We love Newmar! They seem to bend over backwards to help their customers AND we've heard that they will build anything you want.
The Bay Star Sport 2702 is 101.5 inches, which is 8 feet, 5.5 inches. So it is just a hair under 8.5. I agree on the wide footprint. Our Solitude is also wide and that makes me a little nervous.
And hello to you in Texas. Glad you are enjoying our videos. Paul and I hope you are safe and well.
For weekends and short fishing trips it's a good buy
My cousin just bought this same rv used, 2015, with 20k miles. My wife and i own a 2016 Baystar 3403, full bath and a half. I enjoy your videos very much.
We love Newmar! Thanks for your comment- hope to meet you at a campground someday!
It’s always fun to see inside RVs of all sizes. Thanks for the great tour! 😊
Thanks Randi! We love Newmar. The Bay Star Sport is not for us but there just might be a Class A in our future. Thanks for watchinh!
That disco music you’re playing in the background is groovy
Enjoyed your little tour of the RV in Paso Robles. I taught High School there for a couple years before I went back to my regular trade. That's a nice little unit but I'm pretty sure it's not going to come in close to the 32 k for my lightweight cougar 24RDS. Does it have enough towing capacity to put my 55 Chevy on a Featherlite aluminum trailer? I had a V10 Ford. It was more like driving it two-stroke motorcycle then the big block Chevys. If you've had both two and four stroke motorcycles you know what I'm talking about. It is nice and small but that load capacity is quite limiting not a whole lot more than the fifth wheel will be getting. Well it's probably a very nice day in Paso Robles. Thanks for taking your time to do this.
Happy travels.
Yes, Paso Robles is nice! We are also enjoying SLO, took a bike ride from Arroyo Grande to there. Agreed, we are also concerned about the low cargo carrying capacity. Plus, Paul doesn't like gas-powered Class A's. I think it would be good for a first-timer. It's not too intimidating and would be fine for a weekend or short trips. I don't think you could full time in that camper due to the limitations. You really would have to be a minimalist!
I imagine the price to be over 90 grand too. And our little fifth-wheel is 32 K, if we go back to the general area of construction and pick it up. It's an additional $9,000 out here in California. Since we usually head back to New England and then start exploring it would just be a stop along the way. I can load the back of my truck up with things. And maybe even take a U-Haul. Each person has their preferences, however I had quite a bit of experience driving tractor trailers while attending Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo.
A nice Bike Tour could be heading up towards San Luis Obispo and taking Los Osos Valley Road, that has enough area along the road to ride a bike to Montana De Oro State Park . You would go right by our town of Baywood Park and Los Osos and Cuesta by the sea. I think I had mentioned to you and or Paul that we bought our first house there and they would park.
Yep, MSRP on the Bay Star 2702 is around $127,000 I think. You could probably get it for just under $100k. Of course, if the Rv market gets sluggish, it might get cheaper.
We agree that you can get a lot more for your money with a fifth wheel. The Fed-Ex guy who delivered my replacement bike mentioned that exact ride! We took a drive out to Morro Bay and had a lovely time just outside of town on the north side. Then we discovered Spencer's Market-- love that place! We will have to take the bikes next time.
It's a beautiful part of the country for sure! Happy birthday to Cindy!
Love the 2702 floorplan, just wish it had better ext. storage & 50amp/55KOnan boondocking capability that most Class A's are expected to provide, even 'entry level' Class A's.
Wow! That is one pretty rig! Still too big for me to feel comfortable driving. I agree with Oaul about the electric controls being in the bathroom ..... scary! But I appreciate the fact that it is gas and not diesel. Would I buy it? Not as a solo RVer as I wouldn't be comfortable driving that big of a rig. If I had a partner to drive, who didn't take up too much of the closet space, then yes! Live the quality cabinetry and ine thing you didn't point out that I noticed was the central vacuum......that would be a great bonus to have! I believe you guys have it in your rig. Thanks for the great review!
Hi Rosemary! Yes, that's a good point about the central vacuum- and we do love it on ours. Can't get over all the nice little touches in the Bay Star Sport 2702. We think it's ideal for short trips and has such a nice layout. Agreed that is can be a tad big for a solo traveler. Thanks for you comment.
Someone looking at a large Class B needs to consider what 5’ extra can provide! Love all the high-end features like full body paint, premium cabinetry and full sized tanks. All it really needs is one of those baby diesels up front. Can you say 20+ mpg? Do you happen to know who built the drivers drink holder that turns into a desk? Very slick. Would love to add one of those to my coach!
Yeah that table is pretty neat. I’m surw it’s an in-house item as Newmar is pretty big.
We love Newmar! And I used to have a camper van so I totally get how going a little bit bigger makes a world of difference. Thanks for watching!
Not a bad little RV, interior is very nice. Love the paint outside. Great job on the review!👍🏻
Thanks so much! We love the Bay Star Sport, and Newmar in general.
Thanks for the tour! Nice entry level Newmar, I think it would work well for a couple who wants to travel comfortably.
We think so, too! Ideal for weekends and short trips.
I don’t have an RV. If I was going to get one this is the one I would get. No doubt about it.
Thanks for saying this! I am on my 8th camper and I do believe this Bay Star Sport is the perfect 1st camper.
Rv life is really great- I hope you get to try it someday.
Is there a real advantage to motorhomes, vs truck + trailer setup? I think especially for those who like to sit still in one spot, having a truck to go out and get supplies without having to break camp would be better, but maybe if you're the type to be constantly on the move then this is just easier? Great review though!
Great question! Motorhomes are a quicker setup and tear down. Most fulltimers with motorcoaches tow a small car so their gas costs while camping are reasonable. We have a fifth wheel so when we are camped and make trips we are using diesel and not getting as good economy on our pickup as a small car. Our next camper will likely be a Class A.
I do think this Bay Star Sport 2702 would be best for those new to Rving who want try out the life for weekends and short trips. Although you can tow with this, I would not advise it because the tongue weight is deducted from the already modest cargo carrying capacity.
Thanks for your comment!
Thank you! Great review. We have been shopping and this will be our first RV. Another one to add to our list! Nice to see quality in a smaller gas coach!
Our pleasure! So glad this video helped. We love the Bay Star Sport 2702. Good quality, nimble and -- Newmar!
New to your channel. Nice tour. Like the pic of your truck RV. We are starting out with a small version. 1998 Class C only 20ft. We are loving it.
That's awesome about your Class C. I fulltimed in a 21' camper van for six months. It CAN be done! Congrats on your new channel-- looks like fun. And welcome to the A-Team!
Beautiful rig! Gotta love small rigs that you can take lots of places!
You got that right! The Bay Star Sport is the perfect rig for first-time Rv-ers, we think. We sure love that back window! Be safe and happy travels-- WHEN you can travel again!
Liz your first RV - wicked! Great video and tour Liz and Paul... So, are you considering a Class A for your next rig?
Thanks for watching! We love our new fifth wheel. Something about a Class A though really compels us: they seem so nimble. We love Newmar. Next time we will go for it!
I liked this one. Definitely agreed about the bathroom.
The bedroom storage amazing. So how expensive was this one
It's MSRP is $127,000 so it could probably be purchased for just over $100,000. We love the Newmar products but definitely not impressed with the fuse box location! It is a great length and would be very useful for weekenders and people taking short trips.
@@LizAmazing That's a amazing price Liz!!!! You are correct about the fuse box!!! I thought this motorhome was beautiful also.
Good review, I agree about the electric box in the bathroom...kind of strange. Good space but looks tight when slides are in. We like to have a bit more room when slides in but a nice options for a smaller class A.
Yes, the dinette is a squeeze but the kitchen and sofa are easy to enjoy when going down the road. Paul, especially, does not approve of that fuse box! We do think the Bay Sport 2702 is a good option for a small Class A-- especially if you like a back window. Thanks for watching.
nice, but I'm in that truck camper category
Liz's old truck camper is like the one Paradise on Pennies use.
Yep. Having a truck camper made for some nimble traveling for sure! I'll have to check out the Paradise on Pennies channel, sounds interesting.
Cool watching your channel grow ... very nice job guys!!
Thanks so much! We are amazed and honored by the growth of our channel. Stay tuned....
Wow your channel has exploded. I remember when we connected after you first started. Congrats! We love Newmar. We have the 3921 Toyhauler.
Hi there! Yes, see this is what happened after I broke my hand and Paul entered the picture! We are super-happy with how quickly the channel has grown. Thanks for checking in. And YES, we love the Newmar. We want a Class A someday and we hope it will be either a Newmar, hopefully the New Aire.
I did not know that Newmar makes a toy hauler! Wow! We might need to check those out as it would be safe place for us to store our ebikes.
Take care and be safe.
Really like the functionality. Don't care for some of the quality of material I think I was viewing. I would not be able to accept vinyl flooring at how much that charge for these motorhomes. Likely could come up with a moisture seal for the utility door in the bath. These units seem to all be built for a remodel every 10 years. Some of this stuff folks like Paul and I see drive us crazy. But as we get older we can more easily just let it go because we are done building everything ourselves LOL
Good point about the vinyl flooring. Vinyl plank is an upgrade, I should have mentioned that. I was just talking with Paul about the bathroom fuse box, maybe to put weatherstripping there. Can't believe that got approved in the first place.
Overall, though, we love Newmar and would love to get one some day. We think this Class A is a perfect entry level for someone new to Rving.
And if Paul still had a garage I think he'd still be building stuff!
The quality of the Baystar is excellent, you must not have actually been in a Baystar to say that. We have a Bsystar 3403 w 1 1/2 baths. Excellent craftsmanship !
Paul has a dignified shirt today - I like your style bro
He sure looks good to me!
Thanks for the great review- I still don’t know what we want to get - thanks for sharing- how much is a good question 🍻
How much YOU want to spend- or how much is the Bay Star Sport? This rig is $127,000 MSRP, could probably get it for just over $100k.
Of course, the most challenging question is how much to spend on your next Rv???? You truly can find a rig at any price point.
Don’t skimp on things that will bother you on a daily basis and are not an easy fix. So avoid cheap insulation, cramped floorplans, tiny kitchens.
Thanks for your comment Ed. Let us know what you end up with.
Hey guys, love the bay sport - Newmar is my FAV RV - are you planning on buying one and selling the 5TH wheeler ? - Lance from Canada
We love-love-love the Newmar! We very much wanted to buy one but couldn't make the numbers work. The next Rv will definitely be a Class A.
@@LizAmazing well you picked the right RV - Newmar is considered to be the VERY best class A RV, however, if you ever decide on a class C, check out the Lazy Daze class C RV from Montclair, California (www.lazydaze.com/) -considered to be the best class C built motor-home in North America, period!!! - Lance from Canada
I've heard good things about Lazy Daze class C's. I've owned two of Class C's- they are a good value and it seems you always get a ton of storage.
@@LizAmazing Yes Lazy Dave RVs are built like a tank - Been watching your channel for several months now. Just wanted to let you know, my new RV living TH-cam channel went up officially last night. We only
have a few videos for now, but hope to get more up in the future. Our channel is called “Boondocking With Boomer” Wait to you see who Boomer really is. We are at...th-cam.com/channels/LT0K7fGRye3d5HPrOUf-YA.html Please Subscribe, Comment, and click on the that Bell. Bye for now - Lance from Canada.
Thanks for the tour. Good job!
Thank you! We love Newmar. We think the Bay Sport 2702 would be perfect for a first time Class A buyer. However, we really like the New Aire. Paul says to me: dream on! We both agree Newmar makes a good product. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Sorry to mention this, but you cannot use computer on that passenger tray table when in motion. Computer will disrupt the view of right side mirror. Unlike front mounted gas engines, you could on diesel pushers since mirror is out front and viewed through windshield. But this RV is gas. Sorry.
Wow, that is so great to know. Thanks so much. I would not have realized that about the computer blocking the view of the mirror. If/when we get a Class A, we will get a diesel pusher for sure. Is that true of all gas versus diesel engines that the mirrors are on the side with gas and out front with diesel? Really interesting tidbit-- thanks again!!!
I do wish you would include a base price
Oh, sorry. The price and the specs are in the description. It's $127,000 MSRP. We love the Bay Star Sport and think it's a good entry-level Class A. Happy RV shopping to you!
Good review! I like the size 👍
Me too! Newmar makes a great product. When we get a Class A, it will likely be one of theirs. We also like the New Aire, here's our tour of it: th-cam.com/video/7QtRYPBUJnE/w-d-xo.html
The one big question everyone always has is the price. Please be sure to give it in any future RV reviews.
That’s a great point- thank you! This one is MSRP $127k, could be had for about $100, I’m thinking.
@@LizAmazing Thank you. But if MSRP is $127k, then I would think it could probably be had for closer to $80-85k by a good negotiator. Regardless, that is a very nice coach for that MSRP level. A Newmar with full-body paint no less. That is what the MSRP was on my 29' A.C.E.
Certainly, a beautiful well planned R.V. Would I buy a new one? No way, there are always so many used ones in great condition with very low mileage on the market, for a fraction of the original price, it would be insanity to do so.
We agree! We sure tempted with Newmar though. I think if we won the lottery we would buy a new Newmar Class A for sure. This one is our favorite: th-cam.com/video/7QtRYPBUJnE/w-d-xo.html
I guess I fall on the other side. We are currently on our 4th RV. (all Travel Trailers) all 4 were purchased new. Here's the one we have now. th-cam.com/video/dbjid6bk5xg/w-d-xo.html and here's the one we traded in: th-cam.com/video/tVGjQlO4XC4/w-d-xo.html we like them new and we like keeping them new. Nothing insane about that.
yes LOVE IT
We love anything Newmar puts out. If we win the lottery we are getting one for sure!
The Rachael Ray and Guy Fieri of the RV world . . . . .
That's good! Thanks for giving us a chuckle.
While you did an excellent job with this review; and it is amazing for under 28’, I didn’t see a TV in the living area- looked it up in Newmar’s website- over the cab??? You can’t watch it from the couch. Bad idea- wouldn’t consider unless that problem can be addressed by Newmar
Good catch! Yes, for some reason I missed it and only showed a corner of it where it is - yep- over the dash.
I agree that is not an ideal location. I think the Bay Star Sport 2702 is designed to be a weekender- so presumably tv would not be a high priority.
Thanks again for your comment!
Hey guys! Great video! You make fun salesmen for the RV business; I'd buy what your selling. . But i prefer you both as friends!! Art W. TN.
We agree! I actually would love to be in Rv sales! In fact, if I weren't traveling, that's exactly what I would do. I've owned 8 of them now and I think I could help all kinds of campers from newbies to seasoned travelers.
Of course, now with the Covid, I am not sure how many people are buying. Sky River Rv (where this video was shot) told us that everything is on hold for now.
I hope you continue to be safe and well.
@@LizAmazing God Bless you and Paul. Really try to enjoy each other and whatever you can about our GREAT country. Time is limited here....
It truly is. Life goes by so fast. Gotta savor each moment. Thanks for the reminder.
I'm hoping I didn't miss your new RV?
Thanks for asking. Here's a link to our new rig. And if you ring the bell you won't miss anything! :-) Thanks for watching and commenting.
Our new Solitude Fifth Wheel: th-cam.com/video/aJBzbsDXRII/w-d-xo.html
Nice looking from the outside with the full body paint. Not liking the electric in bathroom at all! What if you had grandkids traveling with you!! 😱
I think it would be an Ok motorhome to have the grandkids visit. BUT you'd have to be sure everyone used the roof van during/after showering. Even then, Paul does not approve of moisture so close to the electrical. We love Newmar-- not sure how this got past their team. Thanks for watching and commenting.
You may want to try Lolo's Mexican food in Cayucos.
Good plan-- thank you!
It’s nice,but that’s not much carrying weight! I bet the towing weight isn’t much either. And I am not a fan of the power being in the bathroom either !!
Hi Don. Agreed on all points. It has a 5000 pound towing capacity and so 500 pounds tongue weight comes out of that carrying weight number. I think the Bay Star Sport 2702 is well-suited for first timer just going for weekends or short trips. Not towing another vehicle and not packing it to the gills.
That fusebox in the bathroom sure had Paul scratching his head! Not a good idea for sure. Thanks for watching and for your comment.
so cool
Thank you. We love Newmar-- they really are a quality Rv manufacturer. And we think the Bay Star Sport would be a good choice for a first-time Rver. Not too big but still a clever floorplan that makes it feel roomy.
We have a new Super C with two slides I love Fifth Wheelers I just love them but my daughter can't handle a Lonnie and I understand that but I would love to have one and we're also looking at property what we have our home out in the country I made by mrs. Swelling just living it so I could just by myself machine have the house to herself. How about that. That's what I'd like to do
Well I enjoyed being solo, was solo a year before meeting Paul. Your new Super C sounds lovely!
How much is it? You left out the most important part.
You are so right! It’s $127k MSRP so you could probably get it for about $100k.
No. The electrical panel should not be in the bathroom.
Agreed!
Never understood why Newmar uses the lower hp v-10 engine. Makes no sense.
Good news-- they are switching to the V8 in 2021. I think that has more hp. We do love Newmar but wish there were a way to get a diesel pusher AND have a back window!
love you
Love you! Thanks for watching! Be safe.
Thanks. Like #178
Thanks for being like #178! We love the Bay Star Sport-- can't get over that fuse box though.
you guys keep viewing motor homes i notice; are u wanting one? they are expensive to buy; depreciate like crazy; and expensive to fix. im wanting a fifth wheel when i get an rv...very reasonable used; good towing and not to expensive to fix or maintain.. but i need sliding windows to have enough air no angle out windows for me; we had a house that had angle out windows once we HATED THEM as u dont get hardly any airflow very nasty in summer, never again...
Hi Lauren! I think our next camper is going to be a class A for sure. We love the Bay Star Sport- for a weekender. And actually the New Aire if we won the lottery!
We did just buy a fifth wheel and love it. Class A’s are just so nimble with such easy setup. Plus the more economical tow car. So it is definitely something we want to try next time around.
Our new Solitude is our first camper with crank out windows. I thought the same thing with ventilation. We find they crank out pretty far and allow good airflow. Plus you can use them on rainy. We were quite pleasantly surprised.
@@LizAmazing well your windows sound better than those horrid house windows i had. have you driven a class A? they are called the white knuckle rv for a reason eh!! in heavy traffic or freeways with strong winds or sudden gusts can be very traumatic; you need to drive one in wind before you buy one, r u still at the same place with hookups? hope they stay open! im getting fed up with this stay home crap. I go into stores with a mask n gloves; went to a pizza birthday dinner in my sons garage with open big garage door; they sat on one side we sat on the other side about 15 ft apart; went just fine; we wore gloves. playing pickleball in my friends big double garage with doors open; wore gloves and we disinfected the gloves and the ball and kept our distance. went fine. just keep your distance...
I haven't driven a Class A. Someone told me that they are like driving a bar of soap down the road. But THEN someone else told me that's the way they used to be. They are (apparently) a dream to drive now. We have lots of Class A owners here at the campground and they all seem pretty pleased.
I had a mask in the cargo storage from when I used to do mosaic work back when I had a house. I thought it would be useful when touching up with spray paint. Turns out is an N-99 mask-- better than even an N95. Not wearing gloves but I am wearing that to the store. We rarely go though. Just sitting.
Like you, Paul and I are ready to get back on the road. BUT we want to wait until it's safe. Glad you are playing it safe, too!
@@LizAmazing well before CV ever showed its nasty little face in north america I was a germphobe anyways so wearing a mask n gloves is not that hard for me. but my friends complain they cant breathe; they look weird with it on; doesnt fit right; blah blah blah whine whine whine...and I say OH OK! would you rather inhale the virus when you go to the store? no answer, well DUH!! frustrates me they have that whiny attitude; I just mask up n shut up ie no whining from me eh.... you really need to drive and park and maneuver a MH before you buy one im thinking...unless you want paul to do all the driving; but in an emergency you need to know how to drive it methinks. my hubby towed our boat but i insisted i learn how to tow and park it and launch it by myself also in case of an emergency. it was about 30 ft boat. dont stay home too much just mask up glove up n keep 6ft away...works fine!
True! I always want to be a team player so I will for sure learn to drive whatever we get.
As it turns out I have an N99 mask (4% better than an N99) for when I am spray painting. It’s a couple years old but lucky to have it. I wear it when out, but staying home almost always.
Be safe!
It would be good for 1 person..
I think so! My fridge was the same size when I fulltimed in my camper van. I think it would be harder with two people. Unless it was just for weekends. We love Newmar! Thanks for watching and for your comment.
@@ChopperChad true but I love our space in our 5th wheel..
Why? Why the switch? From sharing your journey to RV reviews? I’m disappointed, real disappointed.
Don’t worry- most of our videos will continue to be about our journey. Thanks for your comment!
