    Post Grand Design Factory Tour on YouTube

    Admins please delete if someone else has posted this, but one of the Youtube couples I follow just posted this a few days ago.

    Heck, they're possibly members here?

    Here's the LINK

    Thanks for posting the video. The video of the back of the Nautilus panel and the roof was interesting.

    Now if they’d do away with that cheap flexibile water supply hose....

    Interesting that another member posted some still pictures and was asked by GD to remove them, yet here we have a 20 minute video that is OK to watch.

    This is definitely outside what GDRV has allowed in the past. A recent discussion about still pictures resulted in very clear direction from Grand Design to remove pictures of their production processes from this website. I have tagged Emily on this discussion and will leave it to GDRV to deal with this YouTube video.

    Thats a great video and shows a very positive look at GD. Would love to see the guts of the Solitudes and Reflections like that. I KNOW I'd have asked about that frame surface rust though. Was on the new frame and on the video creators rig.

    Ditto. We've been on 2 factory tours - 2014 and 2017 - and on both were asked NOT to take pictures.

    I believe at some point in the video they discussed working with GD on the video, including the editing. So it seems they have permission from GD for the video and filtered out what they don't want in the video.

    The only thing that surprises me about this situation is Emily's feedback (after consulting someone at GDRV I trust) was to remove the pictures on this forum.

    When we took the tour about two months ago, our group specifically asked Jeff about taking pictures and video and sharing on the forum and elsewhere. He without hesitation shared to take all the pictures and video we wanted. I do not recall specifically what he said about sharing but I think he said OK to share on the forum as well as other social media sites. As a longtime and loyal GDRV owner I would not have posted my pictures a few weeks ago if Jeff said not to do so.

    I would be shocked that these folks did not make it clear that they would be posting this to their site. I also suspect that GDRV was well aware of them and what they do even before they (I hope) disclosed their sharing.

    It is quite apparent that this whole thing of not taking any pictures of tours years ago has evolved substantially to having not just a lengthy and detailed video from a std. tour posted but also including video from a special tour where production was underway.

    It will be good to get feedback and clarity from GDRV on this.
