ℹ️ About the Episode: We've never been one for practical jokes, but left alone in a shop with an entire bag of miniature flamingos, we knew the mission! If you caught last week's episode (Part 1 of this "dream build"), this is Part 2, where we make all the connections and see if it turns on! Ronnie wasn't nervous, but the camera guy had his doubts 😂 But seriously, videos like this are satisfying to watch because they show talented people doing what they do best. Ronnie is the definition of, "Fast is smooth and smooth is fast."

Except all they did is buy the trailer. Everything else was "donated".
You have succeeded in keeping me interested for 27 minutes and 38 seconds without me jumping forward in an RV mod episode. Congrats

I’d appreciate telling us the cost for everything if we were doing the same mods. (Not sponsored).
I’m SO jealous of the clear window. Love that Ronnie buffs the floor. That epitomizes how he treats his shop and all of his projects. It’s a beautiful place and a fun experience if you get the chance.

I like it when he blinks so people don't think I slowed the footage down. Sometimes he is perfectly still for minutes. Funny dog.

I know, Right? He is so cute with that toy! 😍
Ronnie is true craftsman. "A man and his tools...it's a beautiful thing." Love the garage Zamboni too.
Ronnie is a rare find these days. Great at what he does. RV world needs more of him. So impressed.
"A generator can help mitigate your overall solar budget." This stuff cracks me up! 😎
Ronnie is the real deal. The world needs more Ronnies.
The flamingo prank hillarious! He really uses his shop.

CHEESY AF!
So.....if irc on last week's video (part 1) you said that the total cost and / or breakdown of this "Dream Build" would be revealed . I carefully watched this whole EXCELLENT PRESENTATION but .....no cost/breakdown. Please reveal the total cost and or breakdown for our enquiring minds.....we would ALL surely appreciate it. Thank you.........again.

They literally got everything for FREE! How can they breakdown the cost? They admitted last week that Battle Born and Victron sent them free stuff plus I'm sure Ronnie gave them a free install for publicity. I think KYD is great, but they have NO IDEA how much things actually cost because they haven't paid for anything in years!

They can list the retail costs in a price breakdown. Who cares if they get it for free or if they barter goods and services for free advertising. It’s a perk they get because they have created an excellent KZread channel.
The man takes pride in his work, and takes pride in a clean shop. 👍
I think the Erpods look bigger in an Airstream because of the reflection on the ceiling. They remind me of little Star Wars droids poking their heads out. 😄
Great episode! I waited all week for the ending of this episode and wasn't disappointed! Again, GREAT EPISODE! Thank you KYD, special thanks to Ronnie! A man who knows his stuff!
I love watching Ronnie work. He’s got the right tool for every job. I would’ve liked to have a shop and tools like his when I did my renovation. I basically did my renovation in my driveway with a drill and a skill saw!
Ron is so knowledgeable. I don’t even own a trailer and I learned a lot. Thank you!
Just love following you all and the interesting things you do to your RV. But honestly you’ve all moved on to another level of RVing that most of us average RVers will never see or can relate to. But we have grown to love you all ,your family, and friends. And that’s what keeps us watching. It’s not so much the RV’ing as it is the really great human beings you all are. Thank you. The world needs more people like you all.
This was really a very interesting and informative video. Ronnie is a wizard on Airstreams and his attention to detail shows. What a great couple of episodes. Now, lets go out and test the system!
Ronnie made matching blue caps for the unistrut for the inverters? He is a detail oriented guy. Quality work!

I’ll take credit for the caps but Can’t take the credit for the color. The caps come blue
Those flamingos are so cute. My family "ducked" me this Easter at our family gathering with 222 hidden ducks all throughout my house. As of today I still have 40 left to find. Each one is a token of love.
6:00 As an RV tech, when he mentioned a 12v DC to 110v AC relay, I immediately thought of the water heater element relay. It’s always enjoyable when a seemingly difficult problem has a simple solution sitting right in front of you!

Holy crap! That's me!
That was such a great installation, and absolutely fascinating to watch. Ronnie is a human who just happens to also be a well-oiled machine. That man is fluid and concise in his motions; no wasted time that I could see - and WOW - what an end product. Nicely done!!!
I've been waiting all week for part 2.................Thanks guys.
Excellent series. The way he explained each and every step, and the specifics of each device was very professionally done. Technician extraordinaire!
Ronnie really did a bang-up job! Kudos! All the modifications are really nice! I'm currently sitting here in my 2005 28' Classic at a Campground just south of Yellowstone with very few modifications accept those I installed myself (New kitchen faucet, StarLink and an Easy Start on the AC). All works well for me, but I still like looking at all the candy through the window in the candy store! Happy trails guys! Keep the videos coming!
Ronnie is such a great guy!
Ronnie is amazing. He would be awesome to work with and learn from. I was in the RV industry for 20 years (in sales and management) and he is so knowledgeable.
Truck camper guy but great to watch a craftsman
Wow, this guy is extremely good at all this.
Great video. You have such a great working relationship with each and with Ronnie.
Congrats to the lithium battery winner
Great content and it showcases the many products that are available to consumers as well as Airstream Nuts and Bolts and his ability to do a proper install of these products. I come from a back packers mentality of less is more and simplicity reigns supreme and now that we stream along, I find myself wanting more outside time and less inside time. Airstream appealed to me because of its simplicity with no slide outs, no generators and no fussy electronics to fiddle with. For folks like me this is too much but for others, this is a great example of how to do it right. Thanks again for a great episode and wishing you safe travels together.
This is quite the innovative shop. Huge props to this place!
I may need to buy an Airstream just so I can have Ronnie work on it. He is a true professional. Really enjoyed this series.
100% first class premium install!
We do not have a travel trailer but it is impressive to watch the meticulous quality of Ronnie’s work performing the upgrades, mods, and installs. Congratulations on the improvements to the Airstream.
Ronnie is the man!!
Found the pink flamingos at Tractor Supply just in case Ronny needs more.
Still waiting for the promised cost breakdown

I'll give it to you. It was 100% free to them! They admitted that all the products were given to them for free and I'm sure Ronnie's service was also free so he could get the publicity. KYD hasn't paid for anything in years!
That Airstream is OFFICIALLY pimped to the max.
I love to watch talented and passionate craftspeople. Great work.

Yeah, they get provided with everything for free, including installation, and then try to pretend that their renovations are affordable. This channel has become completely unrealistic for most RVers.

I'm not rich and I'm not famous but I am ordering the lift kit for my trailer since I was able to see how it was properly installed. Also checking out the skylights. Episodes like these give DIY peeps good ideas and good products instead of spending so much time and resources researching. I'm surprise so many other people aren't following Airstream Nuts and Bolts business practice, and open their own shop. Get some proper training and just be very good at any one of these project in this episode. Awesome episodes. PS: I have a AAS degree in Marine Maintenance Technology. Ronnie is very impressive!
Hey Marc, forget about your fancy, new Airstream... I wanna hear more about that floor sweeper, scrubber, buffer, polisher Ronnie was piloting at the end of the video!!! 🧼 👍 😉
Hey, Great video he great tech. Oh Here's a FLORIDA TIP for yeah. If its hotter inside then out run fans and equalized the temp first. Then put A/C on this is why the roof top units don't last as long and fail. This hack works for cars too.
Great job Ronny!! He is amazing. The quality of his work is incredible. Hope you enjoy your Airstream now that Ronny has performed his magic. See you all next week. Safe travels ❤
Wow! So amazing! I have been watching since the first episode! You have really inspired me and our 5 (soon to be 6) kids to get out and explore. I see an airstream in our future.
Ronnie, your shop and skill set is amazing. This was amazing to watch you work. Enjoy the ride Trish and Mark. Loved the flamingo prank 🦩
Excellent!! What an exciting build you guys are so lucky to have him, so smart and professional, jealously happy for you
Thank you. Blessings
Awesome job Ronnie. Glad yall got your upgrades and took us along. This was very enjoyable.
Excellent.
Very clean install!
Awesome video! Fantastic work!
Great job!!! Fantastic! Love it!
I loved watching!!! And Congratulations to the winner! ❤

What an awesome setup!! Great job Ronnie!!
Only one word, Amazing!
SUPER IMPRESSIVE...
Great video as always thanks so much.
Thanks to you four people, I had a very good time and it was very instructive since we are shopping for a small class A. I’m very happy that you are now very well equipped like that.
Love the flamingos!
Sweet Mods!
Dream build for sure.
Awesome videos! Learned so much! Ronnie is brilliant! WOW! He is an incredibly hard work. He KNOWS RV’S! What type of and shade of tint is on your Airsteam? Thanks for taking the time to do these videos.
Awesome!!
Great video as usual, Ronnie is awesome.
Just found you guys and really enjoyed the 2 part video on your upgrades and solar build!
Love watching this guy work. When passion and knowledge combine like this it becomes performance art. The video editing helps too.
just my opinion here but Pat Goss already said that mechanic shops of good mechanics are always really clean, and he must be great because his shop is super clean. He talks with so much common sense solutions and seems to be worth the money.
Ronnie is amazing!
Amazing!🤩
Wow, this guy is very precise and good working on this upgrade! Acolades to this firm Marc!
Happy Sunday.
Great episode and Ronnie is so knowledgeable in so many areas! However you promised that you would discuss the cost of the upgrades (to the average owner). Please do so. Thanks!
Very well made, documented and informational video. Thank you so much for your time and effort.
Totally awesome and entertaining guys! And Ronnie is definitely a class act! 😎
Nice setup and Ronnie has an impressive set of tools and a nice shop
I got my shirts the other day and I am excited about starting my summer to remember.
very very impressive. Nice build out, and super informative. thank you.
Happy Sunday

I don’t own an Airstream but lived all the info in this video. Safe travels and happy trails!
Me too. That was a long video for me. Fun stuff. Good luck with all your new trinkets. Stay safe.
Good info about the two lithium batteries. I've got an 1800w inverter so I am good to go!👍👍 Can't wait to see where we're going for next weeks episode!
Pure class. Your brand shines through everything: camera work, editing, music., Personal style, humor… hot wife. Just loved it. Got my sub.
Ronnie has the right tool for everything! The floor polisher is the ticket. He’s got a good sense of humor too! Those aircraft air vents looks like they will actually help you feel the air compared to what was there. Ok, see ya next Sunday 😇😇
Too funny!!! Great episode!!!
I'm not an RV'er, but thoroughly enjoy each and every episode. It's one of my week's highlights.
Ronnie is a genius. Is there anything he can't do with RV mods :).
