We’re excited to announce two big RVgeeks milestones: 10,000,000 YouTube video views and 50,000 subscribers! We want to sincerely thank all of our viewers for your continued support.
After friends purchased their first RV four years ago, we started making How-to RV videos as a way to show them how to use the systems on their rig. Little did we know that sharing those tips publicly would turn into the most popular RVing channel on YouTube, featuring DIY, maintenance, upgrade, travel and product tips.
The feedback we’ve received has been incredibly positive and rewarding. We love hearing that we’ve helped fellow RVers successfully tackle projects that they might otherwise have (unnecessarily) paid a professional to do.
This short video is just our way of saying thanks, and maybe adding a smile to your day. :)
As we go forward, we have lots more videos planned, including some unexpected surprises. Please keep your questions and comments coming. We’ll always do our best to answer your questions, or at least refer you to someone who can. We learn new things all the time, so your input is really valuable. Comment on a video and add your expertise to the discussion!
Our message is simple: “We’re not professional technicians, and you don’t have to be either.” Most people can perform a wide range of DIY tasks on their RVs once they know how. As far as we’re concerned, there’s no better feeling than completing a repair, upgrade or service that we originally thought would be too challenging. The result is usually a trifecta of great results: big savings, a superior outcome, and the satisfaction of doing it ourselves.
Thanks again for subscribing to our website and YouYube channel and for supporting us as we continue creating content for all of us to use (we sometimes watch our own videos to remember the details of annual maintenance tasks, LOL). There must be something to these videos after all! ;-)
Congrats guys!!!! You deserve every single view and 10 million more!
Congratulations! We’re not at all surprised at your success and achievements. All your videos are so entertaining and educational. Thank you so much for all you do for us RV owners. We’re always looking forward to your next video.
BEST WISHES!
Roger & Anna
Hi Roger & Anna! Thank you so much for your kind comments. We hope things are going well for you in your Tiffin, and that your PressurePro TPMS is continuing to provide peace of mind. Also got you e-mail about your slide-topper mirror. Thanks for the great tip! Safe Travels, Peter & John
Thanks for the great tips over the years! I’ve applied much of your advice to our 2010 ElkRidge 5ver and expect many years of service to follow.
Thanks for letting us know, Garry! Means a lot to hear that our videos have helped.
Hahaha! You guys make the best videos! Thank you!
Thank you for your videos they have helped and entertained me while I prepare my 27′ National for the road I have learned a lot from you guys and congrats on your numbers
So glad we could help you hit the road successfully, Michael! Thanks for letting us know. It means a lot to us. :)
Ah, come on guys, break your stairs for us! LOL. Just kidding. It’s just one of those nasty repairs that are real easy to fix and probably intimidates RV’ers from doing. I would have videotape my repair but yours are so good. Anyway keep all your videos coming and thanks again for all the help.
ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST RV SITES OUT THERE. FOR A 74 YEAR OLD CAMPER, THE INFORMATION AVAIABLE IS WORTH IT’S WEIGHT IN GOLD. THANK YOU FOR AN OUTSTANDING JOB AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
You go Greg! We hope we’re still out here RVing at 74 too! Thanks so much for the nice comment.
Congrats guys. Best how to videos on the web. Clear,concise instructions that have no doubt saved me in the thousands of dollars. I know you haven’t done one, but I just replaced my entry step motor. The motor is pretty standard for most RVs and cost about $150. A shop quoted me over $500 to install it and 2 weeks before they could look at it.
If you ever get the chance to, please make a video of that for your viewers. It must be a fairly common problem due to the plastic gear found in most of these motors. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
Hi Robin! Thanks so much. One drawback to our being plain old RVers, vs professional techs, is that we only get to do a video when our RV requires a particular repair or maintenance. Otherwise, we’d be taking apart perfectly good systems! We will definitely keep the step repair on our video “to do” list, and maybe even hope for a motor failure? LOL Seriously, we’re actually less bothered by some types of repairs being needed, since “We can make a video!” is our way of making lemons out of lemonade. :)
Way to go guys!
Those numbers put you in rock star status,,that is RV Rock Stars!
I don’t even have an RV yet but have watched everyone of your videos,,they are great!
Another addicted viewer/fan – keep up the great work and hope to cross path with you sometime in the future.
Thanks so much.
Thanks Fred! You’re too kind. Hope to see you on the road… but possibly a little further West than Boston?! We’re originally from the East Coast, but once we started RVing, the dramatic beauty from the Rockies west seems to keep us out here most of the time. ;-)
Congrats P & J. Your videos and all the tech tips are great. Keep up the great work. Safe Travels!
Thanks Nancy! :)
You go Greg! We hope we’re still out here RVing at 74 too! Thanks so much for the nice comment.
Congratulations guys. Thanks for all the great videos you’ve produced. They’ve been instructive and confidence building. I purchased an older Holiday Rambler Endeavor a couple of years ago and was pretty nervous about doing anything mechanical on it, but your very well produced videos convinced me that I could at least give it a try.
Thanks Craig. Older RVs are definitely a great playground for a DIY RVer! Now that ours is ten years old, we’re finding that renovating and rejuvenating things, even in minor ways, is very rewarding.
Most Excellent. Congratulations! We have been following you two for over a year. We are about 7 months away from being full-timers also; and semi-retired.
You have been giving us the confidence to take care of our rig, learn the ins-and -outs, what accessories are important and most importantly – to have the right attitude.
Thank you so much! We appreciate the work you do.
Not only that, we’re learning about how-to videos from the pros and hope to be able to help others as well.
Trippin’ Engles
Hi J&C! You two must be SO excited about your upcoming switch to full-timing! We really only planned to be on the road for about 2 or 3 years, but it’s so great out here that we’ve never looked back and have no plans to settle down in the foreseeable future. Thanks for your nice note. So glad to hear you’ve found our videos helpful.
Congratulations on your milestone achievement!!! Well deserved. You have provided much needed information on RV maintenance, upgrades and service to this community. We thank you for taking the time, effort and using your own resources with this endeavor that has definitely become a passion yours.
thank you,
Ed in Missouri
Thanks so much Ed. Without the interest, input and support of people like you, we probably wouldn’t be making videos at all. We’re having fun doing it, and it’s always great to hear we’re being helpful, too.
Congratulations!!
I started changing out some of my bulbs to LED bulbs after watching one of your videos. I went down to M4 products and got a few from Steve.
We boondock often on the East Side of the Sierras, and they have worked out great. Plus we are saving energy on our batteries!!
Thank You,
Jeff Muth
Thanks Jeff! Steve is the BEST! We’re hoping to get down to say hello to him this winter. And the East side of the Sierras is a gem. :)
Great job,fantastic videos ,keep up the great, excellent videos
Hey RVG’s! Congratulations on your milestones and thanks for sharing information on products, selecting the right products, the how-to videos,etc. I started watching RVGeeks over a year ago and have been full timing for 3 years. Your suggestions have saved me the time and effort because you have already found the best products.
Keep your videos coming. And it’s great to see faces that goes with the hands we usually see in your videos….haha!
My best,
Roger McFadyen
Thanks so much Roger! We hope the faces don’t drive anyone away (or stop any clocks). LOL
I just signed up for your newsletter a day or two ago, even though I don’t have an RV. Instead, I’m building a house truck (aka Tiny Home) but some of the systems are similar. I’m a voracious fact-gatherer, so the kind of information you guys present is very satisfying! Thanks so much :)
Parker
Hi Parker! We LOVE tiny houses. Once we unloaded our oversized stick house in 2003 and moved into an RV, we realized that we don’t need nearly as much space as we thought (we often talk about downsizing RVs too). Living in a small space is like having our own fort!
Congratulations on the milestone, guys.
For years I’ve tried to convince my wife there’s no reason we couldn’t engage autopilot while we moved back to the dinette for lunch. I think she doubts that now, after seeing your video.
You married a very smart lady, Jim. ;-) She sounds like a very wise co-pilot.
I have been watching your videos for about 3 months and have learned so much. I don’t have an RV…, yet! I think you folks do a great job!! Keep up the great work!! Thanks from a RV Geeks Fan!
That’s awesome Mark. We like your attitude… “Yet!” Wishing you an RV real soon. :)
Bravo! I have always enjoyed your videos. Your continued success comes as no surprise. True quality is not hard to recognize. I wish you both many blissful miles and keep up the great work! I know how much goes into a production such as yours. Someday I hope to see you on the road.
Thank you so much for your kind comments George! Really makes it all worthwhile. :) Safe travels, and maybe we’ll see you on the road.
