Our New Alliance Delta Travel Trailer | Why We Downsized from the Alliance Paradigm 340RL 🚐

[@jennifercloud6985]

Y’all’s new RV is beautiful! You guys will make tons of precious memories together in in for a long time to come!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our videosupporting our channel. Thank you for your kind comments. Have a wonderful day.

[@Kingskruisin]

I'm so glad your daughter is doing better.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you so much, it is a big relief for us, our daughter is our world.

[@2KrazyKampers]

We’re towing our 294Rk with a 2023 F2250 Diesel. We averaged 10.5-11mpg towing about 2500 miles. The truck handled the weight well and we are well under our payload of 3050 pounds. Considering the amount of travel you do, I’d get a diesel. You’ll be happy with the Engine Brake you get on mountains. Also, Iff you get a diesel, you can put in a larger fuel tank. We changed our tank out to a 60 gallon S^B tank and we can go about 300 miles while towing before we get to half a tank. Without towing we can go 1200-1300 miles on a single tank

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Hello Joe & Rachel, Thank you for watching our video, great suggestion for a tow vehicle. We just picked up our new truck this weekend so we just recorded a quick tour of it, that will come out sooner than later since we are at the pre-rally & all the Ally's have seen it, lol...

[@patleonard2884]

Looking forward to what's ahead in your new trailer! Congrats! So glad to hear your daughter is doing better.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you so much for watching our video and for your kind comment.

[@lbrumleve]

🙏to your daughter. Delta has caught my eye definitely. Your video just made it a little bit more inticeing. Look forward too upcoming videos

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video tour of our new Delta, we absolutely love our new travel trailer, thank you for your prayers for our daughter.

[@rhondagroves4382]

Love the new travel trailer and I can't wait to see the updates.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our new tour video on our beautiful Delta. We’re really excited to get some of these modifications and upgrades done inside our trailer and outside of course too. Lots of work ahead for us and we’re at the pre-rally for the national rally.

[@TheBimbleEffect]

Can't wait for the audio upgrade. You do such a good job with those upgrade videos!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you guys for watching our tour video, we are so happy with our new Delta. Upgrades and mods are so fun! Now just getting settled in and finding a place for our things, let the good times roll. We hope you two are doing good and we are excited to see you at the RV Unplugged Season 2 rally, love you both.

[@williamguy5507]

We changed from a 30ft 2015 outback 5th wheel (because we wanted to get away from inside stairs) to a Delta 292 RL. We have been traveling since midApril (so far 7000 miles) and love it. We are pulling with our 2016 Chevy Silverado 2500hd longbed crewcab. Husky centerline hitch. We added a second 200w solar cell and a second 100ah lithium battery. At the Alliance rally we added the Morryde piston lift step and the safety rail like you got. Both are great additions. We also got a lippert door privacy shade and a dog screen protector. So far we havn’t seen another Delta in the wild from Mississippi to Elkhart to Colorado to Glacier except at the rally. We absolutely love ours. Pulling with diesel. Don’t want ti do the Rockies without our engine brake!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and supporting our channel. We definitely need to upgrade our stairs to the hydraulic lift. We are shocked on how much the little ones weigh. You have a lot of the upgrades we plan to do! Thank you for the feedback, we love hearing about great ideas.

[@destinationfulltime]

Love it! It has a lot more room than I expected it would.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching the tour video of our brand new Alliance Delta Travel Trailer. With opposing slides it does feel so much bigger in here than we would’ve thought too.

[@AmeliaHadrava]

I got so excited to see that 3rd drawer expecting to see a dishwasher! Lol. Oh well. Your new home looks great! Congratulations!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video, a dishwasher would be nice but they are typically too heavy for this type of RV and they aren’t residential size, we’ve seen some RV dishwashers hold a couple of plates, cups, silverware, basically a setting for two.

[@DaddyTux-de3iq]

Wonderful upgrades! We bought a 292RL end of 2023 and love it - only upgraded to CRE3000. We love it - towed Texas to Florida and back zero issues. We use a SRW 2022 GMC AT4 3500 standard bed. More payload than needed, but we keep a lot of stuff in bed. The 292RL pulled great - bias I’d stay with 3500 SRW b/c provides extra payload and cost difference is minimal for the extra payload you get.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video and for your suggestion on tow vehicle, also congratulations on your Delta 292RL and glad to hear that you have some awesome upgrades already. We have upgrades in the works and are excited. Safe travels & also, keep an eye out, we are hosting the 4th annual Southern Ally rally in Florida early March next year, all FamAlly is welcome, more details to come.

[@jbeletti]

Great video. You're gonna love TT life.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video supporting our channel. So far, we are loving the Travel Trailer life (again).

[@alanradnai7702]

Awesome

[@TheMyersAdventure]

Congratulations 🎉 rear living is the best! I’m bias because we have the 372rk for almost 3 years in July. Can’t wait to see in person.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video. We are getting all settled in & figuring out where our stuff should go & of course mods & upgrades 🤗 We’ll see you guys soon, safe travels.

[@Kingskruisin]

Yay storage video.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video & storage is king.

[@Starbreaker666]

OMG that custom rear desk is mandatory!! If Alliance will let us do this too we are basically going to copy the "Venturesome Couple" 292 RL. So perfect!!!!! We bought a '24 Silverado 2500HD 6.6 gasser. It's incredible. My gasser is rated at 18,400 for a 5ver and 16k for conventional tow. Payload is 3425 on a 2500 truck. Diesel is overrated anymore.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video of our new Delta, we LOVE it. That's awesome, they should come out with a Venturesome Couple 292RL addition, did you ask Bill Martin? Great suggestion for a tow vehicle, we just picked up our new truck, new video out on it soon (sooner since we are at Elkhart campground and all the Ally's here see it, lol...)

[@lbrumleve]

We have a 2000 f250 7.3 diesel crew cab 8’ bed. Absolutely love it.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching the tour of our new Delta travel trailer. Nice truck you have there.

[@Tanya-yv4ik]

Love your tour. We are torn between your model and the 294rk. My husband is upgrading our 1500 gmc to a 3500 gas srw.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you, have you seen our tour video of the 295RK? It’s a great floor plan too. Great pick for your new truck.

[@Tanya-yv4ik]

@@VenturesomeCouple I did. Very nice floorplan. We are probably sticking with a travel trailer. We prefer no stairs, due to mobility issues and I prefer no side in the bedroom. Love your videos.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you so much.

[@rvgoingnow]

You shoud get a Ford F350 Platinum SRW short bed, with the 6.7 liter turbo diesel. With all the towing you do, including East to West, and vice versa, over the mountains, the diesel will give you the power you need to tow like a champ. Besides, there's so many more fuel savings programs for diesel. The Platinum trim will come with the heated and massaging seats Martha wants.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video, sounds like a great suggestion for a truck, we will definitely ensure Martha has heated seats, now massaging seats, thats fancy!

[@timh8543]

Very cool

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching the tour of our new Travel Trailer , our Delta.

[@AdventuresOurWay]

We had a Montana Front Living with a F450 Diesel and it was a great set up. We sold that and went with a GMC 2500 Denali with the Duramax and a 9850 lb Outback and that combination is great also. I was going to go with a 1 ton but wanted a little softer ride when I wasn't towing. I've had all kinds of combinations with Campers and Trucks but this by far is my favorite set up. Great Vid Guys.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video, so many great choices for trucks, we've had quite a few over the past 25 years together. We do have a Mini Cooper back at our home base, that is our fun car and it's fully loaded, we got it almost 2 years ago, we don't travel too much with it, but our daughter takes care of it (she's 23).

[@CraigNiesenPhotography]

Martha and Chris, excellent tour and great options from the factory. I am leaning towards a GMC 2500HD 6.6L gas with a 10-speed transmission for Shelley, and I’s next truck. We cannot wait to see what additional modifications you make to the new trailer. Thank you for sharing. Peace and Safe Travels

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video of our new Delta travel trailer, we are loving it! The hard part is we decided that Cali needed her own doggy bed, she pouted and didn't eat breakfast yesterday morning, she got over it. Thank you for the suggestion on the truck. We just picked up our new truck and will have a shorter video tour of it soon. We are still working on putting our stuff away and our kitchen is a little different set up where things go, so that's been fun, lol... Take care and tell Shelley hello.

[@lancewulfers2502]

Love the rear desk, that is great for remote work families. Surprised you are downsizing to a TT. Love the mods.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our new tour video of our Travel Trailer. Honestly, being in here it doesn’t feel like we downsize too much. It is noticeable in the bathroom and the bedroom just a little bit.

[@RealLifewithAdrianRuth]

We are obsessed with your new rig it’s beautiful 😍 I love all the details love love the utensil draw , love the two desks love that you have an island and no rugs . Love all the windows and your pantry 24:44 one of my very favorites is your medicine cabinet you had them custom make 😍Love all the storage by your bed ours is similar with it Ss much storage 😂 great tour guys love it congratulations 🎉🎈🎊 You guys deserve it ❤

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video guys, we miss you two. We love our new Travel Trailer and we just picked up our new truck yesterday. Video on that will come out shortly.

[@princessCheri14210]

Oh man! I have a 7lb Yorkie that sleeps with my husband & I on our queen bed in the travel trailer & its such a struggle. We decided that our next rv MUST have a king bed! Good luck.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video, we ended up getting a Cali a new plush doggy bed, it took a couple nights for her to get used to not sleeping with us at night, but now we are all are getting good sleep, our 100 lb doggy is spoiled and a snuggler. When we get up in the morning, Chris & I will go snuggle on the couch with her.

[@SonarTravels]

1 Ton Chevrolet 3500 LTZ, Gas, with 5th wheel prep, SRW. That’s what I’m getting, but I’m buying the 32RLS. I also think the 3500 gives you the headroom, so that if you go to a 5th wheel next after Alaska, next year, my prediction, you will already have the truck to pull it.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching the tour of our brand new Alliance Delta Travel Trailer. Great suggestion on the truck.

[@drewpeavy4319]

So will we get a tour of your new camper rv gym? I sure do hope so!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video & we have some stuff at our home base in Florida that we want to bring to add to our mobile gym, we’ll do a tour video of our set up. We have some stuff with us.

[@kennouque2070]

I highly recommend the GM trucks they are in for service far less then the other two manufacturers and the camera options is pretty awesome. I think gas over diesel is the better option price to buy a diesel and now diesel is more expensive to fill your truck. Hope that helps

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video tour of our new Delta travel trailer. We did find an amazing truck, we do have a video on it, we think you may like it too.

[@JandAReview1]

Chris you are cool 😎

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Chris says thank you

[@KeepingitrealwithBobby-Leslie]

I’m pulling 35 with GM HD gas. Gas is definitely cheaper, gas mileage won’t be to much different from diesel, you just got to watch some places with long trailer. Hard to get to the gas pump.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching and so very true about price of gas versus diesel. If we go gas, we will miss the truck stops for the convenience of bigger area to get fuel, it wouldn't be the worst thing, but we would miss it.

[@blairM363]

Love the new trailer, can anyone get this exact setup with all of these customizations? Or perhaps I should hold off, how long before you upgrade again? And will that be to a teardrop next? Seriously, love the modifications especially the desk; almost ruled alliance out because I didn’t know they would do that.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you @blairM363 - that made our day, give us a couple to five years, lol... Thank you for watching our tour video and we are still getting settled in and are making those awesome even more customized upgrades. We don't think we'll ever go into a teardrop, but we'll never say never, lol... have a great day.

[@donitaarender7839]

Nice travel trailer. I've been looking at this too. I was looking for outdoor kitchen with large fridge and draining sink 🤪. But gas 2500HD 4dr.Crew cab GMC should be perfect for this tt.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video of our new Delta. We are working on figuring out a bbq/grill. Great idea for a truck 🛻

[@JamesHarlow-p3c]

We love your new Delta. Would highly recommend a 3/4 ton diesel truck.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our new tour video of our Delta, thank you for the truck recommendation too.

[@rd1860]

Congrats on the new rig. I really like this layout. Currently looking for a new trailer but I see the drawer boxes are simply stapled together and all of the counter-tops appear to be constructed of pressboard/MDF with a thermo-foil cover. I know Alliance does a good job of standing behind their products, but with only a one-year warranty--those two things give me pause. Curious if this is the same type of construction used in the other Alliance rigs you've had? Take care.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video of our new Delta travel trailer. Our recommendation is to come tour the factory of all the different Alliance RV's. We are getting settled in and love ing our new Delta, still getting used to a smaller bathroom and bedroom, but it isn't bad. We did get Cali (our 100 lb fur baby) a large comfy bed to sleep on at night since we are in a queen bed and not an RV king.

[@EVDan532]

Chevy Silverado 2500 HD gas model. It comes ready for towing TT. Your video opened my eyes to special ordering. I plan to ask Alliance if they will install solid countertops & proper plumbing to the water heater. Please keep an eye on the hydraulic actuator for your slide as they're known to leak (you'll notice the slide coming out during traveling - no big deal, but just be aware). You just got another subscriber! 😊

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Awesome! Thank you for watching our video and supporting our channel. We are honored to have you with the Venturesome Tribe. Thank you for the advice on the actuators.

[@stanfordbanks3399]

Hay guys I am excited for your new adventure. You asked the question what kind of truck. The best way is a 2024 gmc denali 3500 ultimate gas engine 6.6L. ⛽️ It's all you will need and 1/2 The cost and maintenance of a diesel. I hope this helped I love mine and I tow 14,000

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and for your suggestion on a truck. Great points too, we may have kept our dually if it was a short bed, but it is going to a good home. We just picked up our new truck, so we'll have a short video update on it.

[@lizahipolito4422]

We haven't bought our rv yet and are currently trying to decide between a 5th wheel and a Travel trailer. I'm curious what made y'all decide to leave a 5th wheel for a travel trailer? I realize this can be different for everyone. I would just love to hear and learn what made that decision for y'all.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video, we did explain our reasons of why we switched from the past three RV’s, last being a 5th wheel to our new travel trailer towards the end of this video. Best advice is to walk the floor plans & see what fits best for you & those traveling with you. Life has different seasons of how we live and travel, which is why we’ve changed RV’s. Also, if you already have a tow vehicle and you don’t want to change it for a new one, make sure you can safely tow & stop with it, you don’t want to have to change out your tow vehicle because your new RV needs more payload. We sold our truck with our 5th wheel, so we got a new truck to fit our travel trailer but also any future RV we may want to change to.

[@peterkettelkamp7162]

Curious what you choose for a weight distribution/sway hitch!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and we’ll have another video out of our tow set up, trying different stuff out right now.

[@ellengriffith4424]

Hey is that desk an option that anyone can get or did they do that just for you?

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and for supporting our channel. We were able to order the desk through our order with the dealership.

[@JandAReview1]

Our TT is just under 30’ and we pull it with a 3/4 ton gas truck. If we traveled as much as you guys we would say go with a diesel. Safe travels!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and for the suggestions on what type of truck we should get.

[@cindymittleider3014]

Great video! We have the 370FB, just not sure if we could down size that much even though we don't full time!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our new Delta tour video, we are still adjusting to our new travel trailer, so far the only sad part is that we had to get Cali her own big doggy bed, she's 100 lbs, but we are all getting better sleep. The 370FB is a fantastic floor plan, your bathroom is grand, safe travels.

[@markk171]

Looks nice, but my question about Alliance is why did they go cheap with the travel trailers? They seemed to have addressed some of their issues in their 5th wheels but going cheap on counter tops, cabinets and still with the improper fittings in the plumbing. The trail looks really nice though.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video of our new Delta travel trailer, our recommendation is to take a factory tour of all of the plants for the different models, travel trailers, 5th wheels, toy haulers, etc... they changed some of the material to make the TT's lighter, but we don't feel the Deltas are a downgrade, we are loving ours.

[@cfarais]

Thank you for this video. We are looking to buy the 321bh, and your video brought up a good question..is the free standing table and chairs option attached to the wall? Or is it truly free standing and can be moved around?

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and supporting our channel. It is free standing but they have it screwed into the slide floor and small L brackets attaching it to the wall. About eight screws and you can move it anytime you want.

[@roywhtilock]

Did you order this directly from Alliance - or go through a dealer? I'm looking for something similar as far as that desk goes.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video, we ordered our Delta through the dealership.

[@bobatwood1384]

Love the Video, new subscriber looking at this trailer or a very similar one in a different Brand. Best K9 I ever owned was named Callie (German Shepard). She would follow me every where I went but thankfully was not a farter😂 I tow with a Ram 2500 diesel Bighorn and yes it has seat heaters 👍 and would never go back to a gasser ( unless I was only towing something smaller or very rarely) NO OFFENSE TO ANY ONE WITH A GAS TRUCK😎.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our new tour video of our Delta. So far we are loving our new travel trailer, the only bad part is that we ended up getting Cali a big plush doggy bed because we all weren't getting good sleep on the queen bed. Your Callie sounds like a great one and sure was amazing, we have much respect for K9's and of course law enforcement and military. Thank you for the suggestion on the truck, we'll make sure it has heated seats for me (Martha). Have a wonderful day.

[@ChollaJJ]

Gas truck, unless traveling a lot. Diesel pull better but , the maintenance cost is quit a bit more and more expensive…consider the warranty details. Thanks…. We have a 29 ‘ bumper pull ‘ ….. with an arctic package. We pull with a half ton, no issues at all, but, trailer is only about 6000#. Thx. 👍🤠☕️

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our tour video. We sold our 1 ton diesel dually with a long bed, we bought a new truck, we have a video on that one at the end of this video of what we bought and a short tour. Diesel does cost way more to maintenance, we know that all to well. Safe travels and enjoy every moment.

[@TheMyersAdventure]

I would personally go with a gas truck if you can because it is easier to find, cheaper, and no DEF. You also don’t have to be with the truckers lol.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video and for the suggestion. That is valid points you bring up.

[@s0nicsvt04]

I think stay diesel. That way you can still easily pull into truck stops and have easier maneuvering at the pumps.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our Delta tour video & that is a great idea, we do love our truck stops to fuel up. Have a wonderful day.

[@williamguy5507]

Also like using the Open Roads EFS card fir discounts at truck pumps and how fast you can fuel up at truck pumps.

[@jennifercloud6985]

What about washer and dryer?

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video, no washing & dryer. We have a smaller carrying capacity in our Delta, but we will get solar. We’ve never had a washer & dryer in any of our RV’s. The Travel trailers so far aren’t plumped for them.

[@jennifercloud6985]

Oh ok we are having to move thinking seriously about purchasing an RV full time living. I’m disabled suffering from arthritis fibromyalgia a horrible back so I know I need a washer and dryer in our home I really am liking the Delta’s all the extras they have.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you sharing that information with us. Martha’s mom had severe arthritis and osteoporosis. We can understand the need for the washer and dryer close by.

[@RVLifeWithTheMuirs]

I am very sad you are moving out of the 340RL! I messaged you a couple months ago and asked if you had the option would you still buy the 340RL and you said yes. I’m seriously considering that model and have enjoyed your videos getting to learn more about that unit. Guess I will have to find some other 340RL owners. Good luck with your new rig!

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video, we would still buy the 340RL again if we were still traveling full time & most time, with our daughter's brain surgery, we are more around her on shorter trips for awhile. This is our 4th RV, we love to change things up and try new floor plans, sorry to see you go since we changed trailers, we wish you all the best of luck, safe travels.

[@elizabethcongdon8499]

Diesel 1 ton single axel. You probably won't have to be buy a new truck when you upgrade to a fifth wheel again. :)

[@VenturesomeCouple]

Thank you for watching our video of our new Delta travel trailer, and thank you for the suggestion on a new truck. We probably would have kept our dually if it was a short bed, we have the long bed, which makes it ever harder for parking in certain businesses, but we both enjoy towing and driving the dually.

[@Fulltimetraveler2024]

Nice tour. I just wish they used real wood for the cabinets etc and not shellacked cardboard faux wood. What are the countertops made out of? Hopefully not the epoxy.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

@@Fulltimetraveler2024 Thank you for watching our video tour of our new Deltatravel trailer. We also would have loved to have real wood and solid surface counters. We have thermofoil countertops which are holding up perfectly fine so far.

[@Fulltimetraveler2024]

Glad to hear it. I hope it lasts for you.

[@VenturesomeCouple]

@@Fulltimetraveler2024 Thank you ☺️
