Unless you are trying to carry something big inside, the 59K floorplan is great. It really doesn't hit you how spacious it feels until you step inside one. I had the experience that every B I saw...

The goal is to travel across the US and Canada 2-3 months at a time. I'm retired and will have an 85 lb dog with me. The Travato is the only Class B for me as I want a shower I can stand in. I want...

I appreciate your replies. I'm not a B or C owner yet, but just trying to figure out what works best. You could parallel park a View with the slide in. You still have more room to move inside than a...

True but how many campsites are you going to be in that you won't be able to extend the slides. Of all the camping sites pictures of seen of class Bs, not one would you not be able to extend the...

Since the widths are about the same (9" difference) then the height (1-2"ft) and the length (3-4') are the difference. In a camping or parking spot height won't make a difference usually so are you...

A 2015 View/Navion can be had for $90K now that the 2016s are out. The Travato 59K will be in the low 70s. So a difference of $20K. So figure $20K for the Sprinter and al the rest of the room thrown...

The Travato is the easiest to drive, but from I read the Trend isn't far behind. I personally like the additional room, but not sure I want to give up the drivability and stealth. I don't like the...

For those that bought the Travato, did any of you consider the Trend? Both appear to have nimble driving characteristics. The biggest differences seem to be space inside the Trend with a dry bath,...

Lichtsinn was very good just coming out of the gate. They were at 74K for a 93K list vehicle. I was surprised at La Mesa as they came back at $79K but expressed a willingness to work on pricing.

I haven't talked to La Mesa about pricing yet as I'm not ready to buy. I was impressed with Lichtsinn initial pricing for the 59K. I like that La Mesa puts some reasonable pricing on their website....
