We live in AK and have driven a 2001 VW Eurovan Camper (pop top) for 9 years and after a 13K mile road trip in the lower 48 in the winter of 2008 we decided we'd like something with a potty and a shower. After considering pickup campers and trailers we decided we like the various models built on the Sprinter chassis and have looked at RoadTrek, Itasca and Winnebago and have explored online the offerings from Sportsmobile and Airstream. As you might guess from us owning a VW, we tend toward the minimalist end of the spectrum for a road rig. We even looked at a screaming deal on a new 2008 Navion IQ and though is was a great vehicle at an incredible price, decided it was too big for our tastes. There are a limited number of dealers here in AK so now the questing comes down to determining which manufacturer(s) offer high quality engineering and build quality and the options we want. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Feedback from anyone with RoadTrek, Airstream or Sportsmobile experience would be of particular interest.
Thanks,
