LOVVVVVING THE DRAWER IN THE BEDROOM, LOVE THE GATE AT FRONT DOOR, LAUNDRY BASKET, FIREPLACE, CLOSET❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
Have never seen a Palomino River Ranch 5th wheel before. Gone and looked into them and have to say I am impressed.
There are a ton of great features we did not mention in the video, like the composite basement and slide floors.
Fantastic idea’s, I am totally stealing the idea with the black flush!
Works really well!
If I had the money, I’d get this exact setup. The truck and the 5th wheel. What an incredible way to live!! It’s beautiful!!
We are blessed to have this setup now. Thank you!
Love your friends rv and on the sink to have more room I would get a cutting board that fits in half of the sink for more prep space and to chop vegetables.
It does come with one but for some reason I have a difficult time using it. Sometimes I’m special for no good reason 😂
I was thinking the same. But beautiful home.
@@HomeMeetsRoad I love your home.
@@crystalyj30 thank you!!!
We took the gas stove out, replaced it with a drawer style dishwasher and a flat cooktop. Changed the regular microwave to an updated multi purpose microwave with, air fryer, bake, broil, roast & rotisserie options ❤️
River Ranch and other builders really should watch this video and take note. Great ideas and feedback.
They did! The new version of this floorplan has some neat changes.
Thank you for another great tour video! Going to turn this into a yearly thing! 😂
Heck yeah! You keep customizing things in awesome ways and we'll keep showing them off 👍🤣👍
Nice RV but no switches and having to use the Ipad control for lights and slides is a huge no go for me. I would hate that lol.
Fact. That is such an idiotic thing.
I’m rather jealous of the set your water temperature shower! I need to have full hookups to use our shower because it takes forever to get it where I want it. Thanks for sharing!
On average it takes 10 to 15 seconds to get it to the set temp.
We looked through the other version when we were looking for our first Fiver…it is massive! We knew it was more than we want but just had to see the inside😁. It is definitely a full-time family rig.
What did you end up with?
For the massive pantry, with items getting lost. I would but in a pullout pantry or shelves and have it pull out the narrow side. Or i would do those pullout shelves that lazy susan out around the part near the fridge. They have freat brackets for that in the rev a shelf line. Then you could access that hidden corner side.
Yay 2 of my favorite RUclipsr (who both deserve wwwaaayyyy more subscribers) ❤️
Hey! How are ya? Thank you 😊
Wow really nice!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
Really neat to see all the upgrades you all have made. It looks great! The mid-room bunk lift looks especially awesome.
Ha! Yea, bit of a different setup since we saw you.
@@HomeMeetsRoad Where did you get your couches?
@@stephanietraphagan8604 American Furniture Warehouse.
What is the brand I’d dehumidifier that you have installed and are you going to have any future videos with more information about it?
Waykar 155. I might do a review on it after 6 months of use.
I have a Braxton also! Not many of them out there. Mine just turned 18 this year
Interesting. I can see the need for so much storage if you’re living in it full time.
I like the move from king to queen size bed, I prefer to have a little more space to walk around. The living space is nice. But, given the size it seems like there should be more space. That kitchen island just makes me scratch my head. And that stair well is weird and definite tripping hazard.
All in all it’s amazing what you can get out of a 5th wheel. I’m impressed at all the mods he does. Looking forward to next year’s update.
I really think if you and Erin are going to continue full time with your family, you would do well with the space a 5th wheel offers. However, as you can see, the more space you have, the more stuff you acquire.
The island is a bit odd and probably will change.
We gotten used to the stairs so no tripping hazard for us (just for guests 😂).
It does look like we have a ton of stuff but most of the boxes are empty or only half way full. We emptied our storage unit and now have everything we own with us. Still need to organize and go through it all.
@@HomeMeetsRoad of course, no judging. You live full time. And it looks pretty organized to me. I loved the innovation in your old rig. You proved you could go really small. Enjoy.
Subscribing to your channel, Brian gave it such a nice recommendation.
@@esthers5772 thank you and welcome! Hope I don’t disappoint 😳😂
Absolutely love it ❤ 💯I love the honesty!!!!!!!!!!❤
Awesome......
Tour 🌻💛
The bathroom😍
I'm not a fan of those popup outlets either, we have them in our Jayco too. While those all in one touchscreen control panels are nice to have they are definitely not a replacement to physical switches.
We had one of those rollup covers on one side of our sink too and a junk cutting board on the other side. I found a nice piece of wood and cut it to fit to replace them.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one.
Good idea of making a cutting board! I should try that before changing the entire island 😂
Love your unique solutions 😊
Great setup, very nice!
Thank you!
The air always just sounds like we were there with you. I don’t think you ever need to turn it off
so many things that are good, and some not, just a great visit to see it. I am buying a two year old toy hauler fifth wheel which I will live in full time in an RV park. I know I will be painting the woodwork in the kitchen/living room area. I know a lot of prep is a must, learned that with a small mobil home twenty some years ago. A hard lesson, well learned.
The cutting board acts as one cover for the sink.
It's a nice logo!
Thank you! It was designed by Nomad Nation Gear.
Put a plastic placemat over your outlet tower , then you can put your towel over the place mat .
Duh 😂 sometimes I don’t think.
I have a sink similar to that in my house, and I use it to prep everything. It is my favorite work surface. So it just shows that I be person’s favorite feature can be two thumbs down for another.
I think in a house I would love it. Ok, it would depend on the house, I suppose. If I think of our last house, we had countertop space for days! I’m this sink would have been unique. The two issues I have is the storage the parts take up and the counter space I lose.
Just have something cut to fit the sink and just have it made in two pieces just fined a sheet metal shop and you can easily find rubber feet
Love the white floor vents! Wonder why they didn’t match the color? Oh. I heard you say you changed them. Paint them. It would drive me crazy😉 You could add a folding extension on the island for more room.
Really like the RV and what you've done so far. Especially love the orange-ish couches. Question : when you take out all the furniture, what do you do with it? Can it be sold somewhere?
If RR just made the outside steps taller, moved the door higher so they could remove that stair well they would have had a GRAND SLAM!!!
Nice rig! Looks like you have twice as much storage space as our motorhome. Any plans for solar in the future? We like to boondock a lot. For almost the last year and a half we have been boondocking continuously with a small 620-watt solar system, but plan on expanding it greatly within a year with 3,600 additional watts and bringing our battery bank up to 24kwh. We just like to see what others have planned.
Our old rig was all electric and could run everything off of the 500Ah, 1,240W solar system.
This rig needs a lot more power so it will need to wait until our wallet recovers.
Howdy! Great video, we are planning on getting our own soon!
One thing I noticed, is that you have the 2021 model, with the basement AC unit. Could you comment on how well that works/loud it is in the living space?
The newer models have three roof mounted AC units. I love the idea of freeing up more roof space for solar power, and having the fan in the bedroom. Any thoughts on if I should look for a 2021 model for that reason, or would the triple AC's be better so I can toggle one on at a time if I need it / if I am boon-docking and want to run on solar?
Thanks!
What table lift did you use? Looking to do the same thing
I noticed the leveling system was detached and in one of the totes, where is he planning on moving that to? Highly interested.
Where did you get the struts you used on the cabinets? Which ones did you get? We are wanting to do the same thing to our overhead cabinets.
What type of dehumidifier do you recommend?
I know this was posted almost a year ago but where are the couches from? We have this exact RV and hate the couches it came with.
Just make a board to cover the sink
He could have a cover made for the sink we did for our boat.
Your next project needs to be that severely squeaky floor.
Haha! Yea, it’s only by the stairs. I think I have a solution.
I thought that was Aaron Goodwin from Ghost Adventures!!
Where did you get the tv mount?
Can’t find it either
Receptacles on the side are a safety issue!
Apparently there are far more injuries than we would guess. Accidental or childish pulling on cords dumps hot water/oil/heavy stuff sometimes killing someone. The NEC has done some recent (2020 &2023) changes about this. Manufacturers have lost in court! As always, better, smaller equipment is the real answer!
Fire hazard I think to keep stuff in oven.
Generators running on gas inside a closed compartment is dangerous.
Thanks for your concern!
We have a built in fire suppression unit in the generator bay. Generators have carbon monoxide cutoffs, along with several other cutoffs. Intake is vented in and exhaust runs out with full heat shield.
Surprisingly poor engineering and design with this rig. It seems to promise much more than it actually delivers. Other brands are more coherent in their ergonomics and aren’t so focused on cost cutting. Was on my list, now off.
It all comes down to what you want and what you are willing to change. There are always things one will change. We love this rig, mainly because of the storage (yes, we love the floor plan, but you can find the floor plan by other manufacturers).
What models are you considering?
@@HomeMeetsRoad of course no model is perfect out of the box, but after viewing the video the “rough edges” of this coach are just too much for us, especially considering that solving them isn’t simple tinkering (like adding light switches, and making kitchen storage functional). We’re looking at mid bunks, and probably are going with a Jayco North Point, even though we would prefer a wide body. I applaud your creativity, but in the end River Ranch should have invested more into this model’s design. To us, it doesn’t earn premium status because of all the shortcuts and flaws, no offense.
@@tomm_d No offense taken! We love this rig, but point out the flaws so others know what they are getting into. That’s the purpose of these RV Tours. All Brian and I want is for folks to understand what it takes to live in these RVs, what may be an issue, and what one can do. I hope it helped, and I hope you find the proper rig for you!
P.S. Jayco is switching to a digital screen as well. If you are ordering a RV, make sure you ask the right questions, as model changes get made on the fly by all manufacturers.
We looked at one exactly like this at Ashley outdoors‼️❤️
I hate the cattle car looking entrance. That's an immediate no for me.
