Congratulations! Very nice camper and love the changes. I do not have to wonder why the change. You will no longer have to have such a beefy truck (reducing insurance costs), no climbing into bed through a narrow area, KING bed - WOW, pup has a lot more room (you too LOL). Great move. No problem fitting into garage, etc. Thank you for teaching us so much. We appreciate all the time and effort it takes to create videos for us. Very good choice and great quality camper.
Annell, thank you! Hope you guys are doing well.
Congratulations on your new trailer! You will love it. My wife and I bought our BigFoot 25RQ Twin a couple of years ago and last year did pretty much the same thing you have. Ours is currently wall to wall bed but we will be cutting it down to a king size soon. We thought the way you did it seemed pretty simple and looks great. We did though remove the two drawers and frames from underneath the one bed so that the storage compartment is now the same size as the other. We love all the extra storage space.
Nice TT. Big Foot is one of the best.
Congratulations! I look forward to hearing your story about why you switched from a truck camper to a bumper pull in a future episode. Enjoy it, they are very nice campers!
Love this camper, one of my favorites. Safe travels.
Congrats! What a nice camper! Hope y'all enjoy it for many years to come!
Congratulations! Looks great! Enjoy.
Well done with the king bed. I had the queen version of this trailer. I full-timed in it for almost 5 years and was very happy with it. You'll want to replace that ancient furnace thermostat with a digital one. I bought a Honeywell and it worked great.
So happy for you guys! Can’t wait to see it at the next egg rally!!
Ya'll should consider hinging the ply wood at the top and putting gas struts at the bottom for easier access underneath.
Great news guys!! Loved the video. Always nice to see a manufacturer come up with a new floor plan. 🤣🤣. Happy travels in the new rig. Unfortunately I’ve never been a fan of Lance products. Everyone has their own grove. The Bullet Proof Big Foot!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very nice guys! We went from a Casita to the Bigfoot 21 RB and the extra room was a game changer for us. Bigfoot campers are very impressive trailers. I like the king bed set up, gives you a lot of room to store things along the bed side.
Looking forward to seeing how your Air conditioner change goes. Safe travels guys.
Congratulations guys!
I suppose since you are used to crawling on the bed in the truck camper to make the bed, you won't mind doing the same in this trailer. I couldn't do that. I have to be able to be at least on one side of the bed, not the end of it. It looks like a nice camper. I hope you enjoy it.
Congratulations on the new trailer .
Great rig guys. The only thing I would want in mine is pocket doors or regular doors on either side of the bathroom area so I can use the bathroom when my friends come in early before I wake up. And, they can use it and not bother me in my bed. I love everything about your camper though. Happy Times to you both from South Carolina.
Love your new camper😊. Also love that coffee pot. Have the same one 😂.
Adorable trailer! Yeah i like the light wood cabinets the best too. I give u guys 4 months before posting it for sale 😂. 🍻
Nice travel trailer, I see a new truck in the near future. No need for an F450 to pull that trailer.
Congratulations on your new trailer! I really enjoy your videos.
I just love this little rig. I pull a 40’ solitude but man these things are perfect
Awesome! Congratulations! As a fellow owner I have so many requests for 25’ Bigfoot content.
Excellent choice! I look forward to see your adventures in the new Bigfoot.
Big shift and a Very nice rig. Enjoy
nice we own a 2923 rq, cool coversion
Congratulations! That is a beautiful camper!
Congratulations on the new camper!
Beautiful woodwork !
Super nice rig y'all got there
You all have sold me on the Big Foot Travel Trailer!!!!! Not to hijack this post but I was watching on another site a guy was on the Alaska trip with a Truck Camper. Transmission went out in his rig. Got towed to Anchorage to a Dealer, they told him it would be 4 months before they could look at it. He's done!!! Had to catch a flight home.. My thoughts on Travel Trailers, you can rent a U-Haul or Enterprise rent a truck and get home.. Thank you for posting your videos.
You are exactly right! Thanks for watching!
Very nice congrats!
Love it, Congratulations!
I like Bigfoot campers just to big for me . I've been living in my 2020 jayco 195 RB full time that I got new and I hit the road march 2020 and I'm living full time in it off grid free camping 99% and I've pulled it through 37 states and on my third set of tires lol ...😆 My 2020 Ram 1500 pulls it easy and I'm debt free , at 63 years old and retired I'm living my dream . I gave my 2 bedroom house to my son and i love the freedom of no taxes and no utilities , my monthly bills are Truck insurance 117 a month , cell 50 and life insurance 17 a month . The biggest cost is gas and food and the prices very from state to state , WV and TN seems to be the cheapest cost . I Iove watches you guys , keep up the good information videos . PS this jayco has many miles on it and I've pulled through rough places so its well built and only problems I've has is minor trim fixes. Jayco impressed me and i took a shot in the dark buying it .I've been thinking about buying a truck camper and up grading my 1500 Ram for a 5500 so i can get a good size Truck camper . Just been thinking 🤔 lol
Love it.
Great video and great conversion to a rear king 😊
Just picked up our first truck camper last week, Bigfoot 9.4
Bigfoot’s are built so well, can’t wait to get touring.
You probably won’t need that F450 to tow the travel trailer.
Congrats on your Bigfoot 9.4! Bigfoot makes great campers. Thanks for watching!
Welcome to the club Lee! We love ours.
That is great!! My wife and I had a camper we did the same thing too and it’s been our favorite camper. Love the king bed!!
Changing from a camper to a trailer definitely has some plusses. And from what I've seen about where you go, very little down side. I think you made a great choice and Im so happy for you!
Nice!!
Love it. Enjoy.
You guys change campers like underwear. Myself like towables. I believe you'll miss the twin beds. Now you don't have anywhere to change except in the hallway. I guess you're use to that in the truck camper. Very nice camper. Bath a little small for my liking but if the price was right...
Very nice camper. Did you put struts on the bed to lift it? Are you keeping the Lance truck camper too? Have you sold the Northern Lite?
Ok…first things first…..jealous! Now we have been watching you guys for some time now, we must of missed the northern lite being sold somehow. We knew and watched all the videos of the lance, do you still have it and are you keeping it. Do you plan on keeping this Bigfoot? I hope you all do a camp meet up sometime, we’d love to come hang. I think you have the best of the best. Happy Trails !
Congrats! You folks amaze me and not surprised you’ve updated your camping experience. ❤
F/B/G Tank sizes?
All three tank sizes are 45 gallon. Thanks for watching!
Very nice and a thorough video like always. My wife said she had a premonition that you guys would eventually have one of these. Curious as to how long it took you to find it and does your local DMV office know you guys by first name? We have a 29' 5th wheel currently but could see downsizing to one of these. Without asking you what you paid, what's a good price range for one this age?
Safe travels.
Makeing the bed looks tough
We don’t usually make the bed up so not really a big deal. We just pull the cover back up after we get out and that works for us.
My second camper trailer was a Road Ranger and it had Buck beds on the left rear and full bath next to it the main bed was a couch and we took a month off work and went to Pikes Peak and Mt Rushmore was a game changer when you come around that corner and boom it’s in your face and Royal Gourge Devils Tower a state far and got to watch the world of out laws and talked to some bikers that told us that Sturgeon started sat and a way we went and ran into 7 guys from work and Cody way to see gun museum 5000 miles in 30 days and not one break down no flat tires and pulled it with my 1992 Dodge regular cab long bed bumper pull camper and it towed like a dream and we had a big Excalibur fiberglass camper shell with a fun Buck that turned to a bed and I mounted a 12 volt fan on a 2-4 and tur ac on high and that fan kept it cool all day and if you get a chance to go up pikes Peak tak the coat way railroad up to the top at the bottom it’s like 95 degrees and at the top was high winds snow the train sets with ac going and the heat after that and it was so cold But so much fun !!
Nice trailer. Is it me or do you guys buy a truck or a camper every 6 months? Then in between you are doing modifications them for ether ride or comfort? You guys are gonna have to get a dealer license with all the buying and selling going on.😂
Nice! Todd and Carla yall living the life. Todd do think you will add a shock absorber package? Only thing is another registration for a tag and insurance is different than a truck camper.
The trailer already comes with shocks. Thanks for watching!
I honestly think you may be done "horse trading" for a good long while. Glad you're happy. Me too!
Hey Bob, I hope you're right! I think we're both going to really enjoy this Bigfoot trailer and it's easier to deal with in my opinion. We've been wanting one of these for a long time. We'll definitely miss some things about the truck camper though. Thanks again for watching!
Will be interested in your evaluation of this after some time . We love what we have seen when looking at the Bigfoot’s, very good quality it seems. We would want the twin bed setup and possibly the recliner option. We have two small /medium size dogs and a cat . The extra floor space the twin bed option gives is nice with pets . We would also do the Houghton upgrade .
How does it pull and do you have or need any sway control. I currently have a 2020 f450 so when we sell our 5thwheel the Bigfoot will be next and plan on keeping the truck. Just don’t know if sway control will be needed.
We totally understand about having space for pets. I just put the Houghton on our Bigfoot a couple days ago, Love It! I have not used any sway control to pull the trailer so far. With my truck being a Ford F450 cab chassis truck it is so heavy it controls the trailer really well. I'm sure your F450 will do the same. Our Bigfoot did come with a weight distribution hitch, but I haven't bothered to use it with my truck. My truck doesn't hardly know it's back there. Safe Travels and thanks for watching!

Thanks and have blessed travels
My wife and I have a 2017 BF 25RQ and I would like the info for the replacement for the cheap bathroom fan, I would like to just replace the fan unit W/O having to replace everything on the roof. Which unit did you purchase to do this? Thank you in advance! We like watching your vids and learn something, keep them coming.
Here is an Amazon link to the bathroom fan replacement. It's easy to install just know there are two locations for the turning knob post to go through. I had to adjust it to fit on my fan. You may have to do the same but it's easy. I tell you that because for a minute I didn't think it was going to work but it did one I made the adjustment.

@@RunawayRoses Thank you!
To each his own, as much as I enjoy the videos, I can't help but wonder how much money these folks have lost in the half dozen transactions I've seen them do.YIKES!😮
If you're strategic when you buy campers, you can make money doing it as well as being able to try different campers along the way. Being ready to buy when the iron is hot always helps. In the whole scheme of things we have made a whole lot more than we have lost otherwise we would not have done it. 😁💰
@@RunawayRosesI'm so happy to hear that Todd! None of my business but I had wondered.
@@markgrehlinger7117 one thing about Bigfoot you never hear about frame flex and have never heard any problems about their structure. You get what you pay for and yes they cost a lot but man they build a strong camper with extra strong steel and as far as leaks go when they get 10-12 yrs old you just need to reseal the windows and any vents, fans , ac unit ladder and the seams around the two halves need to be resealed and any time you see a rusty screw you need to replace it with stainless screws .
@@markgrehlinger7117 I love bumper pull campers and far as towing I don’t notice any big difference between a 5rh wheel or a bumper pull camper and it’s so simple to pull a bumper pull don’t have to worry about hitting the cab but your so cool to have a 5 wheel .
