Hi everybody, my name is Matt Elliott.
I'm with Guaranty RV Centers, here is Junction City OR.
Today I want you to take a look at an awesome new Roadtrek CS Adventurous.
This is a really special rig because it's got a ton of amazing new technologies.
And it's also got the extra long chassis which we'll see when we go inside.
Follow Me.
One of the cool things about a Roadtrek they've got is power step.
Class B motorhomes don't usually have this but it's great.
Just walk right in.
Now you might ask yourself why people like these sprinter chassis, one of the reasons
is they have a nice high roof line so tall people can get in without ducking down low
to get under that roof line.
It makes it really easy to get in.
So let's talk about the CS.
The CS Adventurous is just absolutely dripping with technologies.
Roadtrek has been in the development phase of a whole bunch of new stuff that is just
awesome.
This one here has an Alde heating system.
It's nothing that I can really show you but I want to tell you about it.
The heating system is a hydronic heat and hot water system, and it heats by either burning
electricity or propane.
And instead of using forced air to blow your heat around it uses radiant heat so it's quiet,
it's very fast, and, um, you don't use as much battery power because your not pushing
a fan to you know to blow the air around.
Like you are in a normal forced air furnace.
So it's really pleasant to be in here with that system.
Now early on there I mentioned we have a new kind of a chassis.
This is actually the longest chassis that Sprinter offers without going to a cut away
like the class C. Now class B's are kind of special because they're built on a van body
instead of a cutaway body.
Alright so now in the back here we also have a ton of storage so what we can do here, we
can lift these cabinets and I can show you that there is amounts of storage here and
all of this cabinetry is plywood and is super strong and it's all screwed together, not
staples.
So people who've owned Roadtreks for decades find that their cabinets hold up well.
The quality of workmanship is the very best.
In fact Roadtrek has the longest warranty of any product in the industry.
Typically an RV as a one year warranty, Roadtrek warrants their workmanship for 6 years and
that includes the appliances, in this particular model it's a really big deal because there
is a lot of high technology.
And they're saying hey what we did is good for 6 years we'll stand behind it that long.
There is any complay in the industry that is willing to do that.
That's what makes Roadtrek the best.
Ok let's look at the very back here.
We can see that there is a TV system built in.
So what I can do with this, is I can turn this around anywhere I want.
I can even turn it around to the kitchen or if I'm swiveling my front seats, which we'll
look at shortly, I can watch from the front.
The nice is about that is sometimes people want to leave their bedding just folded in
a bed positions and do their sitting around up front.
So the TV comes in handy both ways.
Right here is your home theatre system.
You also have A really nice big deep cabinet back here, and because this is the long body
there is another storage from the top in the back we'll see that.
Ok let's take a look at the bathroom.
So one thing that's cool with the Roadtrek is that their bathroom's are very very well
engineered.
The biggest challenge with a camper van is how do you make everything fit within a small
packed space.
So with Roadtrek, what you can do you can make the bathroom pretty spacious but still
have a nice wide hallway.
And one of the ways you do that is this.
When I'm not using the bathroom you close it flush.
When I am using it.
It closes at an angle, it makes it a bigger inside but the second party can still walk
around out here.
So it's a real practical design.
We'll just put that down.
Now let's take a look here.
Some of the differences between CS and the other models because there are a bunch of
different models that Roadtrek offers.
The CS is unique because it has more refrigeration and more storage in the galley so.
When you look in here you can see there there is a large cabinet here, it's got removable
shelving, you can actually take these out.
They're not fixed.
And there is a hanger up at the very top.
And that works great.
So there is extra storage, most of the vans like the anRS this al all wide open.
Also look at these huge cabinet drawers in the kitchen.
Great amounts of storage here.
Now when you want to that's locked and it isn't going to come open.
And when you want to open it you pop that little button and it opens right up.
They put storage here There is a massive cabinet right down here.
They've got granite counter tops They have a beautiful beautiful stainless back splash
here.
A deep recessed sink.
And they have a recessed stove top.
So what's cool here is when the tops are down I got extra counter space.
it's a really really good design that way.
So now watch this, I just hit the battery disconnect, you see all these beautiful LED
lights in here?
I can turn each one on and off individually.
Now LED's are great because they give off a lot of light and they don't use very much
battery power on board.
But they are really really are neat when you can turn them on and off individually instead
of just having a few lights in the coach, this has a ton of lights.
Low look at the refrigerator.
In a campervan, usually you get a small 3 cubic foot fridge that sits below the counter
tops so your having to reach down and get to that.
A Lot of times the cabinet that holds the microwave is also below the counter tops,
this is many camper vans that you may look at.
On this one they put this one up here so I can, the the microwave, and this is actually
a convection microwave, I should point that out.
Um, convections are cool because you can bake with it as well as microwave.
This is at eye level so my hot plate is coming out up here instead of coming out and having
to reach down here.
Now look at the fridge.
The fridge is really really big.
There is a large freezer for those of us that have got to have our ice cream, this is the
way to go.
And it's got a lot more storage than the typical refrigerator.
So what does CS stand for?
I don't know, I think it kind of stands for Camper Special.
Because I can get off the grid and I can have more storage, more food, more things in my
pantry and also this has more ability to camp because this really a rolling power plant.
And I'll tell you quickly about that.
This model comes standard with a very large solar panel and four deep cycle AGM6 volt
batteries.
It also has a number of options to upgrade to battery systems.
Where you can go up to 1600 Warp Core, which is their name for this amazing, power plant
system with a 600 watt solar panel and the lithium ion AGM, not AGM but the lithium ion
battery system which is all new technology.
And it's fantastic.
These things can be configured exactly how you would want them, so you don't pay for
the features you don't want and you do pay for features you do.
So this is a very very exciting vehicle and it all represents the most cutting edge type
of technology.
Now let's take a look at the Mercedes part up here in the front.
Ok so with a Mercedes, as far as Roadtrek goes they've done what they do, Mercedes is
also the best motor home chassis out there.
This chassis is a commercial chassis used for all kinds of work.
You see them as federal express and uh, UPS and plumbers and electricians, all kinds of
people use these van chassis, because they are very very economical, they are very very
strong and durable, they haul cargo, they are very stable and fun to drive.
It's great in a big city, it's great on the highway.
And that's why they make such good vehicles for this kind of motor home to, because it
needs the same versatility.
So as you look in the front you're going to see that we have a really comprehensive automobile
in the front.
This has the Beccer Navigation system.
With Bluetooth and the telephone system and everything there.
It's got a beautiful climate control system that's very easy to use.
It's got, this particular one has heated seats, so we can do that.
It's got rear defrost, it's got all kinds of stuff.
We have redundant controls on the steering wheel so we can, we can control things from
right at where are hands are.
This also safety features like lane alert, which will tell you if you start to drift
out of your lane it will beep and alert you to the fact that you're not in your lane anymore.
It's really really sophisticated.
This has side curtain airbags and 4 wheel ABS brakes.
Automatic skid reduction.
And they're all disk brakes to, the level of safety and performance this vehicle has
is really not available in a typical motorhome.
Most people don't us the word handling and motorhomes in the same sentence, but you can
say this handles extremely well.
It's a joy to drive.
Um I certainly recommend you try it out, you're going to love it.
Let's go outside and take a look around out there.
Ok now outside this is kind of a deceptive rig.
You never know that it was a motorhome by looking at the outside.
The exterior is very smooth.
There isn't a lot of plastic geegas and bobbles hung up all around out here like you know,
plugins and things like that, it's very very subtle.
This does have a beautiful power awning up top, you just hit a button and the awning
extends itself, and then you can anchor the legs to the ground or to the side of the coach,
it's got these beautiful black out windows here and with the new monochrome style of
paint and finish they are doing on Roadtrek, absolutely gorgeous to look at.
Um, I really really really love the way these things look and in your driveway if you have
homeowners association nobody is going to squack.
It's a great looking gig in your driveway.
Ok so as we go around to the back, Back there isn't really anything that says it's a motorhome.
It's got a tow hitch, and by the way this rated to pull 7000 lbs so if you need to pull
a boat or a utility trailer or horse trailer, you can do it with one of these.
It's got a back up camera which is that guy up on top.
And other than that, it's just a beautiful van on the back.
Take a look here at this back area.
Now I mentioned earlier that this is the XL model.
And so as we take a look here what we see is this whole extra space.
Right now there is a golf bag hanger in here and you can set your golf bags up in here
and that's kind of the idea with this package.
But this is also removable and you can expand all of this space for storage.
Look down here and there is a locking cabinet, I don't know if it's locked right now, that's
where those extra batteries are located.
Its got oh this has got a gob of batteries.
So this one here um has more storage up at the very top from the back which you can see
up there and also if you look at this black vinyl strap around here this is where a screen
panel can zip in so how nice is it that you can have your doors open and get fresh air
or sunlight or sleep under the stars and keep the bugs out.
That's really really nice.
Now one other thing I want to talk about is there are a few other brands that offer this
XL body chassis, this is the 24 foot long body.
But rather than create this versatile space, they just move the couch back.
So that's fine but what's the point of having the extra length if you can't make some extra
storage and cargo versatility out of it.
I really like what Roadtrek has done here.
Ok.
Now we look down this side and once again what we're seeing is just a beautiful rig
with monochrome paint, gorgeous alloy custom wheels.
And I want to show you something really neat.
Usually When you are working with your storage or your utility area's in an RV Your down
low fighting with your keys, trying to get into compartments.
Look at this, no keys, so I can pull that out, that's where my macerator sewer system
is, that is a cool thing that works better than the regular gravity dump.
It's all integrated and built in And you can reach all of your gate valves without getting
down on your knees at a swerer station, very clean, I like it alot.
Your propane is located here.
Right down here that's where your 30 amp power supply hooks up and that's where your spare
tire is.
So it's really really easy to access these spaces and because it's a sprinter chassis
it really doesn't have a lot of outside storage no there's not need to locking keys.
So that's my quick thumbnail sketch of a CS Adventurous from Roadtrek EL wide body, Not
wide body, long body.
And this is a brand new 2016.
I know you'd love to see it in person, I hope you get a chance to.
