“Discover the Crucial Facts You Need to Know Before You Buy a Sprinter RV.”
Dear Fun Seeker,
If you’re like me, you enjoy RVing because of the freedom it gives you. You can go anywhere, stay there in comfort, and not have to worry about the cost or hassle of finding a hotel room. And who needs a hotel room when you can open your front door and be outside in a beautiful place?
But lately RVing has gotten less convenient, and a whole lot more costly. The price of fuel is around US$4 a gallon, and that can eat a hole in your wallet as big as the Grand Canyon.
Driving a Big RV Could Be Eating Up All The Money You Thought You Were Saving
If you are driving a big diesel motorhome and your fuel economy is only 8-14 miles per gallon, you’re burning a lot of fuel (and a lot of hard-earned dollars!) just to get to your destination, and you’ll have precious little to spend when you get to where you’re going.
Besides, a big RV may have all the comforts of home, but it probably handles as well as putting your home on top of a dinghy and trying to sail it across some rough seas. Many large RVs are just so heavy, they bounce and wallow their way over every bump in the highway, and you emerge looking like you haven’t slept in days after a few hours of white-knuckle driving in high winds or over average state highways.
Do you want a smaller RV that gets great mileage and handles well? One that’s not so small you can’t fit what you need to be comfortable, but one that gets great gas mileage and power, and is easily maneuvered into small campsites and on back roads?
The Solution: A Mercedes Sprinter RV
The best answer to the problem of the giant motorhome is a Mercedes Sprinter-based RV. A Mercedes Sprinter RV can get 16-20 mpg, has great power on the highway and even at high altitudes, thanks to the very flat power curve of its 3.0-liter V6 turbodiesel engine, and it’s compact enough to take you onto wilderness roads and camping spots other RVs can’t go. All this, plus the creature comforts of its bigger RV cousins!
If you’ve looked around at RVs, you’ll realize that something like 90% of the class B RVs sold in North America today are on the Sprinter chassis, so there’s lots to choose from. And they’re not cheap either! So it’s really important for you to find out which Sprinter RVs really suit your needs the best – not just because you need to sleep 2 or 4 people, but because you want lots of light, lots of storage space, or perhaps the sleekest designs that are compact, but still offer some luxury.
So which is the best-built Sprinter RV, you ask? The 2012 RoadTrek Agile, Ideal or Adventurous? Maybe the Pleasure-Way Plateau, Airstream Interstate, or Winnebago View? Or perhaps Fleetwood’s Class C Sprinters like the Jamboree Sport DSL or Tioga DSL, or the Coachmen Prism? So many choices! Wouldn’t you like to know what all these models are REALLY like, rather than just what the salesman tells you?
There are some RV buyer’s guides out there that include Sprinter-based RV models. But typically, the “details” are hardly useful – you can find one black-and-white exterior photo, maybe an additional photo of the inside, but very few detailed specifications, and no idea of the whole range of RV floor plans that might be offered by the manufacturer. And perhaps the biggest problem – these buyer’s guides leave out any information from REAL buyers, people who’ve owned and driven their own Sprinter RVs. Wouldn’t you rather find out the truth about whether an RV is built well from someone who’s traveled thousands of miles in it, and can tell you in detail about its advantages and drawbacks?
The 2012 Sprinter RV Buyer’s Guide – Where You Can Find Out the Secrets Dealers Won’t Tell You
I created the Sprinter RV Buyer’s Guide because there wasn’t an RV buyer’s guide that really gave you everything you need to know when considering a large purchase like a Sprinter RV. My goal was to give Mercedes Sprinter RV buyers the “low-down” on all the popular North American 2012 Sprinter RV models: not just what the salesmen and dealerships want you to hear, but the real-world experiences of Sprinter RV owners, and all their opinions on reliability, mileage, build quality, etc. of various Sprinter RVs. Want to know what Winnebago did wrong with the Era, and has just now fixed? Want the scoop on a major problem that a number of Forest River Solera owners have had? Those are both described, along with many more gems you’d need to be a Sprinter RV owner to know…
I’ve organized this guide so you can make an “apples to apples” comparison of all the class B and class C Sprinter RVs available: I’ve standardized the photo layouts and the specifications so you can compare easily. I have put extra care into double-checking the specs against the latest details from the manufacturers, and even included key details that some may not want you to know about, like all the relevant NHTSA recalls for each model of Sprinter motorhome.
The best place to look for answers on all the 2012 Sprinter RVs – the 2012 Sprinter RV Buyer’s Guide. This 138-page e-book has up-to-the-minute answers to every question you’re thinking of, including details on:
- All the best 2012 models of North American Class B and Class C Sprinter RVs, including full-color exterior and interior photos, specifications, and 2012 available floor plans
- Updated, accurate specifications (not like some RV buyer’s guides!)
- Real-world comments from real Sprinter RV owners on what are the best and worst features of their Sprinter RVs
- All NHTSA recalls/common consumer issues with each model of Sprinter RV conversion
- Brief company histories, to let you know about each manufacturer’s experience and financial situation, a major concern when you’re thinking about warranty support down the road!
