We survived our first weekend of camping and it was a mixed bad of good things and some "ok" things. Nothing bad, it was just kind of noisy at the camp ground we were at. I think we're going to look for more "quieter" spots.
First off, I will say that I don't know why anybody would buy any other camper. I'm a little concerned about the quality of the construction, but I think this may just be TT world, which I'm just getting used to.
The only really dumb thing we did was fill up the gray tank with another day to go. So, all teeth brushing was outside and no washing of dishes. LOL
In the two days were were there, we used just about every gadget and feature on the trailer.
Outside kitchen: Perfect for bacon in the morning. Outside fridge, awesome. I also thought that I would not like how the door does not swing all the way up, because I think it will "brown" over the years from the cooking, but I now love it because it keeps debris from falling in whatever you are cooking.
Outside shower: Perfect for hosing off dirty kids and we washed the dog with it after he got muddy.
Fine to tow with a 1/2 ton pick up truck. I won't win any races, but it performed just fine.
The Blue Ox Sway Pro and the Yakonsha P3 are the perfect combo.
LOVE the LED lighting on the awning.
Outside speakers, could be a little louder, but it was great to have them.
U-shaped dinette, perfect. Our family of 5 fit around it nicely.
32" TV nice to watch a movie and let the kids simmer down at night.
A little wobbly, I may look into braces for this thing.
The heat in the morning was HOT and the A/C was COLD (but we were in shade, not direct sunlight).
As for the noise outside, we just turned on the fan and it drowned out any noise and we all slept great.
Power tongue...awesome.
Emptying the black tank was not as bad as I was thinking it was going to be. Actually kind of no big deal.
The kids played outside a LOT. No real complaining about the lack of video games and my son can throw a frisbee like a champ. Who knew? We had a good time and looking forward to our next adventure.
Just overall a really great experience. We needed one more 2x4 to level the trailer perfectly, but oh well. You live and learn.
