Hello everyone, welcome to my channel. Like so many others, my lifestyle changed due to the pandemic.
Before the pandemic, my families lives had become so hectic & busy that there never seemed to be a good time to travel anymore. Somewhere along the line we realized that our last vacation was in 2011. We decided that it was time we made some travel plans.
Then the pandemic hit! I no longer wanted to travel by plane or stay in a hotel. We decided that a bettter and safer alternative would be to travel in our own vehicle, one that we could also sleep in, cook our own meals in, vacation in. The rest is history!
However, the RV shopping process is not easy and required a lot of research. I want to share what I have learned along with my ongoing experiences and adventures through my channel which offers:
RV tours / walkthroughs
Camping destinations
Hiking
RV modifications & DIYs
RV Cooking
And much more…..
So I invite you to come along with me on this ongoing RV journey.

Hi Ruby! Another great video. When you first stepped in I noticed the two seats behind the cockpit and thought another dang wet bath, but was smiling from ear to ear with the innovation of how Winnebago did the bath, great job Winnebago! Just wish it was on a F450 chassis with the 7.3 Godzilla engine for towing. But really do like all the storage inside and out and the twin beds. Thank you!

Hi Ruby, Great tour as always. Ended up totaling out my Tranquility and picking up a slightly used 2022 Ekko. While there are a few things I miss about the Sprinter, pretty much everything else about the Ekko far exceeds the Tranquility. The bathroom, 50 gallon water capacity , Transit has more power, entry door is awesome, and I have the tailgate feature that includes a stove and refrigerator freezer. Built in generator fuel is supplied by the Transit gas tank and is extremely quiet. This rig is not for everyone, but definitely works for me. Thanks RS

Hello Ray, so sorry to hear about your Tranquility! I hope you are alright. Congratulations on your purchase!

I love that this one was in plain white. The EKKO is my favorite RV now for utility. My favorite RV for style is the LTV Wonder RTB but the LTV has a black tank, a small fresh water tank, permanent propane tank and unheated uninsulated bays. Even when you don't plan to camp in cold areas you can still end up crossing a mountain range and find yourself in snow so the EKKO still wins. Like another commenter said those passenger seats could be so much better. There's an EKKO owner here on RU-vid who has changed that into a dinette with a much larger table to work on. If they're not going to do a dinette, cushier seats would be nice, the seat bottoms and arm rests are hard, long rides and long working/editing sessions will be ouchy. It's still my favorite and thanks for showing the spare tire! Oh yes, if anyone hasn't seen it, the EKKO has a boss complete outdoor kitchen option with sink, fridge and stove!

Hello Amira, Thanks for the comment. I agree and think the Ekko is a great RV for those who think that a van is just too small. I like that it is built for colder climate, has AWD, and the engine is strong. Thanks for watching!

As a cyclist (gravel and mountain), the gear-garage has huge appeal. Overall, I think it's the best production RV currently available to the adventurer, though wish there was an option to something besides the 2 passenger seats. The other version which was announced in the beginning was different and I think had a slide, which would have opened up that small space a lot more.....maybe next year, though I'm leaning towards a Transit 250 van-build

Just intended as friendly help. The “system for towing” on the dash is actually called an integrated “Brake Controller”. The panels in the rear heated storage are called “Molle panels” (maul aye or maul ee are two pronunciations) This is an interesting optional and the rear twin beds are nice for when a buddy comes along vs my wife!!

Total game-changer in the RV industry. Winnebago knocked it out of the park. Some early QC issues and mild design flaws that have largely been worked out. First true all-season class C since the Triple E Regency GT was discontinued in 2013 and this one has AWD. Looking forward to seeing how the competition responds. So far crickets apart from feeble efforts from Coachman. Mercedes has an AWD cutaway coming in 2023, so we may see an Ekko-fighter on that platform. Cassette toilet is genius. Use whatever toilet paper you want!😅

agree.. heavy insulation, 4 season operation, mostly automatic, my 2023 is so fun.. I have the 2 battery setup. so I dont have a generator.. we will see in time how that works out vs gen.. I looked at everything I could find prior to pulling the trigger on the EKKO.. one thing is that the EKKO can tow with a class 3 hitch and has built in controller too. IT pulls my cargo toy trailer great with the 1 ton chassis, and 3.5 twin turbo 10 speed. so far Im pretty impressed.. nice job Ruby..

This is really a nice rig, but at over $200k (checked a website last week) I have to ask how many folks in this day and age can afford one? Perhaps if someone is a full timer but otherwise this is for a very small market. We RV (pull a nucamp 400 BDL) about 7 months out of the year and as I approach 70, I have begun to think a small self-drive would be a good change. The EKKO has just about everything we would want - all wheel drive, shower/toilet (my wife would have liked a dry bath, our 400 has a wet bath), the twin beds (easier to make and move around at night for those late night bathroom calls), solar with lithium (haven’t seen how long or if the batteries will run the A/C) plenty of storage, hitch rated to carry two 60lb e-bikes, room for our Australian Sheppard and a well laid out driver/passenger compartment. There are plenty of 110/DC outlets, nice stand between the beds for a CPAP, controls in the interior appeared simple, and the ECO V6 is a reliable motor (there have been some discussion on forums the engine is difficult to work on and the turbo has problems in the F-150 truck line) it has sufficient power and torque to move you down the road at a respectful speed with some fuel economy. Again, the rig is very nice but heck it’s move expensive then some Class A rigs.

They should have to ports in a different location or have the door swing with the hinges toward the front of the vehicle.

Only 1600lbs of payload? That’s about the same as a Honda Ridgeline. How do you fill your tanks, carry all your stuff, tow a trailer, and account for the weight of passengers without exceeding the payload rating?

Hello John, I agree that you do need to be cautious when loading up the RV as it is important to not surpass the OCCC. Comparatively speaking, 1600lbs is not too bad. Thanks for Watching!

The battery watt on Ekko is 320 Amp x 12V = 3,840W. An aircon roughly is 1500W. So Ekko's battery supports about two hours of aircon. Jayco Terrian's battery is 210Amp x 48V = 10,080W. The Jayco's battery can support a 1,500W aircon for at least six hours. Also, Jayco Terrian uses a 48-volt battery, vs. Ekko uses a 12-volt. Ekko needs four times longer than Terrian to charge the battery.

Is the cost of campgrounds just as much as hotels now?????

I tend to stay at state and national campgrounds which are priced very reasonably however privately owned campgrounds tend to be pricier. I remember paying about $200 a night for an ocean site in Key West last year. Thanks for watching!

Good features and layout but I balk at Winnebago prices. $195k and it is a Ford chassis. US RVs seem to always have the tacky light wood formica cabinetry. Is it really that hard to put in something like real pine? Honestly that alone is worth several thousand dollars to me and completely transforms the feel of the inside.

@Adventure-Mom Год назад
Hello Vulcan, Yes the MSRP is high but most sales prices are closer to $150k mark. I do agree and would welcome some real wood cabinets. Thanks for Watching!

Very sad that an off grid RV with all that solar it doesn't have an induction cooktop or a convection oven... 90% of the Class B Vans comes with a convection oven very sad that Winnebago missed the mark on that...

Why don’t they make these rvs more like the ones in Europe? They are so much more efficient with space, set up, quality, maneuverability, etc. For some reason the US has not caught on to the fact people want this! Ours are HUGE and inefficient. Maybe one day.

frnakly I hate it when t hey say it sleeps 4. when you look inside sure it does if you like sleeping like sardines in a can, when they say 4 the mean two adults and two very small kids maybe? nah it sleeps 2, why not just be honest about it? I am concerned about the waterproofing on top looks like htey just sprayed the sealant haphazardly. wont last long no? I would love a camper van or camper period where you dont have to deal with leaks and constant maintaince on the roof to prevent leakage. that is why Ikind of like the fiber glass or air stream and scamps.

At least this one doesn't have the UGLY RV swirls! But I think part of why so many people want to custom build is because most of the RVs are really ugly/boring. And when I lookup RV custom paint, it's all people painting them with the ugly swirls.
