The exterior TV......DVD... Seriously... I believe the new standard is 4K, or at least bare minium a Blu-ray... And as far as going down the road, and wanting a drink that may be at the back of the fridge, ya better have arms like E.T. cause ya ain't gonna be opening that fridge any wider.... or what if your in a cramped area where you are parked, and you want to access the fridge, well forget that idea. LOL
Not a big fan of Mercedes chassis in a B+ or small C. I like the Renegade RV package and quality. Do they offer it with a Ford F550 or F53 chassis option. That would get my attention, as I believe the Ford platform is superior, with options for a 7.3L gas or 6.7 L diesel power trains.
You can t beat Sprinter when it comes to van. Build quality is better, reliability it s top class, Sprinter 4x4 is superior compared to toher van. Sprinter is voted most reliable van in the UK ahead of VW transporter and Transit.
Was wondering what difference in mpg and quality would the Mercedes gas engine make. Also how is the Ford Transit diesel compared to the Mercedes diesel? I understand that torque is important. MPG is an important factor for me.
I really don't think it is. The View/Navion fridge run on 12v DC and not propane, they have one induction burner and one gas so that you don't have to cook with propane and save it if you want. It also comes with 200 watts of solar and not 170. Although that is not anything to brag about it will barely trickle charge you batteries so don't expect to go boon docking for any length of time and expect so have solar to power everything you will be using your gen set. remember you can only discharge 50% of a lead acid battery before you start to damage it. So out of 200 amps hours of battery you only can use 100 amp hours of it.The View/Navion also has a 2000 watt inverter and not a 1200 watt like the Vienna. I also think that there setup for power, wet area's and storage areas are better designed but that is JMHO. The one thing that I did like is the auto leveling on the View/Navion it is an add on and not standard. ruclips.net/video/BrUJLaTPGB8/видео.html
mercedes has the only van whose body panels flex from spray foam. they are the only ones who install sensors in their OEM parts so if you replace them with non OEM parts they can tell and will make the car perform worse on purpose as a way to punish you for not buying their overpriced parts. mercedes has been coasting on the reputation they earned in the 80s and very early 90s for decades now. they are not a quality brand and it's a real shame to see the rv industry refusing to admit that. you should use a quality brand to build on.
Couldn't disagree more. Ford decided to get away from that anemic V10 and go with their 7.3L. Why not go with a sensible powerplant and go with the Power stroke since it is finally a reliable unit.
This is my second video I'm watching in November 2021. Are there brochures available so I can compare models? Can't remember the difference between the two models. This model has the rear bath. The sofa faces the refrigerator but half is looking at the kitchen and TV. The other model has the bedroom moved to the back wall. Difficult decision to make. I do like the longer counter. Also are there any plans for a Ford or Ram chassis? Could you send me some brochures? I can contact you through email.
Sprinter is a better van than for instance Transit. Better build quality and superior safety features, also Sprinter 4x4 is the best on van category. Sprinter is voted most reliable van in the UK this year.
@@jonpetter8921 I concur with your criticism of the Ford Transit van. I do not trust direct fuel injection turbocharged gas engines. Too much to go wrong. I do not hate the Mercedes chassis and power train. I just think a real truck (such as the Ford F550 with powerstroke diesel) is a more proven, reliable option.
When you mentioned the tons ans tons of active safety features....an imperial ton is 1000 lbs. tons is a weight ,measurement. So with tons and tons......does it mean at list 2000 lb. How is it in relation to the ......what was it 1000 lb loading capacity? Pls explain
Nice rv, but It is only a matter of time before all the rv companies start copying Leisure Van with the curved aerodynamic box while all others just have a rectangular bread box on back. Regency copied Leisure with the same curved body on a couple of their models.
One of the very few channels that actually understand the importance of showing the rv with the slide IN!!!
Great thorough walk thru. Thanks! Cheers from Houston!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍great job - so much thought and quality put into how you built and executed all the construction - just superior execution - awesome
Another excellent presentation and a very nice coach. Thanks Ben!
Thank you so much for such a detailed walkthrough!
All right, it's about time for an IWS review :-)
This was one of the best explanations of an RV that I've seen. Really nice job. Thanks
excellent camera work and commentary
Very nice detailed overview of this vehicle.
Nice I love the color
I’m in love!! Beautiful!!

ÀàaaaàààààààaaààŹźźàaààźźàààaaźàźźaàaaa
This is the reason I prefer the Leisure Travel Van Murphy bed layout. Fully usable with all slides in.
this is about the exact same size as my Thor, but its about 5x as nice
IWS Sales, it’s not the camera, it’s in your software. Otherwise your logo and branding would be in focus. Those were applied during production.
Nice size.. A great camper
Bathroom door swing should be handed opposite, in my opinion.

How is it in the snow?
Put it on the ford transit chassis and you really got my attention🤔
Nice. Is it really better than the Winnebago navion /view?

Negative: No compressor fridge option.
Didn't show the murphy bed
What is overall length? Major issue not mentioned?
Storage doors open wrong way for campgrounds
I would switch the dinette and Murphy bed
Can u lower the MB with slides out in?
Agreed with earlier comments, put on new Ford chassis and you will have a winner.
Couldn't disagree more. Ford decided to get away from that anemic V10 and go with their 7.3L. Why not go with a sensible powerplant and go with the Power stroke since it is finally a reliable unit.
Very nice unit, but too bad about the de-rating. I'd need something that can haul my toys!
Don’t quit your day job🙏

I want one of it..😥
Nice job Ben! Just don't like anything about this coach. Do a walk through on the veracruze please.
Looks pretty low to the ground. How long can I boondock with this one.
OK Partner
👍
Too bad its on the Mercedes, great engine but low cargo carrying capacity. 1000 lbs? That's way too low

@@hvacgypsy9356 Sure. It depends your needs. Some likes more space, higher roof other prefer greater power train and higher clearance

Its an expression meaning lots and lots! ALOT
Only 1000# cargo! FAIL

Accident rating. 😁
everything but the defibrillator haha , , , coming soon i'm sure, , , renegade is far superior in the RV industry
Beautifull plz give it to me free
Who forced him to do this video lmao
A/C what KInd? you did not give a great review
