Absolutely love this floorplan that is loaded with quality standard features and two comfortable seating areas👍but $60,000 for a 22ft no slide camper is a little hard to justify😬
The price tag is what you get when you build something the way it’s supposed to be.
@@stopbreathereset958 I'm just listening to so many buyers that have said that their initial build quality is lacking that of a $60,000 no slide camper.
@Steve Z That Curt trailing arm suspension is worth 10 grand by itself.
Aluminum frame with no wood to rot will make this last a little longer and hold value as well. Big truck Rv channel is testing a trailer worth 150,000 at the moment.
This seems to be fairly priced, it will be way cheaper than MSRP.
Cheers.
@@neilmac4730 Time will tell. They are a new manufacturer, so we’ll find out how their overall build quality is in 5-10 years. They don’t seem to discount them much. I’ve seen them priced in the mid $50,000 range but that might change, but if anyone thinks that’s a value for a 22ft no slide camper then God Bless👍
@@stopbreathereset958 like the old metal Coleman coolers.
I love the fact that they finally built a trailer without the slide. I definitely like how everything was built.
I wouldn't buy a trailer with more than one slide. Every RVer I've talked to online says they always always have problems such as the slide getting stuck or leaking water. And I've seen fifth wheel trailers with FIVE slides. That's just asking for trouble.
@@largol33t1 I worked in a slideout department for several years and I agree. Pain in the ass to build/install.. and after a couple feet you're asking the cheapest parts the industry can find to bear weight with terrible leverage.
Yep. 👍. That’s the one! I’d do the permanent bed option with a high grade mattress. Then I’d remove the lower bunk, and I’d use the top bunk for storage and a clothes rod hanger. The floor area becomes the dog bed area. Just the wife and myself, so seating and extra sleeping space isn’t a premium.
Edit: the exterior aesthetics of this unit are amazing.
I'd pull the lower bunk, build a desk, throw Starlink on the roof, and work from the road.
Awesome ideas!
Yep. No need for bunks. Top storage, bottom desk/dog zone. Permanent bed. Diner-style booth for dining/work
Love the dog sleeping area/desk idea. Hmmmmm
This concept offers total flexibility. The reconfigurable rear end allows for versatility on each trip… you can create different setups for different camping needs!
Great Camper!!! Now price it at 35k and these will sell like hotcakes!!!!! Make more profit by selling more!!! Now who agrees with me LOL.
Yeah because they’re are currently almost $50,000 for one
Despite it being loaded, I couldn't bring myself to even spend 35k on any camper that small. I've heard some say that Ember is like a Cadillac, and some owners state that they're turds on wheels like any other brand. Depends on your needs I guess? I'm going to places like KOAs, and my 10k Coleman built pre-Covid does the job. I could add solar/wheels/custom paint job/better jacks and still be way under 20 grand
Yeah it's cool but WAY too expensive. Should be price about half of what it is (or less).
If you are not at a minimum of 40% gross margin, you are highly at risk of going under as a business.
I wish it were that easy! In RVs, more than many other industries, you absolutely get what you pay for. We use many premium components and higher quality build materials - they all cost more and perform better. “Better” is the goal here. The price reflects that mentality.
I like it when manufacturers give you modular options. Makes it easier for us, the end user.
35:12 to the whole team at Ember. From the manufacturing side to the design and sales side of things. This is one nice camper.! Can you imagine having younger kids and putting them in those bunks with the screens down ,while the adults sit outside around the campfire. As it’s getting late you can keep an eye on the kids and you can effectively watch them until they can’t keep their eyes open anymore! Good job, Josh and good job Ember. 😊
It sounds pretty awesome to me :)
Glad to see that Ember is following through with creating a MSL version of all of their Overland bunkhouse models. It will be interesting to see if they do the same with their Touring Edition bunkhouse models...that would really be a game-changer for the RV industry. I love that they've updated their solar components to Victron and the A/C to the quieter/more efficient Trumba model. I wish that they would bulk up the frame on the Overland Series to enable CCC to increase to 30%-35% of total GVWR. The fact that the cargo capacity of this model is still only 1,250 lbs is not that overwhelming, even with the lack of the slide. I'd also wish they'd bring back the ladder connection point on the side of the trailer and not just on the back of the trailer. Being able to securely access the far side of the trailer comes in really handy in various situations...especially on slide models when you need to clear off the top of the slides but don't have to climb all the way on to the roof to do it.
The idea of a modular camp kitchen setup is an interesting idea, but being able to secure it while going over rough roads would be a challenge. One of the reasons I've always been anti-camp kitchen (and pro-MSL) is because I've accumulated stoves, coolers, etc. over a lifetime of camping so a camp kitchen is really just a bunch of redundant gear. I can already replicate a camp kitchen setup up regardless of the RV and I'm sure I'm not unique in that regard.
One thing that I think Ember should do in ALL THEIR OVERLAND SERIES MODELS is add 12v cigarette-style power outlets alongside their USB and 110v plugs throughout the RV. While ample USB plugs are great for charging phones and other small devices, there are a lot of devices that charge via 110v cords but with big, inline, omnipresent "power bricks" that reduce their voltage down below 110v and often into the 12v range. These include laptops, some larger tablets, speakers, electric razors, etc. These devices typically come with 110v cords because that's what everyone uses at home, but often you can order separate 12v cords for these devices from the mfg or from third parties on Amazon...which is how I recharge my laptop in the car. However, the 12v cords typically still have cigarette-lighter type plugs because the devices they are charging typically draw more power (or have bigger batteries) than USB charging can handle. THE POINT OF ALL OF THIS IS to be able to charge a bigger range of devices directly off of 12v, therefore, bypassing the invertor whenever possible because doing so is much more efficient, and your onboard battery power will last MUCH LONGER the less time the inverter is running.
Other things that I'd like to see added to all of Ember's MSL models is: 1) a screen for the rear access door, which would be great for getting airflow through the RV instead of having to open the side cargo door every time; 2) 12v and/or 110v power to the front cargo box to allow for power to flow to the front cargo box for accessories in/on the cargo box like an air pump, etc. (or even to add a heating element to the propane side for cold weather camping); 3) an integrated off-grid water filter (like from Blu Tech)...or an easy way to mount and hook that type of heavy-duty filter into the existing water system; and 4) electronic anti-sway/ABS braking system - either integrated throughout the Overland Series lineup from the factory or as a factory option.
All in all, I really like the direction that Ember continues to pursue with their Overland Series.
Man.. ty for the effort and time you’ve applied here. Allow me some time to pour thru it!
Love it! I’d love to see them make a 220MSL tandem axle version with no slide and full north south bed. Yes for the modular camp kitchen griddle!
Yesssss
Agreed!
I think this would be a good idea too!
@@christopherjbarth you should tell someone at Ember to do that
Have you seen the new 240TKR?@@JoshtheRVNerd
Incredible how such a light camper, under 5k pounds dry, and such great build quality and be so Big ❤️💚
Thank you!
Hey Josh, I respect the heckin out of you. Your passion and enthusiasm for the content you produce is infectious. I'm not even in the market for a new RV, but I will watch your stuff whenever I can.
Thanks man.
wow Thank you!
Same here. I’ve toyed with the idea of a travel trailer but in all honesty I’m about a year out because I would like to pay cash and have no debt. Randomly came across this channel and have been binge watching and learning a lot for if and when I do get one. Thanks for the great content, candidness and humbleness. 🙂
@@dustinjames4530 Thx for joining up and tuning in! :)
Excellent video Josh. I still want to see this size TT with a North South queen walk around and drop the second jack knife sofa for a bar stool eating space. Keep up the great work Ember!!!
Love no slide!
The color of your shirt is "your" color Uncle Josh! Very handsome color on you!
The one big miss, in my opinion, the sofa across from the kitchen - have a dinette option. You know how I like my dinettes!
Yes a two person dinette - but on the road side - same curb side as the bunk house model.
@@captaindanield5827 exactly, even better on that side!
This is a really cool camper. I’d love something like this
These are so fun
@@JoshtheRVNerd I’ve been looking for something to live out of when I’m stationed away from the family, that I can still store all my kit while having a smallish, footprint. Love the fact I can a set those bunks to make basically a walk in closet/storage, and have what equates to a studio apartment.
Now it’s just figuring out the budget 🤣
I like this MSL layout best for the size anyway. As far as an outside kitchen, YES YES YES!
If you missed it! YES! It doesn't need to be huge, a grill, a small fridge and a dog dish sink is ok. The water port is right there. Maybe a tiny adapter hose running to a faucet from that port, put a 5 gallon bucket under the drain.
Build it to swing out for it's storage position. You're welcome 😂. Nice job Josh.
Ty!!!
Let’s hope there fit and finish has improved. If there are water leaks, and terrible fit and finish-it doesn’t matter how good the bones are.
As someone who likes to go off grid dispersed camping, I really like the solar package. A Three way fridge would be nice as an option. I like the murphy bed (I also roll around and snuggle). The fridge seems to be a good size and the bathroom looks nice. Storage seems to be plentiful and the cargo tie downs are handy. I do like that there is no slide. I give it two thumbs up.
TY Daniel!!
I've never heard someone drop so many music references from so many different genres in one video, especially an RV video. But at least we all now know your playlist.
Just don't go chasin' waterfalls, k?
yes! Yes! YES!!!!!! Finally, better late than never!
I am a 64 year old Poppa, so when it's grand kis camping time, the bunk beds are perfect!
Solar complimenting functionable floor plan!
Perfect!!!!! Total homerun!!!!
(Love the suspension)
Thanks Brother, as usual, great job! Thank you
Ty Phil
I seriously love this model! It’s so versatile and fabulous!!! Wish I had the $$$ for it today! Yes on the modular removable outdoor kitchen!
I love this model! Love Embers anyway, but well done, Ember, for designing this based on customers' input! 👏 I love how versatile and multi-use it is, and how relatively light weight, simple and beginner-friendly it is.
Josh, I really like that suggestion of the modular, removable camp kitchen! 👍
Ty!!
Love The Walk Around 👍👍👍👍👍
I fell in love with this at the camper and trailer show. It covers deer and elk season, camping with the littles, couples camping and solo camping. Room for all the gear, can handle Montana wind, and a true queen bed. Delicious ❤
What would be a super super neat option, if they put a roof top tent on top with a pass through portal from inside so the kids or you and your spouse could sleep or just hang out up there. Scout campers have one similar. Just something fun to think about.
Totally agree. Seems like the stargazer skylight would be a great locale for that.
the 2nd floor will make it really unique and justified the higher price tag.
Roof top tent is an option. Does not say if it's accessible from the inside. Hard shell tent, so I doubt it.
The roof isn't exactly flat, so if you're into leaning...
Nearly perfect. A dual axel would make it even better!
I am sure that’ll happen
Finally!!!! The ultimate floor plan in a small rv trailer!!!! I’ll have to save up a bit but this is it!!!
Good pick!
I love the Teddy Ruxpin reference! I always thought they were so creepy and it never occurred to me to play some good music that he could repeat 😂😎
hahaha :)
Love this model. As far as outdoor kitchen design, I’ve seen some euro models (don’t recall models) that have the slide out trays at base(floor) level that have your small sink, gas grill, some utensil storage, etc. something similar might work with this ember model 😊 🤷🏼♀️ I’m no engineering expert; many of the euro designs I saw I wish we had here with our stateside RV companies.
Very cool unit Josh.. but you gotta go duel axle all the way. And after you've had the advantages of a slide, it's really tough to go back.
Love the cargo access in the back, along with adjustable bunks. All other manufacturers be on alert.. Ember is an engineering genius!
I agree about the dual axles; I've had blowouts in single-axle trailers, and it's been a lot hairier than when there's another tire in the system.
Regarding the slide, I can see either way...but Ember does have the 191MSL, which is basically the same thing with a slide. I can see cases for both: if I were a solo camper, the simplicity of the 190MSL would be attractive, and the extra space not a huge deal; for couples, having that extra couple feet is really nice.
@@boskone yep we got kids, so the extra space with the breakfast nook slide is critical, especially when the weather isn't cooperating.
Will definitely have to checkout Ember when it's time for an upgrade. The backdoor and adjustable bunks look phenomenal.
Yep, very cool RV but worried about single axle for long hauls… opinion?
@@elaineolson9951 dual axles provide greater stability when towing and parked/chocked, along with heavier GVW ratings. Duals will also allow you options in the case of a blowout on the highway in an emergency, whereas single axle blowouts can be very dangerous situations.
But generally dual axles means more weight and a higher price tag. So there's a tradeoff between options, the build design and safety, versus trailer costs and towing vehicle limitations.
#1 thing I want in a camper that no manufacturers seem to care about - make it MOUSE PROOF!
Nothing is mouse proof. Unless it’s a welded metal box. If there a crack or seal of any kind, a mouse can get in
Love it! NO SLIDE! WooHoo!
:) :)
Thank you Josh. This one is awesome. I found my new favorite. They fixed a lot of the things that I wasn't sure about before. The bathroom space is great still, the tv is a good spot, better solar equipment, and no slide to worry about.
I would like the idea of a removal camp kitchen since there isn't a lot space in the kitchen. I was thinking of bringing a griddle in and a small table back there.
The one thing left is I saw a few not great reviews by owners of other models. Did they fix the floor so it doesn't turn black? Are they getting better about warranty work? I saw a very concerning video where when it was fixed it was replaced the trim with nasty quarter round and they cut the floor so there was this weird seam.
What an amazing trailer!! I'm fairly new to the RV research, and THIS model is amazing!! ❤
It's SUCH a fun model and series
Total awesomeness. Bunk area love it, great for people who travel to flea markets selling their treasures. Super job Ember. Have a super week, take care and stay safe.
You do the very same Debora!!
Hi Uncle Josh! Next time, would you please get on a bunk bed so we can see how challenging it is for an adult? Thanks for all you do!!
This dude is the best!! I’m new to RV shopping and these videos are soo informative and entertaining😂. The versatile bunk / storage space is amazing! I would want the option to add a batwing canopy?
Where would you want it to mount?
I like this layout as well, love the kitchen side swap from the 191 MSL. And I've mentioned the idea of a modular outdoor kitchen module previously, so I'm a big fan of the suggestion! This layout makes me wonder how an optional countertop/breakfast bar in place of the jackKnife sofa would look. It may provide an open feel. Either way, I love what Ember is doing with these MSL models and the flexibility they are providing consumers.
Ty George!
Love that you are so honest and complete in your descriptions and reviews! Like this rv with no slide.
TY Alicia! :)
I love a bunkhouse with no dinette of any kind. On rain days we could easily eat from our laps or even a portable/foldavble tv tray. If it’s not raining, we are outside for every meal. I wish more campers had no dinette options. The only thing we ever use the dinette for in our camper is extra prep surface or a catchall for our backpacks and stuff. Plus as a sleeping surface, unless they’re small kids, it sucks. 👍🏻
Mom similar- we often eat right from the couch at home
Yes! Can't wait to see the double axle version of this without a slide. Love the improvements they've made like Victron stuff. Also appreciate all their higher end stuff.
I'd really like to see Ember try their hand at the classic airstream layout (bedroom in the front, bathroom in the middle, then kitchen and nice viewiful living room). It'd be more for a full time working couple than a mini toy hauler.
As far as the modular kitchen goes, I don't think we'd have a use for it but maybe others would! If there's already a kitchen in the rig, that's what we'd use along with gear we already have to cook outside.
Keep up the great work Josh and Ember! When they perfect a slightly larger, double axle, no slide version of this guy, we'll be ready!
#rvnerdherd
😊 TY for watching and sharing. They're always gathering input on these!
I love the idea of a modular kitchen for the MSL models. Also, I think Ember needs to look at additional solar capability for Max in order to support the second (540ah total) battery capacity. Adding another 200 - 400 watts would make the camper almost fully self contained. And a convection microwave standard would be nice.
You can add a portable panel to these as well which helps close the wattage vs amp hours ratio gap btw
This will be perfect for just me and my dog. The only one thing I would do. I will get rid of the bunkbeds and make that as a walk-in closet.❤❤
You totally could with this setup!
LOVE IT! Love the video, the info, the revisions (because the things I didn't like they fixed😀), the dad joke humor, and the honesty.
I love the solar package update and the bunk area updates ARE HUGE. The storage pass through is really gross, but the bunk/storage area makes it a tiny issue. I would really struggle hitting the canopy arm because I'm severely clumsy, and I just know that would be an expensive learning curve for me. For that reason, I'd very sadly pass on having a canopy. No temptation to break something for me, please. Not a deal breaker. The bathroom sink looks SUPER cheap, it would be replaced PRONTO! But everything else is great. I don't have any other complaints and love this floor plan. For a single person who would mostly use the bunk for some outdoor toy's, and closet/dog space, I love it. And when the toy's are in use, friends could sleep there. Seriously, good job everyone!
TY so much for watching and sharing! They really are trying to fulfill what folks have been asking for. it just takes some time :)
This is a great trailer! I really like that back door where you can also slide things in that way, and then the big door on the side if there is something bigger. Like someone else said that bottom area could be for a dog kennel and even a couple of kitty cats! Thanks, Josh. 😊😊
My pleasure Karen! It's a SUPER multi-functional design for sure!
I really like this one. Just traded my truck worth a Nissan Frontier with 6700 total pull and tongue weight is over 670. Will be ready soon
I keep coming back to this video just to look at the rear and side cargo doors. It's honestly one of the coolest thing I've seen on a camper trailer before.
😊
I could use this as a single's RV.
I could store the teddy ruxpin mattresses in the pass thru and hang a rod in the bunk space and use it for my closet .. a dresser and even a tiny vanity could fit .. I like it! ❤
Yeah super adjustable!
Would love to see an electric switch to move the bunks all the way up and down like ones in a tow hauler!
That’s also a near concept
Great layout, and your honesty is always appreciated, sir.
Don't ever lose this energy. I love your vibe man
TY :)
I love this one, definitely my favorite trailer under 100k. Liked it so much that I filled out their order interest form back in March (and sent a couple follow up emails), but I never even got a response from Ember. That doesn't inspire confidence in their customer service after the sale. However, I love the floor plan - the flex space with no slide is great. In the kitchen, I'd prefer the countertop be all the same level (vs. dropping down), but not a big deal. Wish they could somehow give it the same kitchen as the 170 MRB - that's a beauty! I'm a little wary of the TV location in the kitchen, seems like it would get dirty from cooking? I hope this floorplan will be a permanent part of their line up and not just a limited run - I'd like to pick one up.
I think the "limited edition" thing they have on it is more reflecting that they are only building a limited initial run to dealerships and may not have enough to go around at first
It's a full fledged member of their lineup for sure
I agree with your comments on the bathroom sink. Looks really cheap. Is there an aftermarket swaption available?
The best RV ever! It has the bunk beds we always wanted + a SEPARATE ROOM FOR YOUNG PEOPLE. 🙂 For us it is useless to have a 2nd kitchen outdoors. Plus two couches and solar!! I totally love this. ❤
TY Donna! Glad you like it :)
Love the floorplan! Being an avid outdoor/overland guy, the double over double could use a swing door on the interior wall for an option of having that outdoor kitchen or entertainment area without worrying about the bugs getting inside. It could swing and lock back to recover your storage and bunk area when not used. Like with anything there is always give and take however and that could run into you losing a bit of storage space.
Josh, I heard this is by far the best overall AC unit in the RV market? true or false? Are they designing the same floorplan but higher GV with 2 axles for 2023? I would need to swap master bed with my upgraded RV mattress so I'm thinking that would not work with any murphy bed setup. Maybe it will fit but wasn't sure what you think? Max solar package on this unit is ?
Removable Bunks! Exactly what we've been looking for😮. But the price 😢
You had me at No Wood. This is best construction for the money I've seen. I'm a cargo conversion guy. But this is buy. I need longer but darn this is great. 57 years RVing.
YoU are the man to do a video about payload. Showing adding gas. Luggage and passengers. It could be the hit home viral video.
Then the one on front and side wind load.
I love this RV.
You mean something like this? th-cam.com/video/NiB6-4FLryU/w-d-xo.html
Great video Josh! I noticed that GRAB HANDLE next to the shower!! Awesome for us OLDER folks!
Another great option they could do with this is make a couch that switches into a bar top to eat at looking out that camp side window. They can use the adjustable bunk design to make that happen.
I like that idea
Now you are thinking!!
Will the rooftop tent hatch be an option next year on this model?
Yep yep!
Great coverage on this ground breaking RV! Love it. Only one suggestion though, make the AC cover in bright white. Everything else seems just perfect.👍🏻
Good call!
I think the removable camp kitchen option sounds amazing!
This checks most boxes for me. I don't mind the plastic bathroom sink, given all of the positive aspects. As you said, no RV is perfect.
👍🏻
I asked and Ember delivered!! Fantastic layout, really well though out. Very few campers are designed with the single, remote working traveler in mind and I’ve met many on my travels, most all choosing a van. This beats that choice in so many ways. I could care less about a built in kitchen. Would really like to know the weight specs with the max solar package. This would be key for a lot of people as most adventurers would order it this way I think.
Agreed! It’s really a stand out offering
Solar equipment isnt heavy. My 3 foot by 5 foot house panels weigh less than 20 lbs each. I dont see a max solar option upping the weights by much unless you went fully insane on adding batteries.
Why does a solo remote worker need a bunk house? Lol
Yes, weight is a big consideration for me as a mostly solo traveler (sometimes wife will tag along) that uses a 2007 Toyota 4X4 4Runner 6cyl Limited w/tow package, it may not qualify to tow this Ember. Ron (in Utah)
“Like a good neighbor stay over there” is definitely my motto. 😂
hahaha
This is what I want! Plan on hitting the road for a year or two with my dog. This is perfect
Almost Perfect, 1st Add 3' to keep it under 25', 2nd turn the queen bed (Front to back) and add a 2nd axle, will not buy a single axle, one blow out and it's done,....getting there 👍
That could be awesome
Agreed. Not too concerned with the bed because I’m a single guy, but for sure would never tow a single axle
#NerdHerd 🎉
LOVE IT!!
Thank you for some great information and updates. I like the idea of different audio options in the rvs. Every RV I have owned had terrible audio and tvs .
Glad it was helpful!
Nice rig. I would not change anything. I just wish the price was around 40k. I would not add the camp station. Not needed. Great rig.
Ty for watching 😊
I am very annoyed with this Ember!. ..
Very annoyed it's not already hitched up to my truck😂
😆
😍 Love this one. Practically perfect.
🙌🏻
For a small camper, your right, this is perfect for just about every type of individual.
Agree! It's SUPER multi-functional and does many things VERY well for a weirdly wide variety of owners
$60000 = Greed has taken over this planet😢
“Greed” is a bit relative. It’s also what drives the economy.
I absolutely love the layout of this. It’s absolutely perfect. I would remove the cushion from the bottom bunk, remove the extender shelf and slide a rolling desk chair in there and make it an office/desk area. Totally dig this. One drawback is no oven. Not a deal breaker though.
Thanks so much! 😊
I love that MSL system! And I love the idea of a removable camp kitchen. Ingenious!
I would love to see what it looks like
Oh man, so would I!
Love the simplicity! MSL looks amazing. Victron components is a huge improvement. A modular outdoor kitchen would be a great idea!
I might simplify further with a black tank delete for composting toilet, and skylight delete.
Well, that was the most entertaining RV review I've ever seen! And well edited too. We clearly come from the same era and humor.
TY! I’m not a trained editor or anything. Just trying to put out the info I’d want to know if I were buying one of these!
Thanks for introducing this T.T. to us Josh. It has features that I have been looking for...no dinette(waste of space) and no pop-outs(something else to go wrong). I was looking at the CrossTrail 21XG because of the rear door, to be able to carry a kayak inside, along with my bicycle. I just didn't know if I want another vehicle to maintain...I already own a truck with a cap on it. The only thing I would hope to change is the standard toilet/black tank to a composting toilet such as, the "OGO" or the "Nature's Head". Eliminating the need to go to the dump station at all for extended "boon-docking". This trailer looks to be a stout build, the suspension, frame, aluminum and azdel construction. I like the fact that they have installed a two-burner propane stove top, not an induction cooktop that would drain more of the battery power. I wouldn't bother with the outdoor pull-out kitchen. I like to cook at a picnic table in the campsite, away from the rig, weather permiting. "Happy Travels!"
This one was my pleasure for sure!
I am watching vid as you answered and I Love this trailer and your review so TY very much!
😊😊😊
man it must be so nice to be on a level in life where you can actually get things like this. this thing is like the perfect solo camper.
This looks pretty awesome and actually looks ALMOST exactly like what I'm looking for. I wish they would have just made it a bit lighter. I'm towing with an Expedition and having a little more headroom in my tow capacity would make me feel better.
Absolutely amazing
Things I would look at improving in this model
• Bug netting option for keeping out the blood suckers while enjoying the fresh air.
• All electric inside the RV making it fully possible to be off grid if needed with fridge, induction cooktop and even convection microwave inside. People can always use a BBQ outside to cook things if they want to use gas.
• The large side door on the back side I see no reason for, instead I'd rather see a wider full size door with an optional ramp I can pull out or attach to help bring in an e-scooter and those e-bikes and other items I might want to put in that space to bring with me. Would also be great for those with mobility issues to bring in their mobility scooter for the ride.
Overall I love Ember and where they are going with things, always look forward to seeing what they come out with next.
With all the videos my husband and I have watched, we've drawn out out own dream design of what we'd like to see, just waiting for someone to come out with something similar... or happy to give the design to someone like Ember who can make it a reality if in exchange they'd give us one to enjoy ourselves. One can dream ^^
Keep up the great job on videos Josh! Haven't seen anyone else that makes these RVs as interesting as you do. Much appreciated ♥
Wow ty for that! I appreciate your kind words and ty for visiting 😊
I love ember campers. Waiting for their true toy hauler and I'll own one.
Thanks, Josh! I’d LOVE an outdoor kitchen!
TY James!
Josh, you are very good at what you do. You are a good educator. The unit is really cool for its size,
Thank you!!
Love your videos..the most entertaining of all
Glad you like them!
Wow, this is almost the perfect camper. SIngle guy here, rarely need more the space for two. But I DO need office space, and too many of these size campers just fill the back full of bunkbeds, this system is perfect! I can set up my office on the lower bunk (sans pads of course), and use the top for storage for all my tools and such. yum yum! seriously, this is a great camper.
On the note of the "modular cooking unit" Idea. I love it and Id support it and pay for it. if I'm NOT using my office, being able to have a cooking setup right there to pull out would be great.
Thank you for watching!
Optional and modifying bunk area/ kitchen. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Josh, you were on FIRE with this review! We all enjoyed this one. Cool RV.
Side Note: At 20:40, the yellow reflection from the building wall casts a really cool color on the RV. The black and gold hue looks really nice; possibly a limited edition special color release.
That’s the Emberglow 😉
Love it they hit it out of the park nicely done nice speed reference to caught it
😉
Nailed it! (The design)
Thanks for covering the interior first!
My pleasure!
This is the one I was always hoping for. Now I just need to save up and hope you all open a Bish's RV near So Cal 😆. Thank you for always bringing us the latest and greatest.
We need a store in California for sure
Modular camp kitchen option? Yes please!
I went toy hauler because the double bunks never allowed removal for dog kennels. The Wolf Pup 18rjb was just right. I love this flex design. I want area for dog kennels. With the flex "room" I can imagine some pretty neat possibilities. Planning for a couple standard sizes, but also custom offerings would appeal to a bunch of dog show and "dogs are family" nomads. Hope evolution of this model is around when I am ready to move up.
I suspect they’re working on a big brother to this with some kind of rear ramp
This is totally giving me mid 90s Jayco 264BH vibes!!!! 💯👍👍
Holy crap!! I think this might just be the one!!! Other than the lack of a 2-way fridge, this one seems to come closer to perfect for a lot of dry camping, than about anything else I've seen for 2023. I am so glad I watch all of your videos. Thanks again, Josh!!!! 😀
2way fridges are leaving the industry quickly. One supplier stopped making them and the only other one jacked up their pricing so you won’t see many of them for much longer
@@JoshtheRVNerdYou have contacts with the manufacturers. Please, please, PLEASE, ask them to start making them repairable. Spending $2000 to replace a fridge when one component breaks is ridiculous. Not having a two way refer keeps me from running out to buy that unit. It’s perfect except for the Furrion refer. Instant no for me.
@@JoshtheRVNerd I know, right?? Everything is changing fast in the R.V. world recently it seems. It makes me glad I don't have your job! Thanks again, Josh!!! I will definitely keep watching!!!
