great review for this model, very thorough. I've watched so many about this one, now that we have it. Wish I'd known about the heater beforehand, lol. Only makes sense now, cooking the bunkers. Thanks!

Very nice trailer. Lots of storage space. Your absolutely right the electric jack comes in handy. It saves your arms. Thank you Ray and your wife for taking the time to review your camping trailer.

Great video. I have a 2019 Winnebago 1700BH. This video is very useful, since the manuals are completely generic. Thank you for sharing. Blackwater flush at 15:00 was what I was looking for to confirm (many camper have it on the opposite side).

Great review, I had a similar one for over 15 years (actually was only 11ft but with same sleeping space and accessories) for travelling off-road conditions over here (no full hook up places over here so solar panel was very important) - sold it 1+ year ago and I am much more satisfied just renting houses or being on a hotel/motel because over here I have to pay a fortune just to keep the darn thing inside over the wintertime which unfortunately is longer that the summer time is over here - lol - you guys enjoy your travel and time together - and stay safe :) P.S. Kudos to your wife letting you do this and participating, not to be taken as granted - great family indeed :)

The jacks are not for leveling; they are only for stability- reducing the rocking as you walk around. Use blocks under the tires to level. The jacks will break if you ask them to support too much weight.

Great video review of your trailer!! Thanks for taking the time while on vacation to share a review of your trailer. That's a great smaller trailer. I have an older 30 ft 5th wheel trailer, all the comforts of home. Only problem is it's to large to park it at home on the side yard, short by 6 ft. I have to store it at a RV storage facility year round. Not as easy as yours to pull in and out and set up quickly. Has dual slide outs for living/Dining room and master bedroom, full bathroom. sofa bed folds out for 2 adults. I've set up cots for the kids. tons of storage. We camped at Yosemite a few years back, awesome place to visit, but camp grounds were crowded. That trip made think about downsizing to a smaller trailer or RV. I could tow jeep behind it. I do like your trailer good size and storage!!! You end up spending more time outside than inside anyway!!! Great review Ray, enjoy your trip and stay safe and watch your six!!! Reb out.

I can say from your tone and the video that if you keep up this hobby you will be getting a bigger rig! Also advice from a guy who sells a lot of tires for trailers, ditch all the cheap tires and get goodyear endurance trailer tires for your primary's and your spares.

Ray, I’d highly recommend upgrading your battery setup to two 6v deep cycle batteries in series if the mount will allow for when you can’t connect to land power, same overall power output but for a longer period of time due to amp hours.

There are lots of families on KZbin that live full time in their RV. Checking out some of their channels could give you more ideas for a solar set up for dry camping if that turns out to be your thing. I like “Less Junk, More Journey “ Great review. I couldn’t see if you had one, but if not you should put a surge protector in line from the camp ground power
