The heat option in the ac is most likely so you can add a heat strip to it. I added it in a lazy daze m27 and loved that it could warm the RV up without using the noisy propane furnace on a chilly night. Plus, it was always a pain to fill the propane. It's a nice option if you have a solar setup or if you're plugged in.

@lmack72 3 года назад

We just bought our 2021 Apex Nano in May. Love it. Tows well with our Tahoe. No it's not electric. Anxious to hear more about your towing experience with the Tesla. Just for info. I discovered I wasn't putting enough tension on my anti-sway bar or on my weight distribution hitch. When I corrected those errors sway was eliminated. Great review. 27 nights and 3000 miles in 5 months and we didn't know there was storage beside the outside gas grill. I'll check that out tomorrow. Thanks.

@AllElectricFamily 3 года назад

That's Great! We were excited about all the extra storage. With our other trailer it took some dialing in of the hitch setup to reduce sway so glad you figured that out. We have owned it since March and have put roughly the same amount of miles on ours and have enjoyed it. Thanks for following along.

The previous owner had already made some modifications taking out the dinette and replacing it with a futon and changing the bunkhouse to be a single bunk on the bottom and the rest of the area was used for storage as it was a single woman who traveled alone. I'm planning on pulling mine with my 2016 frontier four-wheel drive. I have yet to take it out but I'm looking forward to adventures.

I wasn't having problems but I also was afraid of leaning to hard on it. Now, with the 1000 dollar worth of upgrades I can make it work hard without worry. Now I can pull hard up hills, keep speed more consistent... General use it never gets a water temp above 205... Giving it hell on decent inclines I can keep 65 and never see above 215-220 even on the hottest days. Trans still doesn't see above 200... Sure gas milage sucks running wide open sometimes, but now I have zero worries about my temps.

I love your video, best out there for this model. This is the one we’re considering and I have what may be kind of a dumb question but how do your kids get in and out of the bunks? I ask because the overhead height in each looks a bit tight. Has that been an issue? You also mentioned getting in them yourself. How do you prefer to get in and out as an adult?

@AllElectricFamily 3 года назад

Our kiddos are monkeys and just climb right in. We considered getting a ladder, but they haven't had an issue getting in & out, so we decided not to. It's easiest to climb in head first, but I prefer to have my head where the opening is....so I do have enough space to crawl in and turn myself around. It's tight, and I'm small (5'3") but it is doable!

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

You could take everything out of there and use it for storage. We find it convenient because if the kids are asleep inside we don't have to go inside and wake them up to get a drink if we're sitting around the campfire. It's also nice to keep the heat and smells of cooking out of the camper if you're boondocking and can't run the A/C or just don't want to run the A/C. They're pretty handy in the end!

@AllElectricFamily 2 года назад

You do loose about half of your range when towing a camper with an EV. But we've been towing campers with EVs for two and half years now and it's been working for us. We had an incident we will be documenting in an upcoming video where we were unable to get a charge, but it could have been avoided if we had planned better. It's one of those things, it will work if you want it to. If you don't want to put in a little bit of planning, it won't. So, it won't be for everyone, but it is possible.

@jehu4u 3 года назад

Love the videos, We get Delivery of our new X in June and are going to look at this trailer today! How do you find the tongue weight when loaded up, so you tend to load the weight in rear\middle? in another video you said "fully loaded" is around 4800 pounds (is that with water-tank full or just the max load the trailer was rated for?) Are you still feeling confident with the X (other than range) towing the 194bhs? We are a family of 4 and plan to use the X to tow until our cybertruck arrives. Most sites we will be at do NOT have hookups so filling the tank closer to arrival and dumping tanks may be the solution. Are there any other trailers in hindsight you would check out in a bunk style? I saw the airstream 20+% efficiency increase crazy!

@AllElectricFamily 3 года назад

You have to go to a scale to find true tongue weight. It is a good idea to load closer to the axle of the trailer but not always applicable. 4800 is what the camper could handle with the axle they have. We are still very confident with the X and towing. It’s a pretty easy experience if the hitch is setup correctly. We can’t wait for an electric truck and will be doing some videos on what those trucks could tow. When you get into double axle trailers you have a lot more options of floor plans. For the trailer of that size we still feel the 194bhs is best floor plan. Airstream was to small for that but once the trucks come out then you can get some good floor plans for a family.

Very well done trailer tour video! At 9:04 when showing the pantry, the top two shelves each have a nice bright motion sense light. Did the motion sensing lights come with the trailer or did you add them. What brand/ model lights are they?

Thank you! I did add those lights aftermarket. I’ll get a link when I get back to my computer!

Yes, the pass through door is a bit smaller than I like, but the storage itself is huge. It's a very usable space! The quick connect is directly below the outlets! Let us know if there are any other questions you need answered! We're happy to help. Thanks for watching!

Nice review. I'm about to get this model. Was curious how your Tesla is handling towing? What's your range when towing? I'm eventually getting the cyber truck and I'm curious how well electric vehicles can tow.

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

Thank you! It kills consumption, but other than that it is great at towing. But, we think the aerodynamics of the trailer have a lot to do with how much it eats your range. We are testing an Airstream in Sep. to see if that is true!

@david92xj 4 года назад

We are looking at the 208bhs because the dual axles. It's a trade off with the additional weight, but the trailer still comes in at 4,000lbs and double the cargo capacity of the single axle. Have you ever experienced a tire failure with a single axle?

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

We have not, but I'm sure it would not be pleasant. Next year we may look at upgrading our tires anyway.

@DSmith-zk8ug 3 года назад

on our previous camper (single axle) we had a flat tire. Thankfully we were still in town picking up a 'friend' and I happened to crave a McDonalds treat and happened to look over at the tire area. Brand new tires even :-( It would have been real bad IF we drove on it much farther!

We are looking at this same unit and so far we are thinking this is the one. I can’t find anywhere online what brand A/C unit it has and if it has a built in thermostat that cycles the compressor AND the fan off when the set temperature is reached. Could you help answer that question? Btw... your review was outstanding and is what made up our minds to look further at this model! Thank you!

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

It is a Dometic A/C unit. It cycles the compressor, but not the fan. 🙁 I wish it did turn the fan off! And thank you so much for the kind words!! We know how much reviews have helped us when purchasing campers, so we just hoped it would help others! Happy camping!

@lifeboy0232 4 года назад

All Electric Family thanks for the fast reply.... is the fan really loud or is it something that you kinda tune out? We are doing the same thing y’all did. We sold out 31’ TT with ducted A/C and are downsizing. My wife is worried that the noise will be loud and it would be hard to talk or watch tv with it going. I know the answer is a matter of opinion but I’m curious on what yours is having gone thru a similar situation that we are going thru as far as downsizing. Thanks!

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

Chris Miller no problem! It’s loud and we can tune it out....but there are times when it seems like it’s hard to hear over it. I do wish the A/C was better, but it wouldn’t be a deal break.

It’s probably not completely necessary, but we are glad we have a sway bar. It just makes it more comfortable.

@stonekeeper3197 4 года назад

Hi, we just picked up the same rig yet to take it out, but we downsized and loved it for the same reasons you mentioned. I’m also glad the 194 bhs has a proper tour in you tube now, so good job. I have a question and was hoping you could let me know if your rv is the same. 1) The front window over the bed has a black insert how tight is that insert to the glass? I can get my fingers in between and can actually see insulation sticking out. I’m not to impressed with that and looking at adding something to get rid of the gap. 2) When the slide is all the way out from the inside does the frame around the slide hit the rubber bumper or is there a gap? On ours there is like 2 inches of space. I know it is still weather proof with the rubber flaps but I would have thought it would go tight. I’m just wanting to know if these 2 things are normal production or if we should take it back to have them look at it. Thanks and great video.

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

It looks like the two things you described are normal. I can also get my fingers between the glass and the insert. And we also have about two inches between the slide and the side of the camper. Thank you for watching! We are glad you enjoyed the tour. Let us know if we can help in any other way!

@DSmith-zk8ug 3 года назад

We have the 193 and we had major issues with our weather stripping but our's was because when they manufactured our camper they installed the stripping too close and every time the slide went in or out it chewed it up on the outside. In the end when our camper was in for warranty work they totally replaced with a new version of it and all is good now. Friends of our's have the 208 and their not fans of the window in front. They've had it dripping from condensation on them when they try to sleep and nothing they did resolved it.

Be sure you get a weight distribution hitch. It can transfer a considerable amount of tongue weight off the rear of your vehicle. Combined with an anti sway bar gretly improves handling and reduces sway.

Great video, I’ve been following you guys closely trying to decide what to get for my Model X. Did you guys consider the Keystone Passport 239ML at all? Or with 4200 dry weight is that just too close for comfort when you add up family weight in car plus stuff packed up?

@AllElectricFamily 4 года назад

Thank you! ! 🙌 We're so glad you've found our channel! We didn't look very closely at that particular model, but our rule of thumb was to look at single axle trailers. We just wanted to be sure we stayed below that 5,000lbs when we were all loaded up and one axle was a good indicator that we would remain below 5k. We've been in a situation where our trailer was too big for our vehicle and it wasn't fun...so we were pretty cautious! With what we've learned so far from towing with the Model X, we'd say three things: (1) Look for something with a single axle. (2) Look for something that sits as low to the ground as possible (3) Find as aerodynamic of a trailer as you can! Hopefully this helps. Let us know if you have any more questions, we're happy to help!

@@AllElectricFamily any regrets at this point going with the single axle? I’ve seen smaller rigs with dual axle and while it’s a considerable weight savings I’m wondering what’s being sacrificed with respect to ride stability, etc.
