- In this video, I travel to Salinas, California to inspect a 2018 Tiffin Allegro Bus for Doug Sewell with Sewell Motorcoach in Harrodsburg, KY. He found a private seller and wanted to make certain the RV was as represented and capable to travel back to Kentucky. So with a small lull and stoppage in work, I was on a plane first thing in the morning. So join me as I show a few more good tips when purchasing a unit and what I liked and did not like about this 2018 Allegro Bus.
Thanks for watching!

Ooooooo, if you tried to bring your whole tool bag on the plane, they would have you bent over, pants down, and inspecting you with flashlight! 😱😝🤪🤣😁👍👍🇺🇲
Thank you James and Doug for taking us along on this trip and inspection. Thought that Spiderman luggage would be yours James. That is an impressive Tiffin Allegro. Happy trails!
Doug Sewell must pay you a great amount in order for you to just put tasks on hold to inspect and deliver a RV to Kentucky
Love the Tiffins, and that one's special; "Blue on Black"
We love our 2015 Tiffin Allegro Bus 37AP but would definitely consider a 40 AP for the additional rear closet room in the future. We can confirm everything that James reflected about how this drives. Most RV folks don't talk fuel mileage because it is usually abysmal but not on our bus. When I purchased it 3 yrs ago with 15K on it , the computer read that the fuel average was 11.2 mpg. I switched to all synthetic fluids and use a fuel additive to increase lubricity and it now reads 11.7 mpg with 35K miles. In a bus that weighs close to 38,000 lbs, this is incredible. The Cummins L9 paired with the Allison 3000 MH is a dream driveline. Enjoy.
Now this Tiffin is really great and if I were in the US now I’d be on my way to view this. Subject to Andrew’s concerns being repaired I’d be keen to go the whole nine yards.
I will contact you Doug before I fly over to check your inventory and hopefully make an appointment.
See you soon Doug and Andrew I can’t wait 😉💫
Thanks James always enjoy your videos. Thanks to Doug for allowing us the go along.
Another Doug Sewell Jewel! Beautiful Tiffin indeed! Thanks for the pre-trip inspection, the trip itself and the final roof and post-detail interior tour. This would be a dandy for someone looking to get into a higher-end production coach. Appreciate your efforts every time James!
Yes, Very high end and cushy. I still tend to like a "Retro" with a well constructed and designed interior. It has more character IMHO. 🧡🧡🧡
Beautiful
👍 looks like Ole Doug runs a good ship . Thanks for another good vid.
That thing will clean up like a shiny penny
Thanks james, I have to say that is 1 nice coach
Another great review James. Thank you for the education on the seamless slides. Wish they kept them. What years did TIffin use them I assume 18-22? Also appreciate so much the review of the slides in while traveling. It is an issue when on long journeys to a snow bird destination. Wal Marts, Cracker Barrels, and truck stops is what we use along with rest areas. Thanks again from another long time subscriber. Very nice coach.
I have a 2015 with them. Seamless Slides® is not a Tiffin product and is probably why Thor did away with procuring them. Thor did upgrade all the slides to hydraulic but wish they would bring back the seamless slides.
Beautiful coach. Thanks guys for sharing it.
Damn, I was hoping the Spider man case was yours!😊
So that's how the other half lives....😅🤣😆😁....Bounder guy here.
Always enjoy fuel cost and mileage.
I can't tell you how much I wanted that Spiderman suitcase to be yours!
Very nice
James, thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos. My Wife and I are huge fans, and never miss them. They're always so informative, and entertaining
Beautiful coach! I can see why you're a Tiffin fan...not as good as a Beaver of course, but pretty nice all the same 😁
Oh...and did anyone else notice the spider on James' ear at the 9 min. Mark? JK🕷
James loved the motorhome ! Tiffin is about about 60 miles from my home town in Jasper, Alabama . I always enjoy your videos . Thanks so much.
We bought our 2018 jayco precept off doug last march, super great staff, we will not buy from anyone else
Nice
Your thoughts on Thor-Tiffin post 2018?
Why did Tiffin sell out to Thor?
Finally, curious if the Big W company has reached out to you?
Real nice coach that's for sure.
Thank you... Not much room going down the road with 6 kids.
James I know you a busy dude but is there anyway you could make a video of the best caulking to use on different things on a camper trailers and rvs man that would be great. Thanks James. Or send it to me personally I really appreciate it. Loyd😊
Great video, Salinas is my hometown.
Beautiful bus!
James, I enjoy your videos. But, wish you would get back to repairs. You have been my go to guy for DIY. With that said I will be resealing the sidewall and end caps on my Tuscany and want to know your recommendation for Sealant (Thor does not offer a Sealant callout sheet)
Wow James your starting to get a few followers cool 😊 keep the videos coming. Thank
With the record rain here in California water damage has been a real problem. Rodent damage will be next years problem with all this vegetation growing now.
No way!!!! If you are ever back in Salinas, please hit me up. I'll buy you dinner.
Looks like Economy RV on Madison. I sandblasted a horse trailer there a few years back.
it was an industrial area and construction yard for heavy equipment. It was beautiful surrounded by the fields!
Thank you. And thanks for not calling it a coach. Definitely a bus.
We full time in a 1997 no slide Foretravel...definitly not fancy but it has light maple full wood cabinets and for its age is a very reliable and well made coach. Perhaps it is me but the interiors of Tiffens are dark (due to wood stain) and look like it might have been designed by Cracker Barrel....Late model Tiffens look very dated with lots of "decorative" touches that seem out of place in a modern vehicle. I guess each to it's own (Newell is the other extreme).
The last clip was great james. i think Joe Biden might be interested in this coach
What ind of Drivers License you need to drive such a RV? AZ, or just GZ.
How much do you charge for an inspection and what part of Arizona are you in?
Great video James! I enjoy the detail to your craft and the pride you show in your work! Do you have a favorite when it comes to the wax for the roof? I have a 2021 Rockwood Ultra Lite 2608 travel trailer and take great pride in keeping it looking great! Keep up the great work!!
Just a wash with wax in it will do
@@AZExpert I also see folks recommending Aerospace 303 treatment for the roof. Do you have an opinion on this James? TY
Berkshire or /Birkshaw/ most of U.K. we would pronounce it as you CORRECTLY said @12:22
Just purchase a 23 Tiffin wayfarer very unhappy with the quality and quality controls sleep at the wheel. Hope they get better. I am very sad with this purchase so many things wrong so many things to fix.
I'm looking at a 2020 Tiffin Wayfarer. I'm really sorry that you're not happy. What have you found?
Great video, beautiful coach, but you never did say what motor it had. Again, great video as always.
isl 450 hp
@@AZExpert Thank you.
@@AZExpert ...with 1,250 foot pounds of awesome torque.
Have you done a video on how your able to run a mobile repair service with a small car? Thanks and great videos!
lts not what you drive , its the knowledge you carry on your shoulders
Geezaloo, it's like your a Monkey hanging from the roof over the sidewalls, lol.
Do you have any recommendations for a class A pre purchase inspector in the Phoenix area?
James lives in Az.
@@terrytinagero777 Phoenix is in Arizona and James lives in the Phoenix area.
👍🏽
How much do you charge for an inspection? We are looking at a Tiffin soon!
Hey James how long have they had that sealed one-piece slide out boxes in the tiffin coaches
What specific inspection for 2006 Gulf stream 8367 model?
What is the factory combo for the closet safe
Where are you located at and do you still do RV inspections? Thanks
Favorite floor plan. Just too rich for my wallet 😊.
Where are you located?? I need an rv inspection in Concord NC?? Are you close or do you recommend anyone?
No solar?
Too bad Tiffin quit doing seemless slides. Know of any other RV manufacturer working with Composite Solutions out of Oregon so they can have them?
no, but if we keep insisting on them, they might be something manufacturers will have to include.
How much $$ did he pick this up for?
What years did Tiffin do seamless slides? I don’t think they have them anymore
they ended them in 2022
@@AZExpert Seamless Slides ® is a product of Composite Solutions, Inc, the same company that makes the True Topper slide toppers (which are pretty cool - no fabric). Edit: Just realized that it was your video that educated me about them LOL. Take care.
@@AZExpert Thanks James. Too bad they ended them, it really set them apart imo. Probably got too expensive or logistic issues.
,I’ve your channel…disappointed you didn’t reply to my email..
dont like it
