Hi Everyone, We hope you enjoyed our video! Which small 5th camper PERFECT FOR COUPLES did you like best? Do you prefer a travel trailer, motorhome or 5th wheel? Please say hello by leaving a comment below and sharing your opinion about these RV floor plans.
Thanks so much for sharing these reviews! My wife and I plan to purchase our first motorhome/fifth wheel within the next 12 months and you two do a very nice job of showing and describing each unit. ❤
Hi Mike and Susan! Well this is the first time I liked all three of them. I liked the first one the most at first the keystone. Then the second one. It’s hard to say because they are all so nice in their own way. Work but all three for my family. If I cloud. They are nice and small. That’s what I like. Thank you again Mike and Susan. Hope you have a great week and weekend and see you soon! Are you going to the Hershey show? If so can’t wait to see what they’ll have. Enjoy the Rv show if you are going!
Hi Sherri, We are at the Hershey Show and we have been shooting RV tours since Monday! We found some really different RVs to show off. Stay tuned! Thanks for your comments too!!! Mike and Susan
Guess I’m to old school. I like the old truck campers and 5th wheel trailers (like the one Mel Gibson had on the beach. A height of 10.5’, no more. I am assuming that these are 12-13’ high. I have a 1973 truck. I get 10 mpg with an old Sunline 9.5 slide in. Pulling one of these, I’d be lucky to get 6 mpg. Don’t really care to pull a travel trailer, and the new slide in campers are too high and heavier.
Yeah...the market has moved on from the older smaller lighter style of campers and 5th wheels. Most folks want a residential vacation type experience and the manufacturers have moved that way... Thanks for watching and for sharing your old school experience! Mike
Lots of cool parts in each one, but, for me, the 10 cf fridge is a deal breaker. We are not actively looking, but keeping our eyes open for ‘what’s next’. We love our current TT, but as we consider longer and longer trips, the fridge situation is killing me. For 7-10 days, the 10 is great, longer and I’m looking at some major shopping in areas that might not have much selection. It’s now the first thing I check when viewing floorplans. 16cf at least.
Hi Linda, We found some awesome destination trailers here at the Hershey Show that will BLOW YOUR MIND! Stay tuned! We really don't cover the 4 season RVs because there are no standard criteria for a 4 season rig, and most of them sort of stretch the truth. Thanks for your suggestion! We are on it!
The jury is still out on Brinkley...we are waiting to see how they hold up after a few seasons. We didn't see this model at the Hershey Show but we will be in Elkhart next week for the Manufacturers RV Show and we can tour it then. Thanks for the suggestion! Mike
New to the channel. Thanks for the great content. I noticed in some of your videos that you do not mention two things that would be important to me. First, whether or not the doors and drawer are pressboard or solid wood. Then, and probably even more important, are the counter tops solid surface. Thanks again for the hard work.
Hi John, Welcome to our channel! No one has ever asked us to cover those items before. But if we get the same request from other viewers we will begin to include those items in our videos. I will say that most RV drawers are terrible so if you buy an RV you should expect to have to reinforce every drawer bottom in your RV. Not sure what you are asking about the countertops. What exactly do you mean by solid surface? Thanks for watching! Mike
OMG! You are doing reviews and don't know the difference/importance of solid surface counter tops? Compared to pressboard, laminated osb or thermal foil. WOW
@@JohnDKing Hi John, I asked bacause we have never seen a camper made in the past 5 or 6 years without solid surface countertops. So I was trying to better understand what you were asking about. I know all about countertops but your question didn't make sense and then your reply to my question was disrespectful. I try to understand what our viewers are asking so I can provide the best answer possible. No need to act like this.
That's cool. I've never owned an RV where I couldn't get to the kitchen or bathroom when the slides are in. How often is it really a problem? I've traveled by car and just stopped at rest areas to get some chow and hit the bathroom... Thanks for watching and for your comment. Mike
That's weird...please feel free to send me your name and email and I can check it out and add you back in if you were dropped. Hit me up at mike@rvblogger.com Thanks!
I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when I saw the 2nd and 3rd "bedroom". The thought of not being able to at least sit up in bed is scary. Ever swallowed the wrong way while laying down and had to sit up quickly? Absolutely loved the rest of the 5th wheel.
@RVBlogger Mike, so sorry. I started to comment on another video of yours with the over 400 sqft 5th wheel, but as I was posting it, auto play started playing this video, so it got posted to this video by mistake.
@@richardr5888 LOL! That makes much more sense! I agree on the second and third bedrooms - the ceiling height is too low. Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike
Gotta keep rolling through the video - maybe it was a little stuck but almost all drawers in RVs are terrible. We made a video about how I fixed every drawer in our RV. Check it out: ruclips.net/video/durA4kau_ZQ/видео.htmlsi=6uWR4MYLVMjhLNov

I'm really liking the Forest River designs! Many times, my favorite RV is one of their models.
Forest River has some great floor plans!
Thanks for watching!
Mike
The Arcadia just love Keystone. Their designs are great.
We agree! Very nice rig!
Thanks for watching!
Mike
Love all your videos thanks for sharing them ❤❤❤❤
You are so welcome!

That makes our day!!! Thanks so much for the kind words!
Mike and Susan
Loves these small trailers. This is something I would like to retire in.
We love these 5th wheels under 30 feet. Easy to tow and perfect for couples!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
Mike
Forest river isa very innovative company, something for everyone
Agree! They do a great job with their floor plans and designs.
Thanks for watching!
Mike
Awesome video, like always. I love the bathroom in the # 1, the dinner setup of the 2nd, and almost everything at the 3rd of the 5TH wheel. Thanks
Thanks for watching!

Having a lerger fridge is very convenient. Good point.
Thanks for watching!
Mike
With the shower seats for sure.
BUT WHY DON'T YOU DO A VIDEO ON ALL SEASON RV'S OR DESTINATION RV'S WOULD BE A NEW IDEA. I'D LIKE TO SEE SOME.❤

Thanks for your suggestion! We are on it!
Could we please have some larger RV’s class A and B ?
Hi Peter,
We will work on that!
Thanks for the suggestion!
Mike
Brinkley Model Z 2670

With the slide in you cannot get to the stove or microwave on these. I prefer NO slides. Less openness but I am willing to lose that.
That's cool. I've never owned an RV where I couldn't get to the kitchen or bathroom when the slides are in. How often is it really a problem? I've traveled by car and just stopped at rest areas to get some chow and hit the bathroom...

Thanks for sharing the love!
I was subscribed to both newsletter and magazine but I stopped getting them. I figure your server dumped some of the list
That's weird...please feel free to send me your name and email and I can check it out and add you back in if you were dropped. Hit me up at mike@rvblogger.com
Thanks!
@@lindayaya59 Please email me at mike@rvblogger.com and I'll check into it for you.
I need your first name and email address...
Thanks!

I could have sworn there was a washer dryer prep in the last two but you didnt mention it. Can you please let us know which ones have that?
WOW how did I miss that! lol
The second one ( the Cardinal) has washer and dryer prep! but not the other two...good catch!
I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when I saw the 2nd and 3rd "bedroom". The thought of not being able to at least sit up in bed is scary. Ever swallowed the wrong way while laying down and had to sit up quickly?
Absolutely loved the rest of the 5th wheel.
I'm pretty sure you can sit up in those beds...not quite sure what you mean. Can you be more specific?
Thanks for watching!

I like things in all three, but the second one was great downstairs but terrible bed arrangement and upper area looked cheap.
Thanks for watching and for your comment!
You couldn't even close the lower drawer in the kitchen. Hmm.
Gotta keep rolling through the video - maybe it was a little stuck but almost all drawers in RVs are terrible. We made a video about how I fixed every drawer in our RV. Check it out:

I tried to like this video but it won't let me
That's weird...thanks for trying. Must be some sort of RUclips glitch...
