C4BO, the 382RK that we purchased so far has been great! A few small things foot pedal on the toilets leaking slightly should be an easy fix. Other than that it’s been great!
Good to see a company that produces a quality product. I am sure you checked the floor for moisture inside where the trim piece was bowed.....a bit concerning. By the way, loved the reinforced drawers......particularly at my age, they come in handy.
😺Stow and go has to allow me access to the appliances and the dining table. We want to be able to have a nice lunch even on travel days! This is a BUST for us. 🐿
Duuno, but some of the exterior trim and panel overlaps that you pointed out could cause water ingress? Are made with construction techniques that both the house building abd boat building industries changed away from decades ago. Precisely because those construction techniques encouraged water damage, and simple changes eliminated any possibility of it. I'm waiting for Wally and the Beaver to get caught as the real executives still building RVs the good old 50's way.
Pierre, I'm pretty sure that you know that the floor of the bedroom IS NOT right where the 'buckling' trim is that you pointed out. If water got in there at that point it DOES NOT GO UP 3 inches to where the floor is. Heck, that whole area under the overhang could be left exposed to framing with no fiberglass or buckling trim.....it is there to make it look pretty. Go back 30 years, a lot of 5th wheels were made with the frame of the overhang exposed. "Just Sayin".
You are right. I stand corrected. I just hate these signs of open seals and wrongly stated the floor was right at that level 😑 Your "gotcha" paid off 😉
Bought a Brinkley, should have bought an Alliance. I have only had my Brinkley since August and I may take it in the shorts and trade it on an Alliance.
SOOOOOOOOOO many people pipe in saying 'should've bought a Brinkley'. Personally I don't get it. We looked at a lot of them, and just not impressed. What issues are you having?
@@blueoxontherun9188 yes you guys. I finally stopped responding to people on my channel saying 'just buy a Brinkley and get the best'. NOPE. Different lipstick on the same ol' pig. I've seen plenty of issues with them as well.
@ The list is long: Furrion refrigerator not working Furrion AC in the bedroom dead Furrion battery monitor has never worked Door pops open driving down the road TV had a bad screen Kitchen faucet fell apart Pieces of trim falling off Bathroom door is off the track Covers on front led lights coming off Back ramp does not latch properly All this since August. Just waiting for the next thing to break. But they are fixing it and even though Furrion only wanted to replace the fan in the refrigerator even though it has charred wire by the compressor Brinkley is sending a new refrigerator. I have talked to more than one person on their second or third replacement. What is the definition of insanity? I had no illusions that there would be issues, just not this many and so soon.
You guys were in Canton, you could have visited my favorite rig. It was there, sold a month ago. New owner is not happy. Dealership said no issues, but never fixed what you guys found. Smh
that lower outside trim design by the bedroom is horrible. It appears to rely on sealant instead of diversion of water. No house door or window trim would rely on this type of design. Water coming down the side panel should be diverted away from intruding on the interior. this means the side trim should overlay the lower trim. It could be a z trim design for which the upper trim is behind the side panel and then extends out and over a lower trim. this alternative design would avoid reliance on sealant.
Batteries are not working? Test the batteries themselves. Every time they go dead, their total life gets drastically reduced according to all of the top 3 battery makers in the US. So if batteries already used up one of their nine lives...demand new ones, and verify the production date code and charge on them.

@robertroth287 🤣keep your drawers reinforced, the neighbors don't deserve to see that🤣
@@blueoxontherun9188 I realized that after one went blind. Very sad, really........they are hopeful for some recovery.

How do you know who was ignorant enough to buy it? 🤔🤣
@@blueoxontherun9188 they posted on the FB page of all the problems they were experiencing with a picture
🤣🤣
I tell folks avoid publicly held RV companies' dealers if possible, and used and older may be better.

Good idea...batteries lifespan is counted like cat lives 😉🙂
Consistently poor quality control & paying attention to details 😮
