Beautiful video! Thanks. I learned a lot. I like the floorplan of the Coachmen Beyond 22RB with the larger bath in the back.

I really enjoyed your video. Thanks so much for sharing. It was a pleasure to watch and learn!

Funny I watch traveling robert also but as a female traveling solo I definitely want something that I can get up and drive away easily if I'm not comfortable, I don't want to have to get out of something that I'm towing into a car or truck to drive away. It is a safety concern. I had a class C that I loved. But I didn't like the fact that I couldn't just drive in town and park next to a restaurant or store or some little shopping area. So now I'm gonna go for a class b.

Thanks I really appreciate you sharing the experiences and how your kids Moved around and how you demonstrate it. Things like the shower and the bed going up-and-down and the mattress topper. Share your experiences really helps.

Thanks for the video. Looks like a good RV for your needs!

Don’t use wd40 on your windows, it will gum up the works. Rub a bar of soap along the tracks. Worked for me.

Thank you both for the great advice!

We have the same year and model of the Coachmen, We added a temperature regulator to our shower which is a game changer. Easy to do yourself and not very expensive

Nice review. How about a review of outside the van next time? We have the Coachmen Beyond also but in the 22D model. Very similar to yours except we have two long benches with access to the back doors. We’re close to 9000 miles after only 3 months! We take our van everywhere including short overnight trips to family members, golf outings, Harvest Host’s overnight boomdockings and vacations. The furthest we’ve gone from Detroit is the upper peninsula for a week. It’s true, these class B’s introduce a lifestyle. Hate the failing drawer clips that I’ll be replacing and the tweaky Firefly connectivity but the Ford Transit with the all wheel drive and dual wheels in the rear is a marvel. I think I surprise other drivers sometimes when how quickly this thing gets up to speed.

It does kind of baffle me that they had those two pillars in the back corner and Coachmen didn't bother to add three-point restraints for at least the outside two rear seating positions. U.S. (and Canadian) RV manufacturers keep getting away with a loophole in the law requiring shoulder belts for car passengers in cars. Even worse are the sideways seating positions like in the 20D. None of these would be legal seating positions in the EU. And I am not picking on Coachmen specifically either. The same is true of most North American motorhome manufacturers. Thanks for the review. I think what she said about travel style is key. If you move a lot, any sort of towable and even larger motorhomes are going to be a tremendous hassle to deal with. I am hopeful that we will start to see some more European-style small class Cs on the U.S. market soon that are about this same length (21'-22') that are almost as parkable as a Class B but offer a little more room inside and some modest outside storage as well.

Great review. Thank you.

Thanks for the review as it is so helpful for us folks considering van life and have subscribed. Funny you mentioning Traveling Robert because he really introduced me to traveling long distance and purchasing our 22-foot Travel Trailer that we tow with a Ford F-250. After retiring and doing a couple of long-distance trips I came to the conclusion that we need to downsize (mostly me) for a number of reasons. At first I was thinking of a smaller what they call B Plus (Ekko or Cross trail 20XG), but lately have been considering Van life for the ultimate in nimbleness. I like the build quality and room of your van, other than the bed length of the 22C (forget the other 2) cuz at nearly 6'3", van life can be a challenge. Also forget the Mercedes and Promaster for me as my head rubs on the ceiling, but the ford is nice for headroom. Question, did you consider either the American Coach Patriot or Pleasure Way 2.2 Ford Transits?

Very awesome review!

Great review....we have the Beyond in the RB model. You could remove the microwave yourself to create the extra storage. I have seen that Coachmen is going to change out the microwave for a microwave, convection, air fryer combo unit on the new ones so that might be an option as it's more versatile.

Love it

Thanks for the review (a couple of years ago). I see you put curtains the back...how come, curiously? Also, do you have a link perhaps for those clever drop-down basket? I'd be interested in some even longer ones. Is that driver seat turned around kinda pointless since the shower is right in front of it?

I enjoyed seeing your home away from home

This is great info, thank you! One of the reasons I'm leaning toward this model is the bed situation, so good to know about a topper and the airflow. Did you add the curtain bar across the back?

Good review

You can cook and bake in the convection microwave! Of course it is necessary! All you’ll have is one induction cooktop. Good luck with that if you’re looking to cook several things at one time.

Which lithium battery do you have? The 600 one or the 300 One?

Tks for sharing your review, very helpful. ? Do you find when driving in windy conditions, or across wide open plains with wind gusts, the van becomes a White knuckle experience to keep it on course? My impressions lead me to consider due to the height and narrow body it could feel like like a sail on a boat.Tks

Great video. I'm new to the Coachman B van. What is your model exactly? I'd like to look it up on the Coachman website. Thanks!

With all of this cold weather how are the Lithium batteries holding up? Do you keep heat on them when the motor home is not being used?

I didn't see the mattress topper you use listed. Would you please list it. Thanks.

Is your van rear wheel drive or awd?

Is that Pam?! You look just like a friend of mine from long ago

😊

What year is your Coachman beyond?. Does your Beyond have the new q foam?

Hello, I live on Long Island and I may be buying a Coachman Beyond very soon, but I don't have a dealer near me. Where did you buy your Beyond in PA?

I really like the features offered in the Beyond, but my primary concern with ANY mainstream RV is build quality and long term reliability. The mainstream RV industry overall is just pathetic when it comes to build quality and given the ever increasing prices of RVs these days, I would be furious if I had my trip ruined by shoddy build quality. A custom build is always an option, but that can get extremely expensive and is not viable for most buyers.

The eggs frying noise in the background is totally annoying.

Thank you for the video. I wish you showed us how the couch become a QS bed.
