I was thinking about getting with you guys to get a tow behind for my Ford P/U. Seeing this makes me consider selling off the P/U and getting the whole package for a nice retirement vehicle for me and the little lady.
Thank you Joshua for being honest about how many people this unit can seatbelt and sleep . So many would have said two for each sleeping area, or that this unit sleeps eight or more when that's not practically true .
Josh, You do great videos, much more in depth about units specs and benefits. One hint though...alot of CPAP users sleep on their left side so as to direct their mask venting air into the face of their sleeping partner, which would disturb the partners sleep. The thing I see missing in most all videos and even pics of units, no matter who is showing the unit, is what table or stand is on the right side of the bed when standing in front of it. This is the side of the bed where alot of us users who have the "alien thing" stuck to our faces are. The shelf needs to be at least 6 to 8 inches wide to hold the machine, and most have a humidifier with water in it, so at least 8 to 10 inches long. Standard hoses from the machine to the ask are 6 feet. Basically, after all that useless info I have given, some of us would like to see a full view of the right side of the bed and any stands there. You do fantastic work with these videos, please keep it going.
Fun fact - Sleeping on your left side is actually a bit better for you. I think over time most of us figure that out by simply how it "feels" when we lie on one side or the other. Handy note for you: Look into traveling CPAPs. Both my parents are CPAP users and active RVers. The smaller models they can use in their fifth wheel have been extremely handy. More and more RV builders are revising their existing models and building new models to be more CPAP friendly thankfully.
@@JoshtheRVNerd Thanks for the reply Josh. Unfortunately I must use a BiPap machine, and the manufacturers have yet to develop a mini that will handle the volume of air for that type of therapy. Thank you very much for the background though.
I like your preview videos, especially seeing slides in - travel mode. Thank you. I really appreciate that they still have the oven/stove top combo instead of the induction cook top and microwave/convection combo. I noticed the same range in the class c Greyhawk you previewed. This is a better to have and not need than need and not have thing. On a big rig like this why the heck do they not put a king size bed in the main bedroom? I find it hard to justify the expense of buying a rig like this without a king bed.
You do such an amazing job on these reviews anyway you could get a review on an alente 29f and get us a nice test drive in it really looking to buy one in the next few months before I drive cross country in my pickup truck
We are a dealer who records whatever comes into our stock. I cannot record by request. Though we focus heavily on education we need to have the opportunity to earn a client's business or the videos stop happening
Also I love love that it is completely no carpet. I love the floor plan too. The decor is awesome. Most of the time I look at motorhomes and plan how to fix the ugly decor. But the color scheme is great.
Would love to see this without the bunk. Is anything in it's place (i.e. entertainment) or is it just removed? Thanks for the video, love this floor plan.
What exactly does entry level mean? I hear it so much and wonder should I stay away from “entry level” rv’s. We’re just a couple of months away from buying and I love this floor plan BUT it’s entry level.
*EXCELLENT QUESTION!* It could mean several things. I generally interpret it as "a more simple trim package" without all the bells and whistles of many more expensive models. Often "entry level" RVs at our facility have the same build and structure as their "big brother/sister" models, but a more simple set of equipment. Think of it like a mid-sized sedan. The LS Trim Package is the basic, entry level package. Does what it needs to. Nothing fancy. It's a workhorse. The LT trim package, by contrast, starts to pick up fun stuff like heated seats, nav, etc. Does that help?

Pros and Cons both ways. We're always happy to look at it from either direction for you.

@@wrfabus interesting. I just learned something too!
A pretty cool RV. A sink outside? Yes! CPAP friendly? Wow.

It’s funny - we were just asking the same question about king beds yesterday.

@@JoshtheRVNerd could you find me a jayco/entegra 29f used for around 70k I will be up your way in august

Very well thought out layout. Curious can it be ordered without a bunk at all and no outdoor kitchen so it could be just a storage box?
Front power bunk is optional, but the outside kitchen is not. Not difficult to remove those fixtures, however.
Would love to see this without the bunk. Is anything in it's place (i.e. entertainment) or is it just removed? Thanks for the video, love this floor plan.
Larger overhead cabinets
Haylett RV thanks! I’d take the cabinets over a bunk!
Love this. Great thinking. 😉
How much for this motorhome with the bunk option. I love love this coach.

Haylett RV yes thank you. I appreciate your honesty and integrity
Do they make a diesel version?
can you put in a combo washer/dryer?
This model is not made prepped for that feature. It would need to be a custom aftermarket job.
