This is literally all one person needs. And a pet.

Finally a RV not overly huge. I’m single and I would buy this.

Awesome. That thing is a studio apartment on wheels.

Dry bath and twin beds absolutely perfect😊

Thanks for starting inside and only limited mentions of cabinets. Beds, bathroom/shower and fridge are the most important . One thing no one ever shows is leg room for the driver when driving. Nice job are showing leg room with the beds and telling your height. Well done.

Thanks for giving the msrp nobody ever does that, it is very helpful for a new buyer to get an idea on what they can afford 👍

I love having the bathroom in the back of the cab, it allows for more space in the kitchen and social room.

I do love these. I almost bought a used one. It may be my next rig. It's just the perfect size for one person. I might even remove one bed and make an office from that area.

I know a lot of people don’t like the overcab bunks, but I really think that should be an option with this model. This model could have a lot of appeal for families (including mine) that want a roadtrip and camping vehicle without being huge. The bunk over cab would allow 4 people to sleep easily while keeping the small footprint. For those without kids, the overhead bunk provides invaluable space for this rv that desperately needs it (where do you store bedding when you’re not using it?). I can imagine a larger family bringing a tent along for the campsite, but loving this for siteseeing because there is a toilet and ability to store and make meals while out. A tent trailer could also be towed for extra sleeping. Thank you so much to the manufacturer for adding so many seatbelts. It’s such an easy way to speak to families. If anyone out there knows of a model like this with an overhead bed, please share.

Great construction and layout. It’s the ideal RV size, falling between B and C, where there’s ample space inside without feeling cramped.

Enjoyed your tour. I like listening to your voice. NO BS, just facts. Thank you.

This is my favorite RV I've seen so far. Amazing!

Mr. Russo has great delivery. So smooth, never rushed, great pauses to give the listener time to think. Another great review.

Thanks as always for a thorough tour. You hit all of the high spots and didn’t shirk from letting us know the MSRP. I love that there is room for eight seat belted passengers. Wow.

I own one of those RV, not as new but has almost all the new features. I really enjoyed and like it.

Im a solo full-time r in a truck camper and this checks a lot of boxes for sure.

I love it! I like that it’s small and nimble. It can easily fit in national parks. My husband and I are getting older. I could drive this and I don’t need to worry about hooking and unhooking a trailer. I like the safety of the cab and living are all in one. I like how there is a lot of seating/seatbelts for guests. This would be great for the beach or tailgating. I could continue. The price like everything else in today’s world a bit much. But considering cost of truck/trailer it’s a bit better. Great review.

We have owned a 5210 for a little over 2 years. Great engine and transmission, excellent going up hills and very good transmission control going down hills. We only have 7,000 miles on it and it is still breaking in and getting better MPG The on board computer shows 11.5 to 12.0 MPG at a steady 63 miles per hour. Exterior finish is fine, although lots of left-over sealant around the seams. I have fixed the roof leaks and rebuilt the ceiling after the winter seepage. Most of the interior plumbing leaks have been tightened up, just one bathroom sink leak to fix. The appliances are standard and all work well, now. I fixed the wind leaks around the front 2 cabin windows with some water dam material from Amazon and some black tape. Almost looks factory installed and it sure stops the wind noise and the windows flexing at 60 Miles per hour. Or course you cannot open them any more, but the other 2 windows are enough air. Also had good luck finding the short in the wiring to the roof lights. When the ladder screws were installed they pierced the supply wire and it would short out all the running lights. I hope I have it fixed now. The Ford chassis and drive train are excellent as is the suspension. I have most of the fit and finish corrected, hinges, alignment, and drawer slides. Just the bathroom door hinges to replace and re-hang the door. This 5210 is a 2021 and they were moving them thru the factory pretty quick at that time. All in all it is a pleasure to drive.

For travellers that aren't really large, this could be somebody's perfect fit. Cool RV

Glad to see a RV w/o half dozen slideouts. My first RV was a Class C Fleetwood Jamboree. 23.5ft on a C30 frame (it was a 1985). This would be perfect for 2 people for a weekend get-a-way.

I love this small class C RV Gulf stream BT cruiser. It has everything we are looking for in an RV.

The simplicity and practical layout of this unit is very cool.

Thank you for starting inside and including the price. I wouldn’t pay that much, but I appreciate you including it.

Oh man this is perfect! Two people and dog. Forgetta-about-it. Perfect size. Gotta poke around for pricing.. Thank you

Very nice and compact unit. Good to see they did not skimp on the generator being 4k instead of marginal 2k outputs and it's using gas and not propane...

This a great tailgating RV! It can take up to 8 people near the stadium and has a great layout to keep everyone happy. The compact design helps you get into tight spaces. It's on my list of RVs to consider!

THIS IS EVERYTHING!!! I NEEEEED!

I love it but $130000 is TOO costly.😩

If you’re only going on the occasional trip with this for two, this is the perfect size. It got all you need really. Unless you have two or more kids or you’re trying to live in one of these, I don’t see the point of the much larger ones. You can also park this a lot easier at home.

Having been looking closer at B's and B plus, I haven't wanted to consider a propane model but I'm really liking this for what I'm thinking my particular needs are. Thank for the tour!

I love not only the dry bath but also the windows -- they are amazing!

DANG......I COULD HAPPILY LIVE IN THIS UNIT!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This layout really needs a drop-down bed over the living area so you don't have to make it and pack it up each day. Dynamax made something similar a few years ago, the REV 24RB but are sadly no longer made.

Oh and my fave feature is all the belted seating!!!

This is a lovely little coach. I had a Gulf Stream Ultra (class c) and it was so reliable and problem free. Gulf Stream makes a reliable enjiloyable trouble free rig.

I am a huge fan of the “dry bath” so this will be a perfect optin when I purchase my RV

Really good tour, really good RV. Two things I would like would be for the water heater to be on demand and the heat to also run with electric

It'd be AMAZINGLY AWESOME if you could have a over the cab bunk

I like the dry bath, and the folding couch/beds.

This seems like the perfect size, without being cramped. The sofas/bed are a good idea and the kitchen looks very user friendly as well. We had a class C and the huge bunk over the cab not only came out very far but also made it feel very awkward when driving. The design on this Gulf Stream looks much improved! Thanks for showing it.

I agree. The dry bath! one thing that I would need is additional battery storage for a large solar set up. Over all, it looks like a great value.

I have been looking for a 8-seater RV layout design for nearly 10 years now. Finally found it. The only change i would make is to have main door open into the washroom so that the hallway space is not wasted. Usually, US RVs are not wide enough. This is the same dimension of Traveller 4020 available in India which i am planning to convert. Thanks so much.

Your review was great and got me really excited with this size unit. I went on RV Trader and dealer sites to look at what was available and found prices vary from dealer to dealer. My next thing was to read reviews and BOY was I shocked ! I read many bad reviews on the build quality of the Gulfstream BT Cruisers and then most everyone complained about warranty repair work and customer service from Gulfstream. I hate to say it but customer service after the sale is important and with all the bad reviews I will look elsewhere for a class c or b. I really liked the unit, but don't want major problems.

Nice it’s adorable. Comparable to the Leisure Van (not as high end) but about $100,000 cheaper. Seems like a good value and alternative.

Looks like a very solid, well equipped class C, and the company has been around for a long time. Definitely more spacious than a class B.

I really like what I saw. The jackknife sofas would work real well for us. The only thing that concerns me if the space around the toilet as it looks pretty tight. It would have been better if the sink was put in the corner with a smaller cabinet. Great use of space otherwise and good price point. Thanks for the great review.

Excellent walkthrough as always. This is a timely review for me. I recently saw an ALP (Adventurer) 19 foot class c … exterior only, parked in a normal parking spot. The mfg is also a family/independent in BC Canada. It has wet bath and rear dinette convert to bed as well as a cabover bed. Both the Gulf Stream and Adventurer 19 have pluses/minuses for me … either would be great. The small Class C is as you say … a good alternative to Class B for a bit more room in a similar footprint. I have been dithering for 3-4 years in how/what to downsize from my 33 foot/2 slide Class A that is too large for how I want to travel now. Thanks Joe and Kait for reviewing this unit!

Let's just say it -- those couches across from each other look faaaaabulous! As someone said earlier, an over-cab bed would be a great option. Even in my old VW Westfalia, if I only had two, I could use the pop-top for the large bed, and leave the "downstairs" set up as a living room and not have to convert that to a bed all the time.

I kind of like it. Seems like a great starter RV

Our first coach was a 1984 24' Lindy on a Ford 460. Very similar floorpkan, including rear dry bath with a TUB for our small daughter. We're currently selling our 42 diesel pusher and going back o something similar to this just a tad bigger. We loved that motor home.

I love this! It has plenty of room for 2 adults and our dogs. The (dry) bathroom is PERFECT! We've been looking for something similar for our retirement. The only thing missing is a lockable doggie door. Very well done.

HAY !!! I THINK I LOVE 💕 THIS BAD BOY 💖 I HAVE BEEN LEARNING ABOUT CAMPERS FOR A WHILE NOW BUT COULDN'T DECIDED ON THE ONE TOO GET . THIS IS ADORABLE 🤗 I LOVE IT AND THE WAY YOU EXPLAIN IT MAKES A NEW COMER LIKE ME EASY TO LEARN ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL CAMPER !!! THANKS! SO MUCH ! 🤗😃

Now this I can do. It's not huge, has everything needed, and comfortable!

My favorite feature is also the dry bath. Also, the automatic shut down of the generator fuel consumption when the fuel tank drops to 25%. Great video!

Perfect for one person and their small dog.

i love it, just a few things i would love to see in maybe a future model. i would want to just put the shower, toilet, and sink all in one as a wet bath to increase the amount of storage space and/or be able to increase the size of the kitchen. i hope there's a fridge option with more freezer space but i've been looking for a trailer/RV situation that has that size or bigger refrigerator. i don't know about anyone else, but i find the freezer more useful than the fridge.

Small and yet all that's needed. Very thoughtful for the price. Like another home.

I really like how you deliver information. You do not just wing it, you think about your narrative and how you actually "speak" it in your videos. It sets you apart from other KZfaq RV content creators. I/we are looking for a travel coach where my spouse and dog can relax while I am driving for long periods, so a bathroom or overnight sleeping is not so important. We are waffling between a B Class RV and a C Class. Your videos have helped us a lot.

Very nice unit. Awning-style windows are simply genius and their size, wow). The bathroom is great. Should be on- demand water heater! Also, the should have put an awning running all the way to the rear...

Great review. This unit seems to be really well built with the fiberglass roof and rear cap. Aluminum walls too. So many units look so flimsy like a tin can This seems solid. The interior is well planned. I wish I had the $.

1. I like that you show the inside layout first! THANK YOU! 2. I don’t like the below counter placement of the microwave. 3. Would rather have larger freezer compartment. 4. I like the dry bathroom, but wish the shower were larger. 5. I am so glad there’s not a bed over the cab- thank you! I tend towards claustrophobia.

I like the truck + camper with open access design. I just find this desirable, the feel of driving like its a truck, rather than an RV.

If Ford would only update their chassis at least once every 30 years.

I've always liked this model, although I prefer the floorplan with one bed and a dinette. The biggest cons for me are fuel economy on the 3500 and a little wider when parking (as opposed to a Class B).

Dry Bath.......oh ya. It is great that Pleasure Way has gotten back in the game with thier Plateau. Am sure it will be more money but then there is a lot more van there as well!

Hello I am loving the size of the motorhome and the bathroom now only if it had the over head cab window that would be just a perfect class c Thank you

Love it! Perfect for a couple!

I love this small motorhome. It looks great if you don’t mind how small it is. How lacking in real storage space or additional space to add more batteries. And as long as you don’t mind that it isn’t a 4 season motorhome ; it works. But for $129,000 I’m can buy a pickup truck and an Incred-I-Camper which I’m also interested in. That way I have a 4 season camper and no need for a Toad. That’s what Incredible Tiny Homes of East Tennessee has designed as a prototype towable camper. It may need a few changes, like an emergency escape window , but WOW!, a towable camper for $40,000 with a a 100 gallon fresh water tank ,and a grey water tank and a lithium battery and solar package included with a dry bath with a composting toilet but it has the ability to put in either a standard RV toilet or a household toilet if you park it on a piece of property with water/sewer ,and the Morryde steps and a mini split and an incredible ,only seen on huge 5th wheels , human body sized under bed storage. I don’t know it even looking into a Gulfstream BT cruiser RV with very little storage and very little storage space, or a space to upgrade that one battery to two or more. I don’t know. I am hoping Randy Jones decides to mass produce the incred- i- camper ( As Randy calls it) because heck a truly 4 season camper that can actually be used as a tiny home if you just want to put it on a piece of property as well. Yeah! I don’t know . I wish you and Kate could go see the Incred-i-camper prototype and see if you two like it. And what if any changes you would make to it to make it a better camper. And no I am no way connected to Randy Jones or Incredible Tiny Homes of East Tennessee, but I am a fan of his KZfaq channel Incredible Tiny Homes and I wish you and Kate or other RVers would check this prototype camper out because it seems so versatile as a camper then a tiny home when someone finally doesn’t want to or can’t go on the road anymore, but has a piece of land or place they can set it up as a tiny home. I do love the BT Cruiser, though just for solo RVers.

I think you get an A+ . I have watch many motor home videos and you did one of the best of everything this cool little motor home has. I never was bored once and seen some one not happy of you telling about the paint and cool graphic's on the paint job. This is a cool part of the motor home . Good job Buddy - wish I could afford one of these as 2024 now. 👍

I had an older one that I loved. As a full-timer, I changed the jackknife sofa for a real real twin bed with a 500 lithium battery bank . 500 watts solar on the roof. The tanks enabled me to boondock for two weeks. I would still be driving it if someone hadn’t run a red light and totalled it. I’m in a used Class C now, but hoping to get another one in the future.

Nice basic RV with most features one would need. The storage is a bit small, actually way small, as well as off grid power options, but it's really designed for RV parks/campgrounds with plug-in capability. As no longer an Storyteller ModeLT owner, I would love for you to review the EKKO, my new to me land yacht.

Considering downsizing from a 30’ tow trailer. If we consider selling the tow truck and trailer and switching to a small class C, this looks like it would tick off the boxes. Ideally a slide out would be a great addition but of course that would jack up the price. Thanks for your review!

Love the layout for this and the bed space turning into 2 full size seating is a + for me. Love the dry bath too. This is exactly what we were looking for.

Not only did you describe the MH so well you actually made me love the idea of owning one. Unfortunately we do not tend to get the same huge array of motor homes in Australia that you do in the US. As a single female traveler I loved the beds as I could leave one as a bed and still have a sofa. The only negatives I saw was that the table could have been a few cms wider, I would prefer a single induction cooktop over gas, there needs to be a cutlery drawer in the kitchen. Everything else was just brilliant. I loved the electronic awning- so easy!. The bathroom was a good size and heaps of storage. I don't want a huge motorhome but I do want comfort and some feeling of luxury and this provided all of that.

I much prefer the dry bath over a B-van wet bath and without trying them it is hard to say, but at first glance, I think I like the opposing sofa beds.

Great video tour. I like the dry bath. Hoping that a Lithium version is an option.

It looks huge from the inside!

I ❤❤❤ this RV. Perfect for Solo traveling or with a friend or significant other 👍🤘😲. The price is a little high but totally worth it 🎉.

The dry bath in that small a RV - instant winner. I've attempted to buy BT Cruisers (5210) for about ten years, they get snapped up fairly quickly. On the down side, the few I've went to see to buy were ROUGH. Owners USE THEM they do not sit idle for long with high mileage and deterioration of the cabin they want premium return on their investment. New? well, not anytime soon.

I saw that Cruise America sells used 19 foot class Cs, so I'm not sure you should call this The Smallest Class C RV. But it's definitely one of the smallest. MPG would have been nice to know. Thanks for the thorough tour.

We own a 5230 and love it , it dosnt have over head bed because it’s a b+, for people that don’t need the height of a c.it’s more like the sporty edition of a c…

Best small RV I have seen so far. So much cheaper than renting.

Nice review. This is the type and size RV I prefer for one or two people plus a pet or two. You didn't mention the engine size options or the GCWR. One limiting factor for me is the modest towing capacity of 5000 pounds. A standard I use is I need something that can flat tow my off road pick up truck while the RV is at it's max GVWR. This RV's tow capacity has no extra margin of safety for me. The main reason though for not being interested is for me, a retiree, the prohibitive price. Last year I bought an clean older Chinook RV for a good price. It has the big block 460 which the previous owner recently had rebuilt and a remanufactured transmission installed. With a 10 grand or so budget I expect to spend upgrading the suspension and interior including the electronics from solar, lithium, energy efficient heating and cooling, a kick butt entertainment system, etc; I'll still be about 90 grand ahead of the cost of one of these new RVs. No matter how nice they are. Good luck on your future travels, I enjoy following along. Happy trails!

I like it! Not sure I can afford it. You did a very good review. I haven’t watched your channel in a few months. You should continue doing reviews. You are very good at it!

The best floor plan I have ever seen for me.

a very nice unit lots of features and beautifully designed my favorite feature is the bathroom

Curious to hear thoughts on build quality & any other possible drawbacks. Personally, I love the size & that I could keep 1 bed down most of the time w/the opposite sofa upright. I'm a big guy & have no issue with wet baths, so I'd rather see a really large wet bath. All said, it's certainly an affordable entry into rving.

Makes me wish I could afford one. Seems pretty solid with alot of user friendly features. Love the bed set up. You could line up 6 people at the table for a Spicy Noodle challenge.🌶♨️ As always, very informative.

We looked at these at a show not long ago. Amazing build. Wish I could afford one. We toured the factory. Great place. I worked in RV for years in the factories. These guys make solid and back it up! Writing form Elkhart, IN.

Omg Back to doing full RV tours Please keep doing your RV reviews Your the best In the business when it comes to RV reviews

Cute little RV. Would be great for tailgating at games for a group of friends!

Always liked the 5210. I'm curious what's under the jack knifes. It would be nice to remove one of thm and build something else, like a desk/work station.

I just liked it. I’m gonna tell my husband we’ve been looking at campers and fifth wheels. This is another option.😊 I really like the bathroom

Would like to see some real world MPG numbers with the 7.3 Godzilla engine with this small class C. Great video! Thanks.

Cute simple and great for one or two people. Easy to maneuver. I like it. I really like the thought of NO slides. However price is way too high for such a simplistic RV.

This is *finally* the PERFECT RV in my books! amazing!

would love to have something like this for me and my son I love that there are two beds and not just one and I think it would be something my and my son could travel in and have fun

Love the simple thing that there is a spare tire with a place for it to be. Love a dry bath. Not sure if I would want to make the bed every day. Looks like its possible to have one bed left down with the table in the middle and the sofa set up?

How in the heck you can really walk between the 2 beds, there is what ,3 to 4 inches width? C'mon ....
