It's RV show time we recently took a trip over to Seattle for the 2015 Seattle RV Show
at Century Link Field.
WE really love checking out new RVs and there was a lot to see this year.
WE're about to share some of the highlights of our day, plus there were some things we
really liked, and some things we thought were kind a lame.
SO STICK AROUND.
Hey guys.
So we're heading to Seattle.
We are on the ferry.
WE call it the boat.
We're gonna ride the boat to get to Seattle.
But it's a beautiful day.
It's been raining alot lately and the sun kinda came out today for us so it's pretty
cool.
Otherwise, it would be raining and Melissa would be second guessing this whole Seattle
RV Show plan.
Hey.
WE're back here again at Century LInk field.
Home of the Seattle Seahawks.
Anyway.
Next year.
Let's go check out the RV show.
Now since we're at the home of the SEAHAWKS, we thought there might be some Seahawks themed
campers and RVs on display.
And you know we were right.
THere were several RVs that are decked out with Seahawks colors and logos.
Several of them actually sold.
And of course we had to check out all of the Seahawks stuff.
Even Richard Sherman?
"Sup!
Man"
ONe of the new features we saw on several new RVs were these transformable bunk areas
that would actually transform to usable living space.
So I really like this.
I've always been opposed to RVs that have the double bunks.
It just seems like a waste of space because that's all you can use it for.
But this one actually utilize the lower bunk as a table.
This is great for the kids to come back here and play games or whatever.
THe upper bunk can be lowered or raised if you don't need it.
It's a desk area, gaming area, whatever.
Pretty cool.
26 foot fleetwood.
They all have this drop down bed.
You could put stuff up there.
You could put a mattress up there.
I don't know.
Does this one have anything you're interested in?
It has FLAIR.
There are always Toy Haulers on display at the RVshows we go to.
We've seen them in trailers, fifth wheels, even toy hauler class A RVs.
But this one I have never seen.
It's a toy hauler CLass C RV from Thor.
So you basically have to sleep in the bunk if you have a class C toy hauler.
I guess if you have toys.
Nice furniture for the garage.
It's kind of like a rec room huh?
Now I remember years ago seeing a country coach veranda RV that had a deck on it.
We thought that was the coolest thing ever.
In fact it was the coolest RV at the show that year priced at over 1 million dollars.
However, these days you can get a deck on many RVs if you buy a toy hauler.
Most toy haulers ramps transform into a party deck.
What do you think out on the party deck.
People are looking at you.
I think I would be embarrassed to pull out the party deck at a campground.
Did you see anything cool yet......NO Anything you just have to have.....NO
Now of all the layouts that we saw in Class A and Class C Rvs, we really like this layout
on this Bounder Class A. It really seemed to do a great job of separating the kitchen
and dining area from a living room area that kind of make it feel a little bit like....HOME.
Wow.
That's fantastic...what do you call that?
I really do kind of like this split room layout.
It actually feels homie.
Oh it's got a pedestal sink.
It's cute, but I don't know how functional that is.
You need more counter space to put your stuff.
Now what is up with these plastic sinks?
We saw more plastic sinks this year than ever.
It just doesn't look like great quality in an RV.
Even some more expensive rigs had plastic sinks.
We just didn't like it.
One of the things that we really don't like are accordion doors.
We would just rather have a regular door.
Just ask Melissa if she likes accordion doors?
OH NO!
Ha ha ha.
Now here's a feature that I actually really like.
"Hey I'm taking a shower".
But Melissa didn't......NO
THis had a shower facing the bed.
I mean who wouldn't like that right?
No...
Melissa didn't like it.
"Well that's weird though.
YOu're laying here and someone is ...you know" I think that's a selling point.
You want to look at the bathroom?
It's a toilet....
Some RVs we looked at we sporting these new door hinges.
WE say them mostly on batchrooms, but they allow the door to swing in a little bit so
that the bathroom door doesn't swing into the hall or wherever in your confined RV space.That
was pretty neat.
So I have to say something about the decorative options in some of these RVs.
Like this fake tile back splash thing.
Nope!
Not a selling point
ON most RVs you really have to sacrifice space in the bathroom.
You're usually cramped in there and you don't have a lot of room to move around.
But that's not the case in this RV.
This one has a huge bathroom that takes up most of the rear of this coach.
Full sized shower, washer and dryer, closet, lots and lots of space.
Of course it's the most expensive RV at the show for $750,000.
We could do that you know.
This is like Escape to Witch Mountain.
Well that is our take of the RV show here in Seattle.
I hope you guys liked the video.
If you did, give it a thumbs up.
And I hope you liked the comments we had.
If you did or didn't go ahead and leave your comments section below and let's talk about
it.
But, we're gonna go home.
We're kind of tired.
SO we're gonna go enjoy our own RV.
So you guys take care and we'll see you next time.
