It’s very nice as to be expected; it’s an Airstream. However, in this class/size motorhome, Leisure Travel Vans leads the way. They offer many different floor plans and much more interior and exterior storage within the same footprint. I know it’s probably apples and oranges in terms of materials used but as far as functionality goes, LTV is the gold standard. IMO.
Yeah I have to say, to be honest, that I was truly surprised at how much less interior space they had set this one up with than they have over at Leisure Travel. Leisure Travel they've got it set up where you have two legitimate living spaces in the interior, and it really works.
Very True! The one plus for Airstream is that this is available in a shorter 19’ 4x4 version. That’s a heck of a plus for those that want to camp AWAY from people. 😎
29 minutes in is when he finally begins to show the interior. If he’s the VP of sales, he needs to fundamentally rethink how to demonstrate a RV. When a potential customer goes into a showroom, the very first thing that they want to experience is the interior…… How does he not understand this?
I know for a fact you don’t use every inch, especially with the kitchen cabinets. Might I suggest, induction stove, diesel water heater and room heater, in floor heating, incinerating toilet, solar system with long term battery backup, I agree there is a ton of options that would greatly increase the practical aspects of this unit and make it a TRUE airstream, a class above the rest!
Ultimately it’s about personal choice. I’m crazy for this Airstream Atlas. My husband and I prefer the Murphy bed in front with the tv in front. But there is a lot to be said for the LTV Unity.
I lived in an Airstream 72 years ago. It was fantastic but not as great as this. My compliments. Let me know if you have a contest. I would be “on it”.
Vielen Dank für die perfekte Vorstellung des Airstream, was Ihr baut ist Kult und findet keinen echten Vergleich zu anderen Herstellern. Ich liebe Airstream.
Well built. I like the Murphy bed. I just cannot get past the dull colorless interior of an Airstream. I need a color palette of some type. Don't want to camp in a tin can.
I love it but one thing that no one offers is is ventilated driver and passenger seats with the leather option! That make a big difference when your on a long drive in the summer.
This rino sprayed , front and rear bull bars , wrench , roof rack … lifted suspension with beeefy tires , hydrolic roof system with canvas , and a cassette toilet , solar , and desalination/ water purification travel system for dry docking … this will be an ultimate camper van
Those steps are cool, but would be really annoying when your packing/unloading/cooking outside. Is there a way to close the door without them going in?
I've looked at both and LTV has some really interesting and functional floor plans. If you dig into the materials used, however, Airstream wins hands down. Obviously personal choice on styling and one has to determine if some of the automated features (blinds, TV, skylight, air suspension, etc.) are worth the extra dollars, but durability seems to tilt in favor of Airstream.
This is amazing. and probably one of few I would spend money on that has the toilet so close to the kitchen. But that is only because the entire bathroom is not a wet bath. Great design overall.
What a great vehicle, for a holiday. Did you ever think about making a bigger (longer) one which could become a (second) house? One which has a normal bedroom instead of the Murphy bed, or maybe both for guests. It looks amazing, the quality is great, the colors are wonderful, it all just comes together. Well done.
Finally, a Class B with dry shower, a murphy bed allowing a coach. Too bad you lost the work table behind the drivers seat. that was a good component that I will miss.
Hi Michael, there's a removal base mount and table leg/table top that can be installed right behind the driver's seat on the Atlas to use as a workspace.
Love the storage on the slide out, but then you block it with the door. They need to open up further or go side to side. For that much $ & @ my age I am not duck waddling under there to get @ stuff.
I wish that this showed the view looking from the cab to the bathroom. The camera kept almost showing it; as an example, I don’t know if the “pantry” goes all the way to the floor. I’d also like to see how much room there is with the slide retracted. Also, may I ask what kind of toilet this has? Unless I skipped over it, there was no mention as to what material the toilet is made from, nor whether it’s a cassette, macerator, or something else. I suppose that calling a dealer is in order, but I prefer to research before doing that because I don’t want to waste a dealer’s time if it’s not what I’m looking for. Thanks
Is there a way to set the steps to be out always? I know if I’m out of the van but need to get in to pee, I would ne annoyed with having to wait a few extra seconds for it to fold out. Lol.
Had one of the 1st made. My parents had a heck of a time getting in and out. It’s a steep climb getting in and a sharp drop down to the outside steps.. One thing is it’s very closed as far as windows are concerned I hope they love to spend as much time as possible outside…we had a week one trip that was constant rain or very humid weather outside. After a week it was a bit claustrophobic to say the least.. One of the things he tied about was the outside doors to storage. Hope they don’t mind laying down to get to things …it’s lovely in a rainy, muddy mess ground when setting up or leaving. Find set of tables for dining as it doesn’t really have dining area. Watch how much u run the AC. If it’s humid it can “rain” inside …. The outside awning come straight out not much shade in afternoons. He mentioned the air ride rear suspension….it a case f the tail wags the dog. Really unnerving trying to drive straight as it loves to wonder in the lanes as it over corrects …good luck
Nice, but I would think that a floorplan optuon with another bed (perhaps, over the cab) could have been offered. If it seats 4, it should sleep 4. Many of us do have families.
Love this camper, outside storage doors need to be raised up higher. When disabled you can't get to. The convention even needs to be down low and that way you could have a larger fridge. Overall love the Atlas.
Well, since the guy did say he had back problems, he probably didn’t want to bend down to open it…. Although he did pop open all the draws across the way.
The latest upgrade includes the optional E1 Package upgrade. This provides ten times the battery power and a diesel-fired hydronic heating and hot water system. Read more about the update here: www.airstream.com/blog/upgraded-power-performance-and-travel-freedom-with-the-e1-package/
Love airstream quality and style. I could tolerate the high price for that. I winced three places that I would hit my head (drive area overhead, bath entrance, shower entrance). I also refuse to go on my knees for every single compartment cover. Is your lead designer 5'4"? Please make the roof higher as well, it is a bit cramped.
The only thing I think they should change is how the access to the under storage..lifting up and then trying to reach in very hard, perhaps a swing up door!! Because of my lower back injury I can't kneel down and under that door.. other than that...bravo beautiful!!!
What happens is someone is taking a shower and someone else reaches in and locks the travel lock on the shower and just walks away? I mean just doesn't end the joke (Or isn't joking and is just mean) and the person is just stuck there? Is there a way to disengage the lock from the inside or do you have to break your nice expensive shower door?
How does a heated windshield heat your backup? Is he laying on the front of the window? I keep replaying this and he's talking about the heated windshield for his back.. I'm confused
It looks nice. I'm surprised you didn't use vertical-lift exterior storage doors instead of the swing-ups. The latter force you to duck even more uncomfortably if you have back problems.
Very nice premium coach. One thing I do not like is how many things are operated on electric motors. It makes me question how long those will last, because spending this kind of money on this premium of a product, you want it to last for a long time. Also, the murphy bed operation looks like a chore, having to wait for the couch to go flat, and then it's awkward how you pull down the bed itself. That's a huge minus for an otherwise beautiful coach. I do really like the hidden handles on the compartments and the fact they can be unlocked with the fob, nice touch. The transparent hose for the macerator pump is also an excellent addition. Overall very nice but I think maybe some parts of it are a bit *too* premium, so makes it tough to justify spending more when you might end up with a worse product down the road.
Hei lager dere utleie brakker till byggeindustrien spisebrakker med toalett også lager dere slike ting dere kann leie ut og kontor brakke rullbar si du driver på ett lite sted så trenger du ett lite kontor romm til formann bas og så spisebrakker til arbeiderne skiftemuligheter lager dere slike ting?
.. and while we're at it... how about some outdoor kitchen options!. The Aussie's have this nailed. Their pullout kitchens are amazing. You need to make that happen. We like to cook and entertain outside. Put the damn generator on the drivers side of the coach and give us a kitchen outside. No need for a microwave, just a couple burners and a wash sink would be great. A grill would be a home run. But you guys are the top of the pile... time to own it for the next generation of RV owners.
It actually looks like the industry leading, Leisure Travel Van - Unity model, but not quite as nice and more expensive.….. Additionally, Airstream could have placed a flip-up counter top on sofa side (otherwise not much counter space)
As the guy said, you put an air mattress on the floor of the cab…. You might have to ask Airstream to pay a child psychiatrist to be on call for the duration of the trip.
👍 y si, deberían ser los vendedores los que aparecieran en este video hablando a detalle de esta unidad, para interesarte en el producto? con el me aburrí rápido y no termine de ver el video, x2 velocidad y saltar el video un poco mientras checo los comentarios 🤷 ahora recuerdo porque prefiero leisure travel vans ✌️
