No we don’t want to get blacklisted. 😅

I still love it. It's been working great and super easy cleanup. I definitely recommend it.

Yeah I couldn't believe there wasn't a video on RUclips when I made this. Turns out mine was the first : )

Now we have a new one on. Lippert did not warranty it since well outside a year. Cost us about $1150 including part to fix. Side bonus is that jack gives us about 4” more ground clearance.

@@EricFischnaller It's a shame that they couldn't help even just a little bit but glad you got it and have a better model one. Maybe their just baiting you to buy more upgraded ones to replace the others with... OLT

@@OurLicencetoTravel Yeah in a way I’d love to replace the other 3 but at $700 ea for parts alone it’s a bit prohibitive

@@EricFischnaller Ouch! OLT

@@ldj51 Grand Riviera has a good location but is sandwiched in between two apartment complexes. One looks okay the other looks cheap. The lot design is very poor with all lots having a 90 degree angle from the street compared with others on an angle in the area. The roads around are very busy at times. The base price of a lot then was $150k not sure if they’re the same price now but Lake Osprey is a much nicer facility far more beautiful for about $25k less. you can build up to a 1200 sq ft home if you wish on the lots.

@@QuadTap yeah Riverstone is doing a lot of things right. I’d buy one. One of the odd things that has been a problem for me specifically is their interior doorways are not standard residential doors. They’re like 30” x 76” which is odd on a wall that’s 10-11’ tall. I have to watch it or I’ll hit my head walking through them. Having to duck in my own home is a bummer. DRV hasn’t been doing anything new design-wise for years. I wonder if the Thor group will kill off the brand in the long run.

@@QuadTap I’m actually more interested in the Brinkley model R and I that will start releasing in late 2025 or 2026. They told us at the factory tour they have plans for a full body paint full profile luxury model in a few years. Their line will eventually spell RIGZ

@@FishTalesusa I knew they were spelling something out... The full paint Gs look outstanding with the paint going through the slide side walls... It will be interesting to see what they will do with a max quality line. Quality control aside it's a great time to be watching the industry.. we plan to go the Tampa supershow in January.

it is a nice spot and literally 1/2 hr from Eugene. The upper McKenzie is even prettier - and a lot more action whitewater-wise. See my previous video for that one.

Yeah it’s pretty awesome best close to Eugene. If you like this try the North Umpqua.

I'm also very curious how you guys like the RV park after 1 year ownership. The reviews are very hit and miss on ownership. Would love to hear what you guys think now.

Compared to the Walmart in our hometown of Eugene OR at least Bensons Walmart has groceries. The location of your lot will have a big impact on your enjoyment of Legends. We were on the South side furthest from the freeway but our RV is also very well insulated. Right now we’re only maybe 100 yards from the edge of I-5 and a truck stop and we can barely hear anything.

@@EricFischnaller - Thanks For The Reply. It's Nice That You Can Enjoy Your Lot Indoors.

@@PropheticPlaces-rm9lp yeah the idea of quiet while outside is something that's a little missing with this place. We don't have a lot there for a plethora of reasons several that you outlined. Still, it's a beautiful place to visit.

@@EricFischnaller - Interesting, I Never Knew There Was A Walmart That Didn't Have Groceries.

@@AndyHess-x5q yeah we’ve practiced a bit at not interrupting each other this is an early video… 😀

@@rickjobs638 yeah we’re pretty happy with how it came out. Great place to spend time

Yeah I think we already talked about this but it was a while ago. I definitely want to go back and visit the national park. I’d also like to visit the corvette museum.

Someone is renting over the summer while we’re gone. Not sure what our plans are after that. We’re sticking to this side of the country after our big trip last year.

Our 2021 Tiffin RW had a 900# OCCC which includes occupants and cargo - including fresh water. So it's a very light carrying capacity. 2022 and later models the company used some lighter components to lighten up the overall rig so 1000 or 1100 might be possible. Have them photograph the yellow sticker on the B-Pillar of the driver's door to conform 100%.

@@FishTalesusa thank you for the info. I think you helped us make our decision, we would have at least 850lbs without anything else in it. 3 adults plus 2 dogs

@@loisappuhn9483 yeah it's a bit of a killer with these particular vehicles. The Mercedes diesel is tremendously efficient but not really designed for a full motorhome's appearance and carrying. As a Class B Van they work pretty well but don't include full wall slides etc. A good alternative is the Thor Gemini 24JG or something similar that's built on a Ford Truck Chassis. It's a lighter-weight vehicle that should still get decent gas mileage and has a more reasonable OCCC. That being said, it's definitely not the quality of the Tiffin.

Being that it is electronic, I would not recommend leaving it out in the rain I never do.

Not too bad. The AC right above your head while trying to watch TV is loud. We didn’t use it too much. Inside the Generator is just a low hum. Sitting at the patio side it’s a bit annoying.

The force is a great boat but for me I absolutely needed a Force XL and they only made them a short time back in the early 2000s. Impossible to find used. It would be hard to justify the 2.5 times cost between the Viper and the Force. Quality of the Viper is excellent. Second season in use probably 150 river miles of class 3-4 and it’s still like new.

Thanks. It came out so well. We're super happy with the project.

Yeah I tried a bunch of stuff but this is what actually worked. Hope it works well for you.

Honestly not a lot there on I-10. We’d like to visit during the ballon festival

It is a genuine concern. The 900# of weight is mostly important in transit where it could impact whether an insurance claim might pay or not. If you and your spouse, your clothing items, dishes and small appliances, food, bedding, pet, weight of tow bar if hauling a toad, etc are going to go over weight than it could be an issue. Carrying water was our biggest concern. We never carried more that 33% in fresh tank because we couldn’t and still be under weight.

Looks like you guys are doing ok. Sending a hug!

We put in and took out at Cypress Bend Park. In hindsight we should have paddled down to the tube chute on the Comal but we didn't know about it and our dogs had been in the house too long as it was.

@@FishTalesusa awesome thanks for the info. appreciate it.

Seems like it would be but we got hit by a 6,000 lb Toyota mini van that was going 45mph broadside and was still able to open and close the door, roll the window up and down. A better situation than a typical small car. A LOT better than a motorcycle - which is the definition of a casket on wheels.

Yeah it's super fun too. I wish someone made one that was truly waterproof and capable of being ridden in the rain or through puddles etc. Even my new Emove Cruiser which is far more resistant to the water isn't "waterproof" like a regular bicycle is.

Working great now got it fixed at a local brake shop

Won’t fit on the back of our truck

That’s handy if we’re ever there.

How many miles on it?

Didn't you say 34k

@@jlott355 yeah only 34k super low miles for a 2017

Apparently it’s rusted out. There’s surface rust on the rear swing arm and the front struts. The car was in NYC for 3 years

the new one will have 35K. Zippy had about 55k on it when the lady ran into us.

@FishTalesusa I thought somebody hit you. Not you somebody. What r you getting? Another "Zippy".

@@jlott355yep have a 2017 on order should get it next week.

yes he definitely did.

Yeah it came out really nice.
