There's a little space for your water cable to fit at the lower part of the door to allow your doors to be closed. Check it out, and I can't remember which door, but it's down there. Happy camping😊
I'll take a look. Thanks for the tip.
Where do you exactly port in santorini and mykonos?
Where do you exactly port in santorini and mykonos?
Where did you stay in Rome?
Hilton Rome Airport. Very convenient. 👌
What’s the name of the restaurant in Santorini? ❤
Barolo Restaurant
how did you get toilet to work?
Have the coach batteries or generator turned on.
How does it handle steep inclines?
Very well. Like butter.
Hi, first time viewer. Audio is good, scene changes are good but could use "Transitions" such as fade or dissolve. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for watching!
If the generator is shutting off , something is wrong with it. Usually the fuel pump, when it gets hot starts to cut out. Mine runs for hours with no issues. 2023 59 PX
Love this video. I can’t find the additional videos you mentioned for the Zantrex and Truma system. We just got our 23 Solis 59PX a few months ago. Spent this past weekend in the Siuslaw National Forest. See you around the McKenzie’s sometime 😊
Thanks for the reminder. I still need to get those out.
I can’t imagine the cassette toilet is anything but a potential nightmare. I have also noticed many rest stops do not allow them to be dumped. I’m sure they have had spills.
5 gallons is not light, but if you can manage, the process is definitely convenient.
Nice van ❤
26:23 - having an OJ moment.
LOL too funny!
What do you add to tank, if anything?
Any of the holding tank treatments will do the job. Personally, I use the Thetford Aqua line. You can use half the bottle. Lasts longer. www.campingworld.com/thetford-aquamax-holding-tank-treatment-spring-showers-scent-6-pack-of-8-oz.-bottles-125642.html
Is the water pump om?
No because it's connected to City Water (continuous flow). The water pump is for the Fresh Water tank.
Do you need the stinky slinky with the cassette toilet?
No, but I do use it for the Grey tank dump.
Maybe not buying it now , thanks for info
Did u have any issues with clearance of the generator below vs humps
It was an initial concern, but no issues with the clearance.
Thanks for this! I'm likely to be renting one of these in a few months so appreciate knowing what to expect.
Glad to hear! Have a great time!
Great video! Is your water heater on-demand? Gas or electric?
My water heater is a Truma Combi. Runs off propane. They also make a Truma Combi + which runs off electricity or propane.
When city water hose is connected, do you have to leave the rear door open?
Yes. Although, you can close it enough so that the door doesn't pinch your hose. If you want to close your door and still use water, just fill up your fresh water tank and disconnect the hose. That works well when sleeping at night. You can always reconnect in the morning, if needed.
@@thehealthytraveler .. thank you.
I wish they made a Travato GL with a poptop! Do you miss the bigger fridge and freezer in the Travato vs the Solis?
Bigger fridge definitely came in handy.
Were you cooking on the glass top?!
....with a countertop safe mini crock pot. The bottom stays unbelievably cool. I believe I put the link in the description.
I can't speak for the promaster, but every car I have had needs to get air in its tires in the fall when I travel from Denver to Chicago and back. I think a combination of the colder weather and the elevation change are responsible. Hopefully that is the case for you.
Agree. Definitely think it's just a case of colder temperatures.
How much can I realistically expect to bargain it for ?
Great vid. Beautiful coach.
Thanks for the tips! 😊
You bet!
❤ Thanks sir & Have A great New Year
Thanks, you too!
Nice video, would love to have learned more about your experience with your Solis.
Coming soon!
In the bathroom, he said there’s a rod for hanging your clothes, that bathroom is so small I would literally try and hang myself…lol
Breathtaking scenery friend! Absolutely stunning hike!
It is really a 7 speed tranny since 8th and 9th are locked out on on the PM. This is controlled by software and you can't adjust it.
My 2022 Promaster has the 9 speed transmission. I agree it's a great improvement over the 6 speed. My van regularly gets 20 mph combined city/hwy driving.
Hey fellow PNW guy. We are 4 months into Winnebago Roam and very happy too. We purchased in NJ and road tripped across the USA to the Olympic Peninsula where we live in July 2023. I’m new to RVs and bigger rigs but after a few days driving back east I was feeling confident and super pleased w Ram Promaster 3500 performance. Dashboard controls not entirely intuitive but not difficult either. I too like cassette toilet. I slept in pop-top several times and did well. Has light, USB and 110 outlet (I think). The plumbing system controls are idiot proof. I used compressed air to winterize and it’s pretty darn easy. The drain valves on bottom are readily accessible. Roam has no LP or generator and I’ve used the built in Timberline gasoline fired heater and so far it works well and easy to use. My only quibble to date is that the different controls for inverter, heater, and tank/battery levels take time to figure out. Really appreciate various lighting options, multiple USBs, and adequate 110 outlets. I do wish there were some controls for the living space integrated up front. I mean at least one cabin light ! For those who wonder about about wheelchair lift, so far it’s been 99% reliable. My quibble here is way too many interlocks that prevent lift operation but that’s a discussion for another time.
Very scenic and beautiful drive! ❤
Do you turn the Truma switch under the seat back on for heat in the winter?
Yes.
Hi, very good video. I’m still not completely clear on how to leave the low point drains under the seats. Am I understanding the steps correctly here… 1st open all valves under the seat to make sure all water is emptied. 2nd proceed with the antifreeze process. 3rd close the valves under the seat. Do not leave them open? Is this correct?
Thank you for the comment. The correct order should be: 1. Open low point valves to drain water. 2. Then, close all low point drain valves. 3. Set nautilus system to Winterize. 4. Proceed with winterization.
@@thehealthytraveler yes thank you but that still doesn’t answer my question. After step 4 do I reopen the valves or do I keep them closed until the spring? Thanks again
Keep the valves closed. The only time you open the valves is to drain the water for winterizing. Dewinterizing is a different process and valves will still need to remain closed. I will publish a new video for that process soon.
@@thehealthytravelerawesome thanks
Looks good
Some people drive with the drains open to make sure they are truly empty. Also I use a n air compressor to blow out the lines. Also some people feel that's enough to do and no antifreeze is necessary except to pour some into the Grey tank And cassette toilet.
Eco hot?
If you use it, yes absolutely. If not, no worries.
Nice video! I actually think that is a very good floor plan. I would like to change my current camper Van for this model, this one looks very practical and perfect for a solo traveler. And the volta system! Just a very complete unit.
I can help you with that!
Thanks for the thorough winterizing video. My wife and I are considering switching from a 4 season travel trailer to the rig you have now. Do you do anything to protect the coach batteries? Some sites recommend removing them to a climate controlled setting and trickle charging. Not sure what is recommended by Winnebago. Thanks in advance for your recommendation.
Thank you for your comment. I haven't considered and/or haven't had the need to consider keeping the house batteries in a climate-controlled environment since I usually use the van and/or head down to AZ in the winter. With house batteries on my previous travel trailers, I've never stored them, and they seemed to work just fine after winter. However, it wouldn't hurt to keep those puppies safe and warm when not in use.
Also in your closing summary, you say to avoid running the Truma hot water heater while winterized bc that will boil the antifreeze. I'd thought that the winterization setting on the Nautilus bypassed the Truma water heater and did not fill it with antifreeze. Comment? Thanks!
Yes, you are correct. The Winterization setting will bypass the Truma Water Heater. However, as a safety pre-caution, I would not turn on the water heater while in winterization mode because 1. it's not needed (there's no more water in the water heater system) and 2. In the event that a small amount of rv antifreeze somehow gets into the truma water heater. Again, these are just pre-cautionary measures, but it's highly unlikely you would need to turn on the water heater in winterization mode, the furnace, yes, but definitely not the water heater. I hope that helps. Thanks again for your comments.
In your closing summary checklist, you forgot to mention that you also run antifreeze into the toilet flush line.
The toilet flush line would be part of the shower/bath checklist, but yes, you are correct, you will want to make sure you flush the toilet in order to pump rv antifreeze through the toilet flush line.
I couldn’t see what you turned under the seat and what you mean by, “turn that off”… do you mean close? If so, which way is open and which is closed/off? Lichtsinn seems to not turn off the truma switch under the seats while Colonial RV does. Otherwise, your video is excellent… would love to see a quick follow-up video on my questions 😊! Your video is the best I’ve come across so far! 👏 👏 👏 Now I can winterize my PX!
Thank you and apologies on the Truma low point drain valves. There are three drain valves and a yellow water heater drain valve. You'll open these to drain before winterizing. Once drained, close all of them , then you can winterize. During the video, I was making sure those valves are still off, but I was mentioning that you can open the water heater drain valve to make sure no rv antifreeze is present. Then, close the valve back up. Hope that helps. Happy winterizing!
@@thehealthytravelerkind of. Follow up video? 😁
Do you have to leave your back door open when hooked up to city water? I didn’t see a way to route the hose
Unfortunately, yes.
@@thehealthytraveler ok, thanks for the quick response, much appreciated
I thought there was a gravity feed port by the sink. I was wrong. Dang. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for a great video. Your info about the generator makes sense and is new to me. I too have the same unit as yours. I’ve put down a carpet runner from Costco in the back to try to minimize the dust on the vinyl floor. Happy camping!
Glad it was helpful!
New to RVs. We have the Roam w pop top x 3 months now. So far we love it. I’m looking for alternative to winterizing. Flushing w antifreeze solution is not desirable especially since I plan to use my van through the winter in PNW. Several people have told me they just drain all the water out, including low points. Any experience or thoughts?
Definitely drain the water and low points, but I would still recommend using RV antifreeze. It's non-toxic and if there is any water left in the plumbing, the RV antifreeze will protect it from cracking in the winter. It's also safe to flush the toilet with antifreeze instead of water if you're going to use it in the winter.
Thanks for the Video. I have some questions that nobody ever addresses. 1. How do you know when your fresh water tank is full? 2. When boondocking and you have extra water in containers how do you pour it to your fresh tank? 3. I can’t figure out how to leave it hooked up to city water and close your rear doors. Thanks,
Good questions. Let's see if I can help: 1. There is a clear gauge below the sink. Or, fill till you see the water overflow underneath the coach. 2. If you want to pour the extra water into your fresh water tank, select 'Saniitze' and use a fresh water hose to place in your container. It will siphon into the fresh water tank with 'Sanitize' selected. 3. Unless you customize the back of the van with a hose port, if you're connected to city water, you can leave the back doors open during the day, then switch over to 'Dry Camping' so you can close the doors at night.
@@thehealthytraveler Thanks, for me this is the perfect B van. I guess you could drill a hole in the floor of garage and figure out how to plug when traveling. I’m just not on board with that cassette toilet. Thanks for your response😊
@@thehealthytraveler the water pump does need to be on to add water using the sanitize setting to siphon water into water tank correct?
My dream is one day to own a Van like this and go on a campaign trip with my girlfriend
That's a wonderful dream!
Look for a good used one when you are ready. you will save thousands.
