Our Class C RV Tour: PACKED and LOADED for Full Time RV Living

- It's time for a NEW and IMPROVED version of our Class C RV tour. It's all PACKED up for our full time RV living adventures again. This RV tour we also mention some RV info and some RV upgrades we've made to make living in an Class C Motorhome that much easier.
Last year during our Class C RV living adventures to Newfoundland and back we were able to learn what we liked and didn't like about RVing, and then make some changes and switch ups to our RV set up. We also address some of our RV must haves, like the dinette slide you will see in this RV walk through that makes it feel like a large RV. Overall we love our small Class C RV, it has all the storage and space we need while also being maneuverable in tight settings, like a class B motorhome could.
Thanks for checking out our Class C RV tour / Class C motorhome walk through! Hopefully you found this useful RV info actually seeing the whole RV (motorhome) inside and out and just now much storage and capacities a Small Class C RV can provide.
We have more RV vlog type videos and RV how to's on our channel so check us out and join in our the RV travel adventures if you'd like! Cheers friends,
Luke and Alysha

Thanks for tunin' in to our updated RV tour everyone! With the changes we've made and not being covered in snow we thought this would be a little more relevant. Hopefully this gives you all a good idea of the storage as well. Cheers friends! 😁🍁
Very organized and tidy. I love the travel size toiletries bag and charging area ideas! Have fun and safe travels🙂
Thank you! 😁🍁
Amazingly organized RV couple.
This was a very informative video to watch. We are hoping to buy this next spring or so and full time it also.We are older (73&67) so this is a real lifestyle change. The RV's we have been looking at are the basically the same as yours, so seeing where you store everything really helped us get a better picture what to do with our 'stuff'. Thank you for the great video.
Hey David! Thank you, glad you enjoyed it and found it useful. Its a great sized rig with easier maneuverability than a big rig while still having a good amount of living space/storage. Sure it'll be a big change, but an exciting adventure for you two hope you have a blast! We jumped into it across Canada last year and haven't looked back haha. Cheers!😁🍁
Yes to the propane and propane accessories! Hank Hill would be proud.
Thanks for this tour.. I took notes the ENTIRE time. I start full time RVing next Spring 2021. Very nervous but having videos to watch like this are so helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful for you! We've traveled two years it now and have loved it. Certainly more content on our channel if interested! Happy planning and thanks for watching 😁🍁
Ally I would highly recommend their advice
How is it going so far? I’ve been leaning towards this life as a travel nurse.
I really enjoyed the tour. You know way more about your RV than any salesman would. You both also seem to have figured out your very best use for each space. It’s always interesting how RVers adapt to whatever space they have to work with. I was impressed with your lack of overstuffing everything. All the storage spaces seemed to have room to spare.
Thank you, appreciate that! This space sure has been a comfortable fit for all our stuff, and that is with some extra stuff we could have not packed and also living out of it for a while now as opposed to just using it for weekend camping trips. Glad you enjoyed the tour, take care out there 😄🍁
This is the best RV tour for beginner as I; thank you both very much!
Glad it was helpful!
One of the cleanest and nicely organized RV 's I have seen. 😀
I love the fishing pole idea. It would even work in the back of my SUV. It would protect the rods and the kids heads!
It's so handy to store and protect them! I've never needed to but have even imagined making it and then attaching a shoulder strap to it as a solid and cheap DIY rod carrier for walking to any lakes as well! Thanks for watching 😁🍁
‘Propane and Propane Accessories’- Hank Hill 😂
Thanks for sharing a tour of you RV along with tips!
Can't wait to see this summer's travels. Stay safe.
Full sun the next few days and loving it! Looking forward to sharing the adventures, cheers Dale 🙂🍁
LOVE your RV! You guys are great at tours, super informative and very pleasant to listen to! Thank you for doing this. Looking forward to following your journey!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it and it was useful! Sure has been a great RV for our adventures and made some good memories with it. Take care and thanks for watching 😁🍁
That was very interesting guys. Well done. I can’t wait to see your adventures this year. Cheers!!!
Definitely due for a remake! With all the snow in the middle of winter, with an old camera, rv being unpacked and the slide not working, we figured we could do a better job now! Gives a good perspective to what all the storage and everything is actually like inside and out. Thanks for watching as always, take care! 🍁
I use my mattress topper below the RV mattress because you just sink if the topper is above. You can not have a key lock where your propane is at it is a safety hazzard. Fun video
I’m getting ready to sell my 2 acre farm and go to full time rv living. I’m just tired of working for the man. And wanna live cheap
Totally hear you there. It's a fun lifestyle for sure. Now just having a small lot somewhere rural for cheap as a home base and youd be set. Best wishes and hope its smooth sailing for you! Also hope our adventures continue to entertain you until you're on the road as well! 😁🍁
you might wanna keep a quarter of that land, to park your rv..
What a great tour! Love all your organization ideas. You really have the perfect rig I think 😊. Hope the weather stays nice for you. Happy travels!
I agree, it's the perfect mix between space and yet still being able to fit in cities or turn around on forest service type roads. 2 days of full sun and highs of 26 Celsius with the coastal breeze here, living it! Thanks as always and have a great rest of the weekend yourself Lori 😁🍁
What a great in detail video! Thank you so much.
The thing I loved in the video you guys are very organized just like I do my stuff, big thumbs up.
Very helpful and detailed tour. Thank you !
Hello, you both did an awesome performance explaining the ins and outs of your class c !! I've been looking at 31' class c, due to your tour I'm rethinking my needs. Thank you both. Safe travels.
Thanks Randy! It really is a great size for touring around. A good amount of living space while not really being too much bigger than a regular truck. We actually just posted a tour on our channel of a 30ft crew cab Class C you might find interesting as well. Thanks for watching and take care 🙂🍁
Every time I watch. I learn something. What you walked about was amazing plus we have a cat . We like how professional you are .
Thanks Rebecca, glad you guys enjoyed it! Sure been a blast these past few years and this year is going to be a big one! Take care😁🍁
What a great video! I’m an RV veteran, but we just picked up a 22’ class C so I’m looking around to see people’s upgrades and hacks. Very glad I found you guys! I gotta say, your rig is full of outside storage that I’m very jealous of. I’ve only got one outside-accessible storage area (although it’s huge). Looking forward to checking out your content!
I am loving the scenery! You both are too cute! Thank you for the tour and info!
Thanks Kelly!😁🍁
Thank you for the great tour! Safe and happy travels to you! Y'all come on down on to Texas sometime!!
Thank you glad you enjoyed it! We would love to some day, definitely love Texas, was really looking forward to it before the border turned us back years ago when our adventures first began haha. Someday! Take care🍁
semi-retired divorcee ,living in a classic. A 1980 GMC Vandura Glendale.Plenty of room for my dog and I. And later this week I am purchasing a Utlity trailer for my new BBQ , generator,Mountainbike and dog house. Might even add a deep freezer.
Wow, sounds like you have quite the set up planned! That'd be cool for traveling with and the you could just leave the trailer behind for some day trips once and awhile too. Hope it all goes smooth this week for you, take care 😃🍁
Excellent video! Keep up the great work!
We are new to RV life and learning. Thanks for sharing!
Of course, thanks for watching and hope you're enjoying the RV lifestyle. We're on year 2 and loving sharing it still! Take care and safe travels 🙂🍁
U guyz have n awesome rv , I will definitely get solar ! Cant wait till i get my small class c rv , Thank u 4 the info video .! Very helpful !
Awesome RV ! It’s perfect!
Love it. Thank you. My wife and I are looking at changing our lifestyle. I think it's the only way I'll ever get to retire.
It is a really fun lifestyle. Weve seen so much of the country and made so many memories in the last 2 years as well. Loving it! Thanks for watching 😃🍁
Great tour. Enjoyed it.
Thanks, glad you liked it!🙂🍁
Thanks this video is very informative!
Nice to see u guys back out again . Greetings from Ottawa Ontario
Hey Al, thanks! Good to be back adventuring. Take care and hope you're having a good summer 😃🍁
Great ideas and video.
Liked and going this route full time myself.
Have a great time on the Island.
Thank you, loving it so far! Highs of 26 Celsius, full sun and a nice breeze today, cant complain with that woo-hoo. Take care 😄🍁
Very useful inside info! Thanks guys!
Glad you enjoyed it!😁🍁
Great video you two! Thanks for showing us your home on the road! Congrats on 3k subscribers!!
Big thanks as always B-Rad! So grateful to have you with us. 3k subs too is super exciting woohoo🥳.
We imagined this RV tour would be really useful to anyone who actually wants to see the space in us fully packed not just an idea of what it could be in use. I'm sure some people will benefit at least!
Have a great day there sir! 😁🍁
YOu should take a look at all the suspension upgrades that make your RV amazing to drive.
Beautiful Rv.
Hi Alysha and Luke, Your explanation is very clear and informative on the key assets of your RV. Travel safe and enjoy. If the American manufactures made some of their base vehicles in a right hand drive version, I am sure that there would be a market here in Australia.
Great positive video.
👍 "Propane and propane accessories" 👍
Haha you like that little addition? It just felt like it had to be said😂🍁
I just wish we could take our Class C in to Canada! Someday... Nice tips on boon docking!
So happy to have found your channel....very nice tour of your RV. I look forward to supporting fellow creators.
Thank you 😄🍁
I like the layout. Good luck. Stay safe
Thank you! Yeah its a pretty awesome layout I agree. Everything works with the slide in which is great for whenever we boondock somewhere and yet just the bush of a button at a campground and you basically get double the floor square footage which makes a huge difference actually when someone's cooking etc. Take care and thanks for watching 😄🍁
i really like your video. It helped us a lot in wondering if this is the right size and fit for us travelling. I love it. Nice job guys
🙂🍁
This was very helpful. Thank you!
🙂🍁
Great video! Thank you
That is my dream. I am single and would love to get a Class C RV (with a cat) for full time living. I adore cats!
Very impressive. I am jealous 😄
Great video guys , we r in Nova Scotia and just bought a 2022 Thor fourwinds 24F and this video has great storage tips .
You just gained a subscriber with over 3mil views on his channel !!!
Alysha, for fun please listen to your video and count how many times you use the word, "so". It will make you chuckle. Very informative video. Thank you.
Very cool! Ty for sharing this. New subscriber from Alabama here. Btw, the two of you remind me of Danny and Sandy from Grease.😀👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!🍁
You guys did a great job with organizing everything
Thanks David, it seems to be just the right size for us to live and travel comfortably in yup. Thanks for watching, take care! 😁🍁
Can you tell me more about your “motomaster voltmeter” setup? It looks like a good idea but wanted more info pls
The cat toilet, great idea!! Thnx
Good morning you two good video hope your day is filled with great adventures
( Kev c )
Thanks Kev! Super nice weather on the island expected the next 2 days and super excited to get to take advantage of it. Full sun woohoo starting to feel a lot like summer. Have a great day yourself man! 🌞🍁
Loved it. Thank you. Subscribed.
Welcome to the adventure officially! 😄🍁
Sweet ‼️💚😎
Guys I had no idea you had a utube channel! Love what you guys are doing! Keep going! Love the channel!
Hey man! Yeah it's been a fun little hobby project for awhile now, while also being a great way to save some memories. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the support! Cheers 😁🍁
Love your videos. Good luck and have fun. Seems like the rv works well for you guys. I have a family of five and three kids who bring all the goods when we hit the road, we recently upgraded to a new 35 foot travel trailer. Lots of space especially for the kids but maybe one day the wife and I would pick one of those class c who knows lol. God bless and keep the videos coming.
With a family I imagine that must be the best way to do it. A small C could work well for you guys down the road for sure though! It's fun being in a maneurable little motorhome hopping around easily I must admit. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it. Cheers 😄🍁
This is off topic, but I saw the color changing cups and squealed! 🤣🤣😍😍😍
Haha they definitely are pretty cool! Worked at Starbucks over the winter so had the opportunity to grab them when they came in stock. Certainly didn't stay on the shelf very long! Thanks for watching, take care out there 😄🍁
Hello !! Wish I could stow away in the back to join you guys on your adventure.
Hey Gary! At least you can join in here and we're uploading more now if nothing else haha. Enjoy the rest of the weekend ! 😁🍁
Awesome keep up the good work
Thank you and thanks for watching 🙂🍁
Ty for sharing this with us Hank Hill. 😅😂👍👍
I am a student cum entrepreneur from Seattle and I am planning to move to Vancouver to expand my business in Canada. More like every alternate week in both the cities. I heard they are quite similar except that one is surrounded by mountains and the other water. So glad I stumbled accross your channel. I am cheering for you guys, Good Luck !
We've only been to Seattle once but can definitely see the similarities. Both beautiful and fun places to be. Thanks for watching and best wishes in your endeavors!😄🍁
That is a very roundabout way of talking about yourself.
Nice Management inside the rv
Thanks🙂🍁
Love your RV. I just purchased a Thor Chateau 22B and love it as well. Sub'd to you guys!
Shower caddy shampoo Dispenser, three or two chamber are great holds a lot and fixes to the wall in the shower. So you can just push the button. Freeing up more space in the bathroom.
Very nice
Might want to store your weights somewhere other than the storage in the slideout. Less stress on motor and bracket.
True, someone else had also mentioned this and is a very good point to be safe. Thanks for watching and potentially helping other viewers with the idea as well! Cheers🙂🍁
That vent area you never got into is for the back of your fridge and you should clean that area out from time to time. Just twist the two little pins and your good to go.
I live near Sidney but did you get to Cape Scott, Tofino etc, they are amazing.
good vid.
Nice organization. Love how the black/grey tank connection is at a decent height while many are under the rig. Hope you can check out The Living Forest Oceanside Campground. It’s in my bucket list and looks magical. They also have a bunch of videos of other places on the island you may not of heard of to visit :)
I agree Sue the Black/Grey tank location is so easy to access in that spot. We just looked at that campground and holy moly it looks amazing, dang. We figured a tour was in order since it was so difficult to do covered in snow and with no slide, and no new camera. Cheers!😁🍁
We also have a class c . We hated the noise in the cab. We took the engine cover out, lined it the dynamat and put the original insulation over that. We also put high density vinyl under the carpet and it’s like driving a nice suv we can actually talk to each other now.
That's a good idea, nice! Certainly is a little loud especially up the hills haha. Cheers!🙂🍁
A very informative video. Very detail of the RV. You should get Fraserway RV Adventurer Class C and Canadian Tire to help sponsor you.
Thanks Rick! Sure should give people a good idea for space and everything that they're getting into. Wouldn't that be the dream to be sponsored by one of them, we sure do use and rep the products frequently enough haha. Maybe someday! 🤞🍁
Great video - very cool setup you two have! I REALLY like the mods you made. Can you all recommend places where I could read up on how to do your ingenious electrical and propane upgrades? Thanks!
Nice rig!!
Thanks! Sure works good for our needs at least. Take care 😄🍁
excellet commentary by you both!! very good ! and only 2 uses of "guys" excellent improvement. good editing.. congrats on that. you didn't say which park you are in ? still Goldstream? Perhaps take us on a park tour before you leave. ?
Haha thanks nope, this was just shot and uploaded basically so skipped over a few days travel footage to come, this was at China Beach Provincial Park actually! Beautiful in the tall spruces. Glad you enjoyed it, cheers!🍁
We just watched your video and enjoyed seeing the upgrades you've made. One thing we noticed is your weights are stored in a compartment in your slide. We were told that you want to keep that extra weight out of the slide area because it wears out the slide mechanisms faster. You might want to consider putting those in a lower compartment and moving something lighter weight into the upper compartment.
Happy travels. Looking forward to seeing more of beautiful Canada through your videos.
Thanks for watching! Good point about the extra weight on the slide, hadn't thought about that and will have to look into moving them, thanks for the heads up. Take care!😄🍁
I guess the paper towels and cat food have a new home.😺
i love your home it’s beautiful.the only thing i would upgrade i notice you have a curtain to your bedroom door but you can gat the vinyl pull door and they lock.you can get one individual door or 2 that close in the middle.
Hello thanks for the tour , you have a really nice travel RV , as I last said I bought a 20 footer travel trailer I paid 11,000.00 at first I was upset that I paid too much . After looking at the price of these small under 5000 pound trailers and with the amazing package that came with mine , I know now that I got a really good deal actually an awesome deal . The light trailers can be pulled with an suv so they are high in demand they actually are more expensive than the bigger heavier trailers also very hard to find . My 20 foot is a hybrid the ends open to a sleeping quarter and it has a dry bath it's fibreglass the rims are aluminum and sporty looking I fall in love with it every time i go in it more and more as I also find new things with it . I plan on going to BC with my mom ,brother ,and her boyfriend ,the best thing I love is being able to cook in the open mountains ,my dish I am planning is stuffed green peppers and cabbage rolls , but I've been very sick for 8 months and hope my new trailer will help in my recovery ,as covid is stoping me from getting a hospital bed and the proper attention to get better . If we do the drive I may have to stop a lot and rest on the way I can always sleep in the trailer to gain my strength I was a long haul trucker and drove all across the us and canada this summer I hope we could go covid has also stoped my moms Kemo therapy it's a bad thing and Im scared as Im also a diabetic , Im happy to see you two doing the RV thing right and I'm learning from you so when I go to BC we will get the most out of our adventure , this is my second trailer my first was like a scamp real small you could only sleep in it .My new trailer is like a condo on four wheels and as a fellow camper I feel we are all like family keep up the good blogs I enjoy them even if we don't make it out this summer but the good thing is that I live in Dryden an where I parked my trailer no one has asked me or said move my trailer because I own the property it's parked on ain't that great thanks and all the best Trucker Kelly :)
Hey there, thanks Kelly! Glad you've been enjoying joining the journey here at least and happy to have you with us. Sounds like a bit of a rough time there for you guys but hope 2020 starts shaping up for you, perhaps you'll be able to get a mini trip in if nothing else. Sounds like a nice trailer too, part of me wonders if I'd enjoy a trailer to then have a vehicle to be able to drive around as well and leave the trailer at a site. Maybe someday! Take care out there 😄🍁
What a great video, thank you !!! I never heard of this make of Class C, but it looks real nice. Went to their website (I think) and all I saw was truck campers? You guys did a great job - what a terrific couple - bless you both - well spoken as well !!! Question - how often do you have to fill your propane?
Thanks for the kind words! The Class C's start as rentals and then they sell them off used from the dealer, or that's how we found ours at least otherwise yeah ALP does also make the truck campers out of Yakima I believe. As for propane I would say it lasts upwards of 3 weeks to a month without using the heater much, and maybe more like half a month in the earlier winter seasons. Thanks for watching and take care!🙂🍁
I am actively look for my class C to start my full time rv journey with my dog across US. I have no clue what I am doing but hopefully youtube can guide me
CZcams definitely is the right spot for info, and to see the RV life first hand! Thanks for watching and hope the RV hunt is going well 🙂🍁
That was a good video. We just purchased a new Adventurer ALP as well. We pick it up in July. Exciting. We plan to do as much as we can during summer months and a lot more when retired in a few years. I would love to learn about all the places we can stay for free.
That is very exciting! Getting it in July should give you plenty of time to have some fun trips still too. Last summer we went to Newfoundland and back primarily free camping so might find some use in that series/playlist as well. We also have a few videos under the extra RV content playlist for apps we use etc. Happy travel and camping! 🙂🍁
Luke and Alysha Did a maiden voyage to Kananaskis. Beautiful. Have you been?
You should extend counter top. I did and is perfect, I make folding down next from entry, Milo.
That's a pretty cool idea! Sure would add some valuable extra kitchen space. Thanks for sharing the tip with us and everyone here 😄🍁
Thanks for the video...actually...
I'm curious will you be obtaining solar in the near future? You have a great camper! I love the manual crank for the slide out.
Just found you guys. Awesome rig following along.
Glad you enjoyed it, and welcome to the adventure! Been a fun last 2 years and looking forward to the many more adventures to share! Take care and seeyah around😄🍁
Thanks!😄🍁
Nothing to do with the RV but I just love how the cat appears randomly and always looks like its confused, like "why are these humans opening everything and talking to themselves?"
God Bless you, kids! (kids to this old man, anyway) Living The RV Life has always been a dream for my wife and me! I'm retired but my wife is still working, so we can't really live 'The Life' completely yet, we will get there. You have me feeling very jealous though! lol. Although we do have one restriction, I was born with a severe birth defect so my wife is forced to do a lot of the 'heavy lifting', (maybe we can hire someone to do all of that? lol) Anyway, we are going to subscribe so we can get the skinny on the RV Life!
Hey Jeff! We sure have had some adventures in our RV and love the RV life. Hope you guys get to try it out sometime sooner than later! We haven't been up to much lately but once our daughter is born soon here we're looking forward to getting out more again in the ol rig! Cheers 😁🍁
this is such a sweet comment
You guys are just so cute. My wife and I have been binge watching your videos. We have so many questions? How did you get started and for two younger people how do you afford the RV full time lifestyle do you work remotely? How was living in a motor home here in Canada 🇨🇦? What is the one thing you wish you knew before you started your journey?
Hey there, thanks Gary. Glad you guys are enjoying the content! We're hoping to do a Q&A soon to talk about a lot of that in detail more, but basically it all started with starting career jobs, buying a condo but then being bored realizing we wanted to do more with life. Especially before starting a family too. We sold our condo that appreciated well over the years plus equity to buy the rig and fund our first bit of long term travel, and then this winter we had to save up and stayed with family to allow us to do more again this year. We'd love to work remotely and make money on the road eventually but not the situation we're in for now at least. We've loved living in the RV though and the lifestyle and flexibility it provides. Sure has been quite the adventure and memories made compared to what our life would have looked like otherwise. Not sure if there is one certain thing to have known prior as its all worked out well for us and the rig has been great for the two of us. Sorting out a job and lining up some remote income prior to starting would be something that we could've tried to do prior though to make the transition easier to fund and maintain. Thanks again for being with us and hope that shed some light on it for you! Cheers friends 😄🍁
Sooooo nice. I'm jealous😁 Enjoy.
Thanks, indeed we will! Take care 😄🍁
Very helpful video's...many thanks! We would like to install the same quick-connect adaptor to our propane tank for a campstove...do you happen to remember the 'kit' you purchased to apply the install and ....as we are somewhat challenged with mechanical do's and don't is it a relatively safe and easy install / something 'anyone' could do?
You might watch how that smaller battery affects you battery bank as it could limit the performance of your larger batteries.
I'm really wanting to do something like this. I'm sure there's ups and downs (as with everything)... but the way costs of rent, etc is going... something like this would help immensely.
Totally does. It's a bummer we have no where warmer to go here in Canada for winter. It's been a blast traveling in it these past 2 years though. Sure would've taken a lot of hotels to see everything we did. Take care 😁🍁
@@LukeandAlysha I live in Canada too. I can only imagine what it's like in the winter. I was looking up for some class c motorhomes for sale in my area. I've got some more saving to do.
Anyway, thank you so much for sharing!
Good video. I just purchased a 2017 23rb picking it up July 3rd, looking forward to hitting the road. Where did you pick up your battery monitor.
Thanks
Nice Doug! I really feel like 23 is the perfect mix between having a good amount of space and storage while still being able to park in cities or maneuver on forest service roads. As for battery display ours is just a basic MotoMaster from Canadian tire, but we've recently also been eyeing this one on Amazon just to get some USB plug ins and extra use out of it ( amzn.to/2BOqTn2 ) Happy future travels to you, can imagine how excited you must be getting! Cheers 🍁
Super super useful video! Get Ready for my first RV trip!
Thanks glad you enjoyed it! Enjoy RVing and safe travels out there friend!😄🍁
