Hello everyone, welcome to my channel. Like so many others, my lifestyle changed due to the pandemic.
Before the pandemic, my families lives had become so hectic & busy that there never seemed to be a good time to travel anymore. Somewhere along the line we realized that our last vacation was in 2011. We decided that it was time we made some travel plans.
Then the pandemic hit! I no longer wanted to travel by plane or stay in a hotel. We decided that a bettter and safer alternative would be to travel in our own vehicle, one that we could also sleep in, cook our own meals in, vacation in. The rest is history!
However, the RV shopping process is not easy and required a lot of research. I want to share what I have learned along with my ongoing experiences and adventures through my channel which offers:
RV tours / walkthroughs
Camping destinations
Hiking
RV modifications & DIYs
RV Cooking
And much more…..
So I invite you to come along with me on this ongoing RV journey.

The pleasure Way Transit is awesome. Such great quality in a B van. Was definitely one of my favorites from that smaller show.

Yes, Canadian Pleasure-Way (P-W) is at the very least "above average" quality-wise (and warranty!) when it comes to making RVs. Leisure Travel Vans (aka: LTV, owned by Triple E, also high-rated) is another Canadian RV maker...but sadly they don't make Class Bs -- just small Class Cs (still nice though, even if larger than Bs). I've heard the Panoramic ("VR Panoramic") is a third brand of well-made Class Bs...yes, also Canadian (Quebec). Whatever, it seems Canadian RV makers (be they motorized or towables) are MOSTLY above-average quality. American RV makers? Not so much...but some years back the Coachmen Beyond had good reviews: Even if Coachmen is not a quality RV maker, the Beyond (Class B) seemed to be an exception. Not sure how it rates currently. -- BR
Fast paced but good presentations, thanks Ruby!
Excellent show case. The Midway Passage and the Coachman Galleria were my favorites.

Hello Mike, glad you enjoyed the tours. Thank you so much for watching!
Some excellent choices Ruby. The Coachman 22 Beyond looks incredibly roomy. The rear shower appeals to me, and would probably opt to using an outdoor shower most of the time. Storage becomes the issue. It’s really a tough decision. Nice job again Ruby!
the Beyond is the best out of the bunch but no thanks to all of these, they all have the same cramped boring floor plan basically, good for 1 person and a dog or 2 short people for a week outing. The Oasis, the Hymer Venture S off road, Ekko, and Unity RB are the best smaller RV ones ive seen so far.
Whoa. You snuck this one in while I was on vacation. Great reviews as always.....

After extensive research we went with a 2022 Travato KL we bought new in Sept 2021 for $126K. After 2 years and 23K miles, we still think we found the perfect travel van. The primary reason is the fact the K and KL twin beds make into a large bed that's nearly a King. We haven't measured but it's obviously more than a queen, we have a king at home and it's right there. That's hard to find on any RV, but esp a class B. This design also provides a wet bath in the very back, which is nice for more than the occasional odor. Since the main shower head easily reaches outside, weather permitting I normally shower there for more room using the privacy curtain hung between the doors. The 10K watts of power lasts forever and we love it charges while driving. We don't stay in one place long, therefore we're always charging, and we haven't plugged in for shore power in over 1 year. Despite ours made early during Covid, we feel the quality isn't plush, but for what we paid it's darn good. Since all utility connections are inside the back door, except the shore power, we can park and travel stealth much more often. We park overnight at golf courses, they have tons of open parking at night and normally in safe/quiet areas, also at hospitals or medical centers. We even parked in Denver across the street from a police substation, since we didn't know the area real well and it was late. One thing we'll tell you from experience, Travato owners are high, in general, on their dual pane windows. Ours was to have them as well but it was our only supply chain issue and would have incurred an indefinite delay. We chose not to wait and went with the glass sliders and happy we did. Many owners have issues with windows falling out and some have broken the awning window by opening the large slider door into the open window. We also believe the insulation aspect of the dual pane isn't an issue for us. When you learn how to use reflectix or other materials for temp control it offsets no dual pane. They can also scratch easily - think of looking out of airline windows - and how bad they often appear. We enjoy ours and hope to use it more. Good luck searching and happy travels.

Hello David, I use this: amzn.to/3aOrByQ - Progressive Ind. 30 Amp Portable RV Smart Surge Protector for both campgrounds as well as when I am plugged in at home. I combine that with a amzn.to/2YZH7G0 - Camco - 15 Amp Male to 30 Amp Female for when I am plugged in at home on my regular 110v outlet. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
As someone who has owned 3 class b's (as well as other rv's), having to make your bed everyday is a PITA. There aren't many but vans that have a dedicated lounge and bed are the way to go.

Hello, I can understand how making the bed everyday can be viewed as a hassle for many people. Having owned 2 B-vans myself, I simply view it as a daily chore to get the day started since I make my bed at home everyday anyway. Thank you so much for watching!
Most people are now looking for a pass thru door from the driver/passenger area to the home portion and more built in blackout features for windows instead manually covering them.

The new Mercedes Chassis are AWD however some RV manufacturers still have some left over 4X4 chassis that they are still building out so you need to check the year of the chassis. It is very common for the Chassis to be a year or two older than the actual RV. For example my 4X4 sanctuary was built on a 2020 Mercedes even though it is a 2022 RV. Thanks for watching!
