I love how tidy you keep everything, I am a stickler for tidiness in our trailer. It makes life so much better!
Thank you! Yes, it totally makes life better and especially in a small space! Thanks for watching!😃
A power nap improves learning and memory, prevents stress, boosts mood and creativity, helps jump start productivity and alertness, and even helps lower your risk for heart disease. So, if she wants to take a nap...
Minerva, thanks for the nudges there ;) Napping can be great!! - Chris
Great tour and I’m loving looking through your back catalogue of videos. Not sure why it’s taken so long for UA-cam to recommend this channel to me
Thank you. We've only been on YT for about 6 months now. It is tough to grow here for sure, but we are having fun with it. Thanks for checking out the channel!
Suggestion for added tank capacity. Move the spare tire to a bumper mount and you can add another tank we’re the tire was. Either Black gray or combined You can add addition fresh water in a 5 gallon bottle that you carry in van.
That's a great suggestion. Thank you! We are definitely looking into adding tank capacity.
Thank you so much for inviting us into your home and sharing its features. Happy trails!
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!😃
Great tour! So impressed with your storage solutions and how you make all of this work!
Thanks for sharing
Noelle
We continue to get a little better as time goes on :)
Beautiful camper van ! A bit small (especially the width) so for me, there would be too many compromises with tank capacity, storage, etc., but for a weekend or longer trip I can see this being awesome. For me, the sweet spot would be a 25' twin bed Globetrotter behind a F-250 and using the truck bed for additional messy storage and a generator. I did a couple of years in a Class A and similar to this van, the convenience is unsurpassed. Thank you for sharing.
Yes, all those things make it hard to full time in a class b for sure! That would be a sweet set up with the Globetrotter and Ford! Thanks for watching!
13:30 I'm amazed that a nice unit like the Air stream Interstate doesn't come with convection cook tops.
26:28 And taking your time is part of rving...just relaxing down the hwy.
I wouldn't doubt if we see them coming with the induction soon...... We have a portable single induction now and really like it. We still use the propane while boondocking and sometimes Chris even has all three burners going! - Thanks for watching! - Aaron

I didn't know the closet door could be used as a lounge door! I love that capability so much!
Great tour! Has there been any wear of materials that you didn't expect or that you would protect against if you were to buy again?
Hello again! The light color magic suede walls are the big one. Especially in the kitchen right next to the stove and the sink. It does not do well with anything wet, like grease, cooking splatter, or food spills. But everything else is holding up really well, like the Ultra leather and glossy cabinet fronts. You can pretty much wipe up and clean anything and not tell you spilled on it. Like red wine!🍷
@@IreneIronTravels Thanks for the reply and answers!
What a great rig. I love the way y'all use the space. ~carol
Thank you! It is a small space but is a great way to travel and see this beautiful country! - Aaron
Great tour! We are in the middle of redoing some of the things in our tiny camper before we start phase 2 of our hit the road adventure. Our table is a terrible design and takes up way more of our tiny space than it should - so we are redesigning that. That was really smart of you to remove the TV - I think it is funny many campers put in huge TV systems in their campers - I am thinking TV is the last thing I want to do when I can explore a new place. A 6 foot by 6 foot by 6 foot bed room area it looks like - since Aaron can stand in your bedroom and hey its bigger than a New York City studio bedroom! Love the photo of Aaron hard at work - that was really funny! Great tour and review! You guys have been at this a long time - good job!
Noelle
Removing the TV helped open our space SO MUCH :)
Hard core minimalists
🤙
Great tour guys! We loved seeing how everything works! 😄
Thanks! This version was more in-depth than the real life walk through, lol.
Great review on the rig. I have a 2019 AI GT, bought it new in March and now have 23k miles on it. A couple of quick, easy and relatively cheap mods: The kitchen sink and the toilet. That marine sink is terrible, so I replaced it with a round 17” stainless steel sink (that fits perfectly) and drilled a hole to install a nice faucet with a sprayer. We also found a wooden cutting board that nestles into the sink perfectly. And I’m also 6’2”, and sitting down in the wet bath is easier to shower, but that flimsy plastic seat is uncomfortable. You can get a nice ceramic toilet to replace it, with a wooden soft-close seat, a very easy modification. Either of these mods cost less than $200, and can be done in 2 hours.
Thank you! Wow, 23k in less than a year... you are moving! I always, thought there might be an easy drop in sink that would fit but I haven't looked yet. Would you happen to have a model or number on your sink? I'll also look into the toilet... that would make it feel a lot nicer in there for sure. Thanks for the ideas! Have you seen the 2020 AI GT's yet?? I'm trying to get to one at a dealer to put out a video on one soon.
I got the info on the sink and the toilet, along with instructions, on the AI Facebook page. If you can’t find it there, I can send you what I bought from Amazon. Speaking of Amazon, I thought about waiting and buying a 2020 to get the Mercedes vehicle updates (especially adaptive cruise control), but I had heard Amazon was buying almost every one produced, so I haven’t even seen one. I’m made lots of mods to customize it for my wife and me, and on the technical side I’d recommend a tire pressure monitoring system (mine is wireless and solar powered) and a wireless OBDII scan tool to monitor the engine numbers (instead of just idiot lights). I like to know what’s going on with the rig.
Thank you, I'll check out the FB page. If you look on RV trader for 2020 AI 24 GT, there are a few out now. Besides the 2019 Sprinter, Airstream finally updated the interior. Looks very nice. I'll look into the tire pressure monitors. I should get a OBII bluetooth module for on $20 that reads off our radio we have. Thanks for tips!
Very informative and helpful. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Like like like . You guys are real. Thanks
Thank you! And thanks for checking out the tour😃
Thanks for covering your Airstream. I loved the details you covered.
Glad you enjoyed the tour, thanks for watching! - Chris
I’m wanting something like this so bad. The only complaint I have is the small shower and the price.
Thanks for watching. I can say you get used to the small shower and you really appreciate a big one when you get to use one. And for price my advice is to shop used and in the off season. Late fall and winter.
Great tour guys 👍
Thank you! It was fun to do....... turned out to be 90 minutes of recording..... Lots to go over in a little van! 😃
Great tour video!!
Very informative and interesting to see how you make it work.
I’m thinking about purchasing a Class B in next few years.
Questions -
Did you consider any other options for RVs?
The Pleasure Way Plateau is very similar but has the opposite floor plan with kitchen on the other side and feels a little more open.
They also have a Front Lounge model.
Did you buy new?
Did you finance?
Spare tire?
Do you need to winterize?
Expensive to insure?
Where is your fav destination so far?!
Thank you! Class b's are a great way to travel/live and I hope you get one soon! All great questions.... I'm planning a video on our buying process and experience. I researched class B's for about 18 months and here a few we seriously considered. Road Trek CS Adventurous, RT Zion, Hymer Activ, Pleasure way Lexor and Plateau and the Winnebago ERA. Many pros and cons....... but what was important to us was 1.layout and quality, 2. tank sizes, 3. Electrical. We bought ours outright, so a huge factor was also the right DEAL as many things can be upgraded. So I was mainly looking at used, 1 to 5 years old. Save a lot on depreciation each year, 20-30%. Airstream is nice because the spare tire is underneath by the generator and not on the back doors. We winterized when we bought it and drove from FL back to MN in December. There are tank heaters on board but in temps under 30 degrees your pipes will freeze. So...... we stay in the nice temps mostly! Sunny and 70 right? Insurance can vary but we have progressive good coverage for around $800 per year. So many great places in the US, but our favorite destination is NYC! Check that video out if you haven't. Thanks for watching!
Irene Iron Fitness thanks so much for the great responses Irene -I just found your channel a few weeks ago and immediately subscribed.
I’m in LA and was also considering an Airstream trailer but the convenience of a Class B for parking and tighter campsites is persuading me to focus on Class B.
Airstream and Pleasureway are in the lead!
Really looking forward to your video on researching the various pros and cons on different manufactures and the buying process!
Yes, that's right you commented on our NYC video. We just loved the vibe from all the people. We're in the west coast now and ofcourse love cali too. I would also love the space of a airstream trailer....... but it is something special to be all self contained in a van like this. Go, sleep, eat, travel, live and be anywhere!
23:00 i need that automatic start generator and built in tanks
They are nice!
Just found you guys! I'm hooked. I'm picking up on 04 AirStream Interstate tomorrow and have been enjoying your videos.
Hello! So happy for your exciting day tomorrow! We also looked at that model year of AI's and really liked them a lot. Love the look of the older body. We happened to find a really good deal on our 14' so we flew to Florida and got it. Appreciate you watching!
@@IreneIronTravels Thanks! the guy just sold it out from under me. I guess it's back to the drawing board.
😳 Oh, no way! Hot market right now..... Well, it might be for the best. Our first deal fell through also, and it turned out to be a great thing as the next deal saved us a bunch. Good luck on the next one!
@@IreneIronTravels yes I agree. It will turn out for the best. I’ll continue to live vicariously through you two! Thanks for responding. You guys are good people.
Take out the cabinet that she puts her clothes in and get fabric spray paint spray the blinds black you'll love it a lot more back there
that's a practical distance rate
Hi Chris and Aaron;
Thanks for your video. I see your RV is a little bit over 23' in length. What has been your experience on parking, specially at cities like NY, Boston? I am been looking on smaller RVs as I am afraid parking may be an issue. Thanks for your comments and advice...
Luis
Hello! We have had a really good experience parking our mid sized Sprinter almost everywhere. But, the key in a standard spot is we have to hang our back end over the curb so we don't stick out. Street parking in metered spots are generally good as well as big big parking lots are no problem. In the big cities we either did street parking or payed lot parking and didn't really have any problems. It's more in the small touristy towns like Sedona, AZ or any of the small parking lots like you would see at a Trader Joes. A few other areas that are tough are small trailheads or just really busy popular areas. A good rule of thumb is you will have zero problems in a 19' or 20' van, our size van takes a little planning/circling but usually find a spot, and the 25' vans will limit you to big parking lots, double spots, or large street parking. But, it is doable in all sizes! We see a lot of them all out here.
Amazing channel, love the airstream.
What jobs did you both leave?
Why does Chris do all the driving?
Thank you! Chris was a senior director of operations at an advertising company and I worked in management and sales for an auto parts company. Big change for us! Health and fitness was always a side passion and Chris loves to cook! We climbed the corporate ladders but became less and less fulfilled. As far as driving....... Chris just really likes it. And I don't mind being a passanger! Thanks for watching! - Aaron
As usual, a great video!!
You can add a Lagun Table setup for Aaron in the front as well. If you put one in the back you will just need the adapter fro the front as well. Have you also thought about getting a separate portable ac/dc compressor fridge/freezer that will fit in the back with the bed down? Another question I had was how different is the ride after changing to those tires?
I'm gonna just go buy the 2020 AI GT!😂 Your right, it probably wouldn't be too hard or expensive. Make a good video too!
Our back is crammed full with our tent and fitness gear.... so no room for a fridge back there. If ours ever craps out I would look into putting a bigger one in. Maybe in the larger pantry closet. We drove back 1500 miles from FL when we bought it and had then had two tires start leaking right away. Probably from the cold in MN, but they only had 24,000 miles but were very cracked from the FL sun. I can't say I noticed a huge difference in the ride, except maybe a little louder. And now 10k latter a little louder again, only above 45 mph. But, I really like them and man it feels good to have new rubber on a vehicle. I also considered the Michelins... but am glad we got the AT tires.
Irene Iron Fitness Yes indeed. We have a lounge so we have the two chairs behind the driver. As soon as I figure out where to put it in the front, i am doing it!!
Beautiful couple!!
Can I ask you guys what "stereo/screen" do you have installed?
Thank you!
Thank you! It is a 10.1 inch Android based radio by Joying. It is really nice so far.... kinda like a big tablet on our dash that we can download any Android app we want. We mainly use google maps for navigation and Spotify for music. Here is the link for Amazon if you want to check it out. JOYING 10.1 Android Car Stereo: amzn.to/2OYKm8G
Thanks for watching!
Every month you got a new van
Don't know how you do it. For me alone, full time, it would be too small. Especially the toilets / shower.
It can be tough at times! But we love the freedom! Thanks for watching.
Thanks for info!
Very nice 👍👌 set up
Thank you!
Nice van and nice couple
Thanks!😀👍
Thank you for this great innovation, I like and I want it
Wh want to have excellent TV and wireless internet service. What services / systems do yo recommend. FYI, In our home we have DISH TV and High speed internet with Comcast. Thanks again. Josie.
We don't have any TV services, but you can get a roof mounted satellite from Dish or Wingard. We get our highspeed internet from a Verizon jetpack with unlimited 4g. Verizon has really good nationwide coverage and always us to work and stream from the road with ease. Here is a video talking more about it. ua-cam.com/video/QdSrRxlRu-0/v-deo.html
PRETTY! BUT PRETTY EXPENSIVE! GREAT QUALITY!👍
Thanks for watching 😊
Could you show us your screen for the door. Instructions on how you made it.
Are there seatbelts in the back? If so how many passengers can have belts? Do you talk in another video about why only one of you drives instead of switching off? BTW, nice channel!
Hello! Yes, there are 4 seat belts in the back of our van. We just have them tucked under because we don't use them. Airstream makes a 6, 7, and a 9 seater for more passengers! We do talk a little more about driving in the end of our driving in the rockies video. ua-cam.com/video/p4mFKKN8hc0/v-deo.html
Bottom line is she's controlling! J/k! Thanks for watching! 😃
Only 1000 watt inverter? Do you find that limits you?
Ya, it does a little. It was the min we wanted to go with but does mostly everything up to our water kettle. More limiting is our batteries. Tough for us to boondock longer than a couple days........ When we upgrade to lithium we will upgrade the inverter also to a 3000w. So expensive!🤑 ( Aaron)
Is there an opportunity for a Lagun mount on the wall up front to create a more convenient work space?
Hello! Yes, I think one could get creative and put a mount there. The new 2020's actually just started putting one there. It's pretty sweet! We haven't really done much for mods on our first year.... but I think we'll look more closely at things to customize this year! Thanks for watching! - Aaron👍
Fabulous video. You two are naturals. We have a 2019 19' van and still learning how to use it. We have struggled with the batteries and keeping enough charge to run the refrigerator while boondocking. Do you do much boondocking? Do you have any suggestions how you manage that? I follow the Airstream Interstate page on facebook. A lot of people get the Goal Zero to add battery power for the refrigerator.
After watching your video, I now have Space envy.
Thank you
Thank you for complement! Your right its tough to boondock in an AI. They just aren't set up with enough battery capacity for more than a day or so. Especially if you run a lot of other electronics. The 2019 interstates just started putting 4 batteries in instead of 2. Upgrading ours was a must. We only boondock for a couple days before getting pretty low. Plus water and tank capacities make it tough. Do you have solar? The external lithium packs like a goal zero are an option to help. Have you considered upgrading your batteries? Its nice to not bring on another thing, especially when we don't have much space in a van! (Aaron)
Great video! I'll be checking out your in depth kitchen tour next. The bedroom door is a great feature. I have 2 questions if you don't mind. 1) what is the head unit you have in the cab area? Is it stock or aftermarket? 2) do you use your A/C often and if so how well does it work for you?
Thank you! I replaced the original 7 inch kenwood after it stopped working. I put in a 10.1 inch Joying brand. Its basically a big Android pad with google maps and any other app you want. We like it.$400 instead of $600 to $1000 for others. The AC we do use at the RV parks a lot. It is loud, but it does have a low setting on it. Wish it had 5 or so settings for speeds. Funny, we covered this in the 60 minute filming we did but I cut the video down under 30 min. Sooooooo much to cover!😀
@@IreneIronTravels Awesome! Thanks for replying so quickly. Head unit looks nice! I just recently put a similar android pad type unit in one of our vehicles, we like it so far. Though since the install, seems to possibly be slowly pulling power from the car causing it to die. We figured to just lock the car from key fob when were parked at home and haven't had that problem since.
We are feeling a little in different with our A/C unit and if it works properly for us. Seems like when it gets 90-95 degrees the coach doesn't cool off too much. Ours is very loud as well. We still have to play with it more to really have a good idea. Appreciate your feedback!🙂
You might be right on your head unit. Ours dosen't have a power off button, just a sleep button. I think it draws also, but hasn't been an issue for us with our solar and also being hooked up in the RV parks all the time. Vans are tough in any temp over 90 for sure. Windows and poor insulation.....just not the same as a house. Ours works fine, but its not fun to be 2 feet from it 24/7 running! The door helps to close off rooms too. And shade.
Great video! Enjoyed the tour! Heard about you from Amber with Story Chasing. Can you park in a regular parking space?
Thanks, Sandra! We appreciate you checking us out. Amber is great, she is such a ray of sunshine!
We can fit into a regular space with a few criteria met: 1) we have to back in so our rear tail hangs over the curb 2) the curb has to be low enough for our tail to clear it 3) the area behind curb has to be free from obstructions like sign poles, trees, and shrubs.
Our length is just a couple feet longer than a standard pick up truck so we will stick out a little bit if we don't reverse in as described above. - Chris
Great video
Thanks!
Why in the hell would you take out the TV? I mean, you paid for it when you bought the van.
Do you ever cook and drive at the same time? Is it even possible?
Great Video! Why have one person do all the driving? Must be exhausting.
Thanks! Chris really likes driving and I don't mind being a passenger. We try to keep travel days to a few hours and driving a class b is less taxing than a Class A or big TT and truck. (I imagine) Could change in the future... but for now it still works!
Thank you so much for a great video. Cant wait to watch all the others. We are about to buy a used 2017, AI- 3500 ext which we HOPE is a great deal at $124,000 and only 6,000 miles. What do you think. This is our first adventure into the RV world. I have a question anoint TV service and wireless internet service that I will post separately. Thanks again. Josit
Hello, thanks for watching! It certainly is a sellers market right now and that brings the RV prices up a bit. I always watch RV trader nationwide, just to get a good idea. You can save sometimes $10,000 just by traveling to another state. (Which we did). www.rvtrader.com/Airstream-Interstate/rvs-for-sale?make=Airstream%7C2241758&model=INTERSTATE%7C764828514&sort=price%3Aasc&page=2
Where did you purchase your. Silver mesh baskets. By your sink / stove. ?
I think we got that one at a Homes Goods Store, but they do sell similar ones on Amazon too. amzn.to/3FBtnlY
Chris, why do you do all the driving?
Chris just really likes driving and doesn't do well in the passenger seat. I don't mind either!
good video. what about the nav system im the cockpit? is it after market?
Hey there. Thank you! It is a 10.1 inch Android based radio by Joying. It is really nice so far.... kinda like a big tablet on our dash that we can download any Android app we want. We mainly use google maps for navigation and Spotify for music. Here is the link for Amazon if you want to check it out. JOYING 10.1 Android Car Stereo: amzn.to/2OYKm8G
Thanks for watching!
Do y’all change your own oil or do you have Mercedes do it
I had MB do it. It only cost $135. You'd pay atleast $100 just to buy the oil and filter at a parts store. Also, the hassle of carrying a oil drain pan with us and disposing of the used oil. But, I like to do most myself for sure. Air filter, cabin filter, fuel filter, def fluid and such....
Watch out for service A and service B at a dealer though..... been quoted up to $800.
Great tour of your rig. How do you keep the cooking odor in check in the rig?
Before you decided on the Interstate. Have you considered the other comparable brands like Leisure Travel (my favorite) and Pleasure Way.? If so, what are something you didn't like about them? Is Chris always the driver? :-) thanks again!
Thanks! The fantastic roof fan and windows keep the van air flow great for cooking! We do like PW and LTV , however the LTV B pluses are too big for our travel style of go anywhere anytime travel. They are nice though! We do really like the PW Plateaus as well. Chris does not do well as a passenger and I don't mind it!
Have you checked out “Embassy Vans”? You might be surprised. I/we were.🙏
Great tour! How long is your van?
Thank you! It is 22 feet 9 inches, the middle sized Sprinter.
I don’t get it. Why do this? I feel like a house and a camper would be better right?
It's not for everyone for sure. But this is just a chapter in our lives..... nothing is permanent. Right now it's all about travel and experiences, so this is the best way for us. Thanks for watching! 😊
Love to listen to you and watch your videos. The wife and I are retired and Will probably never get an RV But it's fun to dream. I was just wondering if your vehicle is a diesel and what is your gas mileage . Can't wait to watch your next adventure.
Hello! Thanks so much for following along and watching our journey! Our van is a small 3.0 6 cylinder diesel and it gets around 16 -18 mpg's. Pretty good for a 10,000 plus pound van and it's nice to have the extra torque from a diesel.
@@IreneIronTravels Thanks for your quick response!
Try sitting on the toilet seat (open) when showering, that's how I use mine because I'm tall too. Try not to use bioDiesel, but if you do, MB recommend less than 5% bio
I have got used to the quick showers, with my head bent a little. I'm sure I would get used to sitting down as well, but it just doesn't seem natural to me! Agreed on keeping the biodiesel blend low👍👍
14:20 Aaron, revisiting some of your older videos. I'd end up shattering the lid!!! :o)
Just wondering why Chris does all the driving and Aaron gets to relax in the passenger seat?
Hi Richard. I actually really like driving and prefer to drive. I find it therapeutic! Plus, I make a really bad passenger...I get anxious and become a back-seat driver! Thanks for watching! - Chris
What BIG SCREEN radio GPS IS THAT?
It is a 10.1 inch Android based radio by Joying. It is really nice so far.... kinda like a big tablet on our dash that we can download any Android app we want. We mainly use google maps for navigation and Spotify for music, but it can also intagrate TPMS and OBDII. Here is the link for Amazon if you want to check it out. JOYING 10.1 Android Car Stereo: amzn.to/2OYKm8G
Where did you expended winter?
Hello. Do you mean where do we spend our time in winter? We usually go to either the west coast or east coast where the temps are warmer!😀
Irene Iron Fitness thanks, sorry about my English.. second language .. 🤦🏻♀️
No problem! I just wanted to make sure I answered your question! Thanks for watching!
Very nice Van! If you don’t mind me asking, since you bought it out right, what did this set you guys back? I’m beginning to look into one like this.
We did hunt down the best deal we could find and ended up paying about 10k under market value. Airstreams hold their prices very well so it helps to buy in the offseason and nationally. We flew from MN to FL in Dec for our deal.
Very nice
Thank you!
Need a bigger shower in a “B” van? Embassy Van🙏
what year and model is this one?
2014 airstream interstate 22 dual wardrobe. They don't make it anymore but would be closest to the interstate grand tour.
