- Learn more about the 2018 Plateau XLTD including MSRP: pleasureway.co...
The Plateau XLTD combines the versatility of two 29" x 74" twin beds with a spacious floor plan loaded with storage. The front cab area has two separate workstations that can double as a morning coffee lounge.
The dry bathroom enhances the appeal of the XLTD with its spacious Corian® and glass corner shower and large vanity usually found in much larger coaches. Plenty of interior storage along with three exterior storage compartments ensure nothing will be left behind for extended trips.

What a great, informative presentation! One day, hopefully, I can buy one of these. Time is short for me and I likely will not make it since I am 65 now. All you young people...live your life. Get one of these! Live while you can. Truly. Live.
Absolutely amazing! What a wonderful, well thought out coach. This is perfect for a couple who loves to travel in places that are typically inaccessible to larger motorhomes.
Again, Pleasure-Way shows how to build an extraordinary camper-van. Again Dean Rumpel is awesome in explaining thoroughly all the features of Pleasure-Way camper-vans. Thank you so much for this movie!
This is the best model yet ..... love the bathroom
Love the control panel tutorial!!! Coriander valance, large shower & lithium batteries
Excellent review of this Travel Coach. The presentation was as about as Professional and knowledgeable as it comes.
Nice job with the tech. I'm actually a bit jealous of this one; that's never happened before. Your design is one of the most well-planned I've seen. Keep up the great work and looking forward to seeing how you can possibly top this one.
This unit is SO CLOSE to being perfect. But there are a few things that would improve it.
1. Offer an option for an induction cooktop (either portable or built in) and 2 way compressor fridge.
2. Lose some of the storage and find a way to increase the fresh water tank capacity.
3. Consolidate all those interior control panels into one clean, neat designated "power" area.
4. Consolidate all those exterior access panels into one or two clean neat areas where you don't have them cluttering the drivers side of the rig.
Jennifer Harris Yes- this unit is so close to being perfect.
more battery storage
My new XLTD is completed and on the truck to CA ... YES
2badger2 congratulations...looks like a very nice R.V. & would love to get one myself, at some point, possibly with a few modifications.
Very nice will have to look at this one!
What a well built camper .
Love it! Was super sad not to see you guys at the Seattle RV Show last week.
Beautiful!
I could watch that 1000 times :)
This is the one I very like, I wonder if I can covert this as my tiny home on wheels where I am able to live off grid
Not to be nit picking, but at 1:02 you say it features "a ton of storage", around 2000 lbs...then at 2:50 we see the cargo carrying capacity much lower.
Pretty Cool Toy for any Minimalists....
With so much added weight inside the Van, it's a better idea if it's a double wheels on each side for safety. Used to drive a Van with a ton of equipment inside and i always had to replace the Tires every year, the extra weight wore out the tires much more quickly if it's a single tire on each rear side.
Very,very beautiful RV.
Note how easy it would be to use your CPAP machine using those plugs next to the bed.
Ozzy and his Son Jack finally gave up on the classic GMC and got one of these. They love it.
Hello, I didn't see in your video.... What is the door behind the passenger seat? It's above the flip up table. Looks like a closet door but very narrow...... Is that a pantry?
really nice model
It strikes me as odd that an RV manufactured in CANADA isn't four season. A blackwater flush using the grey water would be useful. And.. where do you put the back cushions when using the twin beds?
Thank you for that 4 season and 4x4 is the way forward,the only way to do that is truck campers artic Fox springs to mind
I wish they would make one that's more stealth looking from the outside
Uhhhh, Where's the rear BUMPER? In the body of the coach with the tail/marker lights?? What were the (Engineer's) thinking? This has got to be so expensive to repair after a collision..
Very nice!
Beautiful! I wish I had made better financial decisions!
Marie Morrissey ...don't worry...im sure they will finance tbe purchase..
Nice! Need a vent in the bathroom
What a nice rig .So I am in the process of selling my home to go full time nomad and this would be perfect . How much do they start at ?
OliviaNewtronBomb x
OliviaNewtronBomb can I join u
See on pleasureway website for exact quote, but roughly from memory I think they run between 140 000 - 150 000 approximately.
Get a larger 26 ft Class A van used. Cheaper, and size will be nice for full time. These are better gas mileage for major trips but you cannot store much in them, and why spend so much money on a new van. Used, used, used!
Nice rig for sure, but wow, my actual house only cost a little over 80K!
I would really want one but why is it only near CANADA when I'm in tx
Please tell us what the price is on your motor home at the beginning of your videos it would be appropriated thank you other than that a well put together video thanks
Is there a step down in the middle of the kitchen area????
Do the outside storage compartments lock? I mean, can anyone come along and open them, or do they require a key to open?
I just ordered a XLTD at the Pleasanton RV show. I was wondering what the 2000 Watt Zantrex inverter model number is? Thank you, Roger
Can I use this camper in very cold climates? Will the insulation be able to handle -20 C ?
How many tables does it have?????
Does it really hold 2,000 lbs of exterior storage? You said, "it will hold a ton of storage"
How much for 2018 xltd solar
Beautiful, thoughtfully designed.... however mucho expensivo....only for the extremely well off... Also Mercedes do NOT have good longevity....cheers... great work.
You guy forgot taking about how big watter tang (how many galon) and if in winter time how to keep watter not turn to ice and the as last how much ($) for this ... Motorhome
I wonder how much $$$ - but I'm sure if you have to ask you can't afford it. I noticed that they drive one on the Jack and Ozzy World Tour tv show but they blur out the Mercedes Benz emblem on the front grill. So I guess he still travels like a rock star....
Did I miss the bathroom?
@Pleasure-Way:
Give us 4-Season! Give us AWD/4x4 and the ground clearance to go with it so it's usable!
Why is Winnebago taking the lead in that while all the other Class B, B+ & small ("micro") C makers (including Canadian Roadtrek, which should KNOW how to make a 4-Season RV, but refuses to) are behind the times? It's 2018 and that's what more of us are wanting: 4-Season and true 4x4 preferred -- but AT LEAST 4-Season and a good AWD system!
So please, STOP the ridiculous exposed plumbing below the floor in freezing airspace. And better insulation in the walls/ceiling/floor. STOP the UNheated water and holding (Gray and Black) tanks. Also the UNheated drain valves for those 2 tanks. You're not alone, however, in that insanity: As mentioned, ROADTREK does the very same short-sighted thing and s offer no 4-Season or 4x4/AWD units.
And beef up SOLAR panel output "packages" big-time!
In short, get with the program for gosh sakes...
All those neat features and fancy colorful systems control screen you're taking about here are POINTLESS if we can't use out RVs ALL YEAR LONG as we WANT to, and as well, can take them off-pavement to some extent to get to boon-docking sites. We don'a ALL want to stay in expensive RV parks.
Please, stop giving us more of the very same every year (like the old & obsolete ammonia/absorption refrigerators -- dump them for compressor units!). The yearly updates (like this 2018 model) are mostly window-dressing up models that came before -- nothing for concrete and practical usefulness for TODAY'S buyer at all. Change that, get innovative, or at least play catch-up to what the market wants!
Wake up your designers...or hire new ones with a better vision of the present market as well as trends to the future. LEAD...or follow. You're following now, and back in the pack, too.
Keep track of sales figures for Winnebago's Paseo and Revel. Then build some of those yourself if you can't design your own -- but build them better, being Canadian! ;-)

Couldn't have said it better myself.
Totally agree, Bill. Also awaiting the gas version Sprinter. Noway on a diesel. 😊
Bill Redding Bill, you said it, especially with beefing up the insulation.
Come on, PleasureWay...
Ha-ha! Bill, I've essentially already done that. I'm a PT ski instructor at Squaw Valley. I'm also a (real) engineer so I have a modified my Pleasure Way Excel w/ true 4x4 with high/low gear, LS rear-diff, beefed up suspension, redid the plumbing to be able to withstand windy -30F weather at Tahoe, insulated tanks, solar panels & upgraded electrical system, HAM radio system, internet, remote camera monitoring, 5.1 BluRay system, 32" TV, remote engine start, etc. Not perfect but mostly there; a continuous improvement project. Improving insulation (for cold or heat) is hard after-the-fact without major dismantling. Out of necessity, it's become a mobile hospital for a family member.
When watching this video, I was thinking about how it's the same marketing avenue as for automobiles, homes, small personal aircraft, etc ... more TECH BLING! Form over function (don't get me started). Unfortunately, it's driven by customers so it's hard to blame the RV manufacturers.
What happens when that fancy touch control screen goes belly up in 10 yrs (or less). Yes, people do own these RV's longer than what electronics would be available. The only way would be to rewire everything into a new controller hoping that it would be compatible. Very costly for just lazy-ass convenience but that's what people want (not need).
Been watching the Revel videos, definitely more the Sportsmobile crowd for athletic outdoor couples. The response I've seen is that only affluent athletic couples can afford such vehicles. Alternatively, the Paseo is more mainstream with more creature comforts and limited "Sports" features for families & retirees. At the ski resort the last 2 yrs, there's been an EXPLOSION of Sprinter vans (mostly as the new SUV where it's a nice "homebase" for tailgating parties, essentially a barebones Sportsmobile). The reality is that many couples have divergent needs where one wants to do the weekend warrior thing & the other wants the comfort thing.
The shortest (2100) 4x4 Phoenix cruiser would seem to be affordable & appears to be fairly 4 season capable. I'd look into that but it's not wheelchair "accessible" for us.
The issue is the cost these RV's. The dilemma is that few people can afford except affluent retirees who mostly would rather go to warm climates and the beach. The development cost of bringing a product to market has to be justified by a minimum revenue driven by customer demand. With that said, there are low hanging fruit such as a tilt-tolerant refrigerator (my pet peeve), insulation, etc that would benefit any customer.

What is the price. Do you deliver anywhere in the world ?
Do you customise this RV for Europe and if so what is the price/cost.
Is that 16mpg for US gallons or Imperial gallons?
good question
No freezer?
Wow!
this was nice until I realized it sleeps on two people .. I have 3 adults in my family
CAN YOU LIVE IN THIS IN CANADIAN BC WINTERS ANYONE KNOW
What is the cost?
When will your TVs have a headphone jack?
By yy%
150,000 thousand 🤔
ikr...lol
LOL Not in this life time.
It’s true, these are expensive RVs. But here is what most people don’t consider: quality. Most RVs today are complete junk. Travel trailers, 5th wheels, and most Class Cs and As are built the same, using the same flimsy materials and shoddy construction. Do a Google search, or watch the dozens of videos here on CZcams about RV horror stories. Almost 85% of today’s RVs are manufactured by only 2 companies, and they produce crap that looks good initially, but will fall apart, break, delaminate, leak, rupture, short out, jam, flood, come unglued, and drive their owners to tears with frustration. I am not saying these Pleasure Way RVs, or other higher end Class Bs like Airstream, Hymer, or Leisure Travel don’t have problems. They do. But watch this video again and see how he describes the bonding, the cabinet fasteners, the latches, the materials, the wiring, etc. For an RV, this stuff is more important than anything if you are considering buying one. But most manufacturers know they can produce cheap garbage, and if that trailer or Class A has a fireplace, theater style seats, or other amenities that look great in the dealer parking lot, the buyers get sucked in. They know people won’t consider if these same amenities will break or won’t work in 2 months (or even the day you drive it out of the dealer’s lot). Potential buyers of RVs should do extensive research before making the decision to purchase any RV.
How much?
ed anderson approx. 150 000 Cdn dollars. See pleasureway website for exact #.
No 2018 XLMB ?
Uhh....you say front cargo storage....i see a kids bed !!!! LMAO!
People now want 4x4 and ground clearance for boon docking
100,000?
Cole Wayne Thornton closer to 150 000 Cdn would be less than that in US Dollars with the exchange rate...see pleasureway website for exact quote.
need the lottery to buy one
needs bathroom /laundry lol
Wow
I don’t understand the math. 1,200 lbs occupant and cargo capacity, yet you say “a ton” of storage. A ton is 2,000 lbs so....? I know what you mean, but volume is not measured in tons, which is a unit of weight.
Maybe they mean a ton as like "a lot of storage"
I'm sure he is using the "ton of storage" in a non-literal manner as opposed to actual storage capacity.
It's impressive for its capabilities but it's not attractive, in my opinion. The interior color scheme lacks pizazz.
$142,870.00??!!
Camper will cost lot of money
Ok
Apparent they are NOT very proud of their kitchen or it doesn't have one. CUTE omission
Hi Sonny, the kitchen is covered starting at the 19:59 point. Thanks for watching!
? 18:12
sdf
I don't like it! Looks like a delivery truck!
The carrying capacity is near useless -1200 lbs hahahaha - useless no cargo room
too much money!
No space for dirt bike or motorcycle....BIG WASTE of space an money #SCAM
Beautiful!
