- CVDExplorerI looked at the specs and watched nearly all of the video. They really need to have a competent, detailed person write their literature. Why don’t they list things as basic as the coach length, wheelbase and GVCR? It’s kind of difficult to calculate wheelbase/length ratio without either. The 28k GVWR and 10k tow receiver were bragged about a couple times, but it’s meaningless unless the chassis really is setup for towing.
- RayChezExplorerMike Brez your coach picture is upside down. LOL!

Has a rear radiator also. - 2bzy2cExplorer IIHonestly, their price point is pretty darn good. Cutting out the dealer mark up (30+%) makes a huge difference. After watching a few of the videos, I really got tired of being yelled at by the spokesman. Lighten up a little. Relax, we are RVing, trying to get away from the hustle and bustle.
Now I wonder, do I have to go to their location to see the RV's? - bullydogs1ExplorerThe generator is NOT on a slide out tray....which means that servicing it could be more of a shore...we have to see how they come along with this and where they go next..
- Mr_Mark1ExplorerI knew I heard the guy say "the 360 hp Cummins has over 900 lb. ft. of torque", so I looked at the first part of the video again. It's at about 2:37 on the video.
When the two guys are going over the inside and outside, one of them mentions it has "almost 800 lb. ft. of torque". I just can't go through the whole video again to find that time stamp, I'm just remembering it from the other day.

On edit: I don't want to come across as dogging their new RV, it has a lot of plusses going on and if I was in the market for that type of RV, I would consider it. Not all people (actually most) are camera savvy.... I'm surely not. - EffyExplorer IIOverall it's nicely done and a good first generation. Lots of higher end stuff that some of the others aren't using, but a lot of the typical lower end bits too, standard drawer glides, Schwintek slides. AS others have said I too was a little put off that they kept comparing themselves to the competition. Being a factory direct I wonder too about the price negotiation and how free you can be with changes - like adding bedroom windows.
- eheadingExplorerI too watched the video. It is definitely a nice motorhome. I believe that engine is the IXB 6.7 Cummins. Ours has 340 hp, but I understand that now it comes in a 360 hp version. I believe the current ISC is rated at 380hp.
I thought the motorhome was nice (didn't really notice the lack of windows in the bedroom), but I'm wondering if dealing directly with the manufacturer, do they discount their price like dealers do?? If they don't that is a little disappointing price. We actually paid less than that for a 35' Newmar Ventana LE a little less than a year ago.
All in all though, it is probably a good addition to the marketplace.
Ed Headington - RayChezExplorerYes I do agree that the two men making the presentation looked kind of nervous. For sure they were not professional sales personal. I got to admit I did not hear one say that it had 900 lbs of torque. I would have thought that a 34' class A motor home would have the ISB 6.7 350hp with 650 lbs of torque.
The 8.3 ISC 350hp Cummins engine puts out 1050 ft lbs of torque. I would think that it would be too much engine for such a short motor home, unless he was referring to a 36' coach which they did mention they were building.
They did have a lot in that little 34'coach that is usually found on bigger and more expensive coaches.
So either way I am glad to see some new companies coming out with new coaches after the ugly recession this country went through. I hope all the companies that went belly up recover and start re-manufacturing again. We need more competition, maybe that will bring some of the prices down some. - Mr_Mark1Explorer2bzy2c, I also noticed in the first clip that the guy said the coach had over 900 lb. ft. of torque then in the second video, he said 800 lb. ft. of torque.
The presentation was rather unprofessional for a company wanting to claim quality.
