Looking at the Pleasure-Way Ascent
We are looking closely at the Pleasure-Way Ascent right now, a class B built on the shorter MB chassis. We would appreciate any feedback on this unit, mostly about storage space, maintenance costs ...
Forum Discussion
screen kits, check ebay or google.
we do notice that for our comfort, with the top vent spinning, we do better venting at the rear near the bed...if the front of the van is open it seems all the incoming air comes in teh front and out the vent...less net cooling for us.( and it is above 30ºC here today)
a few forum members have made their own...which is I think my next adventure...at least for the rear on my older B
I have an old screen room type thing which had the frame damaged in a wind storm...I think with some magnets I can adapt this for the rear
daily driver:
I will say that our van weighs about 8000 pounds- although brochures show B's used for everyday...I doubt it, heavy and slow to turn and stop. a bit harder to park. harder on fuel and a km of street use is probably equivalent to 10 km hwy use in terms of wear.
the more bounces, jounces and potholes ( yes, I know Ottawa)...the more wear on the chassis and the harder on the cabinetry.
I would say that if you have another choice, keep the B for tripping.
