- Sharon and Richard give us a tour of their custom DRV Dallas model 5th wheel coach. This full-timing rv has some very nice features, and is coupled with a beautifully matched HDT puller.
Stunning 5th wheel. Everything Richard has done throughout his HDT build has a smart purpose. Love it.
Thanks for the tour Richard. Some well thought out upgrades/additions! Really liked the Sunshine steps, great idea. Safe teavrls
Your home is absolutely beautiful. You are very talented. I loved your plaque GOD BLESS OUR HOME....Thank you so very much for opening up your home for me to see.
Great tour by the owner and thanks for sharing your beautiful 5th wheel.
Fantastic tour by the owner. Really enjoy the masterbedroom wood work. Good stuff.
I've watched this, I don't know, maybe 5 times over the past 8 years. It is probably the best laid out RV I have ever seen. I would want for only 1 addition, and that is a bit of extra floorspace in the bathroom, and a full length bath with a sliding glass door, rather than a corner shower. But that's literally it. Live for 3 months at a time in a location of your choosing, then move on.
One word "BEAUTIFUL" thank you 🤗😍
Wow beautiful rig, I feel privileged I have that same shower in my 24 foot work and play Toy Hauler! LOL
A great video of a gorgeous rig. I love the oak joinery-and your beautiful tabby Scruffy. :) Scruffy's very stealthy because he matches the woodwork. HeeHeeHee. Thanks for sharing this.
A fantastic coach. Thanks for the tour Gregg aka Mr. Camera Man :)
That basement of mechanicals is very impressive.
Real Nice Unit ! Like the South West Décor ! Thanks for sharing.
The First time I have heard of DRV and I like air over electrical braking ,Thank You again,comment on those air lines, GREAT 👍
I believe he said air over hydraulic braking
Nice! We just started our RVing life. We have a 24" trl, Amerialight 04. We have gone out twice now as we are getting to know our little home. In time we will upgrade as we become more experienced, thank you for the tour of your home! getting more and more ideas like your water and solar systems, but will work on that later :)
+Ed Reid Safe travels. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

Thanks for watching, and taking the time to comment Gregor.
Love the 5th wheel
What a Sweet heart, very nice home.
thank you
I enjoy it
Fantastic
Do you need a special license to drive the rig? Single axle in year but thought maybe there is a weight limit with a regular license. Just wondering as I would love to have a rig like that if decide to go for a large heavy 5th wheel. Also want to say great video and beautiful coach..
Hello Jim. It depends on where you live (your home state or province). There are unique rules in some, but generally you can operate these with non-commercial operator licenses. Because our RVHaulers are usually titled as motorhomes, all you need is the license needed to operate a diesel-pusher motorhome. Thanks for the great question.
very interesting......
Hi. love this set up. Great tour. My ? is how hard is it to find RV lot with enough space for truck and RV while traveling around. How much longer is this set up over class A with tow car. Thanks, Jim.
+james miller The older campgrounds are often not setup to handle longer (65 to 70+ foot-long) rigs. A simple call ahead will let you know if they can handle you. However, our longer rigs are becoming more and more familiar, and campgrounds will know EXACTLY what size of rigs they can accommodate. We see class A's at 40 feet towing a 14 foot long vehicle plus the three foot tow bar ending up at around 57+ feet. Remember both the Class A motorhome itself, and the 5th wheels are right around 40 feet when disconnected. That is a pretty common length in campgrounds. In either case, just disconnect, and your resultant length is in the 40 foot length range in both cases.
Does he pull that boat behind the RV?
very nice coach, isn't the tractor really overkill to tow these. I guess that would be kind of neat adding a platform for the dirtbike, streetbike, 4 wheeler. deer cooler without losing the space of a toy hauler.
+Warsrogue Thanks for your question. Actually, these are far too heavy to tow (and stop) with a pickup truck. There are other trucks out there, such as the Medium Duty Trucks (often called MDTs), but they are more expensive than our Heavy Duty Trucks (HDTs), and really just pickups on steriods. My customers completely agree with your second comment - the flexibility to carry your toys on the RVHauler is a great attraction.
+Warsrogue Not really, you need some power and weight to pull these things safely , so many people have a dually F350 trying to tow something weigh out of it's class, most of all this truck can stop this load without jackknifing .
Will the solar system power the A/C's? Does it have any dishwasher in the kitchen?
+Bob Shaw hello Bob. Solar will charge the house batteries but not directly power air conditioning. Air conditioning will run from an inverter that is large enough, backed by a large battery bank for some periods of time. The solar can't keep up with the draw from an AC for very long.
1600 ft lbs torque...wow.
What issues with propane through a tunnel?
THNK YOU Very Much, I am wander if you had Big Rig ?leedonald54 .
