Roadtrek says:
"Do you want an ideal way to leave the rest of the world behind without sacrificing creature comforts or driving and parking convenience? Based on the great handling Chevrolet Express 3500 extended van, the 190 models set the mood whether you're lazing down endless backcountry roads, or searching for that restaurant the locals have been raving about.

When it's cruising for just the two of you, the 190-Popular really comes into its own. You'll be cheerful and rested in the front captain's seats when you watch dusk silhouette the road ahead, and you're seeking that perfect spot to spend the night. When it's time to turn in, the rear dinette or power sofa converts to a sumptuous king-size bed (6'4" long on one side) or into two comfy twin beds (6'4" & 6’0” long).For extra passengers, there are forward facing seatbelts at the rear (two with dinette, three with sofa).

Round those features off with a full-length wardrobe, loads of storage, a front dining table and a well-equipped galley - just pack up and you can hit the road for weeks. Now that's romance"

RoTi READERS COMMENTS

  • "I would buy another one in a heartbeat"

"The ability to dine at the front lets you leave the rear beds made up for sleeping full time. People can wake up and retire at different times, plus you don’t have to set up a dinette or sofa to eat every morning, or make up a bed every night."

Al C :   Yes you are right Gypsie about the twin beds it would be nicer. We were looking also at the Agile but like you said it's nicer to look outside then to look at the gally. I am with you all the way on that.

Gypsie in style :   I have look at the SS.Ideal. Too bad they don't make twin beds. As for the SS.Agile they have twin beds BUT the stove and sink is on the wrong side. It's much nicer to have both of them on the side of the awning and still talk with your friends. Looking at my neighbor does not interest me. So I have to look at Great West or Pleasure Way.

Happy Hiker :   We just bought a 190 Popular. Any suggestions about how to maximize the storage space? Never had an rv before so we are looking for ideas and suggestions from the road warriors out there. My husband and I are used to traveling light. Thanks!!

Danielle :   I am debating between 170 and 190. Want something small double bed with the comfort of home. Fuel efficiancy. Only 2 people I have read about pleasure way...any comment about them?. Thank you

Dave R :   Purchased 97/170 in 2006 with 112,000 mi 180,000 km now has 132,500 mi212,000 km no major problems. Great to travel in we were rear ended in Montreal and pushed into an 18-wheeler with no personal injuries and the RT survived well .Reccommend one strongly.
