2023 Grand Design Reflection 324MBS First impressions ( 17 day camping review)

#granddesignrv #fordsuperduty
First video of our thoughts and initial impressions of using our 2023 Grand Design Reflection 324MBS 5th Wheel. I be posting another video on how it tows and an end of season review of this trailer being towed by our 2023 Ford F-350 Tremor high output diesel.

Thanks for posting your thoughts on this model! I think you are the first actual user of this model to post your thoughts…. This is the exact model we are looking to get so glad your liking it so far!

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for posting, more videos to come on it. We have 22 days in it now. Its a nice trailer!

Great video by an actual user. We just purchased this camper and so far love it. As soon as you got to the part about the griddle hose I ran out to check mine and sure enough it is run the same way so you saved me at least one headache!

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Glad it was helpful!

[@chasemcrae8607]

Totally agree, this is a great option for a bunk house while not being 42 feet plus! Good review

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching, and I appreciate your comments.

Thanks for the vid. I didn't quite have enough truck for this model so we got a 31MB. Love it but it wasn't without a few bugs. One of which took 3 tries to fix. A leaking Nautilis system. But its all good now. One thing I'm going to change is the steps inside. I saw a vid where this guy created a shoe space underneath. I also found out you can add a dimmer to the ceiling lights in the living area. Not a fan of the furion water heater. Michigan State Parks you do a lot of dry camping and i feel it takes to much water to get up to temp. That and it seems to be a propane hog. No electric option like our last two coaches.

Thanks for the video. We have the same rig and really enjoy it. I was surprised to hear you say the table is solid. Ours is not and we have a warranty ticket to remedy. The refrigerator travel arrangement is different in ours. It came with a 2 X 2 X 12 plastic channel the bridges the two doors together. We’ve never had an issue with either door opening. Also, our wires leading to the battery box travel through a sealed hole in the back of the lid.

Good to know! ya I should have the dealer look at this! Thank you for watching!

Agree about the dump valves but that is a VERY common issue on many different brands.

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching! This is our first trailer with cable valves!

[@user-pn1cd6dm1h]

Adding the gate valve at the final sewer termination should allow you to mix the two gray tanks. Insure the black is closed, but when you open the two grays, they should equalize. Since most folks fill the shower first, it should give you a little more practical capacity when not on full-hookups.

Great video thanks for sharing all the great feedback!! What type of truck do you pull this trailer with?

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching sir! I have a 2023 F350 Tremor HO diesel. If you check out the channel I have several videos talking about the tow truck also! Enjoy!

[@rufushusky]

Great review, just wondering any plans to run this across a scale camp ready? See what the real world pin and trailer weights are? I could see that being very helpful.

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching, I actually posted a video showing the weight on the scale, check that out! it shocked me how heavy it was.

[@rufushusky]

You are the man, thank you sir! That is very helpful.

We have a 2023 GD 2800bh and out outdoor kitchen has a metal splash/heat shield that creates a barrier between the griddle and the camper

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching, my buddy has the same trailer as you and I was surprised the 324MBS doesn't come with it.

[@cdee6096]

Hi. Can you please tell me if a 6ft adult can sleep in the bunk house?

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching, I am 6ft tall and have fell asleep on those bunks and it worked ok for me.

[@cdee6096]

@@CTECH-REVIEW One more question? Is the approx 37 foot total length from back to tip of front cap accurate?

[@1380beagle]

Have you had any issues with the sewer dump sticking out too far?

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching, thankfully no issues thus far!

[@patti8625]

Nice review, but You didn’t show us the bathroom and the bedroom 🤷‍♀️

[@CTECH-REVIEW]

Thanks for watching, I thought I included both but just a quick overview...I will do a second video so to go in more depth in some other areas!
