Hey Matt and Andrea, Rick and Shelby here! Great job on the review! We picked up the Cross Trail 20CBT last weekend and are loving it so far. You guys nailed it with the likes and dislikes. The bathroom is tight but, coming from a Class B it's a major improvement! The step is annoying, and the J lounge could have been so much better if it had the pull-out feature like Andrea mentioned. You summed up the likes nicely at the end, Class B driving experience with a Class C floorplan and price point! So glad we ran into you guys that day at MHSRV! Thanks for all your help and keep up the good work!

You two are by far my favorite to watch showing RVs. There is not one RV person out there that shows everything on an RV like you two do. They either spend to much time talking about stuff I don't care about and not enough on things I do. You two have perfected a balance of everything you need to know. Great job you 2 have nailed it.

Likes: bathroom, bunk over the cab, kitchen Thank you Andrea for all that you do! The best duo doing reviews. Thanks Matt.

They paid $89,999 , it’s the sticker on the window. Lol

I just want to say I have been watching you and your wife since the beginning and I love love your videos! I tried to watch someone that had a review of this van and I literally changed it in two seconds no one does a review like you! Thank you so much for all the great videos.

It would be helpful if once you walked into the coach and before or after Andrea does her famous "how much room with the slide in walk" you showed a steady panoramic view from the front towards the rear for just a moment so we can see it in its entirety in order to appreciate the size and overall aesthetics.

We decided to buy a truck and travel trailer. We went with the Imagine by Grand Design. I wish all of the RV manufacturers would put better beds in the RV’s. I love watching you two!!

This was really informative and entertaining! Thank you

I really like this one. Much more room than a class B and no slide outs which I prefer. The only dislike is the the sink right next to the bed but I don't see a way around it. Solar set up would be nice too. I would take out the seat or the j lounge to have room for an impact crate. I would love to have one of these for dog events.

Cute little B+. I like the floorplan except for the radius shower but understand the reason. The price is actually good compared to other units. By the way, I used your link to buy a USteps 13.5 ladder. It's heavy but I will say it is very cool. It will be great to use on our 2021 Bounder to get up and wash the roof do roof maintenance. Also great around the house.

Perfect ! Nice job love the size thanks

Hey Matt and Andrea, thanks for the review! I love this little cutie! Like that it has a shower slide door not a curtain, the interior colors and the outside storage! Wish the sink was bigger and a microwave with convection oven would be great! Keep on keepin' on!

Ji matt andrea. Unna. Will and jen. Love you guys. Hi. Excellent videos as usual. Love the showe. Wow. And its 23 ft. Long. Love the ford chasis. Why dont chevy have the chasis available like ford does. Love the qween size bed. Or is it a queen size. Wish it was a king size. The bed stays put. This unit i would buy for the comfortable bed. Comfort is no 1. 2nd. The flooring should be all flat. No step up. Its dangerous. I dont like the bed that raises up and down. Not handy to me. It would be my luck the motor would stop working and couldnt get into bed to sleep. Do they make this coach and the 2022 models the extreme package plan.all 4 seasons. All electric. Tankless hot water contenious outside. Just in case it starts to leak. This is a wonderful coach. I cant buy now. My credit is lousey. The pandemic messed up mine and everyones life. At least 15 million people is out of work as yet. Same here. Ive got some good credit tho. The rent is out ragious. Way to high. Anywhere and everywhere. Some people say move where the is cheaper out of town out of the usa. I said what. Are you crazy. Im staying in texas. I live in dallas texas. Its my home town. So i told my neighbor im shopping around for a unit like this one. Big enough for 2 people comfortable. Dont want a class c at all. This may be perfect for us. Would be nice if this unit had a swivel dinnete table to lower to a bed for our son to stay with us awhile.he is 5.11ft. Tall. He might like to buy a unit like this one. He has perfect credit. He would never co sign for us or anyone. Jobs is very shakey in texas. My husband has been out of work 6 mo. Before the pandemic hit. No work since. He is a painter. Handyman. Nobody is hireing hourly or contracted here. He is contracted. I have a medium standard soc.sec. check. If he doesnt get work this year before our apt. Lease is up. Ee will be homeless and houseless. Like out on the street. Our son pays 1500.00 monthly in apt. Rent. Plus a 100.00 light bill. We told him he needs a motor coach like the winnebago ekko. So we think he has checked it out. He wont tell us. I told him if he decided to buy anything to tell me. So do not buy from anyone unti you talk to matt on matts r.v.reviews. i told him you and andrea is on utube. Had 3 different ways to contact matt. He can really help you and us. Plus save money to. Sept. 1st. Our apt. Lease is up. The rent goes up then we are out of here. Wont have any food money at all. For now our son helps all he can monthly. 200.00 it helps. But not enough. We fo have some food money. We are tired of eating out of can goods. Hardly any meat in a week. 4 days. Stretching it out. Sad. Cant cook in the apt. Stove. The stove is 20 yrs. Old or older. Needs the trash can. Smells bad the oven. We have lived here 5 yrs. This place is no good. The bldg. Is 58 yrs.old. decent. Passable. Carpet is 15 or 20 yrs. Old. Needs replaced. Wall units needs replaced. 20 to 30 yrs. Old. Works decent. Could be a. Lot better tho. Most apts. In our area is 925.00 plus lights. We pay 800.00 plus lights. This is half my check. Wr have car payments of 431.22. Got the car 2 months before the pandemic hit. 2019 subcompact car. Mits. Mirage. 4 dr. It has a. 1.7 engine. Barely has power. Cant carry over 600lbs. We weigh 300lbs. Total. Anyway. If we could get a unit like this. Wewe could live in it. All 4 seasons. Save on hotel money. Hotels rip off the wallet. Go broke in a hurry.

Nice review guys! I've never owned an RV before, but, if I ever decided to get one, this seems to be the perfect size to start with.

Always like your reviews guys!

Don't just work Matt, Andrea just said she needs more time with u and u don't wanna loose her heard!!!!♡♡♡ Family first even tho I know u r working 4 them. You are enough man. Love u all. Awesome video!!

Your the best Matt! I love that you do videos for the budget RVers! Not just expensive models. I look forward to every video.

Another great review. The CCC and storage is fabulous for such a small rig!! Agree on the little bathroom. Not so sure I like the little single bench seat. Doesn’t look like you can reach the dining table from it. Would prefer the passenger seat swivel and or possibly put a small cabinet there. Hard to say without actually being in it.

I just love watching you guys!! 😊

Can you guys review the floor plan that’s shown at the start of the video? That has one slide for the queen bed, the kitchen placement is different than what I’ve seen before, and the bathroom looks much more workable (probably still not PPP but the shower looks larger). I’ve watched some other folks do walk throughs on RV’s and campers and I always wish you guys could step in and do it because you show all the storage and how functional the bathroom is.

Love the dinette, love the outdoor storage, love the shower. No oven, didn’t like the corner bed and no PPP.

First of all I’ve been a big fan for a long time. this RV is exactly what I’ve been looking for I feel it’s like a super size class B . Just went to an RV show in Connecticut the prices were obscene they’re nowhere close to the prices you guys quote on KZread when I’m ready to pull the trigger I will definitely contact mats RVs

Hey Matt and Andrea could you show the model that goes with the floorplan you showed at the beginning please? Think I will like that one much better.

Which one would you recommend for cold weather conditions. Better yet do they make any for handy cap people? Love you videos.

Thanks Matt for a great review,, you keep it simple for a non RV'er like me. Can you break down price as compared to living in a real home? No Solar? That would have been a nice addition in this package.

💕 amazing thanks for sharing!!

I bought a 2020 version two years ago that has the same floor plan. The passenger seat does swivel, and the J lounge converts to a bed. It is child sized, but I've learned that if you slide the driver's seat all the way forward and use the corner cushion plus a small patio furniture cushion it is large enough for my six foot tall brother. My biggest dislike was no struts on the overhead cabinets, but fifteen dollars at the hardware store fixed that!

@@randystuart938 I wanted three beds because a lot of my trips are with two adult friends or my two grown daughters. Everyone has their own spot, and relative comfort is king. The recliner would have been nice for relaxing inside the RV but in practice I don't spend much time inside. I did research recliners at one time. there are a few that should fit if you decide to go that route. My needs won't necessarily match everyone else's.

Wow CCC I like this one. Damn just when I got into a writing mood ustep comes on.ughhhh now I forgot what I was going to say. Cheers!!!

Merry Christmas and Blessings to all! The floor plan you pictured isn't correct. Question for you, does anyone make/option for a twin bed in corner so a single person can have the convenience of making the bed plus getting in and out of the bed? love your reviews.

Matt's so funny when he gets excited: "Park, drive, neutral"

Hi Matt & Andrea, great review on this unit. it has a nice floor plan. If they would of added swivel front seats and an adjustable 360 degree Swivel table it would really enhance this floor plan. We are planning our first long distance RV trip, Key Largo, Florida to Alaska. Instead of going threw Canada we have elected to take the Ferry from Bellingham, Washington to Alaska. Because our last class C motor home had some issues and quite a few miles on it, we upgraded, we just took delivery on a 2022 Renegade Explorer 40 ERB. This thing is like a 5 star hotel on wheels. We have a few months before we leave to get this beast ready for the trip. Probably leave in early May and make a slow track from Florida to Washington State....

love it i will get this one

I like this a lot. As a parent my one big difference for me when looking is the three point seatbelts for backseat passengers. Do any dealerships install them in dinettes like this?

I love your videos, but you saying I almost own this dealership !!! Got my cracking up 😅😂🎉

I feel like this a great RV for a solo traveler to tour across the country, i'd probably swap the toilet for a porcelain but yea looks great.

At 6'1, I kick and break that kitchen splash guard when I sleep.....also, if you are still in Alvarado, review the Dynamax isata 5 28ss with explorer package! Please please please

Matt I love your energy.

I think the bathroom door could have been solved by using a sliding/articulated door. I also agree with Andrea about the J lounge access. It needs the front side open-able. Maybe make a leaf or swing out on the table for that instead of a solid piece. Overall, nice RV.

This camper is very similar to ours but ours is a freelander and less floor space and we have less booth room. We have that step too. Always afraid of falling off at night haha. The J lounge is much more room than we have. Not that bad at all

I am not in the market to buy an RV, but the sub 25 foot variant is the one I would buy because it is just enough to get the job done. My only complaint is that the electronics have not caught up with the times when it comes to off griding. A battery tray that can handle 4 batteries (preferably a bank of 12.8 volts and 400 amps of LIFePO4), a 4kw inverter, and more solar in my opinion should be a factory option. More time without needing to use the generator.

I really liked this rig. I would prefer an all electric, lithium package 📦 instead of the propane and generator. Also, a compressor fridge is important for me.

Hey Guys!!!! I'm in love with this one. It's perfect for me.

It looks like a different floor plan at 16 seconds than the coach reviewed here. I think it was labeled wrong. Nice review thanks. This is very much like our 2020 Coachman Orion. Do you think they just relabeled and updated it for 22?

Matt and Andrea: great video on a small C . Much better than a B unless you must have the Mercedes chassis. I love the CCW on this. Gas mileage is decent Outside storage is very good Kitchen space is very nice Dislikes: The dinette looks very hard to use. If you need to make the fridge smaller, please do it. The bath entry is way too small, and I’m a fit and trim individual. That little seat behind the cockpit is nice but looks very uncomfortable. Thanks again guys.

the layout of the rig in the beginning is of the Rockwood travel trailer -we own a 2608BS. Is it a sign to stop looking and keep ours? Thanks for the review.

Great floor plan and overall good value!

Nice Review, thank you for sharing idol.

lol .... the beginning of the video shows a rockwood travel trailer floorplan. I was a little confused on that one when Andrea said there were no slideouts ....😆

Love the outside storage!

More FYI. I was reading in the FB forum on this model line about road noise. Maybe that’s a topic to address in the walk-thrus - how are units lowering road noise.

Hi Matt and Andrea! My dislikes are the same as yours and my likes are the same as well. This time we like and love the same thing. It’s a nice class B +. Thank you Matt and Andrea for showing this Rv.

Great review

Would it be feasible for you to use a drone for the roof shots?

With that high CCC - swap out the plastic toilet for a porcelin would be the first thing I'd do, still have plenty of CCC to spare.

Love this RV!

Just found out reading reviews. Under 89 K, thz pretty good best thing, mpg and shower, nice

The transits where high on my list until the recent recall on the 3.5 twin turbo engines. Of which i own a 2019 f150, which is now having cam phaser issues, luckily its under warranty. I know ford overhead cam engines including the 4.6 and 5.0 have this same issue. I would have thought after 20 plus years ford would have fixed this. The transit fell off my list. Anyone looking at a transit based rv needs to read up on the ford cam phaser issues.

hi Matt. Thanks for your video. does this engine is same noise as class C V8 engine ?

I like the configuration, but can’t tow 7k toll, can it seat on f350 diesel 4x4?

Do you make hybrid and solar power for electricity and induction stove instead of gas

I really like this!

I still can't understand why RV dinettes with mounted tables is ever a good idea. Especially when space is at a premium, and versatility is a must.

I'm a little worried about the seams in the over the cab sleeping area, I think it will leak, but silicone can fix that down the road.

Overall I like it. But I’d swap out the dinette for a comfy couch and laguna table/s, porcelain toilet, and add an oven. And I’d yank out the bunk mattress and use that to store bikes. Peace - John

I wish they had dog crate storage under the bed or a place to wedge one in behind the drivers seat. I like the table but needs to be a lagoon and not quite so big.

Suggestion: how about show how practical are these RVs that you are showing? Eg. Where and what size Keurig coffee maker fit on countertop or storage for air fryer, InstaPot, etc…another suggestion is for any full time RVers who needs space for computer and printer…etc

. Don't like TV up at over head bunk & skylight/venting. Just want slide open side windows, ta look outside before & after sleeping. So I don't have to get out of bed. Ha.Ha.Ha & ya'lls do a wonderful job at everything with the interesting info videos. Ha.Ha.Ha

I do like it, Azdel siding and all. Do wish Coachman had other Transit floorplans before jumping to the E chassis, like a murphybed or queen slide option. For me, a corner bed is a non-starter, plus it look like a narrow full. Coachman needs to move up to Fords 178" wheelbase chassis vs the 156" and would give additional necessary interior space that would resolve your dislikes and having to choose between wardrobe or pantry and cramped one way J lounge entry. A bit puzzled why at least one of the chairs don't swivel. Matt, the Transit can tow over 2000lbs - just not this one and every other one that has huge rear storage (like LTV's rear twin drops to 2000, but other floorplans at 4000lb). That is the cost of the monster storage. Think about it, all that potential stored stuff is directly over the hitch. If you guestimate 200 lbs stored, that's 200 removed from hitch weight, so safer to put the lower rated Class II hitch when the chassis itself can handle more. Also, think of trailer hitch loading principles - fore and aft of the axel makes a huge difference in hitch weight. 100% of the storage compartment is behind the rear axel, so it's contents will directly impact the tow rating.

Coachmen: please remove the step up as well as the lower cabinet and put the faucet there instead. Flushed. More space. Make the window bigger. The cabinet colors too. Keep up.

Matt!!!! 😂 Janet Jackson moment 😂😵😂

Can u help me out. Looking for a 30 foot motor home. Gas. King bed. Bigger refrigerator. Theater seats. Maybe a washer dryer combo. Class c or class A???

I really like this model. It would be great though that if you go with the Transit, the front end design would be more sleek with a reduced “boxy” overhead. If you go with the regular can then sure, keep the “C” look with the overhead. I’d also like to see a bigger rear storage door but that’s a soft critique. On the inside, something with the J dinette so you can sit and watch TV, maybe rethink it for theatre type chairs or a sofa with an adjustable table. That’s it :) love the channel.

Coachmen had produced a model called the Orion Traveler that has curved panels where the cab meets the coach body and it has the aerocap over the cab. They have full-body paint instead of a white cab and decals. I've seen a new 2019 model selling for 68k. Prices have clearly gone up since then

Great review! I wish I was a smaller person. I would not be able to fit behind the wheel of that sized RV comfortably... nor the dinette nor the bathroom... LOL much too small for a 5'-10" 350 pound man! LOL
