Is it wrong of me that I’m drooling with excitement over this? I would do just about anything to own one except sell everything I already own. My finances can’t squeeze this purchase into my portfolio but FMN, momma likey A LOT!!!!! If I get to Florida I’m coming for sure!
Tank sizes and locations? What type of tank heating is used? What is the lowest temp you can still use this van in.. with normal water use? What type of insulation and sound proofing is used? What's the specs on windows? Battery options? What size inverter? What type of heating? Are there now positive latching drawers or still the fake knobs? Auto leveling? Auto gen start?
The only thing I like on this B+ over the LTV is the air suspension which can be added to any Mercedes van. An Airstream Atlas price is a little steep. The Airstream Atlas and the LTV product are the only B+ motor homes I would consider.
So with those outside hatches it looks like you have to crouch down to get under the doors. That’s going to make lifting anything heavy in and out hard.
Amazing. Thx. for free video. Very interesting to see how the industry is adapting to vanlife custom builds, for example taking off the juvenile decals on the outside. I do feel it's insane to have the undermount storage compartments come out with the slide. Why would anyone want to add that much more weight on to your slide? I don't feel it's an appropriate thing for a RV owner to want, it's not reasonable.
I got to say I do love the ceiling I have been watching a lot of different videos looking at buying a van in the future so I'm trying to get as much info as I can
i know im asking randomly but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Romeo Zaire Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm trying it out now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@@AirstreamofSouthFlorida South Florida and winter, WOW, what could possibly go wrong. You don't even begin to understand what winter is! -40F in a wind will clue one in very quickly!
In width it is a king but a standard queen is 80 inches long . I am 6 ft 5 do not like hanging my feet off the end 73 inches is only 6ft 1 do you have a insert to accommodate taller people. I hope so or you are losing many sales due to the 1950s size bed length. If it had a bed to accommodate me I would buy one as it is a fine coach. looks like it would last for years expensive but worth it.
@@erics9754 there is an added 9.5 inches at the top to extend the bed. the Atlas allows the bed to be deployed while the slide is in.... this is a feature that is hard to duplicate in the industry. this is the max this bed can be and can opened during travel.
@@AirstreamofSouthFlorida Thanks for the quick response. Who ever did this video did a great job of presenting. When me and my wife do buy it will be a Airstream. I believe in buying the best that I can afford or even a little more than I can afford lol. It does and will save you aggravation and money in the long run. Satisfaction pride and long term ownership are what we care about when looking at a RV.
The OCCC on this is problematic. At less than 1000 pounds, the owner’s manual recommends you wait until you are in the campground before filling water tank. Tank capacity is low, too,; perhaps out of concern for the low OCCC. I would wish for a non-slide layout with twin beds or an island bed. That would add several hundred pounds of OCCC. It would also allow for the fresh water tank to be inside the coach, under a bed, allowing for greater cold weather utility. As is, this is a great coach for high-end campgrounds, but not very useful for dry camping. I do love the compressor fridge but wish it came with lithium batteries. He did not mention that the toilet is plastic, presumably to save weight.
I agree. It's probably not designed or marketed for boondockers. Replacing the batteries with lithium will add to the OCCC but it's still really not enough. It certainly is one of, if not the most beautiful class B+ and I'd bet comfortable coaches on the market today. There are other brands out there that have low OCCC in their 2020 models as well.
RBarbo True, this OCCC is way better than Tiffin Sprinter coaches of similar size . The Airstream promotional materials show dry camping and that is misleading.
It's beautiful BUT needs: hydraulic leveling jacks--very hard to sleep on slopes. Also desparately needs updated electtrical system...has lead acid batteries...at this price point, should have a lithium system like Winnebago's Boldt
@@AirstreamofSouthFlorida those are OK but not fabulous. My intent isn't too bash this product. It's beautiful and your video is excellent. I am in the market for a high end Sprinter based MH but I'm trying to check a lot of boxes, including lithium batteries capable of replacing generator and running a quiet AC unit. There currently isn't anything on the market that checks all the boxes. I suppose I could have the Atlas electric upgraded but that's likely to cost about $30k on top of a pretty hefty price tag. Is there an option to add hydraulic leveling to the Atlas?
And don't forget the fine print - with Airstream, if your dealer can't (or won't) fix a warranty issue, it is your responsibility, and completely at your cost, to get the coach back to its point of manufacture, Ohio.
It's all spelled out in the Airstream warranty documentation. And I have no personal knowledge one way or the other regarding your dealership. I'm speaking from my own experience owning a new RV for the past 12 months.
Why can't American RV companies use colors that aren't crazy ?? Overly dark interior ?? WTF !! European companies always beat us. Europeans are not color blind like us Americans.
He failed to mention it's not a 2020 chassis it's a 2019. He never showed the inside of the refrigerator but bragged about it. He never showed off the size of the shower by stepping inside. It was the please buy from me review. I'll give him a C+
