Debut Of The NEW 2024 Thor Sanctuary 19A Adventure Van On The Mercedes Chassis

[@treedeblue]

Interesting, layout.

[@blkted2945]

Thanks Ruby, excellent as usual. I like the floorplan. I like how Thor changed the window trim to the enclosed casing, I plan on changing my casing, the old ones are bulky and keep popping off. The fridge looks smaller. I do like the rear bath and you can still see out the back, I love that about the 19P. Don't like where they put the TV, wondering why they didn't put in on the back wall, you could have put it on either side. I'm 6'1 and my wife is tall and we definitely didn't want anything in the center above to knock our heads on. Thanks for the walk through. Some nice things and good to see some improvements by Thor. They really need to get a battery remote battery management system that you can view from your home. I added a Renogy Smart Shung 300 and Core One display, they said it MAY void my warranty. I told them, you should have had a way to view battery levels remotely.

What a great introduction video 😁. The very comfortable Thor Sequence and Tellaro 20L floorplan in a 4x4 mercedes Sprinter chassis is a great idea. This floor plan offers plenty of living space and comfort. Everything important is available in this RV. With the Mercedes Sprinter Chassis 4x4 chassis, you are well positioned in terms of safety, driving comfort, range and fuel consumption. I like it 😁👍

Great detail review. Is it AWD or 4x4 like the back shower. The sofa's look uncomfortable for me.

Very nice Ruby! Thanks!

Nice vid and nice RV . Like the bath in the back . Lots of room

[@milesfong3901]

Twin bed and rear bath is my favorite layout.

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello Miles, I definitely love this layout as well. Thank you so much for watching! 😊

[@todd9598]

Awesome van. Love it.

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello Todd, I love the layout of this van. Compared to my Sanctuary 19P, this Sanctuary 19A has a bigger bathroom, feels roomier, and has more storage. I hope you are having a great weekend! Thanks for watching! 🌺

[@todd9598]

@@Adventure-Mom I was wondering how it compared to your van. Perfect timing on your response.🌹

[@jzwilkinson]

I have the Sanctuary 19P and every other layout that comes out I love 😂.

[@Ravenzoom]

Hi, how do you like the quality of your Thor van?

[@jzwilkinson]

Unfortunately, the quality of the Thor build is a 2 out of 10.

[@tuomasholo]

Thanks for sharing the walkthrough

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello, I am so glad you enjoyed the video tour. Thank you so icy for watching! 🤗

[@geocacherny7030]

The passenger side bed seems good enough to just keep that way. I'd prefer a fridge with a separate freezer, but for a 19', can't have everything. Never had a diesel before but this looks good.

[@DMyatt]

Ruby Happy Easter, we need some more videos

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello DMyatt, great to hear from you! I just got back from a camping trip and will be posting the video soon. I hope you had a fabulous Easter!

[@geocacherny7030]

I don't know why they all moved the cruise control buttons to the left. They all seem to have moved them

Hi Ruby, $180k, I guess because it’s a Benz, it is very nice. Good to see you, thanks 🙏

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello, I agree that it’s certainly a little pricey. Always great to hear from you! Thank you so much for watching!🌸

[@bassmonk2920]

Whats different from last year...

[@overlandvan8833]

That's a weird layout to me. Why have a bathroom at the back door? I would stay away from anything Thor, especially an adventure van. Seems like the build designer was rushing through this one to meet some sort of deadline or something.....

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello, thanks for sharing your viewpoint on this RV. I had a similar layout on my previous Tellaro van and it worked great for me. I find that having the bathroom in the rear opens up the space in the van and provides a good amount of space for a bigger bathroom. Of course everyone has different needs and preferences and different ways they will be using their van so this layout will not work for everyone. Thank you so much for watching. 🤗

[@Snoogleheimer]

Wow, you're beautiful.

[@Adventure-Mom]

Hello, thank you for the wonderful comment and thank you so much for watching! 🌺🤗🌻

Thor is JUNK..I had two Thor vans and NEVER AGAIN...very POOR QUALITY...I have a 2024 Thor MB Freedom Elite...I had to re store wires to a safe location...re work the plumbing ...fix water leaks...Thor has NO QUALITY control because there was screws and saw dust behind all cabinets....ABSOLUTE JUNK....when I went to the Tampa RV show I pointed it all out to the Rep...Dont waste your money.....I could go on and on about the poor quality ...cabinets are NOT REAL WOOD...Pressed Cardboard...again JUNK

[@billredding2000]

Y&es, Thor does have that reputation, and they own Airstream (scary). I had an older Airstream (mid 1960s)...I think they were clearly better made back then, even though way more expensive nowadays. However, even if a RV (of whatever class) is deemed "average quality" (like Winnebago) that isn't saying much, either. You really have to look hard for above average quality brand as those are few and far between. And I should add that you'll very likely see a Unicorn grazing in your back yard first before you find a quality-made (AND with a good warranty) RV. Personally, I look for Unicorn glitter-tracks. Easy, yet Unicorns STILL don't get how I find them (they're not the brightest cryptids on the planet). ;-) -- BR

I agree. We looked at Thor products in our search for a class B, but they just felt extremely cheap and low quality. We ended up with a Coachmen B and absolutely love it. And their customer service for their B class sector is top notch.

[@billredding2000]

@@danibee7035 Coachmen is one of the Major Crap Makers...HOWEVER, when I was also looking at Class Bs some years back, their Beyond was rated distinctly higher re: quality than their other RVs, especially their towables (especially their Travel Trailers). That (re: the Beyond) may still hold true today but I'd prefer something from a Canadian RV maker instead, as they (collectively) seem to put out a better RV (regardless of Class) than American makers do collectively, and some have a better warranty & Customer Care after the sale than American makers as well. Even Winnebago is considered "average quality," which isn't saying much (look up Winnebago). Specifically, I'd be looking at Pleasure-Way for my Class B (but nothing built on a Mercedes Sprinter/diesel chassis). Leisure Travel Van is nice, too, but they're B+/small Class Cs -- too large for my needs AND they scream "RV" if you're trying to avoid your friendly HOA noticing it parked outside your house. Another I'd look into is the also Canadian (Quebec) Class B brand VR Panoramic...they seem well made (and well-insulated) also. Enjoy your Beyond, -- BR
