Almost every van has the same paint scheme. Using black paint to make it look like there are large windows running the length of the van. I don’t understand why they do this. Who do they think they’re fooling. It looks stupid and fake to me!
I don’t care for the yellow main color. No bathroom sink and windows not opening are also no no’s. Also batteries are inaccessible for me and exposed to the weather. Also no on the kitchen faucet. No to the water pump switch being inside a cabinet door. Forward slanting upper cabinets have unusable upper area leaning out. 8 gal Black tank would fill in 3/4 days. Also no way to add fresh water to tank when boondocking. Rear door plan has potential for innovative floor plans but this design needs work.
as much as I like a dry bath you get it by having no kitchen at that length, that really is for people who eat at restaurants and may heat up some leftovers or make a sandwich for lunch. With as many singles who are out van camping it really is high time someone made a van for them that does not need to sleep two which so limits the floorplans
90% of my cooking when camping is on the grill so I always want my coach to waste as little space on the kitchen as possible. it's all about the bathroom and the bed for me lol
Having a Convection Oven is really nice. Most people do not realize that you cannot bake anything in an RV (especially a class B) with just a microwave oven. Also after having an Airstream Interstate for years I find that the mid-coach bed setup is much better than the power sofa/bed where you have to climb over your partner at night.
The microwave in my class B is convection oven and grill. In five years I have never seen anybody show a grill feature!!!! Rotates and grills food to perfection! Best steaks I have ever cooked. It’s the feature I use the most, yet nobody ever talks about it. It’s truly bizarre, I don’t get it. I actually think that most people don’t know it even exists. Weird
@@jabreck1934 I agree...we had to use a toaster oven in our Airstream which was almost more trouble then it was worth until the piping hot cookies were served...
Love wetbath, no wasted inside space. Most showers outside faucet, bathing suit for most,then put on moomoo, to get the private places. or sometimes gyms along the way.
i so miss the traditional chinooks, looking at 2003 to 2006 used ones after seeing this. still the one and only class b to own, but size and quality in the older coaches are second to none
Hi Mike! I was wondering why you didn’t say what the MSRP of the van, it would be nice to know what the starting point is when you’re doing your videos.
I'm glad Chinook is back on the market, i had one years ago and loved it. I just wish class b manufacturers would understand what van lifers want in a rig. NO we don't want TV, sat tv, generator or a dry shower. We would rather have permanent mounted internet Starlink, at least 200 of lithium charged by a beefy alternator and solar. And more storage for gear. This day and age AGM batteries shouldn't be in a coach, even in cold climates.
In the 80s, a friend of mine was a Chinook dealer in Irvine, CA. When he needed a coach brought down from Yakima, WA where they made at that point, I would fly up, pick his unit up, and drive it back to California. They were a dream to drive. A few years later, he picked the Country Coach class A's line, and I would do the same from Junction City, Oregon. Again, they were a dream to drive. I have to tell you, I miss those days.
Unless I am overlooking it they need more kitchen counter space. Even with the pop up extra prep space. Imo they should have a model where one of the long couches is shorter (preferably the one next to the kitchen sink) so that extra counter space & storage space is possible.
Very nice it's got everything you need. Not a big fan of the bed but it would work. I like the bathroom it's nice and you don't usually find a bathroom of that size in a camper Van. But I really like it probably the best one I have seen. Thank You for showing it and have a great day.
Chinook is back with an amazing Class B! How innovative with two long couches and AGM batteries. My gosh, it is 2023! Instead of dusting off old floor plans, maybe look Custom vans and European style for innovation.
Can we upgrade solar and batteries? What about adding a fold down sink in the shower? Can we opt for propane? Do we need generator for microwave and cooktop?
Needs a better sink and faucet, like a stainless deep bowl and high rise faucet. Also, a cassette toilet rather than the black tank system. Why don’t they vent the truma underneath rather than on the side? One more, get rid of genny and add 300 amp or so battery. Other than those few things, a quite well sorted out van and layout. Good storage and versatility
I would just seal the side door and install a longer galley countertop. Easy enough to get in and out of the backdoor. No reason to have two doors on a coach of this size.
The tour was excellent. I would swap the separated bathroom for a shorter van because of how and where I'd be using it. I don't need such a luxurious build, but it sure is ... amazing! I wondered about the fan... MaxxAir would be my choice. I'd want a toilet that didn't involve black water. I'd also want small window(s) I could open. I just learned about security glass protection systems ("Buydecorativefilm" or "Nidojp" brands) that make it safer to own any live-aboard vehicle. Chinook might consider adding that protection as an extra. Thanks.
Your asking for a custom build for you. I might take issue with Chinook's marketing and a lack of quality in the Maverick cabinets i saw, not the minute component choices if this model, unless they are inferior quality for the size. Sizing down is always a tradeoff of inches dedicated for X item. Id prefer this design over your imaginery one..and its quality in the build that you should consider in this particular design model.
Add a cassette toilet, radiant floor heat, bring the water lines inside like the Winnebago Nautilus, shorten the chassis like the Dodge Ram 2500, bed is weird.....good start back in the B vans
I like the two doors the way they are. My cousins were in a van accident and because there was only one door and awning style windows, none of them survived. It is a good safety feature
Just an FYI, I could not find a Ford place that would even change my oil in Co. They all said my van was too big. I had to drive 4 hours to find a place
I’ve always, always, Always wanted a Chinook RV since back in the day, once I could afford one, couldn’t find one, glad to see them back on the market, gotta start saving again! Am sorta shocked to see the batteries AND generator underneath exposed to road crud, floods, puddles, tar, couldn’t figure out why that was a good idea (?)
This rig would work as a daily driver for a large family if they fixed a few things. There is no excuse for not incorporating a sink in the toilet area. A flip down model in the shower wouldn’t take much space or expense. There is a reason the health department makes restaurants have a separate hand washing sink from the food and dish sink. They could also find a way to add seatbelts to the benches to make the coach family friendly. I’d take it over any of the SUV’s.
I didn't notice that it didn't have a sink. The sink would take away from the toilet area, and they probably didn't want something plastic in their RV.
I love the layout of the Chinook, and I think it's on my short list too, only question I have. if it had a lithium option and how big are the batteries.I really enjoy your videos up the good work
Overall I love it , Chinook is a great coach. I Love the dry bath But,I hate the kitchen setup. Didn't even show the second shelf under the sink. Love the Ford transit. I love the Truma. Does it come with Lithium batteries? Does it have a DC to DC charger? They say it's off-road but that awning it would catch every branch and it would be just a matter of time before it's torn off!!!
If you think this awning is in a bad location, check out Drifter Vans. One of their vans has it mounted about 20 inches forward of this one. It just looks terrible.
@saltyhorizons My first thought was the stinky slinky. It's the lowest point on the back end. The lid will get torn off and your stinky slinky will be laying on a highway with hundreds of others and you won't know it until you need to empty your tanks.
The Transit does have adaptive CC, although they are only currently building the Bayside on the Transit, not the MB Sprinter. Perhaps they'll add the Sprinter option in the new model year. If so, we'll review. Thx for watching. -Mike
Sure - the Truma Combi is air and hot water from one smart appliance. The water tank is integrated into the furnace for hot air and hot water. You can of course turn off the furnace functionality during warmer months. The heater vent is located under the sofa and I believe another one toward the rear of the coach as well.
You said you had lots to say re fridge. Great size on it. I have a feeling it also doesn’t need to be on level parking to work.(?). Not sure I heard you gal. Of fresh water tank. I didn’t see a screen for the back when the back doors are open. Lastly, the shade, that to me is a no. I wish it had the same type as the other windows. Very good job explaining!
Did I miss something or is there no sink to wash hands after going to the bathroom? Literally need to turn on the shower? That is a deal breaker for myself and especially for my wife...
Are there screens for the side and back doors? I didn’t see storage for your out camp stuff…..grill, chairs, table and other stuff. ?……..I’m guessing you need a tray or box that hooks into rear receiver? I’m new to the B class, so thanks for help! dr
I have a yod with Mars at the aspect. I’m not a public figure but my life was like you described in the reading. What book were you reading from? I would like to do more research and do a 2nd progressed chart for myself. I can feel another change coming.
How much ? This is never included and throws people off. Learnig about the insvestment on these vehicles keeps viewers interested and wanting to continue considering !
I like the layout, plus I don’t cook, so I have no problem with the kitchen! The comments are very harsh! Why comment rude if you are not going to buy??
No open windows was the first negative, 2nd was the kitchen having to put the cook top on the extended drop leaf is not practical, nor safe. 3rd is the bed configuration, for a single traveler, make one bed a true twin size, and either delete the second or make it to fill in the difference to make a full size. 4th is there doesn't appear to be many electrical outlets or charging plugs. Thank you for your very detailed tour and information.
Very nice one but if it was for one person Id make the middle couch a twin or full and certain length and add a small dresser under the tv and take some of that space on the other side and do a closet to hang clothes in and a small dining area Overall love the look just need more space and more storage
I can't help but think that you are related to John Travolta because you look so much like him including your overall body type, your voice and mannerisms
I am looking for a Class B that I can carry my motorcycle inside the van. The space in the bathroom area looks fine, but between the two twin bed/couches looked a little tight and the possibility of placing mooring points for the front and back wheels looks like it would destroy the current flooring. It looks like I would have to tow the motorcycle in a carrier if I got this camper instead of the Adventure Vans I have been looking at as well. Am I right?
What an eclectic design. Who thinks of these layouts? Amazing features with good tank sizes, heated tanks, huge bathroom and fridge/freezer which lend themselves to people who will spend a lot of time living in the van yet there is no prep space for cooking. I just don't get it. Also, not thrilled about having to make the bed everyday. Not sure how long this model will last. Love the features, but would not be able to live in such a design. Good luck to Chinook on this one.
The fact that it’s on a Ford chassis is crucial to me. I’m ONLY in the market for a camper van on a Ford Transit or Dodge Promaster platform and won’t even consider any Mercedes-Benz based ones.
This is a well-made thought camper van. Toilets should be at the rear end. It's more spacious, well vent with immediate exhaust of smelly things. And can extend outwards for shower. Can also be point of entry from being in muddy dirty clothes. Buy this van. It's well made. Any van with a mid-section toilet is a fool. Too cramp and smells the entire interior. Another option should be that beds should be in hydraulics that left up to the van ceiling. The van roof should have a slight hump to store the bed into it. It will look plush. And when needing the bed, just press a button and the bed goes down. This provides more space for a lounging area. Always setting up a bed is time consuming.
Love the fact that the shower is separate from the commode.
I love it accept for the fact that the windows do not appear to open. That would be a deal breaker for me for sure!
Are you sure? That is odd. That would be a deal breaker for me, too, if so.
It has an eye-level microwave/convection oven-yaay! And a very decent freezer drawer!
Every RV review needs to tell you which windows open and which don’t. I do not want to camp without opening windows.
You can always google the manufacturer specs and get your answer
Almost every van has the same paint scheme.
Using black paint to make it look like there are large windows running the length of the van. I don’t understand why they do this. Who do they think they’re fooling.
It looks stupid and fake to me!
I don’t care for the yellow main color. No bathroom sink and windows not opening are also no no’s. Also batteries are inaccessible for me and exposed to the weather. Also no on the kitchen faucet. No to the water pump switch being inside a cabinet door.
Forward slanting upper cabinets have unusable upper area leaning out. 8 gal
Black tank would fill in 3/4 days.
Also no way to add fresh water to tank when boondocking.
Rear door plan has potential for innovative floor plans but this design needs work.

I’d rather have more leg room to poop 😁😁🥳🥳

@@jabreck1934 I agree...we had to use a toaster oven in our Airstream which was almost more trouble then it was worth until the piping hot cookies were served...
Why would you want to bake any junks?
The kitchen space is a great trade off for the beds and dry bath. Nice work.
Love this floor plan and equipment. But need windows that open or included screens for back and sliding door..
Oh and terrible location for water heater exhaust
Exactly what I am looking for. Wet bath is a deal killer and this is capable of towing my Jeep TJ.
Love wetbath, no wasted inside space. Most showers outside faucet, bathing suit for most,then put on moomoo, to get the private places. or sometimes gyms along the way.
Not wet bath. Has dry bath

Hi Mike! I was wondering why you didn’t say what the MSRP of the van, it would be nice to know what the starting point is when you’re doing your videos.
@RobertGBurke 😄😄😄😄
All the ones we’ve looked at recently average between $160,000 to $210,000…

They can use the Legun table as a work area since there are two.
Lagoon table
Great floor plan & quality - and well-done tour. Thank you!
Love the dry bath 👍

Chinook is back with an amazing Class B! How innovative with two long couches and AGM batteries. My gosh, it is 2023! Instead of dusting off old floor plans, maybe look Custom vans and European style for innovation.
At this price point, not having at least 600AH of Lithium is pathetic. Some people long for the good old days. If so, maybe they’d prefer wet cells?
What is the price range?
Can we upgrade solar and batteries? What about adding a fold down sink in the shower? Can we opt for propane? Do we need generator for microwave and cooktop?

No room again with bed set up so you have to set up and take down each time 😂😂
It's a van dear - duh!
Add a cassette toilet, radiant floor heat, bring the water lines inside like the Winnebago Nautilus, shorten the chassis like the Dodge Ram 2500, bed is weird.....good start back in the B vans
Cassette toilet would be a big no for me. What is weird about bed?
I’d definitely like to see more cassette toilet out there
Guess Chinook figured people need the bigger bathroom alot more than the need to cook.
There's an interesting thought. :) -Mike
I didn't know this brand. It's very nice. Thank you for your review.
I like the two doors the way they are. My cousins were in a van accident and because there was only one door and awning style windows, none of them survived. It is a good safety feature
There are 5 doors on this van !
Just an FYI, I could not find a Ford place that would even change my oil in Co. They all said my van was too big. I had to drive 4 hours to find a place
Beautiful coach! I’m very impressed with this Chinook. Love it 👍👌
Awesome … great tour ! Thanks for sharing ❤
Love the Chinook, Love the dry bath in a B-class the price is the down side most B-class motor homes our very costly
I’ve always, always, Always wanted a Chinook RV since back in the day, once I could afford one, couldn’t find one, glad to see them back on the market, gotta start saving again!
Am sorta shocked to see the batteries AND generator underneath exposed to road crud, floods, puddles, tar, couldn’t figure out why that was a good idea (?)
Great tour, thanks, it really helped!
Love your videos, they are always so informative!
Am sold on the Chinook. I think I like this one better than the maverick. Just works better foe me n my dog. Love your videos thank you❤🎉
Unfortunately, the van doesn’t have the solar and generator that I want, but it is nice. Thanks for the video.
Thx for watching. -Mike
I loved the old style Chinook's more personality.
This rig would work as a daily driver for a large family if they fixed a few things. There is no excuse for not incorporating a sink in the toilet area.

very nice chinook!!! its not an all kitchen cabinet van,other brands have 2 3 burner large sink😅 and no room for 🪑🪑🪑🪑🪑 🛏️🛏️🛏️🛏️,this van was perfect
Mike ... How about prices, new and used!
Great job showing us this really nice Class B!
I love the layout of the Chinook, and I think it's on my short list too, only question I have. if it had a lithium option and how big are the batteries.I really enjoy your videos up the good work
Tom - it does have a lithium option with 630 Ahr plus 3000 watt inverter and 12v AC unit; -Mike
You might have one sold with that comment.
I love the size! I would like the bed/couch to be behind the driver’s seat with seatbelts so you can take a group of friends for an evening adventure.
Always wondered why these RV's never had a dry bath in the back of the van. This is nice!
Would be great for Ford to add their inverter package on the transit and you could do away with the gen set.
If it had a slide where the ladder is I'm sold.
Awesome job on the intro.............Thanks.
Thiank you, a great tour of the van!
I loved it what’s the price just as you shown??? Never price I’m new to this but I’m looking for a van I can live in ..
Not having windows that open is a real negative. Nice size fridge and freezer...need my ice cubes!
Very nice, do they also have options for generator delete, and Lithium Ion option?
Great job ❤
Thanks Mike great video 👍👍
Love the dry bath. Do the beds underneath need to be slated for ventilation?
So…. Where do you SHAVE ???
Overall I love it , Chinook is a great coach. I Love the dry bath But,I hate the kitchen setup. Didn't even show the second shelf under the sink. Love the Ford transit. I love the Truma. Does it come with Lithium batteries? Does it have a DC to DC charger? They say it's off-road but that awning it would catch every branch and it would be just a matter of time before it's torn off!!!
@saltyhorizons after watching the video again I agree 100%....
No one is taking an extended Ford van off road. In fact going in and out of step driveways will bottom out the rear of that van.
If you think this awning is in a bad location, check out Drifter Vans. One of their vans has it mounted about 20 inches forward of this one. It just looks terrible.
@saltyhorizons My first thought was the stinky slinky. It's the lowest point on the back end. The lid will get torn off and your stinky slinky will be laying on a highway with hundreds of others and you won't know it until you need to empty your tanks.
Great vid!
Nice if it was still available with a 3.2 diesel and adaptive cruise control I would buy one.
The Transit does have adaptive CC, although they are only currently building the Bayside on the Transit, not the MB Sprinter. Perhaps they'll add the Sprinter option in the new model year. If so, we'll review. Thx for watching. -Mike
Terrific tours my appreciate your concise instructions
Of course the best question is what is the very best discount price available for this?
Do any of the windows open?
this is my dream van its perfect
Love it , want one!!!
Very nice, how much?, I missed that.
$185.000
Could you explain how the Truma works in more detail please? Also did I miss where the heater vent was located? Thank you! Impressive RV.
Sure - the Truma Combi is air and hot water from one smart appliance. The water tank is integrated into the furnace for hot air and hot water. You can of course turn off the furnace functionality during warmer months. The heater vent is located under the sofa and I believe another one toward the rear of the coach as well.

A great quality van
I like the dry bathroom,but where's the bathroom sink? Needs a sink!
Did I miss something or is there no sink to wash hands after going to the bathroom? Literally need to turn on the shower? That is a deal breaker for myself and especially for my wife...
Are there screens for the side and back doors?
I didn’t see storage for your out camp stuff…..grill, chairs, table and other stuff. ?……..I’m guessing you need a tray or box that hooks into rear receiver?
I’m new to the B class, so thanks for help!

I have a yod with Mars at the aspect. I’m not a public figure but my life was like you described in the reading. What book were you reading from? I would like to do more research and do a 2nd progressed chart for myself. I can feel another change coming.
How much ? This is never included and throws people off. Learnig about the insvestment on these vehicles keeps viewers interested and wanting to continue considering !
Fair question, and I did a video addressing this: ua-cam.com/video/bZw3iQQ0UBE/v-deo.html
I don’t think anyone buys much old fashioned coke bottles but i think it opens beer bottles.
Yep. -Mike
Nice rig but without the windows opening it is a no go for me!
On the bed aka sofa. You can make more storage underneath them . How much does these go for? I wish that the windows can open and have screens .
Nice rv
I like the layout, plus I don’t cook, so I have no problem with the kitchen! The comments are very harsh! Why comment rude if you are not going to buy??
Thanks @sadierayborn. We're doing the best we can to provide info. -Mike
I’ve read critique, not rude.
No open windows was the first negative, 2nd was the kitchen having to put the cook top on the extended drop leaf is not practical, nor safe. 3rd is the bed configuration, for a single traveler, make one bed a true twin size, and either delete the second or make it to fill in the difference to make a full size. 4th is there doesn't appear to be many electrical outlets or charging plugs. Thank you for your very detailed tour and information.
Otherwise Perfect 👍 (...for others)
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You had me at coke bottle-opener
Is there a screen to cover the opening if you leave the sliding door open for fresh air?
Specs?? Water/holding tank capacities? A/C on batteries? Double alternator for charging house batteries? Water filter? 4 season?
What is the CCC after the fresh water and gas tanks are full?
Very nice one but if it was for one person Id make the middle couch a twin or full and certain length and add a small dresser under the tv and take some of that space on the other side and do a closet to hang clothes in and a small dining area Overall love the look just need more space and more storage
Thx for the feedback. -Mike
$150,000 for a class B? WTF!!
This rig is probably 200k
Thank you.
Loving the videos. Even drone shots now! Fantastic!
Awesome!
Are there seat belts for more than the two up front?
First RV experience was a Cascadia by Chinook!
Love the dry bath!
What's a dry bath 29:21
It would be nice to know right up front what type of mileage each Class B gets
Are there seat belts on the bench or only a 2 person vehicle?
I can't help but think that you are related to John Travolta because you look so much like him including your overall body type, your voice and mannerisms
Does this model have seat belts for any additional passengers?
Are the only windows that open the chassis door windows?
I am looking for a Class B that I can carry my motorcycle inside the van. The space in the bathroom area looks fine, but between the two twin bed/couches looked a little tight and the possibility of placing mooring points for the front and back wheels looks like it would destroy the current flooring. It looks like I would have to tow the motorcycle in a carrier if I got this camper instead of the Adventure Vans I have been looking at as well. Am I right?
Regular drivers license is ok for that ?
What an eclectic design. Who thinks of these layouts? Amazing features with good tank sizes, heated tanks, huge bathroom and fridge/freezer which lend themselves to people who will spend a lot of time living in the van yet there is no prep space for cooking. I just don't get it. Also, not thrilled about having to make the bed everyday. Not sure how long this model will last. Love the features, but would not be able to live in such a design. Good luck to Chinook on this one.
I really like this van. Dose it come in the 360 option?😎🇺🇸☠️✌🏻
So I wonder what the trade off was for only 8 gallons of black tank?
My best guess - weight, and space. -Mike
The fact that it’s on a Ford chassis is crucial to me. I’m ONLY in the market for a camper van on a Ford Transit or Dodge Promaster platform and won’t even consider any Mercedes-Benz based ones.
This is a well-made thought camper van. Toilets should be at the rear end. It's more spacious, well vent with immediate exhaust of smelly things. And can extend outwards for shower. Can also be point of entry from being in muddy dirty clothes. Buy this van. It's well made. Any van with a mid-section toilet is a fool. Too cramp and smells the entire interior. Another option should be that beds should be in hydraulics that left up to the van ceiling. The van roof should have a slight hump to store the bed into it. It will look plush. And when needing the bed, just press a button and the bed goes down. This provides more space for a lounging area. Always setting up a bed is time consuming.
