For a barebones no-slide small RV, I expected a sub $200K price. Disappointed that is not the case. You did not give fuel tank or LP tank capacities. The windows opening laterally instead of at the bottom is problematic if it rains and you need ventilation. It's a very nice looking RV with great features but that $235K price doesn't support it.

Holy Cow!!! This is my perfect RV! I currently have a 2003 Winnebago Adventure 33V (2 slides) ... 2nd owner and I put approx 40K miles on her over the nearly 18 years that I have owned. I have been thinking to downsize as my traveling is now shorter trips. My fav things about this Chinook based on my Winne experience: Brake controller, gen plus solar, back door!!!, heated utility bay, dry bath setup, LEVELING!!! Fit and finish looks great. Storage looks great vs vans that I've looked at. Tow capacity is a plus. I have a 2002 Jeep Wrangler Sport set up for towing 4down. I'd love to mostly not tow but the option is there.

I’ve had some people say I should gut it and go new but everything works perfectly so I have a hard time justifying that. I would have been 27 when it was built and I think it’s kind of cool retro as is. Anyway I’m a fan for sure.

Love the design ! The placement ofthe propane quick disconnect is guaranteed to get ripped off going over speed bumps and the sewer dump is going to get ripped off leaving the first gas station. PLEASE, PLEASE, move these closer to the rear wheels ( infront and behind)and keep them up higher to prevent damage. Having exposed spray foam not only looks cheap but absorbs water and encourages rust and mold and rocks from the wheels will erode the foam after a few miles of gravel and then you have freezing problems. Thirdly two lithium batterys are cheaper than 4agm and will power the cook top for hours. Much better than the agm which will need the generator on too be used for more that 5 min. The space under the couch really needs some better organization, there could easily be half the space usable for storage with the use of a false floor and exchangingbthenpositions of the truma and inverter.

Why would anyone in their right mind buy a new RV? A friend of mine recently purchased a used class C RV from folks who originally bought it new, and like many others in their situation, discovered the RV world wasn't for them. They let it sit around for about four years and decided to unload it. The RV my friend purchased was pretty much like new with very low mileage and at about half the original sticker price. Similar deals like this are literally all over the place out there - the supply is apparently endless.

The best part of buying used for me was that the previous owners(elderly couple) did all the warranty and recall work. There are always problems with these when they come off the assembly line. There is a lot of down time involved with bringing it back to the manufacturer for them to fix what they forgot in the first place.

Your tour was nice but the unit is lacking. That gas outlet needs a pipe guard since it is going to get knocked off sooner or later. No lights inside the exterior compartments, No sliding battery tray, The power connections are on the floor of the compartment so any water will corrode or short out, and no skid plate or roller on the back end so the sewer connection will get knocked off when you bottom out. No way to get to the roof like fold-out mast steps or anything, With seams in the shower it will mold and leak. No backsplash or guard on the left side or behind the sink so any spills will run into the side window or onto the couch. There is also no guard on the right of the stove for the same reason. No range hood since you can't cook in the rain since there is no rear awning. All the controls tank monitoring and so forth should be centralized not all over the place. JBL amp is on the floor so any leak will ruin it. No secure storage like a safe for valuables. The cabinets need venting and perhaps a quiet computer fan for air circulation. No curtain between the cab and the rear. No seat belts on the dinette or couch but sleeps 3-4? It's a nice unit but is lacking a lot of complete engineering thought.

The rear door is also a better safety security escape door better than the usual small windows. Here you can use front or the back door. This is great. Also you have more space under the awning for chairs and tables. If you use a small trailer you can attach the bike rack to the trailer hitch, or if you don’t have such trailer you need to use a moveable rack to access the rear door. But the trailer give you more cargo capacity 2k+ lbs and it is only 130lbs on the van occc. It is also a safe on the campground.

I was looking for a used Chinook about 5 years ago. I wanted 4WD and was prepared to have Quadvan convert it. But then I realized that I would always be carrying a bicycle or motorcycle on the rear hitch or pulling a trailer. So that rear door was a deal breaker for me. Chinook did make a model with a side door, but they didn't build very many of them so they're very rare. I bought a Transit instead and had Quadvan convert it to 4WD.

I had an ORIGINAL Toyota Chinook for many years and loved it. Fit and finish back then were almost as nice is it is today. Amenities were sparse - no bathroom or refrigerator but had on board propane that we removed for extra storage (and the ability to use tunnels legally) and did all our cooking outside. We traveled EVERYWHERE east of the Mississippi for years with two sons sleeping over cab. It was a true CAMPER! You were camping in that rig - it was not a motorhome. When it finally had to be taken away due to my neglect and NY salt corrosion my wife, Terry, cried. She so loved the many years we had with it as our only vehicle, daily driver and commuter. I am so happy that Chinook is back and working on couples-friendly glamping now.

I loved this when it came out last year. Would be my first pick except for the CCC. There’s even less on the DS. Tons of storage that you can’t use. After deducting for water and tanks, there’s enough CCC for 2 people, some food and clothes and that’s it. No chairs, grills or outdoor stuff and certainly no toys. I also think towing anything would be risky with such low CCC. But if you did, you’d have to lose the 2nd person or travel over weight. It’s so frustrating when these manufacturers come out with such a great product and then give such low CCC that you can’t really use it. I also wish all the reviewers would give more importance to the CCC and actually tell people that they can’t really use all the storage space provided. I’ve been educating myself but a lot of people will buy this having no idea that if they fill that storage, they’ll be overweight. I love everything about this RV, especially the 4 seasons aspect. I prefer the DS. But I can’t figure out how to travel with a little over 500lbs of CCC.

It’s actually okay towing it has about 5,000 lbs of room on GCWR. So like he said, with a 1000 lbs of cargo you can tow 4000. Their web site indicates; Dry weight 9,300 GVWR 11,000 Difference 1700 GCWR 16000 So not sure if their CCC already has some things removed, like fresh water? I think the cargo limits are mainly on the axles, reason cargo is only around 1000. Problem is all that hardwood and systems. Quality is heavy.

That antique 3-way fridge is an absolute deal-killer they need to realize that 12 volt is the only way to go.

It runs off 12v or 110v. You're covered either way. -Mike

@@VogtRVWorld3 way means it’s an absorption fridge, which means it cools slower, as well as not necessarily getting cool enough. Unless you mean it is both compressor AND absorption fridge.

@@dreadlord76 I have a dometic 3 way fridge and thank god it had the propane option because a wire got fried from my ac blowing (long story) the 12v n the shore power stopped working. Having choices is superior! Also boon docking fridge eats up the battery power bud! And this fridge keeps ice cream no problem! This is my 4th rv and third dometic absorption fridge and i have had no problems with any of them. 🍻

Rear door may get old after multiple back in campsites with the picnic table and/ fire rings on the sides. Just thinking convenience when cooking outside. Maybe?

pretty sleek layout. like the dinette set up and the dry bath. not sure about the water and electrical under the bed area w/ no compartmentalization to keep things from shorting out in the event of a water leak.

15 degree C isn’t below freezing as said. Zero Celsius equals 32 Fahrenheit. I believe you meant to say -15 C as posted on that sticker.

The notice on the window: the temperature range tested was -15C to 20C (5F to 68F). The coach had to heat from well below freezing to 20C within 4 hours, and it did so.

Hey Mike hope that you're doing great? I'm glad to see you back making videos of all different kinds of motorhomes, fifth wheels, an travel trailers. I like this Chinook class B plus. I like that the door is in the back of it. Your number one fan Leonard Nelson from North Carolina! Keep up the great work.
