Hi Everyone, We hope you enjoyed our video! Which Class C RV was your favorite? Please say hello by leaving a comment below! Also, please feel free to ask any questions or just tell us about yourselves. We want to get to know you and share our RV experiences.
U a real asset and logical person, glad you have made videos on Class Cs. even though we dont have a C, and many call it a beginner RV, i see it as all u should even need if you camp or decide to spend months in it. the B class is very cool, but very expensive, i see that class useful as well but very expensive. Bs can tow tear drop so you can have base camps, C is the base camp, and if you get the V8 7.2l you can tow your sight seeing vehicle.
When I retired, my wife and I purchased a Coachmen Freelander 21QB, which has an almost identical floorplan to the Thor Chateau 22E you reviewed. The one drawback with most of the smaller Class C RVs is that there is no comfortable place to comfortably sit in the evening (or on a rainy day) to just read a book for a while. The first thing we did was to remove the dinette and replace it with a La-Z-Boy Recliner/Rocker Love Seat with a console unit between the seats. Not only does it replace the dinette (width) perfectly, it actually widens the walkway a little bit. Our RV has allowed us to very enjoyably visit many National Parks and State Parks. It is very easy to drive, set-up, maintain, and repair. I know that Susan likes the extra room in the Renegade that the slide out provides, but for me, it is just one more thing that can go wrong. The Gulfstream and the Thor are very similar, but I have to give my nod to the floorplan of the Thor, especially the slightly bigger main bed. Modified the way our Coachmen is, it makes a great mobile two-person cottage.

That is exactly what my wife and I immediately determined as well. The very small campers don't appear to have anywhere to sit except the dining table, the bed or up front either behind the wheel or in passenger seat.
This video just popped up in my feed. I have a 2004 Gulf Stream Conquest Ultra, and it's 30'. I'm preparing to take off on my first solo expedition trip, so I'm refreshing my memory on how everything works. Usually my husband wants to take care of everything, so I don't have all the hands-on experience that he does.
That’s awesome! Best of luck on your solo adventure. Here’s a video that might help.th-cam.com/video/_RRXgWyIOX0/w-d-xo.html thanks for watching and commenting

Here is my tip... Learn to do your own RV maintenance and use a good car maintenance management program ( I use Automotive Wolf car care software ) to track and monitor it all. It also tracks all my parts, expenses and creates a detailed vehicle maintenance log. After RV'ing for over 10 years I've saved thousands by doing most of the maintenance myself and there is a lot of it on an RV! A small roof leak can cost you thousands in repairs so I check my roof at least twice a year. Keep on top of the maintenance and you'll save money and be RV'ing for years :)
1 year ago the cheapest RV motor home 65,000 thousand dollars out the door in Texas . Today that same RV is around 90,000 yup, that’s right! I like it, but will wait for now,,
Hey Luis, It is pricey at the moment! Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan By the way, we hope you will subscribe to our FREE monthly digital/video magazine called RV Camping Magazine. Let us know how you like it! rvblogger.com/rv-camping-magazine/
Hey mantiscity, Yes the price has definitely increased when rv-ing became more popular.

@@tavioussoul1153 that's why the price has gone up. Most people can't buy a house and we're looking to at least have some type of roof over our head that we actually own.
Spend $9,000 more than the Renegade and get yourself a Leisure Travel Van Wonder RTB (Rear Twin Bed) and be a lot more comfortable (lots of cabin space), a lot more private sleeping (the rear compartment can be separated from the front of the cabin by a door), a separate shower from the toilet (I hate stepping out of the shower and having someone on the toilet), and a better sleeping arrangement (two twin beds that can combine into a single king) without the use of slide outs (plus some of the biggest storage space in the industry for a Class "C"). All of it fits in a vehicle that's 24'9" long, only 10' tall )including AC system), and 7'11" wide. Definitely worth checking out!
Leisure Travel Vans are well built and beautiful but I disagree with comparing them to space, storage and livability of a traditional style Class C motorhome. IMO (and past industry specs), due to the fact Leisure is built on a Ford chassis, they are more like a B+ versus a C. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting!
@@RVBlogger Yeah, you are right on the storage when compared to traditional Class C motorhomes, but LTV definitely squeezes every last square inch of storage out of its motorhomes! Thanks for making such great and informative content!
Another fan of the Renegade here. Love the idea of the Murphy Bed, the pantry, that big closet in the bathroom, and the fact that it has a slide as well. Great video!

I agree with Susan. The Renegade would be for me. The couch replacing the dinette (do you really eat such big meals that a table is needed?) means that the bed can stay down as long as you are camping. And the bathroom is bigger.

I Absolutely Love all 3 of these, I will be going full life RV in March of 2024, been studying ALL RV’s this is FAR the best fit for me, I’m 70 excited about this new adventure for me and my kitty.. I love the 1st one and of course the last one. You 2 are the best, thank you I will be following you for the next few months and staying in contact
So glad you liked the video and enjoyed seeing these 3 Class C RVs! We appreciate the kind words and support. Do you have Facebook? We have a group for helping "RV newbies" called RV Camping for Newbies that might help your research and questions. facebook.com/groups/RVCampingforNewbies Please feel free to ask us any questions here on TH-cam as well, we're happy to help!
You are very welcome. We enjoy sharing RV floor plans for those looking to venture this type of travel lifestyle. When the time comes don't forget to check the used RV market. You can find great deals. Our biggest advice is to get it inspected to ensure the RV is safe and not a money pit. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!
With the amount of at home work right now it would be lovely to see more work station area. Singles and couples are now RVing full time but it's still not being reflected in many builds. Every time I see a new one it makes up my mind more to buy an older one, gut it, throw in a new engine and generator and build my own. The Murphy bed is a fantastic idea though. Something like that folding up can bring up a desk area rather than another wasted couch.

Hi, nice to meet you both :) If I had to choose I would go with the Conquest. I like it a lot. Very nice, minimalist, & not fussy. Thanx very much for sharing your video. This is definitely my dream life! :)
Nice to meet you Sleepless Aquarius. We own a Conquest and love it so that's a great choice! Hope we can help you find the perfect RV. Thanks for watching and commenting.
GRECH RV - Class B STRADA -ION is battery and you can skip these worries and care/maintenance of the generator. Its a huge peace of mind. We love ours.

It's interesting that you featured our Class C, the Gulf Stream Conquest, which we purchased 4 years ago. Ours was a gently used 2007 model and we love it. So far we've logged over 30,000 miles in 4 major trips and several lesser ones. (All round trips from Kingston, Ontario Canada where we live, to Alaska, Alabama (twice) and the one we're on right now to the Gaspe peninsula in Quebec, Canada). The 6 litre gas engine and overdrive automatic transmission has served us well, albeit it's thirsty (I estimate we're averaging 12 MPG, but then we consider that the cost of having fun). I should mention that we tow a flatbed car hauler behind, which carries our full-size car to give us flexibility in driving options once we're settled into a campground.

Really appreciate your video! Trying to decide between class c or class a. It’s gonna be my full time home so I’m trying to get as much information as I can. Thank you!!
Thank you! So glad you found our video helpful. We started out with a Class C and moved to Class A. Our biggest reason for wanting an A was that front windshield. We wanted an amazing view. We sometimes sit in the front seats while we are camping just to enjoy the view on bad weather days. But ultimately finding the floor plan you love is what's most important. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting!
C classes are a tricky ticket!! WIND IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. HILLS…. DO NOT TRY TO KEEP PACE WITH TRAFFIC, slow it down, check rpm’s.. All the ones I’ve driven … thousands of miles.. & I’ve driven a few new & used… It’s more important to have self leveling air RIDE. The drivers seat must be FULLY ADJUSTABLE. CARPLAY !! Backup cameras, LANE ASSIST… get it… all the bling inside is nice, but make sure your storage has the better slam locks. You won’t know if they’ve popped open on a motor home, you can see it on a travel trailer..

I like the Conquest, too for reasons as Mike. What I noticed with all three is there is NO counter space to prep and cook food. I needs lots of space for that purpose.

Huge quality difference between the Renegade and the Thor and Gulfstream. You better also have money if you want the Renegade because the initial price and cost of upkeep is significant as well. Liked the no slides in the first two and we are skeptical of such a large slide in the latter (Murphy's Law). Our choices would be from Winnebago or Forest River because of the better quality of Azdel walls and fiberglass roofs.

Buy used under 40k with a year model 2010 or newer, keep for a year or two, get rid of it and do over. You'll usually not lose money, keep updating your rv, and most of the depreciation has already taken place.

We had a C class with the corner bed we hated that bed! Sold it after two years. Corner beds sound great but the person sleeping on the inside has to climb over the other in the middle night to get to the bathroom. C class with a slide much better.

The Gulf Stream model is very nice, seems roomy despite the absence of slides, but the bed is too short. Lots of light through the large windows. The Thor Chateau seems to have more storage in the kitchen area, and larger cabinets with adjust shelves, but I don’t like the shower curtain, a retractable door would be better. The Vienna is my favorite for interior features ie: counter space, an area for the trash bin, a power tower and storage, but no oven. I’m short so I don’t like the idea of lifting something hot, over my head, from the microwave. Thank you for the video of all three models.

I've been eyeballing rvs for a few years . Nothing (that I could afford) jumped out at me...till right now. I love this rv ...the set up, the better than usual style, nice bathroom that actually looks like a normal bathroom ...and not a bucket in a closet. Shower looks roomy. Absolutely love the oversize bed I'm the back corner. Very cozy and comfy. I probably would use that overcab for storage only ...but I could see having a roommate here and that could be a suitable sleeping space with it's own boy of privacy. So yeah. Checks all the boxes. .....except .. A HUNDRED GRAND!!!!!!. Dang it. Ok so I'd have to have a roommate to live in this rv, y income is just barely a thousand s month. But I need to do something. Not to be a party pooper, but I'm currently living in a nice home ...but ..there's abuse happening toward myself. I need to get out. I have disabilities but I can take care of myself, unfortunately, I cohabitate with s person who is one of the kindest, sweetest people I've ever met. But he has a drinking problem...and lately he just flips out for no reason when he's intoxicated..I've been attacked 2 times. I wish I could change the situation, but I have come to the conclusion that he is never going to change. Anyway...sob story over. If someone is interested in sharing how I could get my pinky toe in the RV door ...I would certainly appreciate it.. Thankyou and Happy New Years?!🎆🎆
So sorry to hear about your situation. It's a long shot but we purchased our first motorhome from Facebook marketplace. The cost was much more reasonable. Best of luck to you. Thanks for watching and commenting.

They all look cute and cozy… And the salesman are fantastic… We bought a brand-new mini Winnie Winnebago and we can’t use it not fully anyways. The hydraulic system doesn’t work and the poop tube in back that supposed to go in the bumper doesn’t fit. Thanks for letting us know that when we were looking at it! Terrible customer service
Hi Rosemarie, We aren't salespeople...we just review the RVs...Our poop tube doesn't fit in the bumper of our Class C RV so I feel your pain on that one. Thanks for watching! Mike
Hey Steve, Nope, we stay away from the technical and smaller details, we try to do walk arounds of the insides of campers so people watching can get a "feel" for being inside. There are a couple great channels on TH-cam that do extremely thorough reviews of just 1 camper, vs us showing the insides of a couple. :) Thanks for watching and commenting! ❤ Mike and Susan
I am Vietnamese, but like most Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Based on Feng Shui, the bed should be on the floor or stayed as lower as possible for cooler temp and fresh air. Up on the overcap is a no-no for sleeping, bad for your health. That's where heat is hotter and bad air accumulated.

We are thinking of buying an RV but prices are extremely inflated now and there are thousands of them for sale around the country, all the lots are jammed. I will wait.
Very nice floor plan and decor. I have a Toyota Mini Cruiser RV. It is vintage, but in perfect condition and mechanically sound with a new roof and tires, cost a whole lot less than what was shown. I also have rear airbags so it rides better and metal storage boxes that lock, on top of a rear rack. All I have to do is use it. There's a reason her name is Eliza Dolittle! I have it set up for boon docking or emergency use.

Its a 2015 model, everything works like new. I guess if I was to use one word to describe it, "solid" would be it. I believe as many others do, quality has diminished as well as dependability since 2018 on most name brands of RVs.
@@misfitfarm3142 Its a matter of perspective. I can not afford to buy a house. The apartment I was last in went up 30 percent in last two years, making it impossible not getting into debt and with no chance of savings . My payment for my RV is less than a third of what my apartment was. Its still expensive but much cheaper than my old apartment which most likely is still going up big time every new lease signing. The trick today is look for long term lot rentals and avoid traveling. The loan is fixed, the lot costs are not. But between my loan payment and long term lot rentals this past year its at least 30 percent cheaper than apartment living and I can save once again, hopefully to buy my own lot. The key, don't travel, thats for the rich folks. Unfortunately the cost of loans will soon prohibit many from joining the full time RVing life. Hence the increase in tent sales across the country.
@@misfitfarm3142 Hi Misfitfarm, Living in an RV is not cheap! Everyone's situation is different though. There are ways to make it a cheap way to live but it takes some work and planning to pull it off. Plus it depends on how you like to live. We like having hookups and A/C and we also enjoy towing our Jeep with us so living in an RV for us is way more expensive than others who may choose to live or more minimalist lifestyle. We haven't made a video about our expenses but LivinRVision made a really good video about their budget. Here's the link to their video. I watched it and found it very informative. th-cam.com/video/JF__1MAMiG4/w-d-xo.html Thanks! Mike
These are nice , but I'm 1 of those type of people who only needs a 16 to 17 foot trailer that I can pull behind my full size 2002 Tahoe cos since its just me I dont need anything huge even a 15 foot trailer would be great .

I love class C RV's! I'm thinking about getting a vintage 2002 winnebago class c RV, because they're not too pricey. When I'm old enough to get a drivers liscence, you'll bet ill be spending all day 24/7 in the RV!
Thank you Kathy. Motorhomes are a bit costly compared to a TT for sure, cause now you have an engine. Class B RVs are even more expensive than a Class C! Thanks you for your continued support!
Not long, unless you use your generator. Many newer RVs are pre-wired for solar, maybe a solar panel, but you would need to upgrade to spend a long time "unplugged". Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting.

I have to say, i saw a few videos today and MOST don't tell you the price, (sigh) Nuff said!! Be nice to know if they are all seasons. THANK you good video and great info!
Many don't show prices because it can be misleading depending on how old the video is. We try to provide an accurate MSRP. Each manufacturers definition of "extended season" or "4 season" RV can fluctuate. We also recommend checking manufacturers website for those details.

I like RVs with out slide outs. My parents had one with slides outs and they also had with out side outs. My parents love RV with side outs. Here the reason why I don’t like side outs 1 over time the side outs tend to sag and they also tend to leak. Grated it will usually takes 5-10 years before that happens. There just more maintenance. Plus you have to Measure to use the RV. The only good thing about side outs is it gives you more room. To me there more negative then positive. Me and my husband are looking into a Class C that’s around 25 feet. That can pull your small truck. We want a resort style camper. Nothing too big and nothing too small something we can park it almost anywhere.
All great points. Luckily we have a lot of reviews about Class C motorhomes under 25'. Harder to find without slides. Hopefully we can help. Thanks for watching and commenting.
My wife and I are thinking about buying a class C motor home. I drove big rig for 18 years and my wife is a school bus driver so I think we can handle it. Lol Just want to get a good deal . Something that won't cost all of our retirement money? Trying to learn all we can before we decide what kind to pull the trigger on.?

I really appreciate your videos. I'm thinking of selling my home & getting a small RV or truck camper. I need it to fit in a parking spot. Do RVs & truck campers get as hot as cars? I also need climate control for my 2 dogs for about 10 hrs when I'm not plugged in. Doesn't have to be super comfortable, just tolerable & safe.

I like the way Des of no slides (less things to break) but I can't handle those corner, "mini" beds! That third one 🕐 s beautiful! The finishes and the storage are amazing but it comes at a price but it sure is pretty!

Would love for y'all to go into more detail about the cockpit and engine size. Also, about the appliances. The type of fridge i.e. 12v or gas. Microwave, is it convection or not. Do they have storage under the dinette? Keep up the good work. I'm learning a lot from y'alls vids.

Hi Everyone,
We hope you enjoyed our video! Which Class C RV was your favorite? Please say hello by leaving a comment below!
Also, please feel free to ask any questions or just tell us about yourselves. We want to get to know you and share our RV experiences.
I like them all, especially the Conquest.
U a real asset and logical person, glad you have made videos on Class Cs. even though we dont have a C, and many call it a beginner RV, i see it as all u should even need if you camp or decide to spend months in it. the B class is very cool, but very expensive, i see that class useful as well but very expensive. Bs can tow tear drop so you can have base camps, C is the base camp, and if you get the V8 7.2l you can tow your sight seeing vehicle.
Where can you buy one of the three RVs shown?
where can you go to buy the RB
what's the address coz I'm in Seattle
When I retired, my wife and I purchased a Coachmen Freelander 21QB, which has an almost identical floorplan to the Thor Chateau 22E you reviewed. The one drawback with most of the smaller Class C RVs is that there is no comfortable place to comfortably sit in the evening (or on a rainy day) to just read a book for a while. The first thing we did was to remove the dinette and replace it with a La-Z-Boy Recliner/Rocker Love Seat with a console unit between the seats. Not only does it replace the dinette (width) perfectly, it actually widens the walkway a little bit. Our RV has allowed us to very enjoyably visit many National Parks and State Parks. It is very easy to drive, set-up, maintain, and repair. I know that Susan likes the extra room in the Renegade that the slide out provides, but for me, it is just one more thing that can go wrong. The Gulfstream and the Thor are very similar, but I have to give my nod to the floorplan of the Thor, especially the slightly bigger main bed. Modified the way our Coachmen is, it makes a great mobile two-person cottage.
Hey Harry,
Great points!!

I have a coachman freelander 21cb and hubby and I love it!
That is exactly what my wife and I immediately determined as well. The very small campers don't appear to have anywhere to sit except the dining table, the bed or up front either behind the wheel or in passenger seat.
This video just popped up in my feed. I have a 2004 Gulf Stream Conquest Ultra, and it's 30'. I'm preparing to take off on my first solo expedition trip, so I'm refreshing my memory on how everything works. Usually my husband wants to take care of everything, so I don't have all the hands-on experience that he does.
That’s awesome! Best of luck on your solo adventure. Here’s a video that might help.th-cam.com/video/_RRXgWyIOX0/w-d-xo.html thanks for watching and commenting

Here is my tip... Learn to do your own RV maintenance and use a good car maintenance management program ( I use Automotive Wolf car care software ) to track and monitor it all. It also tracks all my parts, expenses and creates a detailed vehicle maintenance log. After RV'ing for over 10 years I've saved thousands by doing most of the maintenance myself and there is a lot of it on an RV! A small roof leak can cost you thousands in repairs so I check my roof at least twice a year. Keep on top of the maintenance and you'll save money and be RV'ing for years :)
Thanks Crankin Hankin for your advice. Thanks for watching and commenting.
1 year ago the cheapest RV motor home 65,000 thousand dollars out the door in Texas . Today that same RV is around 90,000 yup, that’s right! I like it, but will wait for now,,

That's typical in other areas of the economy right now with this massive inflation happening now.
And gas
Way to expensive for a class c.
And for just a few thousand more…
I remember when class C’s were like $40,000. We are talking like 2 years ago.
Hey mantiscity,
Yes the price has definitely increased when rv-ing became more popular.

Babylonians love to take advantage of Huemans.
May as well just buy a full house at this point… smfh
Trailer apat 40 k are just as big but you need a truck to pull it
@@tavioussoul1153 that's why the price has gone up. Most people can't buy a house and we're looking to at least have some type of roof over our head that we actually own.
Spend $9,000 more than the Renegade and get yourself a Leisure Travel Van Wonder RTB (Rear Twin Bed) and be a lot more comfortable (lots of cabin space), a lot more private sleeping (the rear compartment can be separated from the front of the cabin by a door), a separate shower from the toilet (I hate stepping out of the shower and having someone on the toilet), and a better sleeping arrangement (two twin beds that can combine into a single king) without the use of slide outs (plus some of the biggest storage space in the industry for a Class "C"). All of it fits in a vehicle that's 24'9" long, only 10' tall )including AC system), and 7'11" wide. Definitely worth checking out!
Leisure Travel Vans are well built and beautiful but I disagree with comparing them to space, storage and livability of a traditional style Class C motorhome. IMO (and past industry specs), due to the fact Leisure is built on a Ford chassis, they are more like a B+ versus a C. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting!
@@RVBlogger Yeah, you are right on the storage when compared to traditional Class C motorhomes, but LTV definitely squeezes every last square inch of storage out of its motorhomes! Thanks for making such great and informative content!

This is how mine is! I pull the privacy curtain and I am in my own room! I will say they are not for tall and larger people.
I Absolutely Love all 3 of these, I will be going full life RV in March of 2024, been studying ALL RV’s this is FAR the best fit for me, I’m 70 excited about this new adventure for me and my kitty.. I love the 1st one and of course the last one. You 2 are the best, thank you I will be following you for the next few months and staying in contact

It is my dream to one day buy a RV like one of these and just tour america. Very cozy and fit. Thanks for the tour really appreciate that friend
You are very welcome. We enjoy sharing RV floor plans for those looking to venture this type of travel lifestyle. When the time comes don't forget to check the used RV market. You can find great deals. Our biggest advice is to get it inspected to ensure the RV is safe and not a money pit. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!
@@RVBlogger really appreciate the advice I will definitely keep that in mind when the time comes for me to buy a RV again thank you
With the amount of at home work right now it would be lovely to see more work station area. Singles and couples are now RVing full time but it's still not being reflected in many builds. Every time I see a new one it makes up my mind more to buy an older one, gut it, throw in a new engine and generator and build my own. The Murphy bed is a fantastic idea though. Something like that folding up can bring up a desk area rather than another wasted couch.

It's interesting that you featured our Class C, the Gulf Stream Conquest, which we purchased 4 years ago. Ours was a gently used 2007 model and we love it. So far we've logged over 30,000 miles in 4 major trips and several lesser ones. (All round trips from Kingston, Ontario Canada where we live, to Alaska, Alabama (twice) and the one we're on right now to the Gaspe peninsula in Quebec, Canada). The 6 litre gas engine and overdrive automatic transmission has served us well, albeit it's thirsty (I estimate we're averaging 12 MPG, but then we consider that the cost of having fun). I should mention that we tow a flatbed car hauler behind, which carries our full-size car to give us flexibility in driving options once we're settled into a campground.

When I first started looking at RV's back in 2020-ish they were going for $73,000 all day long. This was for something in the Thor 25 ft category.

Really appreciate your video! Trying to decide between class c or class a. It’s gonna be my full time home so I’m trying to get as much information as I can.
Thank you!!
Thank you! So glad you found our video helpful. We started out with a Class C and moved to Class A. Our biggest reason for wanting an A was that front windshield. We wanted an amazing view. We sometimes sit in the front seats while we are camping just to enjoy the view on bad weather days. But ultimately finding the floor plan you love is what's most important. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting!
C classes are a tricky ticket!! WIND IS NOT YOUR FRIEND.
HILLS…. DO NOT TRY TO KEEP PACE WITH TRAFFIC, slow it down, check rpm’s..
All the ones I’ve driven … thousands of miles.. & I’ve driven a few new & used…
It’s more important to have self leveling air RIDE. The drivers seat must be FULLY ADJUSTABLE.
CARPLAY !! Backup cameras, LANE ASSIST… get it… all the bling inside is nice, but make sure your storage has the better slam locks. You won’t know if they’ve popped open on a motor home, you can see it on a travel trailer..

Huge quality difference between the Renegade and the Thor and Gulfstream. You better also have money if you want the Renegade because the initial price and cost of upkeep is significant as well. Liked the no slides in the first two and we are skeptical of such a large slide in the latter (Murphy's Law). Our choices would be from Winnebago or Forest River because of the better quality of Azdel walls and fiberglass roofs.

Buy used under 40k with a year model 2010 or newer, keep for a year or two, get rid of it and do over. You'll usually not lose money, keep updating your rv, and most of the depreciation has already taken place.

We had a C class with the corner bed we hated that bed! Sold it after two years. Corner beds sound great but the person sleeping on the inside has to climb over the other in the middle night to get to the bathroom. C class with a slide much better.

The Gulf Stream model is very nice, seems roomy despite the absence of slides, but the bed is too short. Lots of light through the large windows. The Thor Chateau seems to have more storage in the kitchen area, and larger cabinets with adjust shelves, but I don’t like the shower curtain, a retractable door would be better. The Vienna is my favorite for interior features ie: counter space, an area for the trash bin, a power tower and storage, but no oven. I’m short so I don’t like the idea of lifting something hot, over my head, from the microwave. Thank you for the video of all three models.

I've been eyeballing rvs for a few years .
Nothing (that I could afford) jumped out at me...till right now. I love this rv ...the set up, the better than usual style, nice bathroom that actually looks like a normal bathroom ...and not a bucket in a closet. Shower looks roomy. Absolutely love the oversize bed I'm the back corner. Very cozy and comfy. I probably would use that overcab for storage only ...but I could see having a roommate here and that could be a suitable sleeping space with it's own boy of privacy.
So yeah. Checks all the boxes. .....except ..
A HUNDRED GRAND!!!!!!.
Dang it. Ok so I'd have to have a roommate to live in this rv, y income is just barely a thousand s month. But I need to do something. Not to be a party pooper, but I'm currently living in a nice home ...but ..there's abuse happening toward myself. I need to get out. I have disabilities but I can take care of myself, unfortunately, I cohabitate with s person who is one of the kindest, sweetest people I've ever met. But he has a drinking problem...and lately he just flips out for no reason when he's intoxicated..I've been attacked 2 times. I wish I could change the situation, but I have come to the conclusion that he is never going to change. Anyway...sob story over. If someone is interested in sharing how I could get my pinky toe in the RV door ...I would certainly appreciate it..
Thankyou and Happy New Years?!🎆🎆
So sorry to hear about your situation. It's a long shot but we purchased our first motorhome from Facebook marketplace. The cost was much more reasonable. Best of luck to you. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Slideouts are nice for the added space but they also add weight to the rig and it's something else to break down...and they eventually do break down.

Nope, we stay away from the technical and smaller details, we try to do walk arounds of the insides of campers so people watching can get a "feel" for being inside.

I am Vietnamese, but like most Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Based on Feng Shui, the bed should be on the floor or stayed as lower as possible for cooler temp and fresh air. Up on the overcap is a no-no for sleeping, bad for your health. That's where heat is hotter and bad air accumulated.

I like #3 but way over my budget for a class C. Hope to find something nice in the next couple years. Need room for a litter robot though.
Hey Donna,
Great choice! What's a litter robot?

You should show a bit of the exterior of the RV. You don't have to point out every feature but as least show what it looks like all around the outside.
Sorry it's not usually possible. Many times we are at RV shows or dealerships where the RVs are tightly packed in. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I like the middle one best. With mobility issues I need the wider shower for my shower stool. I also prefer 3 burner stove which last one didn’t have.
The Thor Chateau 22E has a great floor plan! Glad you saw a floor plan you liked. You might be the first person that has commented liking the 3 burner stove 😀 Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting!

We are thinking of buying an RV but prices are extremely inflated now and there are thousands of them for sale around the country, all the lots are jammed. I will wait.

Very nice floor plan and decor. I have a Toyota Mini Cruiser RV. It is vintage, but in perfect condition and mechanically sound with a new roof and tires, cost a whole lot less than what was shown. I also have rear airbags so it rides better and metal storage boxes that lock, on top of a rear rack. All I have to do is use it. There's a reason her name is Eliza Dolittle! I have it set up for boon docking or emergency use.
Hey S Jordan,

Its a 2015 model, everything works like new. I guess if I was to use one word to describe it, "solid" would be it. I believe as many others do, quality has diminished as well as dependability since 2018 on most name brands of RVs.
how expensive would you say living in an rv is?
@@misfitfarm3142 Its a matter of perspective. I can not afford to buy a house. The apartment I was last in went up 30 percent in last two years, making it impossible not getting into debt and with no chance of savings .
My payment for my RV is less than a third of what my apartment was. Its still expensive but much cheaper than my old apartment which most likely is still going up big time every new lease signing.
The trick today is look for long term lot rentals and avoid traveling. The loan is fixed, the lot costs are not. But between my loan payment and long term lot rentals this past year its at least 30 percent cheaper than apartment living and I can save once again, hopefully to buy my own lot. The key, don't travel, thats for the rich folks. Unfortunately the cost of loans will soon prohibit many from joining the full time RVing life. Hence the increase in tent sales across the country.
@@misfitfarm3142 Hi Misfitfarm,
Living in an RV is not cheap! Everyone's situation is different though. There are ways to make it a cheap way to live but it takes some work and planning to pull it off. Plus it depends on how you like to live. We like having hookups and A/C and we also enjoy towing our Jeep with us so living in an RV for us is way more expensive than others who may choose to live or more minimalist lifestyle. We haven't made a video about our expenses but LivinRVision made a really good video about their budget. Here's the link to their video. I watched it and found it very informative.

Thanks!

These are nice , but I'm 1 of those type of people who only needs a 16 to 17 foot trailer that I can pull behind my full size 2002 Tahoe cos since its just me I dont need anything huge even a 15 foot trailer would be great .
I have an 18 ft. Tioga it gets decent mileage and I can even park it in beach parking in venice beach.

I love class C RV's! I'm thinking about getting a vintage 2002 winnebago class c RV, because they're not too pricey. When I'm old enough to get a drivers liscence, you'll bet ill be spending all day 24/7 in the RV!
See you on the road!
Those were some expensive Class C motor homes. I love your informational videos.
Thank you Kathy. Motorhomes are a bit costly compared to a TT for sure, cause now you have an engine. Class B RVs are even more expensive than a Class C! Thanks you for your continued support!
Would be interesting to learn how long they can provide electricity and water when out in the wilderness.
Not long, unless you use your generator. Many newer RVs are pre-wired for solar, maybe a solar panel, but you would need to upgrade to spend a long time "unplugged". Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting.
I like the under 25', parking, drivability. I do like the slide out for more space

I have to say, i saw a few videos today and MOST don't tell you the price, (sigh) Nuff said!! Be nice to know if they are all seasons. THANK you good video and great info!
Many don't show prices because it can be misleading depending on how old the video is. We try to provide an accurate MSRP. Each manufacturers definition of "extended season" or "4 season" RV can fluctuate. We also recommend checking manufacturers website for those details. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting Teresa.

ioOoo..is THat why.
No. They are not all season. Pipes freeze .
Definitely have to be aware of the weather and temperature when RVing.@@MeTreesndirt

I like RVs with out slide outs. My parents had one with slides outs and they also had with out side outs. My parents love RV with side outs. Here the reason why I don’t like side outs 1 over time the side outs tend to sag and they also tend to leak. Grated it will usually takes 5-10 years before that happens. There just more maintenance. Plus you have to Measure to use the RV. The only good thing about side outs is it gives you more room. To me there more negative then positive. Me and my husband are looking into a Class C that’s around 25 feet. That can pull your small truck. We want a resort style camper. Nothing too big and nothing too small something we can park it almost anywhere.
I totally agree with you.
All great points. Luckily we have a lot of reviews about Class C motorhomes under 25'. Harder to find without slides. Hopefully we can help. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Very good reviews. I’d have to go with the Conquest for my money. Happy New Year. Cheers!!!
Hey F&T
We appreciate the love and support, good to hear from ya! Happy New Years!!
My wife and I are thinking about buying a class C motor home. I drove big rig for 18 years and my wife is a school bus driver so I think we can handle it. Lol Just want to get a good deal . Something that won't cost all of our retirement money? Trying to learn all we can before we decide what kind to pull the trigger on.?

I recently bought a 2020 Thor Tiburon model and it's about 25ft and has a living room slide out and a bedroom slide out. That Murphy bed is super cool though, I like that a lot although not much privacy

I really appreciate your videos. I'm thinking of selling my home & getting a small RV or truck camper. I need it to fit in a parking spot.
Do RVs & truck campers get as hot as cars?
I also need climate control for my 2 dogs for about 10 hrs when I'm not plugged in. Doesn't have to be super comfortable, just tolerable & safe.

Would love for y'all to go into more detail about the cockpit and engine size. Also, about the appliances. The type of fridge i.e. 12v or gas. Microwave, is it convection or not. Do they have storage under the dinette? Keep up the good work. I'm learning a lot from y'alls vids.
