I absolutely LOVE this model, especially when Dean said now I COULD leave the bed down on travel days!
I wanna take out one of the front sofas to make a desk table or bar area 🤔 for like a dedicated work space
Thank you for starting from the inside! Other videos I skip the outside with the intention of going back, but I never do. This way it’s an easy transition. Cuz for me, its all about the inside. 👍🏼
FINALLY, a new LTV video with the best spokesman around. Dean is absolutely fantastic!!!
This is the model I've been looking for! I work remotely so the living area at the rear of the motorhome is a perfect spot to set up a laptop and an external monitor on the table and when the monitor is not in use, it can store beneath the sofa. I would definitely need to explore adding Starlink, solar panels for the roof, and lithium batteries. My plan is to work 5 days a week in either a federal or state park and use Saturdays and Sundays as travel days to the next destination so I would definitely need to have a robust energy supply. The only question mark I have with this RV is if it can tow a two-door Jeep Wrangler (flat tow); I'll just have to ask the dealer once I'm ready to pull the trigger.
I wish I worked remotely! That would be a dream...
Up to 4k lbs.
Just looked it up the 2023 wrangler rubicon 2dr 4x4 is 4222 lbs base curb weight. So probably ok, but i wouldnt risk it. Thats a really expensive toy to mess up. And then theres the van you could damage too. 🤣😉.
No one does a better job than Dean on UA-cam. We ordered our Wonder Rear Lounge in August 2020 and should be hearing some good news about a production date next month.
He could literally sell me a plain trailer with an air mattress on it lol
Been more than two years 😱
WHAT? 2 yrs.
Dean does indeed have a gift! ❤ This is my second time watching this and I am amazed at the level of info he presents us with.
I've seen a few units on the road this summer and couldn't help feeling a bit (a lot!) jealous. So perfect for cross-country travelling.
You are absolutely right. I made 3 6000+ mile cross-country trips in a 21' class B. It was convenient, but too small and not relaxing for me. Wonder RL would have been perfect for such trips.
However, with its long waiting list and high price that still misses important feature/option, I may have to consider Thor Compass/Gemini 23 TW that's at least 40% cheaper. I am close to a very good RV repair shop. I think I can handle "Thor quality" 🤣
Remove the prop tank as time has come to use the the electrical one..
Love the floor plan, but the electrical system needs to be beefed up. Drop the generator, and use the space for a good inverter and big LiFPO4 batteries, enough to power the microwave and AC. Propane should only be used for heating, not refrigerator.
The Ford Transit chasis is good. There are just too few places that can service the MB Sprinter.
Hoping to see some Starlink integration in new models. Also wondering if 360 camera view can somehow make it in to future models instead of just backup cams.
Ditto on starlink
Please consider induction cooktop, all lithium system, dual pain acrylic European windows with built-in screens in night shades.
Yes ... Induction is the future.
True SlippyJoe, but the BTU per pound leader is still gas. In a small unit like this you are limited in solar and batteries. I would love an induction/gas burner stove like some RVs have. Running low on batteries, use gas.
Induction definitely but I prefer the AGM..
More options for individual needs for custom builds. Not much to choose from for builds..
Not everyone wants lithium or European windows.
Agreed! And 12v AC!
@@sweater0115 12v AC? What
Wow, I love this Wonder model. Thanks for the walk through Dean. I wasn't aware how functional the rear lounge Wonder could be. Having a split bathroom is a really nice interior feature too.
I might be a bit picky so let me start
Induction stove
Square kitchen sink
Fridge... freezer bottom fridge top
And no propane, rather just have electric.
Well said. I dido that!
What's the deal with having propane? ...I'm new to RV's
@@bermuge1
Nothing that I know of, I'm just not comfortable with it.
Have a great RVing experience
I LOVE the Rear Lounge so much, I'm just sad there are not enough large storage areas. I would have given up the TV and some window size in the back for another large storage cabinet. Back to the Rear Twin for me.
but don't you find yourself always packing too much stuff? I know I do
@@LinaGenX I used too but the last road trip I took I used one backpack but I didn't have time to stop and enjoy the land. For a trip where I'll be getting out and hiking, riding, sitting, cooking, etc... I don't want the chairs, tables, firepit, charcoal, wood, rugs...all inside of the cabin with me.
What about seat belts? Do twin set-up have seat belts? I like the couch ( that folds down to bed) but are the twins as comfortable as seats in the fold down?
I’d like to see a passenger seat desk pull out. Not a deal breaker. But would be nice for the wife to have laptop open looking for new places or having a snack. Just a thought.
I wish i could have one of these for solo camping . Its really beautiful 😍
Truely ultimate comfort zone! I love it.
The rear seat can be little reclined would make it better..
I love how good it looks, high quality, a sensible floorplan. The one thing I don't like is the outdoor storage doors. Instead of them swinging up like they do I would prefer side swinging slam latch doors. Other than that, chef's kiss
Wow I love it good job very classic motorhome congratulations to the workers and the company
Agree with others that the propane should be eliminated & have larger lithium batteries with a second alternator like some B class vans already offer. Also if the 12v option of the current 3 way fridge does not cool well then definitely switch to a compressor fridge. Otherwise I ❤️❤️❤️ the transit chassis & all the new features. Great job!!! 👏🏻
Lithium batteries have a tendency to explode.
Also a toaster oven large enough for a 12inch pizza or a loaf of bread.
@@carolegledhill2274 he said they have "a tendency to fail above 34°C" 🤷♂️😆
@@RichardCranium321 is that 34° weather or the Van (sorry for my ignorance) just that western Australia T° can get up to 50° in the summer in the Gascoyne and northwest. 🙄
@@carolegledhill2274 I think it's battery temperature. They don't have a battery cooler, but they have a heater.
I'm in Florida, so it can get that hot here as well
I just come here for ur energy thanks always for the up-up
Can you get this with a compressor fridge? I will never buy an RV with an absorption fridge ever again. With solar and Lion batteries, compressor fridges are the only way to go. And I have over 10 years experiences with compressor fridges and 3 way prior to that and there is no comparison. Compressor fridges don't have to be level and you set your temp once and it will keep the perfect temp even if it's 110 outside.
Absolutely agree, 12v/110v compressor fridge is a must!
Thanks for asking this question. Adding this to my requirements list.
@@soleykouche4127 I will never go back to an absorption fridge. I can't believe high price class c like LTV's use such substandard technology when there are so many great compressor fridges. I guess they think you will be so amazed with the duel side opening fridge door, you'll ignore that it's a inefficient absorption fridge.
No reply yet!
@@molliem8192 nope, but in his latest video on the Unity rear lounge he made lame comment about the refer running on propane🤣
This is a beautiful RV. The only thing I would want is a door or removalabe barrier between the cab and the living area.
Why? If it's windows can't you just put windows coverings?
@@creinicke1000 You don't make sense.
I like RL floor plan, and RV built on Ford Transit chassis. However, I am still hesitate to consider Wonder for the follow reasons:
- Wonder A/C is not ducted, which could cause uneven air distribution between front and rear. And that Dometic A/C is known to be very noisy.
- Auto leveler is a very important option to RV this size, which is still not available to Wonder.
...and absorption refrigerator (only 40 degrees below ambient temperature, forget desert camping) vs ac/12 volt refrigerator, only 200 watts solar and 200 amps lithium (need to double or triple both, so must rely on generator). But, best floorplan of ANY short RV! Amazing floorplan!!! Ford is a plus, not Mercedes, for service anywhere & costs. Could pull the absorption refrigerator and add your own electric. Maybe add more lithium batteries someplace? Best design of all class B+/C RV's by far!!!
Agreed
I agree as well. At this price point, I am stunned that LTV still doesn't make ducted air standard. Not acceptable. I love their stying but I would never purchase one because of this big miss.
@@stananderson5218 I agree with all of these points but there is an option for 400w of solar on the roof. Fridge and lithium needs improved for sure. It may be possible to replace the 2 100 ah batteries with the 270 ah batteries you can get from Dragonfly,which is Battleborn.
I was waiting for you, great feature with great energetic presentation.
"I am well over 6'"1 & 6/&7/8" love this guy I am sold. These are smarter use of space no doubt. When I get one I am getting this one.
I like everything except the small wheels - small wheels are always a deal-breaker, and the squatty profile.
Read through stories from our LTV ownership community leisurevans.com/blog/
Please consider installing the exterior table option hooks on the driver side was well by the back dual wheels next to the out side shower so if one is cleaning something etc there is a table to do so.
Dean motorhome perfect for me to just get around and enjoy life and once again I love the way you get around the motorhome and explain everything so exciting😀
Dean is such a salesman, very personable and knowledgeable. It is because of him that I will purchase the RL (when I'm able). ❤😀
Thank you for an entertaining tour. Have been drooling over your vans for several years, one of these days will get one!.
The new features are superb and timely. Here is a tip--many humans have greatly improved their health by switching
to a whole food plant-based food regimen. Me--whole food ethical vegan for 25+ years. Cheers for a wonderful 2023.
perhaps the best upgrades to date on the RL, the bed has been rotated 90 degrees and cushions can remain on, nice. Also like the kitchen extension. This is the best layout and RV in the industry handsdown.
I keep finding myself returning to Leisure Travel Vans, the design, layout, features, all combine to be something unexpectedly wonderful! ❤
Very very very very nice motorhome Dean you are the man !!!! 😀
I think this one is the best option for small family
I appreciate the walkthrough starting from the interior. It makes the whole thing engaging to watch from start to end. Most walkthroughs start from the exterior and for whatever reason, it just makes me lose interest quickly.
This guy is a great salesman. He obviously loves his job.
Absolutely beautiful...wonderful, but... no leveling jacks?
You can configure this 2023 Wonder RL on our website, to see all available colours, options leisurevans.com/build/wonder/?step=exterior&floorplan=W24RL
This is my favorite model. I want one. ❤😊
Let’s go Dean 2023!
Quick Question:
Why no incinerating commode? I know they are $6K, but it’s high end, total luxury (which totally fits LMV), and wouldn’t that remove the need for black water tank?
Love your videos and your products! Thank you! 😊
I enjoy watching his videos, I wish I could get one just ❤️❤️❤️🖤🖤 all the motor 🏠.
You never disappoint! Keep the energy.
It looks the same as the 2022 2021 and 2020 models lol really the only difference is the price! more expensive
yeah. I agree with you. no creativity.
@@alasmemoar theres not alot of space to do many floor plan changes but at least use some different colors and flooring or something to be different and price it accordingly lol
If it ‘ain’t broke, don’t fix it… or in this case, don’t change it unnecessarily
@@vlhefner at least throw some different colors in the mix and lower the price since the factory has been set up for many years lol
What is the price?
All I know is this guy is fantastic!!!!! Love his rv tours!
Still waiting for this exact coach. Great job, Dean! Best line……mandatory option 😂
I absolutely Love It ! You are great at what you do Thanks For Sharing .
I really love this ford 2023 motor home ...I'm considering buying this motor home! Thank you ✌🇺🇸💗🌈🌻
A few criticisms. No ducted heat or ac in rear and bathrooms , which is surprising for a motor home at this price point
Man I wish these guys made a regular Class B. Amazing stuff
I agree. They used to, but it seems about 2015 they decided to concentrate on their B+ niche.
I would like the Wonder Twin Bed set up. Though it takes long to make them in the factory. per dealer it takes 2 years. Its a long wait before you can enjoy to use it.
Thank you for the video. Lots of good advice in the comments. Blessings to you.
全网最喜欢的房车分享👍👍👍当我买的时候会两种结合，这款喜欢后面的设计，前面不喜欢，喜欢另外一款前面可以旋转的座椅
我哈特 啊热 有 他离开i那个 阿八呕吐 。。。。啊热 有 偶遇 哦发 有人 民的
Simply stunning model !!
Use tesup solar panels along with wind turbine available too..trust me if I design I will design the best rv..😃
Good to see you again! And is there any chance that you will have a washer machine and a dryer in the van?
Lovely unit. Needs three times the freezer space. Don’t know why so many manufacturers skimp on the freezer space 🤷🏻♀️
Wow! Just wow, wow, wow, wow! There's so much to digest in this wonderful video. I am not in the market for a Class B or C motorhome, but I like looking at them none-the-less. It's just something I do for fun. But rarely have I had such a reaction to a unit like this. I took notes as I watched, but still these talking points are not in any particular order. I broke them down into Pros and Cons. Normally I put them into comments in that order, but this time I am going to reverse that and list the Cons first. Just because there are so few of them, compared to the Pros. So here I go:
Cons:
• Awning style windows. I HATE awning style windows! They are the first things to break. The screw mechanism is awkward. The size of the opening is pathetically small. Completely inadequate. This is a deal killer for me. Or would be if I were actually looking to buy.
• The ottoman mechanism in the rear lounge looks terribly weak. The metal supporting the footrest is too thin. I could see them wobbling as the man demonstrated them. I see those breaking, or at least bending, rendering them useless, very quickly.
• No permanent bed area. This is NOT a deal killer. But one of things I look for in a motorhome, or a travel trailer, is a permanent bed. I don't want to have to make the bed every evening and unmake every morning. Again, this is not a deal killer, but it is a point of contention for me. But this is typical of any smaller floorplan, which is probably why I am not considering a purchase of such a compact unit. I understand that you can leave the rear bed down all the time and only put it up when you want or need the rear lounge. But that kind of defeats the the 'RL' designation.
• The shower is too small. It is very nicely featured, but if you are a little chubby, like me, you are not fitting in that shower. It's tall enough, but there is not nearly enough elbow room. That is why small rigs like this have wet baths. Yeah - I hate them, too, but at least you have enough room to turn around and rinse all sides. The split dry bath is probably a selling point, but it doesn't work for me. I would suggest removing the vanity sink and making this a wet bath. Then there would be enough room in there. I don't need a sink in the lavatory. I can brush my teeth and wash my face in the kitchen. Then there would be enough room. At least the bathroom door is curved. This isn't only cool looking, but it sure helps with the elbow room in there.
• Not really a 'con,' but what's the deal with the "mandatory optional" generator? Is that a Canadian thing?
There are lots more things I like about this unit. So here they are:
Pros:
• The front living area that converts so easily to a dining area. I have looked at quite a few Class B rigs and this is the first one where I really like the arrangement of the seats up front. Plus FOUR seat belts! Thank you.
• The cut out over the cab area. So many Class B and C units have a sleeping/storage area here. I smack my head on them every time I check them out. Plus, not only did they cut that shelf space out, they also did NOT put a TV in there. I don't like those units with televisions located right over the driver's head. I can't say exactly why, I just don't.
• That table. It is extremely versatile. I like how easily it swivels to suit whatever purpose you desire. It would be nice to have one for the front AND the back so that people could be engaged in activities at both ends simultaneously. Perhaps a second table assembly could be ordered to make this a reality? Hmmm. But where to store it?
• The LED light strips and the light switches at no less than three locations. Very convenient and I'll bet those really do a good job of illuminating the interior at night.
• The solid door between the front and rear areas. Most rigs of this size I have seen only have soft folding panels or curtains. This is a really nice feature for me.
• The galley is very small, but everything you need is right at your fingertips. Plus, I REALLY like that fold-down countertop extension! If it weren't for that, I would say that the galley was too small. But with that feature, it turns that right around and makes this a kitchen I could actually make a meal in without feeling quite so cramped. Yes, no one can sit in that left front seat while you're cooking, but I like to boot everyone out when I am cooking anyway, so there you are! That pull out pantry is awesome. It really compensates for the small size of everything else.
• The fridge that opens from two directions. Because this unit has no slideouts, it is VERY narrow inside. I am perfectly OK with this. I think slideouts are overrated. But the designers included this feature which makes the access 100% better than a fridge without this.
• Those brackets for the window shades. If you have the window open and it's breezy outside, these are nice to prevent the shade from flapping. I don't like flapping. Even though I am NOT a fan of the way the windows open, this is a nice touch.
• The footwell area at the end of the bed. One of the reasons I don't like temporary beds is that they are normally shoehorned into place. This is the first rig I have encountered where the person sleeping on the wall side doesn't have to disturb the person sleeping on the inside of the bed to get up. That really is NICE.
• The outside utility service station is very convenient. It also has a couple of features I haven't seen even on much larger rigs. The suction hose for siphoning antifreeze into the plumbing is really cool. I'm not sure I've seen that anywhere! The pump for emptying the black tank seems unique, as well. Thinking back, I don't think I've seen that anywhere else either.
• There were actually quite a few more little touches that I liked, but I decided were too minor to include.
This is a great Class B unit. This video was really well put together and this gentleman is a great salesman. I showed the video to my wife and we agreed if we were in the market for such a unit, this would be the one to have. Nice Job, Leisure Travel Vans. I am impressed!
I think it was the Wonder that used to have an island bed floorplan. This was the unit I selected when I once for fun looked for an RV for my parents. Unfortunately it currently is not listed as an option of the LTV site.
remember that April Fool's model that drove itself? yeah, I want one of those! Love your channel!....I can't even afford and electric bike let alone one of these beauties but I watch your new videos every year! My dream model would be to have a rear twin with a permanent office space in back. forget the TVs but have a computer set up with three big monitors! ha! yeah, I know, leave the work at home.... leisure vans are for leisure not computing!
There should be a step cover that can be stacked up on the side door to avoid children fall..
Nah, they should get rid of the stepwell and have 2 external steps. Like the Ekko.
Leave the kids at home.
YES, THIS IS A
TINY 🏡 HOME. 😋
Having watched both videos, for me the Unity would be the way to go. I like the back bathroom and the windows above the Unity Murphy bed.
Wow rear ceiling fan👌
Flawless presentation!
Dean once again doing an amazing job!!!!
Finally got it right. Very nice!!
Dean back at it! Great to see!
I love this guy! Esp his Jenny Craig info😂😂😂😂
Unfortunately you will never get one of these as what the dealer has just informed me when I went in to aquire about this model. Better luck putting in an order now to get a 2024- 2025 model
It’s currently available in my dealership outlet here in California. Kindly let me know if you’re still interested thanks
@@peterjimmyrayers5892 Just bought a 2023 flying cloud 30' office. No longer looking but thanks anyway.
I still do not understand why LTV does not adopt basic new technology such as 12v compressor refrigerator and 12v AC. These two new appliances are nowadays a must have.
This is what I had been waiting for. I do want an additional table top
That edit when dropping the bed down 🧐
wish they make one for a family of 4 comfortably
Yes or even 5 with 5 seatbelts
Im In love with this RV..
Did they ditch the daytime sun shades on the windows?
This is perfect for driving into Mexico.
I love the RL so much.... :-)
I love this unit.
The yearly tradition now starts
Ahhh here we go again, hope one day i could afford one of LTV series 😂😂😂
Im so glad this model is on the ford chassis I love the rear lounge 😍 what is the towing capacity? Dean you did a wonderful presentation you rock.....
Beautiful!
Liked 👍 awesome
If only someone ordered this, changed their mind on delivery and said “Hey, Heather, just take over payments but not now. Use it now but start paying in a year. Hey, I’m a dreamer. Why not? Of course the solar, satellite, stackable washer dryer. I’m dreaming. Intelligent all wheel drive, folding dog wall for the patio. Folding treadmill and hand weights. My kids and grandkids and a nice beach to park near. Boom. 😬 I will have to watch again because I didn’t hear you say. Was there an auto gen start available?
Any color combination-I’m not picky. 🤟🏼☕️
Count me in Heather’s deal, in case 2 people change their minds.
I love your vanity. Show
No matter how much this guy is paid, it's way too little! Absolutely top sales pitches down there.
The corner sofa in the rear seat can be round for the person to sit properly...
Awesome! Love your presentation
Amazing video! Thank You Dean!
Me gusta , cuánto cuesta ??
LOVE THIS VAN!!
Very nice but any privacy blinds for the Wind screen up front?
fantastic😄
Nice one
Really well done, kudos! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Dean, please make 2 more legs for the exterior table, then the table can be attaching the car or moving around.
Feel better with that torn meniscus!
Those the shower door still separate the front from the back like before? I ask because in the video it was a gap in between the door and the wall or maybe it wasn’t close all the way
