Those 19Gs seem to be quite popular with the European travelers.
This past spring, I had one park next to me for 2 days. A young couple from France were renting it to tour the US. I had not seen one this small up close,so I asked about it. They said that they were use to small RVs like they have in Europe and they could get it almost anywhere.
He said that she slept in the upper bunk while he slept on the folded down dinette, she was about 5'2'' and he said that it was to crowded up top for them both, he was about 5'8''.
I asked about any draw backs and they didn't like the small holding tanks, both about 64 liters,so they had to dump often and it only carried 79 liters of fresh water so they could not stay very long in places that were not full hookup with out having to find a place to dump and refill the fresh water tank.I thought that was pretty big until I did the conversion to Gallons.They did say that the fuel tank was about 30 gallons but that they fueled every day.
The hose that CA gave them would not fit with out leaking so I gave them my spare hose so they could continue their trip without all that leakage.
They were use to the WET Bath so that was not a problem for them,They seemed happy with it but said that next year they would try a larger one with more storage,that thing was packed pretty tight.
