- 2021 Holiday Rambler Armada 44LE
Hey everyone welcome back to another video! Today I am super excited were taking a look at the newest and hottest diesel pusher on the market! This is the 2021 Holiday Rambler Armada 44LE! This is a 44ft tag axle diesel pusher that I think is going to disrupt the RV Industry. Holiday Rambler is made by REV Group, So this is the sister product to the Fleetwood Discovery LXE. What is new for the 2021's is the steerable tag axle which is a feature found on the highest of tag axle motorhomes so its really exciting to see it on this product! Traditionally in my opinion the fleetwoods have always had the edge of the Holiday Ramblers.... Well the tables have turned with the Armada and the Nautica.

Three things I like -
1. Super-sturdy truck chassis
2. Improvements to the slide-outs
3. That Kitchen!
Three things I don't like:
1. Should have gone with wider tire on the front, at least.
2. The Dometic cooler is awkwardly sized, taking up too much of the bay.
3. The title does not appear to have my name on it, darnit!
Matt, we love your videos, we love your presentations. You have taken RV reviews to a new level - we've seen 'em all - yours are the Best!
Agreed 👍
Also agree 👌
Totally agree. With so much to ❤️ but 👎3 additional major items must be improved for size, weight and price range:
👎SAFETY FLAW: Huge Driver Blind Spot passenger side between door and windshield. Solution: All steel SuperStructure cab as Winnebago does.
👎SAFETY FLAW: Without All Steel Cab SuperStructer Bunk over Driver and passenger, DEADLY in front and front offset collusion and blocks front door to exit and enter really bad in case of fire. Without an all steel SuperStructure cab, ALL drop down bunks over driver/passenger should ALWAYS have a mid coach entry door. Redesign Please!
👎SAFETY FLAW: Rear Radiator: For length and weight easy to OVERHEAT when towing, going up steep grades and in high altitudes. In this price range MUST HAVE SIDE radiator.
👎Tilt-a-bed they wear-out mattress, uncomfortable and always seem to malfunction
👎Can mobile eye be placed lower (and square) on windshield?
❤️Colors of Everything
❤️Rear Bathroom counter space, critical for contact lenses, hair dryer, curling iron, makeup, etc.
❤️Outside Storage Bays crowned openings will not leak
❤️No carpet in storage compartments
❤️Overheard Wipers
❤️Paint colors and design
❤️Rear Ladder
❤️Steer Tag Axel
Totally!
Matt and Andrea! My two favorite all-time RUclips video makers! This is a Mona Lisa of its class!
3 "lists" of things I love about this Motor home.
1. the colors, white, Gray/ soft/beautiful lights, and the ceiling is amazing. Glad to see they are starting to make the ceilings classy instead of bland. The cabinets/colors are amazing. Full-size Frig with ice maker! Who does that? Great, Great Design, and very well-thought-out. Bravo! Bravo!
2. shower fits a wheelchair /double sink/toilets in closets- so clean! Heated flooring, the induction stove! A dream. Whoever designed this RV should get one free! Then sell it to me half off lol.
3. stackable washer dryer combo/ dishwasher/fireplace/televator/ pull out Island, an over the cab bunk 5oo lbs! Shades are on target. This is an award-winning Motor home.
What could someone complain about?
3 things I dislike about this motor home.
1. My clothes are not in the closets, my cat isn't on the bed, my shoes aren't by the door. And my car isn't being towed behind it going down the road.
2. Its name "Kenya's Queen' isn't painted on the side of the Motor home yet.
3. What I really, really, dislike about this motor home, is I won't stop thinking about this motor home. What weight can this tow? Could it tow a -let's say a Saab 9-3- behind it? :-)
Someone did their homework on this design. I want to thank them for listening. They put a lot of thought behind it, and I am so glad they did. Ok, that's it... you two stay safe and stay sweet and charming...
Like the new intro!! Glad to see Andrea getting her props.
4Cs = Cupholder, Computer tray, Connections (power/USB), Comfort.
I was going to say the same thing.. 4 C’s comfort cup holder computer tray and connections for computer phone ect;
The print on the wall is Abstract Expressionist but that light fitting on the ceiling looks a lot Art Deco to me:)
You hit it on the head! Exactly right! That light looks like it belongs in any of the lobbies of famous Art Deco sky’s scrappers buildings here in NYC..... but still I can’t get enough of Matt’s face when he does the “ is this Art Deco ?! 👀”
The backsplash is art deco. But I like it.
Love, love the master bathroom, it makes you feel like you're at home! Someone can be on the toilet and someone else can be bathing or brushing their teeth, while guest are using the other restroom, love it!😃😉
Now Andrea has the Perfect Prime Passenger Position!!!! Yay 😃
Chair comfort craft color?
🤣👏🏾
Oy my gawd! It's gawgeous! LOL Thanks for the shout out, buddy! OK, honestly, this is a really nice motorhome. Love the interior colors (we love the lighter colors and are leaning towards the gray/white for our next one), the fireplace, and the shower! I'm not digging the ladders HR is using. They look so unstable and I'm praying watching you go up and down. Awesome tour - thanks guys! - MJ
What I love about all your videos is that you always show the RV with the slide closed at first! It is so important to see what is accessible while being on the road! Your reviews are so honest and "first impression like" that every review feels refreshing and exciting to watch!
I would complain about the ladder, but I don’t think the prospective owners will ever use it themselves 😏
I'm an old guy and use the lader in my 2017 Navion 2 to 3 times a year ensuring I inspect and maintain the roof system per factoy schedule. Prior planning prevents poor performance and in this case leaks.
Yes a t-shirt with Matt coming down a ladder saying “Here we go now!” I laugh every time. 😜
That is at-shirt I would buy! 👍💝
WOW. Thank you, Matt and Andrea. Don't forget us cat lovers. ❤️
Where do you store the covers for the sink and stove top and should have figure a way to use the covers as extra counter top extension. I like full size bathroom fan and the hide away TV. also the security camera control over the bed. I agree with Matt that it need hard wire buttons along with remotes and phone apps.
Matt you missed an opportunity when admiring the exterior paint to ask if it was art deco...
Love the new opening awesome cartoon with both of you in it in the camera hilarious all you need now is some plush doll figures of you guys and have them on your website for sale that would be awesome
Absolutely love love love the white cabinets! Hopefully all manufacturers will start designing with light interiors!
Keep those reviews coming
WOW another Holiday Rambler game changer.
The design team at HR is certified On Fire!
Love the opening credits of your channel. You two are tops, never miss your channel. Keep doing what you're doing, THE BEST! You guys are educating us all the time.
"Today, I am super exciting."
You sure are, Matt. You sure are.
Now that is what humor looks like.
I listened twice to make sure he said that..then I saw you mentioned it! LOL..good catch!
I caught that too LOLOLOL!!!
Nice slide out exterior storage. A dedicated spot for the in laws!! 😂 Looks like the person sitting in the one chair at the table might bonk their
head/shoulder on the surround. Very very pretty rig!
The whole "art deco?" bit cracks me up everytime!
After the Nautica, I saw the Armada from the Holiday Rambler channel! I’m Soooo happy you reviewed it!! This is my DREAM coach! Andrea... we have the same taste! I love, love, love the colors! Love you guys... love your format! Keep it up!!
love The Chassis, the style and design, private WC in Master is genius, kitchen is great , Matt and Andrea are awesome duo
I love everything about this motor home. It’s really nice. I’m with Matt on the technology for the phone thing for the awning. But other than that it’s a great motor home. And Andrea I love how you have the 4 C’s like Matt with the the PPPPs. And I thought it was cute when you mentioned Izzy and MJ. Nice couple like you both are. They mention you as well. You all are great people and I love watching you! Great motor home!👍👍👍👍Sherri Weber
Such a beautiful coach. We love the light colors, the huge shower with a seat, and the private water closet.
Holiday Rambler is steeped up their game & will put a hurting on the market. The colors are amazing!!!
Love diesel, layout decor, shower, didnt so much remotes vs switches , ladder rear, no stinky slinky spot bumper. Absolutely Beautiful Diesel Coach - thanks for great video review Matt and Andrea.
Love the White kitchen cabinets those are my favorite about this RV. And Master bedroom is out of this world beautiful with the double sinks , stackable washer and dryer. Wow 🤩
There are no dislikes! Love the color schemes , love the master bath, very classy! My favorite so far... actually I dislight what looks like storage in small bath. Great Job Matt....and Andrea! You guys are the best....also I love the cabinet for cookie sheets and muffin pans! You never see that in motor homes!
We love your guys' energy and honest reviews! We look forward to seeing you next year at one of the Florida shows! Great job!
Wow...I bet that rig EATS Class B's for breakfast!!!! I needed this guys...thank you! I was hoping to see 40+ ft. RV that doesn't mess around. :)
Thank you for bringing back the section of the review where you bring the slide outs out
Beautiful motorhome. Love the colours inside and out. Layout not bad but not perfect. My only complaint, it should have a side radiator instead of the rear radiator. Makes engine maintenance much easier.
OMG! Absolutely gorgeous! Never in a million years would I ever be able to afford one of these, but, WOW! Love the interior! Love the kitchen and LOVE that shower!
Dear Matt...the perfect way to keep track of a remote is to keep it attached to a cabinet or wall with a photo hanging/hook & loop Command Strip. Go ahead and push those buttons whenever need be with no frustration. I agree with everything the two of you stated for likes and dislikes. Over-the-top rig!! Beautifully put together!
My oh my!!! Love the lightness, the ceiling lights!!!
Love everything about this RV. Question: how does the water run off the roof when it has those raised sides?
This here motorhome is eye popping 👀! Absolutely amazing! Dislikes; the ladder on the back, the awning remote that Matt mentioned and that’s it! Only 2 I could come up with! Likes everything else, even the slide pantry type shelves, dishwasher, bathrooms 🚽! Even the price is reasonable with what you get! Love the videos you 2 stay safe and look forward to more!
It’s perfect! I love every single thing about this motor home! The colors are wonderful. I especially love the master bathroom with the two sinks in the master countertop. I wish I had something I dislike but I don’t.
This is the nicest motor home I've ever seen!
I love the tilt a bed, because when you're not sleeping, you have much more room to walk around.
The fit and finishes are just amazing.
My house in Florida cost 310,000!! Lol
Forgot to say that I absolutely love the colors and the use of white and lighter tones adds to the feeling of it being airy and elegant.
Oh. All need the light interiors! It’s so uplifting and gives spaciousness!
I love the decor, the high end finishes, the full slide out, and the fireplace!
For me they absolutely nailed not only the outside storage but the interior colors are perfection! No 70’s colors !!!! Yes!!!!! It is perfect including what you are getting for the price. Well designed, I love this. It is gorgeous.
Call911 ! I just passed out looking at that GORGEOUS bathroom! I'll say it again...FINALLY interiors of RV'S got out of the 90's.
Love the new intro but I love it more when you look forward during your jump. That is talent don't loose it
This RV is perfect and that shower is insane. All RVs should have a shower that size. 👍🏻🇺🇸
Three dislikes. 1) it's not mine.
2) it's above my pay grade.
3) the ladder on the back.
Three things I love. 1) are you freaking kidding me!. # Gorgeous !
2) Matt and Andrea!
3) seriously, I love this!
Ditto :)
Thank y'all for giving us a glimpse into how the other half lives. I personally like the creativity of use of space in the smaller rigs.
Everything from the outside to the inside that you guys touched on , everything is awesome, sweet!! This is the best RV that you guys have shown since I've been watching your reviews....Matt quit nit pickin ....the RV is fantastic..great review guy's..
If I was looking to buy I would most definitely watch his videos first to get educated...This is a great Mobile Home...For this to be a new product this is great!! A home away from Home and a great home to live in!!!
Three things i love: the cabinets, driver's instrumentations, the light in the living room. I actually have more than three things. I love the outside storage, absolutely love the colors of the furniture!! Three things I don't like: no propane for outside cooking, stove. Okay, more love: the main bathroom!!❤️❤️
Loved this RV. But what was going on with the hole in the wall in the bedroom?
My question too!
I thought the same thing. At this price they should have all the holes covered.
I noticed that too and wondered about it, also.
I noticed that, too. What is supposed to be there?
Also my question I was surprised they did not address it because its hard to miss.
Love love love the interior colors. Love the residential fridge. Love the engine/torq size. I want this!!
Thanks for the great review Matt!
Great Coach Holiday Rambler!!! You/ve knocked this one out of the park. Game changer at this price point!!!
OMG
This was so beautiful from the kitchen to the bathroom. Keep up the great work
Beautiful motor home and layout is great. Matt when you said "phenomenal price" did you mean "Astronomical price"? This is for a member of the 2% club that are blessed to afford it. Great presentation and love the intro to give props to Andrea. Stay safe ya'll.
You 2 do an awesome job on the reviews. Thank you. 3 likes: Exterior colors, interior space and bathroom counter top space. 3 dislikes: no outside kitchen, length (way too long for me) and water coming out of the outside TV compartment.
The Master Bathroom is elegant & classy!!
Tremendous storage design.
The kitchen: pull out peninsula, dishwasher, sink. WOW!
The furniture looks plush & comfy.
I’m a HUGE fan of the kitchen table! Most people need an office area and this fills the bill.
Color scheme Is done very well
I agree there should be a button for the awning for the very reasons Matt discussed.
WELL DONE🙌🙌🙌
Love, love, love this RV. Beautiful color scheme and accessories. ❤️
Things I think can improve with this RV.
1. Matt might have forgotten to show the Gennie, but if there was none I dont like it.
2. The position if things on the roof makes it difficult to fit a roof rack. Leave more space in the middle.
3 If you put up just a little red and yellow in that painting you get some more color in the whole RV. Right now it just blinds in too much.
4. For the price tag and quality of this RV I should you should go with some higher quality active safety from example the Veoneer products.
A. Collision control, lane assist, vision camera and radar that auto breaks the RV should there be an accident ahead or a pedestrian, bicyclist or larger animal on roas. There is even IR vision camera that will catch deer and other animals in the dark and break in time.
5. I did not see a exhaust vent on the outside from the cooktop.
6. Great with a dishwasher but I like to see a real oven.
7 remove the extra small toilet and install a better closet there instead.
8. Let codriver be more part if the driving. Perhaps a remote tablet in that position to join the driving. Laptop table. More outlets.
I love
1. The shower. Both Andreia and Matt can shave their legs.
2. Colors inside and out.
3. General layout.
This is gorgeous!!!! I know I'll never be able to afford one of these but man, what a beautiful motorhome! The only dislike I have is that I can't afford it! LOL! I thought the Nautica was beautiful, but this is really the bomb! I love everything about this unit! Great job Holiday Rambler! Another great video guys! Thanks again for this review!
Absolutely one of the best floor plans I've seen in a class A or any Rv
Probably one of the MOST incredible motor homes I and my husband have ever seen. Truly beautiful! Any chance you can get it in a darker leather as well as darker decor?
Thank you again Matt and Andrea for “bringing it on!”
Lisa & Randy Cauthen
Very nice HR. We are in Decatur as this video airs down the street where they are made. My wife is in love with the cabinets and kitchen.
I absolutely SMASHED that thumb up button. Ran around the house, drank some whiskey, head butted the goat, grabbed some honey from the hive...and then...I hit the thumb up.
Awesome RV. And your right about the comparison inside and out with the price point with the higher end motor homes. I didn't even mind the "water closet" in the master bathroom. There was one thing I"m not for sure on though; before opening the slides, the mid-bath door looked a little tight when opening. I'm not for sure if I could squeeze in the bathroom with the slides closed. The Discovery 40M had that problem for us and had to mark it off our list. I'm curious if this makes our list. It sure is hard to with the beauty it has to offer. Might just take the door off and put up a curtain.
Love the double recliner and T.V placement, bathrooms, and kitchen...prefer button for awnings
I just love you guys energy and love for each other. Now, I have to say this RV would have been a contender with the Fleetwood Discovery LXE, if it had the tv/fireplace across from the sofa in the living room. Matt and Andrea we need you guys to do an Entegra Coach Anthem 44B (the entegra anthem is our first choice but the fleetwood discovery is the close second). Oh, Matt you're not fat; Andrea just has more to love😉😉
A-Mazing RV. I can’t think of one dislike.
The toilet room (water closet) is a definite like. The secret to a happy marriage....2 words, WATER CLOSET ! 😊😂
I love the double sofas! So much space to entertain.
Love just about everything. Was wondering why there did appear to be any safety netting around the drop down cab bed.
For the algorithm: Probably the nicest new coach I've seen you review. The only thing I don't have use for is the dishwasher. Most people will never use it except for storage. Not a fan of the app controled awnings. Might need them even if your cell phone doesn't have a signal.
Everything else appears to be top notch. Nice layout. Exterior finish looks really good. Actually surprised you have a tag axle pusher on the lot. My wife and I always play guess the price. I figured north of $350k. Came in pretty close after the discount.
Sorry I missed you guys when you were down here in Tampa.
Andrea - Suggestion for the 4 Cs criteria: Comfort. Soft comfortable, good material, footrest too. Contoured - with lumbar support, dual arm rests. Controlled - should be just as many adjustable as the driver seat. Convertible - for use as another seat in the coach.
This is beautiful. The seats look so comfy. And the color 🔥.
New intro is cute!
The “little brother” was beautiful. This one is simply GORGEOUS!!!
Liked:
Exterior storage & the freezer
Driver’s area
Tilt/adjustable steering column
Interior design
Extended backsplash
Dish washer
Big Fridge
Storage space
The large, lovely shower
Adjustable table area
Pull out cupboard? proving additional counter space
Large convection oven
Pull out pantries
Dislike
Farm house sink (personal bias)
Prefer divided sink (⅓ , ⅔)
Overall FANTABULOUS!!!!
I'm so blown away right now! This 2021 Holiday Rambler Armada 44LE is like a mansion on wheels.
Wow must admit what i would like to see especially on a Cadillac is the removable counter top for sink and stove top .make a slot to put them away or add counter space with them 😀 just in the way great video you 2 as always ;)
I would probably take them out & leave them in the garage at home. Then when I went to trade the thing in I would be hunting high & low to find them.
I believe the skinny vertical cabinet to the left of the dishwasher was the storage spot for the sink and induction top covers. It looked like a perfect spot for them. You can view it at the 20:21 mark in the video.
Love this new Holiday Rambler. Gorgeous motorhome! There are a lot more than 3 likes. Love the colors, dinette, livingroom seating and televator, favorite farmhouse sink, beautiful cabinetry, gorgeous master bathroom, and so much more. Dislike price, exterior TV is too high, no traditional oven.
Thanks Matt and Andrea. We love you guys. Keep them coming.
Next time, will you please show us how the passenger floor closes over stairwell? Take care and stay well!
Absolutely love the color scheme................so nice not to see those dark, dreary colors. Great job!!!!!!!
Amazing!!! Gorgeous! Stunning!
Likes..the sink and stove top placement, switched from the norm, master bath, nice big tail lights..dislikes..how the water drains from the ac's , latter , and like Matt said would like buttons instead of remotes or apps. I am in love with this one.
Must say I love Matt’s skipping. Meant to say that in my first comment ever. It shows he loves what he does. Andrea too. She’s always so excited and amazed. Lol
4c- comfortable/comfort. Convenience/convenient. Clear for Conversation/communication.controls capabilities
Love the colors, love the backsplash and tiles. Beautiful bathroom. Can't find any dislikes.
Fantastic 👏 and I think that you guys deserve this RV Motor Home 🏡 ❤ 😀
Stunning....stunning stunning!!!!
Love the backsplash.
Wow! What an amazing coach
The best. So well made. I agree about the bed and awning. It can’t possibly cost that much for over ride buttons
Great review and that is a nice motor home! I’m a big fan of motor homes with a tag axle.
My 3 Faves
The color scheme
Shower - Spacious - beautiful tiles- storage- double sink
Kitchen- Huge fridge-Dishwasher-sink- Love it all
Dislikes
Awning needing an app to operate
Heavy cutting boards :)
Love you, guys! You are awesome! Matt, are you losing weight?
I can’t afford it :’(
This is an absolutely gorgeous RV. There is so much to love. One would have to be very finicky to find many dislikes.
This is stunningly beautiful RV!
My wife isn't crazy about Class-A's but I think this model might just win her over. Great presentation Matt & Andrea!
This is an unbelievable awesome rig , no joke . I don’t dislike anything. Love U guys .
Loves:
1. Kitchen, it's seriously the best I've seen
2. Bath, I love having the water closet private
3. The whole color scheme, interior & exterior
Dislikes:
1. Location of fireplace, when using the dining area it seems poorly located
2. Price of course
3. Electronic location, seems like Matt was kneeling on the passenger seat to access the panel.
Overall the coach was incredible. Thanks for the tour
Absolutely beautiful! Love, love, love almost everything about it. Only two things I dislike: 1) the price point (lol); and, 2.) agree with Matt on no way to simply push a button to deploy the awning. Much easier to punch a button than spend time hunting for cell phone or remote control.
Gorgeous. Love the front driver passenger seats
Matt, in the main bathroom toilet is in what we call a water closet high-end homes have that 90% of the time very desirable just thought I would let you know. You're doing a great job
That’s the most amazing DECO of ART I have ever seen!! 👍
I think with the size of this coach the kitchen could be bigger and I definitely agree with you Matt about the master toilet, didn’t need to be closed in. You guys do a great job with these videos, keep em coming, I’m hoping by the Fall I’ll be ready to buy. I’m leaning to a class C to live in.
