Who says you can't be a "rock star" when selling trailers. This guy was amazing! Airstream in concert!
Thank you very much.
Rockstar trailer salesman??? I guess they are right up there with used car salesman and Amway guys....lol Skewed Hero worship, I guess it's no worse than sports figures and Hollywood celebrities or Casey Neistat
@@samrock7632 You try making a RUclips video
I love that trailer. Always love to watch Patrick he goes above and beyond to show those rigs like the set up of beds etc. He is awesome.
Thank you very much.
Romana
How much?
Romona, let's go half on a Basecamp 20X with all the options. I'm game.
Im a loner. I’ll have to pass on that offer.
@@rrhopewell oddly enough- you stole my line. Fair enough 🙏
Have watched several of Patrick’s videos in doing Airstream research, and his are among the best!
Thank you very much.
Extremely thorough. The best video trailer tour I've watched! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the video, Patrick:) Usually, when I watch a walkthrough video it raises a lot of questions in my mind but not with Patrick. He is so thorough and covers everything in detail. Mr. Airstream...lol
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for getting the price out of the way upfront kudos to you! Most RUclipsrs seem so hesitant to tell you the price it's like pulling teeth LOL.
I appreciate that!
How much is it? 👍🏼😀
@@jacksongil9123 Around $45,000.00.
I really like the height of the fridge. No more crawling on hands and knees to use the fridge.
It does make things easier.
Agree! Love the height and that it is a co pressure fridge. Hate those tiny fridges on the floor.
YAS! This makes all the difference with a bad back.
Patrick, your review is hands down the best on RUclips!
Wow, thanks!
Great video as always, Patrick! Wasn’t a fan of the original Basecamp, but I love this. More storage, bigger frig, love the extra seating. Much better overall layout. Really just needs a sink in the wet bath and it’d be my favorite single axle AS model. Brushing my teeth in the kitchen sink is a non-starter.
Thank you for the feedback.
I was as impressed by the tour as the Basecamp! Great job.
Glad you liked it!
I love watching your videos about RV’s because you give great detail and perspective. No one else does it like you! Thanks.
I appreciate that!
I have a 2018 which I love but this is perfect for two. Usually I prefer to leave the bed made up and just spend most of my time outside to eat etc. The bigger fridge is awesome plus the bath window 👍. I would miss the bigger kitchen area in mine. Overall I am very happy with mine. I didn’t care for the Nest with just one door. You do the best walkthroughs Patrick! Whenever people look at mine and want more info I just refer them to you. It definitely gets a lot of attention 😎
Thanks for the information.
I can say the best demonstration of the basecamp. Thank you .
Thank you. I sell them too at Colonial Airstream.
Patrick, these videos are great, but i laugh because you always give the disclaimer that 'these are by no means a 4 season trailer'. I used my basecamp 16 to work remotely and ski all winter and spring every week from Thursday - Sunday boondocking with water in the tanks in a ski resort parking lot and its done fine in temperatures down to 7' F with most nights around 15' F. That said, I wouldn't do it straight from the factory with no additional preparation with water in the tanks. I'm only confident because I upgraded to lithium batteries and always carry along a backup generator, catalytic propane heater, an extra full propane tank, a couple bottles of RV antifreeze and everything i need to quickly winterize if the furnace fails. I'd argue that it can be a 4 season trailer.
Excellent information.
Yo Patrick, awesome walk through as always your videos top notch and very informative. Thank you thank you very much. Love this Base Camp
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great to see you back in action ! Great video as always. Informative and entertaining with a natural style that doesn’t feel you’re trying to “sell” it.
Much appreciated!
Great looking package, impressive back door, seems to be a new feature.
The back hatch has been standard since 2017.
No
Awesome trailer and very in depth walk through. For 54K I expect higher battery capacity and a (edit : 2000) watt inverter.
Thank you for your feedback.
200 watt or 2000 watt? Maxxair fan instead of the (not so) fantastic fan (junk), standard micro convection, storage under front dinette, 320w of flexible solar panels, Lagun table leg, foam insulation etc
@@CanadianTexaninLiguria 2000 watt. Fat finger.
Hey Patrick. You do an excellent job with the walk thru and walk around outside, explaining stuff that others just don't. Kudos to you. Love your videos and also love your other channel! Keep those 2021 videos coming. Thank you. 👌👍
Thanks, will do!
Great video and mostly an improvement over the smaller model except the window shades. Why would they design straps over the glass and rolled shades that take up almost 1/4 of the window? That really obstructs the incredible views from that model.
Thank you for your input. Have not had any customers concerned with the shades yet.
I always enjoy Patrick's videos.
Thank you very much.
I love how tbis guy touches everything.
Its like an intimate experience he is so into the stuff he is showing.
Thank Katie
Just put a deposit down on one! See you guys next year, looking forward to it😁
Sounds good!
Ill be making it lol
If Airstream is listening, the microwave need to be lower and the option for a convection microwave, get rid of the storage/bungee racks and put some cabinets, and a sink in the bathroom.
Thank you for the suggestions.
Great you get to the point and you tell us the price Nice
Glad you liked it!
50,000
What a cool product. I would have lived in it during my college days (100 years ago). Still, I am extremely happy with my 28' International Serenity. I love your videos on Airstream products because you are so knowledgeable. Thank you again.
That is awesome! Thank you.
The bathroom toilet paper never gets wet at all as long as that door of it is closed
it is designed to be water resistant.
Patrick sure knows his stuff. Good presentation. I want one.
Thank you very much.
Excellent walk through... 2 questions though: You mention the interior aisle tie downs for if you wanted to carry a kayak inside; what is the length of the the interior aisle (rear door to under the front bench)? and, what is the width between the rear benches (with and without table posts- want to see if there's enough room to carry 2 turned on their side)?
It is 13' from the back door to the dinette post and 33" wide at the benches.
Thanks, Patrick! You do great product reviews!
Glad you like them!
This guy does it right. GVWR and MSRP right off the bat
Glad you enjoyed it.
Dam, that view from those windows is incredible. What genius designed this, perfect camper trailer, amazing. Perfect size.
Glad you like it!
Great job on this video as it was by far the most informative and detailed explanation of the features of the Base Camp 20X. By the way, I also just ordered a 2022 version scheduled for January delivery from Austin, TX. Can't wait to explore! Thanks again for the awesome video!
Glad it was helpful! We sell them to here at Colonial Airstream.
This is a well planned living space....
& Having Clearance is great.....
Thanks for the Great Tour Patrick....
You're the Best....
You are so welcome
I love Airstreams -
Thank you for checking us out.
Hi Patrick, glad to see Colonial doing more walkthroughs. Still say Airstream needs to have you do their walkthroughs, you do such an excellent job! Cute little TT, and I’m impressed with not only the storage, but with the porcelain toilet.
That's the plan!
Excellent review of a very innovative camper! Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
That was a phenomenal presentation, in accordance with the product they sell. Well done!
Thank you very much. Go for it.
Great review and walk through. So, if you still check the tube. What kind of vehicle would i need to tow the trailer? I just have a car right now....
Daniel, you will need a SUV or pickup that can tow 5000# or more and has a compatible hitch weight of 500# or more.
I am thankful Airstream seems to really listen or watch for user feedback in their design upgrades. Everything about this Airstream Basecamp 20X is what I hope for to travel part time in a trailer with my pets. Great review Patrick! Always wonderful. I cannot wait to get there to get one, praying for next year.
Couldn't agree more!
I want. I need!!!! Great camera work and editing btw.
Thanks so much!
I wish i have 1 of those and try it in the philipines full time living
That would be nice.
Very excellent video. Such detail!
Thank you very much!
Thanks Patrick! I need to pick one of these up when I get back to work
You should!
Thanks for making such a great video! It really helps to see how everything goes together.
You are so welcome!
Patrick. Great demo. I have watched this multiple times so when I finally get my Basecamp 20X I will know quite a bit. The one thing you didn’t show is the compartment under the roadside front cushion that houses the battery and the electronics. Other than that an excellent job!
Glad it was helpful! Next time.
I love the Basecamp!
(Admiring the bod on Botticelli, too)
Thank you for checking in.
I'll be seeing you near the end of 2021 when my Tesla Cybertruck is delivered. What a combo!! Can't wait! (fingers crossed). I'm up I-95 about 400 miles north of you guys.
Oh wow awesome. You may want to get your Airstream order in soon, we are ordering for October now.
Great walk through! Thank you Colonial Airstream!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Can you add an awning?
Yes, its available aftermarket through parts.
This is really nice ... comfortable layout ..lots if storage ...
..thank you Patrick
You are very welcome
One thing that they need to change in the design. It just makes sense to me that allow your gray water tank to flush through the black water tank that saves water. Just makes sense to me. That way you’re not using fresh water necessarily in the beginning at least as your rent your black water tank the gray water tank and help get the heavy duty stuff out first. I know that was an attractive conversation sorry folks.
This would only work with shower grey water. The toothpaste, spit and food debris that drains down sinks would clog the valves in toilets.
Great overview, Patrick! Does AS offer a teak mat for the bath? Thank you.
I believe one will be available soon.
Great trailer. Great review as always. Dislikes: No opening front window. Bathroom has a window but doesn’t open.
Thanks for the feedback.
Well done Patrick, thank you. Could you be more specific as to why you recommend a “charge lead” from the 7 pin? Is there a charge benefit for the trailer batts? Be it any configuration of agm, lith, solar? Thx
Don, it is always recommended to have a vehicles 7-way also charge the trailers batteries unless you are using Lithium Iron LifeP03 Batteries and it is below freezing.
@@colonialairstream I see Battleborn now has a heated battery option that could be envisioned somewhat acting like heating pads that work automatically. One important point is that without that solution the older versions will have the BMS disconnect automatically at a safe temperature so that there will be no damage to the batteries from the charge line of the tow vehicle. That being said, I need to study how that safety function would affect the emergency breakaway function. With the internal battery heating pads it should be no issue to that breakaway function, however time will tell what I may be overlooking. An unrelated question I have is what is the amperage rating of the 12-volt power point above the 12-volt charging center? Intended for charging devices typically, I am wondering if it will support a 65-watt USB-C 12-volt charger for Chromebooks, etc. Any external monitor could easily be powered by a 150-watt inverter hard-wired into the 12-volt power center, my RV trips generally involve some type of connectivity to support office functions back home while on the road. Another question, I don't see a access box for roof 4G antenna amplifier solutions, there is probably a way to do it that will be told about on the forums later. -Dave
Even if i don't have any intentions on buying one, i still enjoy looking at Patrick's Package. lol. Oh My!!!
Thank you for check this out. The X package is definitely worth it.
@@colonialairstream lol ,
Hey don’t you do videos on van life ? Because you look 👀 very familiar but anyway love the walk through awesome 👏
I do!
It was touched on briefly in the comments, but why no TV/entertainment center and speakers included? I know I know, IF YOU WANT THEM.
It is not a want or must have for the buyer segment Airstream is targeting for this product.
Wow! Not trying to be a smart ass, but Airstream customers don’t listen to music or watch videos? Really? You guys should know I guess.
I wonder about the pop out windows, so few open in this model. What about during a rain will water drip in more than the horizontal opening windows? Great demonstration!!!
Thank you very much. They are functional in light rain.
An awesome and thorough presentation. About the only thing I was left curious about, was hooking up the Outdoor Airstream Grill...I have a Camp Chef Outdoor Oven I'd like to connect (Maybe I missed it). 😊
Glad it was helpful! For a camp chef grill, that works on high pressure LP, you can hook it directly to one of the LP tanks.
Nice TT! Great and thorough review Patrick as always.
Thanks again!
Always great reviews from this guy. And bonus points for having voice like Ray Romano.
Thanks for checking in Mark.
i have seen a version with the kitchen at the front. Is that an option or a different version?
That is the 16' model.
Any chance you could make a 20' basecamp x with the same floor pattern as the 16'? I'd like to have the 20' with the kitchen at the front. More spacious than spread around. Maybe that could be an option?
Currently that is not an option, but I am sure Airstream will have new floor plans in the future model year.
@@colonialairstream Bring that up to the boss at the next meeting. I needeth! I guess I could buy a 20x & remodel it but I'd prefer not to have to. Ha..
Patrick is always the best presenter 👍. I have one recommendation, provide links to people actually using these campers 😎🤘.
Thanks for that!
Love the floor plan and flexibility. It sounds so echo-y with the bare metal walls and ceiling. Does that moderate when loaded with gear?
Thanks for checking in. The echo reduces when loaded with gear.
Multiple dealers I’ve spoken to have said this is indeed a Fourseason trailer because the underbelly is sealed and heated as well as tank heaters.
Interesting they would tell you that.
@@colonialairstream what is the difference between a 4 season and this one in your opinion? What components are needed?
I would love this camper
Me too Jim.
Beautiful. But, i just have to say something that could change, why dont use a telescopic system for the tables? In this case, you wouldn’t need to change the tubes for the bed.
The telescopic table legs would be in the way if you wanted to load cargo into the back which most customers do.
Colonial Airstream cooool. Thank you so much. 😃😃😃😃
Does the camp pressurized water input have the pressure regulator built in like other Airstreams?
yes.
I have a couple questions.
Can you upgrade to a 13,500 BTU air conditioner?
How many solar panels can you place up top?
Yes can do the AC upgrade aftermarket if you feel necessary. There is room for two more 90W panels.
Wow i never knew about airstream. One in my future for sure! Love them.
You should!
can you upgrade the propane tanks to 2 30 lb. also can you charge the batts. with a generator ?
Yes but they will not fit properly in the cover. Yes, all RV.s batteries can be charged with a generator.
Great video. Which model has a bigger and more importantly taller wet bath. Basecamp 20X or Caravel 16RB?
The Basecamp 20
Looking good... both Patrick and the trailer!
Thank you.
Hey Patrick, hello from Canada, always appreciate your videos and this walkthru is no Exception.....
Glad you like them!
Patrick looking good my man . I love that base amp
Thank you very much.
Is it possible to install a hitch on the back to tow a 16ft. fishing boat and trailer?
That would be extremely dangerous and not recommended.
i am guessing there is no tv hook ups on the basecamp models?
Correct
josh myers You could always do it after market but my favorite thing about the Basecamp is it has everything I need but nothing I don’t. If I’m camping the last thing I want is a tv, just my opinion. The Nest is similar size...you could check it out. I love the ruggedness of the Basecamp myself. I’m very happy with mine 😎
I liked it since I first laid eyes on it, with all the windows and all but, the cushions to sleep on look really thin. I feel like it would be the same as sleeping on a mat in a tent and that's the main reason why I want to upgrade to an RV. And to throw anything on top just to make it comfortable would be an option but for the price I would rather get something else with a comfortable bed. I still plan to get an Airstream thou, I've watched all your videos, big fan!! Thanks
Thanks for sharing!
the only thing I don't like is that the large windows don't open.
The front curved windows do not open on any Airstream model.
@@colonialairstream thanks for the reply I was unaware of that. still a bummer but wow what a great trailer.
I’m completely new to RV and campers my fiancé and I want one and we really like this one but I’m curious when out camping and there’s no plug in are you able to use the refrigerator, Furnace or air conditioner, what about a hot shower sorry if I sound dumb but how’s it all work
Andrew, I explain the workings of the Airstreams in the walk through tour videos, I have many others besides this one. The Air Conditioning and microwave would need AC shore power to run. I hope my videos are helpful.
Great video, Do the cushions have zippers to remove/replace the foam if needed?
Yes they do
Good demo thanks
You bet
Simply put... MAGICAL!
Awesome trailer
Awesome dude - nice work
Thanks a ton!
Is it just me or is Patrick’s accent part time in This video? 😂
Part time?
What does “ By no means is this considered a four seasons trailer...” mean? Is it for warm weather only?
Drain the water when you get temperatures day and night below freezing.
Patrick you are good at this ! Question for you. Can you add a tv on the interior ?
Thank you. Yes, our service department will be able to assist you after the sale with the install.
On really hot summer days do those keep cool and retain cool air from the AC???
Our customers repost back with positive reviews on hot days.
what size in watts gen. would you suggest to run the basecamp , incl. the a/c?
I would suggest 2400 or more.
Thanks Patrick. Great job.
Glad you enjoyed it
🚶♂️It's Patrick 😃
Hello
@@colonialairstream 👋🏼😊
What is thr material trim on all the windows? Black painted plastic?
The front solar stone guards are acrylic.
That’s way more roomy than it appears to be inside. The engineering is well done 👍🏿
Thank you.
Colonial Airstream
I gotta find a way to afford one in the next few years.
Excellent walkthrough! so thorough!
Glad it was helpful!
That is a seriously small wet bath! I thought the one in my Casita was tight but it is huge compared to this one. Isn't this supposed to be a larger trailer than the Basecamp 16? They should have kept the original kitchen setup in the front and made the rear area larger. Two seating areas seem redundant to me, especially when the one in front makes you face away from those big windows when you are seated there. Not a very good use of space and very little storage increase. Dropped the ball kids. SMH. Not on my shopping list.
Richard, I would suggest visiting and looking through a Basecamp. I have been in both productions and the Basecamps wet bath is larger than the Casita.
His van is pretty epic also.
Thank you very much Zach.
NO solar power? Come on, Airstream, this customer NEEDS solar.
I am not sure where you missed me mention this has 180W of solar on the roof.
@@colonialairstream Ah, excellent! Well, I obviously MISSED it when/where you said it. I am relieved Airstream didn't miss it.
Off grid power generation solutions?
good video. my only concern is the 540 lbs tongue weight? planning to tow with a 2021 subaru ascent limited ,.,.i think ir can do 500 tongue weight and tow 5000 lbs..maybe travel with one 20 lb propane full then add propane to the other close to campsite
The Subaru is quite limited with tongue weight. You may have to remove one tank to tow is under weight.
@@colonialairstream thanks
Master bed, rear pillows in middle with the large bed surfaces on sides.
Thanks for checking in.
