It starts, and ends with the quality! If the build is solid, everything else can be dealt with! It looks very nice, but we will know in a couple of years when the reviews are rolling in whether it will be a hit or a flop! Having said all of that, this is a great first impression. I have to give the team credit for stepping outside the box, and giving the buying public a truly beautiful motor home!
Tony and Nancy, thanks for the kind words and we hope you can see one LIVE soon!
Hi 👋 Matt and Wil.!
Congratulations on being the first to introduce this new product.
Very nice coach nice European styling and innovation. 🎉❤
Thank you
Grand Design,
Mike and Mr. Clark.
Thanks for the kind words Diana. Matt and Will did a great job with Mike. Have a great 4th!
Grand Design knocked it out of the park on this one. This is the first really innovative RV I've seen in a long time. After the Lippert frame issues, they've got to work on regaining consumer trust, but Mercedes is NOT Lippert.
maybe they will not try and gouge us on pricing.......not!
Pete, thanks for the kind words. Mike Hums, the engineers and the entire GD team have put a lot of thought and careful consideration into the Lineage launch. I think you are really going to like our new chassis halo design. Hope you can see one soon!
Problem is the Mercedes motor has issues and welding and bolting the cab into that Mercedes frame is the issue.
@@trextv2154 so sad. I recommend boycotting buying anything on the Mercedes chassis then.
@@gosman949 nah I’d buy a Mercedes tiger tank any day of the week!
Thank you Matt and Wil for going to New York to show us this awesome new motorhome! Gorgeous interior! 😍
When I think of Grand Design the first thing that pops into my head is Ford Pinto.
😅😅
The RV industry is screwed. I have been shopping and the quality of the build and materials is crap. And the service and manufactures are not standing up and dealing with the issues in a timely way. When you spend hard earned dollars you expect everything to work and hold up to road trips. What I see is sub standard quality and the lack of companies taking care of the issues, You buy it its yours. For now I will not purchase one. All of them are building sub quality products.
It's an RV going down a road like a hurricane and earthquake, not a Frank Floyd Wright building. You get what you pay for.
“Get what you pay for”
That would be awesome but it’s not the case.
Marty, thanks for the reply. I think you will see something very fresh and unique with our Lineage Series M. The quality is like nothing else, the craftsmanship is 5star and we will be taking steps to be a leader in service and warranty coverage. Have a great fourth!
SO SO True thanks
air stream buddy
Looks good. The inverter needs to be 3000 watt. 1k is almost an insult as it can't even run a coffee maker. I don't want to run the generator just the make my morning brewm
But he said they are deleting the generator with the power package, so no, you won’t be running it anyway!
Yep it sold have been 3000watt with the 600watts of solar.
@@theheartoftexas but what will the cost be on that power package!
600 watts is the joke. 1 rain/cloudy day your lights won’t be working let alone the coffee pot.
I like what we’re seeing 😊. Obviously a LOT of thought has gone into the design. Looking forward to the full review!
The placement of the stereo must have taken months to decide on down at the focus group in the ALF.
Perfect for us, thanks to Mike for knowing his product. So often I ask salespersons who have no idea.
That's because he's not a salesperson. :)
Thanks for your positive feedback! Have a great holiday!
REAL king bed 👍👍 Nice. Smart. Dovetailed drawers instead of staples, very good. Looking forward to production units and an inspection by Blue Ox of one
JWW, thank you for your kind words. Not only is it a true 80 inch king, but as shown in the video, the perimeter of the bed if firm, preventing "slip off." Very cool, seemless bed design with storage. After production, all of our units are weighed, followed by a 300 point inspection, then run through our state of the art rain/wind simulation and finally, the road test. Have a great holiday!
The outside paint job is amazing. I'd have to see the dark ceiling in person. I would like to see it with the slides in to see how it will work on road trips. Great video. Can't wait for your review.
Kelly, thanks for watching and for the positive feedback. We spend a lot of money on our paint so it looks great and POPS! I wouldn't say it's a dark ceiling, but darker shade for sure. It's sharp, unique and goes well with Eurpoean flavor inside. Hope you can see one soon!
It’s sad that this debut has to follow an overwhelming distrust of Grand Design for their past lack of empathy for the many buyers that purchased brand new GD RVs with serious safety issues.
I was going to say the same thing, especially for a new untested in the market product.
Ditto. Thank you for stating this because I wanted to say the same thing!
I wouldn’t buy nothing from Grand Design. They treat their customers like crap. They need to stand behind their 5th wheels
Matt, wife and I now live in Elkhart county. Been playing PB since 2005. Hit me up if you want to play while here. Jeff and Anita Shank
Don’t buy trash.
I like what they did here. Would love to see a Murphy bed and twin bed option as well excited to see the ford E series and see if they continue with the interior.
Looks like Grand Design did a great job designing their 1st motorhome! Hope the compass decal on the cab bunk window is optional.
that compass decal looks like a Masonic emblem!
@@gosman949 I'm sure there are many who would like that lol
Thanks for the kind words Celeste! I hope you can see one in person soon! Hope you have a great 4th!
All they did was copy Tiffin except not near the quality. I do like the sink.
Finally a Class C/B+ with such a big bed! I’m 6’2” so I’m really glad to see an 80” long bed. My Travato bed is 80”. That’s what sold me on that Class B.
I think it was 80" wide and 70" long, it's called a short King.
Rear bed is 70” wide and 80”
Long
Thanks for our positive feedback Lawrence. We are happy you like our standard king bed! We hope you can see one in person soon! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design.
At this point, anyone who buys a Grand Design, deserves a Grand Design.
Won't be long til Liz Amazing gets a call from a new owner on how crappy it turns out to be!
And the Carsons will be needing more content.
Billy, thank you for your feedback. We strive to listen to our audience. I think you will be impressed when you see in person, the Lineage M Series. Have a great holiday!
I was surprised. I'm not a fan of class c's but was impressed with this one. I love the full body paint, and that it has a lot of options. I'll be interested to see the quality over time.
Things I love: 1) bigger CCC! 2) the Euro winfows, especially in the bedroom slide 3) Side opening doors 4) big fold up counter extension 5) big rear closet (I don’t even think we could gill that). Things I wish I could change: 1) Add a rear ladder…otherwise I have to carry one. 2) there doesn’t seem to be much exterior storage. Not even sure I could carry my camp table, grill and 2 camp chairs. 3) I would like to delete the exterior tv, not sure if that’s possible. 4) Hoping if you upgrade the power package you get more than a 1000 watt inverter. Overall, a huge win for putting a king size bed in there…and the warranty is better than the View.
Wholeheartedly agree on deleting the exterior TV. We have one on our current coach and I haven't opened that door since the dealer walk through. Probably never will either.
I do not see the point of the outdoor tv or outdoor speakers. I would rather have the bit of space for storage. And, that inverter needs to be increased to 3000 watts. 1000 watts is not nearly enough. How much weight will the bunk hold? How useable is it with that slide in? Is there queen option on the bed? I think I would have to wait and see actual use performance before considering this class c. And, why no ladder on the back?
As one that loves this size it is great seeing how all the companies are building and addressing issues from clients in the past. This looks great and it is great seeing Grand Design jump into this sector. Thanks for sharing! Great job!
Love this unit and the square design with black makes it feel futuristic! 👌 ❤ the king bed is a plus!! I also love when you have Will with you so we can get a better idea on the size of everything, great job guys! 👏 👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Thanks for the positive feedback Karen. You are going to love it in person! Hope you can see one soon. Have a great fourth!
Check out Wil's giant head at around 11:40 :D
😃😃😃
😂😅
New Bobble head. 🎉🎉🎉😂❤😂😂😅
And I just noticed one of his legs is a stick leg! 😂😅 LoL
Poor Wil, getting roasted.
Beautiful! 3 things I love- windows that open!, king bed! Rear closet. Things I don’t like- extra counter top that opens into the doorway always seems like a bad design, no separation between the bed and kitchen. A curtain please for light and privacy, that’s it. Looks like a great Rv!
Agree, except I like the countertop.
It's not boring, it's very very interesting. I love learning all the in and outs that go into making the Rig.
We have a 2021 GD travel trailer & have had no problems in our almost 4 years of ownership ❤
Thanks for the feedback Kathy! Have a great holiday!
Matt, This is Above & Beyond. #1 the Bathroom Sink Cover THE BEST never saw that before. Thanks Again for All Your Great Videos "Bing" Chris and Rick From Chicago ♥️
Wow! This is the exact floorplan we have been researching. The acrylic European windows, side slam latch cargo doors, excellent interior storage, innovative design, and surprisingly affordable pricing for a Mercedes chassis. This goes to the top of our list. Now to see how the quality and warranty issues pan out for this new unit over time, and we could have a major contender for hitting the road upon retirement in 2027. Thanks for this presentation!
They will BK by then !!!
TJ, thanks for the positive feedback! Our focus on this build was safety and quality. You will see both in a factory tour video coming soon. You are going to love what you see in person, and the new warranty, too! Have a great holiday!
I wouldn’t take a chance on anything Grand Design because they wouldn’t stand behind their RV’s -I don’t trust them 🤷♀️
I always got everything fixed where there was a problem and free parts even after the warranty was expired. I'm happy. Most of the time it's the dealers that screw up and lie about stuff. I always call the warranty people to make sure they are on the same page as the dealer.
Lol you are greatly mistaken.
I like this format Mat, perspective insight from the designer.
Lots of gr8 innovations in this rig . I love the pocket screen door .
Thanks for the positive feedback Shawn! We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
@@GDMotorizedI am not sure it would keep a pet inside and doesn’t look like you can install a screen defender.
I hate the way they put their name in gigantic letters on the front and back. It's a bit much.
Thanks for your feedback. I will pass it along to our design team. Have a great holiday!
Great debut of a beautiful B+ motorhome. The inside is beautiful & thoughtfully designed. And I love the sideways slam latch doors!
I guess you missed the fact that this is a GD. They don't honor their warranties...
@@TalonID I didn't miss that. I didn't say I'd buy it. I like the features and how it's designed.
You don't need to add negativity just because of the brand and reputation. You could find something nice to say, I'm sure!
@@TalonID I never had a problem with warranty, they have gone out of their way for me.
@@EarlBalentine You're lucky, I had to get a lawyer evolved and my unit was bought brand new. It was out of commission for months and months and returned with the same flaw. Then, they declined to fix it.
@@pattyolson3842 I was being nice based on the hell they put us through.
Hey, Matt. Not boring at all. Great motorhome.
Thanks for the feedback! Happy 4th from Grand Design!
Excellent dealer review. Love this unit. Thank you
Great video ! Can’t wait to see this rig again on Matt’s RV Reviews
You could say "Grand Design produces a superior amalgamation of European and American layout and components, to add something fresh and new to motor-homing enthusiasts!" 🤗
Looks very nice! I can't wait to see the quality of it in person!
It's a Grand Design it will fall apart in front of your eyes
@@sarahann530 🤣 Most likely!
Thank you RVtalktv! We too, hope you can see it soon! Have a great holiday!
Nice rv, I like the theater seat option and would like to see theater seats
Thanks for the feedback Lee! Theater seats will be standard and we will have pictures on line, very soon. Have a great fourth!
Thanks for the feedback Lee. Theater seating will be standard. Keep an eye out for pictures/videos coming soon! Happy 4th from Grand Design!
@Matt--you really need to upgrade your micing setup. Clip-on wireless lavaliers would help bring your game up a ton. Call Sweetwater in Fort Wayne, IN. They'll hook you up.
I guess they missed the rear garage. It’s an absolute must these days. Propane, that’s old news. Full electric please. Very nice interior though.
Thanks for your feedback Joe. Happy 4th from Grand Design!
Great RV!!! Had a good laugh at Will's reflection at the slide out 😂!!!
Haha! I was wondering if anyone would comment!
11:40 Bobblehead pirate leg Will!! 😂😅
I'm back to watch it again!
There is no way we’d ever buy another Grand Design. So many issues and dealers backed up with service you end up doing the work yourself. Plumbing and electrical was terrible. Suspension issues, interior falling apart. And what made us sell it, backing into our driveway and the roof separating from the body of the coach. We now have an Arctic Fox and have only had one minor issue that was promptly addressed by the Manufacturer.
Kudos for buying a rig made in Oregon. As you have experienced with your old rig, anything made in Indiana is crap. Stay away from anything made in Indiana. RV management only cares about the bottom line - building quality RVs is not in their vocabulary. Remember, RV executives and line workers all live in that area of Indiana. They move from company to company bringing with them the same crappy workmanship they used in their previous company. Crap is crap and you have virtually no recourse against these RV companies because they donate $$$$$ to politicians not to regulate their crappy ways.
Keeping the batteries away from the bed area is crucial! First one I've seen!
If the batteries catch fire, good luck getting out!
Thanks for the positive feedback! Lineage has been in the works for over a year. Lots of thought went into the entire unit. Have a great holiday!
Not sure because I haven't seen it with the slide-out in, but I don't think you can use the bed or the bath unless it's out.
Great design! Would like the dinette to be a jack knife sofa with attached tray tables for eating. Can't wait to see the rest of the grand design class c designs.
Power Theater Sofa with dual tables is standard in production models, the dinette will be the option
Thanks for the positive feedback Jessica! We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Oh, that'll look great going down the highway with the slide stuck out
Grand Design and Keystone are the Boeing of RVs
🤣
that bad?
Thank God for all the logos. I wasn't sure who the manufacturer was.
Crazy, the laptop I am using has one logo on it and no company name but one look and you know who it is. btw, I didn’t notice, was there a logo in the toilet bowl under the water?
That is because Grand Design is a Freemason phrase. The compass is a Freemason symbol. It's a Freemason Company. #KnowYourEnemy
The Grand Design script on the front doors is the most tacky.
😂😂😂😂😂
Perhaps all the logos on this is because it is a prototype, and is going to be filmed alot. Hopefully the actual productions will not have all the advertising of the brand.
Matt, I’m watching this video for the second time that’s my city that’s where I was born and raised from 1966 to 1984 and then I went to your neck of the woods Naval Training Center, Orlando, FL and that’s where life began. Nothings changed the sirens. The loud people only thing missing is the ghetto birds, otherwise known as helicopters, thanks for bringing back the memories when I went to Boot Camp. I couldn’t sleep for two weeks because there were no sirens helicopters and other activities on the streets shout out to Orlando Florida salute.
This is a game-changer.
Mike being easy on the eyes is a bonus. ❤
Hard on my eyes lol.
As an Asmoke user, I can't express enough how it has revolutionized my outdoor cooking experience. I used to own a Traeger, but after switching to Asmoke, I couldn't be happier. The compact and portable design makes it perfect for my RV trips and camping escapades. The temperature control is precise, ensuring my food is cooked to perfection each time. But what I love the most is the distinct smoky flavor it imparts to the food, thanks to the wood pellets. It's like having a professional smoker in your backyard. The convenience of the digital controller and the versatility of cooking methods truly makes Asmoke a game-changer for me. So, whether I'm in my backyard or on a road trip in my Grand Design Motorhome, my Asmoke grill is my trusted companion. #Asmoke
I'm in love with this coach. I love that it has good amount of solar and a generator. Love the interior storage and design. Full paint job is beautiful but I'd go without for better price. Love the side open slam latch doors outside. I need one
LOL. That is an essentially useless amount of solar.
Pam, thanks for the kind words and feedback. I hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from Grand Design!
I have to say this looks like they've really done a lot to stand out in the marketplace and built something that could be outstanding. Great video here as usual Matt and company. The energy of the project lead Mike Holmes really says a lot.
Thank you "Stresslesscamping." Mike Hums and the team have done a tremendous job on the Lineage, bringing to market, a ton of Eurpoean flavor, thoughtful design and passion to be the best. Have a great holiday!
I love that I can choose theater seats or the dinette.
Thanks for the positive feedback Sandy! Yes, the theater seats will be standard, with dinette option. We hope you can see one in person soon! Hope you have a great 4th!
Love the length. Love the shower drain. Love the sleek design elements. Would prefer a sofa that pulls out to a twin bed instead of a dinette, or no dinette with a totally closed of queen/ king sized bedroom, instead of the King size in the kitchen area.
Also hope it has a larger fresh water tank for boondocking in State parks.
Thanks for the feedback Charlotte. Glad you liked what you saw. The theater seating will be standard, with an upgraded booth dinette as optional. The King bed is towards the back of the coach so you shouldn't have any kitchen intrusion. The only kitchen item close to the bed, is the fridge. But who doesn't want a midnight snack:) Have a great fourth!
Oh wow! Excellent job Grand Design’s! Well done🙌🏼❤️
Thanks for the positive feedback Tish! Hoping you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
I can't wait to see one in person! I hope they give me a good trade in value for my 2019 GD 2800 BH. It has given me zero problems and made me a Grand Design owner for life!
My parents picked their MH up from the dealer after a standard service to have smoke come from the stairs where their batteries were. Seems something had shorted. Batteries especially lithium should not be blocking a way out of the RV. In the least there should be temperature monitoring or even fire suppression. They have it on boats. Why not RVs?
I just put in my own fire suppression, Amazon, our Batteries are under the entry step, makes sense right, our only way out.
There is no safety enforcement in the Rv industry, it’s a Wild West show
Looks like Matt will push any Rv company no matter how bad their rep is.
Love that you hit him with CCC right out of the gate !! That’s a good weight for the Mercedes.
Thanks for the positive feedback Tom and Missy! We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Congratulations on the debut Matt!
How's the build quality, did the QC department check each stage of build so showers are sealed, backing tape is removed, blackwater and grey water runs are supported and not hitting moving parts. Do the fixing screw actually screw into the backing frame or only into the interior skin.
If the customer does find problems will the factory or dealership fix it free of charge?
The US RV industry has such a bad name it rubs off on all manufactures, so get your team in gear and turn out some GOOD PRODUCTS for a change.
And how fast will it start delamination?
Thanks for the feedback TheByard. Stay tuned for a factory tour with Matt, Will and Mike in the next couple weeks as we approach 7/15 production. The motorized facility is state of the art with MANY items that are, first to market. Every step of the way is done with superior craftsman ship and with safety/quality in mind. I think you will like what you see! We are also launching a first to market "special" warranty with our Lineage product line up. Grand Design will be walking with customers every step of the way!
This is simply beautiful. It looks different from all others, and I guess the MSRP will probably be a little bit high.
Richard, thanks for the positive feedback! Pricing will be available soon and not as high as you might think. Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Shower dimensions? It looks neat so far. I think if they can get quality right, they'll blow away the competition. Quality is #1 with all the Tiffin owners I know.
I must say, I really like this RV. I wish I could get one, but maybe someday.
Great video Matt & Wil & Jen! 🤙☺️🤙
Wait a couple years. Junk yards will be full of them when they fall apart. You can get it cheap and rebuild it the right way then.
Thanks for the feedback! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Thank you mike for showing the screens for the windows by the dinette
Thanks for the positive feedback Patricia! We hope you get to see one in person soon at a dealer near you. Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Yes. Logan and Kelev approve this B+. Great interior end exterior. Can’t wait for the first actual review. Now we wait for tomorrow’s reveal of Wil & Jen’s new 5th Wheel. I’m so excited. Uncle Mac in Peru.
Great debut!
Were not really looking for this size rig, but man, this thing is SLICK!
I hope they add a curtain to the bed area, and hope its available on a diesel chasis.
The M Series is only available in Diesel
@@mhums76 Good Copy. Thanks for the I fo!
Thanks for the positive feedback Mr. C! We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
This is how we do baby.
Hardcore cool European material for sure.
Love the floorplan and that it is on the larger MB chassis. Wish MB still had the larger diesel. Looks like lots of quality features. Currently have an Airstream Interstate and this looks like the perfect upgrade. One nitpick, giant compass in front glass detracts from the window and smaller names on cabover would be nice. Like the raised names on sides. Explaining construction wasn't boring. It would be nice if more manufacturers had some contruction techniques to be proud of!
Production Models will have smaller names front and rear
Thank you for your positive feedback. I hope you can see one in person soon! You will love it! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Awesome video, i love when someone in the manufacturing of these units goes thru them. Thanks Matt and Will
Thanks for the positive feedback Lisa! Mike Hums does a great walk around video, agree! Have a great fourth!
With Will and Matt in there, you've already exceeded the GVW 🤣
So is this going to fall apart like their trailers/fifth wheels?
Why in the world would they do a “SHOWING” of a new rv lineup in the most RV unfriendly city in the country ?
With that said NICE Job on the video Matt 👍
This Grand Design we’re talking about. After all they are still allowing dangerous trailers on the road knowing that frames are breaking. I have to figure the corporate executives have a room temperature IQ.
The variety of textures in the kisluxbag pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
The Lineage is beautiful on outside and inside. Great size. Great innovations. I would love to own one.
Thanks for the positive feedback Diane! We hope you can see one on person soon, at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from Grand Design!
Looks great! Big bed in a 25ft Class C. I might just want to trade in my new class C for one of these! Love the European designs, large windows, lots of pantry drawers. Can't wait to see it in person!
Thanks for the positive feedback Susan! You will love it even more in person! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Thank you. Beautiful truck. Only I would prefer theater chairs across from the TV. Your rig is beautiful 😍. Impressive Mike. I'll check bk. I wont be ready for a minute. Your rig is definitely a front runner. Thanks again.👋🙂
Thanks for the positive feedback Lin! Theater seating will be standard of the Series M. We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Great revue. But I had to laugh at Will's reflection in the clear coat. Pause it at 11:16 and see how big wills head is compared to his body because of the slide. Lol
😂 saw that as well. Imagine the kids at the park, playing with their reflections. 😅
The clear coat has the worst orange peel ever, extremely poor application.
Love the factory first look. Its a one of the nicest C minus out there.
With consideration of the current situation with Grand Design, a better name would have been Grand Design 737 Max.
fFames came from another company but they did respond slow about the frame issues, but they finally stepped up and are addressing the problems.
@@CPO-Snarky yep, that translates to boing down the road as the welds break.
I'm normally not all that interested in the Merc units, being Will's older twin, they've always felt a bit cramped to me... but Grand Design doing something motorized definitely caught my interest...
Outside: looks awesome, I normally skip ahead on the walk-arounds unless there is something particularly unique about the unit, but this looks *really* sharp. The bobble-head moment with Will around 11:40 was great, but also around that time Mike pointed out the rack on the roof, however I didn't see a ladder or any real way of utilizing it...
Inside: LOVED the darker roof and lighter interior -- the contrast is great! The bathroom looks a little cramped for me personally but usable and expected on this size unit. Overall looks great and usable. I also really liked the AC with the slotted vents, especially if it performs well -- more AC = more better in my book.
My Wishlist: An option to replace the cab bunk with storage/cabinets, might even bring in the nose cap a bit with this option. Option to replace the dinette with a free standing table & chairs (I have a somewhat irrational hatred of booth seats ) - I do see on the site that theater seating is a planned option but I'd need to see how it actually looks in the floorplan. The king bed is cool, but a queen with a little extra storage on the side might also not be a terrible option to make it feel a bit more open in the back of the unit.
Overall: seriously fantastic, this is the maybe the first time I've seen a Merc chassis and had more than a passing interest in it from a 'whats the latest tech' perspective.
Dan, thanks for your great feedback! I'm glad it caught your eye and I hope you get to see it in person very soon! Have a great 4th!
This is the sickest RV in its class I have ever seen. I had a few I was considering... But this makes the other look like amateur hour! Good Job guys! WOW!
Not sure this was the best timing for GD to launch a new product after the last two hard years of media coverage on their other products having quality issues with their frames. I may wait two years and see how these units age in the field before putting down money.
Also, I wonder how may GD employees are here making comments?
Have to wonder too
Hi Todd, thanks for your feedback. You are going to see and feel something new with the Lineage launch. I urge you to keep an eye out for our factory tour video and of course, see one in person when able. Have a great fourth!
Rewatched this again - are they really saying that with the upgraded power package you wouldn't be able to run your a/c? GD spokesman said it's a 1000 watt inverter and a/c needs the generator. We'd like to upgrade to lithium, second alternator, upgrade the inverter, AND be able to run the a/c. Would also like to keep the genny, too. This is allowed in the current Ekko Sprinter.
The Power Package is an LP Generator Delete Option. (Powered by Lithionics Lithium Batteries and Victron Energy Components). This option includes an additional 660 A/Hr (on top of the std 260 A/hr) total of 920 A/hr of Lithium. Secondary Alternator. 12V/3000VA Inverter for 110V house loads w/ 120A 12VDC Charger. 110V/50A MPPT Solar Controller. 600W Solar (std). Communication Hub. More information will be on GD RV Website soon
Absolutely love this Class C! So many great features. You can tell they built it with the rv’er in mind. I’m looking for a Class C but not ready for this one..Yet! Maybe in a few years once they work all the kinks out. Glad to see GD going into the motorhome products😁
Thanks for the positive feedback Angela. We are glad you liked what you saw and I'm sure, will love it in person! Happy 4th from Grand Design!
Im prefering the theater seat option. The bedroom needs a curtain to separate it from rest of RV. Looking forward to the Ford AWD option. I hope you lose the cab over bed and do a twin bed in back. A strong new entry well done
Thanks for the feedback Jeff! Yes, we will have 3 chassis launching in Class C-Mercedes 4500, Ford F600 and Ford E 450. We will also have a privacy curtain available between the bed and kitchen area. Have a great day and happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Nice floor plan. Removable 5 gallon propane tanks would be great - do a bottle exchange, or fill the bottles without having to drive into an awkward refill location. Can you get the Lineage in white?
Thanks for the feedback EJS! The paint options are either midnight (black) or pearl (white). Within those 2 sets, you must subset in either Sage, Wave, Cabernet or Slate. Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
GREAT video/info/product/salesmen/presentation - five stars !!!
Thanks for the kind words Tony! We hope you can see it in person soon! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
Another awesome video Matt & Will.
Love the floor plan on this rig, wish it had a three burner stove and an oven!!! But the rest of the rig is great, love it!! Thank you Matt and Will for a great daybu!!
Thank your for the feedback Vicki. We think you will love it even more in person! It's stunning! Have a great fourth!
I am a one burner stove top. We are all so different. It would be nice if we could have it the way we would like it to be as it would be more cist effective and useful to each of us.
I love the features in this Motorhome. The inside is beautifully designed with a real king bed considering how short it is. That window by the dinette is awesome for airflow.
I am frustrated by all the negative comments about Grand Design and their 5th wheel frame issues, because this is not the place to voice those criticisms. Comments should be about this motorhome.
Thank you for your POSITIVE feedback Julie. I hope you can see one in person soon! You will love it! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
I know you were biting your tongue, Matt. Understandably. You know there are many issues, shortcomings, with this rig. Many issues. At some point in the future you'll give us an honest review of this rig.
Lol! He took a quick break to thank the non-existant sponsor of the video. 😂
The grand design guy giving the tour is so patient!
LOL. Thanks for the positive feedback! We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
1000 watt inverter? Get rid of the propane stove. Add induction. Hope they come out with a twin bed model.
I'd like an option to have a twin bed so could have dog kennel(s) in remaining space, or have twin beds raised so kennels could go under or in open space.
Love the sink cover in the bathroom!
Thanks for the positive feedback Tammie! Happy 4th from Grand Design!
I have been looking forward to GD's first class C for a long time. Unfortunately, GD did not update its website today as stated in the video. You have to sign up to get more info on the Lineage. It would be nice to know when viewers can actually look it over without subjecting themselves to sales folks.
Haha. I knew it was going to be prime pooping position cuz the little Matt emoji popped up earlier before you even made it to bathroom! LOL. Very nice class C and nice presentation!
I actually really love this!!! I just hope that since it’s new that it’s not crazy expensive, but I’m sure it will be. I guess that’s to be expected when something is new.😊
$ 200k
Thanks for the positive feedback Tiffany! We hope you can see one soon at a dealer near you! You might be surprised by the cost of ownership, in a good way. Happy 4th from all of us at Grand Design!
@@GDMotorized thank you very much, u too😊
I hope the windows don't pop out when driving down the road like they do on your 5th Wheels 😂
