Designed By ACTUAL Full Time RVers!! 2022 Alliance 310RL

[@edwardpfrommer5046]

Years ago I never thought I would be binge watching hours of a RV nerd in his element. Another great video Josh! Thanks for all the excellent info and to make it funny too.

[@marviningbrigtsen9324]

I’ve seen a few reviews of the Alliance rv’s...yours by far the best Josh! Love your enthusiasm and all of the knowledgable info you pass along!

Wow, Ty Marvin!

[@angiespencer3854]

LOVE this RV. From the symmetry in the kitchen to the carpet-less floors to no floor vents. Near perfection!

[@SamuelJMartinIII]

0:04 the layout says it’s all❗️🤩 + it’s dedigned by/for full time living‼️ 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙌🏽

[@richardbalding1101]

I love the design and layout. The price was a shocker when I looked. With that price I would expect a washer, dryer, and dishwasher included with a massive solar system. I also didn't see a shower miser. If it was about $30k or so less with a good warranty this would be my pick. I don't see enough to make it worth that much more than a Cougar or Rockwood that I like.

[@terryglover6361]

As full semi permanent full timers this unit is the best for us so far! ONLY change would be the be the non swivel tv. Might be getting in touch with you when we're ready to trade up! Thanks for all you do!!!

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Truly my pleasure. Thank you Terry

[@jameskennedy673]

My wife’s first name starts with a K., so that 4 K t.v. needs a swing arm t.v. mount. That fireplace is great for a romantic evening during cool nights. Alliance nailed it on this one even has glass in the door. When you were talking about the stove in the kitchen, reminds me of the song: Hey good looking whats ye got cooking. Josh this one gets a 10. You my friend gets 👍👍👍👍👍👍on video, keep the excitement coming

[@chrisbenson3322]

Brilliant through & through. Obviously this is the result of target end consumer feedback. Love it. I even don't mind the lighter cabinetry in the kitchen cause of the room separation feel.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Ty Chris!!

[@cpfpv6410]

Center of the living room (TV) and the center of the kitchen (oven) are right next to each other. No off door seating. Not the shortest or lightest rear living option out there, Its a great unit though and I love the AZDEL. I know I am biased but compare this to the 264RLS from Highland Ridge before you buy. Pros and cons to both for sure.

[@myrandabrown]

Fun Fact: At the beginning, it was my idea to have a floor flush kitchen slide. The Alliance team didn’t think it could be done but after contacting Lippert they found out it could be done. So, if you like that feature… you’re welcome. 😆

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

That is awesome!

[@fozzybear9114]

Hmmm

[@fozzybear9114]

The double azdell was my idea.

[@hoss1003]

Hey Josh.. Here we go. You asked for it ! Couch outlets should have been installed on the back wall, just high enough for armrest doors to flip up. Or, Maybe just put drawers in the front. The TV should be on a pivot, pull out mount. On the window behind the stove, I hate them. They're to hard to keep clean. Either remove them or have a backsplash or splatter shield hinged to the top of window, under the microwave with magnets to hold it up, when not in use. You could even have one slide up out of cabinet behind stovetop and have magnets hold it up when cooking. I love the island and big farm sink and I'd put a dishwasher in there. But, I'd change the faucet to a spring loaded sprayer. I would also have the residential fridge. I'd change the bathroom faucet, to a mid high, taller pullout sprayer type and I love the folding seat in the shower. The floor vents in the bedroom, should be moved further under the edge of the bed. That way I don't step on them with my bare feet, that hurts. That window over the headboard, doesn't need to be there at all. I'd keep the blinds down all the time. Because, all you'll see in the TV is that window.. The TV needs to be bigger and lower. Split the window, under the TV, into two side windows. Then put in stackable W/D in the closet. I'd also like the hallway switches and buttons recessed, so big wide shouldered people, ( like me ) don't hit them when walking to and from the bathroom. The outside speakers are to close together. They should always be placed, at least 8 feet apart from each other and at ear level when sitting down on the ground. It would be nice if, manufacturers would build heavy duty wheel wells, over and around the tires. Because, sooner or later they're going to blow and a 1/8 inch plate steel wheel well, would keep tires from destroying sidewalls.. That's my two cents worth. See ya Josh..

[@krisbeaver2901]

"Adulting is hard!". No truer words spoken. Great review, thank you for not fanboi'ing the Alliance like so many do. We actually met one of the factory reps at the Grand Rapids show, and although we loved the fit and finish, that AC was insanely loud! And I mean insane, on high if your standing by it you have to speak up like your in the bar. Yes, I know, it's nitpicky, but for us, the ultra-quiet AC is a requirement with my ears and how light my wife sleeps. Alliance went for airflow over sound, and per the rep, it's louder but runs less because it cools faster.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

This is super interesting info and I think it MIGHT have to do with the air setting. There’s likely a MAX flow function and a quieter more that is perhaps slower It may explain why I hear conflicting things like this from time to time. THANK YOU for sharing as I learn my way thru these btw

[@nevercomply9258]

OH MY IM IN LOVE!! THAT IS GORGEOUS! I WISH I OWNED THAT BABY!! ITS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL

[@revest100]

Needs to be a pivot for the TV! Absolutely.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Thankfully that's an easy fix!

[@Mediascope1]

We just took delivery of one of these. Our first trip next week. While there are other very nice high end 5th wheels it was all the little things that drew us to Alliance. Lots if large windows that open, deeper bedroom dresser, tons of storage. Sturrdier running gear was a big plus.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Yeah for the most part it really seems like death by 1000 paper cuts to me as I looked over this one. It was a bunch of small smart subtle things that aren’t always right in your face

[@MrBillSabre]

In regards to the TV, if it is an IPS (such as an LG) screen the angle won't really matter because the picture won't degrade. At home most people do not constantly pivot their TV based upon what piece of furniture they are sitting on. My 2 cents.

[@Kevin-qj7fp]

i like 5th wheel floorplans because they have the bathroom right in front of the door which is in the middle of the the floorplan as well as easy access to the bedroom since the bedroom is just to the right of the bathroom

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Definitely easier than going up and down steps at night

[@sandyfisher6694]

We really love this 5th Wheel! My only wish would be for 12V fridge and for a first RV, the height worries me, but my 6’4” husband appreciates the height inside. Great design!

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Big 12v is my personal preference as well but 16fu ft is as large as I have seen them so far

[@SamuelJMartinIII]

10:45 the correct way is for a window that opens because if you want a window that opens it can do that, if yo want a window that doesn’t open you don’t have to open it, if you don’t want a window you can cover it with the blinds or add something with more temperature control (purchased or DIY reflectics, etc.) = most flexible to meet all needs & desires; as cutting a hole in your slide wall to mount a window… 🪟🤨

[@edpeck645]

Josh, I see why you are so excited about this RV. I do agree with you about the living room TV, it really should swing. But it's not a deal breaker for me. The rest is just outstanding.

[@lanedelker9161]

Your killing me Smalls! Unbelievable, you asked if there was any other RV's we were interested in and BAM! There it is! I like the floorplan a lot. That is our go to want list, with the 2 way fridge. Love the table without the legs and the wide body look. I'm not sure about the A/C set-up, but if it works well, that's all that matters. I agree with you on the TV. It should be on a pivot arm. Easy fix. Bathroom is layed out very nicely, and I can really appreciate the flip down seat. Soft close on the throne is nice too. There's one thing I would change. In the kitchen cabinets on each side of the stove. I would have sliding pull out drawers instead of a shelf. Much easier to load and unload that way. So the PVC roof, does it need any special maintenance other than cleaning? UV protectant or anything like that? Great video Josh, thank you. For us, it's just like you've been reading our minds!

18:07 as important as storage is in any RV, I prefer this one without the overhead/bed storage with the opening window for a more spacious feeling & airflow; + it’s bad Feng Shui to have your head cut off by an overhead cabinet while sleeping 🛌

Dimmers are so nice for mornings and evenings!

[@6582rg]

Pivot TV. For a couples RV I would prefer separate swivel recliners.

[@rosemarydoran9907]

this is a really nice floor plan. I appreciate seeing some contrasting lighter cabinets in the slide to break up the sea of dark brown in the rest of the kitchen and living room. I'm not a tall person so the table leg issue is not a problem for me but I can certainly appreciate how it is a benefit for taller folks like yourself josh. Does this come with an option for a booth? This is a very common layout in fifth wheels at least from what I've seen but as you mentioned every manufacturer does their own little twist. The range in the kitchen is very nice and I think would serve a full-timer very well. To answer your question, the TV definitely should be in a swing arm. I love the bathroom layout and the folding seat is great for the disabled. A really nice fifth wheel.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I don't believe they offer a booth on these Rosemary. Montana High Country is about the highest level fifth wheel i've seen still offering booth swaptions

[@donchaput8278]

That's a sharp RV. I really like the setup all the way around. I agree with the tv mount needing to swivel a bit. Also with ducting, the more ducting you have the less insulation you have in those areas. Can make a big difference in an RV roof.

Hey Josh!! Congrats on finally reviewing the Alliance brand! I can’t wait for other unit reviews and your take on em. Right now we own a 29bh WhiteHawk but are in the process of 5th wheel dreaming and this brand is at the top of our list! Two reasons. 1) Customer support and direct feedback (FB). Not every manufacturer has executives giving out their personal numbers online so you can talk to them. And may seem trivial, but with a 5th wheel that runs two a/c units off 30amp service is huge, considering most parks are 30amp only. Just my opinion but at 10amp per a/c … it just leaves wiggle room for the electrical system. Sorry for being long winded… thanks again for an excellent review!!! Good day 👍🏻✌🏻

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

That customer support after the sale is truly the thing that got me really paying attention to them. And it’s really starting to draw me in.

[@troykalinmontevideo7223]

Very nice rv but I will give my critique seeing you want to hear from us. I’m not convinced on the air conditioning. Unless I’m mistaken, even the ducted models have the option of closing off the ducts and just “dumping” the air. Mine does. I would want both options. After all, ducted would disperse air better on the occasions where it isn’t blistering heat to render them so inefficient. I agree with most others about the tv. Either make it swivel or on a televator and put a window behind it. I would want side valances on the windows at least most of the way down to keep light from bleeding in behind the shades. The bedroom side windows have them but the window above the bed doesn’t. Bright sunlight will light up the bedroom. I’ve also noticed manufacturers are not putting both day and night shades on as much. Just the night now. Money savings I suspect. Finally a minor detail for most but not to me is when the outside storage door trim is a different color than the trailer. In this case they used black trim on the white. It makes the doors stick out and looks tacky to me. All in all a nice trailer. We all have our own wants and needs and dream of being able to have the utopia of rv’s. I looked at this one because it is similar to the two others I’m researching. The Montana 3121rl and Solitude 310gk. Each of these have similar features along with this model Alliance. I was set on the Montana but now leaning towards the Solitude. I just can’t get around to paying more since Covid. I enjoy ALL your videos Josh. Bish made the correct decision to have you do their social media. Thanks

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Personally, I'd scrap the storage and the swing arm and put the TV on a televator so I can get that extra window but that would also mean losing the hidden storage behind the fireplace that people seem to like so much.

Want to tell you a story.. about a camper I know, when it comes to camping its the one to tow. Aint no teardrop trailer, aint no pop up tent. But when she gives it to you.. its all that you can get! Its a whole lot of cooking, a whole lot of cooking....Whole lot of kitchen,(brannanow) a whole lot of Kitchen! lyrics by Blackwolf, Idea and song credits to Josh! LOL (non AC/DC fans google Whole lot of Rosie) Thank you, I'll see myself out. :P

Don't like the stove open flame setup near windows, what will the constant heat do over time to those windows. I think it should be all meatal background that is heat resistant or have a meatal plate protecting the windows.

We love the Alliance Paradigm and have been looking at the 340rl. Would love to see you review it! Thanks for another great video👍

I’m definitely interested in getting more of these on camera when I get the opportunity so I will add that to my hit list

Hey Josh, looking at this and the Grand Design 310. Which would you prefer for full-time living?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Frankly Chris.. I could flip a coin on this one. It's really a question of the fine details you're seeking. They both check the same "big" boxes the same way Do you prefer azdel? Do you want a third A/C? Do you have a preference with tires? Do you prefer one cosmetic package over the other? Do you like bluetooth-capable control systems? It's *really* small details that define them. I'm not sure which I would go with myself without really stacking them up a little more side to side

Hi Josh!!! What cabinetry style do the use with the Alliance Paradigm? Wood core with MDF, screws and wrap, total wood with screws? Wood with wrap and screws? or MDF with wrap and staples?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I'm operating from memory here so apologies that I cannot offer an answer with 100% confidence. I believe I checked and I think it was wood core with MDF fascia under a sticker wrap which I think kind of surprised me. I was expecting at least full wood with a wrap We do not carry alliance at my home store so I'm unable to hop out to verify. That's an easy thing for several of our locations to double check for you of course!

[@donitaarender7839]

Hey Josh, love love love the Alliance brand! I'm looking at the Avenue. But wanted to say I agree that the TV needs to pullout and swivel. And I want all windows to open! If theres a window, I'd like to open it.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I have a trip to an Alliance-carrying sister store soon. They're definitely on my hit list!

[@ray85158]

I hear Alliance does a decent job on building, but I noticed three flaws as you did your walk thru. If they left the factory like that, they need to improve their quality control. If they happened on the delivery ride, then its just like every other RV manufacture they seam to think a couple of staples, little glue, and a few screws will hold things together. 1) Cloth trim on the valance under the bedroom TV is coming loose in the middle. 2) Ceiling trim in slide over table is coming loose. 3) There is a dent in the top part of the lower right frig panel. I had a window valance on my Trailer fall off after a couple of years. It was a 60" valance with blind attached held to the wall by a single screw at each end. I had to just shake my head.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

What I have learned about them is they acknowledge they’re not perfect but absolutely rose to the occasion when a client needs assistance which is a big defining quality I feel The general materials and whatnot are certainly similar to what’s out there. It’s the support area where they shine

[@robertsitch1415]

I guess you could say that they were able to use consumer feedback to combine just about every other luxury 5th wheels best features.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I think that was really their goal. You see shades of other brands here but also some neat original concepts

[@cindyonyoutube]

Great review, very thorough! I've been researching the Alliance but I learned a couple things from you that I didn't know, so I really appreciate that. I hope you can get your hands on an Alliance Paradigm 370FB!

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Anything you’ve learned about them I didn’t cover here or should be aware of?

@@JoshtheRVNerd As a fulltimer, one of the first specs I look at is the CCC. My RV is my home so I'm carrying all my stuff with me. I prefer a CCC of 3000lbs. This Alliance floorplan is a little under that, some of the other floorplans are more than 3000lbs. I think it would be very helpful if you mention the CCC. Also, Alliance only provides the privacy/blackout window shades. They don't provide the daytime/light filtering shades. The windows are one of my favorite features, but I think it would be really useful to have the daytime shades too. I agree with your assessment of the TV. It would be a "nice-to-have" feature if it was on an adjustable arm. I love the flush floor slides & no carpet. Because of all that, it would be quite handy to have a central vac system. That's not an option that Alliance currently offers. Thanks for all your videos, Josh!

Nice rig. I think ducting the air is more for noise reduction and would agree it’s a little less efficient.
