We’re super sad to have Clementine back in the shop 😭 But we’ve got to continue our 50 state road trip! Make sure you checkout the full tour of our 1976 RV to see how it compares to this new rig! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKenZKhvhapmqKM

IF and when you upgrade to something newer , bring to a Certified mechanic 1st to make sure everything is right. Then if you purchase and have the funds , install a 2000 watt solar system ( 4 ( 500 watt solar panels ) thatll help power the RV when off grid anything less is not good .... and a simple water filtration under the kitchen sink

What is so interesting (and why we started following your channel a while back) is we bought a vintage class C about the same age as yours. It's in excellent condition. And, after camping in it for a couple of years and meeting other people with newer ones, I'd choose ours hands down over the new ones out there. Stuff just seems to have been made better back then.

@@J.R._ "built much better then anything our there now" - apart from the grammar, that's simply not true. It depends on the make, year and quality tier; some are entry level and lower quality, while others are incredibly high quality. There are pros and cons, whether vintage or newer. I won't go into that here, though - otherwise I'd be writing a novel :)

So with campers quality varies a great deal based on price. We have had high end all fiberglass small trailers that last forever, literally never leaks, furniture is plastic , never fails, all the way down to the mass produced traditional. The ones that last a super long time are always going to be aluminum or all fiberglass including the roof. The stick constructed aluminum sided ones have lasted because the original owners kept them from getting wet, probably garaged or covered its whole life and thats why they are still on the road like Clementine.

On the A/C, you have the "dump" vent open so it blows straight down for quick cooling. It's best to close that by reaching up and sliding it closed. This will force the cool air to go through the vents and cool the whole space front to back evenly. Just my two cents.

For the air conditioner. You have the direct discharge vent open. That’s why it’s so noisy and breezy while it’s running. Close it and it will then send the cool air via the ceiling vents. The front vent on the air conditioner is the intake air. The rear has a sliding damper. Slide it closed.

About Black Tank Odor Problems: When my wife and I started full-time RV living we had black tank smell issues. Started with the orange colored, so-called tank treatments from Camping World and Walmart... If anything, they made it smell worse. (Think how Sean Connery might say "citrus.") I forget how we found it, but we ordered some Happy Camper's Tank Treatment on Amazon, and it just works amazing. It liquifies everything into a nearly oder-free slurry that slides right on out your stinky slinky. No problems with septic systems. There are similar treatments that work pretty well, but we keep coming back to the Happy Camper stuff.

You really need to be a good do-it-yourselfer and outdoor enthusiast to RV in my opinion. Our new 2020 Off Road trailer has needed some kind of repair every single time we have taken it out, but we really use it well. I always get everything fixed very quickly thanks to Amazon, have the parts waiting for me when I get home, but its a constant battle. Unless they are molded 2 piece Egg Style trailers like the Casita or all Aluminum, its effectively 6 walls boxed together and glue shot on all the seams and they are taped shut with rubber molding and thats all of them, regardless, so water leaks is the number 1 issue. 2 years in, we already had to deal with about 3 leaks, however, they are very very easy to repair with just stuff from Home Depot and everyone has an RV section now with the special RV sealants. You just have to stay on top of it. Dad had a Coachman, nice RV but it also had the same issues as they all do.

I hate the looks of the newer ones. No personality & they all look too bland & sterile. Love my 1983 Coachman Leprechaun & love everything you have done to Clementine! It's a shame though all the money you put in getting a new engine etc. & still mechanically having problems. I know that feeling all too well:( Hope she's back running in no time!

We started our demo/renos at the same time (only mine is going much slower and is a travel trailer), and at the first bit I was like "Oh, no, it's an omen for my trailer!" Glad to see Clementine is only resting after all you guys have put in her! Life with stabilizing jacks is AMAZING! It went from feeling like an RV to feeling like a tiny home on a proper foundation. Psychologically, that made quite an impact on perceived size. And as I plan to do a LOT of cooking, that extra stability makes me feel safer in the kitchen.

We have a 1994 Winnebago Adventurer 34 foot we just bought and luckily in very good condition. Still plan several modern upgrades over 1994 specs that also will help with weight and power use. Removing the LP water tank that only holds 6 gallons for an instant heat unit. Upgrading fridge to 120v only. No propane use so removing system for reduced weight. The chevy 454 gets us 11 mpg with just over 40K miles and weight reduction plans should help boost that a little. Total new cooling and AC system on driven unit, roof unit works fine. as well as full brake system rebuild. Reworking the entire roof and reinforcing it to try and prevent leaks, had a leak a few years back fixed from paperwork that came with it. I build boats for a living so plan to style the roof a bit to accommodate the vents and AC units and other items then will gelcoat it completely rather than use a rubber roofing compound. Maybe install a few solar panels on top to boot. Already ordered Dish for Outdoors to install as well as a retract screen and projector to save space on a TV. Roof AC units have both cool and heat so will remove the "central heat" system for weight. Ours oddly did not have a leveling system on it but will find one second hand to install soon so added weight there but they also help when you have a flat and carrying a 12 ton bottle jack sucks. Slight delamination on sides from age but nothing serious to worry about it can be fixed easily. Last piece of technology it will get will be a roof mounted VR360 camera hooked to my old 5TB DVR for some cool youtube videos when on the road.

When I was a young child (4/5) one chased me on my Uncle’s farm.. we went round and round a tree until my Hero brother (Kevin) came to my rescue💛 He sadly was taken from us a couple years after that💔 My Uncle told me he was gonna get rid of that mean rooster because he wasn’t gonna keep a rooster that would chase after a child.. he was a wonderful man❣️ Anyways, sorry for the ramble😂 Just wanted to say them roosters can be mean as heck and if they get you with their spurs they can hurt someone pretty badly!! I also learned after that that if it were to ever happen again to chase them back and stomp at the rooster… basically scare him and show him your authority.

The pro tip I want to know is how to stop roosters from crowing. We have neighbours RIGHT NEXT to us who have 5 roosters - they all take turns crowing, no matter what time of day. From my research, the only *effective* way to stop them crowing is to lop their heads off. I don't think the neighbours will let us do that. But I do wish they'd eat them for dinner. Come on, neighbours - it tastes like chicken! 😂

While I totally agree with your old rebuilt unit looking much better, I use my RV for weekend getaways and some longer trips and yes its cheaply built junk but its a 36ft fifth wheel with three slides and its pretty roomy and comfy and all I need to go enjoy the week or weekend at a nice lake or campsite and its perfect for that. I bought mine one year old a few years back and paid $25k cash for it which was about $13k less then they guy I bought it from paid so it was a smoking deal and is still worth close to $25k possibly more now. I plan to use the crap out of it and probably leave it to my kids when I'm gone or sell it some day way down the road when I cant deal with it anymore. RV's are like boats, you love and hate them and have to constantly work on them but to me they are both worth it for all the pleasure and adventure you get out of them. I'm pretty handy with a wrench and that to me is part of the enjoyment, working on them.

Clementine is a darling RV, but I miss the old EA from years ago that traveled all over the world to interesting and beautiful places. A castle in Germany or a hidden beach in Southeast Asia is way more interesting than a tour of US campsites. But we will continue to watch because we like you both. But I really miss the old days!

I’m 31 years old and have been with my girlfriend 10 years, we bought our house 5 years ago here in Florida, 2b 2b garage front and back screen porch, but we’re talking about selling the house and buying a schooly or a rv or something, we have good jobs and our morgage is not bad (since we bought it before market went crazy high) we don’t have car payments or credit card debt, we just noticed how less is more, and we can do with less,

We spent a night in Wilson State Park/Wilson Reservoir in Kansas. Looked very similar, so maybe it’s nearby? We, also, were surprised by the landscape! Good luck with your Clementine woes.

You 2 are cute. Thanks for the comparison . Everything was built better in the earlier years. Today Everything is cheaply made so you have to keep redoing and replacing. And the Price don't even go there! Lol Thank you

AMEN !!!! Your comment regarding RV vinyl graphics. There should be a law against them. Most value priced RV's built by large companies are pure junk. Coachmen is 1 of 7 RV brands owned by Forest River.

First, I think Coachman should hire you both as designers! After your 50 states you could take a break and design. Hope they werent looking for a perfect review. We will miss Clementine till all fixed. Enjoy for now. Dont forget your fridge magnet!
