ℹ️ About the Episode
They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, and no truer words have ever been spoken when it comes to our truck and Airstream. We thoroughly enjoyed our season of motorized RVing and appreciate that we were able to share our experience in Class As, Bs, and Cs with the KYD Community. But based on the way we travel-not to mention how fast we travel-the F250 and Airstream is the best match for us. It's good to be back. But not without a de-winterizing snafu! In this episode, Marc picks up the Airstream from Woodlands in Grand Rapids and drives 1,239 miles, stopping for just one overnight near Atlanta. We tried and failed to park the Airstream at the new KYD Bungalow, so we set up at an RV park instead to get the rig prepped for our upcoming trip.
De-winterizing should be a simple task-but this time, we ran into a couple of issues that set us back a day or two.

No Marc, this is just what everyone needs to see having had your Airstream in "storage" for a while. This is great content.

@grumpyshorts1056 2 года назад

Yes, what he said. Shows that RV'ing is not all sunshine and RV'ers need to learn to react, repair, rum and coke and move to the next campsite! :-)

@gillianwv 2 года назад

Plus you might have just saved someone else doing a a service call. They now know to check the aerator. 👍🏻

@180RK 2 года назад

Just buying a TT last week, this is EXTREMELY helpful and entertaining content in seeing some of the work that goes into maintaining your rig.

Totally agree with the rest of the comments. Maybe not “entertaining” but so important and informative.

Love that you remember to show the “mundane” parts of RVing even though you are seasoned RVers! We look forward to your videos each week. Much love from OHIO!!!

@cbrokenshi 2 года назад

Love the behind the scenes/day in the life videos. It shows that everything isnt all rainbows and sunshine. Also really like the longer videos. Im sure its a pain to edit them, but your videos really are like cinematic movies!

@mikedeneve01 2 года назад

Thanks Cody, not all rainbows and sunshine for sure!. Nice to see KYD showing that aspect. NOW would love to see a behind the scene Mark in the doghouse with Trish episode. Now that would be a hoot!

@stevemerkle9663 2 года назад

The fact that you took the time to find Caleb’s “hold my nugget and umbrella” clip, lol and insert right after Trish says “nugget tray” is exactly why I love and follow KYD! 😂👏 And the water problems wasn’t draining to us at all! 😃👍🤙🙌

@DjinnRummy 2 года назад

I sooo appreciated the nugget moment too!! 🤣

@TheBurnsStuff 2 года назад

These setbacks are part of RVing. I'm glad you showed this because this can happen to anyone at any point.

@audreyfsaunders 2 года назад

I appreciated Tricia's tip about keeping plastic bins under sinks in case of leaks. Smart!

@preachers4135 2 года назад

I second that! Tricia is correct about plumbing fittings working loose and using plastic bins for secondary containment is the best solution plus they keep all those small containers organized and more likely to stay in place while traveling.

@blacksquirrelhomestead 2 года назад

My rv sink leaks also. We've fixed it, and it started leaking again! Save yourself the headache and get a bin. 😀

@flying-with-ryan 2 года назад

I was getting my Bambi ready to go on the road a few days ago, and my sink stopped working. I messed with it for about 20 minutes before I had a flashback to this episode and your clog. Yup, same problem. Fixed it in two seconds. So glad I watched it.

@vitaminbp1 Год назад

Watching the sink leak issues brings back memories of an ill-fated project of changing my stock faucet to a new high arch one. I anticipated an hour project. 2 days and 14 hours of work later, 5 trips to home depot later, I finished the install. Lesson learned, make sure the supply lines are the same size as the existing plumbing. 😂

@terribryant7980 2 года назад

This is educational and entertaining.. My husband and I had water issues 3 weeks ago. These kind of videos are so imperative for RV viewers in need. You have to think outside the box when dealing with RV issues and somebody else's perspective is exactly what you need. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

@lorraineanderson149 2 года назад

Fixing RV problems is always educational and helps others that might have the same problems. Keep them coming!!

@DianneCarrington 2 года назад

Marc, you make a comment, "I hope this is at least marginally entertaining to you" as you battled the leak under the sink. For me, it was the most valuable video of the many of your videos I have watched. The way you problem solve, talk it through, and persevere is invaluable to me. I also appreciate your constant message that RV life is a series of challenges... things WILL go wrong. Trish's tip of keeping the plastic bins under the plumbing became my next TO-DO TASK. Videos like this give me the confidence and techniques to tackle issues I know I will experience. Please more videos on your process of solving issues.🤓

@Firekiller2151 2 года назад

Those of us who RV go through these same processes every year. It helps to know you aren`t the only one. Every spring I swear I`m selling the camper, but once you make that first trip of the year, all of the hassel of de-winterizing is forgotten. Thanks for bringing us along!

@roysteele396 2 года назад

Haha we actually loved seeing the mistakes and how you worked through it! Super funny seeing your reaction to the water not coming out of the faucet! 🤣

Marc, I will give you your selection of "moderately entertaining" but from my perspective...HIGHLY EDUCATIONAL for us newbies in problem-solving. Well done Sir.

@juliefox77 Год назад

I so appreciate the REALITY of this video! While RV Life is full of adventure and beauty, it's also full of surprises that take a lot of work and patience to overcome! It's also a nice dose of reality that even if I upgrade my 8K Hybrid to to my dream 100K+ Airstream we'll still run into issues. We'll just feel more swanky in the process, LOL!

@paulwarner2360 2 года назад

That aerator issue brought back memories. New apartment building, 150 units, plumbers never removed them at start up. So many were clogged. I always remove them when I do any plumbing repairs.

@carrsontheroad 2 года назад

So happy to see you back in the Airstream! The Bird was a lot of fun though, and we can't wait to see what's coming up next. As always, we love watching your videos. Full time RVing isn't for the faint hearted.

@user-lo4wl6wd7f 2 года назад

We're not alone! LOL. This is reality, which is good for people to see. We turned our water on after winter and our floor got flooded. We had forgot to hook a connection back up after winterizing. Then we found out the water pump needed to be primed. Then we couldn't get hot water and found our mixing valve screen was plugged. Fun times.

@0HARE 2 года назад

As usual, you’ve taken it to the next level. KYD Bungalow? Who knew? Love all the mods and work you did on the Airstream, especially that Dometic 12v ‘fridge, and the convection oven. It’s great to see Tori and Carson in the episode, but really, Caleb is The Dude. Rock On

@travelingcatphotos 2 года назад

I know you are SO happy to be back in your truck! The voice made me giggle. We like the "fix it" parts of the video because you always explain what went wrong and how you got it to go right. It lets the rest of us know what to do if it happens to us!

@ChristCenteredKeto-JulieLenart 2 года назад

Of course your truck has a voice! Just like I always knew Charlie had a voice even before your videos “admitted” it! I was riveted to this video even with a “keeping it real” segment on plumbing issues, which I think gives everyone a glance at actual RV life. Love the return to the truck and airstream and the Floridian segment!

Glad you kept the AirStream and showed the dewinterization drama! The plumbing is historical! We almost bought the same model AirStream in 2017 at the Chicago RV Show. My girls have trouble with the upper bunk access. Thanks for including all the trials and tribulations! Love your talking Ford, People come into the dealership asking for a demo of that feature!

@larryclark5355 2 года назад

In the 70s I was in the USAF, There are gap filler radar site in our mountains to see within the valleys. We had a small hut when we worked there for a few days. We found we had water everywhere but the kitchen sink so we called it in. Not expecting any help in the near future we carried water from the bathroom sink as we needed it. On the third day a retired sgt. showed up who worked on base as a civil engineer. First thing he said was "You guys are all single right", YEP, walked over to the faucet and unscrewed the aerator,it was way more clogged than yours. He left saying remember when you get married and you'll become heroes for a little while 'til you screw up.

@xplorn4 2 года назад

Marc, my wife and I had the a similar issue with debris in the water lines after winterizing it. Be thankful because your issue was nothing compared to ours. At first I did the same steps you did to trouble shoot, but ended up cleaning every faucet and found we had algae throughout our coach. The algae had grown due to a mild spring and a late de-winterization. Unlike your RV, ours was a Newmar DutchStar with two baths, a washer, and residential fridge with icemaker. So cleaning out the algae took a lot of our time and effort. I had to clean out the water pump for the RV and the pump for the fridge. The fridge pump quit because of the build up and I can tell you moving the fridge out was no easy task. We then drained & bleached the entire system and ran it many times to remove the bleach. Our RV repair center said it is common here in Kansas with our weather being so unpredictable. We really love the show. We are going Full time in August. Hope to see you out there.
