Good unit at good price point for a young family to be able to get started camping with 1/2 ton. Wide stance axles and outdoor kitchen are really nice. Tub in the bathroom makes sense on this one I think because I picture a family with younger kids. Factory needs to go ahead and install the solar panel on there...enough to maximize the charge controller. We just appreciate how you do what you do. Your the best. Thanks Nerd!

I like! A king bed in that size is unheard of, and in a private bedroom no less. I like the bright, wight color palette. Neat bathroom door. It's nice to see a little bit of style. Window in the bathroom is always welcome. A tub, or shub, is a good thing in bunkhouse. Either/or. It's only for the wee ones either way. OMG!! I love the shot of you sitting in the base of the dinette booth. Classic Josh!

The Michael Jackson joke made me lol! Had to go and watch it again. The RV manufacturers should be solar ready. When I buy an RV, I want it to be ready-to-go. Not have to pay for this and that after the sale. I would just like the complete package up front. I know that not everyone wants everything, but I feel a lot of people do. You would know more about that than me. Love your jokes and sense of humor!!!

I would love to see this exact floor plan only get rid of the dinette and replace it with a pull out couch with stow-able tv tables. This is a great set up!

Thank you for doing what you do. God bless you. 😁💕😎😇🌈👍

For a small family this is an excellent trailer. It's not for me, but I'm a very narrow niche guy. OTH, Josh, you keep me stretching what I'd consider by constantly showing things I'd have never considered before...keep it up dude.... ps.... SHOW MORE TOYHAULERS!!!!!

For a family with smaller kids I think the tub is a good idea. For empty nesters or those with older children who are too big to use the tub as a tub I think a shower is better. The king bed does take up a lot of space especially for hanging storage. That is a drawback for folks who use the trailer not only for camping but also use it as a personal hotel room where the extra hanging storage and room a queen would provide more comfort.

I love the look and features of this trailer. As a young family (2 kids 5 - 10), it'd be great for us...when it evolves in a year or 2. lol. 1) That dinette looks amazing, but with the legs pushed out 3", and a slide that pins, so it can slide in and out, so people can pass it in "Road Mode", or actually fit behind it when deployed and camping. 2) Check top bunk rating...should be 300 lbs, but it would do and support a couple of kids+ at it's current 200 lb rating. 3) Outlets on the face of the bedside tables would be pretty awesome. 4) if not standard, add options for 100, 200, or 300 watts factory solar panels (I think 350 is about the limit for a 30 amp charge controller), 5) I love that the outdoor kitchen is complete. And when I 1st saw it, I was wondering how it slid or rotated out, to get to the buried sink. So either moving the grill to a swing out arm, and positioning the sink in a more direct reaching spot, where you don't need to reach over the grill, would be awesome. Bonus) If the sink moves left (aft), and the stove swings out (and maybe kinda stores over the sink); if where the sink is became some storage under the bottom bunk, with a sliding (or something) access door, from the inside, my wife would put the litter box there. yeah, we also roll with sand box dumpers and a dog. lol I have zero concern about the slides lack of rear window. And Josh, take a look, your "Small Town RV Nerd" channel is getting close to 200k subscribers. You are clearly doing something right. And by that, I mean a lot. You Show, demonstrate and educate on nearly everything related to RV's and that entire world, in an honest, open, informed, and entertaining way. Corny jokes and all. which are normally funny, in my humble dad opinion. lol. Sign looks wicked. I hope that makes it to other Bish's stores too. I also love that they are basically encouraging you to keep doing, what you're doing. Thanks for doing what you do.

Oh man!! I have been waiting for the Novi show I live lest than a hour away from there. While this is a nice camper I’m missing the “ living room “ area. I would take a recliner over a bunk room. I have health issues that I can’t stay out in the heat or sun

Solar ready is always best...plug and play make things easy for the customers to install. They will love you for it.

Not a bad unit for the price point. Seems like a great RV for the 1st time buyer or someone that's stepping in to their first new camper from their smaller previously owned camper. Cons (personal preference), I like darker interior, but I love the kitchen layout. I'd prefer the toilet be against the outside wall to allow a straight shot in to the shower. I realize they set it up as they did due to keeping water lines on the interior walls instead of exterior, but...(like we'd say in the car biz, it is what it is) I think it looks like a great value for the features, amenities and NEW for the price point. Great camping without breaking the bank! Over all, nicely done :) Lovin' that axle spacing!!

The way they built the privacy wall for the front bed was genius!

Switch placement is awesome, however in a floorplan like this, it is expected children would be around so would love to see a spring loaded cover or something to keep little hands out

A big comfortable sofa option and some standard solar would raise this entry level bunkhouse trailer to another level👍

Love the cardboard cutout! Then you can do voice overs!!!

I prefer no glass doors...shower curtains easily add color :) tub 2

Hi Josh 🙋 Tub good for pet baths. King would be a waste of space for me. Rather have a double and more storage. Only in bed to sleep 😄 Guess could use the bunk for storage. 🙁 Option for no bunks? Not hauling kids. Don't majority of solo & couples NOT haul around kids? 😳 Bigger stove/OVEN. Table & chairs ( for 2 ie couple!) instead of dinette. So called shoe garage good place for a tootsie toaster. Awning should cover camp kitchen & come w/ladder! Needs a generator. Majority of places i camp solar is useless. Can use a my gooloo IF absolutely necessary.

Nerdboard Josh is awesome.

Thanks Josh - some great features and few ???'s... Almost 200K Subs!!!

I like the tub. It's handy for small children and pets.

Very nice unit. I'd like to see it with the split storage lower bunk with cargo door like in the Surveyor Legend bunk house.

Don’t see any Northtrails down here in our part of the Southern Trails😊😊😊. This one isn’t getting us excited. Josh appreciate everything that you’re doing, keep up the good work

Thank you for all the great videos. Can you get a theater seat? I liked it overall. I again would get it without the bunks. With the shower I like the shub option to put dirty shows in or bathing suits to dry and less possibilities of spilling out.

In my opinion, bunks need their own room..but I understand that means more room and weight

That camp kitchen area….is going to be removed and made into a beautiful storage area for our motorcycle gear bags and helmets 👍👍👍👍

It’s a cartoon! We always look good in cartoon lololol

I actually am looking for a bunk and have been set on Jayco's for years now that I'm ready I started to seriously watch your videos and your what to look for videos too. I love this North rail I wouldn't know where to find one unless I went to Michigan. Is a possibility. This one is great it's got the funks it's got a giant dinette. Cute bedroom it's short and so am I so I'm not going to bonk my head in the bedroom. And it has the heated underbelly which is actually one of the most important things. I think it's wonderful. I'm actually going RV shopping tomorrow. Thank you for your videos and I wish that I could find one of these here but I don't think that's going to happened. I see the price on that North trail and oh my God it's cheaper than the truck!! I love it

Flat Josh, for your cardboard twin 😀😀

I need the Nerd Board! ❤😂

Oui je la veux 😁👍👍👍

To me, Solar Ready should mean: Connections are in appropriate places, you just need roof panels, and batteries drop em in and hook em up, and there is an option you can buy to do it, or the dealer has a kit they can drop in. Maybe a rail system that you need to add too for the panels on the roof, but there should be no drilling, no wires pulled, just really plug and play. Maybe the controller can also be added instead of included as they tend to find the cheapest knock off there is. Anything else to me isn't ready at all.

Classic Josh moment at 7:25. Love it! This model looks like great balance between features and cost. I think tub would help keep shower drips off the floor, so that's a good thing. Our GeoPro has a little tub, and we find it's a good place to keep soft cargo like duffels and grocery bags from shifting around during travel. With 110 VAC mini fridge outside, I'd think this will be most often used with full hookups, so lack of solar panel might not be a liability. On the other hand, having a couple hundred watts of solar would help keep the inside kitchen 12 V fridge going on travel days. But folks could also deal with travel days by just loading the fridge with a few big frozen plastic water bottles when they leave home. Question on the wide stance axles: Does that create a noticeable amount of tire scrub when turning in tight parking situations or when driving on winding roads? Thanks, I appreciate the effort and humor that you put into your work!

I like the wide stance, the camp kitchen, the no heat vents in the floor, the no carpet in the dinette, the usb plug in the bunk lights. The good sized kitchen counter and big sink, and the hugh pass thru storage bay in the front. I don't like the bath tub, the bathroom sink faucet, the dinette, no fireplace, the no struts on the overhead cabnits.

Hey Uncle Josh hope you're having a great day? I really like this North Trail 24BHS. The inside is amazing with the double bunks, the nice size u-shape dinette and the king bed. They done a excellent job of being able to get to everything in road mode. I think the only thing that I would change is the tub an shower combo. I would prefer to have just a shower in the bathroom. I don't understand why the top bunk is rated at 200 pounds and the bottom bunk is rated at 300 pounds. That is a neat trick taking a fuse an plugging it it the cord like that,way cool. As always Uncle Josh thank you for everything that you do, your number one fan Leonard Nelson from NC. Keep rocking on Uncle Josh!!!!!!

So here's my problem. We watch your reviews all the time looking at "couple's campers" and a disturbing amount of them are bunkhouses. My wife and I have no kids. We're a "couple" so we want no bunks. That being said what's the difference between a couples camper with bunks, and a family camper?

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary... Is that little extra. What Josh does does us

Your cut out personifies Weird Al's " just to white and nerdy"...;) congrats on your KZfaq success

We put a cali king in ours. Dont miss the space at the end of the bed at all. Im 6.6 though,

+1 for tub, parents with young kids. I prefer solar ready. I'm into solar in general. I would personally put a 310watt panel on there. Camp kitchen is a little odd.

So it still has a wood roof and floor? May as well do Azdel all the way around… I’d like to see a bunkless model too.

They gave Josh a cardboard cut out? There goes the neighborhood :) That is sooo cool!!!! Is that part of the free swag, please? The movie 'Multiplicity' comes to mind. Cardboard Josh will henceforth be referred to as 'Lenny'. Plot twist: Cardboard RV Nerd was the real RV Nerd all along.

I don't like that they didn't extend the awning over the camp kitchen... Like why not?! Don't want people to cook outside during the rain.

This is a very nice Trailer.

Je la veu combien elle coute 😁😁👍👍france

A tub is a more versatile option, simply because a lot of families have small kids and I can tell you from drippy splashy experience that it's a lot easier to bathe a little kid in a tub than in a shower. I know a lot of families with littles end up taking collapsible tubs with them when they go camping and then have to struggle to fit them in someplace so that they can put clean and relaxed kids into bed at night. In terms of space, a king bed takes up too much room in a camper of this size, and I think families who are at this price point, it makes more sense to have more space to move about and to have some storages space in the bedroom. and at I think your customers are going to look at the practicalities as being more important than having the luxury of a bigger bed (and a lot of folks don't even have a king bed at home). I like this kind of floorplan a lot and it offers small famiies with smaller budgets a great way to go camping.

Nice looking Northtrail RV😊😊👍👍👍👍👍 that cut out resembles someone we know! Someone did some very good work😊😊👍👍👍👍👍 how bout Josh the Nerd 2

Your cardboard cut-out is called an honor. I think it's awesome. Josh 2.0. He needs a camera. I do like the RV. It does need some solar not just prepped. I do find it interesting that the outdoor kitchen is not under the awning.

Nice!!!!

Take the slide out, shorten it by 4ft, remove the outside kitchen thing, incorporate removable bunks, and add a Murphy bed and then I’d love it😂😂 I’m a keep saying it till a manufacturer listens to me 😂🙏

My Ford Ranger could yank this all over the country pretty comfortably.

Nice unit but that awning needs to be bigger to cover the outside kitchen.

Do you think one could be ordered without the top bunk? And a Queen bed in the bedroom?

like the lighter colors...

Tub or shub preferred.

Kinda looks like body armor in the outdoor refrigerator.

Love how you do the videos, your the best in this field

Hey Josh, I have a 22 heartland mallard IDM26 which as you know just the same trailer different stickers and I will say there’s a lot of things I love about it there’s some things that I truly do not like one of my biggest complaints are the switch locations for the slide out in the line I do not like them being on the bottom cabinet. I wish they were on there upper cabinet and then my wife’s biggest complaint is that she does hate that overhead storage on the bed other than that it’s a good trailer. We love it we use ours year-round unless it’s snowing, but it is a good family camper.

That cutout... Flat Josh in a nod to Flat Stanley.

JOSH! I would love to see your review on the 24DBS by north trail. These BHS's are too vanilla! :) (and how do i know if my underbelly is heated? is there a switch or are they just on?)

Tub for kiddos...

Name for the standee: Josh Jr.

Josh we are starting our trailer search. Length is an issue so our top pick so far is a GD Imagine xls 22 mle at 26’ 1”. Other than a Cougar 22mls at 26’10”. I don’t think the quality is quite there compared to the GD but is there something else out there with a dinette and theater seats with the quality and length of the HD?

A 100 watt solar panel costs $85. TV placement is useless with no theater seats as only one person can watch. Is there an option other than the dinette?

I kind of like this one, if they had a 28-30 ft box that would be interesting. The dinette slide is way too short to be useful though.

Love your videos! We’re looking to downsize from our current trailer. Any idea why there isn’t a drawer/cabinet below the oven?

If a RV company can prep or be ready, why not just go ahead and install and be done? Once the day arrives and I'm ready to buy, I would like it to be camp ready and not have to fool with adding this or that after the fact.. This TT look great on the inside as well as it little bro the 22RBSS which Ive seen live in person and its sitting next to you in this vid, but that back wobbly wall just feels weird, especially since I haven't seen anyone else do this design, however great presentation on this unit. Keep up the good work.

Or a “Schubby” shower tub cubby

12:30 or Walgreens

0:03 Why does he look better? I thought you were always competing with him. 7:00 perfect mime work. still seem to be competing?

We have a 21' 24BHS and as parents of two toddlers the location of the slide and awning switch are a problem....

I wish they would have either added the solar panel as well or done nothing at all so I could build and add my own solar system. Also that small awning is wierd. I have a Mallard 251BH which is the cousin to this model and my awning is 18ft. It goes from the rear covering the outside kitchen all the way to the front where this one is attached to the coach.

I was really looking at this one to replace my Rockwood, if something happens and i have to replace it. And this thing got real close, but that camp kitchen is weird and it's not covered by awning like on my 25brds and you also lose the free floating table and the extra outside storage that Rockwood always makes sure to use.

Corrugated Nerd. Nerd Card. Flat Nerd. 😅

I have same floor plan coachman apex. It makes no sense to me why manufacturers continue to put tubs in. If you use tub for bath not showers you fill up gray water tank. manufacturers should offer both model with tub or shower.

What is a comparable version without bunks?

My 22CRB dont have any side slide windows at all. Dont miss them.

I am a shub fan. Pet and little kid friendly. A "double bunk" that only holds one person (200). Not cool. Nice road mode. Good on full camp kitchen. Very bad on sink placement. Move grill to rear bumper, slide sink over.

Thank for the great videos. I can't believe that you have to reach over the outside grill to get to the sink. Ouch! Why are the bunks a 1000 lbs dif? And the solar set up needs to go all the way and be ready to go. Enjoy the information

I opted to utilize a second comment for the camp kitchen according to the displayed overhead layout: Pro: I like the 3 piece Con: The sink looks to be useless as positioned? Why don't the put the appliances in the order from rear to front, Stove, sink, fridge? It makes no sense to me that manufactures split the fridge and sink up. I honestly don't think they thought the camp kitchen option through very well :(

Great video. Maybe just me, but I really didn't like the bathroom door decor. The outside kitchen is nice, But, the sink is in a terrible location, I feel the solar is half done. Don't understand them not at least putting a 200 watter up there. Ladder prep but no ladder? Another out of pocket expense? I do like the U shaped dinette. You are correct though. 3 people. Maybe mom and dad and 2 small kids.300 pound lower bunk because of extra support from the outside kitchen. The awning is a bit small. So, I like, but don't like?

Can you get a couch instead of a dinette?

About the outdoor sink .... no dishwashing in the nude after cooking on the grill, at least for a few hours! Otherwise, we loved the floorplan!

the awning and slide buttons being low are in perfect child reach. I'd also worry about accidentally bumping it or our large dog bumping it. also, not a fan of brands not offering 2 way fridges. we boondock a lot and it just rubs me the wrong way when a brand blocks out a customer demographic on a unit like that.

Nice! Available without bunks?

Ok JTRVN, is that ladder ready or ladder prepped?😅 Btw, I hate those tubs/showers. I’m going to put a big grab bar in mine because when you step out of a shower with wet feet you always feel like you’re going to fall stepping over that ledge and onto a surface that’s lower than the tub you were in. Thanks brother!

Hey Josh, what's the Diamond Club?

Only a shower, no tub.cute little unit, but I could do without the bunks .

Hi Josh. What year did the North Trail start using Azdel? I have 2017 24BHS. Any chance it has it? Thanks!

Also, do you know of any other RVs (any brands) that is just like this but has access to outside kitchen sink and has better solar package?

Great, what is the overall length?

Do they make a 26 (under 30') less then 8k gvwr, 1k max tongue weight, etc. Looking for a BH like this but prefer smaller dinnett with a love seat.

does this come with a cargo door in the rear or not an option?

There should never be any low rv buttons/controls in a family style bunkhouse that children can reach. It’s a recipe for disaster. I really dislike the placement of those slide controls so much, enough so that it would be a deal breaker for us.

Still waiting for a link to order my RV nerd hat.

uncle Josh

I am wondering where you are located? I thought you were in Michigan, but didn't realize you had other locations. We're thinking of upgrading to a 5th wheel and would love to deal with you.

What does way for what a half ton

I'm confused. Do you move between dealers,? Some videos, you work for "H". Some you work for "B".

shower only!!!

How do you enter the contest to win the 30,000.00 dollar travel trailer?
