2021 Coachmen Sportscoach 403QS

Hello my name is Joe Mullen and today I'm going to show you the 403QS, an all-new floor plan for sports coach diesel pushers by Coachman RV. As with all models for sports coach, whether it is our straight rail series or our raised rail series, they're all going to have the one-piece gel coat front cap, one-piece gel coat rear cap. What's nice about our models, every floor plan will have the slide-out generator tray. On the raised rail series, one thing different from the straight rail series was we do use the 8,000 kilowatt diesel generator in it, 6,000 in the straight rail. Everything's going to have the 50 amp service, everything's going to have the 2,000 watt sine wave inverter that'll pretty much power up the entire coach, except the roof air conditioners of course. It will do the GFI circuits, your televisions, and appliances as well. Another unique feature about the raised rail diesel pushers by sports coach is we do have the big 17 inch chrome bus mirrors on here. We do have the 20 degrees sight right dash, which is slope for better viewing up front. What's unique about that is while you're sitting at the driver's seat, it's about 15 feet before you see pavement. So when you're sitting up there, you're looking down, you see everything around you. Now if you can imagine that dash being flatter, of course that's going to shoot that angle out about 30 feet. So you do have a much safer viewing area with this coach. Also with the 17 inch bus mirrors, it does give you pretty much 100% unobstructed view down the side of the coach. And we also mount our side cameras lower. The importance to that is these cameras have 120 degree angles, so it's seeing right down here by your step. So it's virtually basically eliminating in any blind spot on this coach. Our sports coach diesels are designed and engineered for strength and longevity in our own chassis plant. Base structural integrity is our highest priority with our saddlebag truss design and our one-piece steel plates that run down the entire length of the coach. It's going to give a superior foundational strength. Typically there's going to be 10 to 11 trusses built across the chassis that run from front to rear. And on each truss before we set the main floor on the coach, we will also put a layer of neoprene gasket on top of the frame before we set the floor on it because potentially it's going to eliminate any harmonic vibration that could potentially be built into any coach of this length. Each sports coach comes with on the Raise Rail series, we do have the lighted exterior grab handle. Then we also have one in the interior, which we'll see once we're inside the coach. But it also comes with the 22 and a half inch aluminum rims standard equipment on here. It does have the 100 gallon fuel tank. We do have a front power awning for the entry door. Also have the power awning for the main awning as well. With the carefree awnings that we use, we also actually have speakers incorporated into the awning arm itself. So right inside this step well there's a 500 amp amplifier or 500 watt amplifier that you can bluetooth music from your iPhone smartphone to these speakers or with the outside tv with the 40 inch outside tv you can also run the sound from the tv through these speakers. First compartment on the passenger side, we do have an auxiliary air hose hookup. Each coach comes with the auxiliary air hose that you can hook up either on the passenger side or the driver's side so you can maintain your own tire pressures while you're out driving around. In the first or second compartment of the raised rail series, we do have the optional slide out storage tray. This is by MORryde. It has an 800 pound weight limit on it and it also slides out the other side of the coach. One of the other things I like talking about are compartment doors. They are one inch doors. They are insulated. There's a styrofoam insulation inside. We also use the inch and a half bulb seal automotive bulb seal on the outside. You call them slam latches but on these you actually have to press extra hard but the great thing about that is you do feel a nice tight seal every time. Up underneath we do have being a raised rail chassis you do get the big slide or the big storage area underneath like you'd see like on a greyhound bus so that's important. Also underneath this little little thing that we do different than a lot of manufacturers this is typically right in front of your rear axle is where you put your holding tanks. Typically it's dead space so you'll have a false panel there but one thing that we do whenever we have dead space in a coach we will put a door on it or we'll put a drawer in it so with this little extra area here and you'll have the same on the driver's side we add one more storage area because we know how important that is for customers. As far as structure at Coachman we do a lot of things that basically double up what a lot of manufacturers do. We do have the steel floor construction. We have two layers of quarter inch of luan stacked on top of each other then we have the galvanized metal on the bottom side. We do not use rolled plastic underneath that's important because we do want to keep these rodent proof. We do use a two pound bead foam insulation in our floors and our sidewalls. Sidewall and roof construction they are aluminum framed. What's nice about our sidewall construction this is where we double up a little bit different than other manufacturers. We do have the Azdel noble slug gel coat. Of course with our paint everybody knows the Azdel is going to give you half the weight of wood three times the insulation factor than wood is. We also use that same layer of Azdel in our roofs so you've got not only extra insulation on the side but you have it on top. Two pound bead foam insulation here three pound bead foam in the ceiling or in the roof. The roof construction is six layers it's crowned five inches in the middle and it'll taper off to about two two and a half inches on the end. The thing that we doubled up on most there's a couple other manufacturers that'll use noble slug gel coat with the Azdel but one will either just vacuum bag the sidewalls or one will pinch roll it. At Coachman what we do we do both floors ceiling roof we do pinch roll we do vacuum bond it is a urethane based adhesive it's water activated. These walls are not coming apart we do a pull test on window cutouts on these just like any manufacturer you can pound on these sidewalls they are solid inside and out. We also have EGS backer strips inside the sidewalls so when you fasten your interior cabinets it's hitting hitting some meat there they're not going to fall off or pull away from the wall. All of our painting is in-house with custom selected Sikkens brand clear coat paints, paint colors, clear coat, hardeners, and reducers. Great detail goes into every paint scheme and design. Of side note each color is four to six layers of paint and then it's sanded to feather the multi layers of paint out from so you don't get any unevenness. Our clear coat is a two-step process that consists of four sprays of Sikkens clear then we bake it at 160 degrees in one of our booths and that's going to be in there for about an hour and a half. The clear coat process is then repeated and hand buffed for final. There are approximately approximately about 160 man hours in each coach and 28 gallons of paint and clear coat goes on every unit. As we get to the rear of the coach the first compartment behind the rear tires we do have the 13 gallon def tank diesel exhaust fluid for the new emissions then there's a yellow cap back in here we have an LP quick connect comes with each coach. Here's the 2000 watt inverter I was talking about again pure sine wave pretty much going to power up everything. It also includes powering up the CPAP station or what what we would like to refer to as a coach PAP station that's above every bed in the center cabinet. So we've got that going on right here. We also have solar hookups on the side of the coach. We can do a 100 watt solar panel on the roof as well but it comes standard with the plug and go right here on the side for 10 amp. One of the new changes for the 2020 model year is we went to one colored dash. Last year we had three different colors just really cleaned up the look to it and of course with the new 2020 Freightliner chassis you get the new digital dash with this as well. We still have the 10 inch Xera radio backup camera. We also have a you saw it on the front of the cap earlier you saw the sports coach badge lit up that's all controlled from the front. We do have a power step cover at the front of the coach in front of the passenger seat. Inside the 403 QS a couple very unique features. One of the first things that you'll notice when you walk into the coach is the theater seating. Now what comes standard with the just manual theater seats but I like the new power seat option because it's actually heated has a built-in massager and of course you can run the footrest out get relaxed to view the 50 inch tv across from you. There's also a led light that you can see shine up underneath the bottom side and inside the cupholders itself. So that's all new for 2020. Also popular in the 403 QS. First off we are in the coast interior this is a Sumatra wood beautiful colors. We do have the tri-fold sleeper sofa bed. Basically one of the most popular questions I get when you get opposing slides up front is how much room do I have to get down through the middle of the coach when the room's in. Just doing a visual of the tile here you're basically going to have a tile and a half so you have about 15 inches of egress coming through. Another popular item with this coach is this booth is huge. This is an 82 inch booth. I'm six foot four I can sleep there. It is the dream dinette so the tabletop will drop down. Getting back to the flooring here something unique about our floor construction. We do use Emser brand porcelain tile floor. It is a free floating floor system so what that means is the tiles are individually glued into plastic trays that are laid out first. They snap together so you're going to have nice straight grout lines throughout the entire coach. But the important part is we do glue around the perimeter of the coach only when we put the plastic tile down. Then we glue the tile into the trays so the middle of coach is actually free floating so that absorbs twisting and flexing in the coach. Does a great job minimizing any tile crackage as you're driving up and down the highway. In the kitchen area obviously you have a huge kitchen counter. This is about a 90 inch kitchen countertop. Does have the pop-up chargers and LED chargers. 110 outlets and GFI protected which means they'll be on the inverter circuit. We are still using the farm sink. The one piece stainless steel farm sink. Popular feature. And then in our raised rail models we also use the induction cooktop. It is electric. Basically you have to have the magnetic pans. We do use a convection microwave. That comes standard in every coach. And what I also like is we also have the soft close roller bearing drawer guides. Inside the center part of the coach we do have all of our control panels here. We do have a tank heater. A lot of our models we use forced air heat to heat the holding tanks. But with this particular model we did have to put in a heat pad. We also have the auto gen start controls right here. You can set that up off of time voltage or temperature. Inverter control and then we have all of our tank levels slide control buttons are located right here. We do have a tv antenna power boost here. There's no more crank up tv antenna and this also plays into effect with your dash radio. It serves as a radio antenna as well so when you're driving down the road you'll get great reception. Does come with two 15,000 watt BTU or 15,000 BTU roof air conditioners with heat pumps. And then all of our light switches fan switches are all labeled throughout the entire coach. And in the 403QS this is a floor plan that actually includes a 5,000 BTU fireplace. New for 2020 model year we do use the 18 cubic foot refrigerators now which allows us to have the extra pantry added to each coach as well. What's really amazing about this floor plan is even as nice as the front end of the coach is, and I mean this is nice, the back half of the coach is really impressive. This is where you get a true bedroom suite and bathroom suite. As you walk into the bathroom the first thing you're going to see are the two double bowl sinks which really open up this whole bathroom area. And then you can actually walk all the way through back to the bedroom area as well. We also went to the one piece fiberglass shower this year. It's real nice has the seat built into it. Of course you've got the like I said the double lav sink here. Obviously nice for couples getting ready. His and hers, hers and his, whatever. Works out real well. The modern lighting has really dressed this coach up a little bit. But then as you leave the bathroom area, walk back towards the bedroom area, you're going to see the true bedroom suite in this coach. And that's what to me makes this coach really special. Every sports coach floor plan does come standard with the king bed which is a great feature. Underneath bed storage is huge. It's all clean. There's no electrical wires down there and no slide out mechanisms. Just gives you extra storage that a lot of coaches, a lot of competition they do not offer. On both sides of the bed we do have a 110 outlet at the base on each side and then at the little nightstand on each side we have a double USB port so you can charge your cell phones at night. The center cabinet up here is what we call the coach pap station. Nice place to put your CPAP station. It does have a hatch down here. Run cords through there. If you have speaker or radio you want to run headphones down through there. That works out well. There is an on off light and there's a 110 outlet up here as well. In the rear of the coach we have the bifold door here. Have a built-in storage or clothes hamper or just use it for extra storage. There's a closet rod up there. Then the most popular item is having the side-by-side washer dryer come standard with each model as well. Plenty of storage drawers underneath here. Cabinets are lighted. More hanging closed space here. Hanging closed space here. Hanging closed space here. One of the biggest misconceptions about this coach is your first thought is you open this up you only see one closet rod. That's because we have the side-by-side washer dryer. What you don't realize closet rod, closet rod, closet rod. One here comes up to about 72 inches of clothes rod so that all in together makes pretty big storage space for your hanging clothes. Then one last thing with flat screen TVs of course you're going to get the backside storage. Everything is pre-wired for satellite. It is pre-wired to the roof. Use Jensen TVs throughout. It's the only brand designed for the mobile market. A lot of people don't realize that. Hope you enjoyed the quick walk through there of the inside of the coach.

Before you consider the purchase of a new sports coach or any other new motorhome for that matter there is one more thing you need to know and if you're buying a new motorhome this is without a doubt the most important information you'll hear in this video when it comes to ensuring that you and your family get a fair deal regardless of where you purchase your next motorhome. When buying a new motorhome be sure to check the MSRP or the manufacturer suggested retail price. Unfortunately other dealers prefer playing numbers games and price their new units at the full manufacturer suggested retail price. Then they discount the MSRP a meager 10 to 15 percent or less and many unsuspecting RV buyers end up paying too much for their new motorhome. They also use the heavily inflated price of the MSRP to over allow on trade-ins and trick other RV owners into thinking that they are getting more for their trade-in than they really are. Some dealers even alter the manufacturer's window stickers to reflect a higher price or remove the window sticker altogether and create their own version of retail pricing even though this is against United States federal law. Without knowing the true manufacturer suggested price you cannot be sure of the true percentage discount you are receiving from the dealership. Always demand a copy of the MSRP and only do business with dealers who prominently display not only the MSRP but an upfront percentage discounted sale price without having to ask for it. If you have any doubt about the MSRP call the manufacturer. If you have any doubt about your sale price call Motorhome Specialist.
