Seller's Description

The 2023 Thor Rize 18M: Your Compact Gateway to Big Adventures There’s a certain magic in stepping into a space that feels both familiar and full of possibility — and that’s exactly the feeling you get with the 2023 Thor Motor Coach Rize 18M. It’s a small, nimble Class B motorhome, but it packs an impressive punch when it comes to comfort, features, and adventure-ready spirit. Whether you’re planning weekend escapes to the mountains, coastal road trips, or long hauls across America’s open roads, the Rize 18M promises a smooth drive, an easy setup, and the kind of cozy living space that makes every stop feel like home. Built for the Road The Rize 18M rides on the dependable RAM ProMaster 1500XT chassis and is powered by a 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine, delivering about 280 horsepower through a smooth 9-speed automatic transmission. That means it’s not just easy to drive — it’s genuinely fun, even for those who have never handled an RV before. Its compact size (just under 18 feet long) means you can slide into regular parking spots, navigate winding city streets, and explore tight scenic routes that larger motorhomes simply can’t access. Despite its small footprint, the Rize doesn’t skimp on capability. With a towing capacity of up to 3,500 lbs, you can bring along a small trailer, bikes, or even a kayak setup for the ultimate adventure package. Compact Yet Surprisingly Spacious Step inside, and you’ll find a space that’s been smartly designed to maximize every inch. The living area features swivel captain’s chairs, so the driver and passenger seats easily become part of your lounge area. The main seating converts into a pull-out sofa bed (about 72″ x 47″) — big enough for two to sleep comfortably after a day of exploration. One of the biggest stand-out features is the rear wet bath. Instead of cramping the bathroom into a corner, Thor placed it across the back wall, giving you a shower, cassette toilet, and fold-down sink with more elbow room than you’d expect. Pocket doors help keep the layout open while still giving you privacy when needed. A Kitchen That Travels With You The Rize 18M makes on-the-road cooking simple and enjoyable. You’ll find a two-burner gas cooktop for whipping up hot meals, a microwave oven for quick reheats, a 12V electric refrigerator to keep food fresh, and a stainless steel sink with a high-rise faucet. The counter space is compact, but it’s well-designed, with storage cabinets that make it easy to keep cooking essentials organized. This setup is perfect for everything from your morning coffee ritual to a fresh, hot dinner after a long hike. And if you prefer dining under the stars, simply open up the rear doors or side sliding door, and your kitchen instantly connects to the outdoors. Off-Grid Freedom One of the most appealing aspects of the Rize 18M is its self-sufficiency. It comes standard with a 190-200W solar panel and controller, dual house batteries, and a 1000W inverter. That means you can stay powered up for lights, devices, and small appliances even when you’re far from a campground hookup. When you do need extra power, the onboard Onan RV QG 2800 gas generator is there to keep you running. Fresh, grey, and black water tanks (18 gal, 20 gal, and 4.75 gal respectively) let you stay out longer without rushing back to civilization. And thanks to the Truma Combi Eco heating and water system, you’ll have warm showers and a comfortable interior even in cooler weather. Creature Comforts The Rize 18M doesn’t forget the small details that make a space feel livable. LED lighting keeps things bright without draining power, while euro-style cabinetry and vinyl flooring add a clean, modern look. Privacy shades and insect screens let you adjust the light and keep out unwanted guests (the flying kind). Entertainment and connectivity are handled by a touchscreen dash with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a backup camera for stress-free parking, a Wi-Fi/4G antenna, and multiple USB charging ports. Whether you want to stream music while you cook, video chat with friends from a scenic overlook, or watch a show on a rainy night, the Rize is ready. Easy to Drive, Easy to Love For many people, the idea of driving an RV is intimidating — but the Rize changes that. At just under 18 feet long and under 10 feet tall, it feels more like driving a van than a motorhome. The ProMaster chassis gives it a tight turning radius, and the responsive handling means you won’t be white-knuckling it down the highway. And when it comes time to park, the compact size means you can slip into standard spots, whether that’s at a national park visitor center, a grocery store, or a downtown street. No worrying about finding “RV-only” parking — the Rize blends right in. For Every Kind of Trip Weekend Warriors will love the quick setup, nimble handling, and ability to get into remote campsites. Long-Haul Travelers will appreciate the fuel efficiency, comfortable sleeping arrangements, and off-grid capability. Couples & Solo Adventurers will find it’s just the right size — not too big, not too small, but perfectly suited for two.
