Family of 4 coming from travel trailer world - we absolutely LOVE the Solis. It allows us to go ANYWHERE, park ANYWHERE, without having to think twice or plan every inch of our travel. While it may looked cramped, when you rotate the driver/passenger seat, there’s ample space… not to mention, when camping, why would you even want to be inside?! The Solis is AMAZING!

Do your kids use car seats? I want to know how they would fit.
@ranig2848 Жыл бұрын
@@brittanyconner8955 Our younger one uses a large booster, older no longer needs one. Narrow car seats would definately fit. Keep in mind there are no LATCH/anchors so you'll need to use seatbelt to secure car seats - which is how it's done in some vehicles anyhow. It should be easy to fit one car seat and believe two would fit as well. We ALWAYS remove the rear passenger table while driving. I've seen crash videos where the driver seat hits the table which then hits the rear passengers - so we NEVER have it open while driving. Anyhow, regarding car seats, I'd definately find a dealer that has one or even rent one on Outdoorsy (or similar) and try it out.

Hey Josh! Love your videos. I was looking through your playlists, and something that would be super handy for towables is playlists by weight range. You have thousands of videos, so I totally understand that's a daunting request. I picked up a Subaru Outback, which has a relatively low tow rating (and payload capacity), and finding videos of towables that vehicle can pull has been a challenge.

The class B vans are nice if your going to say RV shows and want to take your pets. Like the roof top tent, but not sure my 6’ body would fit. Wife might have a hard time climbing up and down to roof top tent. She probably wouldn’t like the toilet or shower arrangement. Trouble with class B vans is there expensive for what you get. Glad you added a pretty face. Mary did a nice job as well as you Josh.

How well does it cool in the loft? I think ot would be nice if they could make the master bed also convert to a bench with fold down legs and add a table - maybe a movabletablethat you could use outside. So, if you do travel with kids and you homeschool, it gives an extra space to do that.

I am definitely torn between which I like more, roof sleeping space or more solar power and an awning. I mean, I guess since it doesn't have an inverter and battery system that can power the climate control, I'm gonna have to go with the roof sleeper. Plus, I guess the awning's usefulness is limited to certain environments and particularly not good in parking lots. So, really, it comes down to "convention vs outdoors"
