What do you enjoy most about owning a Campervan Class B? But if you had something other than a Class B, what would that be and why?

I liked the Sprinters better over the Transit and ProMaster. As far as ride, and creature comforts in the cab. I find it drives very nice and I've been enjoying my van.

With the i4 diesel 170wb HR, I'm getting about 23 mpg with over 1,000 lbs of tools, mostly in city driving. It's way better than the 14 mpg I used to get with my work truck. However, towing capacity is limited to 5,000 lbs, which feels pretty low.

Dealer repairs are expensive and, in my area, have a lead time of 2 to 3 weeks. In some areas, there may not be any service shops available at all. Plus, newer vans require special diagnostic tools that you can't find at auto parts stores.

It's quite easy to drive both in town and on the highway. It's really spacious - you can fit an impressive amount of stuff in it, and there's a lower chance of people blindly changing lanes into you. It’s also very easy to convert with the best van conversion solutions for sprinter. The diesel engine offers incredible fuel economy, decent acceleration, and can be serviced by mechanics almost anywhere.
