2017 Stealth WA2916

[2BLAZERS]

Nothing like bringing home a new baby over the weekend.




We had the axle flip done and don't think I'll ever have to worry about scraping anything off the trailer.
2 feet of rear stabilizer clearance


and 16 inches of clearance for the lowest thing, the drains.


Heading out this week with it, can't wait. We did try everything out at the house and I think the only thing not working right is the DVDs cut shortly after 1 minute.

We still have the truck camper for the smaller campgrounds and quick trips.

Looks like everything is coming together to pickup our new to us 2014 Stealth AK2612G. The local dealer will take the S & S in trade. I will toss up pics when everything is for real and parked at the house.

Looks very nice, and one of the ones we are seriously considering. May I ask, which dealer did you use, and would you recommend them? Forest River lists 2 Stealth dealers in WA, Baydos Trailer Sales

and

I-5 Uhlmann RV

I shopped pretty hard at both Power RV near Salem, OR. And ended up buying from Curtis Trailers in Portland. Both places treated us well was just a matter of the best price and Power RV just had one of what we wanted with options we did not want. If your in the NW don't forget to call the Portland dealers or even Spokane and Boise, ID area.....you can save thousands and get exactly what you want.

The SA2515 at Curtis looks nice, and we really like the bed being crossways instead of N/S. Powers didn't have one we wanted. I am close to Seattle, Baydos in Fife has several models, but I am thinking they will be very proud of them.

If you want to make a trip best prices are in Ca. Probably by several thousand dollars.

There are at least two more, might be worth checking. I've never purchased from either, but have been on both lots and never left with a slimy feeling from the sales guys.

A couple DESIGN things we've found:

1. All the roof vents are nice, but I can only reach two of them on my tippy toes. My wife can't reach any of them.
2. Bathroom fan is a button in the roof vent, I can barely reach it, my wife can't.
3. Fresh city water hookup is right above the hot water heater. angle the hose correctly so it doesn't get to hot.
4. The living area lights are all on one switch by the rear door. Should have a switch by the bedroom too. Almost stepped on the dog once already.
5. Fresh water fill tank and black tank flush attachments are on the passenger side/curb side which seems wrong to me. Everything should be on the same side.
6. Hot water in the shower ran out very quickly even for this bald guy.
7. Water pressure using the onboard pump and battery power is very weak.
8. I'd give up some bathroom/kitchen/living area to get a real queen bed not the short one provided. We might just do it anyways.

Just for those interested. Still love the trailer.

This is what it looks like with the slide in. You can use the bathroom and get to the fridge with the slide in.



Here is the fridge open with the slide in.



You could even use the sink and stove with the slide in. But good look getting anything out of the pantry cabinet.

On our way to Montana, camped at BumbleBee Campground in ID.



Starting to get use to the size of the trailer. We are now about 5 feet longer than our TC and Enclosed trailer combo.

How does your dually pull it?

The truck pulls it like a dream. This is only 1/3 its towing capacity. We just went to Plain, MT for family reunion and I could run as fast as we wanted up hill.

1150 miles 136.67 gallons equals 8.4 mpg. Ha ha.

About the only thing I need to do is get more weight on the front axle from the weight distribution hitch. Will adjust more for next weeks trip to Medford, OR to camp.

Congrats! That's an awesome TH.

Absolutely love your toyhauler. We are East Coast. I searched for this RV to no avail when buying a new one. Sweet!

We ended up with this camper. One thing we did require tho is our 1 kid has to have a place to sleep when we stop for our 4-5 hr overnight stops on longer trips. with golf car and more in it, we can put the small slide out and the couch converts to bed for her. In the Steath this option couldn't happen. (It is just the way we are camping at this point and a bed for her was needed on overnight stops) so we ended up with the T29.

All the same reasons, we just sold our 2014 5th wheel 40 ft monster toyhauler because we wanted more box room, about 4K less in tow weight, less length to fit places (34 total tongue to rear), hubby wanted the bed of his truck back 🙂

I am so glad you are thrilled with your RV. That Stealth caught my eye for sure and I am happy to know you have one and love it LOL

this is our floorplan. we love it.
