"Wow." That's my takeaway from this one. Just.. "WOW!"
I've seen some big fancy toy haulers, but this Momentum took some things to the next level. Granted, at nearly 17,000lbs empty weight they had the space to do things nobody else COULD do!
Everything on this RV is a little bigger than what you normally find from the full TWO bath to the full super slide with sofa AND dinette you just don't usually find in a super slide! The interior comforts and luxury on this feel more like a Solitude luxury fifth wheel than a "toy hauler" RV as well!
Even going thru this video.. I don't feel it does this RV justice. You HAVE to see one of these in person sometime even if you don't ever plan to buy one!

*PRICING: Grand Design has a rather uncommon policy preventing their dealers from advertising anything but MSRP essentially. As a result I neither have a good idea of what the actual sale price might run on this nor will the link in the video description be able to help you get anything but MSRP. As a result I'm basically **_forced_** to ask you to contact our team for sale pricing. It's not how I normally prefer to operate but wanted to let you know up front!*

Thanks Josh.
This is the best toy hauler floor plan I’ve ever seen. Grand Design does have one that includes a sectional (can’t remember the model), but I LOVE that this one doesn’t need any extra steps when your closing the slides.
The garage area would be great for someone in a wheelchair. You would have to do a little remodeling of the bathroom to bring it up to handicap assessable code. I could see as a full-time camper.
We ordered ours, with all upgrades except Happy Jack, the extra steps, and chairs, a few weeks ago. We opted for the new silver and charcoal color. I wish I could find a good representation of the color. I am sure we will love it. We are going full time RV and plan to use the garage for living, as well as transporting our bicycles and maybe a dirt bike or two. And couple of Oru kayaks...this is why we chose this RV. The options for that garage are limitless. The other big selling point was the fresh water holding tank. We plan to boondock anytime we can so this was a big plus for us.
Man congrats! Hope she treats you well!
Going to pick this bad boy up for $35K in Q4 2022 when diesel prices top out at $7/gallon.
Hahaha 😂 Yessss!!!!!
Quarter 4 might be a little generous😬especially since we refuse to be energy independent once again and instead just keep buying oil from our enemies😵💫😵💫😵💫
@@stevez340 It's getting ugly fast.... And there's no reason for it! Like you said, we have the ability to fix it ourselves but the decision makers aren't allowing it to happen... So sad.
She's a beauty. Beyond my budget and my F250 but wow these toy haulers just keep getting better and better. Well done Grand Design!
Put towels there! I could sew in heaven in the back and not feel left out! Love the sweep vacuum port! That shower is awesome for seniors!
Great idea!!
I love the front basement storage over the fuzion. I like tie downs in the garage in the fuzion over this one. The living space in the fuzion 428. Sometimes I wish you could mix the two together.
Man.. I get that
Love your vids Josh! I would really like to see a “toy hauler” series. Start from the smallest, lightest toy hauler and go up to the biggest, heaviest, most features unit. Garage size is important but not as much as livable space inside the rest of the unit. Feature all types also. From travel trailer through Class A. Just a thought.
Interesting Idea. Thank you. Will have to see what I could come up with
Josh I have a few additional questions which were not covered.
1) disc brakes
2) roof top ac/heat pumps
3)triple or dual pain windows
4) 50amp cord storage reel
5) wifi max booster
6)vision system camera's
Coming from a forest river cedar creek these were standard with the exception of heat pump, and disc brakes.
Apologies - I am in the passenger's seat of my family vehicle heading to a function and it's extremely difficult for me to refer back to youtube comments after answering thru them
I would highly recommend speaking with a member of our davenport, IA team or perhaps twin falls where we have grand design RVs on hand & asking for a knowledgeable specialist for your questions
Apologies I'm simply out of position on this one. All reasonable questions but I am not able to remember all details of every RV offhand & don't want to get some specifics wrong for you
This has been a favorite toy hauler for a long time, and it's getting more elegant. It's a great way to sleep all your tall kids. The older kids will also make that second full bath all the more clutch when avoiding shower-time arguments.🚿 It's great to be able to bring a golf cart if there are some small stores within scooter/cart distance.🛵 My husband and I can be a bit more economical when doing some light shopping, laundry if we don't hook up a washer/dryer, and ice and beer and ice cream runs on those warm evenings. I would add the solar package because once it's set up, sunlight is free.☀
Pretty nice and big rig, always like a good dresser in the main bed room. It could eat crackers in my bed anytime. There is an old song for ya. Stay safe and healthy Josh.
There's an inside joke in my family about crackers in bed. This had me laughing for all the wrong reasons lol
This is the grandaddy of haulers
I wish they made that without that second bathroom and open up that living space a whole lot more!
Where would you want the space used? Garage? Living? Kitchen?
We have been looking for something to snowbird with when the wife and I retire. Primarily between the Washington coast where we'll live and central California where the kids and grandchildren live. That back area will be the office for my wife and I. Now to get the 220K for it and a suitable tow rig... This is much more appealing and useful to my specific needs than a 200k class A with a toad
I've always been more of a towable person. Some motorized stuff is growing on me, but I don't know that I'll ever personally lean more that way.
I saw a couple that has one like this and they had tons of issues keeping it cool down in Vegas during a heatwave
Chad and Tara from Changing Lanes. Now, to be fair, it was almost 120.. no RV is going to keep it's cool in that.. hell, houses have issues with it!
There problem was RV park low voltage issue on top of the heat.
This falls into the category of when I get away from it all, I wanna take it all with me. The video got my through my 30 minute stationary bike warm up ...thanks
SPARM huh? Guess what's not for dinner..tofu chicken sparm...
Would you believe creating content to help someone with their stationary bike warmups is EXACTLY my goal here?
I mean it's not of course. But.. would you BELIEVE that?? LOL :)
Thanks Jeff. We'll see you next warm up :)
Josh you remind me of those Old Crazy Eddie electronics store commercials with your loud outbursts, really funny addition to your video
Man I’ve recorded so many videos recently I don’t even know what I might’ve done but… Thanks? Lol
@@JoshtheRVNerd ….Sorry the video for the GD Momentum 397TH….lol
If I was going full time e and won the lottery, this would be first purchase.
These Momentums are beyond amazing!! I wish it was even an option I could consider ha But man, they are so wisely built and perfectly useable! No sacrifices at all with these things!! Thanks for the video Josh! 🤠
Glad you like them! I was pleased with it. Reminded me of what Fuzion was doing when we first picked them up as Haylett years ago in that they were really focused on providing a more plush living experience. The "Toy Hauling" was almost a secondary thought on these. "Just make the garage big enough, then build a beautiful interior" sort of mindset
@@JoshtheRVNerd Exactly!! When i first saw them the first thing i thought of was a Fuzion haha my favorite Grand Design momentum is the front living, mid kitchen, rear bedroom with the bed that's on the lift. Gives you a smaller compact garage but you still have a garage space. Be the perfect trailer to take my motorcycle with me! But it's nowhere near my budget and it's heavy. Ha
This is not for camping it's for luxury living. Beautiful, I would be happy full time in this for sure 😃
for sure
You know.....there is just something about toy haulers to me....makes my heart beat a bit faster. lol This is a nice one! And two full bathrooms! Yes!!! Keep them coming, Josh! Thanks!
I just love what GD is doing with these utility glampers (not toy hauler). Above and beyond on the simple things like the upholstery of the garage seats. Yeah, those price tags on these can be scary.
Utility Glamper really is a great description. TY
I would like to see the Momentum with the side patio. it has become my dream trailer, and started a special account to save up for it.
I'll have to watch for that one. Side patios have become increasingly rare
Very nice 5th wheel! 👍👍👍👍👍
If you want more "mind blown-edness" check out the 399 with the side patio!
My jaw hit the floor on the specs alone. That thing is a monster. I really enjoyed the tour, well done. If I was motivated to needing a toy hauler, that RV has it in spades.
lol yep :)
It's like someone said "What if we just didn't care about the weights or anything and just built a monster?"
Nice toliet in the garage 😂
Josh, awesome tour!!! I WANT THIS!!!
I can't fault you for taste lol :)
Wow there is soooo much to break on that beast. This is exclusively an RV park unit, so residential fridge is the obvious choice. Ain’t nobody boondockin with this monster.
nice to know i could use this as a park seasonal with 30 amp ( hunny i found a new trailer)
This is A NICE RIG, WOW!
yep yep :)
Two Way Fridge
We own & love a Solitude 374TH and would love to see its sister, the Momentum 376THS, maybe get your thoughts on the unique setup.
I hope to get my hands on one. Solitude originated that model as far as I know. I've seen several builders attempt to clone it but none have ever really found the success GD has with it
From someone who ordered the new THS floor plan last October, and picked it up two weeks ago, this is not the new THS floor plan. Garage is a foot longer in the THS (12.6 vs 13.6). The kitchen slide is wider, getting rid of the window and putting in an additional cabinet. Master bathroom has two entry points now and master closet is completely changed. Hutch is different and bedroom slide is deeper giving more floor space. THS is carpetless, even under couch/sofa. Shelf next to master bed is gone, due to the pocket door for the bathroom
I'll have to get some updated footage. TY Lisa :)
Would love to see reviews of just toyhaulers and full time toyhaulers as well. My personal wants are 1.5 bathroom with a good size main bathroom (lg. shower). Good kitchen storage.
Thank you Josh for your informative reviews!
Thanks for the idea! More to come I'm sure Shelly :)
we have a momentum 353G and they make a great unit! 2years and over 60nights... the think things through and quality is better then others... great review thanks Josh!
THANK YOU for sharing actual ownership experience, Joe! 60 nights is quite a bit! Have you taken some long trips? Had any significant hiccups, or has it been mostly smooth sailing?
We looked hard at the Grand Design 397THS. The lack of a 12V fridge and the minimalistic solar option (300W panel, 2000W inverter) are deal breakers. Would love to see you review the similar Alliance Valor 43V13!
Several of our stores in my travel schedule are Alliance outlets. They're without a doubt a priority target for coverage!! :)
@@JoshtheRVNerd Hope you can find one with ALL the bells and whistles! Keep up the great work! Being an informed consumer is good for the dealer and the buyer 😁
That thing is Massive
It's one of the largest I've ever personally seen
You're going to have "sweet dreams" about that yellow wall.,🤣😹😅
Really.. cannot.. describe... how much I dislike that wall LOL :)
Really like seeing a toy hauler rv with an rv interior. Seems like they are all utilitarian. This one is much to big for my truck but it gives me hope that there are others with great living areas too. BTW with all those videos in one day maybe you should get Cousin Ricky to lend a hand. At least he could have climbed up on the roof and kept you out of the tanning light. 🤣😂
That good for nothin' Cousin Ricky lol
4 awnings. You forgot the rear patio awning.
You're correct. I realized that only later!
Well I just found my retirement home that thing is AWESOME GREAT JOB Josh
Nice pick. You're going to roll in style :)
I would want a regular door to block out the back toy hauler section. I wouldn't want to see it from the living room. It is a big NO No to me. Not a deal breaker because if I could afford this rig, I could afford a new door. I love everything else about it. Dreaming here. The yellow wall did not add anything. LOL
At least blocking off the window for that door is a fairly easy thing to do -- and do NICELY as well!
@@JoshtheRVNerd Yep. I would love to have the money for something like this, plus the truck to go with it. LOL
I enjoy looking at them. Gathering ideas. We had a Cardinal 5th Wheel from Forest River for 5 years.
At least I think it was from Forest River. We loved it. Sadly we never really got to travel other than moving it within a few mile radius.
We were planning on traveling, when Danny got a job at the park where he had always wanted to work.
Long story short, 15 years later:
We are living on state owned land across from the park. It's a preserve.
We plan on traveling in an RV when he finally retires. Soon, I hope.
We love to video trains.
Josh, Don't feel like you have to answer everything I write. LOL
@@SarahsAtticOfTreasures what if I WANT to answer everything you write? Lol
@@JoshtheRVNerd I giggled. Then go for it. I will always answer back. It might take awhile....internet is slow.
@@JoshtheRVNerd Josh, You just made my day. Thanks.
Yeah, if we had an F450 and won the lottery we would definitely be rockin' this monster! We've looked at Momentums and daydreamed several times. (edit: for folks who haven't seen them, check out Chad and Tara on the UA-cam channel Changing Lanes to see how they love their Momentum!)
Thanks for taking the time to show the underbed storage, all the storage with the doors and drawers open, and all the little things you do that other reviewers don't bother doing. That's what sets your reviews apart from the rest! What sets you apart from the rest, is your sense of humor, of course! We're always thankful that our Uncle Josh is looking out for us.
I've mentioned several times before that we have our hearts set on an Imagine 3100RD, but after listening to your wisdom on the differences between travel trailers and fifth wheels when we intend to full time, your video on the Reflection 341RDS has that floorplan calling to us now. All the benefits of a fifth wheel with the floorplan we fell in love with.
Guessing you saw my walk-thru of that 341 recently? bit.ly/3hKlcbB if you haven't!
@@JoshtheRVNerd Yep. Your points on the "dinette" table were well taken. With that table we wouldn't have to take out a couch to create a computer desk and, with the way that table would allow access to the back of the table, it would allow a dual monitor stand to clamp on the back to fit my pair of 27" gaming monitors AND run cords up behind the desk. Neither of those are possible with the desks built in to any floor plan we've seen. I'm thinking that I could also build a cage or bracket for the tower/case into the cabinet beside/under the table too.
That thing is humungo!
lol yeah. It's a lot of things. A tiny ultralite is not one of those things :)
So I’m guessing my six cylinder pick up MIGHT struggle to tow this?
All seriousness though - what would tow this?
Dually minimum for sure
Your upbeat energy is great. Been watching a few months now as we approach decision time. Useful info in charming presentation. 👍
Welcome aboard! Thanks for hanging out with us :)
What sort of things are you seeking?
@@JoshtheRVNerd getting a 3500 dually in may or june. Looking like a triple axel toy hauler in the fall.
I like that fifth wheel
What do you enjoy about it, Heather?
It has a washer and dryer hookup and it has a lot of space
I love the kitchen and small living area with the theater seating, the TV and fireplace and the chairs and table but the $160,000 MSRP scared the crap out me😳😳😳
Yeah these are a lot of things. "Having an entry level budget" is not among them
Alliance Rv's have 12 volt fridges, so they are available.
Not in the size for the spaces here. Paradigm modes for example have the same residential and 2-way fridges available on these larger grand designs
Reflection has a larger 12v fridge unit but it’s still not as large as these
Holy crap have those jumped up in price since I looked at that model last time!!
Yeah unfortunately most things have :(
Would go near a momentum, they are paper-thin you can peel the rear back panel off with your bare hands and im 100% serious.
On the panel in the garage, what is the scare button? It made me laugh.
I think it’s the exterior lighting but I would need to recheck that. I see SO many rvs.. it all blends man
Thanks for the video, looking forward to more toy haulers like this in upcoming videos.
FYI: This is an early 2022 model, the floor plan pic you put up in the beginning is the current 2022 layout which doesn’t match the layout in the video.
Correct on the early vs late. NORMALLY I wouldn't have done an "early" model like that but I didn't catch the differences initially until I was already 2 times zones away and back home. I didn't want throw away the footage after I had already put in the effort
Thank you for pointing that out BTW
Love your videos and the wacky and practical way you look at things. Would love to see your reaction to the momentum 353 or 393 G they are the same type of floor plan with different sized garage’s it’s definitely a different way of doing things.
I really hope to get my hands on more of these. I have a trip coming up soonish to another GD-carrying dealership and hope to get a few more things recorded
I need this in my life!
Alright there as much as this rig costs it's lacking something , can you take a wild guess ?? Yeah the first COMMODE room not good . Also all the counter tops the edges should be rounded off & cabinets to , the kitchen sink no go & all the faucets something not blending in .
Apologies -- GD has a policy preventing dealers from publishing anything but MSRP basically. So I don't have a good feel for what they run (especially since my home store doesn't have GD on hand so I dont see them as often).
No rooftop jacuzzi!? :-O Deal breaker :-(
I know, right?
Josh: With a garage of 13’6” and a width of 8’, I could park a scamp13 trailer in the back of this trailer. Think of it as a “nesting doll” trailer in trailer first in the RV industry Bish orignal arrangement. 😂🤣😂🤣 Just being silly. But it’s a nice destination rig for someone. .Respectfully W.S.
When Rockwood first came out with their little 12-series boxdrops I got some help and was about to load one into the back of a Fuzion toy hauler we had on the grounds.
Then the big boss rolled up in his truck and asked "What... is going on here?"
And that was the end of our adventure.
Nice rig,maybe someday...I'm happy with my Grey Wolf toy hauler for now, I gotta say though I don't understand why a high end company like this uses those cheap tie downs?if i where in the market right now that would probably be a deal bleaker,other then that I like it!
I like Fuzion's tie downs in their floors. Being able to use multiple straps on the same tie down without fighting for space is smart
Good heavens, that is one heck of a rig!!! And so far out of my realm of reality it's almost laughable. Regardless, great job as usual Josh!
lol I get it. Sometimes it's fun to see how the other half lives :)
Phalanges’ Fryer
Ooh.. getting scientifical with it now :)
Other than pulling that beast, it would be sweet.
Man. Facts. It'd be a great one to just have parked somewhere though!
I like it. Great toy hauler! Nice interior. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
I’d like to see the momentum bumper pull toy haulers please!
I have one here: bit.ly/3JAYuyy and will be getting more in time
Love this rig. Does Momentum have an option for an outdoor kitchen by the ramp door hinge at the back of the physical trailer?
I was going to make a joke about half ton towablity, but you cut that out, so I guess the new Ford Maverick, Honda Ridgeline, or Hyundai Santa Cruz shouldn't either....
Okay now a true serious question, because it's so big and it requires a big truck to tow it, are there any specialized license restrictions or requirements?
If I were to change anything, besides the shade in the main door, privacy wall from garage, and a door for the garage bathroom shelves, that you mentioned. For the love of God, would somebody please make bigger (like small platforms) ladder rungs for the loft and happy jack beds. Those rungs are so small that they hurt my feet. Another thing, not on just this, but almost every towable RV, the glossy front exterior wall looks great, but towing at night or dusk and dawn, the taillights of the towing vehicle glare and reflect. It really annoys me. I use my mirrors quite a bit more, but I'm constantly fighting the glare of the truck's taillight glare off my trailer.
That hinging camp kitchen thing is actually patented by Jayco so I don't foresee other brands using it (because they don't want to pay for the royalties).
Regarding licensing: Most states require no special licensing for big fifth wheels or large Class A motorhomes. Some may have some basic license endorsements that aren't difficult to obtain.
No salesman talk about the garage door opening height . Some of us looked big for toy haulers have bigger toys.
That is something that is pretty standardized on these bigger models since the chassis supplier is consistent that way. Our team members are always happy to get additional measurements for clients by request any time in return for the fair opportunity to earn their business
I do not like the compact washer dryer in the master.
Would like to see it in the garage.
The window behind the cook top is not good.
Cleaning those mini blinds after every meal would get old.
Thanks for sharing David. Appreciate the suggestions for things like alternate locations for the W/D rather than just "I don't like it."
Knowing how it could be improved is super handy
I would like to see that Big Horn Camper behind you 💙
I'll have to work to get a few of those. Sadly didn't get an opportunity on that trip. I actually checked the VIN. It's a 2022. But I discovered shortly after there've been some updates as you've described. Sadly I had already captured all this footage and didn't have the updated copy available.
Splarm Josh, really? (LOL) I was leaning towards hybrid Farm kitchen sink but I'm admittedly lame.
lol i forgot about the SPLARM sink
In fairness.. not the prettiest name I've come up with..
@@JoshtheRVNerd I'm still chuckling, that was funny.
Make videos for truck campers!!!!
I have 6-8 or so coming up over the next few weeks!

Q: Do you ever think they’ll be a 12v Residential fridge❓I know there are some larger ones, but Residential❓🤔💭🧐
* I literally paused & asked this before listening to your entire statement❗️🤦🏽♂️
you and I always think along similar lines man
And I appreciate your regular visits so much. Truly
@@JoshtheRVNerd // “Why Thank You” ~ in my Steve Martin voice from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels when he asked if he could go to the bathroom (while sitting at the dinner table), then proceeded to make a face of relief as he relieved himself whole still sitting at the table… 💦 😆🤣😂😅
@@SamuelJMartinIII What's funny? I read it in that voice without the explanation. For real.
Great to see you in slc! Would you recommend something like this for a full time family of 7? Or would a midbunk work also? I like that this has so many ac units
Provided the sleeping setup/storage works here, then this could work well for a big family. I've seen it done both ways. The mid-bunk makes the most sense by default I think
I watched another video on this model, and I think you are actually in a 2021 model. The 2022, the tall skinny window in the kitchen is gone and the slide is wider. The Washer/Dryer are in the middle of the nose instead of on the door side. And the main Bathroom, the vanity is on the other side of the wall and there is a door between the bedroom and the bathroom. Among other changes. Just FYI.
I checked the VIN. It's a 2022. But I discovered shortly after there've been some updates as you've described. Sadly I had already captured all this footage and didn't have the updated copy available.
@@JoshtheRVNerd I suppose they don't hold too close to a model "year" if that's the case. That being said, I wish they had left the bathroom alone: I am not a fan of the double bathroom doors, especially when it puts the toilet closer to the bedroom...
We look forward to when you get to review the updated version.
Hey Josh it would be awesome if you could share your thoughts about a Grand design imagine XLS 24 MPR… thanks in advance!
I haven't had a chance to get my hands on that model specifically YET but what I've seen of imagines so far is some pretty excellent fit and finish with a great focus on storage wherever possible. I love how they do their queen bedrooms!!
It’s beautiful
Could they put 2 10 cubit foot 12 volts side by side there?
Not quite enough space but I've asked different builders to do that. I think Outback made one or two like that..
Hey Josh, if you come across one could you do a video o the grand design 351ms?
I'll watch for it!
I love your vids but ya dropped the ball...probally already in comments but you did a walkthrough of a 397th Not the THS. We got excited for your new video because we have a 2022 on order (just out of paint) But this rig dosent match the floorplan you put up.... Oh well we will be waiting for a new vid unless we get our rig first!
Waiting for someone to ask if they can pull this with a 3/4ton 😂😂😂
or a FORD FREAKING RANGER lolol :)
@@JoshtheRVNerd don’t diss the Ford FREAKING Ranger !! 🤣
@@MrJamesLuz :)
Man, two bathrooms is cool, but imagine how large the living room would be if they didn’t put that bathroom there! My issue with most toy hauler floor plans is that they insist on squeezing in a second bath. A waste of space in my opinion.
I'm actually quite impressed with the living room. It's not every day you find a FULL dinette AND sofa super slide in a toy hauler but I definitely get what you're saying. That kitchen could also be a super slide and really open stuff up
Any idea how long from order to pick up?
Apologies Diane my job doesn't encounter lead times very frequently so I don't have a good feel for that. I'd have to direct you to a member of our team at bit.ly/3A7CXKb
I was ready to call in and buy it until we saw that see through door! While we have a 1/2 ton, I put hvy duty shocks on it so, we're good for a unit like this!
lol you had me in the first half I'm not going to lie :)
Wouldn’t it be cheaper to attach a chassis to your home and pull it on the road?? 😏
...maybe actually lol
IS THIS HALF-TON TOWABLE??
hahahaha
I'm just here for the jokes.
That’s a relief because that’s all that I got 😅
Can I tow it with my shortbed F150? 😁
lol there's always that ONE person :)
Just take out the passenger seat to free up the weight and you’ll be fine 😂
No sorry
@@JoshtheRVNerd and of course it's me :) This is a beautiful rig, but I'd wager it's even a bit too big for the F350 I just ordered (single rear, 7.3L gas, long bed). Sure, it'd handle the weights empty without a problem, but start adding to it and we're in a whole other league. This is the updated rig that a few youtubers have, and all of them handle it with dually diesels for good reason. As always, an excellent video!
@@krisbeaver2901 This is dually minimum i'd say. A 450 frankly would be a good pairing. She's a biggin
Just too Big....I can't see why anyone needs to take their Whole House Camping!
For some folks things like this *are* their whole house
near perfect..... bed up top in back blocking a/c not good, bed be up during the day, all it is doing is freezing the mattress. at night when bed may be down less likely to need it, but i would just get rid of that bed anyway most likely, more than enough other places to sleep. bunk with ladder would probably just be storage anyway for me. far as stereo goes, new one on me, i just assumed all of them had option for inside outside both at least... even if not seperate volumes, any 70s stereo had speakers A and B or both... very simple, i can build a speaker switcher in 5 minutes if had the parts sitting here for under 5 bucks, or just buy one for 10 or 20 ... radio shack was one of my favorite stores as a kid in early 80s. i think simple option would be just seperate stereos for inside or out... especially since will want seperate things on at seperate volumes most of the time anyway... tv with super bowl outside while music and game on silent inside or such..... and if want same music on both systems, linking them blue tooth is perfectly doable so that they act as one on music control, but seperate volume controls regardless (i have a pair of speakers that prove this, use them camping in boonies) ..... 2nd full bathroom excellent. only thing is that bunk up there blocking the a/c during the day, that would bug the hell out of me both during the day when trying to keep room cool, and having to get in to that all day frozen bed when drop it down at night.... just get rid of it, give a bit more roof clearence anyway.... or make a removable option, some will want it just having the a/c on it 6 inches away all day is rediculous....... i may want to listen to black sabbath on inside stereo while playing bigfoot hunter video game with surround sound on outside tv while out there at mount shasta where people disappear and such with my back to the forest. 2 seperate blue tooth enabled stereos which can just link music selections to each other when needed is by far cheaper than building and wiring a single system with an ass load of inputs and varialbe selections. each one can be set up for whatever level of power you want individually... have 5000 watts powering fender stacks outside if want to. while the girl quietly watches law and order inside. and yes i do know a campground where 5000 watts of music coming off your rv would be acceptable, and need toys with you as well.... burning man.
I want to see you blasting a concert off the patio deck of your RV. Use the happi jac lift as a drum riser lol :)
you spelled toilet wrong
All these toy haulers are built the same way junk . Buy one and it will be in the shop more times then camping. If you really like a toy hauler look at Lux trailers. Remember you get what you pay for.
Cool! Who the heck buys these things in these times?! Some will see this big guy and ask themselves why they haven't pulled the trigger on that tiny TT they've been eyeing...... I still say the economic/energy crises doomsday is coming and your dad is a genius ;)
There's actually an interesting trend of people leaving the housing market to full time RV recently
@@JoshtheRVNerd i agree
okay who misspelled toilet?? interns...
No sure but the good news is they did print enough copies of that sign to fill the entire display.
Is she 1/2 ton towable lmao
lol there's always one person :)
Buyer beware of Grand design; check their roofs; their getting multiple complaints of their roofs not being fully glued down, Look it up your self; this trailer looks very cheaply made IJS
I always appreciate good and fair info. I've heard of this a few times. Do you have a link or anything we could reference?
