** More about this video **

There are few class b camper vans available anywhere in the world that can seat up to 9 people and still have all the amenities to call them true recreational vehicles The Airstream Interstate Lounge Ext is among them.

The front lounge features 4 captains chairs with armrests, reclining and swiveling seats and 3point seat belts. There's windows all around and a pedestal table can be put in place to allow for dining or playing games. An enormous flat screen tv hangs above the cab to allow rear passengers to watch a little TV on long road trips.

In order to make space for that front lounge, the galley and bathroom are both smaller than on the Grand Tour significantly smaller. The bathroom especially is cramped considering the size and price of this motorhome so buyers better place a premium on touring over bathroom comfort. While smaller, the galley on the Lounge Ext works. There's a small compressor refrigerator under the counter and a pull out drawer microwave. Both take up valuable galley storage. There is a flip up counter extension which helps with counter space. The galley is the same size as on my much shorter 19 foot Ascent but I have more storage because both the microwave and refrigerator are across the aisle.

The rear lounge is open, bright and spacious with a rear sofa and two ottomans which also are seats with lap restraints belts. In total 5 people can sit around the rear lounge with pedestal table. There's a second TV in the rear lounge but it sticks out into the aisleway quite a bit. The rear bed electrically reclines and can be made into one large king sized bed or two twins. The bed isn't the most comfortable due to the seam between the ottomans and the sofa. You'll likely need a topper for the bed to even it out. There's a ton of storage under and behind the sofa. You won't have problems with storing your clubs back there. With that extra length the bed benefits in length. Taller folks will be able to sleep just fine.

The Interstates come loaded with standard features like electronical MCD shades, all the factory installed safety features from the chassis manufacturer, Mercedes like lane keep assist, blind spot detection, multiple airbags in the cab. Plus there are a ton of options available like the air suspension (which you'll need otherwise the ride in the back is terrible), electric stabilizing jacks and an allwheel drive option. You also get roadside assistance.

On te down size Airstream only offers a 3 year coach warranty which is really unfortunate considering this van is priced at $170K and is considered a premium brand. Roadtrek offers a 6 year warranty and PleasureWay 5 and both their competing vans costs tens of thousands less.

If you love the Airstream brand or really want all those available options then you should consider the Airstream Interstate Lounge Ext. It is perfect as a touring coach or for a family of 3 that wants to glamp in style.
