"Let's celebrate what we have!" Says it all :) Making the most of what you have and celebrating. Love that!
Start small. Start now. That's how we got going. We're glad you're here.
Man, that’s a big rig!
I love how Trish is so organized, and all the innovative new uses she finds for common articles.
Happy Trails
love your no nonsense attitude and the fact that you don't draw your narrative out like some which gets boring and i have to skip. love the rig and your family are funny
We love your new rig! It sure gives you tons of room for your family. Trish, you gave us numerous, thoughtful storage tips that we're going to implement in our trailer.
Showing Ginger some love after two years. Don't seem long ago I was watching this video over and over. We ended up with a Grand Design 31MB, a mid bunk 5th wheel. Happy Travels guys!!!
Just started watching you since this morning, started with your newer videos, and I gotta say, I like this Ginger better than your new one. Love the bunkhouse! Yes I have been binge watching you back to back for the past 12 hours....I am hooked. We are just starting our RV journey, we have it sitting in our driveway waiting for retirement.....2 more months!
It may seem redundant but these videos are a hoot to watch....not only do you learn a heck of a lot but you feel energized by the skill of Tricia & Marcs presentations........oh and finally I think it shows how sincere they are when they emphasize that it doesn't matter what size rig you have just get out there and well, Keep Your Dream!
I'm glad you get it Trevor. Welcome. We do advocate to *start* where you are, but that doesn't mean to *stay* where you are. We make improvements and upgrades along the way that wouldn't have been possible if we didn't just start!
Really enjoyed your video - Saw hundreds of RV tours which typically talk about features, specs, etc. It was really nice to see an RV tour that shows how a family "uses" the RV. Well done!!
So...I watched this video when it came out and thought "man, that is my DREAM trailer!!" Fast forward to today, we are looking at upgrading because our 2016 Aspen Trail was damaged in a microburst and THIS was the trailer our friends showed us and we fell in love with!! We came home and I got to show this to my husband and we are seriously considering this upgrade when our trailer is fixed up and ready to go!!! Thank you!!
Since we already had a RAM 1500, we used this spreadsheet extensively when looking at RV's. It was the final "go or no go" data point when making a decision. Finally settled on a Surveyor Legend 203RKLE which was well within our towing capabilities...all the numbers.
Love Grand Ginger. Beautiful rig. I know the feeling of camping with kids. We loved it. Now we are downsizing. Can’t wait.
Great Idea's for storage I'm going to pass them along to my wife. Our 2018 312BHTS get's delivered to our property next weekend. Glad you're liking yours! I know we're excited!!
We have been following you all for a while. We upgraded to a 350 and the Grand Design 303 RLS this year. For us the Grand Design is the best. We learned a lot of tips when we met the factory rep when he came to Idaho. What a great gift to you as a family to bnd and learn by exploring.
You guys are a great resource for newbies looking to get into the lifestyle. Keep the videos coming.
Even though im only 12, you guys are my fav!! And so is camping
omg same and I’m so excited because I get to go rving at the end of the month (june 2020) Yay!
Have had rv’s for 10 years and you came up with a great idea for kitchen storage, the small trash containers to hold plates bowel and utensils finally after all these years I have an organized cabinet thank you.
Thanks to your video I discovered I am 300 pounds over GVWR. Load on my hitch combined with family of 4 and toys in bed of truck pushed it over the top. Considering moving some items into the trailer. That will take the load out of the pick up but put a little more tongue weight. Excited to go to the scales and figure this all out. Thank you very much for your hard work. You too are fun to watch.
One other thing to add, just completed our first long trip for us, 1800 miles to Biloxi, Ms and back to St. Louis. Great trip and met a lot of wonderful people along the way. Thanks to you and Trish for the inspiration to take off and see the country one highway at a time!
Michael & Nancy 🎅🏻&🤶🏻
Very nice rig. Trish has some great organizing ideas. I think we might borrow a few. Enjoy your Alaska trip. I spent 47 years up there and sure do miss the summers. Winters not so much.
Love an rv organization video where the rv actually looks organized! 😍 so many great ideas!
My wife & I love your videos... This "How To Organize" has been the best of the best on organizing a RV..We will apply many of your tips when we go Full-Time in 2020... Thanks Guys!!!
You guys are awesome. We are also a family of 5 including 3 teenage daughters. Buying our first camper later this year. So looking forward to using your storage system. Thank you for sharing
We are due to pick up our Grand Design Reflection 312BHTS this weekend. Thank you so much for all the advice in this video. These tips and tricks will help a great deal!
Great video! You're right about there is no perfect rig, but once you own a RV, you learn what you do like and what you don't like so that when you decide to trade it in, the next one will be a better version of what you had.
Thanks for the outstanding tour. So much better than watching a dealer go through an empty trailer on their lot.
Excellent video! We are purchasing our new Ray in two months for a family of six. Thank you guys for sharing so much information!
Omg trish deserves a Nobel for her energy an expertise ❤️❤️❤️
Guys, I have watched so many RV tours but this one is by far the most interesting.
Fantastic job, was fascinated to see all the really cool storage ideas Trish.
Looking forward to seeing your adventure to Alaska.
Love love love this video!!! We have had 5 well loved and used trailers in the last 42 years ♥️ and I love sharing and learning trailer tips. TODAY we purchased our first ** NEW ** trailer. A 2019 Reflection 297rsts YIPPEE! Hubby is an astronomy ranger for 5 months each summer and we live for free with full hooks surrounded by pines, quakies, wildflowers, fabulous ranger family, dark skies with bright stars, visitors from around the world and beautiful wildlife at 10,350 altitude living the dream. Kids are grown, we now have our beautiful “grownup” trailer just for us to live in and travel. Now I am off to watch more of your videos 😁.
Haven't really seen this type of floor plan in the Class A's. In this travel trailer, I love how the island has a sink. It had a very open floor plan. Very flowy!
The magnetic knife strip in the bathroom = genius!! So glad you all are loving Grand Ginger!

Cool How do you know if you can screw into the side of a camper or not? Some dealers have told me NEVER do that because wires could be behind the wall....just curious about how much you can do to outfit and customize. Like if you don't have a wall cabinet how do you know if you could install one above a toilet etc.
Can't go wrong with Grand Design. We bought our 297RSTS Reflection last October and love it. Just got back from Land Between the Lakes, Ky and heading down the east coast in 3 weeks. Love you guys, stay safe and hope to meet up with you guys! Safe travels!
Yay you got the Milepost map up on the wall! I CANNOT WAIT to see your trip to Alaska and relive ours from last summer. The Milepost is an absolute MUST when traveling through Alaska!
We can't wait!
I think ALL women label containers and use them for storage:). We enjoy shopping for the right cute basket or container perfect for our stuff:). As soon as something tips over or falls out were headed back to Ross or the like. The magazine storage for under the sink is one we all jumped on after seeing on great storage ideas. That one is a win! Tension bars are a common remedy for keeping things from falling out during travel, especially for the fridge! TFS
Excellent video! My wife is an organizational freak, so she really liked all your tips. One thing we bought were the collapsible foot rests. They're on Amazon for under $20. They work double duty in that they offer storage when set up. Can hold 400lbs! Thanks again you two!
Great video.. can’t wait for the Hensley Arrow video. We have had ours for a few years and would not trade it for the world.
Decorating is challenging. So, I don't. But, I am truly glad you can, and do. Cheers!
Had a fifth wheel once. Didn't like loosing the bed space in my truck for a hitch that was so heavy to remove I didn't unless I had to. Second after falling down the steps from the bedroom to the bath a few times I sold it and went back to a regular trailer with a flat floor. Great looking trailer, looks better quality than the last.
We are first time campers and picked up the same camper last October. It’s been great. Hope to see you guys on the road sometime.
Your organization tips are invaluable and we'll be implementing several of them in our own Grand Design! I especially love the way you organize the kitchen and bathroom so that everything is secure and easy to locate. Much props to you, Trish, for running a taut ship! KYD is our favorite RVer channel and we're super excited for your journey to Alaska!

Very inspiring! We are so excited to our rig at the end of this month....a fifth wheel. I always learn something watching your videos. Really appreciated Tricia's organization. Gorgeous rig!!!!
Hey guys. New RV Newbie here. Just bought this same RV but the 2022 model. We are very excited to follow your journeys and make some of the same trips you did. Starting from Dallas, TX
My wife and I started out in a coachman rv. We are going tomorrow to pick up our 2020 grand design just like yours.we went a couple days ago just looking and fell in love. It will be a huge step up from what we have. Thanks for your informative video.
What idiots would thumbs down this video. It was insightful and cool to see different ideas on how to utilize space.
Really informative video. We’ve been RVing for six years and are on our fifth camper/2nd 5th wheel. We have the Grand Design Reflection 303RLS and we love it. But I thought we were good at storing things until I saw this video. I learned so much and will be using many of your ideas. Thank you!
We just upgraded from a popup to a travel trailer and i am loving this channel for ideas.
You two wonderful folks are amazing,Hi im Randy from Indy ,i gots to say mark ive learned so much since i started watching you about 6 months ago,Im learning this from you two and your children,,Thanks so much for your adventures,im hoping to start in the next couple years,getting feet wet on weekends,,Thanks again..
So close to 100k subs. Amazing how quickly this channel has grown.
We have a 2017 Forest River Heritage Glen 312QBUD. We have 5 kids and we pull it with a 2018 F150 King Ranch. This is our first camper and so far we love it.
Great ideas! One consideration about hanging caps on the wall... as you travel down the road those hats are swinging on the wall, which wears the material on those contact points. I hung my caps the same way in my 18 wheeler and now all of them are threadbare at two points on the bill where they were resting against the wall. That was only after about a year.
Just ordered the drying rack for our rig! Look into a hitch mounted rock guard for the Alaska trip. It mounts in the ball receiver between the truck and the rv to protect it. It's like a giant mud flap but goes all the way across. Alaska is know for the rock damage on its highways.
New uses for command hooks. They are lifesavers. I keep my outside cords and dog bones together,extra lights,and water hoses in a color coded baskets with a carry handles. Easy to grab and More space in the basement bin.
I am having a blast watching your show and learning, learning, learning! Love your positive energy and hope we meet someday. Cheers from me and DH Paul from Medford, Oregon. PS... we love Bend, OR, too. Glad our kids and grand-sweeties are there.
What great organizational tips to maximize your space and make the whole RV adventure easier and more enjoyable. Wish I had found you when we had our motor home. However, I get such vicarious pleasure watching your videos - and maybe another rig will be in our future. Keep on 👍😃.
Excellent ideas and I picked up few tips, thank you! One thing I thought might help you guys, is utilizing your outdoor kitchen. You mentioned how your (indoor) Kitchen is cut off when traveling & the slides are in. We will pre-pack lunches and place them in our outdoor kitchen for easy access when we’re fueling up. Just a thought. Love you guys - be safe!!!
She looks like Reese Witherspoon!! I can't wait for the RV life!!
Once again, I'm enjoying the information you are sharing. Very practical.
Those phone holders are awesome!
I'm not in an RV, but these were some great organizational ideas for a small space. I too thought the fireplace was just for looks. How nice that you can enjoy a cup of coffee by the fireplace in the morning. This is living high on the hog! Your outdoor kitchen is going to be so much fun!
Yay! Need this before our very first RV trip with my hubby and 3 teens (2 boys and 1 girl).
Great video as always! I will definitely use the awesome tips to organize our fifth wheel we just purchased six months ago. We upgraded from a Jay-flight 26 ft travel trailer to a 39 ft Denali fifth wheel because we needed more privacy and room i.e. Bathroom was too small, couch was not big enough for the family to enjoy a movie together, bedroom did not have a walk around bed and no closet space and the kitchen is now much roomier, which makes cooking and serving more enjoyable. Once you live in an RV for a while you notice the things that are important to you. Advice for those who are thinking of buying a new RV, try to focus on what is important to you to feel comfortable before you choose a certain RV model.
I enjoyed touring your awesome RV. You did a great job in describing everything. I’m looking forward to learning more about your future upgrades. Enjoy your new RV and always Happy Safe Travels!
As always great video.... I learn a lot from your video's. It is a lot different than the Campers I use to tow around on the job I just retired from....Biggest camper I ever had at work was a 48 foot with 5 pop's... It weighed 49.000 lbs dry... It was quite a chore keeping up with it... I towed it with a Freightliner twin screw tractor with a walk in sleeper. It was quite the rig.....I just bought a 30 footer to travel with...Off and running soon... Well you take care and be safe.... I will be behind you someday... Just have to get started.....Thanks...
I just adore Trish
One thing I figured out in our rig that you may love is a second tension rod in your shower. You have the height as well. I put another tension rod along the back of the shower about 4-6 inches from the wall. Then I took the shower curtain hooks and left like 4-5 on it so that we have a place to hang our suits and towels. That way everything drips directly into the tub and not down the wall! Everything seems to dry a lot faster that way as well!
We are just getting started in the RV world and LOVE you both! You are our favorite couple to watch by far! Thanks for entertaining and informing us. I also bought an RV life book that mentions you both. And Tricia- you look just like Reese Witherspoon. So darling!
Congrats on your new home... it’s truly beautiful! Thanks for sharing all these great space saving ideas! These are my favorite kind of videos!
What an upgrade, so much more room
I seriously love you guys................So happy your living life the way you want to.
Nice rig, I think you all will enjoy it for a long time before you get a fifth wheel. Thanks for the tour and great tips.
I am a little late to this video but I love the organization video from Trish and Mark. I plan on traveling in the very near future and all this comes in very handy for me. Love your videos and I'm catching up on them. Happy trails!!
Great tour! Loved the magnetic strip in the bathroom, going to have to steal that idea even at home! Would love to see what the kids love about the new rig and their new room set up.
5 people in that travel trailer?! Crazy... I lived in the 2016 model (different floor plan) by myself with my big dog and that was perfect.
watching some of your old videos from season 3 beginning Grand Ginger, cool to see how you space save, love the dish drainer
I have one additional con to add. There is no external cap for adding water into your fresh tank. While the Nautilus is awesome (it really is) I would like to be able to carry a few 6 gallon containers of fresh water to supplement the fresh tank when boondocking. 72 gallons is better than 60, no? Great videos guys...my lady and I enjoy them!
This is my favorite camper y’all have owned. I like how organized it is
This is so beautiful! I’m drooling over the island and fireplace! I love your videos- the organization hacks are gold for me right now! We are upgrading from a nice pop up trailer to a 2007 bumper pull this year- so excited. Still fun to see this grand version!
I love her!!!! And ALL for those keyholes worried!!!!!
Oh my goodness, this video has a PLETHORA of fabulous information!!Buying our first travel trailer TODAY! I am so excited to get our littles out on the road. Thanks for the video!
Oh my gosh, we just watched your tour in what must had been an older rig. This is beautiful! congratulations on your new RV.
Yes, Ginger 1.0 as we refer to her now :)
Grand Ginger WOW is so Gorgeous lol!! GREAT job Organizing LOVE IT!!! HUGS to all 5 of you!!! Great video & Great Ideas!!!!
You continue to give us new and great ideas! There is so
much we can do to take “command” of our camper.
That is why we like our Grand Design Great video
Great job as usual folks. We love our GD 367BHS 5th wheel. They really make a great product. You are one of the full time couples that inspired us to create our own channel. Keep the great videos coming..... Kim & Dave.
Thank you so much for this video! It is so helpful and you have amazing tips. We are getting ready to RV full time and I will be referring back to this video as we prepare our fifth wheel 😀
By God we love your videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are heading out next week, if it isn't snowing, no destination just south. We live in the northeast. No it's not April 10th it really is January 93rd. Hope to someday see ya on road or better yet a meetup.
Awesome tips and tricks for saving and making use of the space available. I'm purchasing a Grand Design Imagine 2600 RB and will be in there months at a time and both of you have given me some great ideas. Thanks for a great video.
So glad you are happy with the rig. We love our Grand Design too.
I did not notice but here's a tip if for if the rod in your closet is a regular style hanging rod (which for the record, is my preference compared to those "travelling rods" (which look like a tin I-beam with triangles cut out to place the hangers in) that some RV manufacturers install. Mind you, this tip isn't for everyone but some people might want to limit the journeys that their hanging clothes sometimes might embark upon. :p Go to your local hardware store and buy a length of flexible tubing that is around the same size as the rod (only "slightly" larger) and slip that AROUND your rod before reinstalling it in the closet. The ridges of the tubing will help keep the hangers in place but STILL allow you to move them left and right easily enough. Great rig, you two. I really like Grand Design.
I love how many times Trish says these two words “kitchen island” 😂😂😂
She misses her Grand Design. She admitted it when she gave the last tour of her Airstream.
Looks Awesome! I love that your counter has the undermounted sink. Makes for a much larger usable space. I bet it feels so good to have so much more room for everybody and everything. My husband would love that very large pass through underneath! We have opposing slides and an island as well in a 30' Heartland Wilderness. Everyone is so surprised at the amount of space when they come inside. I have a con as well about the opposing slides since our bathroom is in the rear. Every time we stop and need to use the bathroom, I have to push out one of the slides at least 6 inches so I can squeeze through to the back. We are fulltimers as well and are feeling ready for an upgrade to a fifth wheel too. We'll see.
Love the storage for the shoes - and the knife block in the bathroom.....awesome tips. thanks guys!
We totally bought that paper towel holder!!!! SO AWESOME!
I think it goes with out mentioning, we command stripped the biz out it too!
We have it, too!
Thanks now I really want a different RV .I loved your ideas for medicine cabinet your are very good at organization. Very jealous of your kitchen island beautiful fifth wheeler you choose.
Another "newbie" to your Channel and love your videos! THANK YOU for sharing your experiences and showing off Grand-Ginger :) A fan for life and looking forward to seeing you guys on the road and meeting with the other Ginger / KYD Groupies out there!
I'm really digging the silverware caddy.
Wow, impressed! Very good walk thru. Best functional one I have seen. You can tell you actually live in it. I am FT and even picked up a few ideas. Bravo!
Awesome tour, great job...now a prediction for the future....the kids are grown and gone leading productive lives.....******POOF****** you are in an Air Stream !! LOL You will remember this in a few years if you keep living this lifestyle. Love your channel keep up the great work !
For sure we have to have an Airstream at least once!
Trishia, so happy to see you were able to keep your "Guac Bowl", not so heavy! LOl Anyway waiting on my Grand Design 5R... soon. 🌻
Hi Guys, love watching your videos all the way from Oz... we have bought a new caravan "rig" and it will be delivered in July this year!! can't wait to take on board all your tricks of the trade!!
Glad you like your Grand Design! We have a GD Imagine 2150, for the two of us it has lots of room and is very easy to manage. We think GD is a great company, went to the factory rally last year and are going again this year! Great video, thanks for sharing!
Hearing Tricia talk about stuff falling out...in a future video you can put a camera IN the RV while you are driving and maybe hang something from the ceiling vent so we can see just how much movement is inside an RV while we are driving. I have heard so many horror stories about what happens in an RV while you are driving and I think it would be interesting to see for real. Keep up the great work! So far I have gotten lucky, or maybe my trailer is just well organized in my plastic bins...Nice storage under the RV, still don't think it has enough room for all your hoses Marc... LOL
