Take negative feedback posted on internet with a big grain of salt. People are more likely to post negatives than positives, whether it is complaints about restaurants or RVs.

The RT Etrek is great example of this - complicated components but great bookdocking capability. The engine mounted generator has a lot of fans, but there are still proponents of bolting a propane generator to your van. Sprinter mileage is a consideration for many, especially those of us who believe we will see a significant (doubling or tripling) of fuel prices over the next decade. Density of authorized service centers is also a consideration.
