an accordion door here everybody notice how it shuts off that way it does and it gets the color changes here which is pretty interesting oh okay okay gives you separation you got a wardrobe here yeah now this would definitely be for wardrobe and then you got two nice sized drawers here yes ma'am very nice now the bathroom here we go now here we go good size for being such a small motor home yes got a big step up it's a 24 by 36. everybody knows i prefer the 30 by 36. um and actually with how big this bathroom is they definitely could have done that i was thinking i was thinking it could have been different yeah because it is space space but it is what it is and it's a nice shower nice medicine cabinet do you have that little sink sponges and a cabinet and then over here you've got a window and uh those toilets caddy corner porcelain porcelain all right shut the door real quick please just barely passed andrea this is a prime pooping position well let me tell you something it was close it was supposed to bump in my legs i wanted to see it myself so uh then finishing up in the bedroom area it's got a queen size yes queen size bed nice window here nice headboard with the side windows in house look nice cross ventilation over there with both windows great storage some cabinets so nice and yes they did give you like a little nightstand at least okay okay and i believe on the other side as well matt uh yep little nightstand so interesting yeah they got over here is where you could mount your tv has the coax electrical outlet nice window and a max air fan i love it well andrea as much as i love it and as great as it is and as nice as it is it's now time we give everybody three things we love about theolante and three things we don't like about it andrea what do we do first let's do three things we dislike about it okay oh you want to go first i'm gonna go first because i have two i might have all three dislikes i'm really gonna go okay you go first this is incredibly hard for me to get to um i don't know does it seem like it's higher to you it's it cut yeah i'm getting that oh yeah i'm getting it because i mean even me i'm like average probably on the shorter but not that short right for me i i would have a really hard time getting stopping that is kind of weird back in there and yeah it just is very tall okay okay that is my dislike that's number one yes i do have a number two okay right here andrea as much as i love the sofa across from the tv if somebody's in the kitchen they're blocking you yes true what can you do though it is very strange yep it is a small motorhome and that's what it's all about and it's one of those things if you want that small compromise right you know you can get into state national parks in this yep exactly so that's number two and then andre number three is there is no real door to close off the bedroom okay it's just this so the bedroom's kind of out exposed to the living room and i'm gonna say for 99 of the time that's okay but that one percent of time when you do have gas you do have families you know what i'm saying it could be an issue yes i agree that's three things we don't like about it andrea now it's time for three things we love about this motorhome oh you're raising your hand together first again go again go girl okay so i love how small this is yes i love the fact that this is small yeah like i said you can get state national parks so what's so nice about it is when this slide was in there was so much room yes there was so much room that i could walk through and i had plenty of space i'm gonna combo that i'm gonna combo that because even with the slide out out it now there is more space absolutely so that's a very very nice feature what you're like okay if you can't that's number one you know what i'm gonna let you go again okay give me number two uh what i like about this i love jayco's quality um i love the fact that even though you have a small motorhome you still got the bunk over the cab which is extremely it's a great size yeah for how small this is yeah a lot of times when you're going into smaller motor homes you will see smaller beds yep and you know you can barely even fit one kid up there i got it so the fact that they gave you this is awesome andrea i got number three okay i had to think on it because i wanted to make it a good one okay here's what i love kind of going on number one this is one of the truly smallest classic ass motorhomes on the market today what makes a class a gas motorhome a class a is the fact that it's built on an f53 chassis okay and part of the problem with a lot of motor homes like the very first one that was ever sold was sold by andre and the guy was six foot four yes he was really tall he was very tall uh you guys saw him in the picture but he he wanted a 26-footer he wanted something small for state national parks but he could not physically fit in a class c motor will cannot fit in a classy motorhome um there's so many people that just can't fit in that e-series chassis with this it's big enough it's long enough you set this back and tall people but not only tall people average size people can fit in this and sit in it and i've even known of people like adjusting this to make the seat a little bit farther back that way they're not super cramped driving so the driving experience is comfortable combined yes with the 120 inch windshield absolutely and that was one of my biggest selling points too is this windshield yup it's a huge windshield all you're driving down seeing america uh getting a panoramic view and it's very very nice well andrea that's it that's the review thank you guys absolute everybody so much for watching and thank you to rv1 of tampa florida 813-659-0008 this unit is
