Hi Bobojay

Been absent muchly from this site as I sold my Pleasureway Plateau ts and bought a 4 slide Montana, which I just sold.
I have just bought a 2015 Dynamax Rev 24tb which is really what we needed for versatile travelling options. It is really high quality. If one doesn't want a slide version with heavier weights and possibly handling problems(maybe) but with all the necessities including a full bathroom, which is the nemesis for B or B plus rigs, then I think it works unless one has to have a toad back there. Not me.
The quality of everything is really amazing for me, one who has owned 3 motorhomes already. I think the Promaster chassis and the Rev 24tb set up will work fine and is well balanced. The power is there and the steering is good as well as road manners, and, MPG.
cheers

$67k stated starting price before negotiating is a pretty good deal if you ask me. It's right there with the Trend/Viva, probably lower in the end.

If you think "less" is more than this is the rig for you.

Less space, storage, power, towing and a lot less money left in you pocket. Nearly $100,000 for these things (don't forget the Trend and Travato), is way beyond absurd. If they were priced under $50K they would still be over priced but would probably sell like hot cakes. For less than half the money we got twice as much 24' C.

:S

Here it is guys: 24TB

Hate the colors inside on this one but like the price....

The brochure shows it on the Dodge Promaster chassis which I hope they stick with otherwise its just another expensive Sprinter B+. I hope to see more manufacturers using the Dodge Promaster, Nissan NV and Ford Transit chassis for the compact B+ units in the future.

We do not plan to tow (not a car, anyway) but we carry >200 lbs. of bikes and rack off the back. I think the tail would be wagging my dog.

Has anybody seen a 24TB or anything that anybody has one yet?

Some dealers are saying they will have them in January. One told me that it may be delayed, as Dynamax is trying to decide wether to release it with the diesel engine instead.

I notice that the Dynamax web site fails to give either the dry weight of the Rev or its CCC, but only the GVWR and GCWR. I suspect that there's not much cargo capacity given the 9350 pound GVWR.

I looked at a 24RB at Terry Town RV in Grand Rapids. The OCCC as listed on the yellow sticker for that unit is 1175 #.

Compared to Winnebago Trends (only other Promaster Cs in the US) that I have looked at:
23L OCCC = 1437 #
23B OCCC = 1302#

Has anybody seen a 24TB or anything that anybody has one yet?

Been checking out the new Dynamax REV 24tb on the new Promaster chassis with the twin rear beds online, looks like the kind of floor plan I want but its disappointing with single rear wheels and only 2000lb towing. I guess this is aimed at owners who are definitely not towing!

The Promaster doesn't have dual rear wheels in any configuration. It's not an option offered by Ram.

I'm not sure that dualies on a front wheel drive vehicle make as much sense as on a rear wheel drive vehicle, either. The weight on the front wheels is relatively constant as the carrying capacity of the vehicle increases (more so than the back wheels, at least), and with too much weight you'd start being limited by what sort of traction the drive wheels can produce. This would especially be problematic with class C motorhomes where the front end sometimes tends to be light and the rear heavy.

The Promaster seems to be a pretty nice chassis (from what I've read), within its capabilities, but it appears to be designed for comparatively lighter rather than heavier applications. A big, capable RV chassis with large carrying and towing capacities wasn't their target.
