Grand Design's new Lineage motorized RV

Great thanks for the updates! Based on that I was able to find a follow-up video from Matt's RV at the Hershey show. He only did a quick walk through in a Lineage at the end of this video:

The theater seating is included on one and you get to see a paint color scheme vs straight decals.

Anybody know how well the Lineage plumbing is laid out in terms of freeze protection? (Fully understanding that the '4 seasons' reference often slapped on RVs is always a bit of a stretch!) Is the belly closed and given any heat source? Thanks!

All of the water lines are above the floor, hidden behind cabinets, panels etc. The drain lines do go underneath to the holding tanks. The tanks are exposed, there is no coroplast as this is a vehicle. There are tank heaters.

Welcome to the Lineage section!
We hope your new Lineage treats you as well as your old Solitude had.

So, I got to walk through the Lineage last week at the Hershey RV Show.

Previously looking the bathroom floorplan, that just did not seem practical. But looking at in person, it seems to work.

The mattress folds up to fit with the slide in. The mattress "moves" on top of the platform with the slide in....the platform stays stationary. The bed would not be usable with the slide in for a quick rest area nap.

The deep pantry has sliding shelves.....wish my Imagine had that, and probably will in the future.

Overall, I liked the camper. It has a nice "feel" to it, but again I did not get to see it with the slide in to see how it feels in the drive mode.

You can test drive one, sort of. Our salesman arranged for us to drive a MB 4500 Sprinter Thor model. 25'8", same as the Lineage. It was very easy to drive, DW compared it to driving a mini van. I wouldn't go that far, but it handled very easily. Now that we own ours, and have about 700 miles on it, city and highway, that perception has not changed. Even when towing my Maverick the ride is smooth, effortless.
