stabilizers or tongue jack all the way and bend the crap out of them. :) I've driven off and left my door mat, driven right over my chocks and left them behind. Left the camper door keys or cell phone on the rear bumper on the truck. But I'm a newbee and have only been camping for 50 plus years. :)

[@richgollihur9585]

I LOVED the ending! it was so great to look back through the years. I have learned so much from you guys. I feel like you are some of my best-friends, and it is great to watch how far we have come. Thanks for all of the great work and super videos.

[@diverm2371]

Well said

[@LiveTomorrowNow]

We look forward to your weekly videos!! Always entertaining and you guys always have great tips of things that really happen!! Happy travels and hope to meet you all on the road!!❤

[@lingoss5328]

…and the Academy Award goes to….Marc Leach for outstanding cinematography and editing!!!! Wow! Your videos are not only impeccably thought-out and “chock” full of good advice, but they are so visually pleasing! Thank you for giving us something to look forward to every Sunday night!

[@justjourneys2806]

I thought they said they paid someone to edit?

[@KiloMike80]

And the kids make incredible B reel actors.

[@jakubgruszczynski4069]

X-chock wheel stabilizer is meant to be used after the tires on your RV have cooled off. They will contract when parked and expand when driving. Wait a bit after arrival and then install the x-choke. Or if you have to install the x-choke right away, make sure to get back to it after a certain period of time and double check and expand the x-choke.

[@shanedenmark5536]

That is such a good point that I would have never thought of. Thank you!

[@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123]

This was great information but that ending got me all emotional 😭 Crazy how a few years makes such a huge difference in a kids life ! It’s been fun watching your kids grow up and spread their wings, but can you keep Caleb at “home” 😘 Safe travels Blessings

[@mikesalois3028]

"I'm gonna have to change my skin" ..God,I'm still laughing from the first time he said that.

[@moore_2_explore]

coming up on our 2 yr anniversary of life on the road and watching the last 5 minutes of this video was wonderful! It called to mind how instrumental you all were in our decision to go for it and we thank you. Start Small Start Now.....yes!

[@vocal_jay]

Luckily "the Wifi is going strong!" Best Line

[@ronrichards236]

Into our 3rd year part time. KYD was the first videos we started with. Got us started right and we really appreciate them

[@healthcoachrene7351]

Trish giggling as she films and is remembering Mark saying "SHOES?! I am going to have to change my skin!" 😄😄😄 And I just love seeing Cable "reruns"!

[@arlenenolte8475]

A while back you inspired me to "start where you are". I had a Toyota Camry - so I filled it with camping gear and set out to solo camp. I am ADDICTED to camping now and am planning my next step - a pop up camper. Thank you so much for inspiring me!

[@billtodd999]

On one Florida vaca all went great, then on the way back home....i was towing my new camper with SUV and my Sindy was following in the truck towing my brand new boat. At a stop to put air in SUV tires, Sindy was spooked by another driver as she was coming round the back of my camper and hit the new camper with the brand new boat. She was terrified, and then cried because I didn't yell or be mean. She said her ex husband would have and been mean. I explained it had already happened and couldn't be undone, and it was insured, why would I make it worse by damaging her. It's not what happens as much as how we handle it. People are more important than things.

[@Adendum82]

We're Canadian RV newbies! We're going to be stationary for the next 8-12 mths, but then we hope to park our destination RV at a different location each year...well, each spring/summer/fall camping season. I'm learning a lot and I can't get enough ❤ The saying you're looking for is... "It's better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it." I'll do my best avoid "poopsies" 😂

[@adkotahajesban]

The ending of this video was phenomenal. We have four kids. Fifteen all the way down to twins that are five. My wife and I have been trying to decide if purchasing a camper is a wise decision. I've watched several of your videos trying to learn what to have, what to do, and what to expect. This was an epic culmination of the wonderful memories your family has created. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experiences.

[@carolkelley5526]

Another tip if you are not full timing is to stock the kitchen, linens, and bathroom stuff with stuff dedicated to the camper. It can be cheap or used stuff, but having to pull stuff from your house every trip and back to the house after every trip is really annoying, and you will forget stuff!! Another thing is I've found the portable surge/EMS more useful. If you pull into a campsite and hookup and have a permanently installed surge, and the power pole is bad, then you have to move the trailer to try another site. If you have a portable, you can just walk over to another empty site and test before moving the trailer. (It has taken me four tries once to find a good power pole).

[@brandyroberts4127]

I loved the ending. I've been here since the first video/first tire moment with that guardian angel and I recognized every single moment along the way and Im thankful y'all have shared your memories with us. Can't wait to see what this upcoming season has in store for everyone. 🥰

[@Luv2camp316]

Will add a “nice to have” tool. 3 foot breaker bar, extension and socket for removing trailer tire lugs. Not sure about others but my lugs have a 140 to 150 pound torque specification. A breaker bar makes it vastly easier to remove the lugs as opposed to the car wrench shown here. Totally worth the investment the first time you need it.

[@mikkistudley2373]

Oh my gosh! That ending! Bring out the tissues! So amazing to see your kids grow into such amazing adults! xo

[@harryduncan6699]

Small freezer, ice cube trays wouldn’t freeze between meals, so after 30 years of camping, spent less than$100 on a portable ice maker. Great addition…..makes ice in 8 minutes.

[@VinnyDos]

FYI you do NOT inflate to max cold on the tires. You go according to what EACH specific rig recommends. Tires A are sold for many different models and manufacturers

[@dgriesdale]

Hi Mark and Trish. This video is absolutely spot on. I agree entirely that you should just start with the essentials. Otherwise you just end up focusing on ‘what you think you need’ and not the experience. As an aside, you inspired us to buy an RV after being in a tent trailer for a few years. Looking back, we were anxious about taking the leap and kept waiting for the ‘perfect’ setup. But thanks to your videos, we took that step and have now spent several summers in our RV. Thank you.

[@1380beagle]

The levelmate is great and the need to see green is real. The problem we’ve had is the buffering between turning it on it actually reading or freezing up while trying to level. 😕

[@japhethwar]

I would add keep your road days as short as possible, we rarely do over 300 miles a day. It's a lot more enjoyable to leave early and stop early. Why rush. Also pack a toolbox, rvs break constantly, but are simple to repair.

[@michaeljohnson8126]

Valterra twist on waste valve is a must have on a rv. Traded my Happy Camper for a new product called Unique Rv Digest it, look it up, you’ll like it!

[@jtmoore662]

I just subscribed. I am a travel hospital worker who moves all over the US for work. I hate staying in hotels for months and I hate Airbnb because its hard to find a place for a solid 3 months to stay in that isnt booked every other weekend. So, I have decided to buy an Airstream 23ft Flying Cloud. Before I commit to that, I have made a play list of all airstream related content especially what to buy before you get one. So thank you for this.

[@donaldvesey8295]

I just bought my 1st RV in Show Low Az . I was doing good got to state park chalked tires, got trailer unhitched trailer and then forgot to unhook chains 😮 but I went slow so no big deal. I'm staying in Show Low for summer and loving it. Have a great season 😊

[@barbaraspiecher4084]

Love the end the memories, we started 6 months ago and we have done so much already. Great times.

[@loragunning5394]

The ending montage brought tears to my eyes. I found your channel almost at your first travel day and remember your excitement when you hit 1000 subs. Like many other viewers feel, it's been amazing watching your family grow and adventure. I think the episode that touched me most deeply was watching Tori and Trish set up Tori's college dorm room, and then Trish crying as she and Marc drove away later that night. I never married or raised children, but still can totally understand how incredibly hard it must bee for a mom (and a dad) to watch their first hatching fly from the nest. Great video, as always.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Thanks Lora!

[@FullLifeCrew]

I think this is one of the best overall channels on KZbin. You can tell they try hard to give you value every video. These guys put a lot of work in to each video. I love this channel as a small youtuber it is like taking a class every Sunday on how I can grow my channel. Thank you guys, your lifestyle, and your hard work is appreciated.

[@maryjojouwstra3860]

I have watch you for YEARS. And I finally got my RV. So am watching you guys again.

[@scottfirman]

Part of the experience is learning, sometimes the hard way. I think everyone has had an experience such as yours. That is how we learn and try to pre- empt any issues we have already experienced. Making sure the black tank valve is closed, checking your tire pressures before leaving on a trip. Monitoring the sides of your camper when travelling for shrapnel comming off your tires, checking for raccoons in your wheel wells. Great tips! Its always nice to watch these types of videos so that I can be aware of things I wouldn't normally think about.

[@bertkelly7650]

I've been trying to find a clear cap for my end sewer piece. That way you can see if there is stuff there and prepare yourself. If you don't have a pull out sprayer for your kitchen faucet, you can use a Pur or any faucet filter. They work great! My max tire pressure is 50. I bought those tire minders for 50 pounds for $8 and can see at a glance what my tire pressures are.

[@josephrobichaud5198]

I just always assume there's going to be something coming out of the drain line and step to the side and have rubber gloves on.

[@allens7476]

Amazon sells the Valtera cap WITH a handle making removing a snap. Clear or black $13 (I think) and a bonus 3/4" hose fitting for flushing

[@TAMBestBuild]

I have a clear fitting at both ends of our sewer hose. Helps a ton.

[@jimmyjenkins9240]

2 levels Level 1. Great information backed by actual events. Level 2. The montage at the end of the video where we got to see so many memories, not the least of which are those three lovely children. Brings tears to this grandfather’s eyes.

[@wynnj373]

Such a great episode! I have been following you for at least four years. I get to visit places I never knew existed, I get blessed by your willingness to share your humble moments, and your energy is hands down inspiring. Thank you for all you do to spread joy.

[@Barry.Ellis.]

This brought up so many great memories of our own journey to where we are now. From leveling problems to poopsies and everything else. And now…we’re finally full-time!!! With 4 boys and a fifth-wheel. Thank you guys so much for all the inspiration you provided to us.

[@pauljackson1291]

As far as chocks, I had some extra 4x6's and I cut them into the middle/double chock design /----\ and use that between the double axle tires. I have had ZERO problems.

[@josephrobichaud5198]

Simple cheap dishwashing gloves at any Dollar Store work great.

[@travelingcatphotos]

I think the overwhelming desire is to be as prepared as you can be so when "it" happens you are prepared. But, of course, that simply isn't possible. Thanks for the flashback footage...as someone with a beginning channel I get all emotional watching my 10 year old grandson grow up just over the past year...it will be even more so in the years to come as we watch him grow as you watched yours. Thank you again for all the video help... and for helping us prepare for our full time journey...I don't think you could ever know how much positive effects you have sent out into the world. You open new worlds for people. What an amazing legacy.

[@danielguertin9664]

I was so excited to install that valtera cap and since this was the first time ever I was opening up that black tank valve, I really taught a little drip but seems the RV, who arrived from the dealership before winter and we were now in spring, had been emptied, well, it was not. Valve was pushed in but a lot came out, on me! Oh Boy, not a happy camper! I was shocked and surprised but I moved on, cleaned up as best as I could and installed everything. I will never take that off again! Good thing we are stationary.

[@robinsonsontheroll5482]

This was legit one of your best “between the episodes” vlogs! I loved the extras that never made the final cut. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@morepower59]

Very nice video. Been RVing for years, and we just came back from a weekend trip. BUT, the beat part of your video is seeing the smile on your very proud face walking your young Marine down the isle. Brought tears to my eyes. My son Cole never got to walk down that isle. Unfortunately, I got the call no parent ever wants. He was killed coming home for Marine Training when a careless driver tried to beat a signal light. Anyhow, I felt the feeling that I never had just seeing it in your eyes. Camping brings back many memories we shared in the past. Thank You.

[@180RK]

It’s as if you knew!!! We pick up our very 1st TT this week! 🙌🙌🙌 We’ve Followed you for years and I recently watched your previous newbie & setup/tear down checklists. Thank you for the years of inspiration- we’ve kept our daydream and, with our almost 1yo, we’re now doing it! 1st big road trip in May with our Summer to Remember shirts :) Thank you KYD fam :)

[@SemiRetiredBob]

As a retired OTR driver I definitely agree with thought #1. Avoid acting like you're in a hurry. Relax and stick to whatever system you have and less mistakes will happen

[@arthurbent8310]

Thank you guys so much, this video came just as we were starting to shop for some of these Items tonight. We just got into our first RV 2 days ago and are excited as we have been following you guys for a while! we hope to see you out there while we adjust to our new class A!!!!

[@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams.]

Excellent information. Obviously you can't possibly cover every little detail. Otherwise this episode would never end..... my added two cents... The travel day departure check list and a windstorm check list. A windstorm check list includes all loose equipment on the ground. Chairs, folding aluminum tables, a portable satellite dish, grills, games, etc make dangerous and damaging projectiles. I've had my roof mounted dish come lose, causing a leak, during a thunderstorm. I now know to turn her off when a storm is approaching or forecasted. While many awnings have wind sensors, they can't see a 60mph gust ahead of time. If you notice wind, check the forecast and bring the awnings in if necessary. A cheap water filter is good insurance against sediment clogging things up and eroding seals. I personally would add a filter to a start kit. Cheers!

[@terrysmiles8599]

My sewer shuts!!! I have never had any problems with my sewer cap! 2005 sierra...I use TST Max drop ins...they work wonderful!...I have the same sewer Hose you used before the new one you showed us!

[@nomadmac2001]

I love how you guys talk about not rushing through things as well as not caring what everyone else is doing or what they think. It's YOUR journey, do yourself and not others. Wait, that came out wrong. Anyway, great video guys.

[@VayaconChupacabra]

Great video!! Man, watching the ending to this video made me realize just how broken I truly am.

[@mygypsyadventure3610]

Great tips but what I loved the most was the montage at the end. It actually made me cry. I have watch your family travel all over the world and watched your kids grow up. Your entire family has been so inspirational to so many people. Maybe when your kids are older they will realize just how awesome their parents were and how not every kid gets to have a lifetime of memories traveling with their parents. It is a gift and those of us whose parents have passed on we know just how special that gift is.

[@happyhippyhaven]

Chocking prevents damage caused bu high winds. Saw one moved 8' here in Arizona during the Monsoons and the damage to the stabilizer jacks thank goodness was covered by the warranty.

[@moremer66]

Fantastic video! I quote you 2 all the time for my knowledge and how well we are set up our first year out camping. Just wanted to point out, the 2nd most replayed part of the video is Trish swimming underwater 😅

[@warrenallen2738]

You made me cry of all your RV experience. Your family Iife is happy and very heartfelt ❤️ with beautiful sharing. Thank you

[@harryduncan6699]

I keep a spray bottle of rubbing alcohol, and spray my gloves after each use. Also spray any other contact points.

[@richardgerster6526]

No matter how long I have been rv’ing I always have a check list that I go by on my phone. I break it down to the day before travel. The day of travel. And arrival. My wife takes care of the inside and she has her checklists.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

It's such a good idea!

[@donkiml5805]

RUBBER WHEEL CHALKS: agree with Mark about rubber is much better than plastic. My husband did an “RV MacGyver” adaption to our rubber chalks. He drilled and placed an eyelet in the back of all 4 rubber chalks. Then he tied a rope to 2 pairs so chalks, making the rope longer than the distance between the front and back set of tires. This makes the carrying and storage of the chalks much easier. Not as much stooping, not handling muddy chalks and easier to carry. (Good for seniors) Some styles come this way or you can adapt yourself. Try it.

[@nancyburke8942]

Honestly just awesome. So glad KZbin allows you to share your creative energy and wisdom. Thank you!

[@kristinireland-doll6562]

Pick up our first travel trailer three weeks ago. Thank you so much for all the education you share with all of us. Made lots of lists of what we need. Have been a viewer since day one. Watching your kids grow has been enjoyable.

[@markmulvaney2686]

Good advice to slow down, and don't travel in the dark as relative newbies we got in a hurry at an unfamiliar campground, left before sunrise and did $4,500 in damage to our MH and $2,500 to neighbors tow vehicle. Lesson learned early on

[@mwpgator]

LOVED this video. Thanks for the humanity.

[@Freynightwalker]

Another great video with good info. I really appreciate how you deliver your messages

[@Ryder-p3m]

I love you guys and your brutal honesty. I JUST bought ny first motorhome and I am a single mom so... this just goes to show stuff happens to everyone. Thank you for being true and not just showing the good.

[@Ecozzy0123]

We’ve been an rv family for over 5 years now and I still love watching your newbie videos. So much great information that is helpful to all rv’ers

[@danny13bravo1]

Going on our first RV trip next week. Crossing fingers it goes good and fun. Love all the tips!

[@christipurr8237]

Love it! Thanks for the reminders, less than a year into our journey, 5 trips on the books with 2 boys, and my Dad who's 73 with dementia. My 12 year old helped with the black tank last week. 😀

[@petercriscuolo8383]

One of the BEST modification I did to my rig was installing gate valves on my sewer connections. SO easy to take one glance and see that at least those gates are closed before twisting off the cap. Also the Unique family of sewer products are a game changer.

[@ZackJohnson]

We have been watching you guys since 2020 - and watching your family sparked a flame in our hearts to travel w our kids before the "window closed". We sold our home, left our family and friends to explore this beautiful country. We have been stationed 2,000 miles from our "home" searching for our rig. Well, 9 months and lots of wonderful memories- and we bring home our rig home this Saturday!!!! To say nerves and excitement arnt in abundance is an understatement. Thank you for sparking our someday to becoming our tomorrow. Many blessings on your continued journey and God willing our paths will cross and we too will be able to say thank you for all the future memories and adventure we will share together with our kiddos ❤️ in person.

[@Harlzburg]

New to the RV world and love your guys videos! Thanks for all the great info

[@Malcolm_Q]

Thank you Mark and Tricia. Helpful.

[@jimmarshall1708]

I retrofitted by Winnebago Navion with the Lippert Waste Master hose. One of the best modifications I have made. The dump process is much easier and cleaner.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

I'll likely end up doing it to share, but I'll have to also modify the sewer hose storage.

[@josephrobichaud5198]

The Campco white water hoses get hard as a rock below 45 degs. and are a real pain to even get back in the storage area.

[@genericwatcher2439]

START people, I know too many people who waited until they retired, then their health failed them. I've been part time RVing with my family for 5 years now and the memories are amazing!

[@robertmagee8257]

Just learned how to level my new trailer. Took awhile, but I got it.

[@BrazenBrits]

great to see the chapters in this. I know many YT'bers don't like them, but its really helpful in the future. We watched the whole thing obviously, but this is great for when we want to watch back at a later date.

[@KeepYourDaydream]

Yeah, it does promote skipping, but for how-to videos, I agree that it's helpful.

[@TheKtloud]

Just bought my first camper and am binging videos. Love you're, and thank you for the little ending to this one. Got a little tear in my eye, just one.

[@listlesstoad]

we switched to a pulververizer setup for our black tank setup, takes a few mins longer but no big hoses and mess to deal with.

Thanks Lori. We appreciate your comments.

[@brettelizabethspore]

Another fantastic production. I should have stopped before the ending music and video section as it left me in tears. You’re living my dream.

[@MrMsowers22]

On tpms, I installed the internal GM ones that work with the GM trailering app. I’m not a fan of all these different screens so I use the GM trailer and GM camera system for the internal screen and an iPad mini cellular ( for gps) for navigation. Two screens and superior oem integration. GM has ford beat here.

[@gregpatey6355]

great vid.... one can go slow and get it right the first time, or speed thru it and make a mistake or two that will require more of the time that you didnt know that you had, to repair or do it over.... slow and steady is always better.... BUT..... when you are going slow, learn a routine, which will then naturally speed up the process. the goal is to make no mistakes while LEARNING how to be quick about it..... when one is slow and they have others waiting on them, is not good for anyone, so find the patience to learn how to keep up with other RV'ers. If you care to learn and have the ability, it will happen.... the accessory "add-on" dump valve is a great safety against leakage from the tank valves, and can be even more functional than some realize.... when camping, the worst "normal" thing that can happen is having the black tank fill up at night... the accessory dump wont solve this, but what it can do is allow the main black tank valve to be opened a little bit, draining some of the effluent out into the drain line, backing up against the valve that was added to the outlet of the waste plumbing, which then frees up a little space in the tank for at least a couple more uses before dumping it.. it takes the worry out of the inconvenience of finding the black tank full when urgency arises.... the black tank should NOT be dumped every day, but it should be allowed to fill to more than half full before dumping..... why?, because the solids that drop into the tank may not be be carried out with the effluent as its drained away, and as it sets on the bottom of the the tank without enough liquid to float it, it can harden to the bottom of the tank, which is the start of a very annoying problem that may get to be an expensive problem... in modern rv's, one should be able to go a couple weeks without any need or reason to dump the black tank.....

[@renelambert552]

"Windows open and close". When we shared our plans with our financial advisor, he actually encouraged us to do it now for that very reason. My husband was retiring and I going to work a few more years, but our advisor said I recommend you do it now since you can because so many people have these plans and health issues for themselves or their parents close their window of opportunity.

It’s like the valve was not even closed! Marc! You are appreciated, even during the 💩. These types of videos are so important. Keep the improvements coming. Your videos have been a great tool for us, as we start out. We learn something new every time! Trish, way to keep Marc on his toes! 😉 Good times!

[@KeepYourDaydream]

It wasn't! For 3 days. I don't how that cap was working so well. Usually they show signs lol. So bad.

[@kevinmulkin3002]

Tire safety is a definite must ... even if only traveling short distances. We have camped with our family since the late 1990's, had a towable since 2000. We decided to go all out and get a new fifth wheel when we became empty nesters. It has been a wonderful change, and a great decision. Three years into owning, we had three tire failures on one trip ( only 2 hours from home ). We bought a new set of tires ( same E rating ), and then also started putting tire covers on when not in use. In a recent trip from NY to Kentucky, all went well. Stopped home in NY for an hour, then continued on another two hours to spend 5 days at our favorite state park. Less than half way there, we had a blowout on the interstate. Did a lot of damage to the side shirting and wheel well trim. Took the trailer into the dealer at the end of October, and we still do not have it back. They just received the final pieces from the manufacturer, but now cannot get the graphics. There paint shop said they feel they can get us taken care of, so crossing our fingers it looks ok. During the down time, I have purchased G rated tires ( along with a heavier set of rims to accommodate the increased PSI ). I'm also going to take your advice on the TPMS. A small price compared to safety, repair bills, and down time. Cannot wait to see your next videos when you hit the road again.

[@staceymiller4765]

Awesome information and it’s put out in a way that’s easily understood. Thank you.

I really loved seeing all the older clips, watching the kids grow has been amazing. Thank you for inspiring others to make the most of our summers with our kids, I wish I would have been in a spot to start sooner. We have been using our RV since 2017 to take our son to see the United States. We are attempting to hit 48 of the states by the time his senior year is here we are at 27 so far and will be hitting 7 more this year! I love being able to show them there is more than just Ohio. Thanks again for sharing your lives with us!

[@drewt9829]

This was a good overview of RV gear and operation, and is one of your best episodes. The deeper dives into specific items or operations will be a nice compliment to this video. This type of video is very helpful to newbies, and those who are on the fence about joining the RV community. The destination videos are the icing on the cake. You are great ambassadors for the RV lifestyle. Keep having fun and Keep Your Daydream.

[@BigSpookyJeff]

This was an easy video to watch. Informative, real, down to earth, and, for this new RV 'er, heart warming. There is so much to learn and know about RV camping. It's overwhelming. But, after watching your video, I'm more excited than anything! I just wish i could take you with me. 🤓

[@JustinLewisWeb]

That ending, it’s crazy to know I’ve seen every episode so every scene felt like a memory of my own 🤩
