RV Review – Holiday Rambler Ambassador 40PBQ Motorhome 2011

An incredible FIRST Class A Motorhome

Whose first Class A? Well this is the FIRST Class A Motorhome that RV52 has put into the review list. RV52 is committed to “no talk” video walk thru reviews which give people a quick look at RV’s PRIOR to going shopping. We believe you can check out specs and all that business on the web, but by seeing the unit, like you would when you walk through, you can decide if you want to make the drive to a dealer. Up until THIS article, we’ve only really thought about travel trailers or fifth wheels.

These Class A’s are amazing. When you walk into your first one, even if it isn’t a HIGH end Class A, they look amazing compared to a travel trailer or fifth wheel – even high end Mobile Suites fifth wheels for example.

Most floor plans are bedroom in the back and steering wheel in the front. So differentiation is going to be on floor plan that much. No it will probably be on engine size and type, level of features, towing, hauling capacity, vertical size (cubic square feet), other high-end features (like leveling system) and the number of slide-outs.

Anyway, let us know what you think of our first Class A Motorhome.

List of features that rv52 noted :

  • Four slide outs
  • Single Axle
  • 350HP Diesel Engine
  • Bathroom in the middle – when in use – separates bedroom & rest of motorhome

Trying an online rv for sale site

Hello everyone. Just listed an RV (for my neighbor) AT THIS LINK HERE.

It is a for-pay site. Our PUMA RV we sold just using craigslist, but craigslist is somewhat limited by geography.

Of course I have the link on the front page of RV52.com.

But I thought it would be fun to try rvtraderonline and see how it works.

Would love to hear about peoples experiences using RVtraderonline. Why don’t you leave a comment.

I’ll send a $20 starbucks gift card to the most interesting comments (determined by me) (won’t be a friend so only NEW people will be eligible) from folks who have had experience with RVtraderonline. In fact, put your ads URL in your comment and I promise not to filter it out. I’ll give everyone 2 or 3 weeks to comment.

RV Review – Forest River V-Cross 25VCFB Travel Trailer 2012

A couples or singles RV

I really like the “V” on these V-Cross travel trailers. That extra little bit of space makes the unit seem, and this sounds funny to say, substantially larger. This is a really livable unit and has a great appointment and spaces for bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. As RV’s go, it looks like you’d wouldn’t feel near as cramped in this unit as a comparable 25 footer.

I wonder why the “V” design isn’t more common? Does Forest River own a patent on it? Do YOU guys know?

The DISTINGUISHING features ( here is a list of pretty standard items for a travel trailer ) for this trailer are :

  • One slide out
  • Rear Master Bedroom
  • Front Bathroom in the “V”
  • Electric Jack
  • horseshoe kitchen table (seats more peeps)
