[@Ultramobility]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@ruthleclere2596]

The more I look at this van…..the more I love it!it makes sense

[@Ultramobility]

awww thanks Ruth!

[@nancybarr5049]

I’ve had my Panoramic for almost two years now and I am still loving it!!! It is such a great design and SO easy to drive. I’m jealous of the new, quiet AC though. I’d love to upgrade that, as I often travel in warmer climates. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I love mine! Safe travels!

[@Ultramobility]

Nancy there’s no better class b in the market! Have fun and safe travels!

[@joanmcerlean7158]

Such an elegant design. Love the quality and functionality. Thanks for the tour. Look forward to following you again.

[@Ultramobility]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@Graymanvanlife]

I love the versatility in this rig. that table dual functionality.

[@Ultramobility]

Love the table and the lounge. We spend a lot of time in the lounge and it is comfortable and versatile. Two people can work at it with the extension, you can kick you feet up on the cab seats or the bench seat and watch movies. It really is well thought out.

[@donaldkoval8278]

Congratulations on your new van, Neil. It looks beautiful in the black on black and the interior is gorgeous as always. We got our panoramic in May 2021 and have travelled from coast to coast in Canada and continue to love our van with really no mechanical issues whatsoever. We did upgrade our head unit to an Alpine 9 inch screen that allows us to have Apple CarPlay and Google maps etc. and that is a big improvement over the original Ram unit. Looks much like your 2022 chassis but we wish we had the newer steering wheel and upgraded safety features. We did go ahead and get the Rolef front and side window coverings and we are happy that we did. We can get them up and down in just a few minutes and they provide a more spacious interior. They store easily in the cupboard above the driver’s seat, which we call the “pizza oven”. As well they are a little insulated as you mentioned, and the side windows have screens in them so you can zip down the fabric part and leave the van window open to allow better ventilation in hot weather. Just an option for some of your viewers. We are sure you are going to love your van as much as we do. Next year we hope to make it to Newfoundland and perhaps the following year to the US West Coast to visit all of the fantastic seats down in your area. If you are ever travelling in Prince Edward County, Ontario be sure to look us up!

[@Ultramobility]

all great suggestions. thank you!

[@richardburguillos3118]

Nice layout. Congratulations on the new rig. Can’t wait to hear how it goes using all the features. Best wishes for a Happy Holiday and an Amazing New Year!

Congratulation for your wise choice! After having enjoyed very much our Pleasure Way for seven years, we took delivery of our Panoramic last July, and we totally agree with your comments. It is a well tought, designed and constructed RV. The owner of this company and his team are also incredible. They value above all quality of work and client service. Enjoy your toy now!

[@Ultramobility]

phil and panoramic are the best! quality on par or exceeds pleasureway.

So nice to see you again. As always, a thorough well thought out tour.

[@Ultramobility]

Thank you kindly!

[@danieldubois9429]

Merci!

[@BeyondtheFern]

I love the Panoramic design and build, I have a Coachmen Beyond C floor plan (similar to the Pleasureway floorplan) and totally agree about not having a permanent bed. I actually removed the couch and added 2 permanent twin beds. That was a game change for me, especially when I travel with a second person. How do you like the Panoramic bed for two people? Is it hard to get in and out of? What I wish I had was the front lounge like the Panoramic. That is such a great functional space.

[@kpeter02]

Congards on the new Panoramic. I've been watching your channel since you left Quebec in your PW, heading towards CA, and then all the reviews of the other RVs. I'm the guy that suggested to you , follow up and check out Panoramic and Phillip.

[@Ultramobility]

hi ken! thank you and merry christmas!

[@wanderfully4724]

Wowowow panoramic is a step above clearly! Wonder if they will ever build on a transit.. hmm

[@questioner1596]

The permanent bed makes the most sense in my opinion. Not only are you unlikely to convert it to a couch regularly, it would also make the garage harder to access if there were bench structures in the way. When building out my van, making a permanent bed allowed it to be higher, making more storage space underneath. If it were a couch too, it would likely be lower.

[@Ultramobility]

nice! completely agree!

[@mtbgo7860]

Congrats! Love that van. Hope they offer power upgrades down the road. When we RV, propane is not wanted. 45 gallons of water and 10,000w hours are needed.

[@Ultramobility]

wow! that’s a ton of lithium!

[@fredzuccarelli]

I'm soooo envious!!!! I'll definitely order with the 400AH!!! 2 QUESTIONS: Does the bed still fold up if needed? And did it come with an alternator charger for the lithium? If yes, brand? Thanks Neil!!!!!

Great video -- so glad to peek inside -- wonderful!! Looking forward to the subsequent videos as always. Happy Travels!!

[@Ultramobility]

beth thank you!

[@CharlieMoger]

Hi Neil, Delighted to see you back at it again. Missed your vids. I'm in the early stages of being in the market for an RV for my birthday next May. I'd originally thought a PW OnTour 2.2 would be a fit because I don't want a diesel-otherwise, I'd lean toward their Plateau FL. Thing is, I H-A-T-E how the OnTour awning sticks out in the front. Looks sloppy to me. I'm a big fan of the ProMaster because of its lower, wider stance. Considered Airstream's Rangeline, but feel it's a little too entry-level for my taste, and have seen multiple negative reviews about the build quality. All roads, it seems, lead to the Panoramic. Love the look, the big windows, the cabinetry, the bathroom... But here's where my brakes come on with Panoramic: Their website is a hot mess. Let's start with basics: How much does it cost? There's no pricing I can find. What are the options? Is it all Lithium, or is there a generator option? The most recent video on their site is a year old, and the site's product images are two years old (e.g. six-drawer kitchen instead of three). Do they not sell in the US? It appears they don't. Would this be an international purchase? The PW site is clear and well organized: I can see pricing, options, etc. Can you point me to answers to any of these questions? Is there a reason their marketing isn't keeping up? I write for a living; this is a perfect example of what I tell my clients: a confused customer won't buy. Call me confused. Sorry for the rant. Thanks for your updates. Figured you might know where I could find the answers.

[@Ultramobility]

no a problem. you are right. i can help some. here is a video on all their options plus what i opted for: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZO6pIlvgsmeqNk base is around $130k and goes up to around $160k-$165k fully loaded you can purchase in the us like i did. just call them and place your order and deposit. they will keep you informed of wheee you are in the build line. they are kind of like tesla in that they have a long wait period. maybe 12 months. they will ship the van to you when it is completed.

[@CharlieMoger]

@@Ultramobility What a nice guy for sending that. Thanks. Maybe I missed it, but it looks like Panoramic doesn't have a generator option. Does it charge while driving? Or, just off the Solar. What's been your experience with recharging? We live in Texas. So, chances are AC will matter and I'd like the option of being able to run off a generator.

[@Ultramobility]

that’s right, no genny option. yes, it uses the standard alternator and solar. i have not yet dropped below 65% on my battery level and i use my rig just like home. I’ll test AC this summer. it is a huge power draw.

[@CharlieMoger]

@@Ultramobility It's a little odd. I got an almost immediate reply to a Contact Us form-not an automated reply. I sent back a question but have not received a reply. Going on faith based on your recommend that these guys are solid.

[@Ultramobility]

they better be! i just spent mucho bucks on a panoramic!

[@cathysupp9493]

IMO this is the better looker cousin to the Pre-22 TravatoG Fixing the 'bang-yer-hip' table, extending the gally, a window in the bathroom! Yes plz and a nice big bed!......they hit it out of the park on design quality and function Best to you in your travels in the coming year

[@Ultramobility]

cathy, agree! yes and the build quality is so much higher. it is reprehensible how much winnebago charges now and while only standing by their product for a year.

[@applewood8078]

Love your tour, how much does it cost the way you showed it here? And how does this Panoramic hold up in freezing temperatures, since it is from Quebec, i hope it is fully winterized !? Thanks for answering those 2 topics

[@allankawakami]

Beautiful RV! Glad to see you back online.

[@Ultramobility]

many thanks allan!

[@danieldubois9429]

An excellent review of features. I appreciate your honnest comments about usage and relevence of some equipments, particularly about the Truma cooler/heater. It convinced me we should go with this option. Would have liked an evaluation of the wi-fi hub, understanding how it connects to network. In any case, thanks for taking the time of preparing such good reviews.

[@Ultramobility]

My pleasure! thank you!

[@stephenstringer3689]

Good to see you posting again and you have a beautiful van. Just wondering what the maximum amount of lithium that you can order? Even 630ah would only last about 5 1/2 hours in the south. You're lucky with those California temps...have fun with your new toy!

[@Ultramobility]

400ah.

[@Ultramobility]

thank you and merry christmas!

[@PleasantUrsus]

I would be really interested in your comparison between Panoramic and Pleasureway Plateau FL.

[@Ultramobility]

ok that’s a good one bc i love the fl!

[@esthers5772]

Congrats Neil. I’ve been looking forward to this video for a while. I love the layout and all the convenient features. I think the 11K upgrade was money well spent. My question is was there a no propane option?

[@Ultramobility]

i don’t believe there’s a no propane option. personally i like the option of being able to use propane. it’s very efficient and inexpensive and versatile. but when i can i use the all electric heating mode on the truma combi.

[@dhirajjdewan8069]

Very nice RV! Thanks for the was feedback on the lounge/bed, I was considering that type of unit also because I didn’t want a full time bed. But your right the sofa is very uncomfortable to sleep on long term. Once the RV craze doves under control, might go and get a Leisure RV.

[@Ultramobility]

you’re more than welcome! i want to help people get the right rv for their needs so i share my experience. i’ve owned 3 class b vans from 3 different manufacturers.

Never heard of this brand before? I have a Winnebago Solis PX. The interior layout is the same except I have extra storage at the back. The Panoramic is so much more luxurious and because I have the generator for the AC I have very little clearance. Might consider an upgrade to yours in a few years.

[@Ultramobility]

very cool. yes there is no generator on my panoramic. i opted for the large lithium battery package.

[@LJ-jq8og]

EXCELLENT VIDEO 💪 LOVE ❤ the Panorama too !

[@Ultramobility]

aww thank you!

[@jeffvpoole]

Thanks Neil! You sold me on the Panoramic. Do you have to wait for the build out or are there RVs ready to buy and take on the road? What Ram chassis is this built on? 150 , 250…? Great clean and well thought out van. Perfect for my needs! How’s the road noise while driving? Thanks Again. What’s the price point on this and how many feet long is it?

[@Ultramobility]

He may have a cancelled order that you could swoop in and buy. You would need to call them at the number at their website and inquire. Otherwise the wait time is around 12 months. The Panoramic is built on the 3500 chassis. Road noise is good inside. If you get the all -terrain tires like I have expect some additional noise. It is around $175k and is 20’11” long.

[@krhode5185]

When you get to the review, I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on drivability, particularly how it compares with the MB chassis. what terrain would you take this on? How about parking? Regarding front curtains, do you find condensation on the windshield becomes an issue when overnighting? How about moisture on the window in the bathroom? Does the shower drain well?

[@Ultramobility]

please see my short on drivability of the new ram chassis. i wouldn’t take this too far off road. not made for it. not enough ground clearance. parking is super easy. fits in any space. moisture is not a problem unless it’s really cold out. condensation on windows but in the morning the heater clears it up.

[@marlenen6130]

I think an electric blanket is the way to go if you have power, however most blankets are energy suckers. If you look for the ones that have the “Safe and warm technology” they have a simple dial, auto off after 8 hrs and very thin wires that you can’t feel. They don’t get hot and cold spots because it inverts the AC power into 12v which is much safer and way more efficient on power. My daughter said her old electric blanket she used in her van sucked her power, but the new twin blanket I got her uses only a 1/4 of the power and is very comfortable heat. The king one we have for our house comes with duel controls. I had to type in “safe and warm technology” to find my daughter the twin, or you just get the others.

[@Ultramobility]

good tip thank you!

[@charlevoix418]

Great van, maybe just add that all the spotlights are mounted on a track that allows to move them any place you want, add extras and even add other 12 volts items.

[@Ultramobility]

good point! thank you for pointing that out.

[@dancoughlin3331]

Neil you were the first KZbinr to place importance on the cargo capacity issue that most RV reviews or walk through just skim over. So what's the word on your van fully loaded with water etc? How much is left for food, clothing, bedding etc?

[@Ultramobility]

such a good question! mine is around 1400 lbs i believe. i’ll double check. it might be less. any less would be unfortunate. i’ll talk about occc in a future video. good suggestion

I like a lot of what I saw on the video of the Paneramic. I would swap the space for the pantry with the closet that way I can put a couple suits and a long dress for my wife. The closet could have larger slide out drawers as a pantry like I have at home. If the jump seats lumbar area would slide forward 6-8 inches like the Rialta and Hyundai Genesis doe on their back seat.

thanks for sharing your thoughts! there is a wardrobe closet and you can take out a shelf but it still may not be long enough for you. It’s in the galley.

@@Ultramobility I would convert the waldrobe closet into my pantry with slide out shelves like I have in my pantry at home.

yes. each time i’ve sold the previous van and then shelled out additional $$ out of pocket. this time it wasn’t so bad because i went from a mercedes to a promaster.

[@cj9667]

It’s a beauty for sure! You can see the quality of workmanship throughout the entire rig. I was brought up on..buying the best quality available instead of skimping and having to buy it again..thus costing you headaches and spending twice as much. The garage area vertical space could be increased with a temp shelf..like rails. Instead of having to stack things. We always had Weber baby q stashed in our RV for those feel like a bbq for dinner moods. Envious for sure! The wait time is the drawback..not the cost! Very nice Neil..thanks for taking the time!

I believe the bed flips up and is held there with straps, so you can lock bikes in van when needed. Or carry small paddle craft like kayaks or paddleboards. I saw Phil demonstrate flipping the bed up in one of Panoramic's videos on their KZbin channel. Neil will correct me if I am wrong.

[@rvnut1133]

Never heard of the Panoramic until now, and I think this is the best layout I have seen. I can't find one thing I would change from yours other than I don't like propane but I understand why is needed .

[@Ultramobility]

you’re better off going custom build.

When you do your next video on this, can you show the drawers in the back and how much was lost due to the 4 batteries? I know there is no bottom drawer but what about the other two? On his video Phillip showed the inverter on the bottom but he never opened the 2 drawers. Thanks. Also I need to look into mods on the garage area to add some shelving to better organize everything.

Neil, I noticed that the pantry now has openings in the back. Older model did not. Why the change, Is that so you can reach in from the bed and get stuff?

[@boorayin2773]

My biggest issue with this camper is that I'm 6' and I found my feet up against the window when I laid down in one. I know it's 74" from side-to-side, but as we humans tend to like to use pillows, using one takes up some of that space...you're down lower on the bed...and your feet are then touching windows. I believe that the ProMaster has the widest interior - so this kinda stinks that I don't that I'll ever be able to get to take advantage of this layout that I'd like.

[@Ultramobility]

yes you’re right. it is 74” but taller folks need extra room unless you want your head and feet touching the windows. a different layout may work better for you.

Do you miss the multiplex integrated control panels? HVAC, tank, water, fans, lights etc all on touch screens? That was a big draw for the PW I bought a PW Lexor in 2020 (thanks for the reviews) and I really like those panels.

[@Ultramobility]

Not really. Please see my short: kzbin.info5xDDrn-m3ok?feature=share

[@ratman626]

@@Ultramobility Thanks What do you think of PWs current products?

[@Ultramobility]

@@ratman626 ummm i think most of their products are conservative and old. i reserve judgement on the Rekon. it looks interesting but candidly all these manufacturer built adventure 4x4 vehicles are kind of a joke in my opinion.

@@Ultramobility The 2019 PW Lexor is my first RV. I’m generally very pleased. The bed has been down the entire time I’ve had it (since Apr 2020). I wish it was higher up so I could fit more in the back, maybe a folding bike. I had a long time to work on it, and made many upgrades - LED headlights, high end stereo and navigation - the 10” Pioneer, magnets to hold the cabinet doors shut tight. Without those, I’d definitely agree that it would be tired. I’ve put 15k miles on it with my road dog, who loves it so much he jumps in every time I open the door. Thanks for the Class B 101 lessons on your channel.

Hey Neil, do you know why Ram doesn’t use dual rear wheels on their 3500 unit? I wonder what difference that makes in weights, etc.

[@Ultramobility]

I don’t know why. Perhaps because it’s front wheel drive? I don’t know. I had a dually Sprinter. I didn’t really understand the benefits of it when I owned it. My 144 inch wheelbase sprinter which wasn’t dual wheel in the rear handled just as well if not better but then again it is 3 feet shorter.

Where have you been ?Been a long time . .

[@Ultramobility]

yes. i was recuperating from burnout. i think i’m ready to jump back in. tweaked format. i hope the new content is just as useful and entertaining. we’ll see!

[@xiaorui1978]

Neil. Did you encounter any quality issues or need any repairs so far? If you do how can you repair it without a local dealer? I am debating between airstream rangeline and panoramic. The latter is so much nicer. But without a local dealer service may be difficult. Thanks.

[@Ultramobility]

congrats! your question will be featured in a youtube short. look out for it!

[@ReedWaite]

The 'permanent' bed actually folds up should you need to haul things in back of van or with long items through the front passageway.

[@Ultramobility]

yes! forgot to show that. thank you!

[@OspreyFlyer]

Very Nice 👍

[@Ultramobility]

BLOOPER ALERT: At 31:50 when you are speaking about the manual awning tool... you said "Pleasure Way" and not "Panoramic". Happy Holidays to you and yours.

I want a Benz 4x4 - nice van

[@Ultramobility]

yes 4x4 is nice. make sure you’ve got the ground clearance!

[@steveroper194]

The videos detail an extremely well designed and fairly competitive price point, HOWEVER, we won't be buying a Panoramic. Delivery dates are over a year out and the "refundable" deposit is $25,000 for an order. Maybe the wait time could be something we could manage, but sending a company $25k to get in line - too many things can happen over the course of 15 months.

[@Ultramobility]

Yes, it’s a hefty deposit for sure.

Many class “B” Vans are wired by amateurs. Wiring is an art, both ends of every wire should be labeled and color coded. All holes should have a plastic protector around them. We called them “Gozintas”. The wiring should be neat, beautiful even, pride shows.
