Bought it never used it!
Now 100,000 miles with nothing but regular services.
Regular services are expensive as expected.

Chumley:
We are here!
We love October in Moab and have spent the last 4 years enjoying the hiking, bicycling, and canyoneering. Look for a 2500 EB with NM tags.

Best way to check is to crawl under the van and look at the tank mount gauge. The remote works (or doesn't) off of this sender. I have the same setup plus water heat and it uses very little...

Rick,
That looks to be a hot time in Moab. At that time we should be in North Dakota heading for the UP. We should be back in Moab in October however.

I have 180 watts installed flat rooftop. This is great for "top off" as you are travelling down the road and will easily handle my requirements during the summer in the southwest. However, my...

This is definitely a MB issue. My Sprinter has the same cover (but solidly sealed). I assumed that it was for the OEM backup camera, not used by SMB. See your dealer ASAP.

Living at 6000 feet in New Mexico, whenever it gets cold we head to Roosevelt Lake north of Globe and East of the Phoenix Metro. The sonoran desert is beautiful, the biking and hiking is great and...

Re: My SMB Indiana Sprinter building experience

Hey Dave,

I'm curious, did SMB use any different method of shower pan underlayment this time around? It seems to me that Styrofoam will eventually compress and once again allow the pan to crack.

Re: Moab Oct. 16-19

Hi Rick,
Jackie and I are here. You won't see us on your kind of roads, but we'll be around town. We've been canyoneering, hiking, and road bicycling. Have fun!

Re: Our Sprinter build, Em

OkeyDdokey,
Nice job on getting all of that in a short chassis. Our use of propane for water and space heat coupled with a 75" platform dictated the longer wheelbase.
The only thing that I realized...

Re: Is Sprinter worth the extra cost?

Hi beast3,

Here's my 2 cents:

We love our Sprinter EB. We are currently at 45k miles, going on 200k. My view is that if you are anticipating that kind of long term, you won't even notice the...

Re: extra water tank

I also have a 20 gallon tank. Fresh water is the hardest thing to find in a cross-country trip and the single item that limits your stay in the back country. However, my 2500 is commonly near (or...

Re: Losing a lot of water through overflow while driving?

My $.02: My SMB Sprinter from SMB TX, came with a pex "u-tube" the length of the tank laying on the top of the tank before dropping through the floor. Works great, no loss. You might try that.

Re: Where to take a shower

When in Thermopolis WY, you can't beat the FREE state hot spring pool. A 20 minute soak is free and showers are included. We met those who just use the free shower.
