Nice rig! Welcome to the community.

I'm looking at purchasing a 28SBH in the next month or 2.
I'm ditching the apartment rent and going full time RV.
Towing with a 2019 Nissan Frontier (max tow weight 6380 lbs)

All the videos online are quite poor when it comes to showing how various things work, and i don't want to drive 4+ hrs to tour one just to find out i don't like it.
I really like the floor plan, but not so much the colors, but i figure i can change upholstery, and cabinet colors later.
Ok, here's my questions:
- What's under the "full" bed in the rear? I know the outside joke of a fridge, but that isn't the full width of the bed...
- Are both dinettes removable for outside, or just the main one in the slide?
- What storage is available under the dinettes (main & rear)?
- What storage is available under the queen bed?
- Where are the tanks located?
- For full time RV, is the toilet upgradable to something a bit more...residential?



I'd like to put on solar my self (i'm an electrician), but i'm not sure about the wiring. Would it all just connect to the 12V port on the front, or somewhere else? Any advice on that would also be appreciated.

You would get a better response if you started a new thread. Old threads tend to get lost and are hard to revive.

I recommend you buy a better brand of travel trailer. Dutchmen, Kodiak, Keystone, and Voltage tend to have more problems than most others. Their main benefit seems to be low purchase price.

You can probably find the same floor plan in multiple other brands. They may cost a little more to buy but tend to cost less in the long run.

You should post the solar installation question separately. You will get better results.

Search for "Solar" in the search box at the top of this page. You will get plenty of reading material.

I wish you good luck and happy trails ahead!
