This is the Best RV Ever Made.....and I Bought It!!

all right guys i'm back here at the shop and i think it's finally time let's take a look at this beaver let me go get this thing washed and we'll take a look at it it's definitely too dirty for me to show you so it might be difficult to see but this roof is quite filthy it's definitely been a while since it's been washed a little bit of oxidation there can you see okay guys i think this is as good as i'm gonna get it to look i think we can go ahead get back to the shop [Music] so my apologies to everybody watching this channel uh i am sorry if you own an rv or if you plan on ever buying an rv especially diesel pusher you will never find a better rv than the one i currently bought and maybe that's a lot of bluster but i have inspected a lot of rvs in my life and i got to tell you they were not built like this and the previous owner took such good care of it and did every single upgrade that you could ever want done on an rv that there's no reason to buy a different rv other than this one but this is a 2001 beaver patriot thunder besides being an exceptionally high quality rv its claim to fame is that it's the fastest production rv ever built now more on that later but what we're going to do is we'll start on the outside i'm going to show you what's going on on the outside why this is such a high quality rv some innovation that was put into it in 2001 that rv manufacturers still aren't doing anything with and then we'll go inside the inside is even better than the outside i don't know if you guys can see this is a true gel coat fiberglass sidewall when these were built at the factory they were color sanded and buffed and there's no checking on this sidewall the coach is 22 years old now because it was built in 2000 the only notable checking i actually see is in the front door itself right here and that's it the next thing i'll do is bring run the slide-out rooms out because we're going to get on the roof of course but before we get on the roof i do want to show you this not too many people appreciate it but if you might notice right here there's not a fascia molding all the way around there's only one other manufacturer i know that's actually currently even doing that that means this is flush on the outside and there's not a fascia that sticks out for your head to hit you can also see that how it fits in flush on the outside here now i was still a pretty new rv technician when we were selling these new in 2001 and i never appreciated these roofs on the slide-outs but this is a one-piece molded fiberglass roof on a slide-out in 2000. uh it's seamless on the top and you can see it has a slope to it and even a berm right here so if water does come down right here it'll just go here and drain off so there's no actually no way for water to sit up here and if you look in the middle it might be hard to see there's actually a high point in the middle so water can't sit there either so it completely eliminates the need for a slide out topper on this uh it does it's not necessary and because there's no seam right here it's not going to get any water inside the sidewall either it's really kind of ingenious what they figured out in 2000 and even modern rvs aren't built this nice and then that slide out is the exact same thing let's go ahead and get on the roof now there's a 2000 and uh this is a one-piece gel coat fiberglass roof it's not seamless because it does have a seam at the front rear caps but other than that this is still a very modern roof now besides that this roof is in very good condition i did just wash it and i did wash and wax it so i followed my own advice on that this the side radius has recently just been painted now even though the side radiuses are in good shape for paint the rear cap has a little bit of paint peeling on it so that could be touched up a little bit of cracking right up here but that i'm not too worried about and this is just going to be dicor sealant and don't worry i already walked this rear cap and of course i climbed up the ladder sealant looks good i won't deny this insert on both sides is probably at the end of its life i should probably replace that this is the original penguin roof ac in the on the bedroom area uh the previous owner already upgraded all the sewer vents to the 360 siphons and they also put covers over both the fantastic vents we won't do a complete inspection on this but this skylight needs to be replaced it's cracked and it's uh definitely at the end of its life so i do need to replace that you might notice i have a wineguard traveler on here this is a dish network one if i'm gonna buy one that would have been the one i wanted because dish network's a little bit more friendly for month-to-month use but i didn't plan on getting it but that's that's like 1800 sitting right there you'll also notice the previous owner went ahead and installed a wineguard wi-fi uh boost on it so that's already upgraded this solar panel is original from the factory and still works just fine the interface for the entire system in fact still works the front ac the previous owner had literally just replaced and since he was going to replace it he put a heat pump on it so he already upgraded that for me i have a heat pump and over here he took off the original crank up tv antenna but a nice aluminum plate to cover that hole and put the new wineguard tv antenna up here so that's already been upgraded if you look at the front cap right here yeah even when i was power washing that when i was washing the roof i was getting a lot of this clear coating off so this does need to be repainted but that's not going to be uncommon but on a four-year-old coach or a five-year-old coach let alone a 22 year old coach and i already did walk this this looks fine obviously the wind sensor is broken i'm not sure if i'll put one on or not i do have one i just those uh wind sensors all they do is notoriously break so i could replace it and it's just gonna break probably in a week so this is the roof of the 2001 beaver patriot thunder built in 2000 so it's 22 years old and it's worse for wear after 22 years that's how well these were built now this is pre-monaco that's an important thing to remember the biggest issue on this is going to be the skylight needs to be replaced asap and the clearance lights should probably be replaced too but that's not a lot to find wrong on a coach don't worry we will go inside but my next feature i want to show you right here at the entry door ttl engineering entry door big deal a lot of manufacturers use that but it does have a feature from the early 2000s that i wish they would bring back because most modern rvs on their entry door when you open it it just has like a friction uh joint up there to keep the door open and that usually jams up but this one has a posi lock i don't know if you guys remember a posi lock that means it won't close unless you use the handle on the inside or on the outside that is a feature that they need to bring back i'm gonna go ahead and run the awning out because that's another feature that i really like on these beavers now i love box awnings as far as using them um because there's no arms that your head on you can actually park a car under here you basically have a garage maybe fixing them i'm not very happy about but if you'll notice the front the awning actually covers most of the front door so you don't actually have to move from the patio uh out of rent into rain into a tiny little door awning to get inside and track all the dirt inside it's crazy that in 2000 2001 the manufacturers had figured out how to do this that is to say on a modern rv you'll have a box awning or an awning somewhere over here uh but it won't usually protect the entry door you'll have to have another small entry door awning that really doesn't do much to protect the entry door because it's so small and narrow and the driving rain water just gets in there anyways one feature right here that i think is going to be these two windows i wouldn't have ever appreciated them until you started to drive it but these are actually really tall windows and because this doesn't have slide outs on this side which is a nice feature i do like honestly when you're driving you have really good access you can see this probably has the best villa this has the best visibility of any rv i've ever driven as being able to see on this side of the rv driving down the road because you can actually just look straight down the window with the blinds open now another interesting thing is that we have diesel fill on this side and i know it's very very common now but you have diesel fuel on the other side so you can actually fill up from either side i know it's common now but it was not common in 2000 and 2001. and now beaver built their own chassis it's the magnum chassis and it might be hard to appreciate but down in here but those are disc brakes on the front wheels on a 2001 rv and while we're here you can i don't know if you can see that date right there that's 11 of 21. so these tires aren't even a year old yet and those are new tires all the way around now while brakes may not be impressive to you this is impressive to me and something i would want on any rv i bought that's going to be a hydro hot or an aqua hot so i have tankless hot water heat and also hydronic heater and this is the the newer one so it has a smart control board on it this is nearly identical to anything modern maybe a little bit more serviceable than the other ones and these next three doors my goodness rvs aren't built like this anymore with a slide-out over here you can't ever do this but no manufacturer has bus style doors like this for easy access or this one but it's also going to be on the third door too these are solid aluminum doors too they're built incredibly strong and they even have power lock features to it stainless steel trim is in impeccable condition still too but look at that no doors that have to open up that wide that you're going to hit something or vehicle next to you it's almost zero entry this is i think only monaco had this feature on a few of their rvs uh but i think it was so expensive they didn't even put it on more than one or two doors and now it may not be too impressive to everybody because there's not a huge cross bay storage on here because there's a slide out on the other side what i do like is that they used really nice carpeting on the bays this is again two thousand two thousand one it's only recently that a modern manufacturer newmar on their king area started to do more than just and just felt black felt speaker box carpet in the compartments this is really nice carpeting in here and it's a touch that i think you should expect from a luxury rv down to this is across this is the frame itself i don't know if you can see it's powder coated and blue paint this is very very durable now from a technician's point of view i'm not happy that the freshwater tank is actually between the frame rail right there uh but from a design and handling point of view that uh isn't gonna slosh back and forth driving down the road it's right in the center of gravity on the frame rail so it actually does help with handling and stabilization purposes pretty well it almost enhances stabilization we even have a pullout right here believe it or not the previous owner made windshield covers entry door window covers and this is just made out of slant shade cloth that works really well in fact they made another one for the skylight inside i'll show you guys that's a brilliant idea i never would have thought of so just having those covers is a really nice upgrade too and this is going to be the only pass-through bay that'll go to the water compartment we'll see on the other side but yeah it's even set up for an outside tv which honestly you could mount right there even though this is tank access you could mount it pretty easily on that and it's going to be a better outside tv than any modern rv would have without creating another hole in the sidewall i mean it's just brilliant now these fenders right there are actually very thick are thick aluminum fenders with a molded fiberglass uh fender skirt on it so these are actually very durable and long lasting and this compartment right here is going to be where we find our batteries nothing too spectacular in there but this bay i'll tell you people are going to be jealous of my my service bay check my air filter hydraulic fluid filter uh power steering fluid reservoir my fuel water separator my fuel filter i actually have a prime button for the fuel water separator uh you can start and stop the engine from here and have the um the air tank drains and uh onboard air hookup all in this one compartment i don't even have to go to the engine compartment to do everything now if you did see my oil analysis video we did look at this engine already and like i said the beaver patriot thunders kind of claim the theme like i said is that it's the fastest production rv ever built got a massive c12 engine in it from cat and because it's such a short diesel its weight to uh power ratio is so high that this thing drives like a passenger vehicle as far as acceleration goes tow really well that's why i don't know if you can see right about there it has a racetrack profile on it because the previous owner was a race car driver and they used this motorhome to pull their stacker trailer around maybe eventually i'll take you on a test drive with this if you had a keen eye when i opened up that door that means there was no radiator back there because this is a side discharge radiator so uh that's a really nice feature to have too that again was not very very common in 2000 in 2001 even right here unlike some more modern rvs or even country coaches this is an aluminum shore cord door this is not a plastic tint trailer door for for a shore cord on an rv this is a dedicated very durable metal door it still surprises me to this day how many manufacturers make this door plastic and how often those plastic doors get painted with full body paint colors with like three colors on them and they break really fast but it does have 50 amp service on a short cord reel in 2000 this is a sewer hose carrier but this is not going to ever be used because and if you can see down there the previous owner upgraded this to a drainmaster uh sewer hose uh highest quality one that's available fairness i would have never bought that or recommended it to anybody i honestly think of sewer hoses and water hoses in general as consumable but somebody's gonna do that for me okay and it might be very difficult to appreciate this compartment right here but the previous owner had all this uh stainless steel laser cut to be done in this compartment right here and he built this whole this manifold for it and he put in electric drain valves which again i'm not a huge fan of because they tend to bind but he gave me good access to them so i can get to them very easily if i need to manually open them and of course that's why i won't be using this is because he put a super hose carrier right in here and this is the the the waste master uh lippert drain hose this is what you're gonna find on luxury rvs to this day this has a quick connect fitting on it that plug comes out and that just connects that easily look at that i can do it one-handed and of course this still has a valve on it so this can still be closed you don't have to worry about anything and it's a very a long hose so if i were to open it all the way up it'll just keep extending out and extending out and extending out and extending out and extending out so that is at least 30 feet right there that was an unintentional upgrade that i never would have thought i wanted but now that i have it i don't know if i could ever go back and put a switch right there that actually turns the valves on and off this is important to know because when we get to the inside there's no macerator in there i do have a macerator for it but that's not doing anything even the park cable hookup is on a reel that you can pull to wherever you need it to be not something i'll probably ever use but it's even a nice feature to have right there though a city water connection already has a water pressure regulator built into it and this is that other that one crotch bay that comes with the other side so it's a nice place to put other features for it you may not be able to appreciate it but that's not the original inverter that came with this this is a newer magnum uh 2800 sine wave inverter it's another upgrade he gave me and that is an incredible upgrade and right down here because i know you guys are asking that's just gonna be the generator exhaust and that's the aqua hot or the hydro hot exhaust i did bring it up a little bit that i have window awnings on here and these are manual window onions from carefree these would have been the original ones and these are all i would ever recommend and if you notice the fabric's in good shape and it's an acrylic woven fabric having window awnings really is something of a game changer if it's hot or if it's raining and this is really nothing more than surface access to the shower drain again they didn't go with the cheap plastic one they went with the metal one beaver did what motonbego did on their slide-out storage they went ahead and attached the storage box to the slide-out itself so it goes in and out so you have to crawl underneath the slide out to get to your gear you can see they can give me an adapter to go to a standard sewer hookup and super hose if i needed to i know i haven't i have not dwelled on it but these chrome paddle latches are still in immaculate condition too along with that stainless steel on this side this compartment is going to take you to the generator now as a service technician i'm not a big fan of where they mounted this for service for reasons and it does have a propane tank propane tank is a lot easier to access when the slide out room is in but you can get to it okay you can see the airbags on here are in great condition and he recently just changed out the shocks all the way around too i am really sorry that i found something so nice and i'm not trying to rub it in anybody's face but this is nice this is the uh chassis electrical bay and you can see how beautifully it's been put together this is obvious sign of our pride and build and each wire itself is actually labeled on it so it really does help with troubleshooting no complicated electronics or computers i have to deal with on it now on the front of the rv there's not too much to talk about the only thing that kind of i think i think really dates is going to be it has the two windshields on it instead of the one-piece windshield but from my point of view the two-piece gasket set windshields are a lot easier for maintenance purposes for replacing especially for your pocketbook if you have to pay out of pocket for it if you have cracks on one side you don't have to replace the entire windshield you just do one side and it's a little bit easier to do than the modern great big huge uh glue-in behemoth set that could be like 7 500 for a new windshield it's not nearly that much for a one a one piece much the exterior of the rv but probably my favorite surprise that i didn't even know about until i had the rv for a couple months is on the outside check this out it's gonna be on the outside right here orange led lights up there and ground effects or bogey lights all the way around on the bottom that is so awesome and that's just controlled by that switch right there on the dash it does already have led hid lights in both the fog lights and the headlights that's some good projection there that's not even the high beams let's try the high beams see bam bam bam so that was the exterior of the rv i know i took a lot of time showing you everything on the outside of it maybe a little too long but let's go ahead and go inside now because i think the inside is almost as good if not better than the outside before i go any further i think it's important to remember i did not plan on never buying an rv i was not in the market for an rv i did the inspection at a dealership for this rv and i fell in love with it immediately and i could not shake it out of my head and i uh could not let it go and so i actually bought it after doing the inspection obviously i refunded the money on the uh the inspection because that would be unfair but man i'm telling you guys this is a nice coach there are not really such a thing as classic rvs out there but i think this is about as close to a classic rv as you can find beaver was not well known for their luxurious interiors this is still a step down from the marquee so it doesn't have that beautiful clear coat high high polished cabinetry inside but it is still solid cherry wood the finish is still original factory finish on it in fact most of the interior here is still the original factory interior both the drivers passenger seats are still the original fabric it has the original embroidery on it there is somewhere to it not a lot of wear but would you believe me if i told you this rv has 162 000 miles on it and i do appreciate that there's a lot of mileage on an rv but to look like this and have that many miles on it means it was well taken care of and the best thing for anything mechanical is actually to be used so i need to actually use this more i think the dash is still the original dash it is a double stitch dash on it it's a fiberglass dash underneath all this i'm really surprised there's no the plastic's not cracked on the bezel that's pretty common even a year after they were made to have the dash being cracked and it's not now one feature maybe some people won't either appreciate or notice is this is padded fabric on the side walls carpet on the walls as wayne's coating and it is sculptured carpet underneath this plastic here the ceiling is also padded vinyl so unlike modern coaches that are all hard surfaces it's very quiet in here even with the engine running and it also helps maintain temperature because you have all that added insulation from fabric both from the padded fabric on the walls the ceiling even uh right here now before we get to some of my favorite features on the dash i will show you that it does still have visors right here they are not power visors but i actually found these actually work really well i don't have to struggle too hard to grab these driving down the road still a sun visor for the driver's side right here too the privacy curtain is actually true sun curtain so it blocks off a lot of light and a lot of heat which is not something you find on rvs anymore it's usually just the roller shades but this is a very durable thick material and this is still the original curtain now granted it is not a smart wheel and it is a little bit of a tight wheel confinement right here so much so that it does rub on the dash a little bit if you aren't careful when i was working on these things brand new i never appreciated this trip computer i think this is actually uh early edition silver leaf uh now you can do a normal uh digital readout of everything that's going on on your dash on your engine but what i never realized was right here info you can check your tank levels right here this is still the original monitor panel right here the whole system works wonderful so now with this one on when we come to the dash i can see the tank levels right here so i can see the fresh water tank the black tank and the propane it's got built-in diagnostics using this so you basically have a diagnostic tool built in along with your trip uh your fuel just so much things you can do on here i never appreciated this at the time when i was working on them down below the previous owner went ahead and upgraded the head unit so it's a nice kenwood it does have bluetooth capability to it with hands-free calling on it this does come with a two-stage jake break obviously the cruise control and the power mirror control right here this is an upgrade i didn't even know existed from beaver coach sales uh the original leveling system on this i won't deny is a weird strange hydraulic it's called frame leveling so the jacks don't come down to touch the ground they touch the frame it's very very strange i'll try to do a video on it down the road but the previous owner already went ahead and upgraded the honestly the automatic leveling system that never ever worked very well from the factory to a manual system so with that we actually do have hydraulic four-point leveling on on the rv again i cannot explain to you the condition of this rv this is the original fabric that's on here there might be some dirt right here in the suede but even these blinds are really nice blinds the home theater system the previous owner went ahead and upgraded for me also bluetooth capable and he went ahead and upgraded the original sony trinitron tv right here to a vizio now i can't get much bigger of a tv that's probably the weakest point right here but i don't really need a bigger tv it's worked out really well for me it's got the central speaker here and then the two side speakers and the back will be the surround sound speakers and i didn't point it out but that's where the satellite receiver and controller is located and right here is where the wi-fi extender is going to be located that's just your awning control like i said i still have the plastic on the carpet but it is the original sculpted carpet under here and uh it's kind of nice having carpet i won't lie to you guys again the original recliner from the factory and even the original sofa you can still see it's embroidered right there but this one does flip down into a bed and hopefully you should be able to see the padded fabric right there a little bit better and it's not even an offensive pattern or color i think they again went pretty pretty bold but at the same time very safe the countertops it's actually quite a bit of countertop for what is a smaller slide and galley area i did change out this faucet i leaned heavily into the brass because brass brush brass is coming back there is brass hardware throughout the rv but i don't think it looks bad in fact i think it almost looks good to be honest that is it's not overpowering with the what i would call that 90s brass look but this countertop is a solid surface corian countertop does have a a slight color band to it i think it is more black than it is midnight blue sorry that sink cover's not missing it's right here with the inlay beaver icon on it previous owner went ahead and gave me a wine rack in this cabinet too and now sometimes it is the little things that i enjoy but the previous owner went ahead and put a little uh cabinet lights in here that are activated by a switch and that's where we mounted the subwoofer that's about the only thing i've done and again you may not be able to appreciate it but the previous owner put really nice carpet and all the cabinets that is the carpet lined every shelving to help keep all the rattling down might be able to see it in here too previous owner also put in this backsplash so this is not the original factory backsplash but yeah originally this was probably mirrored backsplash if i remember correctly should be a beveled mirror like that they put a nice real stone and glass backsplash in here they did a fabulous job on it it's actually real stone it's not just a sticker uh only thing i would really probably like to add down the road it's just gonna be a piece of wood trim right there that you might see right there so just that right there really did update the look of this galley another niche feature in the galley previous owner gave me an updated convection of a microwave but look it's underneath right here this is the only propane appliance in this rv this is a two burner propane gaggeno stovetop i mean that's crazy it's not even a princess stove when we're talking about the little features that the previous owner did these drawers nobody would have know this but originally these are so old these would be the the lift and pull drawers that you'd have to lift up first but he got frustrated with that he cut off that lock right there and added south coal latches to all the drawers you just pull straight out you don't have to lift up on these and i even have a cutting board with a knife drawer underneath it okay let me get this puzzle out of the way i'm trying to enjoy it either way i don't know if i'm doing it right this is the dinette table uh this is permanently mounted down below and i do have the table leaf put into it but the whole table top does move back and forth so it does slide in and out but the slide out room can be all the way in and you still walk by this even with the table top extended like this now this light that light and then the wall sconces are actually all 110 lights and all the lighting in here has been upgraded too sorry i got the dimmer on to led lights throughout so if i turn on the lights right here these are not fluorescent lights anymore they're led lights these are led lights even the puck lights underneath right here you put a dimmer on and those are led lights in there these are not halogens really mind-blowing how much the previous owner did for me in the galley this is the original ceramic tile in the galley it does extend all the way into the bathroom there but if you look right here this is not an rv refrigerator this is a residential refrigerator i don't know where he found this one that fit this is an older refrigerator but not only does it work but it fits perfectly the only thing i would have ever wanted more would be water and ice in the door but there is still an ice maker right there that is a game changer having a residential rv refrigerator i think is a vital about as thoroughly modern as it gets it's incredibly nice not to have to worry about an rv refrigerator with propane or a cooling unit that might be going bad in the bathroom right here there should have been a velcro strap from beaver but he went ahead the previous owner added that nice slider latch right there for the pocket door and i don't know if you guys can appreciate this is a solid wood pocket door it's a raised panel door too i mean that woods in exceptional condition even the uh trim on the fantastic fan is still cherry wood and i haven't really pointed it out but this is three quarter inch plywood it's veneer covered and it's solid it's not paneling that's been stapled onto framing this is as solid as a house could be we go into the head the water closet it has its own faucet own sink still a solid surface corian countertop its own medicine cabinet you can see the decor on the wall the toilet is a ceramic gravity toilet and just again it's so clean in here you'd think this carpet that's in the bathroom would be in a lot worse shape for being 22 years old you'd think the tile would be in worse shape for being 22 years old but it's not in fact the only broken tile i know about is right there and that's more than acceptable but this bathroom layout is incredibly interesting and unique and i really do enjoy it it's got a middle island countertop vanity with a mirror but that mirror actually works on both sides it has a sitting makeup room area right here with its own lights and those again are 110 lights the closet all solid i mean come on look at this and i remember i told you that there would be another feature inside this is why i don't mind having those electric valves outside you can open and close the valves from the inside of the rv that's really just a feature that you'll find on a really modern extremely high-end rvs like a king air or a uh or a bus conversion at this point that's that's crazy that's wonderful because you got the shower right here and this is a very massive shower the surround the door is hinged so it's not one of those sliding doors that you have to worry about falling off this is a fiberglass surround and here's that uh cover that i told you that the previous owner made it's magnetic it's brilliant i don't know why everybody doesn't make one of these why i like having that valve right there is you can actually open the gray valve right there and with the aqua hot if you're hooked up to power and city water you can just open up the grave valve take a longer shower right there you don't ever have to worry about leaving the shower to empty the gray tank or running out of hot water again that's something i never would have thought of as a tech 20 years ago but as an rv owner now that's game changer because i like taking long showers and that magnetic skylight cover that was brilliant i was not i've never been that smart this does still have the original washer dryer combo from splendid that actually does still work very well apportioned cabinetry it is cedar lined in here and again you can see carpet this is actually really plush floor carpet that's put on all the shelving now possibly the only thing i don't like in here is going to be the accordion bifold door that separates the bathroom from the bedroom but i can live with that back here is going to be the queen-size bed there is no storage underneath the bed as far as it doesn't lift up but there are drawers right there and you know what i forgot to mention on this bed this is just a brand new sleep number bed too it's better than my bed at home now again right here would have been the original tube tv uh i recently just put in this bigger tv and i put it on the uh an articulating arm so i can move it that way i hid the blu-ray player underneath or behind it i did actually line this shell right there with uh ozit material and even this i did put some carpet on there that's nice little found space and there's a really big tv it's much bigger than the front tv but don't worry it's still very viewable from the bed just like that nothing but storage anywhere you can see the countertop in here is the same corian countertop i believe originally there should have been a wave radio back here from bose but it does have an outlet right there for everything to plug into underneath now the previous owner went ahead and updated the closet lights too it might be hard to appreciate but it's all a led light strip in there so not the one little incandescent bulb in there believe it or not this closet is cedar lined still even the closet doors you can see their etched mirrors and those are in intact in great condition they do slide easily that's where the table leaf stores and right here you can turn on the bedroom light the reading light is wall sconces now these wall sconces again are 110 lights and they are dimmable the reason why i pulled this out this is the original owner's manual case everything's still in there this is uh kind of insane that's definitely a sign of a previous owner i don't know who how many owners this has had originally i know i'm at least the third owner because i re the the previous owner was not the original owner but i don't know if there's one or two owners before that but this is such pride and ownership that i'm i feel responsible to maintain the the condition of this rv and not to destroy it now we're almost done with the tour guys i appreciate you sticking with me this entire time we did return to carpet in the bedroom it is sculpted carpet it's still the original sculpted carpet from the factory you can see the walls in here are the same fabric the same padded fabric but here's something that you won't find even in the most luxurious rv being made today it may not seem like much but these are metal ac vents that you can direct very surprising that modern high-end luxury rvs are still using plastic square vents for the ac so that's kind of crazy but there it was guys my 2001 beaver patriot thunder i know you guys been asking to see it for a long time i just finally got some time to to take you guys through it i hope that you didn't mind me being so proud of this really not trying to shame anybody else who bought an rv that's not this rv but it's really hard and difficult not to shame you guys because i really think i found the nicest rv ever made or maintained and i hope to show you a lot more features on it a lot of more things about it in the in the in the weeks to come i appreciate you guys being so interested in it and i cannot explain to you how happy i am with this rv i'm so happy that i'm i'm afraid about telling people about how happy i am because murphy's gonna come back at me eventually but thanks a lot for watching guys and now you know what to look for in an rv uh if you can find a 2000 2001 beaver patriot thunder in this good condition i would say do not hesitate to buy it buy it buy it fast and don't let anybody know that you're stealing it from them wait let me show you one more thing that's not my table top that closes or the easy way to stow that tabletop leaf it's actually right here i have both the slide out rooms in check this out i can walk around the slide out room so this is me walking around the slide out room with the side out room in another one of those things i never appreciated as a technician but this rv is completely serviceable without the slide-out rooms out so i don't know if you can see that slide-out room is in currently and i have all the room i need i can still use this bed if i wanted to and we still have an aisle way even with the side out room in fact when we did that cross-country trip in the contessa we didn't put the slide-out rooms out at all we didn't need to it's very impressive that they were able to make a floor plan or having the sight out rooms and didn't affect the livability of the rv because sometimes slide out rooms break and driving down the road sometimes you need to get the back and there's not an issue getting to the back with the slide out rooms in on this one in fact you can get to everything easily including the refrigerator the shower the toilet every part of the bathroom bieber was doing it right 20 years ago i'd apologize but i can't apologize i love this thing too much and i'm sorry that i'm not sorry that i found this and you guys didn't there really is no modern equivalent i that i can think of of a of an rv that you could get that has all these features that you would want be this durable long-lasting especially at this price and this fun and powerful it's just so well thought out i can't believe it but seriously there is no reason whatsoever for me to have an rv this nice i'm afraid to use it
