Here's an update after owning the Class B for half a year. One, the true blue mileage is about 19 mpg at 70 mph. Two, it is not a substitute for the Newell. Three, pull in the little camping spot, fold out the bed, and go to sleep. Four, forget about sleeping with the gen running for AC. The gen is under the bed and loud. Five storage is tight. Six, the sprinters drive great with precise steering, up high seating, and plenty of torque. It handles the WV mountains just fine.

It has been what I needed, a substitute camping vehicle that was suitable for the WV narrow twisty roads and backwoods campsites. It is camping for two. It is a nice tent on wheels with indoor plumbing for the middle of the night trips. It is easy to manuever. I have not regretted the decision.
