If you get a chance, walk in a Vibe. These are a nice place to be. I think the color scheme is really nice inside and out. The interiors borderline in feeling luxurious. No, they aren't a Brinkley or an Ember or a Rockwood Signature etc.....but they aren't trying to be. They just feel nice and bright, airy and modern. I just like what they've done with these things
We have had ours through a brutal winter, -10 degrees, and hot Kansas summer, +100, and we just love this rig. Love the TV’s but they are not Smart TV’s. Tows amazing but you will need a 3/4 ton. Love love love this rv
Love this video Josh. Another beautiful RV. I love the room for the stackable washer and dryer. You have done a great job with this video. You are great.
A very likable RV unit. The camp side kitchen slider was a bit of a surprise, and after dwelling on it a bit, I kinda like it. But I would lose the camp side entenrtainment center and restore that space to the inside. And enlarge the kitchen window. I would also move the drawers on the camp side wall into the closet above the docking center. I would be willing to move the front storage to the front or eliminate it.
Holy Cow Josh! What a TT! I will agree with you, I would use this one as a park model. Definitely a beautiful camper! Thank you Josh! Oh we’ve called a dishwasher a microwave before! 😂
Ok i think im falling in love! The step up shower might be a problem as i have lower leg issues. It does havw q few hickups but so does every camper i've seen.
I dont like the outdoor entertaiment ctr. Id much prefer to sit inside in the bug, neighbor, stranger free zone. So id proably never use that TV, i hadnt noticed is there a TV in the bedroom? And 8 wouls put a stackabale washer/dryer combo in there, and sincw its only me a 4" dollar store fart fan is fine. Love the second fridge for mainly drinks freeing up space in the big fridge for everything else.
Not specific to this RV but why is the price for a specific 5th wheel on Bish’s web site $60,000 but when I email using the Lowest Price tab I get a price of $79,000. Also the hitch weight is equal to the max payload of my truck and I asked if that’s not going to be enough truck and was told no it will be fine (in a text message from Bish’s)
Great video, BUT...for a nearly 40' trailer I am disappointed in the size of the oven and refrigerator. Something other than kiddie size would have been much better. Shower should have been bigger, also. Too many disappointments in this one for consideration.
Most of their models are smaller so they don’t put larger appliances in the rare bigger unit they make I’m not saying that justifies anything or fixes the problem. Your point is valid Simply sharing the “why” behind the “what”
I so want to challenge you to Mario Kart! 🚗 Oh, and the trailer is pretty cool. There are some things I love, and a few things I don't care for. Toe kicks make a huge difference in how your back feels after working around the kitchen. So, that would call it a deal-breaker, unless the camper comes with a free chiropractor 😁
I have a 2024 vibe 34xl and I love it. Only difference is my dining room table is fixed in the dine position and does not move. I wonder why I didn't get that option in mine 🤔 One good thing is I noticed my kitchen window is larger than this unit. It's wider going clear across the stove and I believe my bedroom window is a little bigger. Does it boil down to what that have on hand at the time of production of the trailer? Thanks for the vid! Btw, thanks for showing me my thermostat can double as a ball cap hanger 😂
Funny that you mentioned the La Crosse line... I have been hoping you would review their 3411RK model. It really hit all the marks for me and the wife but we really wanted to get the input of a true industry professional and "looker atter" legend.
Love this layout! Wish the kitchen could flip to the other side to have all the windows on campsite side. Skip the big entertainment outside. Small frig is good enough. Oh, double sink would be great too.
Hello Uncle Josh, you are looking younger each time that I see you, good for you, just keep doing whatever you're doing, it's looking good on you! 😊 I LOVE the windows in the bedroom and on the drivers side. I LOVE the 2 tvs also. I don't think that you showed us the bathroom Uncle Josh, if you did, my apologies. Does this beauty come with "Endurance" tires? This is nice Uncle Josh, thank you for sharing this Winner! Take care Uncle Josh, you're a KEEPER! ❤ 😊😇🤑🤠
Wow! Love the huge open living room! Love all of the windows and door side windows. Love the huge kitchen. Like all of the cabinets in the kitchen. Like that kitchen table wish more rv tables can do different stuff. Like the big tv in side. Like the oven. Like the bathroom. Like the bed slide. Like all of the storage in the bedroom. Like the desk. Wish all Rvs hand that. Have a good day josh!
I was going to point out that the small fridge looks like a booze fridge lol Overall, I like it. It is LONG and far too much for a future solo camper. I like the table and the desk space A LOT!! Definitely not for everyone, but this has some excellent features. The walk in closet and the storage space! Good stuff!
My 8.1L 2500HD with Allison Transmission and Towing package Chevy would pull this up mountains and I wouldn't even know it was behind me. I like this coach, and the sale price seems fair too. (...at the time of this comment) BTW Josh let me for the peeps that might not know express WHY the speakers are BETTER up high in the sky. WHEN you have the awning extended, it works VERY well as an audio/re-directional buffer and the sound gets directed downward depending on the awning's angle etc. it's actually quite nice as you can run the volume lower than you would need to if they were at a lower location, and your camping neighbors will thank you;) Cheers!
@@JoshtheRVNerd Yup total use preference. so many of us wouldn't sit out under the elements without using our awning IF we were listening to music and hangin' out at the picnic table. plus the lower speakers can get in the way of tables, chairs, etc. I get both sides etc.
@@ronisom1714 Not really. Already pulled a Hitchhiker NuWa 35 1/2' Fifth Wheel with a 2,700LB hitch weight fully loaded all over the mountains of Colorado and Wyoming that's heavier than this thing by a couple tons at least. I usually give opinions on past or present personal experience. Cheers!
@@ronisom1714 Gas engine has worked so much better than any diesel ever could on this usage case. PLENTY of torque, PLENTY of horse power, less maintenance, better cold starts, such cheaper fuel, MUCH cheaper maintenance etc. I could go on, but most will get the point.
not my kind of trailer, but if i was going to park it and live in it, hell yes, very nice, basically a destination trailer that is far easier to move if want to, i would totally use it for that function and travel in something else..... would be good for those gate guards out in middle of nowhere for example. or maybe the snowbird.... comment on people being gamers mostly now, so very true, i used to work in a place where EVERYONE in my department for the most part, played one certain game, called everquest, not only us, but people from all the other casinos in the area in our department played as well, we all played on the same server...... was playing one night, one of my bosses sent me a message in the game asking me if i could come in an hour early the next day lol...... be standing there and a cocktail waitress from work come running by with monsters chasing her...... things like that happened constantly.
What’s going throw my head is whether they could have been a way to move the washer dryer prep to the front closet and rearranged the bathroom so the toilet could be enclosed in some way. I understand that would get in the way of watching the TV, but that’s what phones are for.
Nice, interesting, spacious. In the Bathroom if not using the space as washer/dryer then def a linen/utility/storage closet. For me the latter. Everything else is fine as long as your setup is good for non campsite/entry side window views. Great video as always, love the content. PS…. I’d love to see a review of the new 2025 Vibe 3400SB.
Love the color scheme of gray and white! Then why those UGLY brown sofa and theater seats?!? Navy would be so much better. Even black (although I wouldn’t care for that.). Just my .02 worth.
With all that pantry and drawer space it would be nice if they put a dishwasher in the island, it's probably not hard to retrofit. It annoys me when RV manufacturers treat RV's like Toyotas, it does not have to be of premium pedigree to have a simple appliance that most people would expect if they rented an apartment. A beer fridge and a dishwasher would keep this guy happy! Storage in general is fantastic, it was disappointing to see that the CC is so low, larger axels or another axel would make a lot of difference. Having a bathroom/mid unit WD hookup is smart, the additional weight won't affect the hitch weight as badly than if they were in the FWD closet. Plenty of fridge space between the two, big TV's, plenty of desk or work space between the desk table and the multi function table. Plenty of comfortable living space. I would be very comfortable, I think it appeals to middle aged men for the most part, especially if it had a dishwasher in it that did not talk. All in all I see this as more of a destination trailer, an awesome unit for someone who has some vacation or retirement property that it is likely to live at most of the time.
Professor 🧑🏫 Nerd 🤓? This nerdy 🤓 student has a question 🙋? What is the weight limit of the big slide? That would make for a great spot to place a second spare tire 🛞.
Nice camper. Just wish it was a few feet longer. 😂 I like the vibe the vibes put out. Very nice camper. I agree they should have some additional shelves or hanging rod for the bathroom closet.
Can someone explain why you cant use (stand,walk,sit) the slides when their in, on a camper/trailer but you can use the slides in a mobile rv, when their not extended out? How are the slides different?
Explanation here m.ua-cam.com/video/itGeKF6yu1g/v-deo.html The difference is support or lack thereof under the slide and the actual mechanism used They’re not the same
The floor plan looks great to me! I could knit pick a tad though. An option for a propane range and oven would sell the Mrs on it as she loves our gas range and oven we currently use. Also, an option to go with fabric upholstery on the sofas would be convenient, though the leather isn't an absolute deal breaker.
Dropped the ball IMO. The kitchen window could have been bigger and if they got rid of the outside entertainment center and put the inside TV on a televator, they could have another window on the camp side. Two big windows in the kitchen would have been nice. The y could cut the tongue weight some to if they went with N-S bed and a closet slide. I see the walk-in front closet as a waste of space unless you add shelving or stackable storage on the floor.
Love the floorplan as equipped with theater seating, a sofa sleeper, a TV, a table and chairs, a 3 burner cooktop with an oven, a porcelain toilet and a shower door💥💥just a Maxxair bathroom fan, a true queen bed, a ladder and some GoodYear tires from👍👍👍
Being in rv sales I think it would be a good seller mainly due to it has washer dryer prep in a travel trailer
I'm vibing with this Vibe. The cargo is skinny, but this would be great to put on a vacation lot.
Yeah that’s kinda what I think. Destination use
Love the overall layout, but not the toe stubber edge in the kitchen. Would drive me and the wife crazy.
If you get a chance, walk in a Vibe. These are a nice place to be.
I think the color scheme is really nice inside and out. The interiors borderline in feeling luxurious.

As an officer of the Pop Singer Police, I do happen to know that Dua Lipa is levitating. 😂I do like this camper though!
lol I always wonder if people have a clue what i'm talking about
😂😂
Given the size of the closest I would definitely trade all the bedroom drawers for a second entry.
Ty
Toe Stubber is deal breaker and in a rig like this, 1100lb CCC is a HARD NO!
fair. ty
can you check out forrest river Wildcat 248RKX.
its a west coast unit but would like the Nerd review!

My 8 year old nephew challenged me to MarioKart. He was so sad. Hahahahahahaha!!

Not specific to this RV but why is the price for a specific 5th wheel on Bish’s web site $60,000 but when I email using the Lowest Price tab I get a price of $79,000. Also the hitch weight is equal to the max payload of my truck and I asked if that’s not going to be enough truck and was told no it will be fine (in a text message from Bish’s)
If a unit displays a lower price than is emailed, then SOMETHING was typed in error. Still a human element the initial data entry

Let’s do it
Also, thanks for bringing up that merchandise. That has slipped my mind and I want some. I’m thinking maybe a good Father’s Day gift?!
The best 😆
I have a 2024 vibe 34xl and I love it. Only difference is my dining room table is fixed in the dine position and does not move.

The table is something they started doing after the 2024’s started. So some 24’s may not yet have included it
Funny that you mentioned the La Crosse line... I have been hoping you would review their 3411RK model. It really hit all the marks for me and the wife but we really wanted to get the input of a true industry professional and "looker atter" legend.
I’ll keep an eye out for one. I don’t see many of those

I do prefer camp side windows as well
Why is the battery disconnect outside⁉ It's not a race car

I love the dinette table and how it functions It's so simple and easy why has this not been done before ? Thanks Nerd
What’s funny.. it has
Year ago
Tables like that used to be fairly common. Then they vanished
What’s old is new again

Never played myself but it really blazed trails
watched a kit throw away his college full ride scholarship playing everquest
I think he's a burgerking now
@@JoshtheRVNerd I saw it break up a lot of marriages too, people hooking up and such.
What a shame. 40' long almost perfect trailer with no shower headroom or CPAP space. What are you thinking.
Do believe this one needs another axle. ~1100# payload ain't much for that much room.
You should stop smoking. It’s ruining that beautiful choir boy voice of yours.
40ft long and a short queen?!?
lol I know

can you answer a question for me , Why does the the Cherokee 242TR have 5187lbs of cargo caring capacity ?
Afraid I can’t. They just went crazy on the running gear
Professor 🧑🏫 Nerd 🤓? This nerdy 🤓 student has a question 🙋? What is the weight limit of the big slide? That would make for a great spot to place a second spare tire 🛞.
Apologies I’ve never had a mfg provide a slide weight rating. Basically you don’t want to use them for cargo beyond the built in spaces a mfg provides
Nice camper. Just wish it was a few feet longer.
😂
I like the vibe the vibes put out. Very nice camper. I agree they should have some additional shelves or hanging rod for the bathroom closet.
Longer 😆
Hi, Sir Nerd, are the panoramic windows on the camp side? If they are not, why would you wanna have windows that just look at your neighbor?
Most windows on drivers side. The layout just can’t be directly flipped
I just purchased the 2024 Vibe 28RL. Awaiting delivery
Ooh congrats! If my videos were helpful then would you mind dropping me a quick review at g.page/r/CdPcitNVx2nDEAg/review by chance?

ThanksNerd!
You bet
Length? 40 feet. Cargo capacity? Half a ton. Ultimate design fail.
Yeah basically good for site use
Not bad at all
Ty!
they both nailed it (sorta) and failed it
don't ya just love the great view of the sewer hookup ?
lol

Thank you for sharing
I agree on the propane. I even like propane refrigerators. The 12 vdc fridges make a lot of sense, especially with solar.
So then a spare tire in that cargo hold is not recommended then???
Mfgs account for storage they include. Not people they didn’t on an unsupported edge of a slide
Dropped the ball IMO. The kitchen window could have been bigger and if they got rid of the outside entertainment center and put the inside TV on a televator, they could have another window on the camp side.
