Thanks you guys. I have had my 20K for about 14 months, and I’ve only deployed the couch into a double bed once. As a matter fact, I don’t carry the back cushions with me anymore, and I leave the couch set up as a single bed full-time. That’s where the cat rides when we’re driving, lol… In the sleeping bag, lol. If I had a boyfriend/partner to travel with, I would make him set up the bed every night, lol.
You made the bed assembly look easy....The THOR Rize / Scope have the same type of bed...But some people say it’s difficult and like Tetris...I’m going to post this video on the Facebook Rize /Scope group page so they can see how easy it is...and I’m sure everyone will like the bedding products they use, so when I can get the links, I will share them on the group page too...Nice Job.l.Thanks for showing and sharing...Enjoy your new van !!
It takes a little getting used to but once you do, it's rather easy and takes little time. video link: th-cam.com/video/Qp4_yo2OVBM/w-d-xo.html Wool Topper: www.amazon.com/dp/B004DC1S2K/ref=as_sl_pc_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=membervans-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=fd95ba70199b06da4a2739a1d5487339&creativeASIN=B004DC1S2K Comforter: www.amazon.com/dp/B088P95GH7/ref=as_sl_pc_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=membervans-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=54b87085b19509cb294ac7999d9ad7a5&creativeASIN=B088P95GH7
Daniel, thank you for the comment. I do think the AC unit could be a larger BTU, (only 11k btu) and like all AC units is quite loud. It does struggle at times to keep up but we've come up with ways to cool the unit better by closing bathroom doors and a blanker over the cab so that only the "house" is being cooled. However, it beats not having AC at all. The van isn't in my opinion very well insulated. THOR really cut corners in this department as many others but we love the floorplan and the rig overall so we deal with the shortfalls.
After researching many class B and B+ models we settled on the Thor Sequence 20 L model with the 2 separate twin beds so we don't have to go through this very step every night.
Congratulations on your new rig! Totally understand! It now only takes us 1 min to set out the bed after having the rig 1 year and 35k miles. Like you we also researched and became quite the expert in the class b chassis. We chose this one due to the spacious interior and the larger galley and rear bath. However, we all camp differently and have different needs and must haves. Safe travels on your journeys ahead!
Thanks for the video. Considering buying this model. What are the names of the 2 bedding pieces? I looked on Amazon but not sure if it the same as yours.
Thank you! We bought the beige cushion topper on Amazon. Here is the link: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004DC1S2K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Great video. 3 questions. Do you leave the table up while traveling? How loud is generator while operating? And do you feel bathroom too cramped for showering and other business.
Chuck, thank you for watching! 1. Although we could leave the table up while traveling, we usually don’t. We’re actually planning on getting the Lagun Table mount. The table is a little cumbersome and takes up a lot of usable storage. 2. Prior to this rig we had an Airstream Interstate and the generator on that unit was excessively loud. The generator on this rig is extremely quiet. You can barely hear it while inside. It is actually able to be used in national parks so I’ve heard. Haven’t tested that for credibility, but it’s definitely quiet! 3. The bathroom is actually very usable in my opinion. For a class b I truly believe it’s the most usable. I don’t have any problems showering or “other business”. You have enough room to turn around and wash, you can’t really bend over but you can rest your foot on the toilet to wash your legs. Again, thanks for watching and hope I answered your questions!
Thanks for showing this. I'm seriously looking at this floor plan for snowbirding in, but really hope Thor comes up with a more streamlined way to make this bed. It's just me an a large dog, so the size and features are perfect, but that looks like it would get really really old doing it for months at a time.
Absolutely. We had the same concerns as you. However, for us it actually isn’t that bad. It takes about 2-3 minutes and you’re in bed and 2-3 mins and your ready to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee. They way I look at it, I spent more time making the bed in my full time bed everyday in our previous rv. This gives us the most open and airy layout on the market.
It really is in our opinion the best floor plan on the market today (for us). There is a small cubby under the bed forward bench behind drivers seat. Most of the plumbing (truma, water lines etc) are under the bed aft.
you can throw out all the cushions and get 2 pieces of memory foam,one for the back and one to sit on then just put the one from the back next to the one you sit on when you are ready for bed.Just 2 pieces to deal with and not the 10 .
Thank you for the demonstration. Would you be able to answer if someone 5’4” can sleep on just one pulled out. Sleep width way instead of length. I’m scheduled to get mine in 2 months 🤞if all goes well. Thanks.
I was thinking the same thing....One dealer who sells the similar Thor Rize/Scope did a photo demo and she replied no, it would be too short...However as I watched THIS video, I paid careful attention to where he he has just side one pulled out...and I think I could sleep on a diagonal and even use the part of the bed that is not pulled out....Not as easy to convey with words, but I would like to see a 5’4 person lay down on it with only one section pulled out fully...
Greg, thank you for the comment! Yes, we love the topper, the comforter and pillows. Since this video we've done quite a few upgrades. We had the Off Highway Vans 3" lift installed as well as their ride control kit. Handles much better and don't have to worry as much about the low ground clearance. As far as wet bath? Do you have any specific questions? We're going to be releasing our 1 year 40k mile review soon!
@@jotjourneys2943 Thanks for the reply. I added a strap on the sink in the wet bath before we drove it off the dealer lot. Has the plastic toilet held up? Also, how’s the hot water supply for the shower ( minutes of hot H2O). As far as the lift kit-Does that change the warranty in any way?
@@gregbules9652 sorry for the late reply. I need to figure out the notifications. The plastic toilet has held up surprisingly well. The hot water supply is pretty good. We've found that if we set the truma to Boost for 20 minutes then set it to hot, the hot water lasts about 30 minutes. The lift to the best of my knowledge does not change the warranty in any way.
@@gregbules9652 We installed the rear sumosprings after about 3000 miles and really thought they helped with the oscillation when turning and going over speed bumps etc.. The lift helped with the poor clearance with the generator and low rear axle.
I am waiting for a 20K, it's in but there are 2 issues they needed to order parts for. I got the generator version but now I see people complaining about how low to the ground it is. Is it a problem with speed bumps? 3" lifters for the back? How much did that cost? Thanks for the video, subbed
Sorry for the late reply. The generator sits very low. Speed bumps weren't an issue prior to getting the lift. However, backing into a space where there was a curb was a problem. We went to Off Highway Vans for the 3" lift and the ride control kit. We paid around $3,000 out the door. Well worth it! I only wish we had installed it when we took delivery. Hope this helps. You'll love the 20K! We have put on 35,000 miles in 1 year of ownership! We will be making our 1 year review soon. Stay Tuned!
@@jotjourneys2943 with only 3" in the back doesn't it affect the coach being level when on level ground? 👀 Is this something the RV dealer can do before I take delivery? I was thinking I'd be backing into handicapped spots so the front would look like it's sticking out of the spot less. But if the curb in the spot is more of an issue I don't know what I'll do
@@geocacherny7030 honestly I find it easier to level with the lift installed. Not sure your dealer is an authorized installer for the OHV lift. I definitely recommend it as well as the ride control kit. All in about $3k but it’s worth the investment. We had ours installed in SLC at OHV.
We use this one, we love it! www.amazon.com/dp/B004DC1S2K/ref=as_sl_pc_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=membervans-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=fd95ba70199b06da4a2739a1d5487339&creativeASIN=B004DC1S2K
To each their own. I really don't think it is. I spent more time making the bed in my Airstream Interstate than I do with this layout. The video was drawn out to show how it's done. It only takes me 2 minutes for setup and tear down.
It's about time. everybody was failing on making this bed. Thank you so much.
Thank you for the feedback! We thought the same thing. Glad you enjoyed it!

Great video. Just what i was looking for.
Thanks, guys. Very useful.
Great tutorial. Thank you
Wow decent bed
Thank you for watching! It really is! It was the one thing we didn't know would work in this rig. It is basically a queen size!
I do agree it’s the best floor plan. Q: Now that he summer is in full swing, how is the roof AC cooling? Is the AC noisy? Is the van well insulated?

Great Video thanks for sharing how has the quality of the van build been with your Thor Product?
Thank you! Thor isn’t know for quality, however they’ve gotten better. They could improve but overall I’m happy with our current rig.
Thank you for the demonstration.
Would you be able to answer if someone 5’4” can sleep on just one pulled out. Sleep width way instead of length. I’m scheduled to get mine in 2 months 🤞if all goes well. Thanks.
With just one side, I believe so. I can measure next time It's pulled out. Congratulations! You're going to love it!

How come it does not come with curtain between driving cabin and bed from factory? People could see through windshield
It comes with a windshield sunscreen that works fine.
@@jotjourneys2943 The effort and time spent to set up windshield sunscreen VS just one slide of curtain is tremendous and very inconvenient
How many inches wide is the bed after you slide it out?
It's basically a queen. Will measure next time we pull it out.
Is there a difference between sequence and tellaro?
Not really. Minor differences such as interior colors and I think that’s really it.
