      She keeps convincing me I like models I'd never even consider otherwise. I've looked at similar floorplans before, thinking I might be able to tuck the kids into a queen bed at one end, and eventually go to sleep in the dinette at the other end. The teardrop always seemed "too small" for a family of 6. Since we usually don't travel with the whole family, a smaller camper might work better for our current needs.

      @@chaosncheckt9356 what about the mattress or cushions for the top bunk? Are the cushions for the dining area used for both the bottom and top beds? I really like this camper but I’m not liking the lack of draws for clothing. I understand this is a camper but when you’re going for longer trips, I’d like to be able to put my clothes away. I also don’t appreciate the kitchen sink and faucet.

      @@monicae67 not sure about the mattress’ for the bunk beds. I suspect they are also used for seating. As for storage, we are just a family of two, so I got the lowest drawer under the two burner range and the storage above the seating on the drivers side. Her highness got the two remaining drawers under the range and the large one under the fridge. Since our long three month trip went through different temps, we each had a medium duffle with extra clothes we kept in our tow vehicle. We still over packed but now have three years and 40k miles on the camper and slimmed down what we carry to just about fit any situation and everything goes into the camper. Of course we do laundry every five or six days.

    Thank you PJ for an incredible presentation. Your walk throughs are simply the best. And the trailer itself- WOW! At 3200 pounds what sort of tow vehicle would you need? Also, what has put me off trailers is finding enough space to park it on your way to destination, say at a site seeing spot. At 19 feet this trailer isn’t huge, but combined with a tow vehicle, makes me break out into a cold sweat. Appreciate your comments!

    Interesting but missing a few things. As you may notice, there is no dedicated place to store the sewer hose. We have a 2019 t@b 400 BDL and there is a tube that fits under the bed. Access from the driver's side. Didn't see an option to attach a hose to flush the black tank. The storage compartment on the passenger side at the rear is small. In comparison, our 2019 has a large storage area where we fit three plastic boxes. One filled with electrical cable, etc, second filled with water hoses, filters, etc, and the third holds anything extra - like on long trips will fill it with water bottles. Not sure where you would put those items except on the storage platform on the front I guess. The storage tub on the front is nice, in fact we upgraded to this larger tub and added the platform. Key here is to be aware of the tongue weight, so it's important to avoid overloading this area. I also didn't see the standard DVD/bluetooth Jensen sound system. I would be very interested to know how long you can boon dock if that fridge is only DC powered off the batteries? We have the old three way and recently upgraded to a two lithium battery setup. I like the heavy duty step and SO GLAD nucamp ditched those chinese bomb tires and went with Goodyear. I don't see the spare mounted on this demo model. Not sure if it still holds true, but when we purchased our 2019, the spare was on a steel rim and it was a size smaller than the wheels on the ground. We purchased a aluminum rim from nucamp and mounted a full size spare and and secure it to the top of the tongue. Much easier to get to on the side of the road in a hail storm.

    The one feature I like was part of the fridge option. If you opted for a smaller fridge it was mounted under the kitchen cabinet and the space that the bigger fridge filled became a hanging closet.
    And as for the air conditioner, someone already pointed out that installing the ac on the floor wasn’t a good idea since cold air sinks and who wants to freeze their legs while eating?
    So maybe in 2024 they could find a way to mount the ac higher up….
    P.J. You were the best part of the video…

      I "think" in 2020 they tried to mount the a/c coolcat under the bed and that was a fail. We have a 2019 and yep, we have to constantly turn the floor vents to avoid freezing our legs. The other issue is the carbon monoxide detector. It's low on the floor as well and we've learned our Australian Sheppard loves sleeping here because the a/c vent blows on him. Well, if he lays against the CM detector for too long, he sets it off. I wish it were higher, say just under the edge of the seat.

    Minor point, but wet baths scare me. I’ve used an airstream basecamp wet bath, not fun. I’ve seen and stepped in an Oliver’s wet bath, and that seemed just fine. But in your video I have no clue how much foot room you have at the bottom. Being able to move, turn around, reach this hard to reach parts is CRITICAL in a wet bath. If you’re open to hints, show the floor space in a wet bath, pan down, around, nothing extreme, we just want to see if there’s enough room to use it. Great video, cheers!

Still I think this is one of the finest RV on the market. The one change I would like to see an outside door up front to access the storage under the front booth.

    The trailer is nice, and I could see myself fitting in there with my four kids (they're 10 and under), but this goes out to every RV manufacturer out there: We do not want blue lights. I'd rather have the mood lights cycle between red, warm white, and neutral daylight white. Especially at night, since the red light wavelength does not "wake up" your brain, but blue does. So if you're stumbling to the bathroom with four kids trying to sleep, the blue light is the worst possible color of night light available.

    You might consider a portable electric bear fence for camping in bear country. 2.4 lbs for huge peace of mind.

    Great.. but you missed showing and explaining the most important thing.. the TOILET. I know Americans have a strange problem with all things toilet but it would be great to know what type it is and how it works?

    What is the MSRP? What is the dealer’s sale price for this unit?

    Does anyone know what all those little brown circles that are in some areas are? Like stuck on the walls.

    Bummer; I thought the dinette folded out into at least a double bed. What were the bunks rated?

      The bunks look cheaply made.as well as some other things. This thing weight is over three thousand pounds? I do like it but material looks cheap. Looks like you will be doing a lot of up keep. Those drawers look like they will break in a few weeks of heavy use.
      Window should be wider by the bed.

    Is under the bed inaccessible? I figured that would have a least a little storage with the 3 piece mattress.

      My bet is no. The center portion is filled with that large drawer. The left side as you look at the bed is where that external storage compartment is and I'll bet the right side as the Alde unit and perhaps the batteries.

    Is it a cassette toilet or black tank?

    Did I miss the shower? Is it only outside in the back?
