Complete Motorhome Review at http://goo.gl/4O59ps. These New RUV class of Motorhomes might be just what you are looking for. It’s not a typical Class A RV, and doesn't resemble a bread box. These new motorhomes have far better aerodynamics with a modern and attractive style. Here’s a review of the Thor Motor Coach Vegas & Axis RUV motorhomes. More RV Reviews at http://motorhome-rv-reviews.tumblr.co... The RUV, or “Recreational Utility Vehicle” class of Motorhome was pioneered by Thor Motor Coach with their Vegas and Axis brands of motorhomes in 2013. The Manufacturer looked to fill the void in the North American Motorhome market where it lacked an option for smaller more compact class a motorhome. What could be found was either a cut-a-way utility van cab and chassis or nothing more than an oversized passenger van in the form of a Class C Motorhome or Class B Motorhome. All though these chassis have served as the foundation of nearly 80% of the motorhomes manufactured in the past 30 years. An RUV brings something new to the table… The RUV class is defined by its ability to be small in dimension, but still offer the spaciousness of a much larger motorhome. An RUV motorhome is less than 28 feet in length, narrower than the typical Class A RV at around 94”, with the large “house” space that shares its space with the driver’s cockpit. This is where the magic is, class c motorhomes have to dedicate its cockpit to one task, driving, RUV and larger class a motorhome have the benefit of not wasting this space. This configuration in addition to the large driver and passenger windows and massive front windshield makes it very comfort to drive and maneuver. My wife, who would never get behind the wheel of a Class A Motorhome over the past 16 years choose to make an effort. Once she did, she felt comfortable enough after 20 minutes to drive in Dallas, Texas rush house traffic without hesitation. I found that the Vegas RVs have plenty of power from its Ford V10 engine. “We call it an ‘RUV’ — a Recreational Utility Vehicle. It’s small and nimble enough to drive around town — but when you’re at, say, your kid’s soccer game and there’s a break or the weather turns, it gives you a place to relax, use the facilities, have some lunch — everything you can’t do in an SUV.” – Thor Motor Coach The Vegas and Axis motorhomes are the first Class A motorhomes to be built on a Ford E-series chassis without the cab; these pint-sized motorhomes are only about 5 feet longer than a Chevrolet Suburban. But while these RVs don’t cost much more than an SUV, it is certainly capable of so much more. I believe the Axis/Vegas RV use of the Ford E-350 chassis, V-10 Triton engine, and five-speed TorqShift-equipped transmission offers a number of advantages over other chassis options. Number one being price. One option would be manufacturer the motorhome with a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter motorhome chassis, this most likely would increase the MSRP by as much as $15,000. The Ford chassis also uses regular gasoline that’s easier to find and cheaper to purchase. The E-350 RV Chassis also allows for higher gross vehicle weight ratings (12,500 pounds) and gross combined weight ratings (18,500 pounds) capacities. I’ll also note that there are thousands of Ford certified repair centers in the US and Canada, even your weekend mechanic would be familiar with all the inter-workings of the Ford chassis and its components. Throughout our review of the Vegas motorhomes we noticed the exterior styling certainly has a Small European motorhome flair. But luckily the interior is far roomier than most of the European motorhome we've experienced. The Axis and Vegas motorhomes have similar styling where the Vegas caters more towards the younger RVers in our opinion. Thor’s engineers have equipped these small motorhomes with all the right components to pull off enough towing capacity to bring and SUV of nearly the same size with you, 8000 pounds. These small motorhomes still have all the fancy equipment found on the big boys, like an exterior TV, side-view cameras, and large camp-side power awning with LED lighting. All though we didn't have the opportunity to side outside under the awning at night, we have used the same set up and I must say’ the LED light makes a difference. This lights certainly extended the use of the RV at night providing superior illumination over just the common amber porch light of coaches past.
