I am hoping to buy a used Ford Transit 250 148” long body cargo with medium or high roof a.s.a.p. The primary use will be camping and general travel. I simply do not have $13k for a professional van build with all the “bells and whistles”. Simplicity in style is basic to me. I have friends with carpenter skills, and I have watched RV construction videos religiously for years. I feel I can install insulation and flooring with a little bit of “manpower” help. Additionally, there is an RV dealership close by that can install the electrical and plumbing, a window and 2 roof fans.

My dealer here in G'ville, SC has confirmed delivery of my Beyond 22RB and begin walk-thru 29-Sep and watching this video was great to see the in depth work involved. When folks cannot understand why a B Van is so expensive and you see what all goes into it, you then understand. Spending my whole career with Uniroyal/BFG/Michelin and spent so much time in every plant from Canada to Mexico in all our factories, I always love to see 'How It's Made" tours of other products. I really respect Nick in what he is accomplishing with Coachman B Division and as Francois Michelin always stated, "The Customer Is the True Boss" and you strive to Meet or Exceed the Customers Expectation. I do feel my $$$ investment is with a great company and look forward to traveling in a Quality Van. Thank you Hank & Lola for this video. NOw I am really curious as to what tricks Nick might have on making the twins into a full size as that will be the first mod we will 'have" to do :-)

I’ve probably watched an extensive number of hours to learn as much as I can about class b camper vans. I’ve seen both of you in many many videos separately and together. By far, this is the most informative video I’ve seen, the honest and open tour of the facility from start to finish, the extra tidbits of intel from solar panels to reflective materials used. The fact that you guys are truly listening to customers and adjusting I think is truly something special. I was so impressed … thanks you guys , truly appreciate this.

I have a 24A ordered and pleased with the information of this video that assured me of making the right decision. I am 68 yrs old and just sold my 40 foot Class A to downsize to this unit.

You are so right about taking care of units that are sitting. Keep 'em on pavement, drive them around the block every 2 weeks, cycle the systems if the temp is above freezing. I wish used RV dealers cared enough to do this because it has been my experience that most of them are so lazy they only look at a unit when some has said they want to come down and see it or they put in out for show. They will get ice in them in the winter as well as the little bastards are looking for a place to nest. IF I was dropping 150k+++ I would be gone when I saw the first mouse turd because that means they have been in the unit ... every where... and probably in the walls, engine etc.. NFG. I can't imagine leaving my RV parked in the winter for 6 months either behind the house or at a RV storage. In the spring, you have to first try to start it and then second find a way to get the rodents out. No thank you. I have my RV beside my home and I have traps in it and check them every day. Probably catch 10 mice a winter in a 35' class A. However, if you have traps where they seem to get in (the firewall) then they are dead right away and don't mess around to much. Then every two weeks on a sunny day day I drive it 40 km and if it is above freezing, I will cycle the slides and the leveling jacks. Nothing is guaranteed or perfect, but doing this costs almost nothing and then in the spring I can spend my money camping instead of in the shop.

HI Hank I like how Nick is trying to put the best product out there I don't mind playing a little extra for it after all people tend to keep the RV for a long time and most of them are not handyman they don't want to buy a RV and end up fixing it on the road they should be enjoying driving it on the road and the places they visit not worrying about what items are going to break down next 😮 they should be enjoy the trip not worried about the RV will fall apart on the road 😢 I don't have a coachmen's RV yet but it will my first choice ❤ on the bathroom I have a suggestion most people buying a RV are older people like me 😢 and our knees are getting stiff so it's hard to bend it I know the bathroom needs a high edge to keep the water inside but if he can find a solution to have the lower edge and keep water in 😂 Winnebago's roam I like how it has that big bathroom door and that looks easy for people get in and out 😂 the battery I am glad he is using the company battery and safety is a main issue with the battery I had watched some video of Chinese EV just started to burn because they use the cheapest battery for their EV and people got burned to death because they didn't have any safety standards for the battery and what is so sad are the EV manufacturers denied any wrong doing and blem every thing on the driver's error 😢 just last year The hawei phone company came out with an EV the CEO was bragging how advanced technology their EV has during the press conference few months later a family was in the new EV and it hits a truck on the freeway and ev started to burn all four of them burned into crispy sticks including a four years old boy and his father 😱 people were trying to get them out but the door handles were in recess positions It supposed to Pop out in the emergency but it didn't and people can't get the handle to open the door 😢 so everyone in the EV die the boy's mother complaining on line few hours later on how Huawei EV killed her husband and her son plus her brother 😱😭 basically she lost the whole family 😅😨 later she got contacted by the company lawyers and wanted her to cancel the complaint she won't do that but later her boss called her told her if she doesn't do it she can stay home forever and not go to work 😱 and there are some Chinese want on social media trying to support her but they All got a letter from the lawyers telling them stop spreading the rumors because police have not finished the investigation about the accident 😅 later It comes out with an official statement 😅 It blem the manufacturer for making the chassis and the Bosch for the emergency brake system failures it blem every one except for himself 😂 and now Chinese are trying to export their bombs to the USA and EU for real cheap price I am not going to buy an EV right now even Tesla only because the battery technology is not good for a long distance drive 😅 if I do buy one I would have a Tesla I rather die in a expensive caffeine than a cheap one 😅 I have mentioned it for the banch seat model if the engineer can figure a way for the back not lay flat but flip it to other side so people can face the back door when they are wide open to face a beautiful sun set or a beach full of beautiful women with bikini 😂 with the screen down and I have a good telephoto lenses to take some pictures 😂😜 I just need to leve my wife at home 😂😮 that will take some engineering to get it to work

Thank you Hank and Lola for this tour of the Coachmen factory, it is very informative. I saw many class B vans and decided on the Nova, the floor plan and the interior design was what sold me, however what is "under the hood" is concerning. The electrical wiring in the electrical compartment is a mess, it's a spaghetti of unlabeled wires which makes it almost impossible to troubleshoot, this doesn't speak well of the Coachmen quality control. You should pass this on to Nick.

Another advantage of a Transit chassis and drive train is its serviceability and Ford's service network. If one breaks down in a Mercedes then perhaps, maybe, the next town will have a Mercedes dealer where you can get it serviced. But if the Ford breaks down then most likely for sure the next town will have a Ford dealership that can service the Transit.

Will Hank this is an excellent video on coachmen RV and I think Nick really cares about his products and customers he would listen to suggestions and improve the RV and this video pretty much makes up my mind to get a coachmen RV not because he used quality products and he knows his products from his explanation of products like the cozy wrap the batteries why he chose that brand of battery and that makes me feel better to have lithium batteries in the RV and My biggest worry is will it starts fires by itself 😅

Thank you for the information. I want engine, powertrain performance and 5k tow capability at a good price. I don't need power doors, fancy lights, or fancy woods. I want a hardy vehicle that will stand the test of time and use, not pretty for the park. I'm an "older" Gal and still like some stealth as well. As an old school diesel mechanic, I like the dual axle. My only real decision will be Ford vs Dodge chassis. I'm in the pre-purchase mode right now, trying to find what will work for me. I'm retiring in 3 years, but want my Class B now.

Really interesting to see this. Impressive facility. Always confusing for a moment when someone says they rout wires until I remember that they probably mean that they route the wires. They rout the panels but route the wires. “Rout” like in “grout”. “Route” like “routine”. Think the first time I noticed anyone mixing them up must have been mid ‘80s. Now it’s everywhere. 😕

Great tour of Coachman. Would like a lift bed option in the campers to increase storage space.

Coachman, please, please, please...make an optional plan with a compost or cassette toilet for those of who don't want to deal with a black tank,.

That's why Dodge wins: wider body, flat floor, a lot more room to put batteries and tanks under the floor, much more fuel efficient, much easier to drive and park, much easier to repair, much better turning radius and so on. It's just a much better rv platform to begin with hands down.

I am an old retired electrician and one thing I know is, if the wiring is not neat, pretty even, it’s not right. Look around the panel area, the wiring should look like a freeway system, not loose or hanging. All wire’s should be color coded and well labeled at both ends. When wires go through metal, good grommets are a must. Vans vibrate, bolted connections deserve lock-tight. Shrink-wrap should cover all splices. Cheap hardware won’t last. A grounding strap ( this is a tough, woven metal strip that hangs down from the chassis and drags along the ground eliminating any static electricity buildup) will help protect your electronics. All systems must be grounded. Speaking of ground, ‘Ground Fault Interrupting’ (G.F.I.) outlets will save your life. For kitchen, bathroom and outside use, this is a must! Best of luck to us all. P.S. Sorry if I rambled on, maybe you guys should hire me!

We test drove the Mercedes B+ and it was excellent. Curious if this is the only one we will find that has a nice ride to it. Total difference betweeen it and one of the Ford C that we drove.

Thank You, we shot this on Wednesday I think, we got lucky and were able to get a lot of it in while the folks working in the plant were on downtime (lunch etc)

A great tour Hank and Lola. Nick, are you able to purchase furniture components from Coachmen? Eg: I have a 24Q but would like to put in the workstation from the 24A. I was planning to build somethng, but as you said in the video, Coachmen has already worked it out. Thanks

The key design concept if you are going to do an unwarranted DIY build is make it easy to take apart so if you have a problem it can be easily rectified. Since this warranty is not transferable, if you’re buying a used van you should not pay much more for a factory built conversion than for a well done build from a small builder or DIY

I have a five year degree in architecture and even I couldn’t follow his explanation about the insulation on the van and I a’m not sure how to spell it but I can;t even find cosiwrap. Lots of people say you have to have an air gap toward the outside before you have your reflective surface. Is he claiming that’s a myth?

Good tour content. The RB models need a couple lap belts on at least one of the twin beds

Great video! Probably the best factory tour video I've seen so far. Did I hear correctly that Nick had a possible way to join the two twin beds in your floorplan?
