Shoot put me in a straight jacket 🧥 and throw me in that one ☝🏼 lol 😂 😮😊🎉😂❤with all the padded walls and ceilings
This is cool but I can't ever see myself wanting something like this. There's a charm and elegance to the smaller units that is totally lost here. Plus imagine dealing with towing and parking this thing. What a PITA.
Its amazing to me that in 48 feet of trailer, they can't fit a 4 person table or a second bedroom. I have no idea what the market for this thing is but I have no idea why they crammed a 38 foot floorplan into a 48 foot frame. Top marks for the build quality and finish, I will surely never be able to afford one, maybe those who do will appreciate what they have done here.

I've seen double-wides that aren't as nice as this! Honestly, this is appropriate for full time RV life.
I’d love to see them build a 53’ unit. Something similar to most race trailers that are 53’. Something that would do front bedroom mid living room and kitchen and rear loft within the first 40’. That have a 13’ garage. Or do 33’ of living space with a 20’ garage. Add half bath. But mainly I want these front bathrooms to not be connected to the front bedroom

That there is a beautiful 5th wheel, this is something that i wldve gotten to replace the RV i had at the time that i was planning on living permanently in my RV om my land, however i decided to go in the direction of just getting a single-wide manufactured home, but i must admit that this 5th wheel is sooooooo much nicer, but i wanted to have a bit more room, thanks for the tour😊
Very few places you can take that and park it. Gezzzzzzz!😮

JD, it would be great if you could highlight a few things for those of us who like to cook and bake. First, a pantry, if it has one. Second, kitchen storage for pots, pans and dishes. And third, a dishwasher. Sometimes I see these things as you fly through the kitchen but, other times, like this time, I missed it all if it was there.
I love how they maximized space to make every single room feel residential! Awesome. Full time living luxury right there❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a fabulous rig. The only thing they blew it with are those silly dual vanity sinks. Totally unnecessary, and a waste of good space that could be used for something else.
Not too many parks could handle that beast.

Best manufacturer I've seen to date. They're detail to everything is just so noticable. Absolutely beautiful. None above.
This is a beautiful unit! I prefer a mix of wood cabinets, but really nothing negative about the unit. If I was in the market for such a behemoth unit, I wouldn’t think twice about paying $200k for this unit! Heck, I couldn’t even afford the truck to haul this monster. It sure would be nice having this as a home on the road as long as you could handle the stress of hauling it and not flip out when you rub up against a bush or tree branch. Perfect unit for National Parks!

The wife and I lived in a pretty nice 42 foot toy hauler for awhile by circumstance. Then a 32 foot rv, again by circumstance. As impressive as this is it's got nothing on the apartment we now live in lol! That being said it is amazing and I'd love too have something like this someday for beach vacations. We like the beach.... I also just have too make it known as amazing and beyond stupid expensive rvs have gotten the apartment is still better and doesn't require a stupid expensive truck too move around. Note my intention with this comment is positive. Lived in multiple rvs for a long time. It was fun. Just not as nice as a brick and mortar home.
Padded walls? Sounds like a perfect RV for me! Lol

With the padded walls, I would be worried about a water leak and not find it for a while until it causes a lot of damage.
Thanks for this video! Enjoyed it very much! You guys are the best and I find it very kind of you to help Mr.Thomas bless you guys.
Very nice. Would love to have one to live in. Tons of storage space, which I love. I'd cut out that island in the kitchen though and put it where that window with the plugs are. I'd take out one of those sofas in the living room area too, as I prefer recliners. Two recliners would be awesome.
Hey JD! These really are a stunning piece of art! 48 footer... that's certainly a comfortable space to have living in these things full time. The space..... The comfort of having a large living space is so nice instead of the coach we have with the mid bunk, living and kitchen being all one room. Big mistake to have thought we needed a bunk room as an office. Haven't used it as an office once! The separation like here is very nice and comfortable. Like a house would be. Each room is it's own room. Kitchen totally separate from the living to the bed. Just a great layout! That back splash is very nice and looks great in the bathroom too.... right now..... while it's still new and not used yet.... Just wait till you get the splash actually happening to it and then need to clean it. With all the little areas of it, the voids will be a nightmare to keep as clean as I need things to be with my OCD! The storage is another thing overlooked when purchasing this big ol' 43 footer of ours! This coach has it! 800ah of batteries and the 1600 watts solar is fantastic. At this point I've got 800 on the roof and 400 holding the power with the 1500w inverter. Just a starting point of where things need to be to upgrade to what this one has on it. 400ah won't keep the basics on during a late movie night! As if this is in my budget as we've outgrown ours during this first year full time, maybe I'll start a "go fund me" or something to pick up one of these rigs at the price they have them! One day....... Or not!
Great job. It's been awhile since I watched one of your videos, but I'm catching up. Thanks.
Hey JD hope you're having a great day? I love this Luxe Elite! What is the full paint called on this unit? The weight is alot heavier then what I thought. The inside is amazing! The living room area is just amazing with the storage an space. The large TV an the electric fireplace space heater. It took me by surprise with all three AC units having heat pumps in them. You have three heating options in this fifth wheel. I do wish that it had the electric fireplace space heater in the bedroom too. I'm glad that it's a bath an a half.the master bathroom is amazing. The shower fixture is amazing. Thank you JD for showing us this Luxe fifth wheel an giving us all the information on this unit!!! Your number one fan an friend Leonard Nelson from North Carolina!!!! I also like that it comes with 1600 watts of solar an 800 amp hour lithium batteries, plus a 6500 watt generator.!!!!!!
Gorgeous! I will be going thru their 'build' process for one of these :) Thanks!
Insane luxury for sure😮. You could live in that!
Very well laid out! I really like it!
Wow!!! What a beautiful unit.
I couldn't agree with you more that LUXE is one of the Best-of-the-Best dealers on the market. The New Horizons and Spacecraft units are a step above the LUXE brand, but they have very similar build features. We almost bought a 42-foot mid-den unit, but we couldn't get the funding resolved so we ended up with a different brand flagship unit that is a few steps down from this builder. I could live in this unit without any problems, but I agree with Carol Ann that adding an office space would have made a lot of sense for any full-timer. Putting a desk in the living room area would be one possibility and is probably the only space in this floor plan that would work the best.

Beautiful RV but probably way out of my price range. Thanks JD for the tour. Love it, especially for full time living. Would probably go with a HDT class 8 truck to pull it with.
This is amazing! I love it lol I never thought I would find the 5th wheel I've been dreaming of! The only thing I would change would be the orientation of the dining room table ❤
MSRP $498,918. Factory direct $344,082. Maybe not this exact one, but close.
Thank you for this great well informed video
I love the set up.
Seen a lot of LUXE campers on video, none in person. They look amazing. With that said I have seen lots of videos, and in person of Brinkley campers seems to me they are the new 5th wheel campers to compete with for the amazing value, and giving campers exactly what they want.

We looked at the Brinkley, and they really are nice. They have very little units as of now, so maybe one day when they get more coaches to choose from. Right now we really love everything that Alliance has put out. If you haven’t seen the Alliance’s, you should check them out.
Awesome and Beautiful.
very nice RV, I would of liked to see a full bath and another bedroom in the back, only one shower makes it bad when you have guests
I LOVE THIS 5th WHEEL AND THIS COMPANY. IF I STILL LIVED IN THE USA, I WOULD MOST DEFINITELY HAVE ONE. I ALSO LOVE YOUR CONTENT KEEP IT UP 👍🙂
my favorite, best kitchen and bath ever
Question -- do they make a drivable rv??? This was simply GORGEOUS. It's ideally everything I would want with a few changes (stainless steel sink and better quality fireplace) but I loved the quality and the decor.
Beautiful rig, no doubt. This, in conjunction with the truck you'd have to have, is not for the occasional user. It would be hard not to be happy with this trailer. Thanks, J.D. for another great video.
A really nice trailer. For a “best of the best” trailer, it’s surprising it has a standard porcelain foot flush toilet, I can’t understand they wouldn’t have gone with a high end macerating toilet, and the location of the toilet seems awkward. They also went with a standard gray/black discharge, not one of the high end powered units with the much better small diameter discharge hoses. If I’m paying $500000 for a trailer, I would think this would be standard. I also really think they should have gone with a fibreglass back cap. He says they can’t because of the storage door, but for a half million dollar trailer, they should be able to engineer that. I realize these are “first world problems” but for a half million bucks I would expect everything should be top of the line.
FYI, 48' is the second longest length of a semi trailer. 53' and 48'.
Just gorgeous!
Absolutely beautiful
I absolutely love this. Instead of the dinette, I'd put more kitchen cabinets for storage. Otherwise, I'd buy this!
I love it and I could totally be happy with it, too.
Nice fifth wheel, love it. Downside of this, too long. We currently have a 38, and we have issues finding parks where we can park the rig and tow vehicle on site. Love the unit and the paint, nice.
I love this setup.
we toured the factory in December 2022 and they were building that model , we ordered a 46 FB Toy Hauler , we went with LUXE over New Horizon DRV due to the craftsmanship and yes the weight of the unit is heavy we went to Home Depot and picked out the backsplash that we wanted we made some small changes in the garage area ,added a solar package with 10ea 250 watt panels on the roof with 4 270 AMP hour lithium batteries plus the space to add 2 more batteries at a later date all of the solar is controlled with Victron units Certified RV installed it all The unit is done just waiting on Ford to build our F450 Limited been on the order list since Mar 2022 So we are patiently waiting
That's the same as pulling a 53ft Tractor trailer, that thing is BEAUTIFUL
Like the floorplan. With all the tech that's out today I'd opt for an all electric 5th wheel. Plenty of roof area to have a nice solar array also. Other than that looks pretty nice in and out.

Wow, super sophisticated
its a gorgeous Rv but not really sure why they would make it 48 feet long and only make it a 1-bedroom unit. I understand people want a bigger living and kitchen area but the size of those areas in this rv is unwarranted especially with only 1 bedroom, IMO. thanks for the tour, you always do such a great job displaying and giving us all the information on these RVs.

If you think about it, when there's only two people living full time and the comfort and space of the rooms, this is perfect! The space. The interior storage. It's like living in a small apartment while being full time traveling. This is a dream coach for my wife and I! Way beyond my budget but it's still just a dream to have one like this!! haha
The dark wood behind the tv is gorgeous I’d like to see that throughout ❤❤
It’s Beautiful JD, but We love the Paradigm 382RK for they same layout as this. It’s a whole lot less money, and also lighter to pull. We are trying to decide between that and their 370FB. I’ll add the 8K axles, with the ID suspension and the brakes along with dual pane windows for a whole less money. If I wanted all the Amenities that this Luxe offered, I’d rather go with a Newmar A class. Excellent post as always!

LUXE 5TH WHEEL RV ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST 5TH WHEELS ON THE MARKET . YES THEY ARE HEAVY , WELL INSULATED AND MADE WITH FINEST MATERIALS AND YHEY ARE EXPENSIVE. THIS UNIT IS AT LEAST $321,000 PLUS TAX. ADD THE RAM 5500 TRUCK AND THIS PACKAGE WOULD BE AROUND $460,000 PLUS TAX.
i can finish the rest of my life on this amazing RV.
I lobe the rear kitchen. Our King of the road had a rear kitchen. Its was awesome.

Need bunk beds that can be converted into an office space. Seen it once before
Wow! That is actually a more functional, and probably larger, kitchen than in my house!
I just saw this unit in Vegas. The rep said they can install up to 12 200-amp solar panels and up to 14 batteries. She also said that you can run all 3 ACs on such solar system.
Very Nice.............if I had space I would have one ......................
If I had this I would tow it with a Volvo single axle truck and a 12 speed I -shift for super smooth luxury.
I assumed by the look on the outside it would look like a high end motor home on the inside but just like most other ones I have been in.
Where's the propane storage and what's capacity of tanks? beautiful unit 🍻
The name Luxe says it all. It will be my next RV.
When are you going to do a podcast on Spacecraft ? You talk about one off top of the line 5th wheels built to order. Oh yes there pricey as all get out but u get what u pay for.
That's high end!
I like it nice unit
Awesome!!!
This dude could sell anything "High End".
Wow those side walls are tightly packed in there
Nice. Although that kitchen has three different tones of wood color in that one area. Makes it feel a bit ‘busy’ visually. Minimal contrasting tones will make it look even higher end.
Love it, want it !!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That cupboard you said could hold cutting boards, people use it for pizza pans , cookie sheets. Really anything that's long and flat.
This is what I’ve been looking for to live in perfect layout and set up so far 13:56
I don’t like the attached island should either be the other way or a bit shorter so you can walk around it
The only changes that I would do all black countertops, get rid of the half bath, put the washer and dryer down there and make the shower much bigger in the master with a sit down bench Also so the wife can shave whatever i’m not sure if I would go to rim 5500 or go up to the Freightliner with the Detroit DD 13 or 15 with the 12 speed automatic I think it would be better suited to handle the weight but you also have to remember I am a truck driver
Gorgeous. Definitely a quality built unit. 48’ is the length of a semi-trailer. Will this brand be your next camper? Forget your F-450, get the Ram 5500 or a larger truck for this one. Actually this is glamping lol. Thank you for showing this.

My f450 pickup out tows my 5500s and 6500s all day...another 125hp and 350lbft over cab chassis...no kidding its a monster.
I would hope that Luxe had learned that those pop-up power outlets in the kitchen are more trouble than they're worth. Users have been experiencing issues with water getting down in there causing rust.
I like it.
Stunning huge amazing ...How much 300k 400k?
JD... Have you ever said which you prefer for heavy towing, 5th wheel or Gooseneck? Personally, I wouldn't tow this with anything short of a medium duty or Class 8 truck. BTW, the 44' doesn't shorten the kitchen by 4 feet. It takes a little out of each room.
Love it
Did I miss the $. I am picking up my Riverstone 442mc later this week. I think the only thing that this unit has on my Riverstone is more solar and weight
I ❤it, almost perfect.
