    The bunkroom needs a pocket door and for the wall a coffee bar. I like the storage behind the TV. The part on the door would be a nice snack food storage for my husband. LOL

      Yeah nice hidden pantry that actually can get to things.

    The price point is great for this unit. Wouldn’t bother me at all to make some upgrades with the price, and the fit and finish look great from here. Definitely on my look at list. Thanks for sharing!

    Love that behind TV storage, terrible living seat design, not fan of midbunks. Normal bunks better.
    Hate lofts, but that one was good

    This is imo not a very good deal. It’s a nice Rv, but at that price? You’re looking at the price point of the alpine 3780mb, the cameo 3961mb, and other mid profile 70k rvs. No six point on a 40+ foot Rv? No hydrolic leveling? Don’t get me wrong, it’s a solid price, but they need to be selling this at 60k imo to be competitive in the segment. Doesn’t appear to have an inverter either. This to me is competing with the Cherokee series, 3660 suite, things like that, but they have less features than even that! no one control, manual love seats, bleh, who are they competing with on this one? Regardless, your review is detailed, and extremely informative, thanks for all you do for us. I’m in the market for a new mid bunk, so hopefully you have some more videos coming out soon :p
    That loft was ugh too lol. I did like the Goodyear tires though, that’s a big cost most of us do right out of the gate, All of the others I mentioned aren’t using Goodyear other than Cherokee.

    I think this is an awesome 🤩 RV, I especially like the price. That’s a great price for everything you get with this camper! I love the fact that it’s got tons of sleeping space, and the color scheme is really nice!

    Really like the lay out of this. Like the midbunk and the loft bed/storage area. Also prefer the lack of graphics.

  • @Adiscretefirm
    @Adiscretefirm Před 8 měsíci

    Love the minimal, angular graphics

  • @nancyf18
    @nancyf18 Před 8 měsíci

    I like the outside color I love the interior, the area that suppose to be a bunk with no windows I would store thing up there, have a gate where the things would not fall off.

  • @Kentucky4runner

    Storage behind the tv really is nice. Mid bunk area could be a nice office area. Looks like a nice unit to accommodate lots of potential buyers.

  • @philburch1970

    Finally, a decently-sized TV in an RV!

  • @TanyaRando
    @TanyaRando Před 8 měsíci

    Love the island with a flip up, the seating is good as it's enough for all sleepers. Love the stove posution, I couldn't coped with it being all boxed in.
    Storage space behind the tv is a great idea. I'm ambivalent about the ceiling can position.
    Did the table extend?
    I'm a big fan of the midbunk style, I find it so flexible. I like the loft because I'd struggle to get tongue back of the very deep ones.
    I'd love to see someone demo how to use the emergency window. And once used, how easy are they to put back to normalb(just in case you have kids who would try to open it while you were busy!)

  • @barrytobias6921
    @barrytobias6921 Před 8 měsíci

    Nice fifth wheel but it needs 6 jacks versus 4 and it should have 3 air conditioners. I also agree with you on the suspension

  • @STurbo5247
    @STurbo5247 Před 6 měsíci

    Right away I can see that there should be no table and chairs and two more recliners and storage above That tip out also. I’m not sure about the kitchen yet. I have to look it over a little better but it looks to me like there’s virtually no countertop space or very little

  • @garydouglasstewart8731

    Never went into the front storage. Is there a generator in there?

  • @journeyhome98
    @journeyhome98 Před 5 měsíci

    What do rv manufacturers have against air flow in an rv? Why in the world would they have those big windows and not allow you to open them? It’s the same with the frameless windows that look cool from the outside, but open a whopping 2” from the bottom.
    I’m not sure why they wouldn’t put a window back behind the oven.
    Ty for the video.

  • @joshg_irish8283
    @joshg_irish8283 Před 8 měsíci

    Yeah I like this one. I would think about trying to get them to upgrade buy agreeing to purchasing the upgrade suspension and get them to put it on labor free if charger

    Similar in many ways to the Arctic Wolf 3660SUITE. Same slide layout with different items. It lacks the storage of the 3660 though with only the one passthrough that is half the size. The mid bunk is similar but has the door across from the entrance and not where it could get damaged if it were to get jarred open during transit, and then have the slide catch on it. I LIKE the fridge though. The 3660 has an outdoor on the camp slide at the rear of the slide with a rather large 120v fridge, a cabinet and two large drawers, but need a step stool to reach anything. I'm mixed about that, it holds a lot more food and beer than that dorm fridge in this one, but its pretty high up there for us. I like the rear of this one better than the 3660 so it's really a toss up on the two, but having something very much like this I can tell you that it is a good floor plan for a family of 5. I would prefer the pantry with the entertainment center over the outdoor kitchen that is on mine, would take up less space and open up the floor a bit more.

    • @yillbs3014
      @yillbs3014 Před 8 měsíci

      The 3660 is the better value I think, sub 60k almost ten grand more for this

  • @robertburns5145
    @robertburns5145 Před 8 měsíci

    I think with the improvements in the cable slide systems you’re going to see more manufacturers abandon Schwintek and go to the Exact slide system. To me it’s a shame Lippert isn’t doing anything to make the Schwintek more robust than what it is. Personally I like the looks of the Schwintek over the cable slides but the performance of Schwintek is terrible.

  • @edwarddavis507
    @edwarddavis507 Před 8 měsíci

    I could never afford this but I’m a big fan of the mid-bunk because I love the additional privacy and office space. I don’t like the bunk inside the space and prefer a full loft. I prefer the simpler decals on the exterior. I would even like something a little more simpler like two tone exterior and no stripes s that seem to go nowhere.

  • @davidbaron6647

    Pretty good price for this much rig.

  • @PhotoHoag
    @PhotoHoag Před 7 měsíci

    Water center under slide is no good.
    Mid bunk would be a good office. Loft would be nice tote storage.
    Nice kitchen
    Hate how they cheap out on suspension, window surrounds, thermal windows.

  • @dianem1952
    @dianem1952 Před 8 měsíci

    Like all this space! Maybe the ceiling fan is over the kitchen area to distribute cooking heat. Needs to upgrade to G or H tires and where is that necessary 1/2 bath?? I was hoping the door by the fridge would have 🚽but nope.

    • @acdii
      @acdii Před 8 měsíci +1

      At least it has Goodyear tires on it, which he skipped over. Thats a plus compared to the china bombs they used to have.

  • @aaronbritt2025
    @aaronbritt2025 Před 8 měsíci

    I wouldn't buy any bunkhouse. Don't need one. Single, no kids. I'd rather that space be used for more room for the kitchen and a second bathroom. Plus, I'd only buy a new rig if a side by side fridge is an option. I seriously dislike over/under fridges. I'd use that big empty wall space for a spice rack. Nice to see new RV's dropping back down to the traditional selling prices... 30% off MSRP.

  • @dfnsmn1411
    @dfnsmn1411 Před 8 měsíci

    Is ceiling fan location so that it clears slides when in? The plain wall is nice so that the owner has a place to put whatever makes sense for how they use the RV

  • @kylemcmahon9187
    @kylemcmahon9187 Před 7 měsíci

    So I am curious what you thought was unique????
    Everything I saw I gave have seen on many other 5th wheels over the years. I fact I saw less features than other 5th wheels.
    But for the price as they come down there are some good features that you did not get for that price.

  • @user-bi2uz4pv6r

    Does that island flip up counter allow full access to the fridge with the slide in?!

  • @debbieschmith7884

    Not enough kitchen storage. So many campers have no place for a coffee pot. Nice camper other than that.

    The build quality looks sub par. In other words built cheap!

  • @chappy308
    @chappy308 Před 7 měsíci

    In my opinion, for the amount of sleeping space it has it should be 1.5 bath. Room for 8 people in one RV with one toilet. Yikes.

  • @rickyparker1287
    @rickyparker1287 Před 7 měsíci

    If the sofa is folded out in the midbunk you can't access the room. Don't like that.

  • @beentheredonethat6219
    @beentheredonethat6219 Před 8 měsíci

    Not an interesting RV for someone like me, from the start. Too long, I go to many national parks and the max there is 35’. Second is this would require a special driver license in my state class A non commercial or a commercial class A because it is over 12,500 lbs.

      Nope. Listen again to how JD recommended even up to a ‘duelie’ to move this massive 5th wheel safely.

  • @sactoindyfan
    @sactoindyfan Před 8 měsíci

    You can tow it with a 3/4 ton with enough cargo capacity. I sincerely beg to differ.
