Airstream Interstate Grand Tour Ext

This is an amazing class b rv that is made by Mercedes. It is a luxury adventure rv that has all the best luxuries in it. With its storage space, this amazing vehicle can hold up to 2 adults and 1 child and can seat 7 people comfortably.

Sharing the same chassis as their Airstream Interstate, the Grand Tour Edition features a heavier-duty suspension to cope with the extra weight of people or cargo when compared to other Class B camper vans out there on the market today. Built on Mercedes Benz chassis, these rvs are stronger than most in in the class b category which have their roots in conversions from full size vans made by ford, Chevrolet/GMC & Dodge.

The 7-speed transmission found in this rv is perfect for the power output of the V-6 engine to give it an anti-slip performance in steep downhills and also to improve fuel economy. On a side note, this machine doesn't really need to be full or empty in order to get great mileage, just fill it up when your tank is at 1/4 and you'll be getting around 18 miles to the gallon.

The Airstream Interstate Grand Tour Ext has a price of roughly $189,000 with its main competitor being a Ford Class B RV which starts out at only $57,000.

Sleeping Quarters (Spacious)

With space to sleep 2 adults, the grand tour ext has the basic sleeping quarters of a traditional RV. The queen sized bed can be found near the back of the vehicle behind the driver and passenger side of the cabin with storage on either side of it.

The Airstream Interstate Grand Tour Ext is definitely not made for comfort while standing up but there are two benches that slide out to provide more seating space if you don't have an outside table available or just want to sit on something other than your bed. This will create better standing room as well, creating additional living space in which to enjoy your time away from home.

Kitchen Area (Spacious)

Adequately equipped with all kitchen essentials, this Class B RV keeps things simple yet effective when it comes to making meals during a trip. The 1.2 cu. ft. drawer saves space by doubling as a pantry while the pull-out hand-wash basin provides more than adequate cleaning space. The kitchen area features a stove top, sink, refrigerator with freezer and storage for all your pots, pans and dishes.

Shower/Toilet Room (Adequate)

A shower room is standard with this RV but it does not come with any toiletries so you may want to bring your own or stop by the local store to pick some up before taking off on an adventure away from home if some are not readily available in your inventory already. There is no bath tub or even anything really deeper than ankle deep here without feeling like you're swimming if you forget something during your next outing.

Tankless Water Heater

With the tankless water heater available in this rv, you won't have to constantly be refilling your water or wasting resources on heating what you don't use. In this case, the amount of hot water available in the shower is just right for a group of up to three people not spending overly long periods of time under the warm spray without needing to refill it halfway through.
