[@TinyTexanAdventures]

Thanks for the info. It’s fun to see what changes are being made. I like the solar light and the converter that can switch from different batteries automatically 😍

[@tommyrantsrv]

Hi Christie! Yes the converter is great news. Also, I’m thinking the wired light could remain and the solar one could be added and mounted somewhere else if desired. Thanks, I enjoyed hearing from you.

[@0HARE]

Wow, this was very interesting, and timely! I’m seeing this on Saturday, June 10, 2023. We are due to pick up our new Casita on Thursday, June 22, 2023. I sure hope all these new features will be on our new Independence. I’ll be checking with our sales rep, Tyler, to get this all dialed in. Happy Camping!

[@tommyrantsrv]

That’s great news Allen! I’m sure Tyler will do what he can but it may be beyond his control. Even if you don’t get the exterior upgrades it sounds like you’ll probably get that new inverter! I’d ask about that because it would allow you to change the battery type on the fly. Have fun with your new Independence!

Tommy, thank you for taking the time to show us the few up-grades to the late 2023 & 2014 Casitas. I to think the up grade to the inverter makes good sense. Best regards, Bob from AZ

[@ralphp3057]

@@tommyrantsrv One thing I don’t like is that outside light . I own lights similar. It is too bright . And half the time they don’t work properly! Just my opinion of course. Have a great Sunday.👍😁

[@tommyrantsrv]

@@ralphp3057 Good morning Ralph. A couple of thoughts: The brightness could be a blessing and a curse. An amber lens seems like a good idea. Also, if you could tilt it toward the trailer it would cast a smaller field of light. It might not be too bright on the low setting. One good thing is that it should be easy to reach up and wipe the solar panel clean. Enjoy your Sunday Ralph!

Wow, good to see Jonathan again even if it is through a KZbin video. He was the salesperson for my 2019 casita too. Good to see niche makers like casita and scamp are slowly but surely adapting new features and upgrades. Wish they had put in a 2-way refrigerator without the need for those 2 big external vents. But still glad the fridge cabinet become smaller because of the new fridge. Wondering what is the size of the new fridge and if the new cabinet is made from a new mold.

What does the kitchen sink faucet look like now? I like the that the bubble levels and the big screens come on them.

[@btorr2945]

Some nice new features. Should add them to your online store. One suggested new feature would be a parts/tech support that would actually answer the phone and/or return emails. Would be interested in more options if I knew compatibility and availability. Just tired of calling and writing getting no feedback.

[@Paintbl99]

I love these trailers - really interested in the heritage with the double set of bunk beds

[@tommyrantsrv]

They’re a lot of fun. The Heritage is the least in demand but people who have them love them! Thanks for your thoughts and I hope you get a Casita if that’s what you want!

[@michellegarry1872]

Hey Tommy! I wonder if that outside solar light can be added on. Mine’s a 22 model so I just missed it. Also the water pump light and the bubble levels. That slide out tray for the battery sure is pricey. But I can tell you that battery must weigh 250 pounds! At least that’s what it feels like. And what a pain to remove and reinstall! But it sure would be handy to have the slide out. Great video! Thanks for making it!

[@tommyrantsrv]

Hi Michelle! I don’t know about adding their solar light but I’m sure you could find something close if not identical. I think that red light might save a water pump or two. And I agree with you on the price of the slide out tray. Thanks Michelle!

bonita K, Unless they have changed their policy they will deliver. If you go to casitatraveltrailers.com I believe the answer is in the FAQ. If they still do it like before, the person that delivers it will spend time showing and explaining all the features of your trailer.

Tommy. I use my Curt sway bar each time I tow my Casita. Never had a problem. Also, have you had any trouble with your Maxx air fan? Since they are still under warranty I had to call the factory. Mine has a bad computer board that causes it to turn itself off when in use. They are sending me a replacement at no charge. FYI.

2010 Spirt Deluxe....need new door and outdoor light (push button view light). Also need a cabinet door replacement.....any help? Tried company but no help yet.....

[@tommyrantsrv]

Ron, if you need a new entry door you’ll have to go through Casita and I don’t know if they stock doors from previous models so I’m no help there. If you need an outdoor light to replace the old one look on Amazon and I’ll think you’ll find a white oval shape one that comes with clear and amber lenses. Cabinet door? If you can’t get it from Casita try a small cabinet shop and they should be able to match the existing ones. Sorry but that’s all I’ve got.

[@CaptainRonAhoy]

@@tommyrantsrv I really appreciate you giving it a go. Just thought they may have that info at co. for a replacement light, even if it doesn't match looks wise, but similar dimensions etc. so I wouldn't have to drill new holes. Hopefully, they'll reach out on the other stuff.......thanks again....

[@wb5lxj57]
