2023 Turismo-ion by Grech RV

April 11, 2023September 5, 2023 / National Indoor RV Centers / Leave a comment

Looking for a top-of-its-class B van? Look no further than Grech RV

When it comes to Class B RVs (a.k.a. Adventure Vans, Camper Vans, B-Vans, etc.), there is certainly no shortage of options. Grech RV, however, has set itself apart from the competition through its dedication to superior craftsmanship, extreme attention to detail and focus on functionality.

2023 Turismo-ion Features

Coming in at 19’ long, the Turismo-ion offers a smaller footprint than Grech’s flagship Strada line, providing greater overall agility while sacrificing none of Grech’s acclaimed luxury. Built on the Mercedes-Benz 2500 Sprinter chassis, it is available in either 2- or 4-wheel drive (4×4 shown in video, below) and boasts a 6-cylinder diesel engine, making it able to tackle any terrain. These foundational features point to the quality of engineering and durability right from the start, setting the stage for unparalleled fit and finish.

Ever-present in Grech RV coaches are attention to detail and exquisite craftsmanship, exemplified in the Turismo through its Black Rhino alloy wheels, power entry step, concealed stainless steel utility center, power awning with wind sensor and custom fiberglass body kit.

Grech RV’s Energy-Efficiency

The Turismo-ion (and all Grech RV models) utilizes the Timberline System, a diesel fuel-fired heating system that provides a continuous flow of hot water and heat to the motorhome. Additionally, the 280 AMP high-output auxiliary alternator and Wakespeed Regulator charge the vehicle’s lithium-ion batteries while at idle, eliminating all worry while boondocking and during extended adventures.

2023 Turismo-ion Interior

The Turismo-ion comfortably sleeps two and can accommodate up to four passengers in its spacious interior, which features an integrated power-management system that allows passengers to easily control lighting and temperature. The 200-watt solar power system offers added power to the LED accent lighting and induction dual-burner stovetop, ensuring you’ve got the capacity to live your life wherever you are and whenever you need it.

For more on Grech RV, take a look at Angie’s tour of the Grevh RV factory! You’ll learn more about their history, exquisite fit and finish, and the meticulous processes that go into every coach they build, including their flagship Strada series. And don’t forget that NIRVC proudly carries Grech RVs! Take a look at our current inventory, HERE.

Its 6-cylinder diesel engine offers ample power and is capable of towing an additional vehicle or toy with its 5,000 lb. hitch. A lithium-ion battery energy storage system provides clean and quiet energy, while the 280-amp alternator charges the batteries at idle, ensuring sustained power for your adventures.

Luxury RV Amenities

Built to Conquer Wear and Tear

Holiday Rambler RVs are built to endure the rigors of everyday travel.

American Coach: Manufacturer Spotlight

December 12, 2022January 25, 2023 / National Indoor RV Centers

The ultimate in RV luxury experiences

One of the most prestigious RV brands available is American Coach. For more than 30 years, American Coach RVs have redefined what luxury means in an RV through their focus on premium materials and next-level craftsmanship. Each of their luxury RVs is built to American Coach’s high standards, utilizing top-of-the-line parts, high-end materials and the latest technology to create a spectacular travel experience that spoils you every single trip.

Luxury RV Amenities

One of the Smoothest – and Safest – Rides on the Road

American Coach has created the preeminent motorhome foundation by partnering with Freightliner® Custom Chassis. The result is an incredibly strong structure that provides an exceptionally smooth ride. And thanks to its unique design, it also boasts some of the largest pass-through storage in RV history. In addition, most models feature the Select Drive premium steering system which provides smart driving assistance, enabling you to conquer bad weather conditions and challenging roads with ease.

A Force to Be Reckoned With

One of the best things about American Coach is that they didn’t let their dedication to true luxury get in the way of creating a true workhorse for the highway. Their 2023 American Eagle boasts a Cummins® ISX15 605 horsepower engine with Allison 4000 SeriesTM six-speed transmission and 20,000 lbs. towing capacity. Not bad for a luxury palace on wheels.

Premium Amenities, Standard

When it comes to onboard luxuries, American Coach doesn’t hold back: full bathrooms with side-by-side sinks, ceramic tile backsplashes, regal quartz countertops, residential-style kitchens with kitchen island prep areas…the list goes on (and it’s all standard). Truly a luxury home away from home.

State-of-the-Art Materials & Construction

Freedom Floor with HWH®

Up until now, it was virtually impossible to eliminate carpet in all areas—especially slideouts. But American Coach has engineered a way to do it, meaning your beautiful porcelain floor can extend the entire length of your RV.

V-Ride Rear Suspension

American Coach uses the first single-axle suspension rated at up to 24,000 pounds, meaning you can carry more gear without sacrificing ease or safety.

Premium Shocks, Brakes, Tires and Wheels

Custom-tuned SACHS shocks dampen the rigors of the road. Bendix disc brakes reduce fade and brake noise, and Michelin tires on aluminum wheels give you reliability and style.

Double-Wishbone Independent Front Suspension

Experience superior handling with this system, which uses dual wishbone-shaped arms to minimize roll and sway while allowing for a 60-degree wheel radius.

Power Generator Slide

Press a button and the lower fiberglass front fascia opens up to reveal the front chassis components and generator for easy maintenance access.

Ultrasteer Tag

Following the ideal turning path of the front suspension, the UltraSteer tag axle gives you precise maneuvering and provides up to a 17% reduction in curb-to-curb turning radius.

American Coach RVs

Though the inventory changes often here at NIRVC, you can typically find these American Coach models in a variety of floor plan options:
