*BY THE WAY!!*
I MADE A MISTAKE ANSWERING SOME COMMENTS - For some reason I thought Mor/Ryde suspension added after this was recorded. *IT WAS NOT!!* Alliance never even suggested it. I simply got mixed up and that’s purely an error on my part! Sorry everyone
Tank Heaters standard
And I accidentally posted the specs for the 281BH later in the video. Specs at the start are correct. Sorry!!
Very nice overall. Loves: slide trays in the storage cupboard, bathroom counters, u-dinette and outdoor griddle placement. Not so much: miss Alliance's great usual decor design; kinda boring, pedestal table; a slide top table would be more versatile and for the love of Mike... Put in a door window shade.
Happy to hear about these upgrades too!
A refrigerator/freezer closer to the floor would be nice. My husband and I lived in our RV for seven months with the fridge/freezer same as this RV being reviewed. Firsthand lesson how inconvenient for short people these higher fridges can be.
Don't like the u dinnet , wish it had a table and chairs. Tv should be lowered. And sofa option.
@@niknikc27 had to update this. I was wrong on the suspension. I just totally got that wrong
It kills me that more manufacturers don't create a space for a mop/broom and a vacuum with a power outlet that is out of sight.
A utility closet would be wonderful
Men make them, not everyone just camps in their trailer. I store mine in bathroom but it’s a pain for sure.
This would be an awesome addition!
@@annejohnson4104 😂😂 nailed it
@Anne Johnson I always knock them over in the bathroom, or at the very least have to move them out of the shower or whatever. I just want somewhere I can put them that's out of the way! Men are less likely to keep the trailer clean daily at camp, but really, to keep everything from being completely filthy, you need to sweep at least once a day.
I don't mind giving up a little bathroom space or whatever to have an intentional spot for a broom that I'm not going to constantly have to trip over. It's like having dedicated trash can space that's tucked away or an out of the way spot for dog water, it's so nice when it exists!
I've mentioned this before in other RV's, make the dinette tables free standing so they can be used in different locations. Allow for using the dinette as a sectional of sorts with the table out of the way.
I am a fan of that as well
Yes, please make it a free-standing table!
I have a freestanding table and always wish it was fixed 😂
I think you can change the legs. But I do like that idea.
I really like it,but I agree they should make the bigger vent fans standard, as well as offering a fireplace option for those that would like the fireplace. They should also add struts for the overhead cabinets, I really would also like to see the flip up counter be flush with the counter top I can't understand why RV manufacturers don't do that it drives me nuts it's not that hard. Solar and inverter with lithium battery upgrade options would also be nice, but I am so glad they finally came out with a travel trailer and the 50 amp and two air conditioners being standard is great,.. overall with just a few small tweets they did a great job. Thanks to Alliance for letting you come and make a video on this prototype I've been waiting for it ever since I heard earlier this year that they were coming out with a travel trailer, thanks Josh for all you do to bring us these reviews, you are by far my favorite reviewer of RVs, because of your honesty and your off-color humor, please keep doing what you do.
Yes, fireplace is a must. Also agree strongly about vent fans.
Ty so much!
I totally agree with this reviewer. Definitely need max fans and fireplace. I LOVE the bathroom storage, sink, placement of toilet. We have another couple stay with us, so I'd like to see a 2 bench dinette for playing cards. Also, a hide a bed sofa would be great for guests. We would also fold it out and snuggle by the fireplace and watch a movie! Thanks Josh! I love watching your videos. You crack me up! Lol 😂 We currently have a pop-up camper. We haven't found the perfect camper yet. This one really has potential with some tweaks.
Only one vent now….in the bathroom. So high, I can barely open it with fingertips, my wife can’t.
Definitely need struts on upper cabinets. Wish the bathroom had a 48" shower instead of the open storage and yes, room for a trash can under the sink instead of the shelf. Love the placement of light switches and the outlets in kitchen. (I've added outlets to every camper I had as the ones in the upper cabinets are awful!) Would love to see a slightly shorter version with just a couch/theater seats (no dinette) and twin beds in the front. And yes, the usb ports on the inside of the theatre seats are useless. Lastly, no camper other than the most basic/cheap entry level units should have the crappy small vent fans!
Ty David
Josh, you do some of the best walk-throughs I have ever seen. I watch CZcams because I am looking for an RV soon and I learn more from your videos than anyone else. Thank you. You are making it easier to search for what I am looking for. I also loved your manufacture walk through with Brinkley and Alliance. I hope you do more soon. Even my husband couldn't stop watching you and your walkthrough with Alliance and he never sits through videos like this. I look forward to more info from you and as I said, thank you.
Is there a factory you’d like me to walk thru?
Am I the only one that immediately walks away shaking my head at any unit with minimal camp side windiws?
No you’re definitely not
I like how all these companies know the RV Nerd and know he'll get the good, early info out for them. Cool unit for sure, thanks for the pre-release look.
My pleasure!!
I like when new rigs come out that are trying to bring something new to the table by being creative, using quality construction while utilizing proven design with the focus being on making those designs their own and better. It's a direction I like to see all manufacturers going in North America, no matter what the product. For too long there has been a serious race to the bottom trying to offer the biggest and the most while the quality takes a back seat. We are starting to see the reputation of entire industries turn around as the focus switches to value based on quality and longevity instead of square footage and corners cut. I sure hope these folks have great success, because their goals seems to be towards developing and earning a great reputation, right out of the gate. The rest should sort itself out so long as expectations and efforts remain balanced and pricing is in line with trying to earn a reputation. This is a great model. All of those little things make a big difference in the end and I applaud the final product here! 👏👏👏
I'll be checking out their website soon.
Cheers!
Thank you for watching!
Great overview! And nice work Alliance! My big notes are - port on the roof for easy addition of satellite antennas, cell boosters, or whatever technology happens in the future. Outside switch for water pump, and some sort of electric heat. I don't really know what the benefit of a door in the bedroom is. I don't think I'd be overnight sleeping somewhere and have to go outside to come back in the other door to get tho the bathroom. I think it's great that they were able to make bathroom and kitchen full access happen with the slide in, and that's probably enough for 95% of people.
This is good stuff.. thank you!!
Nice job Grand Design for designing that floorplan
Yep!
2600RB!
That is what I thought too! We have a 2600rb and I still hate the lack of access to the bedroom with the slide closed. I do like this outdoor kitchen!
Grand design definitely made it popular but if we are going to really give credit to the original designer of a concept like this it would actually be back at the launch of the palomino saber before GD was even founded.
We will be watching live!
Awesome! The A-Team in the house!!
That 21' awning needs a center support.
I wish more companies would put the kitchen on the non camp side, it’s so nice to sit at the table and enjoy your camp sight.
It’s just a symptom of the layout
Not impossible but requires more extra length than people realize
I'd like to see Allliance do a optional "extended kitchen" where the dinette is. Maybe even add a optional combo washer/dryer in a "optional extended kitchen". I'd like to see a farmhouse sink in the "extended kitchen" with a tower of power. It would be nice to have real counter space with storage underneath. Keep the Theater Seating - just add a couple of Tray Tables you can fold down or push off to the side. Under the TV put in a fireplace, and under the fireplace keep it open for smaller dogs or even put a pet area where you can put food dishes/toys. Also do some sort of mop/broom storage. So many people are using these as residential trailers / tiny homes that having smarter options would really blow up the market.
Interesting idea…
@@JoshtheRVNerd Sadly, that's an out dated media cabinet, not a pantry. I think a true pantry for groceries/dry goods behind the tv area would make this hands down, THE best this floor plan has ever been done. And as @ozwomanid57 says....a fireplace!! 👍 These changes would be an absolute deal maker for us!!
Thank you for the walk through of the 262RB Alliiance Delta. We LOVE the wood in this trailer. Absolutely beautiful.
I, too, would like to see this is a shorter version with no dinette. There are just the 2 of us, so no dinette is needed. Given that it has the dinette, the U shape works well for 2 people. No need for it to be bigger.
Absolutely love the storage in the bathroom. I hate when manufacturers give you a large rear bathroom then take all the space with an outside kitchen.
This trailer definitely needs the XL full-size fart fan in the bathroom. Obviously, the designer has never camped with a bean lover.😊
hahaha I hear they're the musical fruit!
They could build it with a half booth and two chairs with a free standing table which we prefer. Up grade in fans is needed for sure. Struts on the cabinet doors would be nice. LOVE🥰 the hidden compartment by the bed and lockable would be cool. The wardrobe as shelves or hanging space in very nice. 💥 We like bigger bathrooms like this.👍
Ooh… frankentable idea is cool
Really like this travel trailer, it is very sharp. Just wondering if it can be made without the U dinette? I would personally rather have space inside than outside storage. The large front drop frame storage compartment area is plenty big. I love that they included a 6 foot picnic table. I would really appreciate a King Size Bed, is that a possibility? I really love the bathroom it is perfect. I love the storage under the TV and the utensil drawer. Love the soft close cabinets and drawers, but I do miss the fireplace. We love watching your videos Josh, and have been watching for over three years now. Thanks for making shopping for an RV so enjoyable.
The dinette may be changing to a more traditional setup.
No king possible the Joe but perhaps in the future
This is a perfect camper perfect storage. Door away from the bedroom. Love it❤
First:excellent camper!! Love almost everything! Love all the cabinets and drawers! I also agree with most of the comments that Josh made! Now here’s my 2 cents: please put in the bigger oven! And some kind of storage closet for broom, mop, stick vac would be nice. They could even get rid of the cubby holes beside the shower and put a broom closet there since the medicine cabinet is so big. A fireplace option would be nice but I love the pull out shelves! Put in struts, bigger fans, door shade, and a grab bar for the door would be great! And a strip of lights under the bathroom cabinet would be great. But overall, Alliance did a awesome job with this camper and can’t wait to see more! Thanks Josh for bringing us this sweet camper!!
They need to run this unit on Dexter torsion axle independent suspension if they want to compete with higher end units like Rockwood and Lance.
The 2022 Lance trailers we had looked at went to leaf springs but they did come standard with Moryde equalizers and shocks. Not sure if that was a temporary change due to parts availability or permanent. I don't know why Alliance didn't do something similar since their 5th wheels come standard with the Moryde equalizer and wet bolts.
I would love to hear from folks who have had both and what they feel about them
And full exterior laminate/Azdel
LOVE:
- slideaway utensils drawer
- trashcan storage
- window covers (hate the all around boxes)
- bathroom! Love the extra space around toliet and nice big shower.
- outside looks super slick
- love added table
- the outdoor slide switch!
- love large awning
Deal breaker for me:
- no entry closet
- u shapped dinette -- rather have l shaped lounge with removable table and change theater seats to a recliner. The exterior storage is not as much of a priority as usable interior space.
Thanks Josh for showing us! So very much appreciated!! Safe travels.
Thx for your highs and lows!
One of my favorite floorplans. It has reclining theater seats so I'm already happy! My must-have is about space a comfortable work space, a place where I can set up a robust computer with a mega-monitor to work. I have designs on a gypsy, digital-nomad, boondocking lifestyle so having a functional and comfortable work space is necessary. To that end, I would like the dinette space to be multi-use. The U-shape isn't terrible and has the advantage of being a good sized bed. I would like to see the table be able to slide back to be flush against either the back cushions or lay the cushions down and the table slide against the wall. That would allow a monitor and keyboard to be put on the table and create a little space for a decent office chair to slide in. The computer tower can be placed under the table or even on cushions on either side of the table. The tower might end up becoming a laptop, but the monitor and keyboard will still be necessary.
It also seems like there is plenty of room for about 800W of solar on the roof and 800ah worth of LiFePO4 batteries and all the components of a robust power management system. That is also critical for me.
Overall this is a rig I'm very interested in. Great start, Alliance!
🎉 for awning. Fantastic
"not a bone shattering original floor plan"...understatement of the year LOL! It's a carbon copy of the Grand Design Imagine 2600RB! Has a few upgrade features so might be interested in looking at a production model when they hit the market....thanks Josh for the review.
The layout definitely is the 2600 “reImagined” lol
But frankly even that imagine wasn’t the first with that layout. Saber did it years before GD was founded actually
Nice looking Rv inside and outside. Those Coleman Mach Q AC units are much quieter & worth the extra $$. Sadly, the "Road Mode" no bedroom access for overnight quick stops where you can't or shouldn't open slides is a huge detraction for this nice rig. If your mostly closer proximity camping vs. longer distance traveling it's less an issue. Thank you Josh for great Rv reviews showing pros/cons, few go into such detail as you that's why next Rv purchase will be thru Bish's!!
Ty Larry!!
Josh you are awesome! Love the videos, love the detail keep them coming. Thank you so much!
my pleasure. thank YOU for watching :)
Love the storage under the tv! Yes more pull out drawers! And the silverware hide n slide is fantastic!!!!
Thank you 😊
This is a nice unit. Really like a lot of the small "upgrades" like slide shelves under tv and grill setup. In Texas 50 amp service is standard if you ever wanna sell a good sized RV lol. Decor would be better if it's brighter. That vibe 30 foot Rk you did awhile back is my favorite and noone else has anything that bright. It makes everything feel bigger and happier
No kitchen booth, just table/chairs
There are so many great things about this. Love the pull out pantry and a place for trash. I would suggest removing the dinette and adding a desk/table to the wall, maybe one that could fold down. Bonus points for an outlet. 👏👏👏
Cool idea!!
Thanks for showing the slide in the closed position. Getting to the bedroom with the slide closed is not important to me, but getting to the fridge and more importantly the bathroom is a must while travelling. This floorplan is just perfect for the wife and I. A dinette and recliners in a model this small is great.
my pleasure! Glad it was helpful :)
they have done this floorplan - sweetly!!
😊
Yes indeed. Large storage and pantry. 😊
😊
Great video Josh, and wow, this one is hot off the press!! Can’t wait to see some pricing for the Alliance TT’s. And honestly the small vent fans are almost a deal killer for us. I know it sounds crazy, but it seems like it’s the first thing we look at that tells us if the manufacturer went the extra mile or not. That and the lack of the door window shade. Just something you can pass along to the big guys! Thanks for what you do!! We are big fans!!
I was speaking with the guy who's managing the development of these and he was really surprised at the reaction people had on the fans. I shared that I think when a brand like Grey Wolf in a stick and tin class is using big fans, then the "premium brands" are painted into a corner to follow suit
I think the fans can be replaced with Fantastic fans and the ones the blow out AND in are terrific for moving air! I have one over the bed and it's like a ceiling fan on the cool nights. And a door window shade could probably be installed AFTER market.
For the boondocking option, is love to remove the bedroom AC, duct the rear one to the bedroom. Have an Maxxair dome exhaust fan in the bathroom. Then have it prepped for solar to cover every bit of roof you can. I don't need the u-dinet outside storage. Make the tongue longer for ease of backing. Have a second slide out table under the bbq, for prep.
removing the 2nd air for a boondock package is an interesting idea...
Wow! Huge over the bathroom sink cabinet.Luv it ❤
Kudos to Alliance! Very nice unit! I love the pull out drawers in the entertainment unit. The bathroom storage is really nice. The fact that you can use the dinette as a lounge area is a good idea. The added picnic table is really nice. Everything in the outside storage area really nice. Very smart idea. Seriously though, I could go on and on with everything done with this unit. Good job Alliance. Alliance has really raised the bar. Josh, thank you for this great video 👍👏
I would like to see them put drawers in the inside storage of the dining seats. It makes that storage more accessible for us old folks. Are they going to make their travel trailer in sizes less than 25 feet long?
Thank you so much!
Toy hauler 12 V combination gas fridge. Do you know anywhere where you got redundancy it is awesome a generator like that one generator in the one you had that was gas dual gas inverted stereo definitely the climate for a season if you can color that I like those bubble windows just acrylics it’ll seem to work keeping it warmer definitely more definitely in four seasons, room NPPT solar panels, controller, battle, born batteries, heavy duty inverter, like Victron, or something like that. Have to be 6000 W where you can add on into your solar panels from a plug down below so you can plug in more plotter panels and definitely the back garage we can put your toy in the drop down seats and all that one tiedown. It was a bathroom back there. If you can make it a full bathroom, that would be awesome. Doesn’t have to be big just enough to rinse off in that’s just some of my ideas that I think is awesome refrigerators you know don’t have to be huge but I do like to duel and Dino room is nice just choices of dark maple lighter colors grays and even like log cabin look that’s enough I think lol thanks Josh. Sincerely RAY Stone.
Definitely like the fireplace
I thought I would add something there. Heck, that might be a good place for my dirty clothes so I don't have a clothes basket in the way. @@ilenehancock7595
Get rid of the cubbies behind the shower. Move the toilet over. And make the shower 36 by 36. That's my two cents. I simply love the rest of the bathroom. I personally don't need the bad access when the slides in. I can catch a few winks at lunch in the lazy boy.😂
The pecan wood tone is ok but picture those pieces glossy black to go with the black glass.😮😊❤❤
That outside access to the dinette would be lifechanging on any model! Assuming it doesn't leak ;)
Agree with cabinet struts too!
Ty Annette!
Struts are a must for the overhead cabinets, up grade on the solar and inverter would be great also!
👍🏻 ty
I love what they've done with this unit. Unbelievable storage for such a small space. So glad they put the outlets on the kitchen walls. If they're under the cabinets you have unsightly cords hanging down. Every kitchen NEEDS a side splash next to the cook top. The charging ports on the couch definitely need to be moved. Love that it's carpetless with the slide flooring matching and the hidden duct work. Why in tarnation they would use the dreaded 4" fart fans is beyond me. I would love to see drawers under the dinette space so the entire space is more easily accessible. The flip up kitchen counter extension needs to be flush. If they added a door to the bedroom it would hit all 3 criteria for those Cracker Barrel stops lol. I also appreciate that for extra emergency egress should the occasion unfortunately arise. The privacy shade in all doors should always be included and not "optional". The cabinets are beautiful and are smartly done. The outside has a nice, clean, sleek modern look. I know I've picked apart a lot but I really do like this one very much!
TY Angie!!
I like the TV location and cabinets under the TV
I like the layout and everything about it. For a couple it is perfect! Nice video
TY!
I've been waiting for them to get into the TT game. While not a floor plan that I would be interested in, I love what I am seeing in the fit and finish, furniture choices and color palate. In reference to the booth, I (only seeing the video for reference) like the fusion of bench size and u-dinette shape. This is a couples model and will typically have 2 people at the table, but also makes allowances for grandkids or others if need be. What I would change, is make it a free standing collapsible table that will make entry to the back of the U easier and give a tv tray style option for the theater seats. I really look forward to a Cougar 33RLI/ Imagine 2970 style floorplan!
Ty Will!!
Very well thought out and very well executed! I would trade the outside slide storage for a more functional dinette. Struts on the upper cabinets. Would rather have the larger oven and shrink the drawers a bit. The slide out shelves, slide out trash, and the drawer in drawer utensil tray are great features. Trash receptacle area in bath would be nice. I don’t care for the black, glossy door inserts…I’m a cabinet builder and I guess I’m more traditional? Plus I think they would be full of fingerprints after 5 minutes of exposure to my grandkids…lol. Thanks for the vid Josh…you rock. Even with my dislikes, I would still place this high on my possibilities list! Nice job Alliance!
TY Michael. A dislike vs. a dealbreaker is sometimes really important to know
I love so much about this!! No carpet, the simple window valances, bedroom nightstands, colors.
Move the water pump away from the electrical and solar charge controller. Isolate the water pump somewhere, so when it leaks, it doesn't ruin other components. Also consider using brass PEX fittings that don't leak.😊
Wow! Do love what the Alliance team delivers. Im impressed on the floor plan and the water tanks are amazing. Wall construction is really nice. Hey, first round - nailed it. One change for me, window in the front. We have one now and we love having it.
Is your front window a private bedroom like this one may I ask? Trying to nail down trends..
@@JoshtheRVNerd - yes it is. We have a 2019 Palomino Solaire 205S. Front bed with huge window.
Alliance did over all awesome job on a lot of deals with the unit. Especially storage, under the cabinet lighting, floor heat vents. I agree with most of Josh's assessment. However I would prefer front kitchen with side for the king bed. So far am going to stick with Rockwood 8200 series.
I like a table & chair over the booth for dining
Ty Jodi
Add door shade, struts on vertical doors. Full size fans. Side splash. Like low outlets.Doors on bathroom cabinets. Maybe just top and bottom with middle open. Love that the water pump is easily accessible.
Being in RV sales, my customers are definitely wanting a fireplace over storage. I absolutely love the look and storage though. It also being 50AMP with dual A/Cs is huge since I am in south Alabama and the more A/C units, the better!
I get a mix on fireplace vs storage and it could vary regionally for sure
But lately I’ve seen a push to storage
As a customer I do not care about a fake fireplace and would rather have the storage space. I will go outside and make a fire if needed.
@@JoshtheRVNerd for sure! love your videos. i havent been in the industry as long as you have, and I learned alot about particular units from your videos.
We would prefer storage over a fireplace. A small space heater takes up very little floor space and can be placed to provide the most heat across the length of the trailer. It is what we've used for cold weather camping since getting our first travel trailer. If we want to watch flames we will build a real fire outside.
As a customer, I 1000% want storage over fireplace.
Brown brown and more brown. A little different colors would be be nice. And small vent fans?
Seeing similar from other folks. Ty
I would turn the grill around facing the door so the flow from the door to grill is easier.
DEDICATED BEDROOM DOOR IS A MUST
Ty
Toss a 90 gallon fresh water tank on it for us boondockers
I PERSONALLY am tired of dark wood. Tired of the theater seats. Stop with ugly plastic sinks n faucets (including showers), how about hidden vaccums. How about giving nice upgrades like all the beautiful 5th wheels. It's so old the same floor plan in everrrry singleness trailer. Said with respect.
Love to ya Josh!!!!
No I get it. Ty Mary
1. I love the slide out grill.
2. 200 watts solar is nice, but an option for more is better. I’d go for an upgraded off-grid package with lithium batteries that would allow use of A/C.
3. Option for fold out sofa to replace recliners. Otherwise, this is a couple’s RV.
4. The fact that the TV is recessed prevent view from dining table/booth.
5. I agree about the top cabinet door above the TV should stay open.
6. I love the utensil drawer.
7. It appears that a bigger oven would fit. I’d like to see that.
8. I also like the trash can accommodation.
9. Having the back seating at the dining area, doesn’t do any good if the folks on the back can’t access the table comfortably. Storage is important, but so is seating at the dining table.
10. This may be a small thing, but I like a convenient toilet paper roll holder. I’m sure where they would put it, but I don’t care for loose rolls.
11. How sturdy are the awning struts? Maybe it’s the perspective, but they look a bit thin. I’m thinking about winds that suddenly kick up before you can close them.
12. With a few tweaks, this would be a good couples RV.
Larry from Texas
Ty Larry. Love the feedback
Awning struts are normal. I am not sure how else to describe them
I love the floor plan! But all the windows are on the wrong side. If they just somehow mirrored it to put the windows on the yard side rather than looking at the neighbors behind you, it'd be exceptional!
It’s not impossible but needs about 2ft more length since the entry door can’t flip
Biggest fail is that they didn’t go with a 100% exterior Azdel/laminate construction.
I’m not even hardly considering any RV that does not have this.
Second fail is a U-shaped dinette. Never understood why an RV would need to seat six when it can only sleep 2-4. They take up too much room.
Other than that, they look decently built. But can get the exact floor plan with yet another wood roof for cheaper.
Oh sure. You can get various third row SUVs some of which are cheaper than others as well. It's a case of considering the trim package and if it's worth it to you
And there's no one single answer to that. Varies for everybody
Plenty of room and accessible storage/garbage can for us ladies!! With out having to walk across the room!!!! YES!!!❤❤❤❤
Bigger vent fans are a must. The outside dinette storage I could do without. I'd rather have seating for at least four people at the dinette. Love the big bathroom sink. Our Grey Wolf has a big bathroom sink, vent fan and a large kitchen sink that's not divided. I wont even consider an RV if those three features are not in it. Plus we love the electric fireplace. We use a lot in the spring and fall. It saves on propane and works awesome. Overall that's a really nice trailer. I love how everything is located in the storage basement.
Yeah grey wolf RVs are _deceptively_ well equipped. They have the same or often more equipment compared to a laminated RV on a more affordable budget. I don't think it's a mistake they've maintained their popularity
Some type of electric heater built in would be nice. I have a fake fire place heater, and it gets used a lot. Also like the outlets. Dimmers on lights? And again make heaters, furnaces and etc. easy accessible. In like my Reflection.
I know Avenue has dimmer lights. Can’t remember in these.. not sure they do..
Nice unit, but would love to see a fireplace. It makes a big difference, just to knock out the chill on a crisp morning/evening. Also, it helps in the winter so you don't have to run through all the propane. I would sacrifice a shelf in the pantry to make room for a fireplace under that pantry cabinet.
Nice weekend or short vacation trailer. More storage in the Bedroom for clothes etc. Maybe a superslide to expand the Bedroom, and give more storage. I'm also glad to see no Fireplace for the weekend/vacation trailer.
It's absolutely beautiful for a couple camper. The one thing they can do is keep the price attractive and competitive so they don't deter newbies from considering it.
I like the colors they chose both inside and out.I would rather have a larger u dinette instead of the theater seat.then maybe with the leftover space put a moveable bench or a euro-recliner,something to that effect.
Awesome ty
Move the lower cabinet up above, and the TV and larger cabinet down. Perfect.

I think they nailed it . Keep the theatre seating , add the lift arms on the flip up doors .
👍🏻
I have to tell you, Josh . . . I really, really, like it! A lot! I believe Alliance has nailed it on this new travel trailer series. Some of the items you pointed out as potential improvements have merit, but overall, this trailer rocks! I'm sure small modifications will come in time with feedback. The interior offers a very functional, yet enjoyable floorplan. The bathroom is fantastic! I'd prefer the dual recliner option and I don't feel like the U-shaped dinette is too small. The exterior has everything I'd need, and then some! I love the exterior switches for the awning and slide . . . great concepts. The large awning is ideal and the pass through storage space is unbelievable. I'm waiting on pricing and will strongly consider this as a highly viable option. It's just my wife and I, so as a couples camper, it's way above board. Keep'em coming my friend . . . love your video's!!!
I agree. I have a few notes myself but who doesn’t. Overall it’s fantastic
This is the most tailored interior I’ve seen in quite some time. Attractive, reserved, and at least from what I can see in the video, well-built. Even the dinette cushions look high-quality. It looks like they worked hard to get this interior right.
Glad you like it!
Great 1st iteration at a TT!
Agreed that
*struts on upper cabinets a MUST,
* fans HAVE to be larger, at least bath fan, but both fans allowing cooler seasons to encourage less AC use and enjoy cool camp breezes.
* I prefer to lose enough cabinet above shoe catty for slim-line fireplace. When we bought our unit, FP was NOT on our pre-purchase bucket list, BUT we quickly grew to love it in fall and spring.
* With the behind TV pantry, I'd solve the 'too little campside window' dearth by eliminating the lower shelf of cabinet to the right of sink and installing a larger campside window'.
* Also, maybe a bottom-up blind on the very nice bathroom window to balance privacy and light/view.
Just thunkin' thru some experience.

Ty!
Bigger entertainment center.
I didn’t realize how much more I would literally hang in my 2022 Rockwood Roo 235S because of the 40” tv, stereo, fire place, perfect couch to be lazy.
Wow! I like it! The cabinet sliding drawers are great. I would like a two bench dinette without the back bench. Hubby and I prefer the trifold sofa. Cuddle room and the pets can cuddle with us too. Great storage all around. Yes on the garbage can storage under the sink in the bathroom. Maybe do a half shelf under the sink. We currently have a 28ft TT so the size is good for us. Would also like the upgraded fans.
I agree on that dinette. TY
Once again, great presentation. Thanks, Josh!
Thank you for watching!
Would have to keep that bathroom door shut. First line of sight is the toilet... great storage though! Bonus, no black sink in the bathroom. Whoever thought of that has never cleaned a bathroom. Water leaves white spots. Not to mention toothpaste. Outlets in the kitchen are perfect, and they're straight! One of my sale or no sale points is the trash can area under the sink. I brought this to your attention several years ago, and you answered me! Glad to see you look for it now!! As for the bed, having the outdoor storage, which is good, also makes it very difficult to make the bed. Any bed covering pretty much has to be made to measure. Impressed with the 2 a/c units. Outside, I really like the long awning. Love the outdoor grill instead of the outdoor kitchen, it takes up much less storage space inside. Overall 8 out of 10 for me.
8/10 isn’t bad!
I love the U shaped dinette, as is. It would be just myself & my husband, but would occasionally have a couple of others, with us. I love all of the storage.😊❤
Thanks for sharing!!
LIKE THAT RV MANUFACTURERS ARE FINALLY PUTTING THE CONTRL PANEL OUT OF REACH OF LITTLE ONES!
Luv the switch to be able to watch the slideout
LoVE the barn bathroom doors. Buckets!!!!! 😂 OMGoodness impressive all around. Probably way out my price range.
Buckets... I'm guessing I said something stupid at some point 🤷🏻♂️
King bed option and free standing dinette option would be awesome
👍🏻
The colors are nice. Windows are great!
Lower tv, replace pull-out drawers in entertainment center with fireplace. Regular dinette; table with legs instead of posts. Larger oven, backsplash for wall, cover for sink. Strut the overhead cabinets. Like the bedroom storage.
Ty Cathy for the feedback!!
Wow awesome I loved every thing on this one all it needs is bigger ceiling fans 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thx Carlos!!
Maybe have the option of a dining room table/chairs and get rid of the storage and u dinette. A king bed option would be FANTASTIC!
Several king requests. TY
My wife and I were Impressed with the new travel trailer, like the extra storage under the U Dinette. I think the U Dinette works for couples like my wife and I, we do not have a lot of other guests when we go camping. Also like the interior colors in the trailer . Would Be nice if they could put a door in the bedroom instead of a window on camp side so that you could have full travel access. Also like the idea of an extended off grid package with the features that you mentioned in the video. Definitely looking forward to seeing more floor plans in the new travel trailer line up.
Awesome ty!
Outdoor switches for slide out and awning brilliant
I know!
Love not having the boxes on the sides of the window. Metal framed window? If so, a few magnets will end that side light without taking out a shoulder (or the shoulder taking out the box!). The off grid package you described, dream come true!!
Ty
fireplace would be nice and table and chairs, also a laundry chute beside the bed
Layout and design is wonderful love the colors and very well matched and organized
Thanks so much!
We are Alliance Paradigm owners and we toured this camper ( and did a video on it as well). This camper is very well done...perfect for state park/national parks. There will be an option for autoleveling as well. Having a drop frame on a TT is unique I believe, as is the Hot/Cold water mis at EVERY spray port and the slide control outside and inside. Great Video...very thorough!!
Thank you for watching!
The table and chair option would be great. Have a bench seat on the window side, movable table a chair for the kitchen side. True couples camper, Most don't need to fit 4 people. Never have like fireplace options, so that is a win for me.
Fair points. Ty for the perspective
Closet slide and a free standing table and chairs. I would truly consider this one then. Really nice.
Table and chairs is available on these btw.
Rockwood's version might be an ideal fit for you: czcams.com/video/8tn_W9Jt9Vg/video.html
@@JoshtheRVNerd Thats the one I have always wanted..except I cook Alot and there is No counter space. 😬😞
I think having an option to omit the outside storage to allow for a free standing dinette or desk for those that need to work. Also the swing out tables that can attach to the sofa cup holders.
Personal storage stands are cool idea
Some feedback that comes to mind, I would want the bedroom to be customizable to make it a king sized bed (forgo the side tables), I would want the option to fiddle with the couch and dinette. I would want to make a bigger couch and forgo dinette and make it a desk workspace. I also would take the smaller bathroom footprint from the other model and forgo the bunks and use that space as storage and a place for a cat tree. Then it would be perfect!
Ooh cat camping!
General look and decor 2 thumbs up
Luv the blackout plexi on cabinet❤
Ty Gina
I would like to see a "side splash" for the fridge side of the stove top. A bottom to top shade in the door would be lovely. LOVE the shoe garage! LOVE the coat hooks by the door. Would like struts for cupboard over the TV. Would like a larger oven and a stove top without the cover... more residential. Perfect outlet placement. Could the booth be switched out for a desk, perhaps?
BIG vent fans would be happier.. LOVE the side stand's "marble" top and LOVE LOVE LOVE that it opens up!!! All upper cabinets needs struts, please. The theater seats are my favorite. I'm not a fan with the looks of the outside. I don't know what would be better, but I wouldn't want to take a closer look at this if I saw it at a campground. This is a good start! Thank you, Uncle Josh!
Yeasssss on the side splash
