@OutsidebySide we have a 2022 22 MLE. We put 17000 km on it last year and no issues other than some road rash even with "Rockguard" extra mud flaps. We have the same wee complaints about the lighting, non- lighting AND a dumb spot for AC power under the dinette seat.

Nice to see you two again! Daves looking good. Guess he's doing better? Nice camper! I've researched that one and don't like the bath. I'm used to a full rear bath with plenty of room for changing. Can you cut out the shelf under the sink to put a trash can there? Yeah, I have my fridge plugged in now (Fri) for leaving on Sunday. Oh, I think in my last post I was trying an experiment with hooking up a portable power bank to run the electric for the fridge to stay cold while traveling. It works! (need a bigger power bank)

I think we are like you folks. We (me and Bill) are starting our 5th season with our Winnebago Mini Drop. It's not a couple's trailer, I think it's a one-person trailer. I wouldn't even add a dog. Small cat maybe. We've been looking at Grand Design and this was one of them. I like the size 22 feet. I don't want to jump to 25 feet. Keep it simple. No more than what we need. I don't need to square dance in the kitchen, but dancing cheek to cheek is nice. Bill wants the 25-footer that has a DOOR across the bedroom. I like the curtain. It helps to keep the weight of the RV down, less wood, and I want to make a pretty colorful curtain. I do not like slides. We're never had one, so we've avoided all the hassles (breakdowns) that I heard about. I need a pantry so I can stop digging through overhead cabinets that I can't reach. So I've enjoyed watching this video since you are not screamers like so many videos from sales people do. One more thing: Your map needs to show you've been up here on the right coast. Our map is a little less than yours although we have been as far as Yellowstone and Grand Teton in our Winnie from here in New Hampshire. What a trip that was!! . Maybe after retirement we'll go....... Just read some other reviews. Heard there is illness in the family. Prayers coming your way for full recovery. Keep the faith.

Funny that I just came acroos this video. We just rented this exact TT for the long 4th July weekend. We are very long time tent campers and want to dip our toes into the RV world. By renting we were able to access our wants and needs without a long commitment 3 of us for 4 days 3 nights was tight but it was a great learning experience. Ultimately I think between 26 and 28 foot with a slide out will keep us in our wheel house of space, towability and price range. I will say this little Pioneer would have been a castle to me when i used to hunt. Something I will do again in the future. You pointed out many dislikes and should've, could'ves but every thing mentioned would've driven the cost up and that is not what this camper is.

This seems like a really great floor plan for a couple. I’ve only viewed this camper online and RU-vid. If I have a 2023/2024 F150 5.0 V8, how would this tow or would I need more like a F250? Would a weight distribution hitch and sway control be mandatory with the F150 V8? Thanks
@OutsidebySide
@OutsidebySide 15 дней назад
@leader674 We have had no problems towing this with our F150. We researched the safety of this model for years to make sure it was not at capacity weight wise.
