Great to drive, tons of space for adults to sleep and hang out. Great towing and comfort while driving. Second owner. I really enjoyed having the RV. The only reason I am looking for a new RV is we want a Driveable Toy Hauler. Show less

We purchased our 192RBS new after visiting the RV show in Grand Rapids, MI. As empty nesters, we were after a comfortable couple's RV with lower maintenance and ease of use. The electric tongue jack, awning, and slide do most of the 'heavy lifting'. We loved our tiny home away from home. We appreciated having a dedicated bed and bathroom. The complete kitchen set up including a large sink and oven has been great as we cook for ourselves. The headroom is excellent in this relatively modest travel trailer. The bed is a standard 60x80 queen making it simple to purchase bedding. We did not want a microwave, but it was standard so we removed it and built in a custom redwood wine rack and placed a nice 110v lamp for nighttime ambiance. We needed to add a couple of shelves in the cabinets and beef up the support on others than sagged. Overall the fit and finish are good, but not perfect. I think for a trailer of this size and for two to three people the floorplan is hard to beat. I would recommend it to a friend. Show less

The 2017 Coachmen Pursuit 27KB is ours, on consignment with Fife RV. It is in excellent, like new condition. Very low miles. Has an upgraded Serta Perfect Sleeper pillow-top King Bed. Recently invested over $5,000 in upgraded suspension including heavy duty Koni and Bilstein shocks. New side view cameras installed. Our RV is clean, fresh, comfortable and ready to roll. It even gets 10+ miles to the gallon, which we were very pleased with! Good luck and happy camping! Show less

This was our first RV and we truly loved it. It supported my wife and me with our 4 (sometimes 5) kids on many adventures to Yellowstone, Glacier, Black Hills, Big Bend, and more. When we bought the RV our kids were 22, 15, 15, 14, and 13. We thought the bunkhouse layout would work for us and we were starting out on RV vacationing. It was the best decision. The layout really worked for us and the kids, but like everything, there were some drawbacks. Storage for that many people can be a problem, especially on a 3-week trip. To overcome that, we had the kids pack in trunks, with an overnight bag. SO the trunks would be stored under the RV at night and the toiletries and next day clothes went into the overhead cabinet in a basket. This worked great for us on many a trip even as the kids grew older. Last summer we spent 2 weeks in the Black Hills with an 18, 18, 17, and 16 yr old and the same process that had worked for years still worked and the same beds still provided a great night's sleep. I love to cook, especially on these trips. I thought the Convection Microwave/Oven was really helpful for those tasks like baking. I very rarely used the LP oven and it was a little small for a family this big, but I did find that I could split the food and use both when required. Most of our cooking was done outside on a grill I purchased and took with us. We ran the generator while we traveled in order to keep the AC running and let the kids use the TVs for movies and/or gaming. This proved to be very little trouble and never really affected the ~7MPG I would receive on the tank. Unfortunately, this year's Ford does not offer the "Miles to Empty" feature, so I hooked up an ODB-II sensor while we drove and ran it to an app that would keep track of fuel consumption and proved to me that information. During our years with the RV, we towed 2 separate vehicles with us to our adventures. The first 5 years we flat towed a 2013 Ford Flex. The RV had no problems pulling the Ford and we saw maybe an average of 1/2 an MPG hit to the fuel. We experienced no issues while braking and only once did we experience an issue pulling and I am not sure if that was my inexperience or the limitations of the RV. We were in Jackson Hole Wyoming, towing the Flex for the first trip to Yellowstone and we were driving up a very, very steep road. I felt like the RV was struggling so I pulled over, detached the Flex and drove up and over the pass, reconnected on the other side. That was the only time in 6 years that it happened, but I thought I would share. In the last 1.5 years, we have flat towed our 2015 Jeep JKU and there has not been a single problem. We even towed up to Mt Rushmore for a 2-week trip and back. With kids as old as mine, it does get a little cramped in the "living space" on those rainy days where we would sit, play board games or watch TV, but we always got through it and enjoyed the times. We spent the majority of our time outside during the day and enjoyed watching a movie under the stars and around the fire with the outside TV. Although the upgraded AC/Heat pump was great to come in a break the heat of the day and cool down. I was really glad I upgraded to that. The RV was simple to set up and tear down. The Bigfoot auto leveling jacks make it as simple as the touch of a button to extend and level or retract and go. I could, by myself, be level, fully hooked up, and extended in ~15 mins from arrival on site. That was great for those late-night arrivals, especially those late-night arrivals in the rain.

Fuel economy advertised at 15 to 18 mpg. Drove for 4000 miles. Tried speed for long haul was 65 mph. Plenty of power. Fuel capacity requires you to stop every 270 miles. Highly recommend. I love the storage and layout of my prism. I can park about anywhere, For family of 4-6 people, I think this is the right size, I would buy my coachman prism again Show less

Great trailer. well built. comfortable. Tows easy. Realy easy to set up and break down. lots of room inside. nice and useable bathroom. Tall enough for a 6' 6" person to use without rubbing hair on the celieng. Show less

Great first Class A Motorhome for our family of 6! Easy to drive and operate. Many amazing features and extras. Great RV for the price! The bunks and slide outs make it a great RV for travel - especially with kids! Show less

We camp in nature not on a Walmart parking lot! This last trip , we had to drive in a field, slowly but surely, there were a few dips. I turned on the propane and could smell propane. Check the line and it is pinched between the frame and spring, Not designed well or the installation was by a lazy person. Fortunately a friend had some tape and it made it through the week, not have to rip it apart and replace the hose. This was the last problem I had, so far….. I don’t recommend coachman trailers.

Absolutely the worst nightmare I have had with camper ownership. I bought a 245 Apex lite camper because I liked the idea of its tow ability and floor plan. From an axle brace not properly welded to propane lines not hooked up, to slide out problems and awning problems this camper has been nothing short of a nightmare. Had the extended warranty and I’ve landed up paying and paying and paying. Slide out ripped the flooring, they siliconed the loose rivers in. STAY AWAY. Since this I have researched worst campers to buy and coachman is rated number three. And the dealership? A joke! Show less
