*I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT TO TALK ABOUT THIS!* As of this newly updated 2021 generation Rockwood Roo models now feature Azdel Composite paneling in their sidewalls like a Geo Pro! Azdel is NOT currently used in the Mini Lite, Ultralite, or Signature travel trailers or fifth wheels however. Though I suspect that'll start happening in future model year updates!

If possible, an outdoor kitchen would be nice to add to the 233. Don't know if they can find a way to make that work, but I would love that feature. Also, do they still make the model with the private back bedroom? Heard they discontinued that model. Hope not. That was a really neat floorplan.

That option for the larger compressor fridge and the inverter is a no-brainer in my book. Free refrigeration and powered outlets when boon-docking, definitely worth a few hundred extra bucks in the beginning. I assume these are the new options available for the entire line of Rockwood Roo's, 24WS included? It still miffs me that no manufacturer is installing heat pumps instead of ac units. On a model like this especially, if you are in a park on a chilly day run the heat pump, boon-docking, run the propane furnace. Make it an option at least, it couldn't add that much as a factory install.

Back in 2014, I got a Rockwood roo 21ss, and they are doing just as good as they used to, and i mean that in a good way! Just upgraded to the one in this exact video, and its amazing to have 3 popouts for the whole family to have a bed space, and still be able to keep that table usable all the time, instead of it being a bed.

The 190w solar package rockwood is offering now is something Jayco has been using for two years. It hits the statistical median of users & allows effectively indefinite use of 12v systems under normal circumstance.

Hybrid are interesting, they have a lot of space in a short box due to the beds being a close cousin to pop up camper beds. I don't mind the tent like material, I tent camp now, the main thing I worry about is putting those things away wet, we all know mother nature will sometimes dump rain or snow on the very morning you need to pack up and leave your site. I do like the advantages of the shorter size, and you can turtle if you desire or need to. Grizzly bear country would be a good time to turtle.

I would go with the absorption refrigerator then the 12v. We do a lot of parc and reserve camping up here in Canada and when you have cloud cover or rain with temp 0 to 15 degrees for days your relying a lot on those batteries for your furnace, lights, water pump and accessories. Last thing you want is a fridge that doesn’t work.. I would do the solar upgrade but keep the absorption refrigerator. We never found our fridge in our hybrid small. We vacuum seal a lot of our meals and freeze stuff, we can go 7-9 days with 2 adults and 2 children with the food… Works for us.

The option for a larger 12v compressor fridge w/ inverter and roof mounted solar panel is something every RV should be always ordered with in my opinion.

Two solar panels and the 12V compressor refrigerator is a must have, travel with it on. I love the griddle outside. A breathable tent fabric like Sunbrella to prevent condensation might be nice. I'm guessing condensation might not be a problem with the two big fans and air-conditioning. I prefer the optional table, maybe 4 6V batteries. I love the high quality.

having the 12V fridge and solar would be something that I would request.

Love all the cabinets in this one, looks like you forgot to open the linen closet in the bathroom, oh and speaking of that room....

12v fridge option What would be really cool is if the front bed could be a hard side slide out and the back 2 can be the soft side tents. Even if it makes it a little longer. Because then you can run as a hard side for bear and sound protection, but when you have to bring some big adult kids with you you have pop out bedrooms. What do you think rockwood and Josh?

A hardside slide is quite literally not possible in the model in place of any of the beds. There's not enough room for the beds to retract w/o hitting something else. * Front bed would conflict with the slide * Side & Rear beds would conflict with the bathroom I think something like a murphy bed bunk model is likely the best solution to folks seeking "hardside hybrids"

Everything has been in full production since quarantine lifted. There was a backlog of demand pent up from quarantine that decimated summer inventory supplies nationwide. To give you an idea of the 706 RVs we had in stock when quarantine lifted we currently have about 87 on hand of which a bunch have purchases pending. Everything is selling as soon as it lands. Had a Freedom Express 257BHS land the other day. Sold in less than 6 hours. We've had several used Rvs hit our consignment inventory and sell before I could even put the camera to them. I've never seen anything like it. Our lot is a ghost town, but not because we aren't ordering RVs. The MFGs just can't get them here.

Is this not a flagstaff shamrock 233s? Either I'm losing it or they are indistinguishable from each other. At least the 2022 model I was looking at is. Placement of everything and even the color scheme. Crazy.

So Rockwood is the original. Flagstaff was originally launched as a more budget-friendly version Over time they basically just merged and became the same thing. Literally. Made by the same people from the same materials in the same factories. I actually have an entire series of videos touring the Rockwood/Flagstaff Facilities here kzbin.info/aero/PLUT5NkY-l88y8EBfuRrfelT6FBe7lMQxi

I have a question about slides: In this video, you say that it is okay to sleep on the dinette with the slide closed. In a different recent video, you said that you shouldn’t walking on a closed slide. Is this due to different manufacturers and different types of slides?

Oh man, I really like this! I hadn't considered a hybrid, but my neighbor has one and I drive by it every day. Had to look up a video! This one is probably a bit much for my midsize, but looking at the Rockwood site, the smaller 183 looks like it would be within my safe limits. Do you guys carry that one?

No carpetless option at this time, though I remain hopeful and provide that feedback to them. Now that Jayco/Coachmen have gone carpetless in a LOT of campers I'd be surprised if Rockwood didn't do it in the 2022 model year, but that's just a theory.

So, super serial question. How well do those fold downs seal up? Seems like it wouldn't take long for a leak to start. How comfortable are those queen mattresses for "middle aged" folks?
@JoshtheRVNerd
@JoshtheRVNerd 4 жыл бұрын
Regarding Sealing: No different than slides. Regular seal conditioner recommended with your seasonal upkeep routines. Regarding comfort: There's no way for me to answer that question. Some people love them. Some hate them. You need to test bedding yourself to answer that I think.

@TalentDevelopment100 3 жыл бұрын
Mattresses aren't super comfy so we brought foam mattress toppers for each queen and they work great. Depending on your preference, you can go between 2 and 4 inch thickness and experiment with either the camper mattress on top or underneath or the foam mattress.
