We have a Roadtrek CS Adventurous without the third seat by the door for the two of us. Can haul 4 if the bed is cranked back as a couch, but we generally leave it as twin beds. With all the storage and bath, it does feel a little closed in, but open the doors, side and back (with screens) it seems wide open. Ours is on a Sprinter chassis, bells and whistles included. It is just a little over a year old with 20,000 miles on it. We have to justify our spending our kids inheritance! Resale value as others have said is higher on the Sprinter and workmanship tends to be better and with better materials.
It has the engine mounted generator which has performed much better than what we used to have to do with the Onan in our former class C plus no or little maintenance. Boondocking is no problem, with our 4 AGM batteries we can even run the AC for 4 or 5 hours until recharging which only takes an hour or two at an engine idle. Idling only burns about a third of a gallon an hour. Don't have the solar, but have been considering adding. A little hard to justify at today's diesel prices.
I had it in to the dealer today to get the inverter replaced as it died on the way home from Alaska. The 5 year warranty does pay off.
Of course, there always a few little problems or things breaking, but usually can easily be fixed. Cabinet latches seem to be an ongoing problem, but are very easy to replace. The factory is generous in supplying extras. For just one person would suggest getting one of the models on a 3/4 ton chassis, ie. without duals. You would have factory supplied tire monitors. It pays to keep tire pressures up and monitors are a great aid in doing that.
As others have said, though, each of us have specific wants or needs or even biases, so that is why we have so many different makes and models to choose from. Good luck!
