Hello, guys from Paso Robles, California! The folks here at Sky River RV were nice
enough to let Rebecca and I cruise around in this 2016 Mercedes one-ton van...
Which is a Roadtrek 22 foot CS adventurous and...We really, really enjoyed
this van! So what you need to keep in mind, when you're looking at this, is this
van is the normal width of a vehicle! You can park this thing
at pretty much any parking spot you like! So the fact that they are able to
cram so much stuff...And it's very high quality stuff into this small of a
body, it's just mind-blowing!... Let's start on the outside here, and I'm on the
driver's side...And right down here, you have a compartment!... There's your city
water connection...That's propane...That is your gray and black water dump...The grain
black handles...That little round knob, I don't know what that is yet...And that one is your cable TV. Now you do need a little donut to
adapt that to your normal sewer hookups and campsites...But it is nice because
it's a retractable hose...And just down from that is the next little lift up
compartment...You have a spare tire and that's your 30 Amp connection and the
cord is separate!... Exhaust for the heating system, outside shower... 2-inch receiver...
And tow plug...These back doors open up to a great little storage area...And there's
your inverter seatbelts for the back bench seat...Your power cord and we didn't
have a chance to utilize it...But right here there's like a screen mesh that zips
in so you can have the back of the van open!... And there's a backup camera up
there and on the passenger side...You have a 120 outlet power step!
And we have it kind of off right now because we're parked!... Sliding door, third
seat right here...And then moving on to the refrigerator, freezer, microwave and
then...You're kind of not necessarily like a cabover...
But an overhead storage compartment which is very deep!... And then you have the
cab! Mercedes is a quality unit! We were very impressed! We got some amazing fuel
economy and when we went to fill it up... It was an eighth of a tank! It only
took about 20 gallons, not bad at all!...Of diesel, keep that in mind!
All the modern whistles and bells...But up here on the dash, there's tons of storage
which came in really handy! Down there are some USB and an auxiliary jack...We
really liked these things! So RVers commonly use reflectix
to keep ourselves warm and cold...This is a very similar insulation material but
they're pre-fitted! This is to the windshield and these two are fitted to
the doors and they have suction cups!... There's a power awning and the switch is
located right above the passenger seat! So just a couple quick things while I'm
up here in the cab...When you hook the city water up to that connection outside...
It doesn't fill your freshwater holding tank...Unless you flip this little switch
right here...And that will then fill your freshwater holding tank!... And then
speaking of filling your tank here in the passenger door well, that is your
gravity fill for your freshwater holding tank!
Now, speaking of hidden switches, this one has a macerator pump! But I know I'm
going backward a little because I already showed you the grey and black water dump...But
right here below the driver seat is the macerator pump button...So now moving on
to the body of the Motorhome...Next to the fridge would be
the kitchen you have sink right there... Water filtration system, 2 burner propane
stove...The cabinetry is gorgeous in this unit and all things considered...There is
a ton of storage space! Now over here on the left is the bathroom...Now keeping in
mind that this is like a regular width vehicle. It's not as wide as an RV! The
doors do kind of block the entryway here... And here's the bathroom! Very efficient
would be a good word to use for this bathroom...It has everything you need!
Toilet, sink, showerhead...But I think in a unit like this, you need to just be
thankful that it has a toilet, a sink, and a shower! It's crazy how much they've
packed into these things!... Now, just past the bathroom, you have...Your closet and
the closet bar or more storage however you wish to use it! Further on down...A
flat-screen TV, DVD player and these are more cabinets...It's the one directly in
the middle...Also, like the locking cabinets so nothing flies out! Then you just
keep on going...They're huge! There's cabinet space everywhere! Aside
from the ease of getting around in this vehicle, the best part was this bed! It
makes into a king-size bed! It's massive! We had tons of room and it starts when
you hit this switch right here...And then, the bed goes down! There's pieces to fill
in this middle section here...But that is your sleeping space! It's very, very
spacious guys! And all of these blinds are fairly traditional...They go down, day
blinds, night blinds...This unit is equipped with all the hot water
system...And that system generates off of propane, hot water for your...You know...
Sinks and also...Hot water for the heat! This has a radiant in-floor heating here...
And it was the most even, cozy, warm heat that we have ever experienced in an RV!
And I guarantee our next RV is gonna have radiant in-floor heating! Just like...
Once you go that direction, you never want to go back to a forced-air propane
furnace...Continuing our course around this Motorhome here, you have pantry
cabinets and we really are impressed with the amount of pantry cabinet space
here...The drawers are plentiful but I said that already!... And moving on to the
control panels which are just above the slider door here...This is your inverter
and it also shows you when you're hooked up to shore power...These are pretty
self-explanatory water pump patio light... The battery on/off switch...You're very
traditional level gauges...Alright, guys, that's a wrap for our quick tour of the
2016 Road Trek built on the Mercedes diesel van chassis...We really did enjoy
this! The convenience factor was mind blowing considering our background of
Class A towing a trailer in all our travels! Alright, this unit is for sale at Sky
River RV in Paso Robles, California! If you're interested in it, yeah... I can't say
enough about just everything! It's just very high, high quality here! If you're
