- 2021 Thor Axis 24.1
Hey everyone welcome back to another video. Today I am super excited were taking a look at the worlds smallest class A gas motorhome. This is the 2021 Thor Axis 24.1 it is the same at the 2021 Thor Vegas 24.1 they are callest sister products. The reason why this is the smallest Class A is because normally Class A motorhomes are built on a f53 chassis.. Where this is made on the same chassis as they make class C motorhomes on E350 Chassis. Which is how they make this motorhome so small. So its a cross over motorhome. its a class A built like a class C.

I've never driven an RV, but I think I would be comfy learning to drive this size as an option to a camper van. Love the size of the bathroom and the driver visibility is awesome. Can't wait to become a newbie RV owner!
Recently bought a 2016 Thor Vegas 24.1 and absolutely love it. So easy to drive. I can park just about anywhere. The shower is not that big of an issue. Just keep the curtain inside the shower and no leaks. You really can’t take long showers anyway , so not a big deal. Perfect for my sister and fur babies. I’m heading out in a couple weeks for a three month trip. 👍🏻❤️
Are you still happy with it after your journey? Any issues? What kind of mileage?
@@DonnaCrow-HealingSchool Very happy. I wish I were a bit more handy because things do go wrong. I’ve had a couple of issues with the door, including the lock, the toilet lever (just getting a new toilet now), a few other things. But nothing too expensive so far. However, I can’t seem to find any other model that meets my needs as well as this one and from what I’ve seen in RV forums, they all have some issues. I haven’t paid a lot of attention to mileage but supposedly about 10 mpg.
@@JodysJourney 10 mpg fully loaded? Keep tabs on it and update us. Thanks
I agree completely on the controls. Just give us the buttons! We have enough technology and it isn't necessary. I love the twin beds!
I am so sorry I missed it, oh well yes I am wrong, thank you for correcting me.
This guy has got to be one of the best salesman around. While I'm not a camping kinda guy I just love watching this guy do his thing. Cracks me up and if I ever decided to buy a RV I'd go with this guy. 😅
I love the twin bed's in the back... as a single person I can share with my granddaughter easily! it needs a counter extension near the sink,
I love the twin beds too, as a single one with a daughter. it is great. Nobody climbing over the other person, or crawling down to get off the bed to use the restroom. I wish we could see more RV's with the twin bed option.
I think the counter extension is missing, someone from the factory missed it.
I almost bought a used one like this. Was just a little to scary for my first RV. Loved the twin beds. Felt too low to the ground for me AND I hate there is only one door.
I believe that they did have a counter extention on previous years. (It also used to have an exterior tv)
I also thought that an extension for the kitchen counter was in order
yeah Thor...finally tankless instant hot water...my pet peeve!!!
i love it!!!
I love the big pass-thru storage with three access points so you don’t have to pull half your stuff out to get at something that’s in the middle.
In our opinion, this is the best small floorplan for a couple! Our RV is a 2012 diesel Sprinter version of this but the Mercedes-Benz is not as reliable as the Ford and WAYYYY expensive. What makes the Thor floorplan so great is that those are 38" wide twin beds! That's actually a big deal (no pun intended) because most if not all rear twin beds are 33" or less which are hard to sleep on. BTW Andrea, the King Bed assembled is 84"x75"! Having said that, the 2021 version of the 24.1 has been cheapened. Gone is the outside TV of years before. It appears from the sound of the toilet that it is plastic when it used to be porcelain. The cabinetry used to be curved radius. Probably the best year was 2019 when there was a induction cooktop and a one-burner propane cooktop. The TPO roof is not our favorite either as opposed to fiberglass. Most importantly though, the 24.1's are an extreme bargain! The closest RV made to these specifications today is the B+ Leisure Travel Wonder RTB at around $135K! That's probably around $50K more expensive than Matt's best price! We are not Thor fans, but we do love the 24.1. We had the choice to buy one or our present RV and we blew it. If we had a do-over, we would grab the 24.1.
I love the layout, one of the best I seen yet for a couple or single person.
I love the storage in the back! By far my favorite feature..
LIKES:
1. TWIN BEDS ... hallelujah!!!
2. Outside Storage
3. Interior Colors
4. Sofa / Table
DISLIKES:
1. Bathroom (maybe it should be a wet bathroom, then there would be much more room for showering. Also cabinetry could be outside the wet bathroom area ... just my opinion 🤷)
2. Limited Kitchen Countertop Space
3. Control Pad!!!
I was going to type exact same likes and dislikes and didn’t wanna look like I was copying you LOL
Something outside storage gives you that most people don’t think about, it’s for the older traveler that has a tagalong with a mobility scooter. Virtually no motorhomes have storage for a motorized scooter anywhere with them. Somebody should also get the idea of putting in an outlet back there to charge the batteries of a scooter in the back garage
@@triodekt66 EXACTLY!!! 😁
Matt... the best RV salesman in the world!
I only have one like. This RV is very compact and has everything that's needed (no frills). Perfect for a couple.
I’ve always loved Thor’s storage and cabinets. Thank you for the video.
This is nice wow I like this one. The perfect survival RV. Thank you guys
Andrea’s smile when she is surprised by the co-captains pull out desk is always awesome.
She's great and so is her smile. :)
This interior looks extremely cozy. Especially bedroom area with twin beds. 😍
Poor Matt was melting. Love the overall RV. Agree with the shower, I would put magnets on the bottom of the curtain and shower itself, and that controller sucks.
3 Likes:
1: Versatile bedroom area
2: Spacious cockpit and power bunk
3: Nice decor and cabinetry design
3 Dislikes:
1: Lower-end kitchen appliances and fixtures
2: Terrible shower
3: Wheels look too small
I was thinking the same thing about the wheels
Love the size of the motor home and everything about it. Do not like the dang shower curtain and yes Matt, just give me the button without having to memorize the computer. Love you guys.
This one has risen to the top of my list.
I love the Solar Panel, I love the bed over driving area and the kitchen.
I have always been intrigued by this exterior design. The inside is attractively unique as well. Great for two couples.
Matt: Your enthusiasm is infectious. Thanks for sharing. As for THOR:Stop putting 73” beds in motor homes. 80” should be the standard. On this model, the front TV should be on the wall, rear of the sofa. Toilets MUST have sprayers. Let’s stop putting LP stoves in motorhomes now that convection is here. These guys are tripping over dollars trying to save pennies. A little more attention to details would sell lots more boxes. Love your videos.
This is my all time favorite for my needs. Great vid. Thanks!!!
Very cool just perfect! Love it.
Love this! Esp the couch directly across from TV.
Great job from the glistening duo! This motor home is a winner. Small but packed with features. Both likes and dislikes nailed it.
Love this RV! Thanks for doing the 2021 review!
OMGosh! I saw one of these today and I think I’m in love. 😍
I love the size, I´m a solo traveler, I know I´d be very comfortable. The interior is very impressive, I agree with the opinion of the shower area, and the awning panel, so not friendly. Pretty decent counter space for food preparation. Everything else is pretty cool
Amazing RV. Cab, Bedroom, Finishes, Size GREAT- A perfect compromise for the person wanting a smaller, footprint! I do agree on the recliners!!
I absolutely love this class A. We will be giving a call in near future. Love what you guys are doing. Me and my fiancee watch you guys almost everyday to get educated about motorhomes.Great job you guys!
Such a cool motorhome for being so small.. good looking interior, and at the size and weight, that large gas motor will have zero problems going where you want..
I love the two-tone interior -love the two-tone cabinets ,LED lighting ,love the big windshield .... love the twin beds if needed .i agree .. needs nautilus door
Edit: needs flip up counter extension. needs travel tray on rear bumper
I need this in my life
Just met them today. Very friendly and helpful. Thanks and appreciate your video reviews. We find them helpful, insightful and definitely influencing our RV decision. Thanks again
I totally 💯 love this.
I'm SUPER EXCITED because YOU...are SUPER EXCITED! Love the jump! Liked and Subscribed. 👍‼👌‼
I like the honest review!
❤ Love everything!!
I love the floor plan. You don't see twin bed setups like you did in the 70's and 80's.
I always love when you get to the back of the motor home. Between the commentary on the the “stinky slinky” and coming down off the ladder, I’m dying 🤣
I love the bed in the back with all the windows!
You are a hoot!! Crack me up. Love the review!! I like this very much.
Love this RV! Glad to see the twin beds! Love the sofa, cockpit area! Just about hit all the buttons....except if course the awning control!
I test drove one last year and really liked it. My wife would even walk through it once she saw the lack of counter space. Great review! Thanks
thanks for the great review, you are fun to watch. I have the 2017 Vegas 24.1 and love it lots. I am happy to see the 1) propane connection on the right side; 2) the access storage door on the rear; 3) you finally acknowledging it as a Class A! 4) solar connection, yippie! 1) I agree with you on the digital control, ugh!; 2) a v8 instead of the v10! why??? 3) the kitchen configuration was better in previous years.
thanks again for your wonderful reviews and happy personality.
↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ Another flawless dismount from the ladder.
This is a great motorhome. We had a 2016 and loved it. It’s only gotten better. I love the bedroom layout, also love the magnetic bathroom doors that create a larger bathroom when you need it. Has great storage for the size of the motorhome. The shower is small, but you can make it work. The convection/microwave looked pretty small.
Love the tri-access rear passthrough store!!! Pre installed solar panel is nice and the price at around 90k is awesome for a 2021 model.👏
Loves: the twin beds; for a small Class A this is a great motor home, the cab area has a pedestal option Disloves: shower curtain, no oven for full time RVing, that's it
I love the layout of this motor home very much with one exception... There was no art Deco!
We have a 2019 Vegas and we love it. It's easy to drive, tows our Ford Fiesta effortlessly, and has enough storage for us to stay on the road as long as we want to. Ours is on the E450 chassis and has about twice the CCC. We though the shower was too small initially but we have adapted to it. There's nothing we would sacrifice to get a bigger shower. I work in this with a desktop system, with dual 26" monitors on the dash. Oh, also there's more storage under the drivers side bed. Dislikes in the unit you featured include the gas cooktop, the control panel nonsense, and lack of day shades. Ours has the Lippert One Control system an it's been flawless.
We have the 2018 Axis and we’re very happy with it. I upgraded the radio to the same unit shown in the 2021 and I added Sumo Springs and a Sate-T-Plus Steering Stabilizer, but otherwise it’s great. We love the way the bathroom expands with the doors open, and the small shower isn’t that much of a nuisance. I’m surprised nobody has mentioned the great panoramic view out the one-piece windshield. I had clear ceramic tint applied and it cut the heat from the sun way down. Stay safe!
I have a 2016 axis I bought new March of 2016 after i got in the initial bugs worked out of it we love ours too. I haven't met anyone who's had one that doesn't love it . Mine is 25.2 with the rear slide you can go to a football game the absolute perfect Tailgater. you can go anywhere you want if a UPS truck and get there I can.
Love this one
Love the size, style and seats
I love the back "bedroom" area because it can also be used as a lounge type space where you can hang out etc with several people if you wanted and treat it like a large sectional type thing. It reminds me of the class C leisure vans but it's larger.
I love this small motorhome. It’s cute. Didn’t like the shower curtain and the control that Matt talked about. Love the twin beds. A lot sleeping space for a small motor home. Thank you Matt and Andrea.
This is the second video I have seen with you!! The first one was with you behind the camera instead in front!! DUDE YOU ARE SO MUCH FUN !!!!
Good Information, Thanks
😂Your humor and honesty have won me over! (Plus I love Rvs!) I’m now a subscriber.😊
3 things I like- the size of the chassis, the amount of sleeping options and the solar. 3 things I don’t-🤔 the stupid shower, the round sink and the wanna be apple awning. Thank you and your wife for these types of videos. They are brilliant in helping one to decipher the individual must haves and must have nots when deciding on an RV. And all in the comfort of our own homes! Way to go y’all!! Keep up the great work.😊👍
I like everything about this motor home. Even the bathroom is ok with me, I wound make it work. Love the open cockpit, love the kitchen/living space and the sofa/loveseat that makes into a bed. I love, love, love the bedroom space. If I was going to buy a motor home I would look at this one. Thank you for the review...
❤️ Matt an Andrea
👍 Like whole M.H.
Love the adjustable bed
I agree with Matt and Andrea. I like this motor home. 👍👍👍👍👍
The bed issuse other think is perfect great job
I like the cockpit, Ford, and that back bedroom. :-)
Loved the video
NEVER! I hate that bathroom. The toilet test looked uncomfortable.
But I LOVE THAT BED!
There's nothing not to like about this motorhome. I absolutely love it.
"Prime pooping position"..😆
Informative, and funny. Great combo.
Thanks for this review! I've seen these parked at my local dealer. I REALLY like this!!!
Likes: light colors and modern cabinets, split beds (perfect for me and my daughter), all that exterior storage.
Dislikes: not much interior storage, tiny shower, not much counterspace.
I love it, on my wish list.
This is the RV for me love it!
LOVE this one!!! The twin beds are everything!!!! I can even deal with the shower. 😁
I actually love this motor home! I love the round sink a lot. But I can't help but think a larger square or rectangle one with a piece that covers only half of it would be better. That way you can have access to part of the sink while having more countertop space. Awesome bedroom and outdoor storage
My wife and I are looking to get into an RV and this may be the answer to what we’re looking for. We love the rear twin beds and I love the panoramic view from the driver’s seat. Thanks for your insights on the rig.
Good choice!
New subscriber. Really appreciate and enjoy your videos.
I have a 2017 Vegas and love it!
Good to hear! Thanks for sharing that.
This is the perfect couple’s rv. I love that there is not a dinette AND a sofa. Most RVs will have a dinette instead of the sofa in a small length rv. If they made this 2’ longer they could make the bathroom bigger and the kitchen longer and it would be PERFECT!!!!
LOVE THIS GUY
Love it
I love this one!!
Love the king bed....dinky little cabinets...love the all around windows
Matt and Andrea, you two always give down to earth, lively demos!
Likes: 1. How the two single beds can be made into a king size.
2. Open both doors to the bathroom, and you go from a regular sized bathroom to giant sized...and can grab a beer, too.
3. The front cab with swivel seats and laptop table. It's so open, up there, it's almost a room in itself.
Dislikes: 1. When the slide is in, you can't set up the dining table.
2. Shower is small but, personally I can deal with it, and it's better than not having a shower. I think the real issue is the shower curtain. Maybe Thor can make the curtain rod extend out, wa-ay wider than the shower pan circumference. That keeps the curtain off you. Supply a slightly longer curtain with magnets in the bottom, that line up with magnets on the inside base of the shower pan...just puttin it out there.
3. The swirls on the exterior. Bring the RUV appearance into the 21st century. How, you say?
Solid color paint, with black gloss paint from the front window to the rear window. Using the front side window for the height of the paint, carried to the rear window.
It gives the appearance of one window, and matches the tinted windows. A clean automotive look and no swirls.
See there, a nice contemporary looking RUV, to match the cleaner, updated interior, of the 24.1. If you've seen the 2014 to 2017 interiors of these models, with the yucky 1980s decor, you know what I mean.
Anyway, I'm sold on this model, and my girl is in lockstep, with me, and ready to take the plunge.
Thank you, Andrea re: curtains and motorized shade... and YES. many of us want to know & this is GREAT!!!!!!!! Matt, think you need a check up.
Matt, love this small coach, would be a great choice BUT, BUT, BUT there is a HUGE DESIGN FAIL which would be all three of my dislikes rolled into one: Google how you service or change the chassis battery. You literally have to take part of the dash apart, cut a hole in the dash plywood to remove or service it. The other method is to take the front right wheel off, remove the inner fender. One guy underneath to lift the battery and another to guide it out. Thor needs to simply put a access door on the exterior to make life better. Other than that issue I love this coach! Oh, in full agreement the shower sucks!!! Good vid again Matt and Andrea....thank you
❤ Thanks Matt!!
Hello, I love the twin beds, colors, cabinets. Don't like the shower, round sink, control panel is confusing, agree with regular buttons. Great review Matt and Andrea! 👍👍❤❤
Love "almost" everything about this unit. Twins, roomy feel/interior look, Ford V8....but that shower, I'm just not sure, BUT the pluses might outweigh the minuses. My minuses are the same as Matt's.
Love the bedroom area and able to tow the boat!
OMG, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE CONTROLS. However, I LOVE everything else and my husband and I are looking into getting one
Love this !! I’m getting one!!
Very nice small motorhome
We love this RV
This is the first time I have watched one of your reviews. I love your exuberance! It was very entertaining. As for the camper- the size is perfect for what we are looking for. I also like the front cab area with the modern dash and pull out passenger desk. I also like the overall layout with the pull out couch and the overhead bunk. Thor- put a diesel in it and improve the bathroom, then I would buy it.
Love the bedroom!
I like the length of the unit. The rear pass through is great (3) doors. Perfect for inner city travel.
I love this motor home. I’ve been looking for something like this for a few years. I just want something small for my wife. She’s a front line health care worker and a fairly new driver. It would be great to have something like this for her so when the weather gets extreme as it often does here in Oklahoma, she wouldn’t need to risk driving home after work. Unfortunately we can’t afford it yet but I will keep saving for her safety.👍
Such a compassionate, loving thought.
You are a wonderful husband! I’m a nurse and giving her a place to stay safe when she’s so tired is true love!
💕💕💕💕Love this💕💕💕
I like more than 3: Tankless hot water heater, solar panel, pass-through storage, Apple car play, passenger work station, retractable upper bunk, nice sized deep sink, large fridge.
This is nice!
