Thank you for saying that. It means a lot. I've got some new camera gear that i'll be using for my next batch of camping videos so hopefully people will enjoy them.
Have you ever run into a problem with the 100 watt solar panels charging your batteries that run your fridge when boondocking? Thanks, I've enjoyed your videos. We're considering a 2025, but we boondock a lot and wonder if it will run the fridge. Apparently, the newer 16BH don't have a gas option for the fridge.
@juliaosgood7853 my fridge actually doesn't run on the battery. It's either shore power or propane. So I use it on gas when I'm boondocking. And you're right, most fridges aren't made to run on propane these days.
@WBWB2003 will do! This will be my third year dragging it out there. It does just fine. But keep in mind...I'm talking dirt roads....not trails. I'm not dragging it over any boulders. But I've got a drone for this trip so I'll get some footage.
@ohjeep thanks. And no need to run propane while driving. Not only is that against the law in some states, it's just unnecessary. Everything stays cold for 8+ hours without it.
Thanks for the video. I really appreciate you showing the back seat for Ricky. We have five dogs. I was contemplating a set up like you have. I was wondering which brand that was? I’m actually thinking about building 3 custom travel kennels in the back truck bed and 2 for the back seat..because we have five dogs and they like to fight sometimes
@@HomesteadOverlandVirginia 5 dogs! Wowsers.... I bet they keep you busy. This dog cover is by a company called iBuddy. It won't let me paste the link but you can find it on Amazon.
@hpd6881 I towed mine with a 4Runner for a couple years. Once I added a brake controller and weight distribution hitch, it towed great. It's definitely a sail in the wind but was manageable ok.
Looks like you got it covered. Could you let us know how the shower dispenser works, I have been considering getting one. I saw one video where one fell down.
I will. I've seen the kind that attach with adhesive and I don't think they'd hold up for long in a camper. This one screws into the wall so hopefully it stays put.
Ooh it's a lot to explain. I have a video or two on it somewhere on my channel. This camper's water is all internal. It doesn't have any water lines underneath like most others. With the pass through opening, I can keep the tank up front nice and warm. I have heat tape wrapped around the water pump as well. So as long as i have electricity, i can camp in extremely cold weather. The only thing that freezes is my waste tanks. But a cup of hot water in the drain has thawed them out the few times that happened. I've seen waste tank heaters that keep the tank thawed, but rarely do anything to warm up the valves on the side. That's the most common place to freeze So I didn't bother with tank heaters. If the camper had an enclosed underbelly, then they'd probably work ok. But so far, going on my 3rd year of winter camping, it hasn't been an issue as-is.
@@videozar_ thanks. I’ll go back through your videos. I watched most of them a year or so ago, and confirmed the 16BH is my next camper. I may call the dealer advertised on the back of your camper too.
Nice campground and beautiful footage. Thanks for taking us along. My puppers Níco loves watching Ricky & your adventures!! PEACE from Shiner Texas.
Great, descriptive video. You are really prepared. Can't wait to see some good videos.
We have a Sunlite 18RD. I've watched many videos but this sort of stuff gave me all the best ideas. Keep it up, man, really appreciate it.
@@johnbertin2806 thanks John!
Nice job.
Thank you!
I liked the video. All your videos are great, you should have a lot more views, everything is done well.
Thank you for saying that. It means a lot. I've got some new camera gear that i'll be using for my next batch of camping videos so hopefully people will enjoy them.
I like watching this kind of video 😁 great video!
Thank you I enjoyed your video! Thank you
Did you delete the closet? I think I saw a video of you doing that great idea

Would love to see footage of this trailer’s handling off-road on your upcoming trip. See how that off-road package performs.
@WBWB2003 will do! This will be my third year dragging it out there. It does just fine. But keep in mind...I'm talking dirt roads....not trails. I'm not dragging it over any boulders. But I've got a drone for this trip so I'll get some footage.

love it. you pack light! LOL
Haha...i'm not sure if this is light or not!
did you remove the closet next to the bed? It look very nice and spacious!!
Thanks. Yes, i did remove the closet. I've got a video on the process on my channel here somewhere. It is definitely better without it.
How did you know that I was working while watching this?
Hahahaa....i put that in there just for you.
I’ve been looking at this same trailer to tow with my 4Runner. How does it tow when it’s windy?
@hpd6881 I towed mine with a 4Runner for a couple years. Once I added a brake controller and weight distribution hitch, it towed great. It's definitely a sail in the wind but was manageable ok.
I tow this trailer behind a Tesla, I just follow Zar for ideas for it lol. But it tows great

@@videozar_ That should do it😂
I'm quite interested in this camper. Have you had ANY issues with rain leaks?
@@jackmiller5147 no. None at all.
You mentioned it’s your camping season. Did you install black/gray tank heaters for the cold weather, or do you dry camp?

@@WBWB2003 I bought mine from Scenic Roads RV in Manchester, TN. It was a great experience. It's a small private/family owned business. They're good.
