Are Leisure Travel Vans Worth the Extra Money? 2025 Leisure Wonder RL Walkthrough
In this video, we look at the brand new 2025 Wonder RL from the Canadian RV manufacturer Leisure Travel Vans. These models are very hard to acquire and there is a backlog of orders. We have heard many RVers raving about the quality and design of these vans, and we decide to take a look at the new model to see if their compliments are warranted. We also ponder the question: Would we pay over MSRP for an RV?
We visit the FRVTA Fall RV Show in Tampa, Florida and do walkthroughs of numerous RV's at this annual event.
These units have very comfortable floor plans, and offer a relatively large living spaces than many other Class C's. This model has a spacious rear lounge with huge picture windows bringing the outside in. As always, we make some comparisons to our 2024 Tiffin Wayfarer 25RW, and give some constructive criticism as well.
We hope our videos will provide helpful guidance to those who are looking to purchase a Class C RV, or who may be trying to decide which RV to purchase for their travels.

    I've been looking at this same model but a 2025. After watching your videos (which are awesome, btw!) i'm now scared to death of this product. This is brutal because I've been more impressed with the seemingly top quality of everything about this model more than anything. Should I run for the hills in buying the 2025 model of this?

    Great video for coach comparisons. Only 2 of us, in our 60's, approaching retirement - zero desire for extended stays at campgrounds singing around a campfire - instead the desire is to stay on the move seeing stops - including urban areas the B+'s and larger can't go. B's fit the bill. Informative videos like this make it difficult since there are actually SO many options out there, making it difficult to narrow down - looking $140-150k max. The more informed we're getting the more confused! Still wrestling between the Promaster and Transit chassis, let alone the buildout. Thanks for the video and info.

    @larrygray1557 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

    While I love the LTV, not for me. Now if others could duplicate the quality - and those that duplicated the RL floorplan actually made it worse with the cheap-out compromises. Kudos to LTV for retaining the propane "pacemaker friendly" stove rather than hopping on the induction bandwagon. Besides not wanting to give LTV 3 years of my remaining life waiting, it is good that they now have limited availability on lots to walk in rather than rely brochures. A concern was the square shower which appears the same in every model. It is not if you can stand, but can you bend over and wash lower legs and feet. Initially loved the RL but then realized that in east/west sleeping position not even queen wide (54"=full), 60"=queen) with no walkaround requiring climbing over one's partner where north/south could scoot to end. Tiffin actually had an RL equivalent floorplan, but discontinued it after a year.

    We have 99% the same tow setup as you. I am no expert but I think you have the brake controller not set-up correctly. According to our instructions, the seat needs to be about half an inch from the brake controller. If not, there is not enough "stroke" in the shaft to depress the brake pedal. I even got the seat stiffener because the seat was to soft and we did not get enough braking from the Jeep. We also have a 2 door Jeep and tow it with our Ekko. Just something to look into.

Just drive on a flat road and lift off of the gas and dit the button on the controller in the rv. You will feel if the Jeep is braking or not. Even at max, ours is not as powerful as I would like it. That is why I got the seat stiffener. Have not tried it since we got it. We have a 2 door Rubicon too, but it is fully build for off road and will definitely be "overweight".

    Love you guys! Can you find a Tiffin Midas 24mt to review? Also please include the cccc along with other weight specs.

      We will put the Midas on the list. The “Cargo Capacity” number we provide is actually the OCCC from the yellow sticker. We should have been more clear on that. Thanks.

      From what we’ve seen she has had issues dealing with quite a few manufacturers. We agree that Thor seems to have more than their share of issues.

    "Nova" means "won't go" in Spanish. Not a great moniker for a vehicle.

    @karinwest919 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

    What you cannot see on the Nova is the insulation that Coachmen is putting into the units which make them easier to cool/heat and make them quieter during the ride. The layout is always a very personal decision, they all have their pros and cons.

    Other differences in cabinets you can show with Thor. If you knock under the upper cabinets, it will feel and sound like thin cardboard. Which is also like the drawers, where bottom is a white thin cardboard that may not support much weight over time. Entegra is a step up in some areas, like a bit more solid under cabinets and they also have smart hidden locks behind the door edges. With Coachmen, I have concerns about what is behind the scenes, such as the wiring. When I see someone demo how to winterize, the valves are in an area often referred to as the rats nest, where it looked like no care was take wire management. Electrical repair work may be difficult when it is such a mess and hard to figure out. Non perfect van out there, just have to be informed to know what you are getting into. Some may be fine with Thor quality due to the savings and the knowledge they will likely have to be handy fix and beef some stuff up.

    On the Nova, the back drain is for the black water and also another valve for the grey water shower tank. The drain in the center is for the grey water kitchen sink. However both grey tanks are connected together too. Also the hitch is a higher quality plus if you look underneath you will see the tank has a nice frame to support them.

Believe thats the one Matt (matt's rv reviews) has gone to a couple of times, another utuber from europe keeps showing these rvs too from this show (several do actually). I would love to go someday but my worry is i would be seriously trying hard, on how to bring one home 😂. $$$ could be costly, it's like waving chocolate in front of a dieter. Lol . I believe u guys would have a blast checking them out. 🍻

    I LOVE that you mentioned the basement space for the Litter Box!😻 My Hubby and I are in our research stage for our retirement fifth wheel, but in our case it will be our full time home and we have pretty much settled on Brinkley for the quality and durability. I'm always looking at any floor plans, cargo carrying capacity and climate control with our pets (and my future reptile room, or at least shelves🐍🦎🐍) in mind, and a hidden area for our Tilly's litter box is one of those things 🤔
