    Great thorough 1 year and 2 year reviews. Extremely helpful for a new rv shopper.

    I like your outside shower. That is way better than the plastic ones that seem to come with every rv.

    Nice job on the video, still looking for my Sunset Park. They have the new LTD versions out, looking at a 13MJ. Disappointed the newer models only have the 12 volt fridges.

      Thanks. And yes I agree on the fridges. Almost all campers are electric only now. I'm glad I got mine when I did.

    Lots of smart changes and helpful information sir! You should be hired by Sunset Park for research and development for the Sun-Lite 16BH future models.. I would buy your used model before buying a new one with all of your fantastic upgrades..

    Great video! Thank you for sharing your experience along the way. I watched many of your videos before purchasing and thank you for helping us make an informed decision. We followed your advice on the winterization and also ordered OEM cabinet doors to put under the dinette like yourself - thank you!
    Question - Do you have any videos or tips to share about the leaf springs? After our second trip, the passenger side failed and looks just like yours, albeit a 2024 with only a few hundred towing miles. We have a spring break trip planned and may have to replace these myself to salvage our trip. I am completely blind going into this and appreciate any pointers. I appreciate your time and again, thank you for sharing the great content!

    Thanks for the 1 yr & 2 yr videos. I wish I could hire you to do the upgrades you did to your camper, to my camper! One problem I have had is both doors for under storage do not lock because the locking mechanism spins 360 degrees around when locked. Someone on a forum told me to get square washers but I have had no luck finding them.. I am shocked you have not mentioned this problem. Do you not have this problem?

    • @videozar_
      @videozar_  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Nichole. I haven't had any problems with the locks on the pass through storage doors. I do know they close pretty tightly and if I really tried, I could make them spin in place. But they don't do that when I latch and lock them. Mayne I got lucky with mine.

  • @Fairedog
    @Fairedog 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I'm with you on the fridge, I prefer the gas/electric combo. You need too much solar power to make the newer 12 volt fridges worth it, and even then what happens when you park in the shade? The manufacturers are just trying to save $$$ by putting in these worthless 12v fridges.

    • @videozar_
      @videozar_  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I think there's also some pressure on them to just reduce the amount of gas appliances in general. I'm seeing fewer ovens as well.

      @videozar_  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @marymurphy7780 If I'm cooking something like burgers or bacon, I have a fold up splash guard that fits around the stove. No worries of that from the oven but you could get some splatter from the stove top for sure.

    Hey John your videos have been so amazing and informative. Best out there! I have a 2021 TRD Pro 4 Runner, I see you’re pulling it with the Titan now I love my 4Runner. Can you give me some insight? Looking to purchase the sunlite 16 sport like yours!

    • @videozar_
      @videozar_  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks buddy. I appreciate the kind words. I really miss my 4Runner but needed a truck. Would have never traded it otherwise. Such a great vehicle. And it tows the 16BH great.....but only after adding a trailer brake controller and weight distribution hitch. It has plenty of power to tow 3500 pounds, but the 4Runner is not as heavy and has a shorter wheel base than a truck. So i found it being dragged all over the highway by big trucks etc... Also, going over undulating hills and things caused it bounce quite a lot. I got an Andersen Weight Distribution Hitch to fix all that. It towed perfectly fine afterward. So I'd recommend that to anyone towing something as big and boxy as a 16BH.

    What kind of foam did you use for seat cusions, and where did you get it? Thanks!

    • @videozar_
      @videozar_  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I bought a 4" foam from Amazon. It won't allow me to paste a link here, but they sell it in various lengths. It is easy to cut with a utility knife. And the cushion covers have zippers so it's just a matter of unzipping, removing the old foam, and stuffing the new stuff in there.

Probably not an oven. But same general floorplan. If you're curious, check out Scenic Roads RV in Manchester, TN.
