[0:00]hey guys I got some very exciting news
[0:02]to share with you so I have been looking
[0:06]at RVs online as you know for weeks and
[0:10]I was looking at the chat and then
[0:11]realized they're not right for me if I'm
[0:14]going to be boondocking a lot I don't
[0:16]want to be relying on my traveling fuel
[0:19]as my main energy source uh I discovered
[0:23]the Forest River Foresters and they just
[0:25]feel perfect for me I looked at a whole
[0:30]bunch of them and I have settled on a
[0:32]2018 Forest River Forester
[0:36]24011 W MBS don't ask me what any of
[0:40]that means this might feel a little bit
[0:42]rushed but I I talked to the
[0:46]dealership um to the salesperson I told
[0:48]him basically everything I said in my
[0:50]last video on this topic so they know
[0:53]what to expect from me we worked out of
[0:55]price before I was even there uh I put
[0:58]down a deposit I you know it's it's
[1:00]refundable if I decide I don't want it
[1:01]when I get there um but it's mine if I
[1:04]want it and I'm going to be heading
[1:06]there today um shortly after this video
[1:10]so I'm just going to show you I am so
[1:12]excited so excited this feels perfect
[1:15]for me as my first RV so let me just
[1:17]show you what I what I found here so
[1:20]they don't have a lot of pictures and I
[1:22]hope this comes out
[1:24]good but there's only 12
[1:26]pictures let me get back to the
[1:28]beginning here
[1:30]this is the only one they have of the
[1:33]outside which you
[1:34]know you know I I would have been nice
[1:37]to see more than that but that's why
[1:39]your deposits can come back um and the
[1:42]reason I did that I just want to be
[1:43]clear because I know they try to press
[1:45]you into that stuff oh somebody else
[1:47]might buy it well I put 2,000 down on a
[1:50]credit card and that's going to lower my
[1:53]the principle what I take out of you
[1:55]know from a loan so I thought you know
[1:58]what I could do that and then I can you
[2:00]know I'll have more cash on hand if I
[2:02]want to just pay that off my credit card
[2:04]I can do that or you know it just it
[2:06]gives me some flexibility that that I
[2:09]really need right now so so this is it I
[2:13]I think it looks beautiful now let me
[2:14]show you the
[2:16]inside um it's not like so so it doesn't
[2:20]even have an oven um maybe you guys have
[2:22]suggestions
[2:24]for um you know maybe I'll upgrade this
[2:26]at some point make some little upgrades
[2:28]could I put an oven in it
[2:30]you know a small one or you know maybe I
[2:34]just um I don't know you know I felt
[2:36]like I could do without that it it felt
[2:39]like a big thing because when I thought
[2:41]about my life on the road an oven felt
[2:45]pretty important I'm not going to lie so
[2:47]picking a unit that doesn't have one
[2:50]feels kind of like a big deal but um I
[2:54]think that I'll do a lot of cooking just
[2:55]on a campfires I can also you know get
[2:58]like a Blackstone or something something
[3:00]like you know there's there's options
[3:02]I'll figure that part out if you know
[3:05]down the road I decide that I want to
[3:08]trade into something else definitely I
[3:10]think an oven's going to be a thing for
[3:12]me now what I really love about this one
[3:16]is you don't I found it very distracting
[3:19]to have those bunks going over the
[3:22]windshield this doesn't have that I
[3:24]wonder if it's a little more aerodynamic
[3:25]I don't know um so this is what the you
[3:29]know Command Center looks like whatever
[3:31]you call that but then you know this is
[3:34]not you know whatever just I don't even
[3:36]care about this
[3:37]stuff
[3:39]um where's the picture for this small
[3:42]fridge that's kind of a big deal to me
[3:44]too but um you know it seems like that's
[3:47]just the case with all the Foresters I
[3:50]like the bed setup I feel like
[3:52]that's um I remember sitting in one
[3:56]laying down in one um when I've been
[3:58]looking at them and just feeling like
[3:59]this feels like a safe comfortable place
[4:02]to be just you know in the corner of the
[4:04]RV um I just like the feeling of it I
[4:07]have a feeling this one would be
[4:09]similar I like that this one did have
[4:11]the sink and the toilet and all that and
[4:14]the you know the same space it just
[4:16]feels weird to have the sink somewhere
[4:19]else so that was a nice thing the 2019
[4:22]one didn't didn't work that
[4:24]way um I don't see the picture for it I
[4:27]could swear it is I know it's this one
[4:30]there's some cabin basically there's
[4:32]some cabinets here instead of that's not
[4:35]a place to sleep there's Just Cabinets
[4:36]there now I understand what I'm Giving
[4:38]Up by doing it this way if I'm parked
[4:42]somewhere I'm you know just for the
[4:44]night and you can't have your slides out
[4:47]that's probably where you usually sleep
[4:48]and that's what I was going to do but
[4:51]that's just going to give me more
[4:52]storage space that I really need and I
[4:54]guess I'll just sleep on the couch I
[4:56]mean it doesn't have you know it's never
[4:57]everything isn't going to be perfect
[4:59]especially when you're getting one this
[5:01]small um I think this is a very good
[5:04]choice for someone's first
[5:07]RV
[5:08]um with the with my circumstances like
[5:11]this feels right I am so excited now I'm
[5:16]not going to let that excitement make me
[5:19]make any rash decisions but like I said
[5:21]we kind of worked out the details ahead
[5:23]of time um over the phone I I felt
[5:26]comfortable with the price it's going to
[5:27]be a well probably after the deposit I
[5:30]paid it'll probably be 84,000 out the
[5:32]door everything included you know the
[5:34]taxes all that
[5:36]84,000
[5:39]and you know it feels right so I am on
[5:43]my way to go and inspect this thing and
[5:48]probably do a deal with them you know I
[5:50]won't be driving at home today they'll
[5:52]keep it for a couple of days but
[5:54]sometime next week you can probably
[5:56]expect that thing in my
[5:58]driveway
[6:00]guys this is so cool my dream is coming
[6:02]true I I can't wait to share this
[6:04]adventure with you I it's time for me to
[6:06]get ready I'll talk to you soon
