I agree, that the cockpit, is not easy to get in and out of, and no copilot should attempt to get out. But, I really love that height on the bunk area above the cockpit, so it's a compromise. I don't like the tilt bed. I can see that once it's fully down, the person in the far corner, can't get out easily. I don't like the couch, though I see the heating vents there, I'd still prefer two loungers. Three quick things I like: the slide out is huge, and makes the RV very roomy inside. The bathroom is a really nice size. I like what looks like a cordless charging point built into the kitchen counter (it wasn't mentioned but the camera hovered over it). I still can't believe this is a built on a 4x4 Superduty F550!
Wow 70k subscribers! Another awesome video Like - paint, outdoor kitchen, slide out drawer inserts,solar equipped Dislike- awning already broken !, a nice accessory would be to turn bunk over cab into storage, 2 piece shower, TV didnt swing out for better viewing angle
My wife and I live in ours full time since April, we love the 4x4 for boon docking. We live in BC, Canada and there is plenty of power to climb hills. We cant fill the full size fridge, its huge, plus there is a beverage fridge outside. Things that need improvement, the location of the bed tilt switch, cant reach while in the bed? Rear window latch is weak, pops open while driving. Fresh water tank drain valve, what a joke, it is located under the bed, you need 6' arms and 3 elbows to get to it. Over all we are very happy with our purchase and hope to have for many years.
👍 Smashy! L: interior walkability slide-in; bathroom size, furniture, over cab space. D: wet bay and exposed water access; in my younger years hopping into cockpit would've been easy, not so much now; I suppose with the tiltabed-bed stretched out the bedroom might be bit cramped. Please stay safe you two.😷😷😷😷
A couple of things this one has going for it . The two negatives from your previous review. It has a single rear axle and it is under 40 feet. Now as Andrea stated this is a higher end Super C. So if you really wanted to set this apart from the others. Order the Ford 550 chassis with a crew cab config. Almost unheard of in a motor-home, but it has an exciting feature in it. I have seen several Crew cabs set up with the rear bench seat having a major secured enclosure under the seat. Usually for the locking enclosure for shotguns. But this is where you as a salesman must convert it. After a stocking up trip to Walmart, they, the customer, would be able to load up the motor home without going inside. Locking up the motor-home and returning the cart and then put the groceries away.
As a native Floridian...just a little hint dealing with heat. Stash a little towel just inside the door. As Andrea is waling down to show the path with slide in, grab the towel, wipe the face, re-stash the towel (or chunk out the door to pick up later - gray towel will blend with asphalt). Back on air, you will appear cool and the AC will keep you that way. No one will know the better...unless they read this.
We are in love with this model. I've watched your original review last year on this model. Likes: F550 diesel 4x4, bath and shower size, out door kitchen. Dislikes: Not soft close on all the cabinet and drawers, the climb into/ from the cockpit, and the wet bay needs to be better organized. We will be looking at these in the next few years when we start our retirement. Andrea and Mat, love your reviews, keep up the great work!
Wish you'd put the bed down. I'd guess it slides toward the dresser, but I can't tell how much space is left between it and the dresser once it's down. Like the kitchen. Like the bathroom. We'd never need the upper bunk in a C, so that would be storage which would be a problem with how much it would impede in and out of the seats. Nice RV all in all.
Holy smokes!! 70,000 is just around the corner!! You're gonna hit that 100,000 in no time. I just love y'all and am so happy to see you thriving. Y'all deserve it. I'm really happy that I have been here to watch your channel and subscribers grow! Y'all are being blessed because the two of you are blessing so many others. ❤️🌝
I have a question- what does the torque signify, and why is it important? Oh and what does the solar power at 100 watts do, does it power the fridge or the lights or both or what? Okay 3 things I like: 1.The dinette on the camp site side. 2. bathroom with the 4 P's and the shower 3. the paint job. Dislikes: 1. the tilt-a-bed, 2. the outside kitchen doesn't have a grill or stove top 3. getting into the cock pit from the motorhome
I hate the cupboard on the right side of the bed. You hit your head as you go to roll out of bed. No pantry, wet bay enclosed. Love the outside kitchen, good space on the cab bunk. Great outside paint job
First, congrats on your good news!!! Now, onto this motorhome review. Very excited to see this one, as we are still deciding which Super C is in our future! I am going to check out all the Magnitude Floorplan to see what other choices they have. Three things I like: 1. The bathroom layout and size is wonderful. Ample storage, too. 2. The combination stove top is innovative. Love it. 3. Enough walkway space to access what I need while traveling, without opening the slides. Three dislikes: 1. Underpowered HP. Would like more power. 2. TV placement is sucky. 3. Getting into the co-pilot seat from the inside shouldn't be that difficult. Thanks!
Previous to this rig I had a 40' Class A Diesel Pusher and a "stacker" style trailer. I got it stuck once (well, technically twice on the same outing) and honestly that was enough of that setup for me. It was over 53k lbs combined... not fun to recover.
Likes, 1) 825 lb-ft of torque! 2) Nice bathroom 3) 4WD......Dislikes, 1) TV position 2) Outside kitchen is unnecessary with the huge residential fridge and takes up valuable cargo space that is always lacking on a Class C 3) All rubber roofs eventually leak!
Cargo carry capacity is iffy, especially depending upon what equipment was included and what was not ("optional" equipment?) included.... Inside cab egress/ingress is quite awkward. Love the residential fridge. Passenger (patio) side dinette is good. Counter space is good. Solar is good.
Hi Matt and Andrea, Awesome news Matt you will rock as Generals brand ambassador. Maybe I can catch you at Generals Huntley Illinois location. You and Andrea deserve the best you both are so genuine. Continued success to both of you.
This is almost exact floorplan of our Thor. Ours is a few feet bigger with more storage . Also ours has a much better looking backsplash, and our king-size bed is usable while driving. Bathroom almost exact but we do have a medicine cabinet behind our mirror. Just a few picky things but for that price I think it should a lot nicer. Also, it would be hard to off grid as they call it due to the fact it sits low.
This is a great motorhome. I really like it except for it is hard to get down to drive from where the dining area is. And the bed raised up or down. That’s all I have on that. It’s a great RV. Thank you Matt and Andrea. I’ll check out your mugs. See you both soon! Sherri
I love the big shower, the wood finish and the large over cab bunk-makes it almost a 2 bedroom! Agree on the meh backsplash, dislike the fabric on the valences and ... can’t think of a third. Love you both & precious Yoona!
Not a dislike but I wish RV manufacturers would make wider entry doors. Because while a residential fridge is nice many times you have to remove a slide out to replace the residential fridges. That can be an expensive shop visit to a RV garage.
Likes: (1)4X4 with V8, (2)Plenty of Inside Storage(wardrobe), (3)Inside kitchen decent counter space and Simple outside kitchen without out a clumsy slide out table, fold up table works fine. Dislikes: (1) TV placement ( but you should have demonstrated the swing TV mount.) (2) Bed is not usable when slide is in. It is what it is, use the dinette or above cab bed.(3) Never used induction cook top, probably want all propane burners.
Nice rig. No outside cooktop makes that an outside snack station. Outside kitchen I need to spend some more money. Overcab bunk looks functional; nice!
I would rather have a washer and dryer than wardrobe space on a motorhome of this size. You could always store additional clothing in a compartment below. I also wish a diesel motor was an option on all Super C's. I love the floorplan and the awesome amount of headroom in the overhead bunk. The quality is superb inside and out. The outdoor kitchen is a great bonus. I would also prefer a rear bumper or at least offer it as an option.
Likes: wonderful headroom in the cab bunk, roomy shower, outdoor kitchen. Dislikes: folding bed (another thing to remember before running the slide in), crappy wet bay, no pantry for dry goods storage (or did I miss it in the video?)
Hi guys. Dis like 1. Im 5’7” and my husband 6’3” so smal the space in the cab to go back. Just one. Like 1. The color combination outside and in. 2. The kitchen outdoor 😍 3. The bedroom 👍🏻👍🏻
I actually really like this Super C! (When I win the lottery, this might be the one!) Likes: 1. Ford 550 with 4x4! 2. Walkway is spacious while the slide is in. 3. Auto Leveling! Dislikes: 1. Only length. I prefer shorter RVs. But this RV is a strong reason to get a longer RV. A recommendation for Thor: The table in the bedroom would make an awesome vanity/desk. Make the drawers under it into a space that can convert to either shelving or legroom. I heard the newer Ford's get better fuel economy than older models. That price seems surprisingly lower than I anticipated due to size and features.
I agree on length, before we bought this model the top competition was an Isata 5 28SS 4x4. The Isata was only 30' 10" total length, which we loved. However, there were just too many downsides... so far the length has actually been pretty good. It drives and "feels" much smaller than 35'+.
Love the bathroom and the dual cooktop. Also like the dinette on the camping side of the rig as well as the overcab bed area. It looks larger and comfortable. Stargazing without bugs!
Matt and Andrea you guys will take General RV to the next level. We will be in the market for our RV later this year and will be looking to General RV in Salt Lake UT. Super nice Super C. And congrats to both of you on the promotion, you guys deserve it.
The king size bed is tilt-a view recliner bed. Recline up for relaxing watching t.v., reading a book, etc... on the bed. And I believe the bed could be in down position with the slide in. Nice Super C.
Lots to love on this one but what's up with the bed? It's a tilt a what? What does that mean? Is the mattress just bent or is it a mattress with a seam where it folds?
Hi Matt and Andrea hope you guys are doing well. 3 likes and 3 dislikes 3 likes Has a lot of room to walk to bathroom with the slides closed Love the side in which the dinette is face. Love outside kitchen. 3 dislikes No washer ,dryer or dish washer if they can’t fit them in it would be perfect. Tv placement isn’t the best but can be worked around. No oven connected to the stovetop.
Another RV pet peeve I have is not having an easy height adjustability on RV couches/theater seating. I personally am tall (6ft4in) with arthritic knees and back. Its soo much more comfortable to get up off a taller couch fo my wife and myself. I also love the toilets Matt dislikes. Lol.
Matt and Andrea again congratulations 🍾🎈 on the big news! This is a nice Super C motorhome! Likes; large kitchen area, dinette on campsite 🏕 side and beefy E550 chassis. Dislikes no rear bumper, no washer dryer hookup, and no airhorn! Stay safe on your travels!
Hi guy's great video , love these Thor Super C it would be my choice for full timing .I am a Ford fan anyway and this being on a Ford chassi is great .Great body paint and that outside kitchen is number one .That latter is a little short it could be one more step would help . I agree with you on the wet bay it not set up very good .On the inside agree with you on sliding down to the cab , my younger days maybe . The TV may go over the door with a swing arm for the bunk ? Do like the dinette on that side and the kitchen is really nice . Its got a real nice bathroom good big shower . The bedroom like all those cabinet but the bed not being able to use it on the road would be a pain , but it is still a really nice Super C .
Matt, great video, though you may want to point out this is one of only 2 4x4 diesel coaches at this pricepoint in the industry. Good luck in your new role as spokesperson for the company.
Test drove one of these. Lots of power. Engine is quiet. Unfortunately it has at lot of sway side to side. It really needs a set of air bags and thicker anti sway bars. And as with most motorhomes these days, lots of rattles.
❤YOU GUYS..❤1.Like the setups elec.sewer2.Floorplan3.Room in cab!😞1.LITTLE LARGE2.PRICE 3.STORAGE..BUT THATS REALLY NOT BAD..LOVE THIS RV..ALL AND ALL!NICE REVIEW MATT AND ANDREA!!❤👍
Hi Andrea! Ideas for FOUR C's: ~Comfortable ~Climbable (can you climb into easily?) ~Carousel Chair or Carousel option or Carousel affect or Carousel feature or just plain "Carousel" (it swivels otates like a carousel) ~Co-Captain Chair These are just suggestions - but they seem to capture things you're looking for when you review an RV. I know you didn't ask for suggestions so I won't be offended if you don't use any of them - but it was fun and challenging to think up some ideas that are relevant and appropriate. Maybe you'll get a collection of helpful ideas from your followers that will help you pin it down. Maybe you don't have to do 4. Maybe it's "Three C's". Either way - this is fun. I hope you enjoy!😊
Nice looking coach, like that its a 4x4. Not a fan of “not” having the bed accessible while traveling but the overhead appears to be easy to crawl up on. The outside kitchen would be better if it had like a small griddle included like the one thats included in a Rockwood towable considering they removed the slide out stove top.
Confused regarding the bed. Wanted to see it flat to determine walking space. Liked the outside storage unit that opened sideways. Wish more RVs had that. Nice shower, liked dinette on other side. Tight fit getting out of seats into rest of rig.
Hey Matt, love your videos. I actually own a 2021 Thor Magnitude SV34 just like this one, other than the exterior color (I have the blue accents, same interior colors). A few points: * GVWR is 19,500lbs and the GCWR is 40,000lbs. That actually makes for a theoretical towing capacity of 20,500lbs. However, as you pointed out it "only" has a 10k lbs hitch. Also, trailer tongue weight cuts into the CCC of the rig, so you need to plan accordingly. I think it's pretty important to have that type of information ready and share it as part of your video, especially when reviewing a Super C which people will buy specifically to tow. * You point out "no bumper for your stinky slinky" but really, would you want a cheap looking tube-bumper on the back of this rig? The clean 1-piece rear cap is a much better look. But more importantly that bumper would cut down on clearance to a trailer during tight maneuvers. Again you have to remember this is a Super C intended for towing. * You showed both diesel fills, but you did not point out the DEF fill (in with the generator). When you previously reviewed one of these units you stated that one diesel fill was actually DEF, which it is not. Again, important details to get right. * Not putting the bed into the lowered position has lead to confusion in the comments already. * It'd probably help buyers to swing the TV out to show the position for viewing in the theater seats/couch. Finally, as an owner who's now taken it on our first trip, let me give my own 3 likes/dislikes: Likes: 1) Chassis - the coach drives exceptionally well, and has plenty of power as well as exhaust braking even with ~7,500lbs of trailer behind it. It also very stable in the wind which is always a potential issue with Cs. 2) Floorplan - it really is just the absolute best use of the space. 3) Outdoor Kitchen - I used it constantly. Dislikes: 1) Quality Control - the fill lines for both of my diesel tanks, as well as my DEF run on an uphill so I have to crawl under and hold them up while somebody else fills the tanks. I can see where they were held with zip-ties, that snapped. That's just unacceptable at this price-point IMHO. I'll probably have some metal brackets made to hold them, but I shouldn't need to do that. There are a few other small problems like this. Still, I bought a brand new Newmar Dutch Star 4018 (2017 model year) that actually had way more problems, and I know ALL new RVs have their issues. 2) No gutter/drain system for the AC condensation - it just drips down the roof, then down the awning when it's out, and right into the middle of "camp." I'll be looking into adding a piece of flashing or molding to at least direct it off the front or back, rather than down the awning. 3) Small tanks - with the room still open under the chassis they could have done better.
We have the black/tan version and I agree with your observations. I had the same fuel issue and fixed it like you suggested. My biggest pet peeve is the fresh water tank drain, access is impossible.
@@PontiacDad I haven't even looked for that yet. We tend to use our RV so much, and not in freezing temps we basically never drain, but not looking forward to it...
Fun video. Love your energy. I think that even with 4x4, this RV looks purpose-built for campgrounds with hookups. The major dislikes for me are 1. Residential fridge that runs off inverter, meaning you need a whole lot more solar, or need to run the generator constantly to keep it cold. I'd take that out and put in a 3-way fridge. 2. Bed folding when the slide is in. Want a sleep-number mattress that we can use if parked on a residential street without slides out. 3. It's a Ford. We've never had good luck with Ford reliability. Likes: 1. Full slide gives a lot of extra living space (but let us sleep in the bed without it!), 2. 4x4 to keep us from getting stuck in the boondocks, 3. integrated cameras for tight clearances We're thinking about rigs that would be good for free camping, either Walmart, on the street, mooch-docking at friends or relatives' houses or boondocking on BLM land. Our last choices would be campgrounds with hookups. They're cramped, have campfire smoke, and a bunch cost almost as much as motels!
No real mention of the 4x4 capability. For those of us up north this is a big deal and allows for more multi seasonal camping as well as beach and other loose surface traversing. I wish Thor put a solid Fiberglass roof on this and not just the front cap.
Congratulations on ur new position. Can’t wait to see videos every day!! Also like the new beginning. Very nice camper kinda hard to get in the front cab from inside though as you said but the rest is very nice
Congratulations on the new position. Nice to see your hard work paying off. 2 thing I do not like about this RV. Folding Master Bed. Tough egress to the cab from inside. 3 Things I LOVE about this RV. F550 4X4, Summer kitchen with LP access, Camp side dinette.
This is a very nice super class C However I don’t like the bed dependent on the slide out. Why can’t more manufacturers catch on to the advantages of a north south bed placement. I also don’t like the TV placement. They should have done a “televator” right across from the sofa. I love the bunk over cab, it’s nice and open and roomy. The kitchen and bath are great too although I concur that the backsplash is pretty sad.
Dislikes: 1. Don't care about the "outside kitchen" prefer storage. 2. Do not like the bed. 3. Prefer a 2-way Fridge. Likes: 1. Love the 4WD!!! Finally!!! 2. Love the Ford F550 Chassis 3. Tankless water heater- every RV should have this. This is my RV when I can afford it. Almost Perfect if Thor made it well. Have seen a lot of Thor horror stories on quality. Just sayin'! Love You Matt and Andrea!!! Congrats! Matt! General RV is pretty smart!
Dislikes: 1) the TV-couch position isn't optimal 2) The bed; I'm not sure what is going on with the beds that are tilted up. 3) The sanitation set up in general Like: 1)It sounds like it might have some "offish" road and towing capacity 2) I like the colors and the artwork 3) The bathroom seems nice for this size of a class C. I think after looking at the last 2, this is a bit of a "womp, womp."
I’m not sure, but it looks like you would have a tough time getting around the bed when it’s not tilted, not to mention getting into those drawers in the slide out. Everything else was great!
3 Questions - How is the 4x4 engaged (I assume like my F250 but always smart to ask) - Since it is a 4x4 would have liked to see the ground clearance and view under the rig - How does the bed work? When it goes flat does the nice space at the end of the bed go away? How much room is left?
You did not elaborate on why someone would want to pay a lot more to buy a 4x4 super C. Maybe talk about being able to camp on the beach sand, not getting stuck, etc. You also forgot to tell us the cargo carrying capacity of this monster F550 chassis or what material the passenger cage is made of.
Love the outside kitchen Love the bathroom Love the king size bed Don't like the sink rather have farmer sink. Don't like getting out and in of the front seat. Don't like having no rear bumper This unit get ⭐⭐⭐⭐
To hook up the stinky slinky the wet bay door will have to stay open. The access hole is behind the actual connection making it unusable. The pass through is ridiculous. Other than that it's really nice.
When opening the cabinet doors, you should highlight the ones that have no center post. That allows for easier storage of bigger/longer items and storage issues are always important.
Hi Andrea and Matt! It's great living in a home on wheels, no fix place to be and every single day can see and live in different places. How is possible for someone that is living in a city that having this way of life is only in dreams. I do like and appreciate this lifestyle. I do really need your advice to make this dream come true.
Outstanding SupA C! I was also having issues finding "I dont really like" BUT....yeah, the APOLLO slide into place cabin to truck seat ...a downer for older taller folks...Must use the go outside and re enter doors....Love floor plan design & outside kitchen. Again, Mat n Andrea, Great video!
Likes: F-550, Paint job, bathroom...xtra...dinette location agree with both of you.Dislikes: king bed set up, agree on wet bay with Matt, outside kitchen space wasted.
Likes 1 outside kitchen 2 armless awning 3 camp side dinette Dislikes 1 price, Entegra Accolade better for about same price 2 crawling into/out of drivers seat 3 no pantry
Matt, congrats on the new position! Like this rig, but you didn't show us the bedroom with the bed in the sleeping position. We really would like to know how much room there is when camping. And that wet bay SUCKS! It looks like you can't hook up the house and close the door. Love the big Ford 6.7 PowerStroke 4x4.
4x4 - great for NY camping Likes: bedroom cabinet space, outside kitchen, seeing your campsite while at the dinette Diskes: carpet, wet bay layout, lack of counter space
I love everything about the Thor Magnitude. I have seen the TV above the Dinette which is a better placement, IMO. Also, I wish there was an option to replace the cab over sleep area with cabinets.
I like the placement of the outside TV, like that the rear view mirror is the view screen for the camera. Like the prime popping position . I do not like you can not use the bed with the slide are in, I do not like how to exit front seats to go inside with out step outside. and that the water intake and fill does not have an lockable door
The only dislike I really have is the king size bed. I would want to be able to use the bed going down the road. Love love love the F550 chassis! Glad they didn't cheap out and put it on a F350 chassis. Sure a F350 chassis could do the job but not as nicely as a F550. Sale price is decent enough that it would be worth it to upgrade the house batteries to lithium ion and ad at least 1 more solar panel... Do it at time of purchase and include the cost on the vehicle loan... Trust me, you will kick yourself if you decide later to upgrade to lithium ion later.
I agree, that the cockpit, is not easy to get in and out of, and no copilot should attempt to get out. But, I really love that height on the bunk area above the cockpit, so it's a compromise. I don't like the tilt bed. I can see that once it's fully down, the person in the far corner, can't get out easily. I don't like the couch, though I see the heating vents there, I'd still prefer two loungers. Three quick things I like: the slide out is huge, and makes the RV very roomy inside. The bathroom is a really nice size. I like what looks like a cordless charging point built into the kitchen counter (it wasn't mentioned but the camera hovered over it). I still can't believe this is a built on a 4x4 Superduty F550!

Wish you'd put the bed down. I'd guess it slides toward the dresser, but I can't tell how much space is left between it and the dresser once it's down. Like the kitchen. Like the bathroom.

No pantry, wet bay enclosed.
Love the outside kitchen, good space on the cab bunk.
Great outside paint job
First, congrats on your good news!!!
Now, onto this motorhome review. Very excited to see this one, as we are still deciding which Super C is in our future!
I am going to check out all the Magnitude Floorplan to see what other choices they have.
Three things I like:
1. The bathroom layout and size is wonderful. Ample storage, too.
2. The combination stove top is innovative. Love it.
3. Enough walkway space to access what I need while traveling, without opening the slides.
Three dislikes:
1. Underpowered HP. Would like more power.
2. TV placement is sucky.
3. Getting into the co-pilot seat from the inside shouldn't be that difficult.
Thanks!
I love that when the slide is in the king size bed is a sofa/daybed !
As an southern male, i feel the 4WD feature didn't get enough love haha. That's pretty nice! I've actually seen some class A's get stuck a few times.
Previous to this rig I had a 40' Class A Diesel Pusher and a "stacker" style trailer. I got it stuck once (well, technically twice on the same outing) and honestly that was enough of that setup for me. It was over 53k lbs combined... not fun to recover.
can't not agreed more. about time to see a 4x4.
flashsplat I live in “snow country” and 4X4 is a must!!!!
yup. agreed
4x4 with camouflage paint🙂
Likes, 1) 825 lb-ft of torque! 2) Nice bathroom 3) 4WD......Dislikes, 1) TV position 2) Outside kitchen is unnecessary with the huge residential fridge and takes up valuable cargo space that is always lacking on a Class C 3) All rubber roofs eventually leak!
Yay! I see Andrea on the welcoming cartoon. It's overdue! Y'all keep doing what you're doing, we love it!
Cargo carry capacity is iffy, especially depending upon what equipment was included and what was not ("optional" equipment?) included.... Inside cab egress/ingress is quite awkward. Love the residential fridge. Passenger (patio) side dinette is good. Counter space is good. Solar is good.
Hi Matt and Andrea,
Awesome news Matt you will rock as Generals brand ambassador. Maybe I can catch you at Generals Huntley Illinois location. You and Andrea deserve the best you both are so genuine. Continued success to both of you.
This is almost exact floorplan of our Thor. Ours is a few feet bigger with more storage . Also ours has a much better looking backsplash, and our king-size bed is usable while driving. Bathroom almost exact but we do have a medicine cabinet behind our mirror. Just a few picky things but for that price I think it should a lot nicer. Also, it would be hard to off grid as they call it due to the fact it sits low.
This is a great motorhome. I really like it except for it is hard to get down to drive from where the dining area is. And the bed raised up or down. That’s all I have on that. It’s a great RV. Thank you Matt and Andrea. I’ll check out your mugs. See you both soon!

I love the big shower, the wood finish and the large over cab bunk-makes it almost a 2 bedroom! Agree on the meh backsplash, dislike the fabric on the valences and ... can’t think of a third. Love you both & precious Yoona!
Not a dislike but I wish RV manufacturers would make wider entry doors. Because while a residential fridge is nice many times you have to remove a slide out to replace the residential fridges. That can be an expensive shop visit to a RV garage.
Congrats on the 70k
Likes: (1)4X4 with V8, (2)Plenty of Inside Storage(wardrobe), (3)Inside kitchen decent counter space and Simple outside kitchen without out a clumsy slide out table, fold up table works fine. Dislikes: (1) TV placement ( but you should have demonstrated the swing TV mount.) (2) Bed is not usable when slide is in. It is what it is, use the dinette or above cab bed.(3) Never used induction cook top, probably want all propane burners.
Nice rig. No outside cooktop makes that an outside snack station. Outside kitchen I need to spend some more money. Overcab bunk looks functional; nice!
I would rather have a washer and dryer than wardrobe space on a motorhome of this size. You could always store additional clothing in a compartment below. I also wish a diesel motor was an option on all Super C's. I love the floorplan and the awesome amount of headroom in the overhead bunk. The quality is superb inside and out. The outdoor kitchen is a great bonus. I would also prefer a rear bumper or at least offer it as an option.
Likes: wonderful headroom in the cab bunk, roomy shower, outdoor kitchen.
Dislikes: folding bed (another thing to remember before running the slide in), crappy wet bay, no pantry for dry goods storage (or did I miss it in the video?)
Hi guys. Dis like 1. Im 5’7” and my husband 6’3” so smal the space in the cab to go back. Just one. Like 1. The color combination outside and in. 2. The kitchen outdoor 😍 3. The bedroom 👍🏻👍🏻
Very proud of you two for your hard work. Been following you for a year and you have changed the rv reviewing education that people have asked for :)
I actually really like this Super C! (When I win the lottery, this might be the one!)
Likes:
1. Ford 550 with 4x4!
2. Walkway is spacious while the slide is in.
3. Auto Leveling!
Dislikes:
1. Only length. I prefer shorter RVs. But this RV is a strong reason to get a longer RV.
A recommendation for Thor: The table in the bedroom would make an awesome vanity/desk. Make the drawers under it into a space that can convert to either shelving or legroom.
I heard the newer Ford's get better fuel economy than older models.
That price seems surprisingly lower than I anticipated due to size and features.
I agree on length, before we bought this model the top competition was an Isata 5 28SS 4x4. The Isata was only 30' 10" total length, which we loved. However, there were just too many downsides... so far the length has actually been pretty good. It drives and "feels" much smaller than 35'+.
The payload capacity seems kind of light for a Super C.
I like everything but climbing down into the cab. I'd fall on my head lol
Love the bathroom and the dual cooktop. Also like the dinette on the camping side of the rig as well as the overcab bed area. It looks larger and comfortable. Stargazing without bugs!
Matt and Andrea you guys will take General RV to the next level. We will be in the market for our RV later this year and will be looking to General RV in Salt Lake UT. Super nice Super C. And congrats to both of you on the promotion, you guys deserve it.
The king size bed is tilt-a view recliner bed. Recline up for relaxing watching t.v., reading a book, etc... on the bed. And I believe the bed could be in down position with the slide in.
Nice Super C.
Lots to love on this one but what's up with the bed? It's a tilt a what? What does that mean? Is the mattress just bent or is it a mattress with a seam where it folds?
Hi Matt and Andrea hope you guys are doing well.

Love the side in which the dinette is face.
Love outside kitchen.

No washer ,dryer or dish washer if they can’t fit them in it would be perfect.
Tv placement isn’t the best but can be worked around.
No oven connected to the stovetop.
It was around 1500lb
Another RV pet peeve I have is not having an easy height adjustability on RV couches/theater seating. I personally am tall (6ft4in) with arthritic knees and back. Its soo much more comfortable to get up off a taller couch fo my wife and myself. I also love the toilets Matt dislikes. Lol.
I love this motorhome, the layout, the colors, the size. I just love it.
Matt and Andrea again congratulations 🍾🎈 on the big news! This is a nice Super C motorhome! Likes; large kitchen area, dinette on campsite 🏕 side and beefy E550 chassis. Dislikes no rear bumper, no washer dryer hookup, and no airhorn! Stay safe on your travels!
Hello Matt & Andrea,
Likes- Love the cabinets, bathroom, front cab
Dislikes-wet base station
Hi guy's great video , love these Thor Super C it would be my choice for full timing .I am a Ford fan anyway and this being on a Ford chassi is great .Great body paint and that outside kitchen is number one .That latter is a little short it could be one more step would help . I agree with you on the wet bay it not set up very good .On the inside agree with you on sliding down to the cab , my younger days maybe . The TV may go over the door with a swing arm for the bunk ? Do like the dinette on that side and the kitchen is really nice . Its got a real nice bathroom good big shower . The bedroom like all those cabinet but the bed not being able to use it on the road would be a pain , but it is still a really nice Super C .
Matt, great video, though you may want to point out this is one of only 2 4x4 diesel coaches at this pricepoint in the industry. Good luck in your new role as spokesperson for the company.
Test drove one of these. Lots of power. Engine is quiet.
Unfortunately it has at lot of sway side to side. It really needs a set of air bags and thicker anti sway bars.
And as with most motorhomes these days, lots of rattles.
❤YOU GUYS..❤1.Like the setups elec.sewer2.Floorplan3.Room in cab!😞1.LITTLE LARGE2.PRICE 3.STORAGE..BUT THATS REALLY NOT BAD..LOVE THIS RV..ALL AND ALL!NICE REVIEW MATT AND ANDREA!!❤👍
Hi Andrea! Ideas for FOUR C's:
~Comfortable
~Climbable (can you climb into easily?)
~Carousel Chair or Carousel option or Carousel affect or Carousel feature or just plain "Carousel" (it swivels
otates like a carousel)
~Co-Captain Chair
These are just suggestions - but they seem to capture things you're looking for when you review an RV. I know you didn't ask for suggestions so I won't be offended if you don't use any of them - but it was fun and challenging to think up some ideas that are relevant and appropriate. Maybe you'll get a collection of helpful ideas from your followers that will help you pin it down. Maybe you don't have to do 4. Maybe it's "Three C's". Either way - this is fun. I hope you enjoy!😊
The outside paint is nice, interior is kinda blah. The outside kitchen isn’t great other than grabbing a cold drink.
Nice looking coach, like that its a 4x4. Not a fan of “not” having the bed accessible while traveling but the overhead appears to be easy to crawl up on. The outside kitchen would be better if it had like a small griddle included like the one thats included in a Rockwood towable considering they removed the slide out stove top.
Love this one...great job to Thor and awesome job by Matt and Andrea. Great energy, pacing, and so informative!
Light Fixture is kind of Art Deco Matt.
Confused regarding the bed. Wanted to see it flat to determine walking space. Liked the outside storage unit that opened sideways. Wish more RVs had that. Nice shower, liked dinette on other side. Tight fit getting out of seats into rest of rig.
Hey Matt, love your videos. I actually own a 2021 Thor Magnitude SV34 just like this one, other than the exterior color (I have the blue accents, same interior colors). A few points:
* GVWR is 19,500lbs and the GCWR is 40,000lbs. That actually makes for a theoretical towing capacity of 20,500lbs. However, as you pointed out it "only" has a 10k lbs hitch. Also, trailer tongue weight cuts into the CCC of the rig, so you need to plan accordingly. I think it's pretty important to have that type of information ready and share it as part of your video, especially when reviewing a Super C which people will buy specifically to tow.
* You point out "no bumper for your stinky slinky" but really, would you want a cheap looking tube-bumper on the back of this rig? The clean 1-piece rear cap is a much better look. But more importantly that bumper would cut down on clearance to a trailer during tight maneuvers. Again you have to remember this is a Super C intended for towing.
* You showed both diesel fills, but you did not point out the DEF fill (in with the generator). When you previously reviewed one of these units you stated that one diesel fill was actually DEF, which it is not. Again, important details to get right.
* Not putting the bed into the lowered position has lead to confusion in the comments already.
* It'd probably help buyers to swing the TV out to show the position for viewing in the theater seats/couch.
Finally, as an owner who's now taken it on our first trip, let me give my own 3 likes/dislikes:
Likes:
1) Chassis - the coach drives exceptionally well, and has plenty of power as well as exhaust braking even with ~7,500lbs of trailer behind it. It also very stable in the wind which is always a potential issue with Cs.
2) Floorplan - it really is just the absolute best use of the space.
3) Outdoor Kitchen - I used it constantly.
Dislikes:
1) Quality Control - the fill lines for both of my diesel tanks, as well as my DEF run on an uphill so I have to crawl under and hold them up while somebody else fills the tanks. I can see where they were held with zip-ties, that snapped. That's just unacceptable at this price-point IMHO. I'll probably have some metal brackets made to hold them, but I shouldn't need to do that. There are a few other small problems like this. Still, I bought a brand new Newmar Dutch Star 4018 (2017 model year) that actually had way more problems, and I know ALL new RVs have their issues.
2) No gutter/drain system for the AC condensation - it just drips down the roof, then down the awning when it's out, and right into the middle of "camp." I'll be looking into adding a piece of flashing or molding to at least direct it off the front or back, rather than down the awning.
3) Small tanks - with the room still open under the chassis they could have done better.
Thanks for your real life likes and dislikes. FYI, The Thor brochure has the GCWR as 35K lbs, did they get it wrong?
They upped it in 2021.
@@markwgundert4251 www.thormotorcoach.com/magnitude/specs/
We have the black/tan version and I agree with your observations. I had the same fuel issue and fixed it like you suggested. My biggest pet peeve is the fresh water tank drain, access is impossible.
@@PontiacDad I haven't even looked for that yet. We tend to use our RV so much, and not in freezing temps we basically never drain, but not looking forward to it...
Fun video. Love your energy. I think that even with 4x4, this RV looks purpose-built for campgrounds with hookups. The major dislikes for me are 1. Residential fridge that runs off inverter, meaning you need a whole lot more solar, or need to run the generator constantly to keep it cold. I'd take that out and put in a 3-way fridge. 2. Bed folding when the slide is in. Want a sleep-number mattress that we can use if parked on a residential street without slides out. 3. It's a Ford. We've never had good luck with Ford reliability.
Likes: 1. Full slide gives a lot of extra living space (but let us sleep in the bed without it!), 2. 4x4 to keep us from getting stuck in the boondocks, 3. integrated cameras for tight clearances
We're thinking about rigs that would be good for free camping, either Walmart, on the street, mooch-docking at friends or relatives' houses or boondocking on BLM land. Our last choices would be campgrounds with hookups. They're cramped, have campfire smoke, and a bunch cost almost as much as motels!
No real mention of the 4x4 capability. For those of us up north this is a big deal and allows for more multi seasonal camping as well as beach and other loose surface traversing.
I wish Thor put a solid Fiberglass roof on this and not just the front cap.
I honestly just watch your videos because you two are hilarious!
Thank you ☺️
Congratulations on ur new position. Can’t wait to see videos every day!! Also like the new beginning. Very nice camper kinda hard to get in the front cab from inside though as you said but the rest is very nice
Thanks Linda:)
I am not even in the market for an RV but love watching your videos
I do the same, love watching very informative congrats on your new position they couldn’t have pick a better person 😎
Congratulations on the new position. Nice to see your hard work paying off.
2 thing I do not like about this RV.
Folding Master Bed. Tough egress to the cab from inside.
3 Things I LOVE about this RV.
F550 4X4, Summer kitchen with LP access, Camp side dinette.
Andrea is always 'super excited'! Lol Love her!
This is a very nice super class C However I don’t like the bed dependent on the slide out. Why can’t more manufacturers catch on to the advantages of a north south bed placement.
I also don’t like the TV placement. They should have done a “televator” right across from the sofa.
I love the bunk over cab, it’s nice and open and roomy. The kitchen and bath are great too although I concur that the backsplash is pretty sad.
Dislikes: 1. Don't care about the "outside kitchen" prefer storage. 2. Do not like the bed. 3. Prefer a 2-way Fridge. Likes: 1. Love the 4WD!!! Finally!!! 2. Love the Ford F550 Chassis 3. Tankless water heater- every RV should have this. This is my RV when I can afford it. Almost Perfect if Thor made it well. Have seen a lot of Thor horror stories on quality. Just sayin'! Love You Matt and Andrea!!! Congrats! Matt! General RV is pretty smart!
This Class C is perfect, big bathroom and a king size bed. 👍🏻🇺🇸
Dislikes: 1) the TV-couch position isn't optimal 2) The bed; I'm not sure what is going on with the beds that are tilted up. 3) The sanitation set up in general Like: 1)It sounds like it might have some "offish" road and towing capacity 2) I like the colors and the artwork 3) The bathroom seems nice for this size of a class C. I think after looking at the last 2, this is a bit of a "womp, womp."
I’m not sure, but it looks like you would have a tough time getting around the bed when it’s not tilted, not to mention getting into those drawers in the slide out. Everything else was great!
You should show fridge access with the slide in.
The First super class c I like.....good work and I love 4×4😉
Matt please add a camera fill light.
3 Questions
- How is the 4x4 engaged (I assume like my F250 but always smart to ask)
- Since it is a 4x4 would have liked to see the ground clearance and view under the rig
- How does the bed work? When it goes flat does the nice space at the end of the bed go away? How much room is left?
You did not elaborate on why someone would want to pay a lot more to buy a 4x4 super C. Maybe talk about being able to camp on the beach sand, not getting stuck, etc. You also forgot to tell us the cargo carrying capacity of this monster F550 chassis or what material the passenger cage is made of.
love this unit. I have no dislikes
As for my wife & I , we would rather have storage above the cab without the windshield. Love the outdoor kitchen & the Ford 4x4 chassis
If you get a chance must do a review of a Prevost Featherlight,just to look at the top 1%
Love the outside kitchen
Love the bathroom
Love the king size bed
Don't like the sink rather have farmer sink.
Don't like getting out and in of the front seat.
Don't like having no rear bumper
This unit get ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I drive a fairly new F-550 pickup for my job. That thing rides like a Cadillac I was surprised at how much of a monster it really is.
Matt and Andrea what do you THINK? THE MAGNITUDE/OMNI OR THE RENEGADE VERACRUZ ?????
To hook up the stinky slinky the wet bay door will have to stay open. The access hole is behind the actual connection making it unusable.
The pass through is ridiculous.
Other than that it's really nice.
When opening the cabinet doors, you should highlight the ones that have no center post. That allows for easier storage of bigger/longer items and storage issues are always important.
Like everything about this rig. Wish I could afford one. Should well.
Hi Andrea and Matt! It's great living in a home on wheels, no fix place to be and every single day can see and live in different places. How is possible for someone that is living in a city that having this way of life is only in dreams. I do like and appreciate this lifestyle. I do really need your advice to make this dream come true.
Love the new intro and the mugs so cute! Matt, congrats again on the promotion you certainly deserve it! 👊😎😄
More RVs need the induction stove tops, just in case you get low on propane.
Really like the over all of this one!.!.!

Matt, congrats on the new position!
Like this rig, but you didn't show us the bedroom with the bed in the sleeping position. We really would like to know how much room there is when camping.
And that wet bay SUCKS! It looks like you can't hook up the house and close the door.
Love the big Ford 6.7 PowerStroke 4x4.

I love everything about the Thor Magnitude. I have seen the TV above the Dinette which is a better placement, IMO. Also, I wish there was an option to replace the cab over sleep area with cabinets.
My usual pet peeve, where is the stackable washer and dryer? They could have put it in the clothes closet
I like the placement of the outside TV, like that the rear view mirror is the view screen for the camera. Like the prime popping position . I do not like you can not use the bed with the slide are in, I do not like how to exit front seats to go inside with out step outside. and that the water intake and fill does not have an lockable door
70k congrats guys. Also congrats on the "promotion".
The only dislike I really have is the king size bed. I would want to be able to use the bed going down the road. Love love love the F550 chassis! Glad they didn't cheap out and put it on a F350 chassis. Sure a F350 chassis could do the job but not as nicely as a F550. Sale price is decent enough that it would be worth it to upgrade the house batteries to lithium ion and ad at least 1 more solar panel... Do it at time of purchase and include the cost on the vehicle loan... Trust me, you will kick yourself if you decide later to upgrade to lithium ion later.
