- We are going to share with you a full tour of our new 2021 Thor Gemini 23TW Class B+ Motorhome. We searched and searched for the perfect RV for us and this one is it! This is the first motorhome with AWD on the Ford Transit chassis with EcoBoost. It is a class B+, which is technically a class c but without the overhead bunk. It gives us everything we need with a queen bed, a large dinette that makes into a bed for the boys, a nice kitchen and residential bath... not a wet bath!!!

Love this RV. Very functional for someone my age (76), and my two grandchildren. We could actually travel to Florida, Texas and thru the NC and WV mountains! A dream of mine is to travel without worrying about the cost of motel/hotel costs. Thanks for sharing this beautiful RV.
From NC mountains used to live in Florida and currently in Texas so Ironic
The Gemini 23 tw is awesome. I'm retired and not a camper (yet), but this video inspires me to think about purchasing an RV.
I really dislike skylights. When you get into heavy hail, it can break. The back quarter panels and trunk lid and both tail lights on my Nissan 370Z were destroyed by golf ball sized hail. As well as, all the windows in my large apartment complex that were facing north. Just something to think about, you might need to get some sort of cover for that skylight.
Right. Me 2
We notice all the fans and openings on most all rvs , roofs the more holes the more leaks you have . And most openings are lathered up with sealant around edges of the openings. which is bothersum to me .sky lights and all do leak. Nice rv video .great rv.love it. thanks for all the info on your new thor .
Adrian I bought my first RV in 2008 The salesman told me it’s hard to find your RV that fits your needs the first time out! He said that because we looked new but he also showed newer used. We bought new and 2 years later trade it for an A class which we had for 4-5 years we stayed in an awesome RV park for the last 3 years we had the RV which we sold. Then in about in about 2016 we bought an Navion Itasca New model! We love it, we use it for trips from Home to Hotel but it is fully capable of off Grid or Park! We got out of the RV ownership due to health issues that have been dealt with. My wife and I love being in it! A small one without a slide would be great as well! We go to Pigeon Forge Tn in ours and places like that without a parking problem! Good look! 🤠
this is by far the best video about RVs. For once, someone was smart enough to let everyone knows how much they paid for it. Unlike other videos, they blog about products and never mention how much they paid or it. I cant stand it. Thank you for being a smart bloggers.
Amen!!!!
I missed the price. How much did they pay?
Thanks.
I never heard anything about the price. I would have remembered THAT! Must have missed it somehow?? Doubt it..

That huge sunroof near the front adds so much to the interior of this RV! Makes it feel much more open and bright inside.
How are you doing 😊👋😊😊
I can count on one hand how many times I have commented on CZcams but I just really wanted to encourage you as this was the most thorough walk through RV tour I have watched. You did a very professional job; sharing facts and demonstrating details that are not normally done. As a potential, hopeful buyer this was extremely helpful. Thank you both very much! Well done!
Thank you so much for your feedback!
Finally! A person showing off their trailer or motor home who realizes they don’t need to open every single door and drawer to show you what they are.if I see 4 drawers, I have a pretty good idea what they look like. You don’t need to open and show me all four!
Haha yeah I always felt the same way as you on this. Never understood why they open everything….lol!
I am 71 and travel with my 60 lb. canine companion. I have had my 23TW for 7 months last summer I took it on a 6000 mile trip from KY out to OR. Next week I will be driving it out to Phoenix on a 3500 mile roundtrip adventure. I have absolutely loved the unit. I tow a Chevy Spark and have no difficulties. I do have the optional second soar panel but have not had the experience of using the unit while boondocking.
The only difficulty I have experienced it the ability of the Velcro discs to hold the curtain in place. The screws used to hold the Velcro discs in place do not hold. after 3 nights of use i had dislodged probably half of the discs and compromised the ability to hold the curtain in place. To correct this i bought an inexpensive block out curtain and used thumb toggles to hold the curtain in place. This works much better than the original construction.
I am extremely happy with my 23TW and would repeat the purchase without hesitation.
This looks perfect for me and my bubby - we're seniors who like to take short, local road trips.
How are you doing 😊😊👋
This rig is just perfect for us. We’re rookies also and I do believe this may just be what we’ve been looking for!
I love it as well for its simplicity as I would be a rookie myself.
I've seen millions of rv's and this would be my #1 choice!
Yes especially the pull up bed
You made a fantastic choice. I made a list of what I want in an RV and this fits about 99 per cent of the criteria! I will definitely be looking into this model. Thor seems to care a lot about quality component's and ease of living.
How are you doing 😊☺️☺️🙈
That's the Exact Size RV camper van we want (& will have)!😄
But, ...do you want its gas mileage. 🙂
I love this rig!!!! I never thought I’d want one. I was looking into a van build but this looks great!!!
4:06 "It does have a light, so it can be illuminated at night time"
You hit the nail right on the head. Great review!
I really love this rig! This was a great tour. Looking forward to seeing how everything holds up long term.
You guys are the cutest couple! Love the new RV! If I could afford it, I'd definitely get a Thor. Great quality. I'm a total wannabe... Just working & dreaming about someday becoming a full time RVer. Can't wait to see your new adventures.
So excited to see many adventures! I also have “not all who wander are lost” hanging on a compass necklace in my car 😎
Hello how are you doing 😊☺️
It is one of the best little RVs I've seen in a long time very well designed
That's a good amount of room for a small unit, and the lighter colors and closet door mirrors certainly add to the open feeling. I think that the leg supports for the bed should be hinged so that they can fold inward when the bed is up.
This is my favorite Thor ……. Thor just keeps getting better and better with design
I can't believe all the room you have, wow! I like the height of the toilet and the easy make bed. It has a lot of storage!
How are you doing 😊😊👋
Congrats nice to see Thor has improved. We had a Thor Hurricane 31 2004. Be sure to keep the roof clean and watch out for over hanging trees etc. safe traveling the USA.
I love your rig! The size is perfect! It is absolutely beautiful! I wish you guys all the best and hope you have many wonderful adventures with your new RV! Can't wait to see where you travels take you.
You both did a great job with this video! I am surprised to see how much room that unit has. Amazing
For additional training, I recommend you watch the Robin Williams RV movie.
Will do 😊
Oh, that’s hilarious!
The movie Paul is our goto RV movie
Oh thats a hilarious mobie
Yes but keep in mind that real campers are not like the jerks he encountered in the campgrounds. More like the full timers he raced with.
Congratulations! Very exciting. Cant wait to see your camping adventures.
I loved your in depth tour of your motor home. Congrats again on your purchase. I absolutely love it and am looking forward to your new adventures in it.
Nice! Fabulous well covered details. This is about as good as can get for such a well-rounded loaded with flexibility and storage in such a small rv.
How are you doing 😊👋
You folks are the first that I have seen that even mentioned a fire extinguisher, kudos to that.
Wow! Love your RV! It’s the perfect size! I’d never want a huge RV, this one is perfect. I hope you make tons of great memories in your travels with it! Great demonstration of all its perks. But I always love your vlogs!
What a beautiful couple. Thank you for taking the time for such a wonderful tour of your Gemini. Fantastic! Happy travels. 🏕
I've looked at many Van conversions and upgrades, this is far better than most, because its a pop out and not so large looking of an RV. The bonus are the large shower/bath, storage compartment and its look great. Was the air conditioner and fan quiet, did the water tank size meet your need; not city hook-up? So let us know where you go, gas mileage, maintenance, engine/mechanical problems you encountered, most shows on youtube do not talk about their vehicle failures or what parts to carry in case of emergencies. Travelers be pre-prepared for the unknown...Have fun! Thanks for sharing.
I love your RV my husband and i are looking for one and we are not sure what to get i think by looking at your tour we might have found the one we like. Thank you. Happy, safe travel.
This is my favorite of all rv’s I’ve seen so far
We love ours
Love your tour. To the point and so professional. Love your new TV. Have fun.
Very Nice RV,,, One of the better Quality Built I've see and great layout, with a Slide!? Awesome!
Love this RV! I have an older Jayco, sleeps 7. Now that the kids are grown, this would be perfect for me. I love the layout as well. Great choice.
Love yet another fabulous tour of your new baby! I especially love the bluezie music!!! Looking forward to following your many fun family adventures!
Hello how are you doing 😊☺️👋
Thank you, this is the perfect size for me.Camping is do much fun.Traveling is the best, an you have everything with you.Enjoy!!!!
I absolutely love this Gemini 23TW RV. I’m independent women and I would absolutely love travel around USA with this beautiful baby. Thank you guys for sharing your video.👍❤️🚍🇺🇸
It's even comfortable with the slide in , and the bathroom is easy to get to ! 😊👍💕💕💕
I LOVE your RV. I like the way you can get around the bed. We have a slide in truck camper and if I get up at night I have to crawl over my hubby and jump down from the cab over bed. The RV looks very comfy and high quality. Happy travels to you two.
This is my favorite little, yet spacious RV. I love it. Can't wait to see how you decorate it.
Omg !! This Rv is really big and beautiful too ! Everything looks amazing great job ! 😃😊
I like your natural, not overly edited presentation. Keep’m coming!
Love it 💗💗💗 I’m so happy for y’all ~ safe travels and happy camping
Hello how are you doing 😊😊
I am hearing this is the easiest motor available homes to drive. The AWD with roll stability and wind control really is great.
I like your rig. I miss ours. It's a free life, for the most part. Thanks for the video, and taking us along.
I watched this video several times liking the 23TW more each time. We picked up ours yesterday, exactly like this one! Can't wait to start tailgating and camping!
Enjoy your new RV!!
Hi from Nova Scotia Canada. I came across your channel during my quarantine period when I moved to this province last summer. You two rock!!! Stay safe!
Perfect Tour!!! Some people stick their cameras in small spaces thru out the Whole Tour & Never Step back...YOUR IS IMPECABLE!! AWESOME.. i can SEE Everything!! Your Tour Superceeds MOST I've Seen!! thankyou
The "Leather" seats in the cab are probably "Ultra Leather", which is a vinyl product. Sometimes they are labelled other names, but they are usually vinyl. During storage of the motorhome it's always a good idea to have window covers to protect the seats from the sun.
First time viewer. I really like the format and how well you two complement each other. Love this RV! It would be a perfect starter for us. Thank you for taking the time to put it together. This is the first video out of hundreds that somebody actually showed starting one of the burners on the stove.
Great looking rig...you'll love the memories you'll make..we love camping..
I've been camping for 60 years, since 4 months old! Our awesome parents took us to 49 states and all of Canada - all camping. We all made our own trips to Hawaii and haven't camped there.
I'm eagerly waiting for my husband to retire so we can hit the 🛣️. Enjoy every moment. Don't sweat the small stuff.
"Glamping"... ☺️ We have a 2020 Thor Chateau 24F, very similar floor plan, in Ohio "cold storage" in the back yard. Can't wait until April - the start of travel season for us! That is a very nice MH you have... Enjoy your travels!!
Very good video showing so much about the motorhome from the standpoint of someone who wants a usable, comfortable, and practical rig. Thank you! I will be interested in your assessment of the AWD feature, as well as the driveability. I will look for more of your videos.
Beautiful! Congratulations. I have been RVINg now for the past 4 years in our 32 feet Class C RV. We love it ! Good luck to you guys.If you ever need anything let us know. We will be happy to share with you all we know. Good luck and be safe on the road 🙂🇺🇸👍🏻. By the way we just found your channel.
Thanks so much 😊

Price'?
wiñabgo has 31 fót eltríc rv 🎉
It’s a really good size for you. We’ve been RVing for around 40 years. Had several vans, some homemade. 4 class C’s, several class A’s, and for us, the most fun we had was in our 2 Sprinter Vans. We went more places and covered more miles. It was the easiest to camp in and we really enjoyed life in the 2 Sprinters.
How new are the Sprinters? Are they Blutec turbodiesels? I've heard they cost $2000 plus per year to maintain at Benz dealerships that tend to be snotty and unfriendly. We rented a brand new Pleasureway Plateau unit and loved travelling in it but found it far too expensive and too small (I'm 6'4")
Loved this and you guys did a beautiful job showing it to us all. I just wish that it had a much comfy layout for the kiddos to sleep.
Great tour guys.....BTW you can run the microwave when going down the road.... just have to have the generator running while your using it also if you want to run the AC for the back pasengers you need the generator running. We do it all the time... lol
Very nice! Plenty of room and you guys got a handle on it's layout. Wish you the best on your adventures. Fun, fun, fun!
I love this vlog. I’ve watched it (and the one where you picked it up) several times. I was super excited right a long with you guys. Sad when you sold it. You guys searching for RV’s is how I found your channel! Been a fan ever since!
I wish they’d paint these RV’s just one color. Be safe out there.🤙🏽
Yes the industry is soo dated! Need to change that look.
@@posti4posti436 Yes!
Thanks. Amazing video. It makes me excited to think about getting in to RV-ing. Amazing job showing everything about the rv.
I like this RV the most. I really am looking to possibly get something like this.
Yes I would love to have rv that size!!! Perfect small compact RV!! I'll just hook up kayak trailer and travel the States and fish all the lakes in my kayak, and enjoy camping!!!!!
Great tour! I have been looking for a smaller Class C and I am inspired! I have a 40 ft 5thwheel now and as i get older, i want things more simple but still want to travel!! Thanks for the good job!!

Oh I just love this! All those cabinets, storage spaces! Love Everything, the cabinet colors, Sleeps 4, the cute
'Full Bath'- I'm with u, 3 cabinets- COOL!About to look up the length and price! Oh and the exterior color has my Blue, I LOVE Blue! Only thing, I would choose a '2 Door Fridge'- 'Must Have' to keep food I've made to pop into the microwave, heat and eat. Hope that's an option! Love that it's a Convection Microwave Oven too! ..You all have certainly reached my expectations and beyond, too numerous plusses to comment upon! ♥️
This is a great RV choice.
A bit expensive. I would rather buy an rv slightly used...up to 10 years, relatively low mileage and, very importantly, one owner that took care of it
Spacious and well-finished.
Personally, I'd like deeper storage with less rows of drawers, to store large bags or items.
Also, I'd like a bigger sink in toilet
What an awesome couple. Beautiful RV. Wish them years of happy enjoyment in it.
Hello Mr. Burke.
Welcome to the power of the spoken word. ➿💡🔊
This is the absolutely the best I’ve seen, I love the shower is separate & all the storage. I love that you also have a tv in the bedroom also...I just love it
Thank you glad you liked. It’s a cool little rig so far!
Been looking for an RV and this seems to be the best one yet.
Love it.
Nice motorhome if they still had the Diesel option with the latest safety features I would buy one!
Friends of ours have one of the last diesel models made and get up to 16.9 mpg, their generator is also diesel I believe. They gave us a run down on this RV. There have been some issues with Ford’s baby diesel according to our friends. I don’t think either model tows 5K like he says in this video (unless the 2021/2022 got a beefed up chassis, it’s more like 1500-2000, like 200 hitch weight and there’s not much CCC either, it’s easy to overload. It’s very nice to look at but not as practical for full time living for many who need to take more with them. They said It looks “ginger bread” but cheaply made but Thor is known for this. I personally love the way it looks!
Your RV us so awesome for it's size, it's perfect for a couple to live and travel comfortably! Thanks for sharing a lovely video 📹 😊👍💕💕💕
Congrats! Definitely one of my favorite rigs in this class/size. I hope to buy a used one in a few years. I'm glad to see the Ford Transit chassis become more popular. I would never deal with the Mercedes Sprinters. Safe and happy travels!
I’d love to have this rig! We just bought a Grand Design 22RBE TT and pick it up in 2 days. We downsized from a 35 ft 5ver so that we could travel now that we are young retirees!! Enjoy
I love it! Great video! I am interested to know what this bad boy goes for out the door. I have been contemplating a mini school bus conversion, but also love the idea of getting a small RV that is ready to go.
How are you doing 😊😊👋👋
The bathroom is the best for me coz I'm claustrophobic. It's spacious enough like a tiny apartment bathroom 😊👍have a blessed and safe travels🙏
It's a beautiful rig and I hope you guys enjoy your travels!
I've been following your channel for almost a year, but focused on the cruise vlogs...I'm so excited that I came across this video and get to see these RV vlogs!!! Never too late to the party lol sort of..🥴
Love it, nice size RV. I can’t wait to see your trips!
How are you doing 😊😊👋👋
I would love this for my sister and I. We want to travel around the US 🇺🇸 and visit all the contiguous States. Your tour was extremely well done and very informative. Happy travels.
Really nice units! I’ve been looking at the 23TE which has the Murphy bed. One of the comments mentioned the Robin Williams movie RV. That is one of my favorite movies and I never laughed so hard when Robin is on the front of the RV hanging on the windshield wipers! I hope you enjoy it, the movie and your RV. Look forward to more videos!
Could you tell me the prices you’ve come across while researching the coach?
@@barryking5993 From 77,000 to 83,000 depending on the area. I’ve looked at RVtrader.com and GeneralRv.com etc. Of course you can always offer 20% or so less.
@@karenbarnaby80 thank you
Where are you from if i may ask?
Thank you for the tour. Your RV looks like it has everything ! It looks like the perfect size. I want one ! 😆 May God Bless you and keep you safe out on the road ! 🙏❤😃
Wow! Its Beautiful!❤❤ Enjoy!
I enjoyed your very detailed and thorough walk around/through your RV. I’m very impressed with the Gemini.
I'm following you guys real close!! This will be my first choice!! Thanks for your channel 👍
Where are newbies to just starting to research what to buy. And we love your rig. I think it’s the perfect size for us. Let us know if you love it. Be safe and enjoy
Loved your set up video.
A dream I've had...to travel the US
This RV is perfect for me and my husband we need one to travel from CA to TN to see our daughter and my parents in NM. It’s just the right size. We are going to check into this RV and check out prices.
Thank you for the tour.
I enjoyed your van tour... yours is just what I want... enjoy your travels!!! Paulette
Nice rig. Thanks for sharing your home away from home.
It’s perfect I love it 😻 yay excited for you
Hello how are you doing 😊😊☺️☺️
Love it , except would be nice if there was a bathtub! Thank you for the great tour of your rig!
This RV is just perfect!
I love everything about this RV except there's no escape in case of an emergency if you're in your bed that's the only thing unless I missEd something
Very nice and love the size. Have fun making memories! 😊🌺
Just Subscribed .You guys are such a Cute Couple. Cant wait to view all your Videos and Enjoy the Journey with You two. Much Love from Georgia.
I would buy one to replace my TT, especially since it is 4 wheel drive. A couple of things for people who don't know: The AC will cool fine without being ducted in that small space but ducting makes it a good bit quieter. Also, the generator draws fuel from the same tank as the engine so make sure you have a full tank if you are going to use it, especially for air conditioning. I'd rather have manual controls for everything. If the control panel breaks, everything stops working.
We were told that the generator runs off the gas tank and it won’t even start if there is 1/4 or less of a tank.
@@EECCTravels Good to know. Keeps you from being stranded but no AC if the tank is too low which would be a problem here in the South in August.
Nice rv. It would suit our needs nicely. You both did a good job on the video.
