Cruise America Large RV Tour & Walkthrough

We rented a Large 7 Berth RV from Cruise America. After 3 weeks touring Florida and the Keys, we've travelled, slept, cooked and eaten in this van. Join us for a walk through tour where we point out the great, the good and the not so good. And finally answer the question, would we hire from Cruise America again?

What an amazing video. Appreciate the honesty on everything ❤❤ safe travels

[@davidalexander4043]

frig sucks not clean for the next renter

[@kaoliao]

Why would they charge you to use the generator ?

[@howarddavies6685]

Servicing costs?

[@davidmbell]

Fuel? Maybe it has its own fuel tank?

[@simpsoncompetition]

Just wear and tear they rack up hrs quickly

[@slannne]

Based on your holiday experience I wouldn't rent from them.. Great vids though!

[@RoamingRadfords]

Financially it was the best option, and not all dealers allow their vans to be rented out this dirty!

[@markharriers4694]

Well said

[@slannne]

@@RoamingRadfords Fair point. Luck of the draw on the day I guess. In all honesty on the hires we've had in the past in this country they've not always been spotless. though..

[@darneittajones8338]

We rented the same RV in Michigan twice. The first time was great while the second was a disaster. My 97 year old mother along with my son had "NO HEAT" for 8-days in 48 degree weather. This issue was related to the company and would not compensate us. Several of the RV outlets did not work for our cell phones and computer's. We won't be renting from them again.

[@markharriers4694]

I wonder if you would of given a different review if they hadn't compensated you 🤔

[@denisecafferky2248]

Great size van. Shame about the issues with it. Hopefully they up their game after watching your video 👍

[@RoamingRadfords]

So do we!

[@isobelchapman9548]

That was fair…glad the jiggly bits didn’t spoil your holiday. Just wonder when you’re going to purchase your own RV😅

[@RoamingRadfords]

Waiting for the market to improve!!!

[@lynmoore8355]

lovely good and honest review, that is all you can ask for....

[@RoamingRadfords]

Thanks Lyn x

[@willcummins6916]

Hello hello enjoying all your videos and I bet this will be another...keepem coming...

[@RoamingRadfords]

Thank you x

[@willcummins6916]

@@RoamingRadfords where would you recommend for first time European campervan trip..greeting from 🇮🇪

[@angelabutterworth8816]

I thing that kitchen pack should have been included in the hire.

[@RoamingRadfords]

Plus a dustpan and brush! And a corkscrew!

[@dudeleboski2692]

111 usd/day not bad considering you have transport and a roof over your head

[@RoamingRadfords]

Exactly! There were no other options at that kind of price point!

[@loftylad2741]

Mmmmmm.... a large petrol RV. Why not in the UK?☺

[@dzonikg]

Such huge RV that runs on gasoline ,only in USA

[@RoamingRadfords]

Yep!

[@Happyinmyautotrail]

Bet you were so glad to get back to your own van. Your own is a million times better than that hired one. I don’t know what compensation you got as that’s private but no way really could you in all honesty recommend that company surely?

[@RoamingRadfords]

It is hands down the best budget option. If you’re happy to spend 3x the price than the vehicle you receive will be 5x better. But, not all dealers are as lax with their cleaning procedures.

[@Explor182]

Fair review guys but a great shame about how they handed over the van at the beginning hopefully thy pick up there game still not sure if I’d rent one from them though with the problem you have had

[@RoamingRadfords]

Pick another dealership and you should be ok!

[@dudeleboski2692]

I used to own one. Very poor build quality. Fell apart after 10 years…………

[@RoamingRadfords]

That doesn’t surprise me one bit!

[@sallymurray2147]

Liked the tour of the motorhome you rented out it was nice but like you said lydsay it was dated

[@RoamingRadfords]

Dated and cheaply produced!

[@Pwhministries]

How many gallons is the gas tank

[@RoamingRadfords]

I have no idea

[@gereshomeE]

A GOOD & FAIR review! We normally use black tanks in boats BUT I agree with you: I prefer a larger black tank in RV motorhomes, too! ☺

[@RoamingRadfords]

Less faff!!!

[@richtea7868]

Think that’s a fair review. Everything except the ants would not bother me in a cheap rental but that’s just grim. The interior being dated seems to be an American thing. Their interior design seems to be about 20 years behind Europes in style and build quality.

[@RoamingRadfords]

Grim and dark, but we can live with it in a rental!

[@bettyourcampervan]

Another brilliant video guys ❤️❤️🚐🚐 xx

[@RoamingRadfords]

Thank you x

[@isobelchapman9548]

Niggly not jiggly!!!!

[@RoamingRadfords]

🤣🤣🤣 I guessed!
