Alliance is an RV company that has come in to really EARN a strong following from their dedicated customer-driven designs and support structure. So I wanted to see and learn more about what makes Alliance RVs a little different. Their team welcomed me down to their factory facilities and I quickly discovered they are offering more than just "lip service" when it comes to the committment they make to their customer AND their factory team!

Thanks for the tour, Josh! It was great having you out! We will make sure to find that jerk who chased you out of your new office 😂
😂
Alliance,
Well done! I am so impressed. You get it! Quality and Customer Service is key.
Hope the RV dealerships rise to your level of service. Choose them carefully. They will be your weakest link. Keep up the great work!
@alliancerv
@JoshtheRVNerd
I did finally get the 385fl and 1 of the main reasons I got it was because of the composite floors. I had to make a few minor repairs after first trip. Minor stuff. But I have to say how MASSIVELY DISAPPOINTED I was to find out my floors are OSB PLYWOOD and my unit was made 3/2023. When I loaded the rear slid tray all of the way to small screws popped out flipping the tray up. (And by no means was it anywhere near being overloaded) overall I like the 385fl but I'm very disappointed in it also
@alliancerv are the frame qualities Josh showed present in the ‘22 Avenue?
These factory tours are so valuable to the RV community. It's nice to see makers actually practicing quality control in their product. Good show.
Our pleasure!
I have seen a tour of Alliance before, but you, sir, put such a personal touch on this manufacturer that this may be our go to brand when I/we retire. Thank you so much Josh and all the folks at Alliance.
Wow ty Bryan! Just trying to do my nerdy thing!
Josh, I really appreciate your un-biased, non-marketing, NO FAN BOY videos by providing facts. And by doing that, you are doing a better job of promoting the RV industry.
Have to say, after watching this presentation, Alliance may just be the RV we end up with. Really appreciate what they are doing and how they are doing it. As a crafts person, I appreciate someone going the extra mile. Thanks, Josh and thank you Alliance for sharing your viewpoint.
Ty Sandra for watching and sharing some kind words
Yeah when there's people getting tours and watching them.
Go see the Brinkley tour, they PDI at every station and even test for leaks. They also shake test the entire rig to ensure nothing is coming loose. You'll notice no trim on the ceiling because of how tight the rig is built. I do like Alliance though, better than most of the other top brands.
Did you end up buying one? Every Alliance RV we have seen on a dealer lot was the biggest pile of crap. I've neve seen a brand so poorly built. They can't even drag them from the factory to the dealer lots without everything falling apart.
Great tour, Josh! Making their RVs so accessible to the customer (roof repair, furnace access) really shows Alliance's character!
Agree completely
Best factory tour I have ever seen. Finally someone really showed the frame and how it’s made better than other frames. Especially nowadays with all of the frame flex that has been going on with Grand Design. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Glad you liked it!
It says a lot about a company that gives you that type of access to their production line. I wish them great success. I really appreciate the work that you do. You are a huge asset to Bish's RV!
Should be the mission statement for all manufacturing facilities. Would love to see the Grand Design factory tour. Thanks for taking us through the factory Josh.
Great suggestion!
Josh, I'd like to add my input to the customer experience and service side of Alliance RV. I think I wrote last year in a comment that a friend of ours has an Alliance toy hauler and had exactly the same story about the high quality of after sales. It wasn't anything outrageous but there were TWO people from Alliance (one a tech and one from the Customer Service side) who spent as much time at the campground with them to resolve the issues. Outstanding job from them.
No more tours needed. That's all we needed. They have got to be the best 😅👍👌
lol wow! Glad folks have enjoyed this one so much!
Someday maybe you can tour the ATC factory. It would be nice to see a tour of a life long RV with your attention to detail.
Could be cool! It's a brand I'd like to learn more about certainly. They remind me more of the living quarter horse trailers we used to carry here years past than traditional RVs
I love a company that listens to customers concerns! 48:59
It really shows!
Great job, Josh. Makes me even more happy we purchased our Avenue!!
Great to hear!
Never looked at an Alliance. They are now number 1 on my list. Nice to see an RV company actually take pride in their work and their product.
Wow! Ty!!
Man, this factory tour was legit. Thanks Alliance and Thanks Nerd!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Not the first video of an Alliance factory tour, but very detailed in this one and makes me even more confident as to why we liked the Alliance out of all the brands we've seen for our future RV.
Ty Martin! Glad I was able to offer something new to learn
Rock on. It looks like this facility was built a year ago. Very clean.
Josh I have to say I’ve seen a few factory but hands down your has to be the best most in-depth tour I have ever seen . Thanks for doing the work and I thoroughly enjoy your videos. 👍🏻
Would love to see how the new Brinkley's are built.
They’re currently in a temporary rented facility while their full facility is being built
As soon as they’re new facilities done, I’ll be down there for sure
Yes,
They are scheduled to begin production in their new plant on March 15.
Awesome video and shows some great things Alliance is doing compared to some of the competitors but I did notice a few things:
- The welding around the middle leaf spring hanger looked a little rough
- Noticed some trash thrown in the underbelly
- The bushings in the springs of the pre-built axles appear to be plastic instead of brass
- Some of the openings in the I-beans for the wires didn't appear to be rolled
- It would be nice if there were supports going front to back to support the floor between the side to side supports, it's always been a weak spot for laminated floors and causes a ton of flex after a couple of years.
I'm waiting for a Brinkley plant tour
They’re in a temporary facility now. As soon as their real plant is done I will be there
We own an Avenue 32RLS and we love it. We are huge Alliance fans. Thanks so much for the terrific review. I appreciate the time and honesty.
Thanks Alliance for being #1
Great to hear!
I appreciate the detailed factory tour. We just moved from a 2021 Paradigm 372RK to a 2023 Paradigm 382RK. We were very happy with the 2021, but the new one is even better! They started with a great product and have continued to make it better. Customer support direct from the manufacturer has been exceptionally good as well, which seems rare in the industry.
Ty so much for sharing this!!
holy COW, let me get my popcorn, Tour behind the scenes again, YES!!!!!!
Yeah, she’s a long one. Enjoy.
That was the best behind the scenes tour I’ve seen yet! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this in-depth video! We are very interested in the 37 MBR. If you get a chance, please do a video on this model! Thanks again for your hard work.
I really want to see that one!
Please let me know I'll be Hopeful One of the FIRST TO WATCH THIS
GREAT JOB AS ALWAYS
We’ve seen alot of Alliance tours but man Uncle Josh that was fantastic! We absolutely love the attention to detail that Alliance does, and the way you point them out. Great video!
Another great tour video of a great company! Thanks Josh!
Our pleasure!
Bill and the whole team at Alliance are fantastic. Owners since March ‘21. And yes, I got that Gung Ho reference. -Grant
Congratulations! They were a brand I knew nothing about. When they came into the marketplace I was still working for my family's independent store.
We didn't carry them and from a distance they just kinda looked like everything else. I hear weird stuff like "non-ducted A/C units" and my "what the what?!" alarms went off
But as a practice I try not to judge things until I'm better educated on them. They were kind enough to allow me into their facebook group. I simply wanted to observe what REAL owners thought about them.
I noticed a trend.. an owner might report a problem on their RV. But like clockwork 24-48hrs later I saw them posting how happy they were about how Alliance stepped up to take care of them. And I saw positive endings like that time after time again. I saw how people were so proud of their Alliance RV & the community they shared.
I knew then there had to be SOMETHING special going on here.
But weirdly despite my time in this business I had never had a chance to really meet anyone from Alliance. I knew a couple guys there, but never really got to meet Alliance "up close" until I did this factory tour.
What I saw really elevated them HIGHLY in my eyes. I was already liking what I saw from their products. But the care and concern they had for PEOPLE -- _anybody_ really whether it was owners or workers -- really impressed me.
The hubby and I are going to be living in a 5th wheel full time as traveling contractors, and this video was so valuable to see the entire process from start to finish and see all the extra care, pride, testing and attention to detail Alliance puts into their product. We've been struggling to decide which manufacturer we could trust to purchase from since this will likely be our home on wheels for many years to come, and after seeing this I think Alliance will be our go to! Thank you Josh for always puting unbiased information out there for the RV community, we love watching your videos and thank you Alliance for changing the RV industry and hearing our feedback!
I have several other factory tours on file you may enjoy!
They need to add the "residential" ovens back into the Valors. If they would do that, I would definatly get one.
Ty for the input
Alliance has been on the top of my list for RV from all the research I have done.
Would love to see how brinkley compares with a factory tour, and what there customer service looks like.
He posted a Brinkley tour. It's a tossup to me but I think these two brands are the way to go. Love to hear what pro's say.
We own a 2021 Alliance Paradigm 310RL and can’t say enough good about Alliance quality and their customer service. Great video.
Love this!!
Either that factory has been staged, or it is legitimately the cleanest RV assembly line I have ever seen. I’m going to hope that it’s the latter. If so, they really do take pride like you said.
I hear you on the wire slack. I’ve had to replace a few things already on my 2021 camper of a different brand. One of the outlets I replaced didn’t have an inch of spare wiring. I had to WORK just to get the old outlet out. So kudos to them on spending an extra $5 on wiring to make sure there is relief.
It is legitimately the cleanest you’ve seen
Josh, This was awesome. thank you. Would really like to see a modern day factory detail walk through of AirStream.
Thanks for the idea!
Alliance is an awesome manufacturer that uses so many quality materials such as the PVC roof membrane👍I just wish that they used plywood instead of OSB below it😕
Thanks Josh!
I'll be buying one, pride of work is extremely important.
Thanks Josh -- a 5th wheel is a bit big for me but I'll keep my eyes out for the trailer review. Alliance looks like it has a great factory and fantastic workers.
Ty Delvie
THAT was one of THE best factory tour videos I have ever watched and I've watched dozens of them. In depth explanations with full understanding of the product and its manufacturing process. Bravo Josh!
As to Alliance RV, I'm sold! The attention to detail and quality control at every stage of the manufacturing process and the quality of materials used; couple that with the thoughtfulness and intelligence evidenced in every step of the RV's development--well Alliance reigns supreme and sets the bar VERY HIGH for every other RV manufacturer out there. Right now, I see no competition. Alliance is in a league of its own.
I am chomping at the bit waiting to see Alliance's newest line, the travel trailer. Decision is made. I'm buying.
I actually already have full footage of it, but they’ve asked me to hold off until their official Premier and debut on Tuesday
@@JoshtheRVNerd I'm SO psyched! Thank you Josh!
Excellent tour, just the right level of detail!
Thank you very much!
Wow !!
Doing it right.
Think this really helped in making our decision.
Thank you and the Aliance team.
TY for watching!
Wow Josh an amazing tour of the Alliance factory and a great well done job presenting how these RVs are built..Very impressed..kudos to you and to everyone on the Alliance team.
FANTASTIC!!! By far, your BEST factory tour!!! THANKS THANKS THANKS!!!!!
Wow, thanks!
OMG Uncle Josh Thank you for the factory tour I have watched many other alliance tours and you just blew them out of the water thank you from a long time RV nerd heard member
Wow TY Matt :)
Great tour as usual Josh. I really appreciate all the work that goes into these tours.
My pleasure!
Thanks for this factory tour, Josh. It's always interesting (or sometimes frightening) to see what goes on at the factory. I do like the Alliance brand. They seem to design their RV's to be used in a convenient and user-friendly way (like the furnace access). Oh, and thanks for not filming in the restroom! (TMI)
helo cindy
This one was truly my pleasure. I felt so good walking out of there. I was so glad just for my own purposes that I did this.
We have owned a Paradigm and now a Valor and we have been extremely pleased at their customer service, attention to detail and the fact that they answer the phone and call you back no matter what. We saw this when we owned our Tiffin Diesel pusher and did not expect that same type of customer care with Alliance.
Love this. Ty Barry
I have a Deposit down on the all-access Avenue RD26, super excited!
Good choice!
As an Alliance Valor 42v13 owner, I really appreciate the time you took to make such a great video. It really shows the level of commitment this leadership team has to “do better” in the RV industry. Makes me proud to be an Ally!
TY Sean! I actually thought this video was only going to be like 25 mins long. Didn't realize it was pushing an HOUR lol :)
This was just what I needed to see. Thanks Nerd.
Thanks Bill! Thankyou for allowing the build to be shared and Thanks again Josh for a great job!
Great video, I just went to a RVshow today and looked at this brand. Glad to see how it was made.
Very cool! What did you think when you saw the RV?
I like that you only spoke of this manufacturer and their product. Not bad mouthing others.
My only concern was to see trash dropped down in on the bubble board along the frame rails.
Ty Eric!
Great job on the tour and reporting Josh! This could not come at a more perfect time, as my wife and I are actively looking at the Paradigm 310RL for our next fifth wheel.
As engineers, we can appreciate all the improvements that Alliance has done that are "hidden" and not readily seen by the consumer. The structural upgrades, the design for reliability and even the thought behind the maintainability of the trailer is fantastic and displays great systems engineering practices! I had to do many of those modifications myself to our current fifth wheel.
It is unfortunate you do not have a location in the Northeast, as we would definitely buy from Bish's RV.
Love the quality and workmanship of this company! Customer service is top of my list so this company checks all my boxes!!
Great to hear!
I own an Alliance Avenue 32 RLS and its one of the best I have owned. I did have a few issues with the coach ,but Alliance has been great in resolving them. I did take the factory tour and met many of the workers on the line. Speaking with them one on one , they all stated they loved working for Alliance. They are the best in customer service and dedicated to their customers. The Alliance owners community is a tight knit bunch of great people always willing to help one another.
Thanks Alliance, allowing the tour. You are winning my vote for a future RV purchase. And thanks Josh, RV Nerd, all your videos are so informative.👍 (picture me with a selfie camera putting my thumbs up😉🤣)
Thx for watching, Mark :)
You are a serious nut your mind spins so fast you are definitely on top of your game 😂❤
I try!
Hi Josh, Thanks for a great job on this tour. I love seeing how things are built, and the clean, organized Alliance facility shows that they care about doing the right thing. Please thank Bill and the team for letting you produce this video. PS: The "buzz box" is a great idea!
Dude it was SO loud
What???? Can't hear you!
Great job as always. We really appreciate your efforts. In the cold or rain. Showing the slides open and closed. Describing the good and the bad. Thank you.
I am considering my first RV and this video convinced me to buy from this brand...i really want to a quality rv for my lifestyle because yes my husbands money is valuable to me !! 😉😉
Ty so much for watching
That’s a clean factory!
Really was!
Thank you for a great factory tour! As an engineer, I really appreciate how things are made.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thorough and great factory tour! Thanks alot for all the very useful info!
Glad you enjoyed it!
this tour is clutch, thank you for doing this! This changes my opinion about my purchase decisions
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the tour and the in depth information. We are considering purchasing an Alliance… you just validated that they do build a better RV !!
WOW!!! Even though they don’t have the ideal floor plan, the quality and attention to detail makes me choose that brand when I’m ready. Truly well done! Way to go Alliance!!!!
One of your best EVER videos!!! Thanks!!
Wow, thanks!
Awesome tour,much appreciated look from the factory dide!👍
Glad you enjoyed it
So glad and impressed to see a manufacturer that puts quality and PDI at the forefront of their product. Alliance is now my #1 RV choice when I go shopping next year!
The difference in what they're doing with their holding tanks was pretty awesome
@Josh the RV Nerd at Bish's RV
Holding tanks look great! Also Alliance making a commitment to customer service is so awesome as well. Makes you want to give a company a chance...
Beautiful and well presented as always Mr. Nerd!!!!!! Love it!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Josh, Thank you for these tours. My wife and I have been looking at fifth wheels for over a year, just when we think we know what we want, you post another awesome video which makes us take another look. No RV is going to be perfectly built, but Alliance ticks a lot of boxes on build quality.
Awesome video tour. Always like your true and honest opinion. I thought I had made my decisions on buying a keystone cougar. But now I have to consider this Alliance 5th wheel. I would like your opinion on which 5th wheel is a better choice ( Cougar or Alliance)?
Thank you JT very much
Brian, my suggestion would really need to be tailored to exactly what you’re seeking and I don’t know that I can do that without really have any opportunity to speak with you. An avenue and a cougar overlap pretty darn heavily so it’s really just a matter which specific little details speak to you a little more loudly.
@@brianc.jackson9965 After owning both I can tell you its not even close. Alliance Avenue over a Cougar ANY DAY. So many better features over the Cougar. PVC roof, Flush floor slides, flush upper deck, taller slide boxes, dual AC in every unit and its 6" wider which really makes a big difference inside to give you thigs like 3 person couch, more storage.
And thats just a few things off the top of my head
Thank you very much for this detailed tour!! Appreciate all your hard work in giving these amazing RV videos 🤗
Glad you like them!
I and my wife really like the factory tour and all details on things you can't see normally. Like the composite floors and the double Azdel walls and the additional trusses in the roof. I like the PVC roof material and the ease of maintenance and the ability to patch the roof with basic PVC glue. As far as the solar package goes we are okay with it being optional, not every one may want the solar package and if they do it can still be added.The avenue all access is one of the RV'S we have been looking at as our next RV when retire.We like having the electric fireplace in our current RV. I realize that with smaller RV's that is not always possible. Maybe they could use an AC unit with a heat pump in it like they do in some other models like Airstream or Montana as an alternative. Even if they opted not to add a heat pump we are really thinking of going with alliance as our next RV. thanks so much for the factory tour and all the effort that goes into making that happen and to the alliance team for everything they do and taking the extra time for the video. I hope this is not to long winded and thanks again.
Never too long. Ty 😊
Josh,. Great Job 👍 as Always Also tell BILL
THANK YOU, We are REALLY LOOKING AT THIS BRAND !!
Terry Hickok
Washington State
It was nice finally getting to meet this team in person!
Hey Josh, you did an excellent job. Love all of your great videos and humor. As I always say great information 👍
I appreciate that!
Thanks Josh!! After doing months and months of research on 5th wheels and checking numerous units off our list we recently committed and purchased a Alliance Paradigm. The quality and customer satisfaction just appears to be beyond most other brands. The tour was awesome and just really reinforces me that we made the right decision. Keep on making the fantastic videos. You are honest and give the pros and cons and I really appreciate that. 👍
That is awesome! Congrats!!
Thank you Alliance for the letting us in to see the shop.
😊
I do enjoy your factory tours! I appreciate the business philosophy of this company and their customer service/support as well as their products. Alliance, Brinkley, Ember and a few others are really showing that the old tried and true can still be tweaked by simply changing perspective. Thanks so much for the video!
I agree. Good to see some progress there
Whoa! Thanks for the thorough tour, Josh. Really great job and informative. BTW Colorado Avalanche fans don't say the RW words.
Hahahha
Watched both Brinkley and Alliance tour. Personally i like how Brinkley packed their insulation into the roof. I am anemic so insulation is important.
It’s the little things that matter!!
Super video Josh. I appreciate the insight and transparency from Alliance. Customer Service and support is extremely important to a customer.
Couldn't agree more!
Thanks Josh, absolutely the best factory tour video I’ve seen, so many great detailed shots of how everything is built!!
Wow, thanks!
We love the company and our Alliance Paradigm 340RL! Thank Josh for the great video!
Our pleasure!
That was soo cool to watch! Thank you for bringing that to us. Be safe on the road dude.
Thanks! Will do!
I like seeing the manufacturing process
Awesome thx for watching 😊
I really want to hear more about their travel trailer. I'm buying an RV in 2023, but I tow with a full size (med large SUV).
I want to see a Jayco tour
Will keep you informed on alliance trailers
Have four Jayco tours in my factory tour playlist btw!!
Wow great video. Thank you for the tour. We are looking to get into a rv in the coming year. Alliance has definitely moved to the top of our list. Hopefully they keep the mantra and don’t sell out to the big guys. Thank you alliance and keep doing what you’re doing. We will be a customer!
Great video thanks we really appreciate your videos.
Great job Josh, The plant tour was very helpful,with lots good information.
Thanks Josh
Glad it was helpful!
Great factory tour video! Thank you for taking the time to pull it together. It is great to see companies that are doing things the right way! My recommendation for a future factory tour is Grand Design. Also, a definite yes on including a base solar package...at minimum enough to support the 12v refrigerator.
I'll buy one next time.
That was a superexcellent tour of a very impressive manufacturer. You and Bill have given me a great amount of confidence in the product. Thank you!
I think I can speak for Bill when I say "Our pleasure, Ted!"
What an awesome company! Worth every penny! Thanks Josh!
Our pleasure!
It would be nice to see a handicapped or wheelchair accessible unit! I know they’re probably not popular but I think a blueprint of a possible build or a model of one would elevate their public outlook of caring for the diverse market! 58:10
Their wide body would actually be a good fit...
Great job - love your videos!!!
Awesome tour of a great rv. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much! Finally! The rig I have been looking for with wonderful people who still take pride in their work! Joy!
That's what happens when their leadership fosters a place people actually WANT to work
Because of this video, I’m subscribing today. I need to see a Grand Design video as this is what I own, before winnebago bought them.
Welcome aboard!
Fantastic content for what appears to be an excellent product. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
