Majority of RV’s use a #2 sq head. I bought a box of dewalts for less than $10 that slide into my dewalt screw bit collection. And I think it’s Lippert slim rack system it looks like. Don’t have it on ours but hear it’s good. Like everything else, time will tell.

We have a Reflection and sometimes have trouble with our screen door if RV is not level. We love our Reflection. The only issue we have with it is the value on the 2nd bathroom is sometimes a problem. We are still working on resolving it. We love the looks of the Brinkley, but will probably stick with what we have. Thank you for the video!

Ruh Roh Rastro! (Broken generator) The Square bits are called "Roberts" bits, they come in sizes 1, 2, and 3. Hello RV Spy! (Agent 99?) I looked up the cost of a Brinkley Z3100 (New is $106,000.00 in Cordelia Calif - About 30 miles from my home) Wow, that Class A was nice. Happy and safe travels (Your friend Henry from Woodland, Calif. aka titaniumhen)

Glad you got the generator running! Also glad the rv community is as awesome as y’all. Glad to know our screen door doesn’t lock! lol. Brinkleys are quite nice. We saw them at the Tampa RV show. And Wild RV Life KZbinrs have one. Still had warranty work needed for defects in trim and sink etc, and fan that quit. It was a small fan in bath. I like out maxx air in living and bath. Who knows maybe next year we will be back in Bullhead City. Btw we replaced our mattress, not with a $800+ mattress but with one we had in the old camper that we liked. So far, it is awesome and it is an 8” mattress. Fraction of the cost.

Sucks to have the generator issues - thankfully the days are getting longer and you will need less and less generator :) Great thing you had good people around you to support. And getting locked out by your screen door? How crazy. We really enjoyed the walk through of the Brinkley and the Entegra - those looked very nice ... Maybe someday... Well done on this video - we enjoyed it quite a bit!

We were so thankful to have such awesome friends nearby to help us out with our generator and our so grateful that it starting working again!

You own an RV, and dont have a squar bit. They come with most bit kits. Your in qourtsite, go to a tent with vendor's and the will probably give you one, or maybe under a $buck. I keep one in my pocket with my spair change. It moves to the next pair of shorts, or pants, depending if i am nort or south.

That slide is the Lippert Slim Rack slide system. A little better then the schwintek. The brinkley I dislike the off color of the furniture. Brinkley uses the cheapest furrion stuff on the z series. Furrion fridge, furrion water heater, furrion AC al the cheapest of the cheap, also the flameless windows are so bad at letting air it. You know the main job of a window :)

MHs are hugely expensive to buy and hugely expensive to fix; plus they introduced the white knuckle driving experience to the rv crowd, for good reason. im definitely a 5th wheel person. you can drop it, n go drive into town so much easier with just a truck to park. the windows on the 5th wheel living area dont look like they would open enough to get a good cross breeze.
