Class B with Second Row Seating?
Hello! We are looking for a Class B with a second row of captains chairs. So far we have seen (online only) the new Jayco Swift and the Coachmen Galleria. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Any experience with any of these?
Thank you!

Airstream Sprinter Interstate 24 GL is a four seater with a second row of captain chairs.

There is another thread regarding this here. It's from 2019 but still useful if you're looking for both used and new.

I own a 95 Chevy Roadtrek 210 with second row. They are not captains chairs but convert to twin beds. King in back. I will be selling soon

Yes a number of the chevy roadtrek popular and versatile models had 3rd and even 4th fixed seats
to make up, the cabinetry may overhand the rear bed

Midwest Automotive Designs has Sprinter Daycruiser and Passage models with 2 or 3 captains chairs behind the cab. https://midwestautomotivedesigns.com/rv-vans/

Are you asking about current new vans for sale or historically used vans? The two you cited apparently are new. If historical used, the old Roadtrek company probably had the most and being the former leader in Class B numbers the most available if looking there. I don’t recall the other two major companies at the time, Pleasure-way and Leisure Travel Vans having two rear captain chairs going back 15-20 years.

Thank you! That’s a real possibility. It has a smaller fridge than I would like but not a deal breaker.
I also googled Advanced RV. Wow. Those are beautiful. We may go that route if I can’t find exactly what I want.
Thank you for your answer

Thank you for your reply. We are looking at new or slightly used. But your model is in demand and you should have no trouble selling if you decide too. Good luck!

Thank you, we are looking at new or slightly used. We had a PleasureWay Pursuit for 6 years and are looking for something with a little more seating, mostly for day trips with the grandchildren and occasional overnights. We plan to order something like Cabbunks for them.
It will be my daily driver so I need to consider that in my search

Have you considered the Winnebago Solis or Travato 59G? Not captain chairs, but large enough for children and many adults.

Winnebago ERA 70x or 170x. I have the 2015 170x and love it. Seats are removable. Some trips I put more storage shelving there.

Airstream Interstate Grand Lounge edition also has a second row of captain's chairs. I don't feel like it would comfortably sleep more than two people, but it definitely has comfortable daytime travel room for up to four.

Entegra Ethos 20A
We just purchased the above because it was less expensive on the Promaster chassis. We intend on using it primarily for touring not camping. it will work out well for 2 couples who are staying in motels but would like their own facilities and a nice fridge. The TV's are overkill as far as we are concerned. The bed is only useful for one person.
This is the same as the Jayco Swift 20A.

There is a Roadtrek Adventurous RS on ebay and pix show two captain chairs in the second row with full harness seat belts.

Could be the ones that failed the crash test?

The Ethos is presently at the top of my list! Perfect for day trips to the beach with the grand babies, and big enough for just my husband and I to travel. Thank you
