Brian is straight up hilarious! 100% completely enjoy the entertainment value with the added bonus that your videos are quite educational as well! Keep ‘em coming, brother! Safe travels to you and your lovely wife, Michelle.
Look forward to your videos every Saturday morning...having my coffee and watching my favorite CZcamss.....stay safe out there..thank you for sharing...
Loving seeing van life. It seemed like yesterday when Brian would joke with Michelle about getting a van. Amazing 🤩
Thank you for your camera work, sound tracks and showing America. You are sweeties.
Lonn
Hi! Just wanted to tell you how much we enjoy your videos every week. Thank you for all the effort you put into them, it definitely shows!
🧡😊🤓
They should make the tv fold up to the ceiling when not in use.
Love your videos. They are always a part of my wife and my Saturday mornings. Thanks for the hard work and effort you put in your efforts.
Glad you both enjoy them. 🧡😊🤓
It was great of Grech to give you a loaner to use! Sounds like they not only have a good product but also good customer service.
We looked at the Grech at the Hershey RV Show. Very nice and similar to what we have now. Like you said, no RV is perfect but to be able to have all your creature comforts covered is such a huge blessing. I'm so thankful to have one and to be able to create memories in our "vacation home." Thanks for taking us on your travels and giving me some ideas for future vacation destinations.🚐
Love the music, food, and YOU TWO🥰
I am so excited to see y’all “in a van, DOWN BY THE RIVER”.😂 We are really close to heading to so Cal (🙋🏼♀️my hometown)Thank you for sharing!!!!
Good video. Thankks.
Safe travels! I like the the closet space! Bigger fridge, too.
Thanks for the comparison. I was not sure about the length of the Terreno Lounge and was thinking about the Strada. I see is perfect for traveling with two kids. Is it easier to drive or about the same?
They seemed about the same as far as driving.
Very nice. Really learning a lot about Grech (and the Terreno-Ion). We like how you break up the shows, this one was very informative and useful as a potential customer. Your honest evaluations are spot on and very helpful. Keep up the good work as you two are quite the travelers, commentators, companions, comedians and, of course, world class pie eaters . . . 🥧
Love when your in my stomping grounds. Love you two
beautiful sun set
Really like the close out music ...call it a day and celebrate. Nice thought.
Gas may be cheaper at Indian casinos because it isn’t taxed.
My dream rig is the Terreno Ion Tour that has only 2 seats, but with the bigger frig and the big closet. If you make it to Tucson this winter, make sure you check out Sabino Canyon, if you haven’t already visited.
Enjoyed the video! Always fun to see different campers!
You didn't miss much at the Beachcomber! The view is the best part! We stayed at the Marriott on top of the hill above Crystal Cove. The burger shack on the PCH in that area is great! Love California!
Definitely a nice rig I would like having the 2 extra seats for sure
Look when that bathroom door opened just as you were talking about it, I about lost it all. Was waiting to see a ghost.
😂 When I was editing it, I got creeped out, so I can imagine how you felt watching. Lol
Sharp looking van.
Love In-N-Out my granddaughter (first & only job she ‘s ever had) & granddaughter-in-law are Managers.
You were just down the road at Tachi Palace, glad you had a good stay there.
We were just coming out of the casino RV park today and I mentioned how the gas seems to be always cheaper at the casino. I figured it was because tribal casinos don't have to pay federal and state gas taxes which I verified to be true.
That’s part of it for sure, but we thought it was good info for others to be aware of that it is cheaper.
Great video! 🙌👍thank you the review of Terreno RV. It looks amazing but I get that it doesn’t work for you guys. Stay safe and waiting to see your next video. 😀😀🙌
Thanks for the video, and for going to In and Out. My nephew does QA for them.
We love their burgers! We should be affiliates as much as we go. 😂
We just went from our 32ft class c to a class b watching you and a few others with class Bs helped us make the decision to go smaller it's an adjustment for sure haven't taken a big trip yet we will be in it for a month or two this winter 🤞🤞🤞 really hoping it will be not too bad
You will love the ease of traveling and less headaches. It does take some getting used to just like when you downsize any other time. The floor plan and quality is what makes the difference. We hope you guys enjoy your travels! 🧡😊🤓
@@LivinRVision thanks. We went with a coachman beyond on the ford chassis. Thank you all for all the work you put into your video's we really enjoy watching you 👍
Awesome! Hope you enjoy it for many years to come.
Casinos are less expensive due to tax exceptions for Indian lands.
Great review! Thanks, I would be up in the air on deciding. I even like the 19' 4wd model
Just an FYI, Grech now offers the Terreno in “All-Wheel Drive”.
@Tito They also offer a 4x4 in the Turismo (in addition to the Terreno).
Can't help but notice that Michelle must be the same short as me. My feet don't touch the floor when I sit in a desk chair either. If the chair is big enough I usually sit with my legs tucked under me. Thanks again for making my Saturday morning. ee
So, #1 is thanks for the tip about the “can’t locate the key” message. We’ll try that. It seems we can only drive if the key is placed in the little cubby. I have a VW and I LOVE the fact that I can leave my key in my purse. Not having to dig for a key has changed my life! #2 For two people camping, I think the 4 seats is wasted space. There should be an option for three, then you could have your closet. Or,the additional seats could be removable. If you only need them once in a while when you have guests, it’s not worth the space. IMO. Thanks for the tour!
We thought the same thing for a long time but then realized if you just unlock all of the doors it will start.
Exactly, which is what we say a lot about not being worth it. For some it may be just what they are looking for though.
Great video guys we were just at Crystal Cove visiting our family, No better place to have pie than the Julian Pie Company. Safe travels
Thanks Pete! We definitely need to stop again next time. Stay safe as well!
🧡😊🤓
Coolest music...
Temecula! My stomping grounds! I hope you come back sometime. I love your videos!
Love Temecula!
Some friends of mine bought a brand new Jayco class C and within a week they got the regulator recall, the "SS" kitchen sink started rusting and there was a whole list of other things that needed fixing. It sat in the Camping World parking lot for 2 months waiting to be repaired. They keep saying they where waiting for parts. They gave up and went and picked it up. They open the door and the new sink and regulator where sitting on the floor. He fixed every thing his self in about 1 hour.
Always hate to hear things like this. That can be so stressful. Glad he got it all fixed.
I used to live in Julian California and remember when they only served apple pies, guess they have diversified since the early 70's
Brian and Michelle, first of all, love your vlogs. I’m living through you right now, but would love to transition to RV living soon. What video equipment, drones, cameras, phones, etc. do you use to get the best quality videos, because your vlogs are just beautiful. I’m obviously new to all this so just not even sure what to ask you about to get started. Maybe you can do a video of how you got started and what equipment you use, that would be an awesome video. Thank you so much for your enjoyable posts, love them all.
You’re asking for some videos they’ve already done. Subscribe & they’ll all come up :)
You were in my neck of the woods when you stayed at Tachi Palace in Lemoore. I live 30 minutes from there in Visalia.
Love your videos!
Dang! Wish we could have met!
@@LivinRVision Maybe the next time you go to Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks!
Oh yes, gas prices are through the roof AND are taxed more than other states from what I understand. Thanks for the tour of the Terrence-Ion. It’s very nice and certainly attractive though I agree a closet would be nice. Menifee is pretty much a college community that neighbors to senior community. The ocean and mountains are my favorites. Next stop PIE?
Pie it is! 🧡🤓
Our son is a Park Ranger there! Hope next time you can say hi to him. Ranger Blake!
Great video! Grech has a Terreno with the same floor plan as the Strada you as using. It is called the Terreno Tour. You are reviewing a Terreno Lounge
Yes, that is correct. If you go to GrechRV.com and click “models”, you can see all the models. We were just in this for a few days and decided to do a quick review, not necessarily to mention everything and all the models available. They truly do have a great product. 👍🏻
We picked up our Grech Terreno-Ion “Tour” back in August. Exact floor plan as your Strada-Ion Tour, just shorter. You can get both floor plans in either the Strada or Terreno. We went with the Terreno due to its shorter length knowing the rear storage was less, and we chose the “Tour” floor plan since we wanted the wardrobe and larger refrigerator. Also one correction, you stated a shorter wheelbase than the Strada. They are both are built on the same 170” wheel base chassis, the Strada is simply the extended version with the extra 2 ft hanging over the rear. Also, although they state the Terreno is 22ft, the label inside the driver side door says 277.5”. So I measured it from bumper to bumper, and yup, it’s 23ft, not 22ft, so not sure why Grech says 22ft. And as you stated, although we have only had it out a few times so far we have had zero issues with it other than a few settings in the Inverter/Charger that were set wrong. Our Dealer simply would not respond you our questions so I called Grech directly, and I was speaking with a person in less than a minute who then walked me through correcting the settings through the firefly control panel. Excellent support!
We love it so far!
Actually, as mentioned, the Terreno-Ion Lounge we showed in this video is 15” shorter than the Strada-Ion we are in. (We mentioned total length not wheelbase). We are here at the Grech RV booth today in Big Bear at the Adventure Van Expo and asked again just to make sure. Glad you love yours! 🧡😊🤓
Oh God…not GT-C again!!!! Dude. Get a life!!!! Seriously.
@@j.andrewwrinkle2172 @J.Andrew Wrinkle: What is wrong with you SCHMUCK?
Who do you think you are...?
GROW A BRAIN AND THEN COME HERE AND COMMENT !
If you do not accept my questions...YOU GET A LIFE !
I'm the person who said a while age that you 2 should try living in a van RV. You replied back that Michelle would say "no way"! This was when you had Vinnie! Then you went to the Air Stream I also had a 35' MotorHome then pulled an Airstream Bambi. (Pulling is a pain in the butt) I'm a school teacher w/ 40 years on the job & retiring next year now that both daughters are in college. Buying my van to live in soon & follow your channel weekly. I'm going where you 2 have been! Love you channel!!
Oh and Love Grech Strada, just wish more outside storage and dry bath. Guess couldn't put storage pod behind because of doors??
You actually can with a swing arm like the one we had with our e-bikes called RakAttach. It swings away from the doors so that you can open it. We showed this in a few videos. The 24’ Grech models have quite a bit of storage compared to the other models.
@LivinRVision thank you so much for info. Definitely calling them and also checking out swing arm storage.
Oh and time for pie Michelle 😉🙃
🧡🤓
Hello Brian and Michelle!! I hope all is going well. Dang.. we just missed you two in LA by a month :-( I was there at the end of September.
Heather and I just returned from a camping trip to Silver Jack Reservoir, near us, which is a fall leaf change mecca. Heather has some tasks to do , so my dog and I are heading to Paradox CO for 2 trips ( have to break it up due to some upcoming day flights).
Safe travels!!
Hey Alan! Wish we could have met up. Maybe we can hit Sherman’s Deli sometime soon if you are flying in anytime.
@@LivinRVision What's better than hitting Sherman's Deli, you ask? Hitting it with Brian and Michelle!!!
Yes...we were just in CA at the end of September. So, hopefully we will be back in October or November. I will definitely let you know! I'm airlining to Des Moines this morning to bring my boss back to Telluride today.
Time for a rubber door wedge. Lol
Safe travels.
We have a hook/lock (that we shared in a previous video). We just forgot to latch it. 😂
Maybe they can make a model with only one second row seat and then give you a closet and bigger fridge on the DS.
We have mentioned that…we’ll see.
Yes I'm looking at a Terreno and was thinking I'd need a closet where that seat it behind drivers seat - daughter is piano player and we have to carry an electric piano in a hard case and speaker, stand, etc - nowhere for it to go with 4 captains chairs!
😂 Head bumps! I put my arm across my forehead one morning and ouch! Then remembered I opened the closet door while sitting on the toilet looking for toilet paper roll which dropped on floor then went to get it and wham!😳 Shelley xx
Ouch! It’s always funny “afterwards”…to those witnessing at least. 😂
And the bruises keep coming! RV life!🤕
🤣
You look very sharp in the peach shirt, Brian. Michelle probably likes you in peach since that is a favorite of hers. 🤣 I totally agree that the extra seats and table are a major plus for room and entertaining. I could live without the closet. That just means I have less stuff.
Never thought of it that way! 😂 Guess I’ll have to keep wearing peach. 🤪😉
I pretty much don’t have “a closet”, but can’t convince Michelle to go with a model with no closet…yet. 😉
The seating for 4 is awesome. Find a way to make it work, there’s got to be a way. Do the make one on a longer wheel base?
They do not. Both the Strada and Terreno models are built on the 170” wheel base chassis, with the Strada using the Extended version, more hanging out over the rear axel which is what gives you the extra storage
FYI, we own a 2022 Terreno-Ion
@@titomesserli26 Greetings Tito. I am also looking at the Terreno-Ion but waiting for the 2023 model. My concern on the Strada is that there is way too much hanging over the rear and getting in inclined places/driveways would scratch the bottom...What are your thoughts on your Terreno?
@@gt-c- we chose the Terreno due to its shorter length, and although the Strada looks great it does seem a bit long in the rear, just like the Airstream Interstate which we also,looked at. However, you do lose a substantial amount of storage above and behind the couch. Also, as we discovered, at least on our Terreno, the chassis, I.e. the Mercedes end of the deal did not have a number of features we were expecting. Why? We test drove a Strada since our dealer (Washington) did not have a Terreno, it was brought up from Oregon for us. We assumed, our fault, the only difference was the length. We should had verified the expected features 0n the Terreno’s chassis before they brought it up to us. But, not a big deal really, we love the Terreno so far.
@@titomesserli26 Tito...thank you. Would love to chat and get more details (chassis features)...
@@gt-c- as far as chassis features, we did not order our Terreno, so it came with whatever Grech ordered for its Terreno’s at the time, which we thought was the same for its Strada. I am sure if you ordered one you could get it fully loaded, along with I am sure a very long wait. In any case, here is what it did not have that we were expecting:
- In dash navigation: No big deal since it does support CarPlay
- TPMS: again, not that big a deal since we purchased a TireMinder system with 6 sensors. And if you don’t like the external sensors I am sure Mercedes or Les Schwab could install internal sensors
- Electric adjustable seats. Turns out, having manual seats makes it quicker to turn the seats around since you can slide them forward/backwards a lot faster than the electric seats move in the Strada we test drove
- Adjustable air-suspension: It does have electronically controlled air suspension, but you can’t manually lower the rear end if necessary when you pull into an RV site like Brian & Michelle have done many times in their Strada.
So, nothing that stopped us accepting the Terreno, and our Dealer did take a bit more off the already discounted price due to the missing features we were expecting. So despite those features we are so far very happy with our purchase, despite its price. But, as you know you get what what you pay for
we would love to hear your thoughts on the Terreno 22" we are on the fence between Strata 24' we are Not going to full time maybe a month for longest, you had mentioned Terreno drove a little easier
Sure! :) We did give our opinion especially towards the end of this video. We would really like it if it had a closet. We think we could get by with the smaller fridge but don’t like how low it and the microwave is. For us and “our” lifestyle, we need the closet and extra storage space. Someone like yourself may not need that extra storage up above the couch/bed.
Hey Brian and Michele! Looks like y’all are having fun. Where will y’all be for Thanksgiving?
Your house! 😁🤪 We’ve been discussing that recently and not quite sure yet.
@@LivinRVision Come on down!
👍
Maybe the heating interface could be intergrated into the firefly?
We own a 2022 Grech Terreno-Ion and have wondered the same thing. Would be very convenient when in bed, even though our timberline control is in the back just below the Firefly panel like their Strada, since ours is is also the “Tour” floor plan
You guy’s need helmets in the van! Hope you like the big city driving. We have not been to California in years. Stay safe. 😎🤓🥸
That particular van for sure! 😂 That TV hangs a bit low even for us short people.
Casino gas is lower in price because they have lower taxes (no Federal tax on Indian reservations)
Great review ... how long will yall have the Gretch?
More on that to come…
Do you know anything about Gretchen rentals? Would like to experience this way of travel before purchasing.
They do not rent any of them, much like other brands like Airstream.
You might try Outdoorsy….they rent rv’s like airbnb rents homes. You might could find one on there to rent and try it out
Good video you went from motor home to an Airstream to strata ion its really to small also not paying 220 thousands for it have a good time 😀
😂 They are pricey, however… the comparable model of the Airstream costs more and isn’t built as well. You definitely get more for your money from the Grech than the Airstream.
Menifee? Just up the road from us here at Pechanga Casino, Temecula ! Ugh we missed you guys! 😶
That’s the hard part about us having videos that show where we were after we’ve already left. We miss out on meeting so many of you! 😢
Yes so true!
Great review of the Terrano! It is hard to eat in Newport Beach without a reservation. At least at the popular places.
No fed tax at the casinos.... same with tobacco
Brian seein stars!!!!!🤪
I did! 😂
I'm guessing your new closet space would be over the chair with the awesome window. No hanging space, just army roll or Kon Mari. No storage space in the back would be a downer & would the bikes fit on the back ? Hope you made it to Sherman's. (Vinnie has added an outside bar to Stella 🙄 )
Yes, the storage would be huge for us, but then again, it wasn’t really built for someone full timing in it. We did make it to Sherman’s…3 times so far! 😂
Tell Vinnie we are headed over so have those drinks ready! 😉
@@LivinRVision 👏👏👏 to the pie ! The drinks & hand pies will be ready 😉
👍🏻👍🏻🧡
Take 1 chair out and put in your Closet....I'm sure they would switch that out!!!
It’s an idea we have given, but it’s also not as easy as it sounds. It’s an idea for a next year model maybe.
How long to you get to use the grech?
No set date, for a while yet.
We have been puzzled by how fast you are going through parks and you appear rushed. Could only think you had a deadline to turn in the RV.
Lol we talked about this in a prior video, saying that we need to get to a “commitment”. That commitment was the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. We only stopped at Grech recently to rotate tires, clean ac coils and do a check on everything before heading to the Balloon Fiesta. We love all the guessing though. 🧡😊🤓
Hey Bryan, I’m interested in the Mercedes chassis. Could you film techs doing regular maintenance items. I ran into a gentleman that now owned a Dodge Promaster chassis. He said he can go all get the maintenance on the Dodge himself. On his past Mercedes he said an oil change cost like $300, this was on the diesel like you have.
We’ll have to see if something like that is possible sometime.
You should have hit us up we live about a block from thousand trails😊
We would have if we had known. 😢
Well next time you’ll like are food we’re low carb high fat, ketovore 🥩🥩🥩
Wish I got 18.1 miles to the gallon, lol but it was a stretch to go from a 3000SF house to a Class A, I don't think I could do the "van life". I'm already at TTO. See you soon.
If you didn’t eat at the Beachcomber, where did you eat? 😂
Chipotle 😂
Your in my home area hello hello.
👋🏻 👋🏻
RV Manufacturing quality has really nosedived the past few yrs while prices are just plain ridiculous.
One thing i have noticed is as solar & lithium batteries are being pushed majority fail to mention the fires caused by those batteties and how instead of chasing the fun of camping they're chasing the sun to watch tv. 😳
The ones that don’t mention it is because they are talking about the lithiums batteries that are not known to have that issue. Look into magnesium phosphate and magnesium copper lithium nickel batteries. Many are scared away from simply being misinformed.
@@LivinRVision I've heard both sides - misinformation like opinions are pretty standard throughout the RV community. Just like all those that remodel brand new rigs. Many complaining that their rigs are in the shop more than on the road.
Give me an Onan generator & I'm good to go. 😊
I’d never want four people sitting around a table in a Class B. We’d be outside at a picnic table enjoying nature with room to stretch. And the microwave too low. Why can’t it be mounted above sink? I wish they’d make bathroom window that opens.
Its such a tight space and all those Mexican dinners you had…. just sayin. Good review👍
The times you would want four people sitting together are the times like we talked about, when you’re driving others with you and can’t hear each other over the AC. Otherwise the area in the back works for playing cards or whatever.
The Mexican food isn’t near as bad as the pie. 😂
😂
This only our opinion but we feel we made huge mistake but a thousand trails membership we should have bought the region only if that for two high reasons I’m a travel RN there is never two close by for switching and the second we have not stayed in one yet that is updated new stuff always run down.. again just my opinion out 5,000+ despite all the research we thought we had done. But oh well lesson learned
Thousand Trails has many parks and has been around for many years. Those of us that see all the parks across the country will notice that they are dumping money into many of them and still have many more to do. Like anything, when something gets old, it needs updated. Many of their parks are very nice also, those that have been updated.
The value is still unbeatable from what we have experienced. We have had to stay at places outside of the Thousand Trails system when traveling to places where there are no TT parks and paid anywhere from $40-60 a night and those parks were in worse condition. The thing about a Thousand Trails membership is, even when you don’t stay in them all the time, they still pay for themselves in a very short time. Once you start camping without the membership is when you’ll wish you had it. For someone like yourself that may not need the membership to cover the entire country, then you have to look at where you will be most of the time and see if it will pay off by doing the math of course. We just don’t want to see others get misinformation without all the details.
True .. we were Phoenix last year. Next fall new mexico
$7.01 OMG 😮
SO did you guys get rid of the Airstream and move into a Class B?
We sold the Airstream back around March and have been only testing the Grech RV Strada-Ion since as ambassadors.
That Torreno TV needs to be designed to fold up into roof of van.
Those gas prices are nuts! It's about $2.00 less a gal. in VA. No wonder there's so many homeless people there, they could not afford to pay there rent after filling up there gas tank.
I'm starting to think she's addicted to pie. Lol
Just a tad 😂🤓
Time for a pool noddle.
Yes! 😂
Wow, $250K for a van.
Your rich.
We watch for the adventures anyway.
You must have missed quite a few episodes. We are ambassadors and only testing this Class B for a while. However, the similar Airstream model is priced higher and of less quality. Agree though, they are not expensive units and have a place for a certain market.
They don't own the Van, they're being sponsored by the company for a year to use the Van
@Carla Smith We actually don’t have any timeframe commitments with Grech RV. We are just going along as long as we or they want.
I watch this series all the time. May I make a suggestion? We have on order, a “B” van built by the most innovative constructor. The wait time for one is about a year. No black tank, no wood, no solor,no propane. Call them. Tell Terrie I said hi!🙏
Embassy is the 1 !!! 🙏
I don’t think I could live full time in a van. We have a dog and that would not be enough room for us and her.😊
Like anything else, they aren’t for everyone to live full time in. It works well for us because of our work/explore lifestyle. You have to be comfortable, that’s for sure. The model we are testing is a 24’ which is longer than most Class Bs.
We own a 2022 Grech Terreno-Ion, we do not full time in it. However we do have two large dogs that are always with us, two Borzois, and we make it work. It’s a comedy of errors sometimes getting into bed, but the dogs love it cause they get to sleep with us
