Yes, it can be tricky to get in with a big rig. I’ve done 3 different videos on this place and I’m always honest about that fact. The last time we took our 42 foot fifth wheel there and got it in with the help of the staff. They are wonderful at helping spot you. Once you’re there you will appreciate all the shade but you are correct and it’s something people with bigger rigs should be aware of.

Thanks so much! It really is an amazing place and you’re right about the bugs in late fall. This was our first time doing something like this. We enjoyed it so much we actually went back after gaining some experience and brought a crew with us. You may enjoy that video even more. Happy camping! th-cam.com/video/8IP1i8aDCYg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=j9Mx4AOdd80giAOK

Thanks. I’ve not heard that. Will have to look into it. Our Alliance Paradigm has an inverter from the factory installed in the same compartment but maybe they have changed the codes. Appreciate the insight.

Maybe it has to do with battery type. Lithium vs lead acid batteries. I know lead acid batteries give off flammable fumes. I’m not sure about lithium.

Thanks! I’ll have to look into that. That would be great.

So happy you found it helpful! Congratulations on your new rig. Hope you’re able to make some great memories.

It’s better than the first generation where the antenna was attached to the mirror. It prevented you from being able to angle the mirror. It did take a little bit to get used to it at the power supply but now we like it. It also adds 2 usb charge ports which my wife likes when she’s in the passenger seat!

Happy it was helpful!

I get that. There are definitely cheaper options out there with less specs. Was just showing the features of this one. Happy camping!

I’m not affiliated with GRV. I’m just a TH-camr sharing our experiences. If you’ve had a bad experience with them then that is terrible. If you browse through the comments I have not removed the ones who likewise have had a negative experience. I’ve welcomed people sharing their perspectives. That doesn’t mean mine is not true.

Not sure what you’re talking about. I haven’t removed any comments. As far as I know the only reason a comment would be auto removed is if it contained foul language.

Hi there! I have scaled it. If it’s helpful you can DM me on our facebook page and I can send you a screenshot of the scale ticket. I asked a few others for their scale tickets before purchasing this rig just to get a better idea of what the numbers would be. I don’t mind helping others in the community. 👍🏽

So glad it was helpful! Hope I took some of the intimidation away.

I’m sorry to hear that. I know that is frustrating. Especially being left in the dark. Poor or zero communication from a dealership is very aggravating. I can be patient as long as I’m informed. Hope it gets better and you can start enjoying your new rig soon!

Great question. I’m wondered the same when I installed the first one. The track only screws into the siding material. I think this is why there are so many screws. Each screw in the siding holds less force than one in the stud but they make up for the force by having so many screws that it spreads the force out. This is also why I recommend using butyl tape on the back of the track for waterproofing the screw holes instead of caulking. The butyl tape just by itself is VERY sticky and adds even more strength in my opinion. As well as waterproofs the screw holes.

Glad you found it helpful! It’s funny that they used staples. The instructions say to use a screw. In fact, the kit comes with screws specifically for that. This is why I have trust issues and prefer whenever possible to do things myself. 😂

Thanks for the support!

Hope it was helpful!

Thank you! Yes, I agree with you. It’s more importantly than the manufacturers realize. We buy RV’s to go camping. We go camping to be outdoors. An outdoor kitchen helps keep us outdoors. It’s really simple to me. 😂

@@RCRVadventures Yes I agree very simple as you state!!! Not sure why the manufacturers don't see it! :-)

Thanks for watching!

Thanks! Hope it was helpful!

Glad you found it helpful.

Yes! Those are great callouts. I did check for burrs on the channel. This one was fine but an excellent point you make. Ripping the topper as you slide it in would ruin your day for sure!

There are pros and cons to both having them and not having them. Just depends on the individual.

I’m happy you found it helpful! Thanks!

Yes, it’s holding up great. It’s not on the trim though. It is in the framing. In the middle of the video I show how to measure down to be able to clear your trim and get the screws into the frame. The screws are too long and will go right through the trim and cause damage when you close the slide.

I knew we couldn’t be the only ones! 😂 You know how awesome it is. We have done it solo before but it is definitely more fun in a group. Thanks for sharing with us!

Awesome! Happy I could help.

That’s awesome! If you went fishing I hope you had better luck than I had. 😂

Thanks, hope it was helpful!

Definitely easier with help but it’s doable by yourself. 👍🏽

Unfortunately there are no extra ports on the unit to add additional cameras. It is limited to only the 2 cameras. The built in front facing camera and the wireless rear camera. They do have several other camera systems that you can add more cameras. Maybe take a look at their website and see what different systems they have that could work for your setup. From my experience they seem to be a reputable company with great customer service.

If you’re referring to the slid toppers that I installed in the video, most campers do not come with them. They can be purchased on Amazon. The company that makes them is LCI. You will have to measure the length of you slides to order the correct size. Hope this helps. 👍🏽

Glad you found it helpful!

Sure! I get that. Just gotta find someone who will let me tinker on their camper. 😂

I’m happy you found it helpful. Every setup will be different so take the time to do your research and know your numbers. I found a lot of truck salesmen don’t fully understand towing numbers. Best of luck!

Thanks for sharing! Looks like I’ll have to do more of these! 😂

Thank you! It was definitely one of the most fun things we’ve done with the RV! Hope to inspire others to try it.

Great time with great people in a great location. You really can’t ask for more! Hope we showed it well and inspired others to try it. Thanks for watching!

I found it at Home Depot. It’s sold in the roofing supply section. 👍🏽

That’s awesome! I’m happy you found it helpful! It’s funny to think I almost didn’t make this video. 😂 Now, it has become our most viewed one. So glad it is helping people. Congrats on the replacement!

Thanks Tio! I hope to continue with the videos. Just have to get through this season I’m in. As always, your support means a lot to us!

Glad you found it helpful. We just wanted to share our experience. We’ve bought a couple RV’s from different places and this was the most pleasant experience. I know they’ve gotten some bad press, which may or may not be accurate, but we didn’t experience any of that.

Thanks so much! We decided to try and start adding these short campground reviews because, honestly, it’s what we would like to see when looking for a new campground. 😂 Glad you found it helpful!

You’re right, I’m sorry, I didn’t show it very well in the video. The back wall behind the refrigerator is built out about 6” to allow airflow. It then makes a 90 degree angle and connects to the back wall. The refrigerator blocks this angle from view so it looks like one straight wall in the back but it is not.

@@RCRVadventures Ah! That makes more sense.

@sators If you ever decide to take on the project, DM me on our Facebook page. I may have some photos/videos I can send you to help show it with more detail.

Thanks for watching.

It definitely was an exciting ride! 😂 To be fair, I may have added some sound effects to her driving clips to make it more vivid. 🤣🤣🤣
