Tiny B Camper Van Easy to Drive!

[@creationsfromlace6894]

Nova is the best brand! We just bought a 2023 20D (rear twin beds) and LOVE it!

[@carynyonts1129]

I LOVE this van. That bathroom is awesome. As a solo traveler I love the twin beds that can be a sofa and a bed without converting. That's sooo much storage. Dislikes the microwave on the floor pointless I'd rather have a drawer or better yet a proper freezer. Second the fridge is rather small but give and take

[@lemondropkid6175]

I'm hoping they will start giving more options for cooking, personally it's one burner, kettle inside and cooking outside for everything else, except when it's raining. Microwaves come in drawers now (expensive).

[@timgoodsell4053]

Very nice unit. Price point is fantastic relative to the rest of the market. Not an off grid optimized vehicle but most B owners never leave the pavement. Really like it.

[@saylorgirl799]

What IS the price point?

Becky you are the best! You remembered I asked to please show the awning out!! Thank you so so much!

[@Becky_Milarch]

I do remember! 😊

[@csmith9189]

I love this van. I have a 2018 Midwest Automotive Design L4 Daycruiser which is multi use for a Nana who goes to grandkids tournaments and overnights once or twice a year. Mostly I drive family to and from the airport a dozen or more times a year because my van has 7-10 seats. I usually have 3 seats made into a bed where all the luggage is put to and from the airport. The Nova would be perfect for more camping trips. The rear bath is a must. Windows that open and screens are what my van does not have. This van is very easy to drive and park. I’m seriously considering buying the Nova for van life and traveling with friends and family. 👍 to Coachmen!

[@johnstaufferredraven2073]

This is by far my favorite B van!

[@mateocafe45]

Love Becky! She gives great reviews on the Class B Vans.

[@carefulpilgrim]

Matt, I like that you try to be fun yet not overly so, friendly yet not overly talkative, and that you are always respectful towards the ladies, no disrespectful jokes.

[@tevbrannan5885]

Like this model. I didn't think about the running board for my dogs but I did think about it for my bare feet! However I agree, you could put a mat over it. I also agree about disliking the manual adjustments for the seats. Maybe they'll improve that in 2024.

[@bethjordan8106]

I think this is my favorite B van so far. One thing I didn’t see covered is whether there are seatbelts on the bench/bed area. I’m guessing no but just wondering. Great review. Thanks!!

[@smileysun9212]

I would like to know that too if there’s seat belts on the benches & if you can turn it into one big bed. I think the Winnebago’s that has this type of floor plan is that way. I would want a couple of passangers & they can sleep in a tent. I love the twin bed layouts that can turn into one big bed. It’s hard to crawl in an out of bed & climbing over someone to get out when you get older. I wish more RV’s had twin beds. I love the rear bathroom & you can sit to shower but I would want the beds in tbe rear that fold up or take out to haul stuff. I like the same configuration of the bathroom but have it behind the drivers seat where there’s a counter top that folds over the toilet.

[@theresapage1608]

Great video! Matt I love how you are always thinking of how the RV works for your fur baby.

[@Becky_Milarch]

Thank you so much for the support and positive comments!! 🇱🇷💜

[@lyfandeth]

If it is 20' long, it will NOT fit in urban parking spots. Parallel parking spots usually max at 18-19 feet, and parking lots usually are the same. I love that layout, although the beds are still a couple of inches short. But already over 20', it is hard to figure out how to pack anything else in.

[@TheSandyPapers]

Love it when you have Becky on the show!

[@pennylynch4471]

Very nice van! It's so bright and open with all the windows, it doesn't feel so small and claustrophobic. Excellent rear bath. A question- when you were pointing out the sewer hose caddy it seemed like the van sits pretty low. Is it a potential issue? Is it higher than it looks? We like to explore national parks, and have found a few gravel roads, off the beaten path. would potholes be a problem?

[@Studiovette]

[@paula.jackson5463]

Am not a fan of Coachman but this is a winner in my mind and view! The layout, bathroom, fold down sink, solar and just the build blew my mind! Will be looking around for this one!

[@JohnSeitz]

Coachman in the B van segment is top notch. I assume you are thinking of C or travel trailer.

[@paula.jackson5463]

@JohnSeitz no John not just C, rented the Coachman Beyond, and after renting PleasureWay Plateau (now called Ontour) on Transit Frame, I was not impressed with the craftsmanship on the Beyond. But I will temper this with, PW has spoiled me for anything else!

[@JohnSeitz]

@@paula.jackson5463 you are correct PW is a better build by far. Note the Ontour didn’t replace the plateau they make both. And I’d take the Plateau FL hands down. Though the beyond wins for being AWD and having full lithium!

[@paula.jackson5463]

@@JohnSeitz Note the Ontour was originally called the Plateau on the Transit chassis, it has been called Plateau on the Mercedes Chassis for a long time. PW made a whole slug of them for CanaDreams a Canadian RV Rental company up here in the Great White North. As to Lithium, PW has had Lithium for a long time now, they made it real while everyone else is just playing catch up! And the Ontour is available in AWD.

This B van is my all time favorite. Wow. Great floor plan and space! Want it!

[@sandienochs6132]

Coachman has been producing vans with wiring that is just horrible. Check around and behind the fuse box. They say they are going to fix this but many vans have been produced with this huge flaw. Wiring should be like a work of art, neat and well marked. It should look like a freeway with no hanging wires and protection when routing through holes, especially through metal. Look before you buy.

[@brendacarhart1200]

you guys never tell if there is any storage under those beds. I have outside grill and chairs I need to store

[@Patrick_Ross]

This van is a non starter for that very reason. Gotta have a gear garage.

Hi, Matt! I love your videos! I own a Class B and love those videos the most. Your enthusiasm is contagious and your presentation is fun and super-informative. The team you’ve put together is awesome! Becky knows her stuff, that’s for sure. I only have one small request, not for myself, but for future potential buyers… remove shoes before putting them up on beds/sofas? This floor plan is amazing, too. Warmly, Sandy

[@navychhaingvoeun528]

This is my favorite Rv

[@RivBiv]

My dog is a heeler and jumps in so we are good on the steps.

[@ashleysarttable]

This is a great layout but it would be better if they got rid of those storage drawers and cabinet in the very back and put the toilet there instead. Then toilet and shower would be separate. Could a person really trust that items they store in those cabinets won’t get damp? If they made that change this van would be pretty much perfect. Love the videos!! I wonder why more vans don’t have this layout? It seems so much more roomy.

[@DingbadYoutube]

I have a camper setup Similar and things stay dry.

[@Technocrat.]

Nice RV, very nice. Nexxen tires are tough, I had them on a van before, ran over a huge nail, it did not penetrate, instead bent the nail. But if these are steel belted, they are hard to balance and always vibrate on hwy. Also, very slick on wet and snow roads. The ones I had.

Hi Becky and Matt, I like the floor plan, love the back bathroom, but why in the heck have manufacturers quit putting outside storage in the B vans? you can’t carry an outside rug, lawn-chairs, griddle/accessories, etc. hoses, chocks, leveling blocks etc. about the only manufacture that still makes outside storage is the pleasure way, and I respect that highly.

That is a fantastic FP! I don't see anything I'd add or remove. Though you mentioned it in passing, I didn't really get the capacity of the hitch. With that van, it would be great to be able to put my Honda Navi (just over 200lb.) on a carrier. PLUS I agree with Matt fully on the running board. My late Aussie ripped a toenail on a hole in just regular trailer steps (not too serious but bad enough).

Thank you for sharing this RV. Nice floor plan.

[@seka1986]

Very good.

[@KenyonKarl]

I really like the two permanent beds with NO CRACKS between the cushions. This greatly improves your chances of getting a good night's sleep. The two wedge shaped cushions can be used for sitting up in bed, or to use it as a day bed. But with only two of those cushions, you don't have comfortable couch seating for more than two people. I also didn't see seat belts, so I assume that the beds are NOT SUITABLE for daytime travelers. Not shown was any arrangement for making the twin beds into one large bed for making love and the like., thus I assume it s not possible for this floor plan. The long low back cushions used to fill in the center of the big bed also increases the daytime couch seating capacity

[@etrimbleable]

[@josieg219]

I like awnings that have legs that come down to the ground. That way a screen or canvas can be attached, maybe with magnets or ties. Can't enjoy sitting outside with bugs eating you up. Can the storage in the back be accessed with the doors closed? Oh no. I don't like that you have to open the doors to swivel the front seats. If there's a rain storm or snowing, then the cab part will get wet inside. And can the front seats be adjusted to be lower? I like the size of the bathroom and that it's in the rear.
