Mercedes Sprinter Evo Winnebago touring coachman

- 2015 [ Mercedes] Winnebago ERA 70X diesel Sprinter 124k miles. For a diesel this is just passed the break in period and has a plenty of life left as diesels last forever when properly maintained like this has been. The appeal of a Class B motorhome has always been that, unlike larger motorhomes, it can serve as the family runabout for everyday use in between family vacations. Just imagine being able to take the kids to a soccer game, for example, and have both a full kitchen for snacks and a clean bathroom for them to use whenever they want. A Class B is also a lot less intimidating to drive, handling very much like what it is, a big van. The steering is light and the motorhome corners very easily without excessive lean or sway with its 4 rear wheels: Duly. The turning circle on the Sprinter chassis is also surprisingly tight, so U-turns on larger surface streets do not pose a problem. Well-placed sink, stove and refrigerator make the galley a pleasant space to prepare a meal. Whether or not the ERA can serve your needs depends on who you are and where you live. The ERA is big as Class B’s go, measuring 24 feet long. From our testing around the suburbs of San Diego, that’s about any parking space . It’s also tall, so mall parking garages won’t work. The galley is well equipped with a genuine Corian solid-surface countertop, a two-burner range with glass cover, refrigerator, sink and microwave oven. There is an abundance of well-made cabinetry within reach, and 6 feet 3 inches of headroom, so no ducking is required for all but the tallest users. Shower is part of a wet bath, so space is at a premium. Frankly, it is amazing that a motorhome this small has a bathroom and shower at all, but it does. Located amidships, the wet bath even includes a small stainless steel sink, and a handy three-compartment soap dispenser so you don’t have to worry about stepping on soap or small shampoo bottles. The area is tall enough for all. The three-place bench seat at the rear of the motorhome converts to a bed with the touch of a button, which is convenient. The tabletop stows under the seat and is secured by two straps nicely. Once in place, the bed is surprisingly comfy, but being upholstered in soft durable Ultraleather. The ultra convenient 16,000-Btu heater keeps it pleasantly warm. Equipt with the same leather is the 4 Rotating captain chairs help make the most of the living space. For dining inside or playing family games or holding a business meeting. Also the ERA comes very well equipped with features such as a 22-inch LED HDTV, AM/FM CD/DVD player, MCD American Solo blackout shades, powered roof vent, TrueLevel holding tank monitoring system, exterior service center including an outside shower for surfers or workers and kids or pets and more. Our motorhome was also equipped with some options, including an front storage cabinet A/C heat pump a 2,500-watt Cummins Onan MicroQuiet LP-gas generator ($5,835); patio awning ($1,085); stylized Method aluminum wheels ($5420); and an exterior accessory package for $1,645, which brought the as-tested price to $127,005. That’s a lot of green for a small motorhome, but if you’ve been looking for a family van that you can vacation in, the ERA is one of the best Winnebago Industries has to offer. The cockpit is well equipped with ergonomically placed instrumentation and controls.
