Hi everyone, I would like to introduce myself to this community. We are the proud owners of a brand new Sunseeker RV. We have been camping for years and we decided to step down in length to be able to go everywhere and have better spots in campground because of the size of the unit. Looking forward to read your comments on this forum.

Welcome to the Forums Polariste from Huntsville, AL USA!
Nice looking rig in your avatar! Is that the Sunseeker on the Mercedes chassis?

Hi BamaBob, yes it is a 2016 Sunseeker with a 2014 Mercedes chassis with a 3 litres turbo diesel engine. I hope that it will give me better gaz mileage than my Ford 2011 ecoboost with a 26 foot trailer! The wife will also drive it so I will be able to enjoyed the road from a different point of view!

Indeed! I have heard (but have not seen numbers) that those diesels get great mileage! Let us know what yours gets when you get the chance.
