Howdy Folks!! -- I am Kevin. My wife is Robin. We start an open-ended tour beginning tomorrow, May 27, for up to a year in our self-built 2017 Sprinter 170, 2500. We are retired and have been full-time RVers for the past 13 years. Love the freedom.
Our careers had us in Austin, TX for 20 years. We visited the SM factory a couple times and became fans. When we decided to add a van to our lives SM was a consideration but we decided to DIY it and never looked back. Love the results which are perfect for us.
Some stats:
2017 Sprinter 2500, 170 wheelbase
Purchased new from Loveland, CO.
Agile RIP suspension
Aluminess front bumper, rear bumper with tire rack and box
1UP-Usa bike rack

6 6v Golf Cart Batteries for house power
2000w Aims inverter/charger
Arctic Tern Windows
500+ Cubic Feet of Fun!!!
