We only camp with the grandbabies occasionally, so we like the 29L a lot better than the 31P as you get much more kitchen storage. We like no transfer switch, in twelve years of workamping we have had to loan out our battery charger several dozen times because folks do no maintenance on them to check for wire tightness and invariably all of them will fail at some point for loose wires on such an important function. For those thinking the portable LP tanks are a pain, we use the Mopeka Bluetooth Ultrasonic sensors which tell you your LP tank levels to a high degree of accuracy and the app lets you have as many sensors as you have tanks. Every RV we owned has lost an AC unit within the two year warranty period, so having two is a blessing and the Winnebago Intent can allow one AC to run while you run the microwave. We camp host in places there is no AC power or only 30-amps available so us having a 50-amp coach often needs to complications when we need two AC's running in warmer climates. We try to camp host in the mountains in summer where AC is not needed. One comment, being a price point unit we do not like the pleaded shades, but I have become an expert at restringing them which isn't all that horrible once you buy the repair kits and learn the secrets. MCD shades are less insulative and with only single pane windows on a price point motorhome there may be a slight edge to staying with the pleaded shades, at least until they fall completely apart and then you can retrofit them with the Slow-Rise Brand of roller shades yourself for very reasonable cost. Matt, we are working on paying off our travel trailer so will be looking for you to give us a good price on a mid-year Intent 29L when we get that far ... so please give us a 29L review soon!!!! Keep up the good work and OH YES, the storage behind the BEDROOM TV can be accessed from the main clothes closet, not by lifting up the bedroom TV (which is fixed), It is like a secret shoe compartment, LOL.
Holy cow Matt u did good on that ladder😳. Dislikes- No back bumper/no auto transfer switch The pleated blinds👎👎👎 The open space at top of the bathroom door Likes- Kitchen set up Awning/outside kitchen How easy the cab seats swivel😊 Thanks again for a great video from Debbie and Bill
I am impressed you were able to get on that ladder! Likes: 1) step to assist getting into the bed. 2) exterior kitchen. 3). Lower carpeted area between driver/passenger seat making it easier to get to the seats 4) pantry Dislikes: 1) the exterior compartments underneath with wires all over. 2). Small microwave 3). High ladder. 4). PC shelf up in passenger seat. 5). Lack of auto transfer switch
I love this one! Swivel seats, cabinet at the door,bunk area, oven,storage under bed,outdoor kitchen,large counter, double sink, side cameras on mirrors,price. Can carry small stepstool to reach the ladder and change to porcelain toilet. No real dislikes. 😊 Nice review, thanks!
I just got a small folding stepstool for my pickup truck today, so the kids can get in and out easier, and I can get up in my truck bed, because I'm so not an athletic specimen.
Matt!!!! Please, please, please bring a step stool when going up the ladder!!!! We love your reviews! We want you safe and healthy. Next, you need to continue starting these RV's up with the a/c on while you are showing the outside so they are cooling the inside. It will show us that you guys are staying cool in the hot FL weather. I like seeing the videos where you and Andres are comfortable. You guys do an awesome job and I know you work hard. Praying for your much deserved success! ***3 things I love 1-bunks 2-whole cab area 3-kitchen 4-ducted a/c ***3 things I don't like 1-ladder (way high up) 2-no auto transfer switch not a deal breaker though Over all I love this one.
Hey guys! I love this RV! The two AC's are fine with me - especially the 30 amp. We've stayed at some older RV parks that only had a couple of 50 amp sites (which are always taken). But there are usually plenty of 30 amp sites. And, when you've been on the road all day and you're looking for a place to pull over, relax, walk your dog, and take a hot shower, having a 30 amp can really help with that! Guess I've always had the kind of RV you had to change the plug when switching from generator to shore power, so that doesn't seem like much of a problem at all! I also have no problem with the ladder being higher. Its actually a good way to keep kids off your roof - it's simple to take a folding step ladder and put it in your storage compartment....just pull it out when you need to climb up! There are so many likes ---- the storage - the swivel seats - the kitchen - love those bunks and the interior colors! Dislikes - gosh, can't think of any! You guys make the best videos - love ya lots!
I love the floorplan and at 31', it fits in my driveway. I do agree with you that the latter is too high. I also don't like it when any RV has exposed hookups. All hookups on my '91 Itasca are covered. I don't see why a 2020 anything has exposed hookups. My wife and I love your videos. Keep up the great work!
You guys are so darn cute together ❤ I just love your back and forth banter! If you go rewatch your older videos w/o Andrea, you can tell that Matt is happier with Andrea there! No offense to whoever used to film Matt! Thanks for keeping it real for us!!!😃
Love, love, love your videos. I learn something new each time and leave smiling. Be careful jumping from ladders that high - bad knees are just a jump away. Stay well you both.
Hi Matt and Andrea. I like the kitchen. Like the wood color. Tv placement. Don’t like the ladder issue. That transfer switch seems important. We’re new to camping and still learning but probably would be much easier with it
One of the nicest motorhomes I’ve ever seen. Great review. The ONLY dealbreaker for me is the 30 amp electric. If this unit had 50 amp it would be almost perfect.
Matt don't risk any ladder like that, something happens to you or Andrea' ...can't imagine the RV world w/o the 2 of U.... likes: 1.Front looks wicked! I love the headlights with paint continuing the light angle, like eyeliner on an RV! 2. Love towing 5K lbs and cargo capacity. 3. Love the visibility thru the steering wheel. 4. Ease of getting in the "cockpit area", no clutter. 5. ♡ outside kitchen 6. Bunk area with rod and multi function ...♡ 7. ♡ the sink angled to visit and see living area... 8. ♡ flooring 9. Countertop space, ( does need a power tower) Dislikes: 1.They couldn't put even 1 solar panel on top! 2. Would like to see more gray tones and barn siding interiors. 3. Magizinetype storage area by copilot is needed. 4. Didn't see a doggy window... 5. plastic toilet...really! 6. prefer the European cabinets 7. Window treatments, useless and would need replaced. 8. no auto transfer switch? what? 9. ladder, maybe make it heavier with a hinge to safely access roof, add key lock for safety.
From out here in CO looking to move to FL, I like watching your reactions to the heat in Ocala. Here we go now is echoed by my 6th grader; he likes watching you go up the ladder. You both look super relaxed and happy to do these reviews. Thank you!
We look forward to your videos very much. Thank you for all you do. Our likes: * The size of the awning is fabulous...it would be even better with some color added to it, though. * We like having a small amount of storage in the dinette table itself. * We like the amount of counter space in the kitchen and we also like the amount of counter space. Our dislikes: * We prefer frameless windows. * Where's the doggy window on the passenger side of the cockpit? * It would be great to have cutting board covers for the kitchen sink. Stay cool, guys.
Nice class A like the floor plain , lot of room around the sink for stuff , really like the easy swivel chairs , that outside kitchen love it . The not likes , the toilet no , that latter no , the tank fill up in the back bad spot , but over all not bad .
Matt & Andrea, it was a rough day Thank You both for making us smile as you always do! Another great black tank hookup with room. 👍 Outdoor kitchen awesome! Matt, you worry us, that latter is terribly unsafe, we know you were amazing to be able to climb it period, but please be very careful on those for your safety not to fracture your hip joints, OK?
I love the new Intent. The things I don't understand is how Winabego does a 3way gas electic in the Adventurer, but upgrades it to the all electric compressor fridge in the intent, and doesn't give you the porcelain toilet. Also, I need the 2 more powerful AC, because I can't control my temperature well and o get heat exhaustion supper easy.
You guys are awesome! My husband and I are looking for our next rv. I noticed you said this rv would never delaminate because of something I didn’t quite understand, but I’m going to watch it again with my husband so he can see this one! Keep up the good work!
Hey Matt and Andrea!!! As always I love seeing y'all's faces and love the video. I saw a little snip last week about a new 2020 Winnebago that looked extremely modern inside with light colors and what looked like a whole new floorplan. It was I think priced either at 299 or 399 but I can't remember as l only caught the tail end. Plus I don't watch any other RV salesmen. I won't ever even be able to own an RV lol and never really thought about it anyway until I happened across your channel and just fell in love with you and Andrea!! So now you're stuck with me and it won't be long before you're stuck with 100,000 and even more subscribers!! 😊 Oh, my point was I would love to see that RV or something similar if you know what I'm talking about and have access to show one sometime Started rambling and completely forgot why I was commenting in the first place 🤦🏻
3 things I like are you two and Una (hope I spelled her name right. I should have really liked this RV, but there was nothing special except the outdoor kitchen.
Good morning RV Review Crew! Hey Matt - you look quite fetching in the blue outfit! Very sharp! Well, I sit here today with 3 days until retirement and no lumps on my head from the bible-thumps from the Mrs., so this is a good week for me. And, tomorrow my root canal procedure gets finished! Woohoo! The only thing better than all that is watching another Matt’s RV Review on the Winnebago Intent 31P! Am I in heaven or what? Here we go now… In this coach I like: +I know Matt is wary of 30-amp motorhomes with two A/C units. But Matt is wary about a lot of things, like he was with the new Ford V8-F53 chassis. Given Winnebago’s track record for quality, I want to believe there are technology and electronic advances which allow the 30-amp/2-AC combination to be a viable option for certain coaches. Note: in the SPECS Matt put up, shows the AC unit at 15K, not two-11.5K units. My bigger concern here is how noisy the A/C units are (which is not disclosed) +24-foot awning = YUGE, I can’t bring myself to complain about it not being armless as I usually do +NO CAMP-SIDE SLIDE! +CONTROLS, DASH, DISPLAYS in the E-450 cab area look fantastic +Being able to swap out standard propane bottles is very convenient for the owner/operator Now for things that I did not care for, or I have questions about: - I like the undermount (I assume) porcelain sink, it’s very sharp and I notice it is downsized a bit to allow more countertop space in the galley - this is GREAT! However, I did not see countertop-level covers for the sink (like the cutting boards over the sink in the Adventurer model). If sink-covers do not come with the Intent, let’s change that! (minor point, I realize) -The outdoor kitchen which fits under the YUGE 24-foot awning is very nice! However, was there a propane quick connect? I did not see a propane quick connect? An outside kitchen is not a kitchen unless you can cook or heat something. -The layout is ok; I am not a fan of the main living area TV partially blocking the windows by the dinette. A better option would be for the TV to flip up and down to get it out of the way of the windows and allow for a larger dinette-area window. Even better to swap the location of the dinette and couch and have the TV on a televator which also allows for a large window in the area if the TV is stowed. -Not too crazy about the blinds (vs. shades) -Why was the sealant used on the roof black instead of tan to match the roof? Dicor Self-leveling Sealant comes if tan, why did Winnebago use black? I’d like to know the reason this color of Dicor is used by Winnebago. Finally, MATT! I don’t have my GRIP6 belt yet! I need to prove to the Mrs. that missing church the day I was selected to win a belt was an actual thing! MATT! It’s not a hot-water heater (you don’t need to heat hot-water), it’s just a water-heater! Also, at $100K, this looks like a great-value motorhome.
Good sleeping space for the size, like #1, large awning and outdoor kitchen like #2, and swivel seats are great! Dislikes; 1. No washer dryer setup, plastic toilet, lack of rear bumper! Access to the ladder would have been much easier. Great job Matt and Andrea as always, love your videos!
Cons: AC units small, Roof Ladder length, dog house Pros; cockpit design, seats, price. Thanks keep up the great work you two, when we come down to florida we will meet with you for our 2022 RV!
Hey! Got my sticker pack today! Yeah! They would look great on the back of this RV! Need one that says, honk if you Matt’s RV don’t like the pleated shades either. But would probably have insulated curtains made anyway. Do like the overall styling. Happy to see the top bunk fold up. Free upgrade to porcelain! Like the head board. But never been a big fan of the bed going crossway . Because they are almost always a short bed. Knew you were going to pick that stupid ladder ! Lol. Thanks to the two of you for another great review.
Likes: I liked the floor plan. I liked the DIY neutral colors. I like the way the dinette table comes up to counter-top height because it'd be handy as extra food prep space. And I liked the outdoor kitchen (which is huge since I usually say I'd rather have the storage space, but this one just seemed very inviting to use...). Dislikes: That ladder is an accident waiting to happen--boo hiss! I didn't like that there wasn't storage behind the TV in the bedroom (what's back there?). And, although I liked the shower door, the bathroom overall just looked very cheap and generic. Bonus like: I really get a kick out of watching Matt and Andrea. What a great couple. When I'm ready to buy, you'll be top of my list to check with first even though I'm way up north in Minnesota!
3 Likes: 1: The amount of features and amenities packed into 31 feet 2: The New Ford V8 Chassis 3: The DIY look works well in this entry level product 3 Dislikes: 1: No rear bumper 2: 30 AMP motor home 3: Plastic Toilet
Matt and Andrea thank you once again for a really enjoyable review. 3 likes: It's a Winnebago, outside kitchen and access with the slide in. 3 dislikes: plastic toilet, the 1 bay with all the hoses looked confusing and is there a new roof sealant (black) now?
I do like this floor plan and all the space for the kitchen counter. I wish there was a window in the bunk house. The “short” dog house is certainly a plus. I thought it was odd that you couldn’t get behind the TV in the bedroom. I am not a fan of a door to the bathroom into the bedroom. I sleep on that side and don’t want to hear anybody in the middle of the night😉 I was not a fan of the wet bay. I really like the outdoor kitchen but you do lose storage with that. Under 32” is awesome!!!!!
Now, y'all joke about Matt being an athlete and doing his stretches and stuff, but it is actually impressive that he can get up onto a ladder where the lowest step is at his chest height.
Matt, please consider a cheap 1080P drone to do roof videos. Spare us all who care about you a heart check😂. Say no to crack and broke. A cracked back and a broke neck🤣, and use a drone!😁 ...or not, it’s America✊
The things I do not like: 1. the ladder: deal breaker 2. the amount of space around the sink in the kitchen with the slide out in 3. no auto transfer switch The 3 things I do like: 1. the interior layout: the seating arrangement, the amount of counter space in the kitchen, the bunk area 2. the simplicity of the turning the driver and passenger seats around 3. the floor plan for this size motorhome
Brian Robertson You see the short ladder as a dealbreaker? Really? Cheesh. To me the ladder issue is the absolute least-important. Heck, some RV’s don’t even come with ladders. All that’s needed is to carry a stepladder to more easily access that bottom rung, something which many owners might do anyway to access the higher interior storage areas.
I own a Jayco Alante which is 30 amp and 2 a/c units. I’ve never had an issue and the motorhome stays cold. Also, being 30 amp, I can use most campsites. I know with a 50 amp, you could just use an adapter, but you wouldn’t be able to use both your 15 a/c units.
I'm hoping Thor is going to be building the AXIS models with the new V8 models in the future. An also Thor build the 24.1 without a slide just 2 swivel chairs with a pedestal table. A true model for couples only please !!!!!
Finest specimen of a physical wreck I’ve ever seen. Hey Matt I got a question, if you were going to purchase a truck camper knowing you would be camping in very low temperatures and snow, what manufacture would you go with and which truck? Hi Andrea 🥰. Cheers!!!
I agree that should be a 50 amp unit also should be on 22.5 inch tires and I agree that ladder is just terrible also the Winnebago seems to just cheat on the entry-level units and if you purchase one you probably won’t buy another Winnebago I don’t understand the marketing?
Not loving the blinds, not loving the 30 amp service, and no window for the top bunk. Love the counter space, the room layout and that Winnebago's swivels have leg room. Great cup holders!!!
From watching your channel I have become a big fan of the Winnebago brand. This one however is a non starter. Your reaction to this motorhome being 30amps gave me great pause so no thanks. I'd prefer a class C anyway. You and Andrea are the best! oh...and LGM!!! :)
Isn’t putting the kitchen in the slide out, asking for trouble. Deal breaker. Matt talk to the makers to correct this mistake. That goes for baths too. Love the outdoor kitchen.
I like the front seat swivel and access because of the less expensive v8. Thats a lot of storage taken by a not so useful outside kitchen which should be optional to cut the price and weight.I like the bunks but those drop down front beds should all be optional on all Class A makes. All power awnings should have the wind sensors and automatically retract when the transmission is engaged.
nice much better then sleep intent hehe I think someone needs to build a camper with a bed and a toilet you can use without a pushout ,,I like simple maybe No pushout
Even for a budget rig I don't like the propane set up. But that's fixable like the absence of bathroom porcelain and the missing transfer switch. I don't like the wasted space behind the bedroom TV, or having to remember to Jack up the bed before bringing the slide back in. I do like the layout and the kitchen counter area as well as the oven. For a budget rig, I wonder about how much the tank sizes are value engineered. You have to be savvy to buy a value engineered product, meaning understanding if there is a shortcoming that can't be acceptably altered to your satisfaction.
👍 Smashy! No cool spot in the shade??? L: cockpit layout with rotating seats; general furniture layout (did you figure out the couch/bed issue?; kitchen and appliances, oven! Outdoor kitchen. D: no auto transfer switch (just how prone are they to failure?); Dang, moob height roof ladder, even for us toned-types it could do us some serious damage; so-so changing space in bedroom; that ""step" sign is such a hoot, not very visible in the middle of the night. Sorry to hear it's getting so dangerous down there in FL, please stay safe you two. 😷😷😷😷😷!!!!!!
Like the new engine and steering wheel, like the cabinets and the color of the cabinets. Like the kitchen. Dislike, the ladder and no bumper, dislike the roof material, the plastic toilet. Winnebago should offer as options, theater seats, fiberglass roof, bumper, tankless water heater. Also like the truck camper style propane tanks.
Hello Matt & Andrea, Likes- the front cabin, the bunks, the outside kitchen. Dislikes- the toilet, the shades, there is nowhere to put your C-Pap machines by the bed.
Like TV replacement, offer of free porcelain toilet queen bed: also like hanging area in bunk area; don’t like plastic toilet, lack of washer/dryer hookup and no cover on stovetop
I feel its important .if you are a flat lender V8 might be ok . If you are a mountaineer you need a V10 for strength and durability some times you have spend the cash get a diesel for the power
i have been watching your videos for a couple of months now because you are so crazy and fun to watch! But i have a question? When you Matt were climbing the ladder why did you throw up that hand sign (5:10 mark)? And what was the meaning of that hand sign? Keep up with the great videos!
WINNEBAGO is renown for fiberglass roofs. There is a trend happening with newer models where they are going cheap on the roof which is a HUGE part of RV maintenance and prevention of expensive maintenance later. Even an aluminum roof is better than TPO or especially old school rubber roofs. Don’t go all “other brand” cheap Winnebago, please. Price point isn’t worth losing that Winnebago brand roof. Even if Winnebago takes a hit for the team to keep the famous fiberglass roof, which would be better than being greedy; overall, return and new customers would make the difference regardless.😁
Keeping in mind this is entry level... Pro Floor plan and seating areas Kitchen area Single big slide Cons 30 amp coach Tiney 4.0 Generator. A/Cs and microwave usage? PVC roof seems cheap
Hot tip: You should spend at least five minutes inside these motor homes *BEFORE* you start shooting the video tour, so that you can familiarize yourself with things like turning the sofa or dinette into a bed, accessing various under the seat storage areas, or swiveling the seats. I've seen you just give up on it too many times, and although I realize that you're doing so in the interest of moving the video along, there are a lot of people watching who think to themselves, "Gee ... This guy sells these things for a living, and if he can't get the sofa to deploy into a bed, then it must be pretty damn difficult." As a result, you may have already had a once prospective buyer cross the rig off their list before you've even made it past the refrigerator.
i love the fact that it sleeps 9 i love the amount of storage i love the outdoor kitchen three dislikes the shower is a little bit to small the microwave is a little small for me i cant think of third
We only camp with the grandbabies occasionally, so we like the 29L a lot better than the 31P as you get much more kitchen storage.

Hey Matt! You should create a Matt on a ladder sticker. lol

Right on you guys! 👍
Yes
AND ONE WHEN HE'S IN FLIGHT DOWN OFF THE LADDER OF THIS WINNEBAGO MODEL. LOL
"AHH ... AHH ... EE ..EE !"
THAT JUMP I FELT MY BELLY EMPTIED OUT ... LOL
Andrea said let’s do 3 things we dislike about it, Matt said ok then it went to a PS4 commercial. It was timed perfectly.
I am impressed you were able to get on that ladder!

Matt, you and Andrea are THE BEST!!!! Me and my family like and share your videos daily. We pray continued blessings over you both!
Awe thank you so much lisa☺️
Thanks very much Lisa! We love reading your comments:)
Matt, is there ever a time when you aren't super excited?
I really love your videos. You and your wife are doing a great job.
I love this one!
Swivel seats, cabinet at the door,bunk area, oven,storage under bed,outdoor kitchen,large counter, double sink, side cameras on mirrors,price.
Can carry small stepstool to reach the ladder and change to porcelain toilet.
No real dislikes. 😊

Andrea, your camera work is improving! You guys ate great! I watch your vids even if it’s not a unit I would buy/want. 😄
Hi Matt and Andrea. I like the kitchen. Like the wood color. Tv placement. Don’t like the ladder issue. That transfer switch seems important. We’re new to camping and still learning but probably would be much easier with it
I like it. It is like a bridge between a class C and class A
One of the nicest motorhomes I’ve ever seen. Great review.
The ONLY dealbreaker for me is the 30 amp electric. If this unit had 50 amp it would be almost perfect.

* Where's the doggy window on the passenger side of the cockpit?
* It would be great to have cutting board covers for the kitchen sink.
Stay cool, guys.
It would be nice to hear from one of your customers who had a V10 and went to the V8. What do they like and what do they not like?
Matt and Andrea , you forgot to mention the SHIP LAP wall covering in the outdoor kitchen lol lol
Hello Matt and Andrea ❤ I like the outdoor kitchen, like the storage, like the shower, bunks. Don't like the toilet, ladder. Great review!!!👍
Nice class A like the floor plain , lot of room around the sink for stuff , really like the easy swivel chairs , that outside kitchen love it . The not likes , the toilet no , that latter no , the tank fill up in the back bad spot , but over all not bad .
Matt & Andrea, it was a rough day
Thank You both for making us smile as you always do!
Another great black tank hookup with room. 👍
Outdoor kitchen awesome!
Matt, you worry us, that latter is terribly unsafe, we know you were amazing to be able to climb it period, but please be very careful on those for your safety not to fracture your hip joints, OK?
2 thumbs up for not dropping and rolling coming off that ladder 👍👍
This class A is challenging my idea of going with a class C :) Thanks for the review, you two! Great job!
I love the new Intent. The things I don't understand is how Winabego does a 3way gas electic in the Adventurer, but upgrades it to the all electric compressor fridge in the intent, and doesn't give you the porcelain toilet. Also, I need the 2 more powerful AC, because I can't control my temperature well and o get heat exhaustion supper easy.
Agree with your 3 & 3!!
You guys are awesome! My husband and I are looking for our next rv. I noticed you said this rv would never delaminate because of something I didn’t quite understand, but I’m going to watch it again with my husband so he can see this one! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Teresa:)
At least you and Andrea are in the shade make that much cooler for the two of you
Hey Matt and Andrea!!! As always I love seeing y'all's faces and love the video. I saw a little snip last week about a new 2020 Winnebago that looked extremely modern inside with light colors and what looked like a whole new floorplan. It was I think priced either at 299 or 399 but I can't remember as l only caught the tail end. Plus I don't watch any other RV salesmen. I won't ever even be able to own an RV lol and never really thought about it anyway until I happened across your channel and just fell in love with you and Andrea!! So now you're stuck with me and it won't be long before you're stuck with 100,000 and even more subscribers!! 😊 Oh, my point was I would love to see that RV or something similar if you know what I'm talking about and have access to show one sometime Started rambling and completely forgot why I was commenting in the first place 🤦🏻
3 things I like are you two and Una (hope I spelled her name right. I should have really liked this RV, but there was nothing special except the outdoor kitchen.
Good morning RV Review Crew! Hey Matt - you look quite fetching in the blue outfit! Very sharp!
Well, I sit here today with 3 days until retirement and no lumps on my head from the bible-thumps from the Mrs., so this is a good week for me.
And, tomorrow my root canal procedure gets finished! Woohoo! The only thing better than all that is watching another Matt’s RV Review on the Winnebago Intent 31P!
Am I in heaven or what?
Here we go now…
In this coach I like:
+I know Matt is wary of 30-amp motorhomes with two A/C units. But Matt is wary about a lot of things, like he was with the new Ford V8-F53 chassis. Given Winnebago’s track record for quality, I want to believe there are technology and electronic advances which allow the 30-amp/2-AC combination to be a viable option for certain coaches. Note: in the SPECS Matt put up, shows the AC unit at 15K, not two-11.5K units. My bigger concern here is how noisy the A/C units are (which is not disclosed)
+24-foot awning = YUGE, I can’t bring myself to complain about it not being armless as I usually do
+NO CAMP-SIDE SLIDE!
+CONTROLS, DASH, DISPLAYS in the E-450 cab area look fantastic
+Being able to swap out standard propane bottles is very convenient for the owner/operator
Now for things that I did not care for, or I have questions about:
- I like the undermount (I assume) porcelain sink, it’s very sharp and I notice it is downsized a bit to allow more countertop space in the galley - this is GREAT! However, I did not see countertop-level covers for the sink (like the cutting boards over the sink in the Adventurer model). If sink-covers do not come with the Intent, let’s change that! (minor point, I realize)
-The outdoor kitchen which fits under the YUGE 24-foot awning is very nice! However, was there a propane quick connect? I did not see a propane quick connect? An outside kitchen is not a kitchen unless you can cook or heat something.
-The layout is ok; I am not a fan of the main living area TV partially blocking the windows by the dinette. A better option would be for the TV to flip up and down to get it out of the way of the windows and allow for a larger dinette-area window. Even better to swap the location of the dinette and couch and have the TV on a televator which also allows for a large window in the area if the TV is stowed.
-Not too crazy about the blinds (vs. shades)
-Why was the sealant used on the roof black instead of tan to match the roof? Dicor Self-leveling Sealant comes if tan, why did Winnebago use black? I’d like to know the reason this color of Dicor is used by Winnebago.
Finally, MATT! I don’t have my GRIP6 belt yet! I need to prove to the Mrs. that missing church the day I was selected to win a belt was an actual thing! MATT! It’s not a hot-water heater (you don’t need to heat hot-water), it’s just a water-heater! Also, at $100K, this looks like a great-value motorhome.
Love y'all's videos😎
Good sleeping space for the size, like #1, large awning and outdoor kitchen like #2, and swivel seats are great! Dislikes; 1. No washer dryer setup, plastic toilet, lack of rear bumper! Access to the ladder would have been much easier. Great job Matt and Andrea as always, love your videos!
Cons: AC units small, Roof Ladder length, dog house Pros; cockpit design, seats, price. Thanks keep up the great work you two, when we come down to florida we will meet with you for our 2022 RV!
Like the huge awning and the outside intertainment system and kitchen
Matt, God’s gift to RVs! Do a Matt with a halo sticker!
Perfect just to pick up and go🤟❤️
Hey! Got my sticker pack today! Yeah! They would look great on the back of this RV! Need one that says, honk if you Matt’s RV don’t like the pleated shades either. But would probably have insulated curtains made anyway. Do like the overall styling. Happy to see the top bunk fold up. Free upgrade to porcelain! Like the head board. But never been a big fan of the bed going crossway . Because they are almost always a short bed. Knew you were going to pick that stupid ladder ! Lol. Thanks to the two of you for another great review.
Likes: I liked the floor plan. I liked the DIY neutral colors. I like the way the dinette table comes up to counter-top height because it'd be handy as extra food prep space. And I liked the outdoor kitchen (which is huge since I usually say I'd rather have the storage space, but this one just seemed very inviting to use...). Dislikes: That ladder is an accident waiting to happen--boo hiss! I didn't like that there wasn't storage behind the TV in the bedroom (what's back there?). And, although I liked the shower door, the bathroom overall just looked very cheap and generic. Bonus like: I really get a kick out of watching Matt and Andrea. What a great couple. When I'm ready to buy, you'll be top of my list to check with first even though I'm way up north in Minnesota!
I love this vlog. Matt’s so funny.
3 Likes:
1: The amount of features and amenities packed into 31 feet
2: The New Ford V8 Chassis
3: The DIY look works well in this entry level product
3 Dislikes:
1: No rear bumper
2: 30 AMP motor home
3: Plastic Toilet
Love your reviews,. I do hope you guys get some time off for the 4th.
3 things I love
1. Winnie Baggo
2. Class A
3. Cute and short
Matt and Andrea thank you once again for a really enjoyable review. 3 likes: It's a Winnebago, outside kitchen and access with the slide in. 3 dislikes: plastic toilet, the 1 bay with all the hoses looked confusing and is there a new roof sealant (black) now?
I do like this floor plan and all the space for the kitchen counter. I wish there was a window in the bunk house. The “short” dog house is certainly a plus. I thought it was odd that you couldn’t get behind the TV in the bedroom. I am not a fan of a door to the bathroom into the bedroom. I sleep on that side and don’t want to hear anybody in the middle of the night😉 I was not a fan of the wet bay. I really like the outdoor kitchen but you do lose storage with that. Under 32” is awesome!!!!!
Great pad place for puppy to sleep while u driving upfront.
Now, y'all joke about Matt being an athlete and doing his stretches and stuff, but it is actually impressive that he can get up onto a ladder where the lowest step is at his chest height.
Matt, please consider a cheap 1080P drone to do roof videos. Spare us all who care about you a heart check😂. Say no to crack and broke. A cracked back and a broke neck🤣, and use a drone!😁 ...or not, it’s America✊
This unit offers so much for the price. Great value and floorplan. Only thing I didn't like were the non light blocking shades.
Well laid out dash and instrumentation
God's gift to RVs 🤣 Love you guys
😆
The things I do not like:
1. the ladder: deal breaker
2. the amount of space around the sink in the kitchen with the slide out in
3. no auto transfer switch
The 3 things I do like:
1. the interior layout: the seating arrangement, the amount of counter space in the kitchen, the bunk area
2. the simplicity of the turning the driver and passenger seats around
3. the floor plan for this size motorhome
Brian Robertson
You see the short ladder as a dealbreaker? Really? Cheesh. To me the ladder issue is the absolute least-important. Heck, some RV’s don’t even come with ladders.
All that’s needed is to carry a stepladder to more easily access that bottom rung, something which many owners might do anyway to access the higher interior storage areas.
Bad news Matt they are not going to letting fans I don’t think. I wish they were. Love you Matt
Gods gift to ladder climbing 🧗♀️
I own a Jayco Alante which is 30 amp and 2 a/c units. I’ve never had an issue and the motorhome stays cold. Also, being 30 amp, I can use most campsites. I know with a 50 amp, you could just use an adapter, but you wouldn’t be able to use both your 15 a/c units.
I'm hoping Thor is going to be building the AXIS models with the new V8 models in the future. An also Thor build the 24.1 without a slide just 2 swivel chairs with a pedestal table. A true model for couples only please !!!!!
Finest specimen of a physical wreck I’ve ever seen. Hey Matt I got a question, if you were going to purchase a truck camper knowing you would be camping in very low temperatures and snow, what manufacture would you go with and which truck?
Hi Andrea 🥰. Cheers!!!
Highland ridge open range and probably a GMC Sierra 2500
3 things I like: 1. counter top in kitchen, 2.bunks, 3.outside kitchen. Don't likes: 1. toilet on a pedestal--NO! 2.Ladder, 3. No storage in bathroom
Matt Again ? thanks for all your tips. Stay safe. 👊
Thanks Kathy👍
I agree that should be a 50 amp unit also should be on 22.5 inch tires and I agree that ladder is just terrible also the Winnebago seems to just cheat on the entry-level units and if you purchase one you probably won’t buy another Winnebago I don’t understand the marketing?
Right above the license plate frame, was that a little nub to help get up and down the ladder?
Not loving the blinds, not loving the 30 amp service, and no window for the top bunk. Love the counter space, the room layout and that Winnebago's swivels have leg room. Great cup holders!!!
From watching your channel I have become a big fan of the Winnebago brand. This one however is a non starter. Your reaction to this motorhome being 30amps gave me great pause so no thanks. I'd prefer a class C anyway. You and Andrea are the best! oh...and LGM!!! :)
Isn’t putting the kitchen in the slide out, asking for trouble. Deal breaker. Matt talk to the makers to correct this mistake. That goes for baths too. Love the outdoor kitchen.
“Athletic specimen”. Nice
I like the front seat swivel and access because of the less expensive v8. Thats a lot of storage taken by a not so useful outside kitchen which should be optional to cut the price and weight.I like the bunks but those drop down front beds should all be optional on all Class A makes. All power awnings should have the wind sensors and automatically retract when the transmission is engaged.
nice much better then sleep intent hehe I think someone needs to build a camper with a bed and a toilet you can use without a pushout ,,I like simple maybe No pushout
love ya both....i haven't missed one video. So helpful and informative.....you asked what college football team to cheer?? PENN STATE:)))
WOAHHH!!!...an over 30 foot class A with TWO ac's and on a 30 amp service? Nope....next model please!!
Even for a budget rig I don't like the propane set up. But that's fixable like the absence of bathroom porcelain and the missing transfer switch. I don't like the wasted space behind the bedroom TV, or having to remember to Jack up the bed before bringing the slide back in.
I do like the layout and the kitchen counter area as well as the oven. For a budget rig, I wonder about how much the tank sizes are value engineered.
You have to be savvy to buy a value engineered product, meaning understanding if there is a shortcoming that can't be acceptably altered to your satisfaction.
👍 Smashy! No cool spot in the shade??? L: cockpit layout with rotating seats; general furniture layout (did you figure out the couch/bed issue?; kitchen and appliances, oven! Outdoor kitchen. D: no auto transfer switch (just how prone are they to failure?); Dang, moob height roof ladder, even for us toned-types it could do us some serious damage; so-so changing space in bedroom; that ""step" sign is such a hoot, not very visible in the middle of the night. Sorry to hear it's getting so dangerous down there in FL, please stay safe you two. 😷😷😷😷😷!!!!!!
Like the new engine and steering wheel, like the cabinets and the color of the cabinets. Like the kitchen. Dislike, the ladder and no bumper, dislike the roof material, the plastic toilet. Winnebago should offer as options, theater seats, fiberglass roof, bumper, tankless water heater. Also like the truck camper style propane tanks.
Nice, same floor plan as the magnitude and Omni
You need a ladder to get on the ladder lol. So are they just using lower power AC units, or are they alternating them?
Likes: 12v fridge, YAY!!! Bed doesn’t fold, YAY!!! Only 31’ long. Dislikes: no slam latches, plastic toilet, a little tight around the bed.
I wish it was diesel and 50 amp but I like pretty much everything else! Your specs show 60lb LP capacity but I only saw what looks like 2 20lb tanks?
Hello Matt & Andrea,
Likes- the front cabin, the bunks, the outside kitchen.
Dislikes- the toilet, the shades, there is nowhere to put your C-Pap machines by the bed.
Like TV replacement, offer of free porcelain toilet queen bed: also like hanging area in bunk area; don’t like plastic toilet, lack of washer/dryer hookup and no cover on stovetop
Matt
Download an app called "centriq" its an app that gives you online manuals and parts lists for all kinds of appliances
we want a matt on a ladder sticker!
😂
I really love this rig they do so much with it just wish the towing capacity would be higher then 5,000lbs that is the one draw back that I can see
I feel its important .if you are a flat lender V8 might be ok .
If you are a mountaineer you need a V10 for strength and durability some times you have spend the cash get a diesel for the power
The new Ford V8 similar or better power than the V10. I agree with you on diesel
Inside chopped up. 30 amp service and 11,000 ac. No bumper high ladder. New motor combination+, dog box reduction +. Color scheme+
i have been watching your videos for a couple of months now because you are so crazy and fun to watch! But i have a question? When you Matt were climbing the ladder why did you throw up that hand sign (5:10 mark)? And what was the meaning of that hand sign? Keep up with the great videos!
He just means rock on. No bad intent by it. We are Christians❤️
Don't like the propane set up and the 30amp for 2AC
WINNEBAGO is renown for fiberglass roofs. There is a trend happening with newer models where they are going cheap on the roof which is a HUGE part of RV maintenance and prevention of expensive maintenance later. Even an aluminum roof is better than TPO or especially old school rubber roofs. Don’t go all “other brand” cheap Winnebago, please. Price point isn’t worth losing that Winnebago brand roof. Even if Winnebago takes a hit for the team to keep the famous fiberglass roof, which would be better than being greedy; overall, return and new customers would make the difference regardless.😁
Keeping in mind this is entry level...
Pro
Floor plan and seating areas
Kitchen area
Single big slide
Cons
30 amp coach
Tiney 4.0 Generator. A/Cs and microwave usage?
PVC roof seems cheap
Hot tip: You should spend at least five minutes inside these motor homes *BEFORE* you start shooting the video tour, so that you can familiarize yourself with things like turning the sofa or dinette into a bed, accessing various under the seat storage areas, or swiveling the seats. I've seen you just give up on it too many times, and although I realize that you're doing so in the interest of moving the video along, there are a lot of people watching who think to themselves, "Gee ... This guy sells these things for a living, and if he can't get the sofa to deploy into a bed, then it must be pretty damn difficult." As a result, you may have already had a once prospective buyer cross the rig off their list before you've even made it past the refrigerator.
i love the fact that it sleeps 9
i love the amount of storage
i love the outdoor kitchen
three dislikes
the shower is a little bit to small
the microwave is a little small for me
i cant think of third
