Hello Hank, I am getting more and more interested in RVs. Ah I think the van slash mini bus versions are probably more my taste at the moment. Yeah more pocket friendly at this time, but I would prefer like a Heather Gray colored outside versus that white. I do like the black leather interior as well, and those cabinets kind of looked like a Heather Gray to like a charcoal gray color. Again kind of the dark colors I like / prefer. But I also kind.of like like the "decorated/ colored designed RVs like the bus versions", but in van form.
Hey Casper…there are a lot of affordable options for vans…I like the 4x4 Schoolies out there as well…Thanks for watching our video and sharing your thoughts 😁🙏🏽👍🏾
@@strangerpalooza Yes definitely prefer the 4wd/AWD option, cuz I live in an area that has winter snows icy roads and of course I'm in a small town/ village/ like industrial combined with residential area.
I really love the black color but I would want the reclining bucket seat against the left side and then leave the back open for an area for my dogs and a shower/toilet. The salesman is so nice - he seems like a genuinely nice person not sleezy but then again he is representing the cream of the crop of vehicles. He doesn’t seem arrogant or impatient. Your videos are great - love seeing all the details. I would definitely buy from that salesman because of his generosity helping make this video.
First I love the color. I would call it TK242. The interior looks great. Looks like a lot of luxury but functional. The added constant on cameras and shade are such a wonderful upgrade. Last the batteries will definitely aid people in not being the typical loud RV. Definitely fun to imagine having this a opinion opposed to flying. If I had a opportunity to purchase one this would be the one. TK 242 would show my family the wonders of our beautiful country
I absolutely love you guys! This channel is always very informative and answers so many of my questions, not to mention the camaraderie between you and Nick! This has definitely become my go to Rv review channel, and I will most likely be purchasing my first Rv through Sunshine State because of it!
This is one super impressive Class B RV! However, for the simple fact that the unit may have to be towed to acquire maintenance I would prefer a Ford or Ram RV. There are so many options available out there and so many different price points. I have lived in a GMC Savana 2500 cargo van for nearly a year and a half now. My conversion is a no build one. I simply moved my man cave from my old home into the van and I love it. Now I know what I want in my Class B which includes AWD, bathroom/shower facility, sufficient storage and Lithium batteries. Your Coachman, Hank, seems to fit my needs. I have to consider my fiance's needs so when she returns from serving in the Ukraine 🇺🇦 we will actively shop for our Class B. Thanks for featuring so many available options, Hank!
Very nice review: This rig is damn near perfect. I love the black leather with the quilted stitching. I would definitely remove the passenger seat for a 6 or 7 cubic ft. fridge.
Thanks for the amazing video Hank. Been watching your channel for over a year trying to decide what van is best for us. Never thought I would actually see my van in a video. Can’t wait to get this beauty!!!
I LOVE THE BLACK LEATHER!!!! This van has everything I want in a van. I just want it in silver, personally. I'm totally going to come down to Florida for one of these when I can.
This coach is amazingly beautiful. Sure wish i had one. I didnt here about how well the insulation is . the thickness. And if its insulated from top to bottom walls doors . propane and butane. Who makes the patriot. The mfg. Co.
appreciate the feedback...I'm gonna look for better stabilization on the next camera (we really go fast and rough on these videos based on time constraints)
Beautiful van conversion. Like to see it with just driver/passenger seat and larger fridge. Also need a permanent bed, option. I hate the idea of having to make up a bed ever night. Also composting/cassette toilet so no need for black tank.
Ok, don’t like the black leather. Small spaces need light colors. Would also like to see lighting in the cabinets. We have and airstream Interstate & the rear overhead compartment is very well lit inside. Would you please show all the lighting options available inside??
The mate' finish is nice i like it better than the high gloss'' but used together is not to bad good job on this one' i worked at Country Coach and have seen the top quality work we did there'' and this'' American coach'' is as close to that top quality as they come thanks again fellas great review and walk through
Thanks for the video.. like the Black w the Gray.. think the best would be All Black- so no dated opposing piping and stitching color.. And yes love the matte finish. A couple other design notes wish AC would address.. the new flush drawers are great but make all the storage space uppers flush too.. go flush at every opportunity ie: the bathroom door.. and get away from the rounded corner routered look.. The induction cook top needs to be 2 burner.. under that counter cover could easily be done and will fit under a counter in the same fashion. Also the sink fixture- so dated looks like a cheap Delta faucet match it to the same style in the bath👍🏻. Also Nick mentioned you can get get the batch door in glass.. would be cool to see the “double door” IN GLASS!! Top Tip Nick I also agree PB sandwiches absolutely Strawberry Jam w Crunchy PB but before you put those slices of bread together put some Lays chips in there!! You won’t go back! Love the video Hank! Thank you and Nick
How expensive is the maintenance? And how often does it need it? How much gallons for miles? After the warranty how expensive is it for repairs? Can you answer these questions?
So the batteries are outside and under the Chassis? Looks like 1. It could get extremely cold in winter 2. It could be damaged when off road Bad battery positioning?
At first look, this is an incredible Class B, all electric unit. Until you continue to search and view owner reviews and the significant issues with the 12v Air Conditioner note able to cool the unit.
Rain in summer? what the heck? we are cooking in California with 110 digress every day here you are so lucky, we wont see rain till December lol and even then we will get 3 drops and done
I like the black seats. Can you have a merffey bed and bigger bathroom put in it. I also think that cherry wood would give it that much more classe. But that just my view. It look great. But I do like the black. And the fact there's no propane. But its not four season.
Nan, it depends on whether your dealer already has a unit with your options in the pipeline. If a dealer ordered one like you want several months ago and is not already pre-sold, you will probably get it quicker than ordering from scratch. It pays to search dealer sites to see what is available. If you find a "coming soon" or "on order" listing, check with the dealer.
that's definitely personal preference for sure (I've noticed my wife likes lighter colors inside)...with the batteries I believe its based on the tech: Battle Born is good in extreme heat and cold temps
@@strangerpalooza I see the Revel as the Swiss Army Knife of RVs. Tries to do everything; but fails to do it all well. Life is compromise, even if I had a disposable $200K, I still don’t think I’d feel content driving a bus pulling à Jeep. Even money doesn’t solve the problem of lack of perfection. We can only try our best.
Can't question the quality of American Coach however, must be said that the bathroom and layout in general lacks innovation There are many bathrooms in smaller vans that offer dry toilets, particularly in European builds. A better bathroom solution would probably also eliminate the need for a shower curtain, at this price range and in 2022 a shower curtain is not a solution nor should it be an option!!! There are so many builds especially independent builds which have much better layouts and are very innovative. Van conversions biggest issue is space so, there should be no door handles sticking out as per the bathroom door. The fridge is far too small. Does the TV always stick out like that? If so, seems poorly designed/considered! I know you said the bed was easy to make but at this price range I'd expect not to be playing tetris to make my bed. Maybe for a secondary bed but, this doesn't offer 4 berths yet seats 4? On overnight trips with 4 people where are the 2 passengers supposed to sleep? Nonetheless, an amazing class b with room for improvement. As always love your vids.
Total garbage. Anyone that owns one will tell you that this company has no right to build anything. M.A.D. is a talentless company, with no understanding of quality in design or manufacturing. If you doubt this review, check out the Facebook group. Then Run.
For the price it is RV it's not very practical you can only sleep with you and your wife That's what I find so stupid about these R v's that they're showing us No real sleeping quarters

I agree with you man it’s really cool and high up on my list…just really nicely done 👍🏾
I would like a light color in a small place like class B. Its more pleasant and make a small place feel larger.
The Beast is so awesome! Luxury and off-road ability in one!
I absolutely love you guys! This channel is always very informative and answers so many of my questions, not to mention the camaraderie between you and Nick! This has definitely become my go to Rv review channel, and I will most likely be purchasing my first Rv through Sunshine State because of it!

Can you do a video of this with just the 2 seats and bigger refrigerator

*That is a Nice RV...Great Coverage!*
That RV cost more than the 1st house I ever bought but its way more amazing.
Exactly. I've noticed that in Europe they are selling RV's of this same class for cheaper.
This coach is amazingly beautiful. Sure wish i had one. I didnt here about how well the insulation is . the thickness. And if its insulated from top to bottom walls doors . propane and butane. Who makes the patriot. The mfg. Co.
@@crypto3815 that is because we keep buying them here and the companies are gouging us! If we would stop buying them, prices would come down.
Love the Coachman top quality and the black leather interior leather seating is styling with comfort thank you for the walk through
Great video! Thanks for your work!
I'm really digging you guys videos doing the rv thing.. props to tha stranges 👍
That is a beautiful 4x4 RV van ! Thumbs up and shared. :)
Wow we need that rain...and the van lol
that thing is awesome!!
Yeah it’s soooo cool, This one is specked out right!
LOVE THE BLACK INTERIOR! 😍
Hank love your vids but your camera swings are distracting...maybe edit them out or go slower.
appreciate the feedback...I'm gonna look for better stabilization on the next camera (we really go fast and rough on these videos based on time constraints)
Waiting for the Ford Transit video.
Beautiful van conversion. Like to see it with just driver/passenger seat and larger fridge. Also need a permanent bed, option. I hate the idea of having to make up a bed ever night. Also composting/cassette toilet so no need for black tank.

I'm waiting for a ford transit md4 AWD. When are they coming? Can we order them?
We ordered our MD 2 and are hoping for delivery maybe next week. Where do you live? I might can help you find a dealer close to you.
The mate' finish is nice i like it better than the high gloss'' but used together is not to bad good job on this one' i worked at Country Coach and have seen the top quality work we did there'' and this'' American coach'' is as close to that top quality as they come thanks again fellas great review and walk through
Did they sort the air condition issues?
Thanks for the video.. like the Black w the Gray.. think the best would be All Black- so no dated opposing piping and stitching color.. And yes love the matte finish.

O
I agree that it needs a double invention burner and the sink does look dated.
How expensive is the maintenance? And how often does it need it? How much gallons for miles? After the warranty how expensive is it for repairs? Can you answer these questions?
So the batteries are outside and under the Chassis? Looks like
1. It could get extremely cold in winter
2. It could be damaged when off road
Bad battery positioning?
Its the mullet of RV's. Business on the outside and party on the in....
Absolutely. Amen.
How safe and secure are those side windows in the back? I feel like that can I can be pry open and seems there is enough space to crawl in?
I would like to have a built in cigar humador ...Ooooweeee!! that would be so sweet.
Oh I’m sure that can be done 👍🏾
Does the free delivery count for Hawaii?
At first look, this is an incredible Class B, all electric unit. Until you continue to search and view owner reviews and the significant issues with the 12v Air Conditioner note able to cool the unit.
Why does the sliding door look like its not closed all the way? Is it normal for it to stick out like that when its closed?
Rain in summer? what the heck? we are cooking in California with 110 digress every day here you are so lucky, we wont see rain till December lol and even then we will get 3 drops and done
Can you just let Nick tell us...? lol
Owsome you guys and vehicle

how much cheaper is the 19 footer
This is the Class B I have been looking at online. Awesome! Do you know how long it takes to get one once you put in order?
Nan, it depends on whether your dealer already has a unit with your options in the pipeline.

@@dking4883 Thanks for the information, I am really enjoying the videos and banter between Nick and you 😀
Nan, Maybe we'll name our van "Beast." This is awesome! Just want it in silver. -Your Niece
I better start playing the lotto ..
when you win (and you will) hook a brother up! ;D
I prefer lighter interior as it feels more spacious. Very masculine look.
Love it!
It would be nice if you could get the CCC of the van,
Too dark inside. Depressing. Isn’t it a problem in cold weather to have the lithium batteries outside?
that's definitely personal preference for sure (I've noticed my wife likes lighter colors inside)...with the batteries I believe its based on the tech: Battle Born is good in extreme heat and cold temps
The batteries have heating pads. We love the darker colors in the one we ordered.
This or the Airstream Interstate?
These guys are not entertaining, they should concentrate on the information. It would be a great show because they do have a good information.
Rather have a Revel with mods by Owl (coming from a guy who’s only experience is from hours of UA-cam videos).
understood, I think if you really want a super off-roader the short wheelbase diesel 4x4 with mods or a jeep
@@strangerpalooza I see the Revel as the Swiss Army Knife of RVs. Tries to do everything; but fails to do it all well.

No real sleeping quarters
Nothing like the old school B RV they thought about sleeping families
@@ralphdadario1949 and for those of us who only travel as a couple, it's perfect.
