Hey y'all! We hope you enjoyed this tour of the Tiffin Motorhomes Factory. This is just a small piece of what we saw over the hour and a half (or so) tour. Definitely check it out when you're around Red Bay, Alabama. We always enjoy factory tours. We'll be posting our video on the Tiffin paint factory tour in Belmont, MS in a future video. So be sure to watch for that. In the meantime, stay safe out there! We'll see you Wednesday!
I was their back in 1987 getting some work done, and I wanted a tour and they told me go ahead and start looking around. At that time I stayed in the RV while they worked on it overnight
Good Morning Y'all ☕️! With my engineering background, the manufacturing aspect has always fascinated me since I was little kid and Tiffin makes it look so easy "putting together" the pieces that will eventually become a home on wheels! The view from the I-10 bridge over the Mississippi River there in Baton Rouge is always meismerising with the tall Louisiana capitol building to the north and the LSU stadium to the south. And, yes, the traffic congestion is there too every time we travel that way regardless of the time of day 😂! Stay Safe and Happy Trails!
Thanks Ben! We’re with you on both counts. It all looked so easy, and we always love crossing that bridge. Sometimes there are some huge barges and cargo ships down below. Stay safe!
Great presentation! It was wonderful to have a tour of the Tiffin factory without having to travel down to their location. Onto the Paint Factory tour. Best, Steve & Deb from Western Mass.
We love factory tours of any kind. I am looking forward to you video of the paint facility tour. I used to own a powder coating company back in the day. Gonna be great weather back in Texas this week.....Howard and Betty
A great video...... You guys stay safe with the virus... Glad you guys are having fun. Im in S. Calif. It is crazy here. My co. Shut down their office. Ilive and work on co. Property in my travel trailer with my 2 lil dogs and bird. I work night security 7 nights a week and holidays. 118 hrs. A week. I am so blessed to still be working. So may co.s shut down here. I am now suporting 3 families. Me and my 2 daughters and their families. My daughter and her family that lived in Abilene Tx. They just bought 15 acres in S. Mo. They just moved there and are living in a travel trailer on the property. We ae to shelter in herr in S. Cal. And go out as little as possible. So I am prepared to stay in my trailer here on the property for the next month or longer except go to my p.o. box to pick up mail and packages. I have ordered a portable washer and spin dryer and clothes rack so I can do laundry here. You guys stay safe and healthy........ Love you
This was fascinating, thanks for taking us on a tour of something I never knew I wanted to see. Now I want to see all the RV plants and how they build 'em. Thanks y'all
Pleasure to meet you on the tour Tom & Stacie. Enjoyed walking through all of the new rigs with you in Red Bay. The tour was great in seeing how these beautiful RVs are made. But also seeing the evolution from that '76 Allegro was pretty impressive. Hopefully next time I'll get a chance to meet your dog. Happy travels and I look forward to seeing your journeys here.
Thank you for this video. Great plant tour. Looking forward to your Belmont plant tour video. Nice that you were able to show us the finished product. Yes, that Java is a nice color. Shows up well in the poor light. Nice that the interior was lit up as well. Please, keep posting the interesting content.
@@rvamericayall Yes - it is an exciting look into very recent operations at Red Bay. Since, Tiffin is taking a break, the video gives folks who had a tour planned, a current view of what the hard working folks do to build Tiffin Motorhomes. I'll have to check out WIW to see if you have additional insight on current conditions for Tiffin service, the Red Bay extended service network, and Tiffin owners/rigs. Really appreciate your information.
And now the rest off the story. The 2020 Breeze you toured in this vedio is the coach we ordered through Sherman RV. Rosebud is now safely tucked in for a long Covid stay here in Sunny CA where the tornados and hail can't get her. It is also interesting to note that your 2017 was one that we seriously considered purchasing before we talked ourselves out of that plan. We really were not ready to make the commitment. It took another long trip in the AS and a tour of the Tiffin factory along with excellent pricing from Andy at Sherman RV to get us moving on a new Breeze. That ISB 340 sealed the deal to make the 33BR viable. Your video saw us through a very tough period. Thank you very much for sharing.
Ha ha! Naked motorhome chassis! :D So cool. I wish I could see my motorhome's chassis, sometimes, but it's probably still very similar, even 25 years later and a Winnebago! :) I loved seeing the wood-bending. The different flooring being installed in different factories was interesting. Thank you so much for sharing this tour! :) Do you go through your Breeze, now, and say, "Hey! Remember when they installed a bedroom slide with those cranes?!" That's what I would do.
Thanks Jody! We always enjoy factory tours. We've taken tours at Thor Diesel, Newmar, Winnebago and Regency RV. We had great access like this at Newmar, but Tiffin and Regency were the only ones that let us film so that we could share the experience.
We took the Newmar factory tour where our motorhome was born. The Tiffin factory is very similar it looks like. Were the coaches on air pods so they could be moved easily? That was fascinating to us. It took only two guys to push a motorhome sideways to the next assembly area. Thanks for the tour. Stay safe and healthy.
We are due in Red Bay tomorrow. We will have some warranty work performed. Unfortunately the list is a little longer than expected. The tours have been cancelled due to the virus so that will be on our list next visit.
Thank you for sharing the tour.. I can't wait to take the tour to see how my 2020 Allegro was made. I had planned to do it this May but might have to push it back until September.. Hopefully by then, we will be out of the woods on this virus situation. Keep up the good work!!!!
Wow! thats how they can maximize profits by making their own lumber! brilliant! I grew up in the country. I would have loved to see that.. I love the smell
Thanks Brent! The first owner of our motorhome put the seat covers on. They are by Aegis. We have a link to Aegis on this page of our website if you'd like more info: rvtexasyall.com/rv-lifestyle/rvtexasyall-faqs-2018-08. We also have the Aegis link in the video description of that video if it's easier just to jump over within TH-cam: th-cam.com/video/zN6UVvOx0_k/w-d-xo.html .
Hi Jan. The Tiffin Service Center will cover warranty work for a year. They will also provide a huge range of service to all Tiffins under 4 years old for extremely reasonable costs (in our experience). Tiffins between 4 and 10 years old have access to Tiffin Express Bays where you have 2 techs for 3 hours. Red Bay and the entire surrounding area is full of independent companies who perform all kinds of work on motorhomes. Most were (or still are) trained and employed by Tiffin.
When you got to the wiring section, that's where I would have gotten thrown out. I am really disappointed in the wiring of our 2019 Open Road, they need to slow down and do a better job on the wiring. We are waiting now to get in into the dealer for repairs on wiring issues and other things. We love our coach but wish they would have done better on certain things.
Sorry to hear about that, Ed. If at all possible, we highly recommend making the trip to Red Bay to have Tiffin do the work directly. We had a fantastic experience with their service. And everyone we met there was very pleased with the work they got at the service center.
Hi, love the channel. Possibly a little advice. I had a real hard time watching the video because of the movement of the camera. I get dizzy easily and this was one of those times. Thank you for the great content though. Brian
We FT in a 2010 Phaeton and were able to watch our coach being built. We've taken the factory tour several times thru the years. With that being said, my prediction is that the factory tours are a thing of the past. Really too bad.
Appalling. To my eyes that factory is a dump and a blatant health hazard by comparison to European standards which are lightyears ahead. Cannot believe Tiffen operate like this and are even inviting customers to see it.

Great Job guys - enjoy your Tiffin! Mike

Stay safe Annamay! We're glad we were able to take the tours before all of this started happening.
This was fascinating, thanks for taking us on a tour of something I never knew I wanted to see. Now I want to see all the RV plants and how they build 'em. Thanks y'all
Glad you enjoyed it. We've toured several RV plants and each one is unique. Always fascinating!
No you don't, you'll be appalled if you watch them slap together Keystones.
Pleasure to meet you on the tour Tom & Stacie. Enjoyed walking through all of the new rigs with you in Red Bay. The tour was great in seeing how these beautiful RVs are made.

Hey Mark! Hope you’re doing well. We enjoyed exploring the rigs with you also. We look forward to crossing paths again soon. Safe travels!

Do you go through your Breeze, now, and say, "Hey! Remember when they installed a bedroom slide with those cranes?!" That's what I would do.
Hi Jami! Glad you enjoyed the tour. We thought it was super fascinating. We definitely look at the slides a bit differently now. :)
I’m not getting a Tiffin but it was still really cool to see how a motorhome was made and you two did a great job of explaining as you toured. 👍🏻
Thanks Jody! We always enjoy factory tours. We've taken tours at Thor Diesel, Newmar, Winnebago and Regency RV. We had great access like this at Newmar, but Tiffin and Regency were the only ones that let us film so that we could share the experience.

We were amazed by that at Newmar also, Don. We wish we could have filmed that! At Tiffin, they drive down the line. Stay safe!
Looks a little chilly in Red Bay!
Depended on the day, Jim. Some days 60, some 77. :)
Thank you for the video. I have an Uncle who has worked there for years. Nice to see a little of what he does as an assembler.
We were really impressed by the tour, John.
Thanks Guys great job safe travels enjoy all your videos be careful out there 👍🙏🏼🙏🏼🐶
Thanks Ronnie! 😁😁 🐶
Thanks for the tour. Was really interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it Norman. We agree.
Loved this one. THanks! Happy travels
Thanks Tim!
Looks like a nice tour. I have a cousin that lives in Red Bay.
We really enjoyed the tour and our time in Red Bay.
Nice video, you have a way of keeping it real.
Thanks Stephen! We really appreciate it.
Most popular rice alum? My boy Tommy Kramer!
Yes sir! BTW did you know John Heisman (namesake of the Heisman Trophy) coached at Rice?
That’s quite impressive! Your coach is beautiful, as well. It puts my 17 foot Casita to shame! Lol ❤️❤️
Thanks Judy! We love the Casitas too! #madeintx
We are due in Red Bay tomorrow. We will have some warranty work performed. Unfortunately the list is a little longer than expected. The tours have been cancelled due to the virus so that will be on our list next visit.
They’ll take care of y’all. We are very happy with the work we had done there.
very nice thank ya'll
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing the tour.. I can't wait to take the tour to see how my 2020 Allegro was made. I had planned to do it this May but might have to push it back until September.. Hopefully by then, we will be out of the woods on this virus situation. Keep up the good work!!!!
Thanks! Hopefully things can get back to normal soon. The tour is great!
Excellent vid guys.
Thanks!
Nice video
Thanks
Wow! thats how they can maximize profits by making their own lumber! brilliant! I grew up in the country. I would have loved to see that.. I love the smell
It smelled awesome!
I wish you would have spoken about what medium is used for walls and roof, and if they use aluminum studs.
Thanks for the feedback Michael.
Great Video. Always enjoy you videos 2 x a week. Where did you get you seat covers for the driver and passenger
Thanks Brent! The first owner of our motorhome put the seat covers on. They are by Aegis.

RV Texas Y'all thank you so much
You're very welcome.
Now I understand why they have so many issues.
hope youareboth doing well with all this crazyness stay safe and healthy
Thanks Allan! You too!
So when you go to Tiffin for them to fix things. What is the cost involved? How does that all play out?
Hi Jan. The Tiffin Service Center will cover warranty work for a year.

That is too bad. It was so interesting.
👍👍
😁
Bob doesn't like firearms , Interesting
I'll just stick with my Newell. Tiffins are just plastic and foam boxes with fancy interiors. Junk
Appalling. To my eyes that factory is a dump and a blatant health hazard by comparison to European standards which are lightyears ahead. Cannot believe Tiffen operate like this and are even inviting customers to see it.
