Hello everyone, welcome to my channel. Like so many others, my lifestyle changed due to the pandemic.
Before the pandemic, my families lives had become so hectic & busy that there never seemed to be a good time to travel anymore. Somewhere along the line we realized that our last vacation was in 2011. We decided that it was time we made some travel plans.
Then the pandemic hit! I no longer wanted to travel by plane or stay in a hotel. We decided that a bettter and safer alternative would be to travel in our own vehicle, one that we could also sleep in, cook our own meals in, vacation in. The rest is history!
However, the RV shopping process is not easy and required a lot of research. I want to share what I have learned along with my ongoing experiences and adventures through my channel which offers:
RV tours / walkthroughs
Camping destinations
Hiking
RV modifications & DIYs
RV Cooking
And much more…..
So I invite you to come along with me on this ongoing RV journey.
I don't think you can beat the Mercedes cockpit. Thank you for the tour.
Yes, I really like the Mercedes cockpit and platform. I was surprised that this unit was not 4 wheel drive as most of the Mercedes 144 I have reviewed are. Thanks for watching!
I agree with your final thoughts, the bathroom is small. They could easily add a compost toilet with a pull out on the side with a door. Many vans now have that. Controls are good locations and that bed seems comfortable. Your pleasant presentation was good; not too much jargon. Many men have the tendency to oversell an RV/Van product on UA-cam. They talk too much. I do admit that sometimes I turn down the volume and just listen to music as I watch RV/Van presentations. Women get it too guys. Go Girl.
Thank you for the compliment. Overall, this RV has a very nice and comfortable feel and I like the layout. I agree that there are different ways these manufacturers could make these RVs even better. Thanks for Watching!
Wow the interior is very modern. Thanks!
I agree, I loved the finishes. Thanks for Watching!
Love the finish
Wow, like a five star hotel
Pleasure way uses good materials for construction and has great craftsmanship. Thanks for Watching!
New to your channel. Looking at class B RV's. Very nice coach. It's very comfortable and modern looking. Very good job on the tour and all the specs of this unit. 👍 and a subscriber. Good luck and look forward to future videos.
Thank you for the compliment and Thanks for subscribing as it really means a lot to me. I usually produce a couple of videos a week. Thanks for watching!
Great review of always. Pleasure Way has a very nice fit and finish to their products. The bother, although nicely appointed does lack the vent as you said. I love the Sprinter chassis, the simple, functional design of the coach. Love the lagoon table, round is okay, but working with a laptop from a smaller round table, isn’t always optional for long period of times. Being on the east coast, I’d need AWD or 4x4, not sure if this is just a 4x2. Again, thanks for the review, keep them coming!!
Thanks for the compliment. I agree the fit and finish was very nice and I am a fan of the Mercedes platform as well. This is not a 4X4 or AWD. Also, I agree that the round table is probably not optimal for working on a laptop. Thanks for watching!
Pleasure Way makes a quality product. Not sure why they are still installing the generator in 2022. Would rather have additional lithium batteries. If you could get the 2wd Ascent for the same price as a 4wd Sanctuary, which one would you buy?
Personally, I am planning to use the 4X4 for some off-grid BLM camping in Utah later this year (once it warms up) so having the 4X4 is very important to me. I did really like the materials that Pleasure way used and how spacious it felt. I would also keep the generator (I like the security of power on demand and use the AC here in FL) and add a couple of 200 watts solar panels on the roof. Thanks for Watching!
Great review!! I am in the market for a class B. Why are these model's so low profile? One low dip or big speed bump and goodbye generator and tanks.
I agree that some are really low, however this one is not too bad. It really depends on how you plan on using the RV. I purchased the Thor Sanctuary because I am planning some off grid BLM camping in Utah. Thanks for Watching!
Excellent job with this review...wish they would ditch the generator and increase the lithium.
Would need a second alternator too.
Thank you for the compliment. I like having a generator as current lithium systems will discharge quickly when using the AC. Living in FL, AC is a must for me. Thanks for watching!
당신의 목소리가 넘 이쁘고 또박또박 설명을 하고 있어서 영어 공부하기에 아주 좋아요👍 .
I am glad that you find my voice clear enough to practice learning and understanding English. Thanks for Watching!
Wish they would do a dropdown bed, along with a big lithium package. Cassette toilet would allow for bigger fresh and gray tanks.
This layout seems to be pretty standard in the B-class RV. The drop down beds (aka Revel) do allow for great garage storage. Lithium systems seem to be getting bigger and better. Thanks for Watching!
@@Adventure-Mom seems like Pleasureway has been left behind by Grech and Midwest Coach in advanced design though.
Thanks for the great review. It seems to be very comparable to the Thor that you have purchased. What are your thoughts?
The layout is very similar. However I think this RV had a "higher" end feel and felt more spacious overall but it did have a smaller bathroom and did not have a wardrobe cabinet. Also, this RV is not lifted and is not a 4X4 so the Sanctuary would be better for off-grid camping. Thanks for Watching!
Best RV for 2022
That really depends on your individual needs but I do agree that this is a great B-Class RV. Thanks for Watching!
You really get around mom! You never told us which class B is your favorite!
Hello Greg, I would have to say that my overall favorite B-Class RV is probably the AirStream Interstate 19 as I like the 144 chassis, I need 4X4 for off-road adventures, I really like the materials they used, and it seems like it was well built. Thanks for Watching!
@@Adventure-Mom THANKS! I really enjoy your videos and your style of presentation.
Should i sell house land and myself to buy this
Good Video
Thanks for Watching!
It’s not called a Pleasure Way for nothing. Great van. Cheers!!!
LOL, yes it did have really nice interior finishes and the quality seemed to be great as well. Thanks for Watching!
Why there is no pricing info?
The MSRP is $155,805 and then you can add options but the price for RVs is usually very negotiable so the price really depends on how well you can negotiate and how low the dealer is willing to go. Thanks for Watching!
The vehicle is Awesome as an RV...
Is it up for Sale?
Yes this unit is for sale and in stock at North Trail RV in Fort Myers. You can contact Jeff Rutherford at 239-693-7229 for more information. Thanks for Watching!

@@Adventure-Mom thank you!
Nice tour Ruby ❤️. Another van with poor bathroom.
Hello Max, it did feel tight in the bathroom but at least it had all the essential amenities. Thanks for watching my videos!
Dislike the seatbelt fastenings when the bed is dropped but presume they can be tucked down between the padding, just in case I had a female stop over for some gymnastic pleasuring - don't want an accident leading to a trip to the ER. Otherwise nice looking van, well set up.
You are correct that the seatbelt fastenings can be pulled down and out of the sofa / bed if not needed. Thanks for watching!
Solar panel & capacity?
It has Dual 100Ah Eco-Ion Earth Smart Lithium (LiFePO4) coach batteries, Xantrex™ 2000 watt Pure-sine wave inverter, and options for 100 watts (5 amps) or a 200 watts (10 amps) solar panel system. Thanks for Watching!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching!
So, I sort of met you at the Tampa show this month. I just happened to walk in on you as you and your husband were doing a video of one of the RV's. I don't mind so much when my husband is watching one of your videos but what bothers me is when you keep sticking your hands in the drawers and cabinets. If you are wanting to show people how big something is bring a measuring tape as the whole hands in the drawers and cabinets just really bothers me. Thank you
I think I remember you coming in, it would have been nice to meet you in person. I appreciate your feedback as I am always looking for ways to improve my videos. Thanks for Watching!
അമ്മായി ഞങ്ങൾക്ക് ഇവിടെ കേരളത്തിൽ ഓണമാണ്
സ്നേഹത്തോടെ അമ്മായിക്കും ഞങ്ങൾ ഓണാശംസകൾ നേരുന്നു
നന്ദി, നല്ലൊരു ഓണം ആശംസിക്കുന്നു. എന്റെ ചാനലിനെ പിന്തുണച്ചതിന് നന്ദി
When you get a chance. Can you find out why? No vanity mirrors in most B-Class? I know they removed them for a reason. I just wanna know why, thanks.
Most of the B-class RVs that I have walked through do have some type of mirror whether it is on the door or part of the vanity. However, I have seen the vanity mirrors break in the past so that may be a concern for some manufacturers. I have added the plastic stick on mirror to the back of my bathroom door as those can't break. Thanks for Watching!
Hi👋🏽 I love the cabinetry but the bathroom is small. Also, I think there was a problem with your 🎤 mic; it was low at different times. Thanks and stay safe.
I agree the bathroom did feel smaller than usual and the cabinets were super nice. I have been having some issues with my mic, again, and am in the market for something better. Thanks for watching!
