Thinking of downsizing from DP to View
Looking for advice, considering downsizing from our HR Ambassador 40dst to a View style class C. There seems to be a broad price range even on the same chassis. Any feedback on MFGs to stay away from...

The $22k I stated is the price hike of a Sprinter "option" for a rig normally built on the E350/E450.ron.dittmer wrote:They are still building on the 2018, I know I just ordered a 2020. Oh and btw, it will be a 10 to 13k increase.
Bobfinch,
You didn't mention how many people & pets your new rig is supposed to accommodate, nor long long your trips would average and your travel style (national parks or RV parks). That would help us provide a smarter response.
One WARNING about the new 2019 Sprinter. It has a major price increase compared to 2018. Mercedes added piles of technology and a decent amount of extra weight-handling capability (GVWR is 12,125 pounds now) but it comes at roughly a $22,000 price increase. So be prepared for "Sticker Shock".
One real good thing about the new 2019 Sprinter 4500 with a GVWR of 12,125, is the significant increase over the still available 3500XD with 11,030 pounds. If buying a 2019 Sprinter version, that would be my very first question to the RV sales people. Is your motor home built on the 2019 3500XD Sprinter chassis, or the 2019 4500 Sprinter chassis?
