I purchased a partially completed Rangeline that was hail damaged during construction. I has all the exterior mods complete. The interior has the sub floor and the wiring installed. I have watched your mod videos. They have helped me decipher some of what airstream was going to do. I would like to collaborate with you because you have taken most of the hidden panels apart. Would you be willing to contact me?

Yes, we noticed your added insulation. Good idea.

You’re fortunate that you can pull your circuit breaker panel fully out. Mine will only come forward about 1.5” before short wires stops it.

Gosh-that fuel pump would drive me insane

RAM

"Dodge?"

Thanks for sharing, looks like I’ll stick to my portable solar panel.

What kind of bolts did you use for the fiberglass poptop installation? I wonder if you could just put 2 bolts in the front leading edge and rely on alien tape or other super duty double sided tape for the rest, may making four courses of tape rather than 2. The hope is that if done while the roof is cool, heat expansion would stretch everything tight but within limits. I really appreciate your experimental cutting edge work for our benefit.

Differential thermal expansion - it'll get you every time! Great video though.

Just installed mine today, thanks for the great video.

Wow

Incredible! Thank you for sharing!

Amazing

Wow

The noise is coming from pump internally not from vibration on frame and rubber mounts won’t help. I tried.

What exactly is that King roof cap? I am trying to figure out how to mount an OTA antenna to it but it appears to be merely an access point for cabling with one on both sides of van. However, when I removed the curb side cover there were no wires present. I presume I must fish them through from underneath by removing the back cabinet panel. Thanks for your videos!

Takes him 5 minutes to show the interior Jeez.

Great job! Let's hope Airstream is watching

Clever fix. Let's hope Airstream is watching.

Would you buy this unit again?

Hello Duncan, I sent you a question on Messenger. Seeking your advice on a RL electrical issue.

Great idea. On my '24 Rangeline, your 3d printed buckles are too wide to fit in the cutouts in the metal frame. I scaled them to 80% when I printed them, but then the 1" strap is a bit tight. I wonder if they changed the size of the cutouts between the 23 and 24s or is it just something with my printer settings.

Your videos are great! Thank you. I have a '24 that I picked up 3 weeks ago. When I go into the settings, Battery 1 is my house battery and Battery 2 is my chassis battery. Maybe Airstream watched your channel... I'm going to update the House battery settings per your suggestions. I'm hoping this helps as even on sunny days, my refrigerator seems to use more juice than the solar can charge. Losing about 20% charge per day on the House battery with nothing but the fridge on.

nice van but where tv at, you gotta have that

We have the exact floor plan, same color and of course with the pop top. Excellent Van and features. Great overall for practicality. We absolutely love ours. You guys did great on choosing your van.

Is this a 2023 or ‘24 RL?

Great video by the way. Besides the layout of your Ridgeline and the Solis (assuming 59PX), were other factors such as price tipped the scale one or another in your decision to go with Ridgeline? I've got a family of 4-5 and we're in the market for a class B that sleeps 4-5 people. Thanks in advance

My head wants to explode every time I hear someone call a Ram, a Dodge. Please do your homework on the difference. Geez

What kind of gas mileage are you getting? I’m in Canada, so please lemme know if you’re talking US or rest-of-world gallons. Thx! 😊

Great overview! I’m looking at buying a Rangeline and everything you said is on my list of positives! Thanks for the info.

Great floor plan. Like the idea of no propane. Why the retarded electric system? A little more battery and a 3000 inverter, problem solved. It wont be on my list until they fix it.

What are your thoughts on the Roadtrek Pivot Lumber in comparison?

The Dodge platform has come a long way since since they've overhauled the previous. They added a couple of gears made the seats more comfortable and hopefully did something with the crappy sound systems while in driving mode that most of these have. I'm on my 4th Dodge ram pickup and the sound systems are kick butt.. I'd love to incorporate that into one of these the only downside is it's only front-wheel drive however it gives you a wide platform in the rear but you should still have the van lifted a couple of inches and put more aggressive wheels on it so many people have done that and it is made a big difference.. adding lithium will allow the rear AC to kick on or have a way to run it off of the second alternator if you have that because the generator will use up a lot of fuel as your traversing down the road for several hrs .. but it is the most affordable platform in the dual twin beds is great for someone like me to put my e-bike inside because it is $12000 and one of the most expensive on the planet. I'd be more comfortable with it inside than out unless I towed a trailer.. I hear so many people talk about quitting van life and I'm just getting started by selling everything at 62 and visiting this beautiful country of ours... At my age I have really nothing to lose..lol... Good luck with whatever you do, maybe you'll change your mind about van life ... But the AC has been a concern of mine to I am ready to purchase real soon

Very nice rig and features. Good luck. 👍

good modification. for a company like airstream, you would think that they would have thought of these issues. relatively simple fix if anyone was listening when the van was being tested.

have you experienced any issues with the electrical or battery charging? not sure why you would have to rewire the get power from the power tower. should this obvious issue not have been solved by airstream?

speak up!!!

I’m seeing the MSRP is about 132-134k. What did you pay for yours?

Panoramic rv has way better quality and floor plan. Check that out.

first ive heard of the rangeliner,,,,,thankyou

smart and simple solutions. thalles for sharing. how do you like the Ridgeline so far?

We are really disappointed with the climate control of our rangeline. If it is 86 degrees outside, it is 86 degrees inside. The air coming out of the AC is definitely cool but that cooling does not reach past the bathroom. Wife factor -100, will be selling our back. Expensive mistake.

Great video..please make the subtitle cc available thank you.

Very informative..thanks

Thanks very interesting. Don't listen to the hater

The narrative put me to sleep!

That’s extremely loud. Nice modification.

This is an excellent and very helpful video that gives us all the reality of some of the problem areas, which of course you don't find out about in the dealership videos. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and discoveries of these things so that we be mindful of them as possible future Rangeline owners.

Thank you for showing me this issue. I was considering to buy a Rangeline, but no longer considering this van. With the microwave out, you can clearly see there is no insulation, only Lizard Skin. I guess Airstream and Thor believe this is okay. Well, in my opinion it's not. Lizard Skin is good for sound deadening because of the spray on coverage, but that's all it is. This looks like an uninsulated camper van. Obviously, not a good choice for a full-time RV'er like me. Too many issues with the Rangeline; other video's show water leaks and too many other problems. I'm moving onto another brand. Thank you again for creating video's with so much thought and work going into your content.

I've reached a ripe enough age that I've had 2 vehicles where the fuel pump failed. What do you think your Ram service center will say if they ever have to fix this? Is there an aftermarket pump that is quieter? The remaining noise is still relatively loud and would drive me and my wife nuts trying to sleep
