Gulf Streampage=2page=2 Class A - Diesel reviews

We purchased a brand new Motorhome at an RV show in Utah from Parris RV. It had all the features we were looking for and in our price range. Our first trip out we found multiple problems, most were fixed to our satisfaction. New problem arose after 3rd trip, we cannot go camping using battery power only. The inverter breakers keep tripping with only the 12 volt fridge running nothing else is on. We have to turn the truck engine on to get the slide outs in. Gulf Stream said they would cover the repairs. We had it looked at and it cost us $900.00 now Gulf Stream won't pay it because they think we did something wrong, operator error. They think we had the battery disconnect in the off position which we didn't. So we still have this problem and are unable to use the Motorhome while camping in remote places. The only places we can go are RV campgrounds with full hookups Show less

This unit is easy to drive, find street parking and jump from location to location. There is sufficient storage for our needs and the V* motor has sufficient power for towing. AC unit and heater works well, and TV is easy to operate. Love this thing! Don't wait too long before starting to travel! Show less

We like that fact that it does not have any slide outs it’s a Ford 350 gas which is really nice coming from a diesel with def problems . Haven't had any issues with this coach full time living in it with spouse. Rides real nice no cabinets shacking or loose window noises. In our opinion this model seems to be the best one we’ve owned. We pulled a Grand Design 29Go momentum nothing but problems traded for another toy hauler same issues leaks cabinets falling our truck had a part on recall for def so out of service for 2months we just decided after all the ups and downs why not go simple so as retired truck drivers we decided to have the road experience like we did in our rig but have it all kitchen full bathroom fridge stove all in one easy way to travel on the road again.

I am widowed for 16 years , bought my mh 2012. Love it! Easy to handle, I tow a trailer with amphicar in it. I have painted all interior white and grey. I’m in need of shower door roller brackets. Anyone know of replacements? Knock on wood, not much wrong except just installed new Dometic refrigerator and need new seat covers in front cab. Pleather is falling apart. Thank you Gwen Show less

Excellent experience, easy to set up, remote led exterior light package , new interior, roof, transmission, tires, driveshaft, and brakes. All cushions and mattresses replaced inside, and toilet is also new. Show less

We love this motorhome! The opposing slides make for a huge living space, and the atrium windows allow plenty of light in, so it doesn't feel like a cave as some Class A motorhomes do. The Caterpillar 330HP 3126e turbo diesel runs like a top, and with the Allison MH-3000 transmission has no problems getting us where we need to go. The only complaint I have is the bath is small, but I suppose that is the price to pay for all the open space. Show less

This is an update on a previous review. Camping World / Coldwater Mi. Has completed our repair as of this date it has been in repair since Oct 2022. Due to the slide cracking the fiber glass .They have to find someone to fix that. Gulf Stream will not cover any of the repairs even tho it was due to a cracked weld. This was the second one. Please Please if looking for a motorhome be aware that there is no lemon law and once you purchase they will not care if it is correct or not. Gulf Stream does not seem to have anyone that want to communicate and or look at problems in the repair departments . This is our second motorhome ……first one we had for over 20 years Show less

We love our little woody but the poor quality of the decals and the constant excuses from Gulf Stream has soured us. Highly unlikely that I will buy anything Gulf Stream makes. We just spent another $2200 removing the pealing decals. I have already reinvested $1550 in decals, we are done. Be careful if buy a Gulf Stream check the dates on the tires, our unit a 2019 had 2009 tires. Also I suggest you have the dealer or go to a tire place and upgrade highest grade, the low quality investment on tires is worth the upgrade. I upgraded speakers inside, hvac is loud so needed more than a tv speaker. We have a had a good experience outside what I have said, love the unit. Show less

I have written a review previously, this is additional information. Problem with motorhome: Falling clothes rod Bathroom door not staying shut Trim falling off Linoleum buckled Screws not in correctly under recliners Leaking shower and unstable shower head fixed x 3 Replaced air conditioner Gray/black monitor reversed Weld on bed frame broken took months to get part. Only found due to leaking shower and concerned area might have water damage Now since Oct.2022 weld on slide broke ,now crack in fiberglass. Gulf Steam will not cover the weld. Asked us if we towed a vehicle….yes we do a Jeep wrangler Thank You Gulf Stream for nothing but heart ache and a loss of our money. Show less

I have not owned my BT 5240 long. I have not camped in it, but the floor plan is fantastic considering the size. I have owned 18 - 35’ tow behind travel trailers & my last RV being a gas 38’ class A. I towed my 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited cross country with ease in the Class A. I did a drive with the BT towing same and did not like how the BT handles. Without towing it is a pleasure to drive. I feel the wheel base is too short for towing a vehicle that is about as long as the RV when you add in the length of the tow bar. When entering a curve there is a bit of a delay then it dives in whereupon you have to counter steer. If I find there is something I can do to correct this negative attribute I’ll edit this review. That said, I won’t be towing with the BT until then. Quality is average. While winterizing I found to sharp wood screws securing framing gouging the water tank 😠. Half the screws holding the rear lights were coming out because they were not long enough to bite into the fiberglass shell. Why aren’t tank heaters standard equipment ? Show less
