Thank you for taking time to show the beds out! Great review!

[@donnagilbertson7769]

I love the walk thru with you guys. Quick and to the point.

[@WanderingWeekends]

We try to keep ‘em relatively short… if anyone gets real serious they’ll go to the dealership ☺️

[@josephhorner3249]

We watched your video on 3109 RD and we have 2018 2970RL Imagine and we’re amazed at the changes made by Grand Design! Wish we waited! Enjoy your videos!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Ha! I know what you mean. That said if you're waiting for Grand Design to be complacent you're gonna be without an RV for a long time. It is nice to see a company actually listen to customer feedback and make requested updates/changes. Ironically I shot a vid today with a 2020 version of our exact floor-plan. Tons of upgrades! Keep an eye out for that one. It is interesting.

[@josephhorner3249]

Wandering Weekends I do agree! Grand Design does a great job! We are looking for a F250 Diesel as we are pulling with a F150 now! Enjoy your informational videos!!!

[@vanphillips1514]

Thank you so much for showing this! We were already wanting to buy this exact same model, and now we are DEFINITELY sold! Thank you!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Van Phillips it is a GREAT floor plan!

[@f1yankee]

Own it. Love it!

[@DownsizingMakesCents]

Love the flat cabinets. There needs to be less nooks and crannies to clean. I’d like to see that in our Solitude. Not much counter space in kitchen. Love all the windows. That fireplace is way bigger than needed. Could be cabinets. Looks pretty sweet. Bedroom has lots of room. Unfortunately too long for us. We still need to do a tour of our Solitude. Take care. Alice.

[@ericolson8708]

That fire place needs to actually be larger due to the furnace being 30 feet away gets drafty at 20 deg 7000btu isn't large enough

[@chrissweisberger7509]

we went to a rv show this weekend in new york and really think this might be our next model

[@WingmanNation]

Good job Cory and Brooke. Nice review and very pretty Grand Design. I love the windows but there's always a part of me that sees windows as "future potential leaks". All in all, I can see why you love this model. Hey, y'all need to join us on the show again soon!

[@WanderingWeekends]

The RV Show USA Hey Alan! We’d be happy to come on and chat again. Just let us know!!

[@OurRoundaboutLife]

Thanks for showing that model. It has to be one of the coolest layouts we've ever seen!

[@WanderingWeekends]

It really nails our camping style!

[@hamey]

You're gonna be getting a new camper. 😁 Coloring books and crayons are what I keep under our chairs. Nice rig!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Helen M. You might be right! Lord help us!! 😂

[@hamey]

@@WanderingWeekends Well, we had our first for five years. No we've got our fifth wheel and we're happy. Even happier when it's paid off. 😉

[@WanderingWeekends]

Helen M. Amen to that! 😂

[@RoaminRoadsRVChannel]

We love ours!

[@gac914]

GD seems to have a lot of nice features, and well built, (for a camper. . .) We just went to an RV show in the Chicago suburbs last Friday, and GD were about the nicest of what they were showing. With your kids, it would be the right size. With both my wife and I being retired and empty-nesters, (with the occasion of grandkids once in a while,) that one's WAY too big for us! There's a lot of campgrounds we go to where you'd need a shoehorn to get one of those in! Our's is a 26 footer, and sometimes even that one's tight!!

[@WanderingWeekends]

gac914 very true! Our state parks aren’t always accommodating for larger rigs. Isn’t a common issue but it happens.

[@gakrazykajun]

We just returned from 3 weeks in FL. Ya'll have fun at the RV show. Great looking rig and your F250 should tow it with no problems. Pull the string and get an RV show price while you are there!.

[@WanderingWeekends]

gakrazykajun not quite ready yet. Haven’t made the final decision yet. How was FL?!

[@kikik5266]

How much off are they at RV shows? We are.foing to one on Saturday.

[@drkeds01]

Excellent review, love the layout and the abundance of windows. Our 2020 2800BH has a lot of the same features (bigger fridge, peg pan storage, friction door, morryde steps on the main door). Our biggest issue was the cabinet hardware. They are somewhat sharp and have a very small grab area. Ended up changing out every one of them for something more traditional (like are in the earlier models). Just something to think about.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Kim Dunbar I can certainly see that. I am definitely a function over form person.

[@jrandyoutdoors]

Really nice review of a wonderful camper. Thanks for sharing!

[@whereyougoiwillgorving4492]

I like this floorplan. Really glad GD decided to use the rack n pinon slides. Can't stand those Schwintek slides and doubt I would buy a model with schwintek. Like what they did with Colors as well. The opposing slides really opens it up and having those trifolds would be great for guests. Definitely a possibility when we decide to upgrade from our Transcend 221rb.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Easily our favorite travel trailer floorplan!

[@motorradingaround1220]

That interior looks great and great video from you guys

[@WanderingWeekends]

Mt W it really looks better in person believe or not. Thank you for watching. It’s genuinely appreciated.

[@alexanaya973]

Oh this trailer looks amazing!! I wonder if I could find a way to move into Fort Mountain full time with this rig??? 😁

[@scottmichel9582]

Great review guys. You should really look into a 5th wheel. You have the truck, now get the rig! Lol. Brooke you did awesome on this video. I see another KYD TEAM!

[@WanderingWeekends]

scott Michel I don’t know if we have enough energy for Marc and Trish, lol. We saw so many 5ths this weekend... still travel trailer folks. How’s the driveway camping going?!

[@scottmichel9582]

@@WanderingWeekends lol, we have 2feet of snow, and its 19 degrees out. But we are still camping! We have used it all weekend. Once it gets up to temp. The fireplace keeps it pretty warm. Plus it helps that we have heated blankets in each room. Have fun, and hope to see you this summer!

[@romaldemgle5867]

That is the one we will bye next. Two years till the wife retires and we can travile more.

[@WanderingWeekends]

GREAT floorplan

[@Goodtimecampin]

Nice walkthrough, and a great travel trailer. It was nice to meet y'all at the Tampa show, we are looking forward to some more awesome park reviews.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Goodtimecampin we’re gonna rock our sticker!! Great to meet you too!!

[@MacRides1]

Thanks for the tour - really like that model. The den setup around the large screen TV is awesome. Would def need a F250 to tow it which pushes it out of my league unless I upgrade my truck.

[@resharddurdley6987]

Grand design is a strong seller in Minnesota, i love their campers and looking at the 3100rd

[@WanderingWeekends]

Love GDRV!

[@wmcnett]

Love Grand Design, but like a lot of trailers it's design is really meant for a family of 4. Our family of 5 could adapt but our current TT is a perfect fit for 5. However, I really like the GD 28BH 5er!!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Warren M two can certainly fit on the left sofa. Also, we forgot to film it but that dinette also doubles for extra TV seating. Take those two dinette chairs and face them towards the back. It works out well (although I’m getting a recliner!! Haha). Hard to go wrong with any of them really. It’s a blessing to RV regardless of floorplan! 😊

[@jshapiro34]

That refrigerator kills me because to me matching this is a 283rk Forrest river same weights just smaller but it’s only a couples camper full time.

[@jairocastellanos7790]

Awesome video… thank you guys!

[@johnogle4585]

We just looked at this floor plan as an upgrade and we love it. You mentioned yall camp in north ga. Are yall from ga

[@WanderingWeekends]

Yes! We are near Athens in Oconee County.

[@johnogle4585]

@@WanderingWeekends how cool we live in barrow co and I work for Oconee co Sheriffs office

[@coevers1962]

Saw your cards in the Grand Design trailers at the Tampa Show!

[@WanderingWeekends]

coevers1962 oh cool! Thanks for stopping by!!! How did the show treat you??

[@coevers1962]

We had a “grand” time! So many rigs to walk through. Got to meet some youtubers, bought some accessories, toured amazing Super C’s, and ran into several folks we knew. It was a much better way to spend a Friday than working!

[@richmanwisco]

We have a 2020 2800BH and it has all those things that are new to you. But what really got my attention was that dinette! Hey GDRV, how can I get that? It might be worth sacrificing the underseat storage just to have that dinette!

[@WanderingWeekends]

Yes, most of the Imagines have the upgraded exterior features. It is truly our favorite line from Grand Design.

[@Vallejo83]

Great video and tons of info

[@WanderingWeekends]

Thanks 👍

[@ScottJohnson80]

That plan is great for 2 adults, but a family of 4, it’s a bit of a pain. Yes, it sleeps plenty, and you can definitely manage with 4, but the problem comes when you are staying somewhere for a week and you don’t have that extra bedroom or room just for the kids and their clothes, and other junk that kids bring along. It would be a complete pain to have all the kids clothes, toys, games, bags, etc. in the living area. the cabinet space in the back is fine for some of their stuff, but still not enough space for a weeks worth of kids stuff. You need a bunkhouse.

[@WanderingWeekends]

Scott Johnson we’ve been in a bunk model for two years. We actually still really like it but we also know how we camp. Plenty of storage for us in this rig.

[@ScottJohnson80]

@@WanderingWeekends I do like the extra living area, but to keep from having to always put the couches back in place and fold the blankets, pick up the clothes, etc each night, we just prefer a dedicated place for the kiddos. We currently have the 3000QB, but would really like this rig...www.granddesignrv.com/showroom/2020/travel-trailer/imagine/floorplans/3250bh

[@WanderingWeekends]

@@ScottJohnson80 the big boy! The 3250 def changes the game when it comes to storage and the kids! We're eyeing the QB as well. Wish it had a bit more kitchen counter space. It'll always be something haha...

[@ScottJohnson80]

@@WanderingWeekends Completely agree. There will always be something we wished we had on one rig that the other will have. I'm really kicking myself for choosing the 3000QB over the 3250 because I really like the slideout bunkhouse on the 3250, but I just need to be happy I have what I got. Thanks for your videos. You'll never truly know how much they really help people.

[@chrisbentley71]

Perfect layout - can a 1/2 ton handle that rig or safer to go to 3/4 ton?

[@WanderingWeekends]

I’d definitely go 3/4 for this floor plan.

[@brittanicrawfordhoover4547]

How do you feel this layout is with a toddler?

[@smoretolife6668]

Very nice

[@theJoshGary]

Question... is it legal to travel in the back of an RV while it's towed? I'm assuming safety features would be required. And it may depend on which state?

[@WanderingWeekends]

It varies by state. Here in Georgia it is illegal to ride in a travel trailer. I can’t recall whether riding in a 5th wheel is allowed. Some states allow one but not the other. Weird really. Haha

[@fitdadjourney]

Boy if you could only find that 2020 pricing like is on that label....

[@WanderingWeekends]

I know right! So disheartening

[@theJoshGary]

Please... a video with the slides in? Is it still usable at that point?

[@WanderingWeekends]

You can pack the fridge, and wardrobes. The bathroom is also accessible! Very useable with slides in.

[@theJoshGary]

@@WanderingWeekends Fantastic! Thank you so much... I apologize for the bluntness, I was working and just busting through tasks. Want to buy an RV to become a digital nomad as I start my business. This was a GREAT video! One of the best I've seen. So thank you!

[@jerushafoshee4000]

Check out the 2970rl

[@WanderingWeekends]

2970 is a classic… but for our family the 3100 takes the cake!

[@briankable2713]

Liked it but I still think the 285BHTS Imagine is the best lay out in a travel trailer .

[@WanderingWeekends]

Brian Kable I believe you’re referring to the Reflection line. Imagine doesn’t offer that floor plan.

[@daviddensmore2606]

To me OT felt like the kitchen was split between two rooms and looks awkward to use. A bit of distance between the sink and stove.

[@christineboydstrongtower]

The wood work is ugg‼️ looks cheap. I like rich looking dark or cherrywood. But like the floor plan‼️👍 is this a 2020 or 2021? Price?? Thanks!!👍✨

[@WanderingWeekends]

jmc0042003 lemme see what I have saved up in these coffee cans... 😂

[@rickharks4515]

Sadly, let just say, we do love our unit, although l don think for the money that people spend on these units, somethings should be better made, ex. make the windows a tad better. Make something like wands to open the vents on the ceiling for short people. Also make the sinks out of better quality, we have noticed that they have little rust spots on them. if you don't wipe them down every time. Also a better mattress in them. Ours was so cheap we had to put a new one in, even after spending thousands of dollars on this unit. Also l think you should make the oven a bit bitter, you can only really fit something that is only 4 inches. And the table is really high,, my hubby is 6 ft and he found it was a bit to high . Ya we love all the light that comes into the unit, and the black out blinds. Although all is all this is a great unit, one main thing is,, Grand Design, should think about short people.... enough said.

[@ae4xo]

Are you going to the Atlanta show in feb?

[@WanderingWeekends]

We will be at the show this weekend (Jan 25th, 2020) at the expo center on Jonesboro Rd from 9-12!

[@mrrey8937]

Never owned a trailer or 5th wheel , what I dont understand is that the gray water tank size, I would gladly trade 20 gal extra in fresh water tank size for a reduction in gray and black water capacity. To me, that is extra time boondocking. I must be missing the ideology behind the tank sizes....

[@WanderingWeekends]

We’ve literally never used our freshwater tank. So many ways to use these units.

[@mrrey8937]

@@WanderingWeekends ahhhh, you dont boondock, got it

[@admorris11]

If you’re going that long, go 5th wheel for safety sake. That’s a looooong tt no matter what you’re pulling with.

[@WanderingWeekends]

I've pulled longer. Safety isn't an issue if you're setup correctly. My only concern would be cutting off site availability because of the length. Hasn't been an issue with a 32ft rig. 35 shouldn't be much different.

[@lifeisgood141]

It is a full time job to tow one of these sizes. I prefer the simple steps that fold under the rig. I have the solid steps and don't like it.

[@TheDarthRoaster]

Does this not come with power stabilizers?

[@WanderingWeekends]

No, and we hope they never do. When auto stabilizers break its a LOAD of money to fix them!!

[@TheDarthRoaster]

Thank you for your reply.

How much? $$$

[@WanderingWeekends]

no idea... several price increases since covid!

How much for it?

[@WanderingWeekends]

Dealers vary around the country. This unit at this show was discounted to around 35k.

[@Whatever_dude]

Nice floor plan think the bedroom sucks though

[@WanderingWeekends]

I'm actually glad they don't put bedroom slides in the Imagines. Lighter weight and one less thing to go wrong. Minus sleeping we spend almost zero time in there so it works well for us.

[@Whatever_dude]

Wandering Weekends looks like a coffin so sucks

[@MarkW69]

If all three tanks, fresh, grey and black are full then you will be overloaded per gvwr and tires. That’s even without carrying personal belongings. I don’t know why camper mfg do this?

[@WanderingWeekends]

Its a general rule to never run with tanks over 1/4 full (minus the dump station). I get what you are saying though. Some extra GVWR would be nice.

[@MarkW69]

@@WanderingWeekends Thanks, I did not know the 1/4 tank rule. I've only owned one camper and it sat at the campground all last year. Sold it and looking at new ones. Want a travel trailer and really liked the 3100 you showed on here! I still think it needs another axle or heavier axles and bigger tires!
