Shopping for Class B RVs 2024!

[scotttaylor]

I’m not sure there was any RV shopping. We were treated to a Grech promotion

[hughgonzalez]

It really was surprising how critical is this video of other brands other than Grech. Criticism of Thor and Airstream… not a good idea. Not good business.

So in reality the sales price is what the MSRP should be or close to it not over $200k+ which is one of the reason they are sitting at dealer lots other than high interest rates and the extra unnecessary add on fees. This is also one of the reasons why a lot of people are buying the van and either self-converting them of having a company do it for them which in turn they get a better quality build product made to their specifications.

Class B vans selling for almost diesel pusher prices is wild to me - I will never understand it! My '22 39ft DP on a Freightliner raised rail, Cummins 6.7, Onan 8000 diesel gen, Allison 2500, AquaHot, Air ride, and 960ah Lithium upgrade was $270k new. But yeah, these Class Bs have nice power shades :). Can someone please explain the appeal to me? I feel like I'm missing something!

We purchased a 2022 Grech Strada, after 12, 000 miles we traded the van in for a less "techie" unit. The Grech was becoming a maintenance nightmare. The auto closing door was by far the worst problem, the door would not close tight and the door handle did not always engage the door to close. Remember you purchase the vehicle from two different manufactures. Grech and Mercedes. Mercedes said it was not there problem due to all the changes made, our dealership was going to charge VERY large $$ to fix, if they could. I could go on with other problems but will not.
High quality and ride, yes, high quality material yes, customer service was very good. All that said we feel too much technology is being packed into a small space.
What we did not consider was the amount of time that would be spent in the shop fixing the future breakdowns.
Good luck

$18k off $244k is not a "great discount", lol

For $236k I'm finding myself a cherry Country Coach Magna/Affinity that has 4x the living space.

PleasureWay stopping using the power door due to issues with it and the problems to get it repaired. Since it is behind the kitchen and all the cabinets would need to be removed to access the motor. You also didn't mention that Grech only comes with 200 amps of lithium and to get more you need to pay more. 😢

listen at some point price increases are ridiculously unnecessary. let's be honest 300k+ for even the luxury coach is a bit steep. consider you can buy a house a yard, and the hope that it appreciates. 300K, 1, 000, 000, 2.5 million, come on. you could fly to your location buy a luxury car, while there, drive around sell the car and fly back home, a whole bunch of times with that kind of money. cabin, villa, hotel stay 10 stars...

man! hey just my thoughts on pricing.

In my country, our Insurance companies will not insure such vehicles unless Mercedes builds them from their own factory and sells them as campervans, and not as some aftermarket business. Guess they can't justify aftermarket companies charging hundreds of thousands of dollars for some plywood cupboards and fancy lights.

[jacobwalts]

250 k for that? Lmao yall are in lala land for sure

[g-man]

Are there receiver hitches on the Gretch and what are the ratings for towing?

[brucelester]

Can the Grech air suspension be used for leveling?

[toben]

These class B are perfect for a couple that will be going everywhere, especially traveling through major cities and the AWD is a no brainer.
