When I drove one, it was very sluggish left in auto mode. The shift from 1st to 2nd was really slow. If you manually shifted it, it seemed as quick to me as the gas van. I thought it had more...

I think it would be tough to make back the $6k upcharge for the deisel option. With no extra towing capability and lesser useable payload, it's a tough justification. Add to that the inconvenience...

LOL. I was going to call you out on that.

Price paid for an RV and MPG are the #3 and #2 things men most often lie about. ;)

I'm very aware of how the tax work as I've probably bought 2 dozen vehicles out of state over the years. All is fine and dandy if the proper paperwork is filed in a timely fashion. If somebody...

What, can't wait to have exposed screw holes and skinned up paint on your brand new van?

You're just beginning for trouble if you give them the sales tax money for your state. They can do an...

Bear in mind that you take a 500 lb hit on payload if you go with the diesel, coupled with the already mentioned lp generator and puny lp tank.

You don't get any additional towing capacity either....

Not that I've heard of. Haven't checked with dead guys though - but I suspect they aren't as good at negotiating.

Re: New to Forum - I bought a Travato!

Sounds like you've thought it through pretty well. There are always compromises to be made and no RV is perfect. You just research the best you can and get the best fit of what is available.

I think you should carefully consider your travelling style before committing to a B. If you are going to just park in commercial campgrounds or state parks, a more traditional style RV may suit you...

Re: New to Forum - I bought a Travato!

I think, as a single traveler, you would love a Travato. My 2015 was built in March 2014, so it was labeled a '15, but didn't have all the new features, or color schemes. The chassis is a '14. I...

That's a crazy Sprinter! Not sure I'm up for a lift kit at this point though.

I do like the bumper and the light kit - I can see how those would be nice additions.

I'm very excited to pic up...

New to Forum - I bought a Travato!

Hello,

I've been lurking for awhile to read up on the Travato. Despite the...
