Mercedes

When it comes to luxury and class in an automobile, Mercedes is a well trusted manufacturer of vehicles built to go the distance and look and function good doing it. From their coupes and sedans to their SUVs and vans, Mercedes has a reputation for quality. Because of this association, many of the top, Class B, RV “manufacturers” use a Mercedes van as a base.

Airstream

Since their first trailer was built in 1929, Airstream has continuously worked to build quality RVs that stand the test of time. They have gotten such a great reputation for the performance of their RVs that Mercedes has entered into a partnership with them to use the Mercedes-Benz name, logo, and van base to create their line of Class B RVs. Not only are you getting the strength, endurance and luxury of a Mercedes, but you get the additional expert craftsmanship that has kept Airstream going strong for decades when you purchase a Class B RV of their manufacturing.

2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT

The cooperation of two companies known for their quality builds can be seen in the 2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT listed on RVUSA.com by VOGT Family Fun Center in Fort Worth, Texas. The Midnight Black paint job along with the Mercedes logo displayed on the front grill gives the 2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT a sleek look similar to what you would picture a “world leader” being chauffeured around town in. Once you make it inside the 2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT, you can see why the price tag is on the higher end of the Class B category. ‘Executive’ style leather seating and a top to bottom wood-grain finish is just the beginning of the luxury you will experience inside the 2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT. Premium solid counter tops house everything you need to remain comfortable on the road. There are four interior layouts to choose from, all of which have come with a mini fridge, 2-burner stove top, oven, and large sink for the kitchen portion of the interior. In the 2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT you will also find 2 flat-screen HD TVs to add to the already extravagant build.

Warranty

One of the most notable amenities to be included with the 2018 Airstream Interstate Lounge EXT from VOGT Family Fun Center is the ‘Lifetime Warranty’. At no extra cost, VOGT Family Fun Center offers a warranty that lasts as long as you own the RV and covers 100% parts and labor with NO DEDUCTIBLE. Of course, to maintain the validity of the warranty, proof of annual maintenance (an expense that you must cover) from an approved facility is required, but well worth it to save on any potential future complications. Even with the high-quality products both Mercedes and Airstream produce, things can go wrong and it is good to know you will be protected.

The term “RV” or “Recreational Vehicle” is a title that is typically applied to a wide range of vehicles and trailers used to enhance outdoor recreational activities by either providing room for more passengers, hauling ATVs, allowing for a longer stay by carrying more resources and/or simply making “The Great Outdoors” a more comfortable place to spend nights for you and your family/friends. Like every other generalized grouping created by man, even though they belong to the RV “family”, there are certain types and models that stand out from the rest by going the extra mile (no pun intended) to offer amenities that make your stay in the wild more “tame” than others.

A Class Above

For those looking to travel the highways to see what the nation has to offer while maintaining that “at home” feeling no matter the location, you can more often than not look to the “Diesel Pusher” class of RVs for the amenities that mirror what you find in a home the closest. Trailer RV classes can have many, if not all of the same features of a Diesel Pusher, but can offer less access while actually traveling. With all of the possibilities due to advances in technology throughout the years, it can be overwhelming to browse your options when in the market for a new RV.

Motor Home Specialist

As part of our weekly posts, we like to highlight a unit that catches our eye due to the look and/or functionality of the RV as a whole. This week, the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB listed on RVUSA.com by Motor Home Specialist out of Alvarado, Texas stood out from the rest by including a plethora of included amenities at an everyday price well below MSRP with the promise of even more of a discount found when clicking the “GET SALE PRICE” button on the listing. As a ‘Platinum Member’ of RVUSA.com, Motor Home Specialists has made the choice to invest in their customers by listing their best deals on quality RVs on RVUSA.com. Even though they are a ‘Platinum Member’ of RVUSA.com, we would like to assure you that it had no impact on the unit selected to highlight. The dealer that lists the unit is second hand information that is noted after the unit is selected for its look, included amenities and price alone.

2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB Amenities

To begin with, this particular 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB features a custom exterior paintjob that blends orange, white, grey and black in a way that is aesthetically pleasing while maintaining a look of grandeur. As you move inside the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB you find the presence of 4 slide-outs to increase an already ample interior space. Below your feet you will find designer tile flooring similar to what is found in a “high-end” home. The gloss finished wooden cabinets feature ‘solid-surface’ tops that resemble stone tops (like granite) that add a refined look to the overall appearance of the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB. On top of the premium flooring and cabinetry in the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB, this package includes leather seating, stainless steel appliances, 2 LED TVs, a king-sized bed, 2 showers, a stacked washer and dryer, a fire place and a “My RV Coach Control System” that allows for the control of many of the RV’s functions to be executed from a control center or a downloadable app on your smartphone.

Behind the Scenes

Behind the scenes and ‘under the hood’, the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB has a 15K BTU A/C with heat pumps, a 3,000MH transmission and a 10,000 lb towing hitch. All of these amenities are pushed to the destination you desire by a Cummins diesel engine that puts out a formidable 360 horsepower. It is needless to say that the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB was well thought out as it was designed and manufactured, but we’ll say it anyways. The MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price) for the 2018 Coachmen Sportscoach 408DB is $304,291, but Motor Home Specialist offers it at an everyday price of $199,990 with more savings possible by clicking the “GET SALE PRICE” button on the unit listing on RVUSA.com.

For 50 years now, Jayco RVs have been amongst the top rated recreational vehicles in the United States. Synonymous with quality and innovation, Jayco has continuously sought to grow and improve upon their product line. As of 2014 Jayco entered the Class A (gasoline) RV market with the flagship class model line, the Precept. Made for those that value comfort and style, the Precept is the quintessential gas-powered Class A RV, combining a sleek and refined look with quality craftsmanship that can be seen and felt as you enjoy your time away from home on the road.

Under the Hood

The 2017 Jayco Precept 35S is a perfect example of the manufacturing capabilities that Jayco brings to the table. The 6.8-liter Triton V-10 engine that drives the Ford F-350 Super Duty chassis that the 2017 Jayco Precept 35S is built on is well reviewed (by those that have the opportunity to experience it) for its low maintenance requirements and smooth operation while withstanding the test of time. The raw power exerted by the Triton is more than enough to move the 2017 Jayco Precept 35S that features 3 slide-outs and has a GVWR of 22,000 lbs. and tow/hitch weight of 5,000 lbs.

Exterior Styling

Looking to give the 2017 Jayco Precept 35S a distinct and unique appearance, the exterior comes in a variety of colors and designs, such as can be seen in the blue, black, gray and white color scheme used on this particular unit. To top off the exterior styling, the path in front of you is illuminated by individually mounted HID headlights that allow the paintjob and overall design to hold the “spotlight” rather than compete for attention. Hidden behind panel covering the exterior hides more surprises in the form of an LED TV and powered awnings with built in LED lights so you can enjoy the outdoors well into the nighttime hours comfortably.

Interior Styling

The interior of the 2017 Jayco Precept 35S is made to feel like your home away from home no matter how far away you have managed to roam. This particular model features a “French Vanilla” color scheme throughout the interior, using a light brown base with accents of dark brown and white to tie it all together. The ‘Solid-Surface’ counter tops give the 2017 Jayco Precept 35S a look of luxury without seeming overly extravagant. With the wood grain flooring and custom wood cabinets and appliance coverings, you may find yourself more comfortable calling the 2017 Jayco Precept 35S home over your current landlocked habitat.

Additional Info

Listed on RVUSA.com by White Horse RV Center, a ‘Platinum Member’ since 2000, this 2017 Jayco Precept 35S is on sale for $50,000 below MSRP. Since it is a 2017 model, though it is ‘new’, White Horse RV Center has lowered the price to make room for the 2018 models, making this the perfect time to get a great RV at a great price.

When outdoor adventure beckons, Go, with the Sylvan Sport Go Pop Up camping trailer.  Weighing in at a mere 840 pounds, the tiny Go has a big portfolio: It folds opens to sleep a family or provide a cozy camping getaway for a couple; it can carry bikes, kayaks and even motorized vehicles all within its compact frame.  When it’s not having fun, Go can do double duty as a utility trailer.

See the “Best. Camper. Ever.” on RVUSA.  This Sylvan Sport Go is one of eight available at Crain RV in Little Rock, Ark. Find other Sylvan Sport Go units – as well as more traditional pop-up camping trailers from the trusted RV dealers on RVUSA.

The flexible, compact, go-anywhere Sylvan Sport Go has found a fan base in mountain biking crowd who discovered the unique little trailer could carry bikes and gear for a wild weekend while providing attention-grabbing, comfortable sleeping quarters course-side. Today, the Sylvan Sport Go is attracting tent campers ready to get off the ground, but not ready to give up on adventure, action campers and RVers who want to keep it simple, but comfortable.

The North-Carolina built Sylvan Sport Go is an all-in-one, low-profile trailer. In transport mode, it carries gear, bikes, or even an ATV in the multi-height trailer bed. Unloading motorized vehicles is a snap with the included tilt bed.

More bikes, kayaks, skis, or surfboards can be carried on the roof rack, which sits atop the tent shell. Crank the top up, empty out the cargo bed and release the camping tent from storage. The hard side front wall panel and front storage bin contain all you need to make the Sylvan Sport Go your home away from home.

The side walls of the trailer fold out to support the beds. Drop the tent down – it expands with the simplest of rip cord poles – to create an airy, vented, spacious tented area with two benches for sleeping and sitting, and a center table. The 6-ft-5-inch ceiling height and open floor space mean the plenty of room to maneuver. The 220-denier ripstop nylon fabric tent of the Go is three times stronger than a family camping tent, waterproof and seam-sealed.

At bedtime, drop a second table and make a massive king-and-a-half sleeping area using the self-inflating mattresses that are part of the Sylvan Sport Go’s included equipment. A sunshade vestibule protects the entry and an included tent awning expands the Sylvan Sport Go’s living space.

From start to finish the Sylvan Sport Go can be set up in 15 minutes.

Poles, bed supports poles, and the crank are all stored in a molded storage bin in the unit’s front. When camp is set up, use the drainage-equipped bin as an ice bucket to keep drinks cool for the other campers who will want to hear all about the smartest tent camper on the road.  The SylvanSport Go is so efficiently designed, the license plate holder folds down to become the entry step to the camper.

The ultra-light-weight Go and be pulled by almost any vehicle. Load the Go up; it can carry up to 800 lbs. of gear and supplies. Its low profile, aerodynamic design, and custom tuned Dexter torsion axles, make the Go easy to tow – and easy on the gas mileage.  Made of proprietary extruded aluminum with TIG welding then powder coated, the Go is built to last a lifetime.

Visit Crain RV on RVUSA to see why the Sylvan Sport Go has been hailed as the “Swiss Army knife of campers” and was deemed the “Best. Camper. Ever” by National Geographic Adventure.

Even though we have written about a Forest River Rockwood Extreme before, we have been lured back with the 2018 version. Similar in look to the Aliner, the 2018 Forest River Rockwood Extreme has the triangular roof on top of a rectangular base, similar to how you probably drew a house when you were a kid.

Exterior

This particular unit has a white top area sitting on a grey base with black trim. Near the hitch, the Forest River Rockwood Extreme has a patio/storage area that allows you to easily clear up some space inside or to sit outside and enjoy the scenery of your trip while sipping your breakfast drink of choice. The 57in x 84in deck offers more than enough space to comfortable enjoy a morning in the outdoors. Just beyond the “deck” sits ‘Molded LP Bottle Covers’, giving you a great place to store your propane tanks. One of my favorite features about this unit is the built in solar panel that allows you to potentially stay “out” an extra day or two since you can get power without needing more fuel. You will be able to enjoy the views from your campsite through one of the well positioned and appropriately sized windows that were designed into this model. This particular unit comes with access to a 12-foot awning mount that will keep you in shade while you cook dinner on the “hidden” gas grill.

Interior

As you make your way inside of the 2018 Forest River Rockwood Extreme, you will notice a 54in x 80in flip-up bed (6 inches longer than a traditional ‘double’ sized bed) to your left, just past your kitchenette area. For this model, your kitchenette features a three-burner stove just above your ‘mini-fridge’ and next to your sink with storage space below it. Across from the stove area is a ‘nightstand’ structure with a finished counter-top on top of a microwave that sits above a storage drawer. Below your mattress you have additional storage space along with power outlets, a/c vents and a speaker. Having these amenities arranged like they are, allow you to handle a great deal of tasks without needing to leave the comfort of your bed (which is usually a favorite spot after a long day of outdoor activities).

To the right as you enter the Forest River Rockwood Extreme you will find your dining/sitting rest spot. This 4-person booth sits two on each side with a table in the center that matches the rest of the countertops. Each side of the booth has access to a viewing window with standard sunshades to block light when you like. Underneath the booth seats lies more storage space, another speaker and a variety of other accessories.

Other Specs

Fresh water capacity – 21 gallons

Sleeps – 4

Trailer length (with hitch) ~ 19 feet

Base Dry Hitch Weight – 284lbs

Cargo Capacity – 1,100lbs

Height – 61in

Box Size – 12 feet

The 2017 Coachmen Galleria 24TD Diesel Class B is surely a camper that will never let you down! This RV has it all. Listed on RVUSA.com by Auto Corral RV based in Mesa, Arizona, the Galleria’s amenities are guaranteed to help you enjoy your time traveling.

Coachman RV and Mercedes have come together with years of experience to bring the Galleria, a Class B Motorhome that gives a combination of luxury but value. It runs on a Mercedes 3.0L Turbo V6 diesel engine, which allows for more power, but lowers emissions levels and is just as efficient as a regular engine. It also has a 5-Speed Automatic Transmission (you’re in luck if you haven’t learned to drive a stick shift yet). The power of the engine can tow 5,000 pounds and has a GVWR of 11,030 pounds. Each of the three different floor plans comes with the option of a Li3 Lithium Battery that operates the air conditioning unit for eight hours before it needs a charge.

The simplicity yet sophistication of the Galleria are what some may look for in an RV. The leather seats add a timeless touch to the interior, while the classic silver exterior complements the ageless theme. The cool thing about this RV is that it’s simple on the outside, but it gets an upgrade once you realize what’s on the inside. You may notice the custom built high gloss wood cabinets, embroidered front seat covers and mid chairs, a memory foam power sofa, and of course, several USB ports in the living area. Talk about luxury.

The price of this baby is $94,999, but with all the amenities we just discussed, I’d consider that a steal!
