And NOOOO jazz hands!! And NOOOO 'it's great! It's grand! Everything is butterflies & unicorns!! Just give me an unbiased it is what it is presentation. I REALLY appreciate you giving measurements, not just 'a queen/full sized' because a queen/full is NOT the same for all rigs. I like the north south bed. Even though not a walk around, still decent space to get up w/o making hubs rearrange. For the kitchen, it's very nice. (We could do w north south double burner just for little extra counter space. If the oven weren't an option, I'd look for a micro convection maybe. LOVE the fridge size. Thanks also for the shower measurements! Hubs is 6'4" so that's GREAT! I would like a little 'lip' on the shower shelves (even at home, truthfully) to keep stuff from falling. Also love that it's NOT a wet bath. I just don't like everything getting wet. Great presentation! ~Best to you and safe travels! 🚐☁️☁️

Thank you! Beds and bathrooms usually take the sacrifice for sure. Hoping the MSRP on RVs start coming down a bit faster. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

Unfortunately storage space is lacking to add a washer/dryer. You typically find them in larger motorhomes. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

You can get a new Geneva 22VT for less than $90k. It is basically the least expensive Class C available. A little research goes a long way. Good informative video. Thank you!

You're not wrong. The lack of an upper cab bunk used to be an indicator of a Class B+ vs Class C RV. Recently we've noticed the definition is a bit blurred and reflects more on the chassis. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

We didn't really care for the bed in the GS BT Cruiser either. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

We include the GVWR and GCWR unfortunately the manufacturers do not provide the UVW on their website to know where to begin.

@@penelopebartell840 yes, sometimes you can find that data there. Not always but sometimes.

Not too bad for under 25' and no slide outs! Thanks Kim!

That would be the one with a twin bed? We haven't had the pleasure of seeing that one in person, but we have heard good things about the construction of Leisure. Wish the garage had a 3rd rear garage door like the Granite Ridge but love that Leisure Wonder has a dry bath and not a wet bath like the Jayco.

Thank you so much! We appreciate your support. We have seem dual recliner/theater seating in Class C and B+ motorhomes but not independent separate recliners. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

@@RVBlogger thanks for the quick response and letting me know it is an option. Do you have one you could let me know about (don’t need separate recliners, one or the small sofa type is fine). Doesn’t matter the size of the RV I just haven’t seen a non slide with recliner/sofa. Thanks again!

@@Humble-Engine I don't seem to see anything in our inventory that fit that criteria. I think it might be difficult to find recliners or theater seating in a motorhome without slide outs. But that's not to say a manufacturer couldn't swap out a sofa for theater seating, as long the recliner part can work comfortably in a smaller living space. I'll keep a lookout though.

@@RVBlogger You are awesome thank you for confirming that as I have looked high and low with nothing. With all of your knowledge and insight I trust your opinion on this and hope that with some inquiry on this, it will spark a manufacture to start a new model trend. Removal of the dinette was such a big deal or at least reimagined the dinette area was a huge. Reclining inside on a rainy day a good medicine. Thanks for your time.

@@Humble-Engine not quite the awesome reclining theatre seats we had in our Thor 24RW but the Jayco Melbourne Prestige 24NP/Entegra Qwest 24N fit the no slides bill for us and it has an L shaped sofa in the back that we like to lounge on. We have a storage ottoman for a foot and leg rest and can curl up on the corner of the sofa quite comfortably with a couple of pillows. We love not having slides. Good luck in your search.

The MSRP on these motorhomes are still a bit too high. I'd be curious of the actual sales price. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

I didn't measure the height from the ground to the bottom of the driver door so I'm not sure how tall it is. I don't even know where you could find that spec. With a hitch weight of 7,000 lbs or more I'm sure these could handle your power lift chair. Thanks for watching! Mike

We agree! Susan had me install a soad dispenser for our liquid soap shampoo and conditioner and a shelf to hold razors shaving cream etc. Why can't this just be built into the shower? Probably because the manufacturers don't want to have to spend a dime more than necessary. Thanks for watching! Mike

@@meganashlea thank you for sharing your experience! We’ve had to bring our mirrors in a few times 😬😂

It is very important for buyers to be well informed about the quality construction of an item with such a high price tag. Like buying a house or a car, you have to do research on customer and manufacturer reviews before making a sale. Many RV manufacturers have been lacking in construction and customer service over the last few years. Their attempt to keep up with customer demand (and greed) has hurt reputations. Our channel has always been dedicated to bringing floor plan options and features to our viewers. There are a lot of great channels out there that will uncover fraud, deception and poor manufacturer concerns and we are grateful they are out there doing this. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

The first motorhome was a Thor Geneva 22VT. The MSRP is located at the beginning of the video in the full screen graphics. That is not the sales price.

We understand the concern for shower size. Smaller RV showers suffer from shrinkflation🤣 to make everything fit! I'd rather lose the sink (I know that's dangerous territory for some) and have a dry bath or larger shower. Thanks Erin!

Hi Logan, It depends where you live and what you will be doing with your RV. We had Geico and now Nationwide for our Class C RV and the prices form both are about the same at $500 a year. However, if you plan to rent out your RV none of the traditional insurance companies will insure your rig. If you plan to rent it out I would recommend Roamly and you can get a free quote from them at goto.rvblogger.com/Roamly. If you live in MD, VA, DE, DC, NY or PA you could call my son-in-law and he can insure your cars, house, and your RV. Let me know if you want his info and I'll pass that along privately. Thanks and all the best! Mike

At the same time quality is at new lows.

The value of the dollar has plummeted over the years.

@@geod3589 I don’t think “plummeting” means what you think it means. Has it lost value? Sure. But if you think these things were affordable 5 years ago, I would have to disagree.

@@RVBlogger Most reviewers mention the A/C manufacturer/model, since some are more efficient than others and certainly are quieter than others. I don't think I like the coach A/C being right over the beds. Also, there is no mention of 3 or 4 season usability and insulation level. Otherwise, a good design. And love the fact that you actually measure things.

Are you familiar with Josh the RV nerd? He has done several like that, explaining the pros and cons of each slide type. Keep in mind there’s a LOT of people who want no slides at all, just because they break and are not cheap to repair. 😊

@@Erin-ThorIll check him out. Thanks!

@@jellybryce7742 - I’m sure Josh isn’t the only one, a KZfaq search will show a bunch I’m sure! There’s also an RV inspection channel that covers this too.

We haven't made a video about that content. I do believe it has become an accepted liability for more space. Some slide outs are better than others and some are doomed because the slide out is truly too big for the motor. Schwintek being the worst for that! Josh is definitely able to provide more information and a better understanding of slide out problems being at a dealership and seeing these issues from the maintenance perspective.

We have to agree with you. Was not a fan of the floor plan but was impressed with the size at under 23' and appreciated the dry bath. Thanks Gigi!

We do...we have graphics at the beginning of each tour that give the specs plus I say them during the video. Maybe I don't understand what you mean by specs? Can you clarify? Thanks! Mike

I'm new to your channel and I like it. Cool to get 3 reviews in 1 video. I would suggest cargo carrying capacity as the main spec for you to add to all your videos. Maybe it will help people not overload

We really appreciate it and hope to hear from you again soon! Mike

The propane in an RV is used for the water heater, furnace, stove top and sometime the refrigerator. In many ways the propane is a more efficient fuel source (versus electric) meaning your water and heater will warm faster. The RV industry is a little slower to evolve than most others like the automotive industry, so I don't know if they will ever complete convert to all electric. And not sure whether they feel it would be cost effective to fully convert. Thank you for watching our RV tour video and commenting. We appreciate your support!

@@RVBlogger thanks for in depth reply! I love your content and just found it. I've been seeing diesel electric technology popping up for heavier vehicles, and do you think it'd be good for RVs?

@@rt_goblin_hours Something along the lines of a hybrid RV? That's not really something we have looked into to be able to confidently give you an answer. I personally would love to see technology that makes motorhomes more fuel efficient but the MSRP on these are already pretty high. I'd be curious how this would affect consumer cost.

@@RVBlogger hi, a similar layout as the Ekko, or that Granite Ridge, seems like a good fit for its size. Given the cost advantage of the E-series chassis and BT quality, I think it would be a success. And maybe address the saggy rear end and a touch of ground clearance. Not to go off-roading, but to clear the mechanicals hanging underneath. Also lose the busy graphics. It's a box and there's no hiding it. Lol

Well Jayco isn't the only manufacturer to charge a high price. What exactly is your point? I'm really not sure how to respond... Thanks for watching! Mike
