Spoke to R.M. @ Grech yesterday to start a long process. Despite the fact that they rely on dealers, he was exceptional;y helpful and made himself available for more questions. Grech RV exudes quality and customer service.

That’s a beautiful Class B. You guys are truly blessed to have been given such an amazing opportunity to use these RV’s. They are extremely expensive to purchase, so unfortunately, I’ll never be able to purchase one, so I’ll just enjoy watching you enjoy yours. My wife and I are retiring at the end of January, and we want to travel part-time around the country. I’d love to go full-time, but not my wife. She wanted to buy a Class B until I told her the cost, so appears we’ll probably start looking at newer used Class C’s. Something smaller she can feel comfortable driving as I have a bad back and can’t drive for more than an hour or so. I haven’t watched your videos for over a year now as my KZitem account was deleted and I couldn’t remember the name of your channel to resubscribe until a few weeks ago. Obviously, your channel should have been the first one I remembered, but for some reason I just couldn’t remember it, or several others, many of which I still can’t recall. As I remember, you had far less subscribers the last time I tuned in, so congratulations on the increase! Look forward to watching you guys again as I’ve always enjoyed your content.

Have you thought about buying a Class B and have one of the many companies do a build for you and design it the way you want? You have to be very careful though, there are so many companies that have inferior quality. Look for a Van Expo online and do some research looking at the various companies, paying close attention to detail. We’re so sorry to hear about your account. Don’t worry about forgetting, we forget what we just did 5 min ago. 😂 …but seriously 😢 lol We have also had numerous people email us saying that KZitem had unsubscribed them from our channel and they had to resubscribe. This has been happening for the last 3 plus years of the 5 years we have been on KZitem, so we can only imagine how many we have lost. We have been also noticing comments not showing up. KZitem sends us an email with comments made to our channel, except they only send a few and not every comment (which is very odd). So sometimes we see the comment in the email but it never shows up on KZitem, not even in the “Held For Review” folder.there’s no way for us to contact that person either. So as you can see, KZitem is doing some very strange things and they never once have been able to help. They always send pre-typed responses and when you provide “proof” with requested screenshots, they continue to keep asking for something else until they come up with something that is impossible for you to provide. Something very strange about that type of “business partner”. 🤔

@@LivinRVision You’re not the only channel I’ve heard having problems. It’s been going on for quite awhile with several folks out there. Not sure why KZitem is doing this given the money they make from content creators. They should focus more on the garbage out there and leave the more conservative, public friendly content creators alone. I guess it’s just the world we live in, everything is strange nowadays. Haven’t thought about having a van built. I might look into that with a highly reputable source. It likely would be a savings, but I’d probably really have to work for that savings by constantly looking over the build to ensure the design, quality, materials and parts are what I want and what I pay for. Thanks for the idea. Keep safe my friend!

Also it just looks more spacious inside. However they are like "hens teeth" to find, and have a 2 year wait list on a new build. We are anxious to get in one and see for ourselves.

Will definitely check out the Strada! Have a question, guess could go to the website, but rather ask you. Is the Sprinter either AWD or 4x4 ? If its a 2 wheel drive, and since you are full-time RV, How do you mange with just 2 wheel drive every vehicle ever owned has been 4 wheel drive or AWD, ( just an little example, you could pull the side of road, and easily get stuck, or mainly in bad weather etc.) I personally like to go down side roads ,dirt roads, or going up mountain road to someone’s house, all types of occasions. [snowy road] always felt safer having it. Please share your thought with me on how you have handled this please. I like the Mercedes Sprinter vs the Ford. Also want a diesel. Again, thank you for your informative video, would have never known.(or found out the hard way).

They come either 2 or AWD. For us we are testing these units but if we were to purchase one, we would have to consider the pros and cons of 2 or AWD and our way of traveling. In the last 5 years full time, we have not once needed AWD. Weigh your options. Is it worth the extra $ including the slight fuel economy loss? If you do a lot of off road, you may want the AWD, but you also have to ask yourself, where all could I actually go with the van off road with its ground clearance etc? If we traveled in colder climates it could come in handy, but it just hasn’t shown to be worth it to us so far.

We can definitely understand! Unfortunately with a Class B, you have to pay quite a bit for overall quality. We remember when we were shocked when we first seen the prices. Then, we started looking at the prices of the comparable Airstream Interstate and noticed how similarly priced they were and how much better the Strada-ion was in many ways. If money wasn’t a factor for us too, the Strada-ion would definitely be our choice. We just share our experience and hope it helps someone. What hurts worse is when you spend a lot on something and then have to frequently take it in for repairs or frequently repairing something yourself. RVs are not cheap for what you get that’s for sure.

New to Van Live but not new to camping. I’ve had a travel trailer and currently own a 5th Wheel. I’m thinking of changing over to a van. My concern is having one vehicle and if that vehicle is hooked up to a camp site and I wanted to go somewhere having to unhook everything. That would be a pain. My current thinking is if I had enough solar and a genny I would never have to hook up to shore power. I could fill the fresh water tank and not have to connect the water hose that often. If I only hooked up the sewer dump when needed, or had a cassette toilet that would alleviate connecting to sewer. Is my thinking all wrong or what?
@LivinRVision
7 ай бұрын
It depends on the van you have and if you like to set up a lot of things outside at a campsite. We’ve demonstrated a few times how easy it is for us with this current van. 1,260 amp hours of lithium enables us to boondocking much easier than even with a generator. Also, since we work all week, we never set things outside. We have quick connects on our water hose and the power cord is the only other thing we have to disconnect. Our sewer hose on this particular van is on an electric reel. We only pull it out when we empty tanks. We can tear down and set up in less than 5 minutes. So quick and simple. 2 years now and the benefits have outweighed the cons by far.

If you had motor problem, would it be a problem to find a dealer for the repairs? People around me are opting for a Ford rv for that reason. Thanks for the always interesting content.

We have not had to take it to Mercedes but have heard it wouldn’t be a problem.

We don’t live in Minnesota and never have. We sold our home in Iowa over 5 years ago and d have traveled full-time ever since. Started with a Class A for 2 years, Airstream Classic for 1 year and we’ve been testing these van for over 2 years now.

How do you clean the solar panels? I can't remember a ladder or path to the roof.

Truck wash. Always make sure they do not use any harsh chemicals. If this was our long term unit (and was ours), I would have to convince Michelle to get rid of some clothes so that we had room for a ladder. 😂😜

Hi, I recently bought a 2023 Terrino ion 4 wheel drive. I averaged about 12 mpg on a 1400 mile trip mostly at 70 mph. I believe the mud and snow tires that came with it are the biggest reason for the poor mileage. What mileage were you getting on your older one with the 6 cylinder non 4 wheel drive? I am trying to figure out if switching tires to all season will be worth the cost. Also the noise and ride from these tires are annoying. Thanks Kent

Hello - the 6cyl avg around 15 and the 4 cyl around 19-20 in similar conditions. We have actually talked about this in a few videos. Sorry we don’t recall which ones.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like I will not gain enough mpg to be worth the expense. Thanks for your vid’s !

You didn’t mention biodiesel. I understand that the new Sprinter engine can use biodiesel.
