This RV Runs BOTH Airs on only 30amp!! 2024 Delta 292RL Travel Trailer by Alliance RV

[@wushock92]

I REALLY like what Alliance did with this unit. 5th wheel features in a towable. I can see myself pulling this with a 1-ton with the Harley in the bed of the truck. Hot/cold rating knocks it out of the park for me. Time to start playing the lotto. 😆

[@brianm1916]

I like this a lot. It's the best iteration of this floorplan bar none. From the white AC covers to the lights in the cabinets. They nailed it!

Thanks Nerd!! I really like the LED lighting under the cabinets in the kitchen slide lights up the bottom interior of the cabinets.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

TY! Little Touches like that are nice

[@vickisteege946]

Many of these RVs are near perfect. What would put them over the top is ALL have W/D hookups available in either the wardrobe or pantry. Let the consumer decide if they want to have a W/D or use it for storage. At least the wiring and plumbing would be there. I can't imagine it would be that more expensive to run the lines. Why cannot this be done?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

It's not that it _can't_ be done. It just wasn't. It'll add a few bucks sure but it's not impossible. As to why it wasn't done? I cannot speak on the factory's behalf. perhaps a member of their team could provide better insights

[@tallcntryboy71]

I was just going to ask you about the w/d prep that was mentioned at the beginning of this video description and where it is. I'm guessing that was an added typo?! 🤦

[@MikeStJohn-du5ue]

This is excellent! A couple nitpiking is the open storage in the bath and only 20lb LP tanks. I think this is the best organized pass through storage I have seen. Even have a clip to hold the socket for the legs. Battery shutoff is up out of the way and the picnic table is well supported in the ceiling.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Alliance is really good at those inexpensive details. They don't tend to skimp on those 5 cent clips to make life easier

[@frankstaltari4682]

@JoshtheRVNerd, love your videos man, big fan!. Curious about the wood doors and cabinetry as far as material. Solid? Sticker? I didn't see mention of it. Absolutely love this tt. If you could give me any info I'd be very appreciative. #nerdherd

Love this layout. You could so easily trade one of those sofas out for a work desk and work remotely too.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

That's a great idea!

[@dennishannum7199]

Josh another fantastic video! Wife and I are debating between this one and the 294RK. Not sure which one yet. hopefully by the time Rv show season gets here we will have our minds made up. I am sure we will be rewatching your videos on both of them. You are the only one we watch for rv reviews. You are very informative and give your honest opinion. That is very hard to find now a days. Now I think it is time to find myself some Nerd Herd merch. Really would like to get some stickers and such. Keep up the Great work man! Look forward to your monthly video soon.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I personally *really* like the 294 layout but if I were traveling, then I'd go with one of these. Rear kitchens are some of my favorites but best used for short trips and destinations since all your storage bounces behind axles Another key factor to consider: Window placement between the two

Hey Josh, Looking for this exact floorplan in a 30' travel trailer with bathroom access while traveling. Center island is nice but not a deal breaker with more counter space in the kitchen as a trade off.

[@stevez340]

Beautiful 5th wheel residential looking close to perfect floorplan loaded with quality standard features in a traditional towable travel trailer👍but once again it was very disappointing to see a cheap Dollar Store 4” fart fan in the bathroom of an upscale RV😩

[@craigwilliams1073]

Excellent usage of all spaces!

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Glad you think so!

[@briand8002]

With a few changes in this unit like where the pantry is, it looks like my Grand Design Imagine 2970RL. I took that 40in tv out of mine and with an adjustment to the tv adapter, I installed a 43in. In my unit. Even the counter tops are the same. In the bathroom same shower, same cubbies, same sink, but I have a slide door on the bathroom. The decor is also the same, same storage in the bedroom.

[@evakayarflin5548]

This unit does look like the grand design 2970 I have been looking at. How well do you like your GD 2970rl? Looking to down size from a fifth wheel.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Yeah similar layouts for sure. They overlap pretty hard with each having a few little unique features the other lacks

[@briand8002]

Nice though. It's cool they can run both airs on 30, mine you need fifty.@@JoshtheRVNerd

[@briand8002]

Personally I love this unit, I just wish GD would have put a larger stove like the 21" instead of the 17". I also stuck a 43" Samsung TV in it replacing that 40 " Roku, not much for Roku. Just had to relocate the bracket. It's like having a 5th wheel though and I don't have to walk through the bathroom. LOL Easy to tow, I have a 3/4 ton Ram Diesel.@@evakayarflin5548

[@DaddyTux-de3iq]

I just picked up my Delta 292RL this week. Looks great and actually was ordered with three AC’s…The TV size and built in speaker is really cool. Oddly - the kitchen sink does not drain unless an electric pump is utilized. I’ve never seen something like this - have you?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

That is news to me on the sink..

[@mcgee1011ify]

We've just discovered that too. So frustrating

[@sitchad]

Forget the guests, this is a superb couplers TT. Alliance is really doing some great things with TT to match their 5th wheels. Hey when traveling you don't fix lunch, you buy it. 3/4 ton needed.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

TY!

[@robertlittle8672]

Would like to see a hanging light over the island, might as well give it the same look qs the other similar floor plans,it DOES GIVE MORE AMBIANCE and a classier look. Just my opinion, for what its worth.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

That would look nice!

[@philblock]

This was one of our finalists when we bought at the Hershey show a few months ago. We wound up with the Bullet 287RLS instead tho since it had a few things we wanted, and wasn't BROWN. The delta was awesome, but didn't have certain things that were deal breakers we wanted for quite a bit more than what we bought. We are getting ready to pick up our new RV this weekend and are super excited. Can't wait to see your video on the model we did get. Great video and thanks for covering it!

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

"and wasn't BROWN" lolololol

[@philblock]

@@JoshtheRVNerd i don't hate brown, but it's a bit overwhelming in some RVs.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

fair @@philblock

[@alexanderclabo3109]

What features made you choose the Bullet? I’m deciding between these same two right now. @philblock

[@philblock]

@@alexanderclabo3109 bullet had power stabilizers, better solar options(we got the 440i w/inverter), we LOVED the interior colors, it's about a foot and a half shorter, came with a booth dinette and not chairs/table standard, convection microwave standard and it was over $7k LESS than the delta. Only way to get power stabilizers on the delta 292rl was to spend an additional $3k for auto leveling. Both were 50amp, 2 ACs, heated underbelly. Delta has tank heaters but for basically 10k less than a similarly equipped delta we got 440w solar, 2k inverter, dinette we preferred, WDH, a max air fan for the bathroom(w/rain cover), and a full 3 camera system from furrion. Build quality didn't seem any better to me, some materials were nicer in the delta but we're not living in it. We got torsion axels, GY endurance tires, standard too. Was just a better value, even tho we liked the centered stove and kitchen window, and floor flush slides better on the delta. If it was a $5k difference, it would have been a harder choice but we still liked the look of the Bullet better.

[@SuperZpowell]

Folding laundry aggressively. You are hilarious Josh

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

See.. that's what I tell my wife _all the time_ but she's not so convinced..

[@gvlowe2]

I wish Delta's had an option for a King Bed. I know its not for everyone but for some people, its an option they would prefer.

[@geoffreyheitz8942]

I will second that request for a king option.

[@lewanderson9381]

Josh, you didn't mention one of Alliance's best offerings - the slideout buttons in the front bay! You told us about the remote awning buttons, but didn't say anything about the slideeout controls there.

[@MRHEAT20]

Great review- thanks 🍻

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

[@TroyGWarner]

Love this layout. The biggest concern we had watching this was the proximity of the TV to the stove. Frying anything? Grease will get into the TV, “You’re NOT the one that I want.”

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

[@jamiecox6357]

I love the way Alliance builds their rvs. If only they had a true outdoor kitchen model I would buy one today. And I mean a kitchen with a real sink not a hose and a dog dish, that is not a kitchen. And if anyone wants to run dual a/c units on 30 amp service in any rv just install a soft start unit on them.

[@neilfromclearwaterfl81]

Been running Dual AC on 30 amps in my 90's Winnebago with the Powerline System without the need for a soft start or any other modifications. They came capable of this from the factory. Just turn everything on and the Powerline System that was Standard Equipment would orchestrate things so both AC would run simultaneously and then on those occasions where you ran a microwave, hair dryer, toaster, coffee pot, etc, etc would automatically turn the electric water heater off, switch the refrigerator to propane, turn the fans to a lower speed, etc, etc and only turn off the second AC unit when there was absolutely no other choice. Perhaps I've been spoiled by already having this for around 30 years now however its not really anything new or cutting edge. 20 amp was the one AC at a time limit even back then. Best!

[@paulweiler6494]

Boy this would be an awesome 5th wheel

[@michaelmccrite9675]

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Avenue and Paradigm from Alliance both make a FW version of that

[@RickBarber-x6c]

We love these new trailers. Trying to decide between the 292rl or the rk. Leaning toward the rl for a couple reasons. Having dump valves at both ends of the rk is a major pain for weekend trips where there are no sewer hookups at the site. Have to dump the pooper and wash it out then unhook and hook the grays at the rear and dump. People behind me will not be happy. On both units the bathroom fan is not reachable without a stool for anyone under 5'7" which is everyone in my family except me. We just crack the vent in our current camper and the fan has a wall switch. What would wall switch for the fan cost while they are building? $5 maybe. Can't upgrade to a fan switch without tearing out the walls. Also even a small shower seat would be great. My wife is a leg shaver thank goodness but not a contortionist. Just a couple of small changes and this could be the greatest game changer in a while. This camper is closest I've seen to exactly what we want for a final seniors camper. Super nice, super functional. Get after em Josh! Rick

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

👍🏻 Ty!

[@321fulltime5]

Josh, I love the fact that this can run both ACs on 30 amp. I'm confused as to why more cannot do this. I have a 1999 Itasca Suncruiser 32T on the Ford chassis that runs both ACs on 30 amp with the ability to run other items. This is 25 year old technology that seems better than what's offered today. Why is that?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Older A/C units often had integrated soft-starts because older parks sometimes only had 20amp service let alone 30 Over time parks upgraded and supplies removed the integrated soft starts from their air units to keep costs down. That became the norm Over time more dual air units became popular as rvs grew larger and average annual temps crept up

[@donaldbailey5576]

Beautiful trailer! I say get rid of the behind the TV storage and make it so the TV can be pushed all the way back when not in use.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

TY. Not a terrible idea. Could allow for counter space as well

[@janehargis9301]

Well done but still shades of brown. Would’ve been nice to see light cabinets whether it be light wood tones or painted. The cabinetry kind of overpowers the space and to me it makes it look smaller. So many great features here and Alliance is already establishing a great reputation. I’ll be spending lots of time in my RV of course and waking up to that décor daily wouldn’t be my favorite thing. Maybe they’ll consider a lighter décor option down the road.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Thank you for sharing

[@lbrumleve]

Like it a lot.

[@Technocrat.]

How thick is the tow frame. I've heard of some people going over a bumpy road and hitch frame where the front of the camper bends down, as the frame to thin to handle weight and bump. Just curious.😊

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Apologies I am not provided with frame specs

[@321fulltime5]

Hi, Josh. We love this floorplan but need an accessible refrigerator in tow mode and under 35 feet. Any suggestions?

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I display road mode in all my videos with slides and chapter mark that section. Some builders will have things adjusted how you're seeing but offhand I cannot recall which is which until I see them

[@Hazwaste63]

Positives: The usual "RLS" layout except with a loaded 1000# hitch weight, leaving plenty of my 3000# cargo rating (and my bed) for other things. Kitchen prep area is great with that pantry out of the way. No kitchen toe-jammer. Negatives: My F250 is a 7.3 gasser, and navigating gas stops along the road is sometimes already a challenge with my 26' TT, would be a real issue with 34' of camper. The fridge/freezer is too small. Overall: Definitely considering this for our next TT, along with the 29RL.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

I hope we see more Flying J's out there. They're usually good for having fuel setups for cars, semis, and then people towing RVs all separate

[@wgreenjr81]

I really think Delta is the best implementation of this floorplan. Its minor but the pantry location next to the tv has always kinda bugged my visually, add to that the dual air on 30 amp and the exterior storage size and its an easy pick for me. Curiosity I have though, considering so many (i believe all) Alliance fifth wheels are 101 inch wide body, is there a limitation for travel trailers that prevents it the wider unit? Wondering if there is a mechanical reason or if they wanted to make sure they didn't venture to far outside the lines for their first attempt.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

There's nothing that says trailers can't be wide body. Northwood does it. But it's just not done often very much

[@wgreenjr81]

@@JoshtheRVNerd thanks for the reply

[@robertlittle8672]

Josh, is the oven the small easy bake oven, or the larger 20", tankless waterheater? Love the entertainment area inside, wish they could have put the TV outside like the RK. IS there a large price difference between the two? Seems the Rk was a little smaller. We love them both. Duuuh.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

They use the smaller ovens on these. I believe they are using on-demand water heaters, but a local person. Can double check for you. They can also verify pricing as I’m not in sales and don’t have Price Files in front of me

A little late to the comments, but overall I like this rig. A few questions. 1. Is the ceiling flat or round? 2. What is the actual height in the shower? Being 6’7”, I understand having my head in the skylight, but also don’t want to be hunched over. I’m considering this vs the winnebago voyage 3235.

[@JoshtheRVNerd]

Interior ceiling is 6'9" Linear/Flat Exterior roofline is barreled for water runoff and structural integrity

[@lauragough1174]

Overall a nice rig. 2 ACs are a necessity down here, and being able to run both on 30 amp is outstanding, even with the concessions. If RV manufacturers refused to buy furniture with the thigh-buster USB ports, the furniture mfrs would fix the problem. What size is that oven? If you said, I missed it. As a cranky old broad and former HR pro, I'm not the least bit offended by your quirkiness.
