*Hi Uncle Josh!* This is the kind of camper I'm looking for! Rockwood did a LOT of great things here! *2024 Rockwood 2516S Travel Trailer* *What I love:* - That front kitchen is AWESOME!!! Great big window, and a nice amount of counter space! - Beautiful interior design. - Cuttle compliant sofa! YES! - Like seeing the side tables bolted to the walls of the slide for the Dine-ofa. - Nice little pantry. - Dual entry doors! I'd like to see this more often on RV's. - Good size oven. - Good size fridge for a trailer this size. - Bed slide, with a TRUE QUEEN! It's almost like a mini flat-deck fifth wheel. - Like that mini-barreled ceiling. Great idea! - Awesome, roomy porcelain throne - love it! - 30# propane tanks! Thank you Rockwood! - LOVE torsion suspensions! Wish they were on EVERY trailer. *What They Can Do Better:* - Put the struts back on the kitchen doors! Or at least make them side-open, like most kitchen cabinets. *Deal Killers:* - Never gonna buy a trailer with a radius shower. Sorry. *Conclusion:* - So many AWESOME features and ideas on this trailer! If it weren't the radius shower, it would be a serious contender. - Still, Rockwood is giving you a lot for the $$$$ here. Not a good choice for me, but I still respect what they are doing. - Keep up the GREAT WORK there Rockwood! You are THE BEST Uncle Josh! Show us as many Rockwoods as you can! I really appreciate that company.

Just looked at this last week. That theater seating is SMALL they could still do the tables and have a wider seating situation. I know the Salems aren't on the same build level, but I was more impressed with the 169fxs for lounge area and bedroom storage. However, this one's kitchen is great.

[@gingercrowe4580]

Actually went back to the RV store and looked at this again and found one with the older version of theater seats. It totally changed my opinion of the model. For the better! 99% sure I'll purchase in the next few weeks.

[@tonybrinson564]

FINALLY, a decent floor plan. I good camp in this , sure would like to have about a foot longer and lose the oven . But I really like this plan.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I remember when ovens used to actually be optional in mini lites. I often ordered the small ones without to maximize storage

[@jamesshort8318]

Just went to look at a 2023 at the local dealership, the four things I saw that changed for 2024 were the single bowl kitchen sink, the tables on the loveseat, the slam latches on the exterior storage. and the 2-way opening refer with a glass front. I like them all. Sorry anyone would to have to install struts on the overhead kitchen cabinets but to keep cost down it was probably necessary to delete as standard equipment. Overall I really like the layout with the two private living areas, allows one spouse to read or sleep, while the other watches TV or works. You didn't mention the azdel in the walls, but you did well on the suspension. Good job Rockwood! Thanks for the reviews Josh, you're killing it! So glad that Bish's keep your program going.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I try to hit different things on different vids. It’s actually not azdel specifically now Still composite. Just not the azdel brand specifically

[@carolwaid9237]

My 2023 overhead kitchen cabinets open to the side (and stay open ☺️ ) but I would love to have that single bowl sink. We took out the table that it came with & leave it at home and use tv trays if we eat inside. This really is a great model.

Bedroom entrance to bathroom is private like a master bedroom thats good butttt no likey having to exit the bedroom pass the bathroom if it's not occupied to enter the living room. Or if bathroom is occupied I would have to exit the trailer to then use the other entry door to enter the kitchen. Thats a deal breaker.

[@slamboy66]

I like the heated storage in the kitchen.🤔🤔🤔

[@RothePhoenix]

The first thing I'd probably do to this is take out that extra shelf next to the bed on the back wall of the camper. With that slide so deep that's one more thing to crawl over to get in bed. Always like front kitchens.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Thank you!

[@johnnyquest8710]

Maybe the Big Fleetwood Mac burger might become the favorite Breakfast in America item? Anyways…. Fickle as I am about being tickled by the new models coming out this one is cool 😎 Great length and weight, love the slide outs in living room and the bedroom, the bedroom separation through the parlor of poopie really makes the bedroom feel like it’s a completely distinct room of it’s own. Great kitchen space and refrigerator, personally a Microwave/Air Fryer would suit me better. But how about the solar panels, are they going to offer more than 200w? (or maybe I missed hearing that) Cheers Mate

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

200 W solar is the base standard. You can add a second panel from the factory, pretty easily or aftermarket. If I’m not mistaken, they do also offer their big power package on this one as well

[@michaelschoon1884]

Glad to see they've finally adopted the use of slam latches! Here's a thought regarding the window shades in the doors, and not just Rockwood, but all brands. And, yes, I know there's going to be costs associated with this idea. What if they made the upper portion of the screen, on the screen door, attach with magnetic strips, like the screen wall on some toy haulers? Then you could adjust the window shades without having to go in and out of the camper.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

They used to have a system where you could adjust the shade from the inside years ago. It work fantastically yet was almost universally disliked. Never made sense to me

[@avsfan80459]

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

TY for the input. I've noticed a few weird table heights recently

[@AGB_2000]

I have a 23 Flagstaff Micro Lite 25FKS that is the non bed slide version of this camper. There are a few differences, but generally similar specs. I measured the tongue weight at a about 1000 lbs after adding a second battery and loading the trailer for a trip. That is the reason I chose a 3/4 ton vehicle to tow it. Being limited to under 400 lbs for passengers and cargo in the truck was a pain. I ran a full season with a 1/2 ton and it was not a good feel overall, even with a weight distribution hitch. The 3/4 ton is just so much better at hauling a trailer when your actual tongue weight is closing on 1k lbs. That front kitchen is amazing though, I love ours.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

TY for the hitch weight intel

[@AGB_2000]

@@JoshtheRVNerd Forest River optimistically says 814lb hitch weight, but most of your storage is in the front with the kitchen. The battery weight is right on the tongue so that is a factor as well. Adding a full load of water can help to an extent, as will loading over or behind the axle. The 450lbs of water only lightened the tongue weight by about 20lbs. The bed slide and the 20lb propane tanks instead of the 30lb is probably the reason the tongue weight on the 2516s is 36lbs lighter than my 25fks.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

@@AGB_2000 814lbs may be 100% dead empty bone dry as a base model off the production line but as you indicated by the time it's loaded that should not be expected as a real world hitch weight

Thank you Mr. Nerd. My magic wand alteration would lose the double vanity (or thin it down) and 6 inches or so on the bathroom counter and the pantry/coat closet and put in a non radius shower.

Hey Josh we were at the Suburban Showplace camper show and we noticed that the Flagstaff models have the hinged struts that hold up the above storage cabinet doors . Have also seen a few KZbin videos of Flagstaff models where the reviewer opened up the above storage cabinet and stayed up without his hand holding the cabinet handle. These were 2024 models. It's definitely puzzling why Rockwood does not have these hinges and Flagstaff does since they're made at the same Factory🤔

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Those were either older ‘23 models the dealer was trying to offload marked as 24’s (which is a gross practice that happens) or early early 24’s that weren’t yet updated and built to 23 specs still The Rockwood and flagstaff models are the same. Same equipment. One doesn’t get something the other doesn’t.

[@TanyaRando]

Great kitchen for this size camper, think I'd struggle to use the microwave as it seems so high. I agree about the struts for the high cabinets. The living space is basic but comfy, and there's pretty good storage. Do you think there's room for a combi washer/dryer in that closet by the door? I think it may even be better to have a better bathroom than that closet. I like the nice big medicine cabinet. The bedroom has room to get dressed - bonus! I'm curious about why travel trailers have 2 outside doors, but the great big 5th wheels have 1, it would give you so much more flexibility if the door in the bedroom wasn't there, you'd get a pretty good cupboard in that space. I definitely like the little tables on the theatre seating. #nerdherd #rvnerdherd #thanksnerd I really enjoy watching these videos, thanks Josh

Vast majority of RVs do not have W/D units or hookups for them. In this size W/D hookups pretty much don't exist due to a lack of space for them They're most common in larger fifth wheels but some larger trailers have hookups for them as well

[@CF542]

I'm not a huge fan of front kitchen's but I have to say Rockwood did a great job with this one. Outside storage is not great but I'd say it's adequate. I still wish the industry would at least give the option of outside folding steps. Can't stand those stable steps!

Wish Rockwood had windows that actually allow a breeze to blow through

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I'm almost surprised they've stuck with frameless for so long

[@theramseyhouse]

But if the bed is in a slide, can you sleep in it during a Wal/Crackerdock stop?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Not sure on the speed rating for those tires but our local folks at www.bishs.com/contact-us can verify for sure

[@theramseyhouse]

​@@JoshtheRVNerd huh?

[@theramseyhouse]

I didn't even ask about tires or tire ratings! Can you sleep in the bed with the slide closed? If not, you cannot sleep there if you stop overnight at a Walmart or Cracker Barrel.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

@@theramseyhouse I'm guessing I left the reply on the wrong comment 🤦🏻‍♂ LOL Now I'm wondering who else DIDN'T get an answer! MFG doesn't test for using any of the slides when closed as it turns out. Currently in the towable world I've only ever seen Brinkley allow for that on bed slides

[@theramseyhouse]

​@@JoshtheRVNerd Yeah, that's what I figured. In this case, it makes this RV "look" a lot better for people who travel with RVs than it really is. Otherwise, this would have been a great floorplan for us. For those of us who are weekend warriors or who like (or need) to travel around the U.S. - that's a large percentage or your customers I would think - the towables in this 26-30ft class are great size for that class of owner. You'd think an RV company which could develop and test slides that is travel stop/Waldock friendly in this size range that it would be a great competitive advantage. But I'm not a manufacturer... it just seems to make sense to me.

[@lorawtn1]

Thanks nerd 😁

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

No problem

[@pemarongae5809]

Love love love. Just wish they didn’t waste precious real estate on the second door. I think the shimmy space would be ample for anyone ordering this model.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Considering it’s a walk thru I think that makes sense

[@texillini1]

John Cougar Gonna Camp 😄 Second spare tire 🛞 👍 Would probably be better if they had installed that other new style of hand rail.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I love that name lol

[@jimknox6139]

What is the purpose of the second door? Looks like the rear window is also an emergency exit.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I don’t really know. I actually think this floorplan could be a little bit better without it. But I suspect it’s for bed and Bath access in transit.

[@laurakilmer8652]

We have the one 2 feet shorter, we love it. and have had No Problems. its a 2021

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Nice! TY for sharing :)

[@Julie-5861]

Why are all these campers using more formaldehyde in these units.

[@MrBreeze2024]

Hey Josh, would you try to get your hands on a 2513 and 2515 model Rockwood and do some reviews on those please

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I had the first vid ever on the 2515 here m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5-biYKtl6akeZI

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

My 2513 is out of date but I have some footage here m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqWpoY2hZdOKq8k

[@jamesblond150]

Josh! I have a 2021 MiniLite with theater seats. Those lagoon tables are just what we need. Can I buy those seperately?? we have the big dumb table that is a PITA.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Quite possibly. Our parts team may be able to assist. They usually need to request the parts off a specific VIN from Rockwood so we may be able to reference an on-hand unit

[@lasaints6502]

Hey Josh, It seems like many of the manufacturers are adding a windshield on travel trailers. We are researching a new travel trailer and that windshield seems to be on just about everyone we like. My concern is if it breaks a couple years from now, how will I get it replaced. Has your company seen any issues with them cracking or replacements?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

They can break. It’s not common but not impossible. Our stores can get a replacement for you

[@danaboatman954]

Really like it. Where do 😂store the camp outside rug?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Under the bed or truck bed most likely

[@danaboatman954]

@JoshtheRVNerd would likely fit in the truck but not sure about the bed, but would give it a try.

[@lisadeclue8822]

Or in the vertical space behind the fridge?

[@crystalsnider6633]

Hey NURrrrrrrRrrrrrRrrrrrrrrrrrD! I paused your vid at the BEST moment. It should be your new logo! Where can I send it and can you pleeeeeeeese share??? 🙏

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Any of my social links

[@jeandryja6992]

Nope it isn’t a CPAP friendly bed and the radius shower is a no go.

[@hificat101]

Looks like it trades a little roominess for coziness. My one concern is how that bed has to fit under the edge of the wardrobe. What happens if it doesn't quite make it? Could it break your slide?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Factory bed fits fine. You’ll want to be careful of aftermarket bedding to ensure a proper fit

[@sladesmith6975]

I wish you could get rid of second door and extend closet

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Would be great I think

[@jeffdiggs6318]

That's a Mini LITE!?!?! Looks pretty hefty to me...

[@robertlittle8672]

Atleast use friction hinges, instead of having nothing at all,we use them on boats in place of pistons for cost issues alot. Better than getting bonked on the head. Or your fingers.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]
