We have the same model. You should know that the TV may fall off the bracket if you hit bumps. It's a flaw in the TCL TV frame. The Back panel of the TV will sheer away from the main body / screen area. You can re-enforce this by using a short bunngi cord. Hook each side to the bottom of the main screen. There indents there just behind the face. Have it suspended over the top of the metal swing arm. This helps to support the weight while going down the road. Thanks for the video.

This wS one of the Best Travel Trailer Videos I've Seen! I always watch h Josh's videos. I've been contemplating buying a RV Travel Trailer for three years now. What made your video so interesting is that he actually showed how the water flushes, the outside doors open & she demonstrated flushing the commode, how large the shower, how not to break your eggs, and how to use your storage areas wisely! Very Informative, Helpful and a Very Good Job. Thanks.

That is an amazing floor plan for a smaller trailer. We have a GD 19RLE. We had a heck of a time deciding between the 17MKE and the 19RLE that we purchased. Still love both models. We are obsessed with our Imagine as well, awesome rigs. One upgrade we did was replacing the window in the door with one you can actually see through. It also has a blackout blind to give privacy when needed. Enjoy and have fun.

The magnetic knife racks are great, but you may learn that it would be better to have the handles up and the blades pointed down - that way they won't "slide" down as you go over bumps. Also, keep any liquids in your cabinets (like cleaners, etc.) in bins that will hold liquid if the bottles break or spill while traveling. Ikea is a great place for things that work well in RV's. Cheers!

We also tow with our Grand Cherokee Trailhawk with the 5.7L HEMI. We stay in the flatlands here in SE Louisiana and small hills of SW Mississippi. We would get a bigger tow vehicle if we planned to go to where there are bigger hills than in SW Mississippi, but for now, it's like the the camper isn't even back there. A good WDH with sway control is a must, which I see y'all have.

@StacieS2253 жыл бұрын
@@DylanGorman We never have anything in the tanks when towing. The cargo capacity of the Trailhawk, due to it being a 4x4 and a HEMI, is abysmal (1,053 lbs.), so pretty much only enough wiggle room for the tongue weight and my husband and I, with our clothes and toiletries. We don't need much, so the camper is basically packed with the must-haves, and we don't get anywhere near GVWR for the trailer (UVW for ours is 5128 lbs and GVWR is 6995 lbs...we aren't even to 6000 lbs loaded, maybe 5600 lbs). Gas mileage, per my husband (who does the driving) is around 11-12 mpg. Would be a little higher if I drove because hubby has a heavy foot and I usually range 2 mpg more than he does.
