Class B Forums an RV LIFE Community forum

So far the closest I’ve seen is the link on here to a 2002. I bought a 1999 and she’s pretty beat up, but has lower miles. I’m working on giving her a 2nd life, but this is all new to me.

I have a new Onan QG2800i mounted under my 2005 Roadtrek 210. It sits a little lower than the Kv 2800 and am thinking about mounting a 1/4" rubber sheet to the front side between the genny and differential to protect the paint from road grime and cover the remote wiring. Good or bad idea?

Due to the spare tire I need an 8” receiver extension with a Rocky Mounts bike rack. First time I used it with my hybrid bikes, there was a lot of side to side, up/down movement. It was a bit disconcerting I am now going to go on a trip with e-bikes and am looking to limit the rack movement Attached is what I have come up with. Any comments or concerns?

Hello, I am considering purchase of a 2004 Pleasure Way EcellTS with a Ford E350 V-10 engine. It is 20 feet in length and has 81,000 miles on it. Will not be towing. Does anyone have experience with expected mpg for this engine in a Class B? We originally thought it had a V-8 but confirmed it was a V-10 and are concerned mpg will be 8-10. Thank you!

I have a 2003 Pleasure Way Excel. Would be interested in knowing if anyone has replaced the rear and side window coverings.

Hi We have an Xplorer van just similar to a roadtrek with the usual small dometic frig. So if we stayed overnight at a rest stop/boon docked, I want to run the frig and lights off our Jackery solar generato.r It is a 1000 Ac output "3x110V 60 HZ 9.09A 1000 W max continuous 2000W surgepeak" It runs my big home frig for hrs . I cannot just plug in the van's frig though right? My original thought was to read by battery lights we have or phones and use the jackery for the frig... Read more

I own a 1997 Roadtrek Popular 190. What I would call a vintage class B. As I get older, it becomes more difficult to maintain my old van and to make the long trips I have always enjoyed in the RT. So I am considering selling the old girl and am wondering what folks think about the market for the old class B's. Personally, I think the market could be robust for these oldies. Back in 2018, I considered upgrading to a new Roadtrek and test drove the new RT on the Dodge Ram Van chassis. It... Read more

Has anyone with a rear Duelly setup changed out their 2 valve stem setup for a single interconnected Crossfire setup ? I’ve had 2 instances where the inner valve extender has failed ( no pressure loss however), and this unit is more like big rig setups and gets rid of the 2 long valve stems altogether.
