Success Stories

Vanlifetrader.com was amazing! Not only do they display the listings beautifully, but the packages they offer are very worth it. My van was listed for about a week and it sold! Jon was really helpful when I deleted my listing and needed to repost it and he answered right away and was more than helpful. The fact that they post the listings on their Instagram with 200k followers alone is enough. I would definitely recommend this website for anyone who wants to buy/ sell a van!

2015 Roadtrek Mercedes Sprinter 3500 Motorhome - Minimally Invasive Luxury

Touring the Nebraska Corn Fields in Style

Lazelle Jones Writer Apr 27, 2015

See All 7 Photos

It’s true: both Johnny Carson and the entire Corps of Discovery slept here; however, the opportunities for discovery when poking around the northeast corner of Nebraska go far beyond that. Following blue-line highways and graded-gravel back roads that lace this area of America’s Heartland, our ride and accommodations would be the new E-Trek, a Class B Motorhome by Roadtrek. With a ’15 E-Trek at hand and with a lust to discover under-explored places, our sights were set on the northeast corner of the Cornhusker State.

Built on a Mercedes Sprinter 3500 (dualie) platform, the 3.0L turbocharged V-6 diesel engine comes married to a five-speed automatic transmission. The E-trek is designed to transport seven and sleep four, with a private residential-style bath (marine-style toilet, full shower, lavvy) and a U-shaped rear sofa converts into a king or two single beds. The front four seats (two in the cockpit and two mid-coach) make up into single beds. The full-service galley includes a cooktop, refrigerator, sink, solid-surface counter, microwave/convection oven, and cabinets. A table can be set up in the rear of the coach or up front, where four can sit down to dine when the cockpit seats are facing aft.

This Class B motorhome is designed to be minimally invasive to the environment, but this has been done without sacrificing the luxuries and comforts associated with the RV lifestyle. Equally important is that the systems and technologies used to achieve this are transparent to the end-user. The E-Trek consumes only diesel fuel (no propane or auxiliary gen-sets). Eight 6V deep-cycle batteries and a 5,000-watt inverter power everything electrical (roof AC, induction cook-top, refrigerator, and lighting). Heating and hot water is provided by a closed-loop diesel-fired boiler system by Webasto that’s augmented by engine heat. In cold weather, the Webasto system can be used to preheat the 3.0L V6 Mercedes engine. At idle, the Mercedes engine drives a 3.5kW generator for use during stand-alone RV camping. A second 5.5kW generator (also engine driven) charges the eight house batteries while driving over the road. Thirty-amp shore power service makes it so the E-Trek can be enjoyed in the most upscale of RV campgrounds. Checking fuel economy on two occasions, the first number (under steady-state operating conditions with the chassis air conditioner running) came in at 19.8 mpg. The second calculation came in at 19.3 mpg, which is very respectable for a large (11,030-pound GVWR) Class B motorhome.

Geared Up for Adventure

Where the meandering Missouri River defines the boundaries between Nebraska, Iowa (to the east), and South Dakota (to the north), the opportunities to wander are endless. On the Nebraska side of the “Wide Missouri,” Lewis and Clark made camp more than a dozen times, a fact folks here are proud of and one that has garnered Nebraska a unique place in early American history. And almost as famous as Lewis and Clark (maybe not quite) is the iconic late night talk-show host Johnny Carson, who grew up here in the town of Norfolk. A personality who ruled late night television for decades, Carson is remembered by the millions who were soothed at the end of each busy work day by the words, “Heeeeeere’s Johnny!”

Prior to Lewis and Clark (and Johnny Carson), the Pawnee and Sioux inhabited the region, followed by trappers and mountain men, and after Lewis & Clark by pioneers, ranchers, and more recently, corn and soybean agri-magnates. All have written a chapter to this rich history. This is a landscape laced with wineries and breweries, fine- and folk-art galleries, museums, heartland comfort foods, dramatic landscapes and waterways, and small towns where motion pictures are filmed. To boot, the area is a huge draw among outdoors sportsmen and recreationalists. Suffice it to say, the folks who today live here work as hard as their forefathers did to make the place the cornucopia it is.

The first hand-built Hymer motorhome, the Caravano made its debut in 1961 in Germany and other models followed including the Hymermobil, Hymer B-Class and S-Class.  With a rich history of 60 years in the industry, the Hymer name has become synonymous with motorhomes. The status is based not only on long standing history but being a trendsetter in the industry.

Erwin Hymer Group came to North America in 2016 with the acquisition of Roadtrek, a company built in 1980. Roadtrek was born when Jac Hanemaayer purchased Home and Park Motorhomes and created the redesigned vehicle to have the now famous sweeping roofline, lowered floor and three section floor plan.

The acquisition created Erwin Hymer Group North America (EHGNA) and has the European design, German engineering, North American technology and rich history of the two combined companies. The impressive lineup of class B models are built on Mercedes, Chevrolet and Ram ProMaster chassis.

Our brands still stay true to Innovation, quality and trust. These qualities are present in every model ranging from the smallest Hymer Sonne model to the midsized Roadtrek SS Agile to the first environmentally friendly Roadtrek E-trek model.

Erwin Hymer Group North America is the leading manufacturer of class B motorhomes in North America, selling its motorhomes through a network of independent RV dealers in the USA, Canada and Japan.

Roadtrek’s new RS E-Trek is Perfect for Boondocking

Maybe now we should call it “Boontreking.”

That's my take after a hands-on look at the brand new, high tech and eco-friendly RS E-Trek, the latest addition to the Roadtrek family of motorhomes.

I made my way across the International Bridge to Canada in Port Huron, MI and drove 100 miles northeast to the Roadtrek factory in Kitchener, ON. The RS E-Trek I saw was the first to roll off the assembly line. Several others are now in various stages of completion in anticipation of the first orders starting to roll in. I have no doubt they indeed will.

The RS E-Trek is a very innovative RV.

The E-Trek is all electric. It has no propane, needs no external generator. Instead, it provides all the juice you need through an advanced generator system that runs off the vehicle engine, aided by a solar panel and optional fuel cells.

You can see it all in my video above, shot at and around the Kitchener, Ontario Roadtrek headquarters in Canada.

The E-Trek is on the regular Mercedes Sprinter chasis (170 inch wheelbase) and it is painted in a subtle shade of green. The first thing you'll notice is that unique, yet low-keyed color. Even the ground effects and body moldings are painted the same color. The decals and logos are intentionally subtle and downplayed, giving the E-Trek a very sleek , clean look.

But it's the infrastructure that has me excited. I love wilderness camping. This vehicle can let me do that like never before.

“This changes all the previous assumptions about a Class B, that you have to have shore power,” Roadtrek President Jim Hammill told me. “It provides independence to the owner. The E-Trek uses solar power, fuel cell power and uses the existing bio diesel engine of the vehicle in order to provide more power than has ever been provided to the Class B RV before. This allows the owner to say out in the field, not connected to shore power, for much longer periods of time.”

You can even run the interior air conditioner while you're going down the road, without having to power up a generator.

The 240 watt solar panel just needs daylight to generate power, not direct sunlight. You can run the DVD, TV and all interior LED lights just off the soar power. Pretty much indefinitely.

The interior has also been redesigned. There's a new soft cushioned floor that looks like wood flooring. They've added a second water spigot that delivers instant hot water for tea or hot chocolate or filtered drinking water. They've removed the old gas burners and put in an instant-on all electric induction stovetop and added some stylish new counter and table tops made of recycled plastic. There's now a second row of seating in upgraded,  very plush swivel captain-style chairs. Seriously, they are as comfortable and comfy as my home recliner.

I can't wait to get hold of an RS E-Trek for an extended period of time. I want to get far out there, in the woods and mountains and fields and be totally self contained to really test out the power-generating capabilities. Hammill told me if you run the engine 20 minutes a day, everything is charged enough to keep you out there for days at a time… until you need to go get some more diesel for the engine.

I'm already planning my trips to go… BoonTreking in an RS E-Trek.

Here are some stills I snapped while making the video:

My 98 Roadtrek Versatile needs a new propane tank. I have had bad luck with my RT which I bought a few months ago. Just spent thousands on a new transmission. Then Camping World told me I needed a new propane gage, then a week later the tank leaked and come to find out I need a tank! How much is that going to cost me? Help! [email protected] Thank you!

Would love to see this model available with awd. Mercedes has this available everywhere in the world except north America. Their intelligent awd delivers power to wheels to help get out of slippery sandy icy locations that you would otherwise be fearful of as boon dockers. An RS E-Trek iAWD would be the ultimate 4 season go everywhere vehicle.

Very nice… I wonder what the RV Rental Prices would be on the E Trek? If only all RVs were eco-friendly 🙂

November 10, 2012at9:49 am , Gordon Meggison said:

I notice this unit also has the mechanical bed. This bed is the most uncomfortable bed ever. I hope that RT will improve on it. I have an RS ADV 2012 and have asked RT to work on improving the bed. There is a 5″ gap between the back and the seat. This shouldn’t go on. This has been a problem for some time, so I brought it to the attention of RT this week. Hope they are able to address the problem and fix it.

November 10, 2012at9:43 am , Mary Ann Stibbe said:

Can you show a larger view of the bathroom. Can the secon row seats be replaced with storage cabinets for those of who do not travel with extended family or guests. How do I get a copy of the options available.

November 01, 2012at2:07 pm , Gordon Meggison said:

Mike, just got back from our first 30 day trip in the RS Adventerous 2012. Got 19 mpg at 60 mph towing a 6×11 trailer in florida, 17 mpg in hill ctry in Ga, and 14.9 mpg in mountains. Had a few issues the unit being new. Bed was very uncomfortable, the gap between the backrest and the seat when in the bed mode was simply uncomfortable. and the l l/2″ rise on the side cusions left one sleeping with head lower than the feet. Dealer raised the bed even wit the cushions, but said nothing could be done with the gap. couple of cabinets popped open, on hinge let go above the clothes closet, and the bathroom leaked around the sink. Guages on the black water didn’t work. Showed always full. Am in process of soaking them if that doesn’t work, Dealer says they will change the top one out. Other than the above minor repairs, driving the vehicle was great. Good acceleration, good diesel mileage. Not 21/22 but decent. Gps doesn’t work worth a tinkers dam, and can’t see the back up sensor since it is too far from the drivers seat, especially if the sun is out. The connection for the dump tanks outside, poor planning with shut off valve, can’t close the hatch, since the valve is in the way, have to travel with it partly open. Read your article, we have added a convection burner to our unit also, can’t say enuf good things about magnetic burners. Don’t want to seem like I’m complaining but these things could be engineered better if RT is but made aware of the. (one would think) again, have enjoyed your articles and talking to you on the phone. I promised I would let you know how the trip went to NC and GA so here it is. As ever gm

We are about ready to purchase an RS-Adventurous after reading your stories. Before that we were considering an Era. My question, sir, is should we instead purchase an etrek? Did you trade your RS in for an etrek? If so, can we come see it as it is not at a dealer yet. We live just north of Dayton, Ohio and could drive to Michigan unless you happen to be driving down this way. We are looking to buy after the first of the year.

Got to see it at the Pomona show.

It also has LED lights inside, replacing the fluorescents in the standard RS. They have classy look and throw off a brighter light.

That new countertop looks and feels great in person.

And those second row captain’s chairs ARE super comfy.

They tell me 19-21 mpg, Bill

Anyone with a newer RS Adventurous with the dual rear wheels – What sort of gas mileage are you getting?

October 07, 2012at6:14 pm , Bill Mitchell said:

Thanks a lot, Mike. Just the sort of info-guess I was hoping for!

October 06, 2012at1:58 pm , Mike Wendland said:

Hi Bill… they haven’t announced pricing yet. So many options. But they say they will announce in next week or so. If I had to guess – and it’s only a guess – I’d bet it will $120K to $135K depending on options. The Airstream Interstate Sprinter model, closest competitor to the Roadtrek E-Trek but without all the green/solar power options – is $140-$145K.

October 06, 2012at10:46 am , Bill Mitchell said:

Looks like a great vehicle, Mike. Any idea of the price range if not particular prices by various options?

October 04, 2012at9:47 am , Alex said:

Well, forget about A/C, water heater, TV and other devices. Let’s do simple calculations with refrigerator. Power consumption of refrigerator as low as 6 A/h ( just for sample ) 6A x24 hours = 144 A/h daily. Solar panel can back you in best scenario 60A/h. So in 3-4 days your all 8 battery will be have 50% capacity. Ok , I am going to change my location and drive to another place. How long shell I drive to charge full all my battery ?? At list 8-10 hours……..Why? because max charging current for acid battery 10 -15 A/h Any comments??

October 03, 2012at8:14 pm , Alex said:

Could somebody tell me how works water heater? Or no hot water available for E-version?

October 03, 2012at6:51 pm , Bob Murphy said:

Also, check out how uncluttered the driver’s side of the E-tek is compared to a propane-powered RS. No vents, ports, exhausts – all eliminated, just the shower door now. Its amazingly clean v. propane.

Mike,loved your video on the E-Trek, however, the sound was very uneven which, at times, prevented me from hearing your melodious voice. Don’t know if others are experiencing this but thought you should know. Thanks again, great video on a superb design.

OK Angie… I’ve asked Jennifer to write an official post in response to your question about her reluctance to drive the RS. I have the 2006 model with the single wheels. I’m not sure whether the newer one with duals would give her more stability. I’m betting this will provoke discussion from other women RT drivers. Coming later today.

October 03, 2012at2:13 am , Angie O'Malley said:

I am eager to know if/when Jennifer drives the RS and what she thinks… I am very comfortable driving the 190 Popular but am skittish about driving the RS. Have never tried it….

October 02, 2012at10:41 pm , Marianne Edwards said:

So happy to see the interest in helping with boondocking. After all, that’s really the grass roots of RVing – all were originally built for dry-camping. In the history of RVs, hookups came much later.

We’re avid boondockers, have been RVing for 13 years and prefer finding a spot in the wilderness to campgrounds. We’ve also always driven a Roadtrek (currently a 2002 popular 190).

We’ve learned to manage just fine for 4 to 7 days without solar or generators so, for us, power consumption has never never the biggest issue.

There are two other factors that I suggest Roadtrek should look at if they’re truly serious about wooing boondockers: 1)Fresh water tank capacity. Even if we conserve very carefully, we need to carry an extra 7-gallons to survive 5 to 7 days. 2)Clearance. we wish Roadtrek could address its notorious extra-low clearance which limits driving on many of the roads that lead to the best scenic boondocking locations.

I’ll be curious about your thoughts on these matters after your true trial run, Mike.

I live in Elora, Ontario – just outside Kitchener and, although we’ve had a factory tour, we’re now anxious to return to see this model and ask more questions.

October 02, 2012at4:48 pm , Bill R said:

Mike – Thanks for sharing this info. I echo Jack’s comment – get ahold of an eTrek and really test it for us future buyers. I would have thought that Roadtrek would have built this on a 2500 chassis since the weight of the propane system and aux. generator are gone. I’ve also read on some forums where the dual wheels on the 3500’s cause a drop of 3-4 mpg (plus extra maintenance and tolls). On an ’06 RS Adventurous with 2500, ride/handling are quite good and mpg is a respectable 21-23 mpg. Not sure why the 3500 chassis is needed.

October 01, 2012at2:33 pm , Robert Wensel said:

Mike, Great job in introducing the Roadtrek RS E-trek. I can’t wait to have one at the dealership so I can start selling this inovative vehicle.

October 01, 2012at12:54 pm , Gary Hennes said:

Mike, Bring one of those up here to Northern MN this winter and let’s try it out at -30F. I didn’t hear much about heat sources or insulation yet.

September 30, 2012at9:42 pm , Jack Berger said:

Here’s an idea for you Mike: Do videos like this on ALL the Roadtrek models. I really like your style. No high pressure, friendly, interesting. I’d like to see your reviews on the other things Roadtrek makes. Really test them out. Take them out under real conditions faced by RVers. Just an idea. I also like your new stories on the interesting things you see. Keep them coming.

September 30, 2012at7:31 pm , Alex said:

Mike, do you need help in aerial video? I live in Guelph, 15 km from manufacturer

September 30, 2012at7:04 pm , Bob Murphy said:

Outstanding! In one fell swoop, the E-Trek eliminates our biggest issue in our desired style of camping – the propane generator noise.

We rented our first RV this summer, a Roadtrek Adventurous RS (because that’s the one we were most interested in buying). Camping in state/US parks, after our first night we wanted to try out the built-in coffee maker and had to fire up the propane generator to do so. We were taken back by the noise and didn’t use it again for the rest of the trip. This is a fantastic solution to our style of dry camping amongst tent campers. (Most of the sites we slipped into were “tent” sites – a real advantage with the RS let me tell you.) An open flame inside a vehicle never seemed that smart either (our cruise ship was all induction).

The second (and only other) issue we had with the RS was the fiddly second “bed” placed across the front and rear (lounge) seat. We stopped using that too.

QUESTION: Do the second row captain’s seats have adjustable headrests? There are none in the pictures/video.

Can’t wait to see this in Pomona!

Bob in San Diego

Answers to several comments here: No, Jennifer hasn’t driven the e-Trek yet. She doesn’t like to drive our current 2006 RS Adventurous on the interstates – too much bouncing from passing trucks. Anxious for her to try the E-Trek with the dual wheel wheels. Maybe she will soon, as we’re doing more videos in Kitchener on more RT models this coming week. And I’ll be testing the E-Trek in real conditions out in the field in a couple weeks. Yes, I will be at the by MARVAC Michigan camping show, probably Thursday and Friday. Also the big RV California RV show out in Pomona from Oct. 15-21. Anyone attending either show, just email me when you’re there and we’ll meet. They have not yet announced cost. Lots of optional setups. Dealers will be able to help answer that soon.

I’m reading this while boondocking in my 1998 190 V. Online via my smart phone modem ap. Have used some solar power with this RT, but WOW the e-trek looks fantastic. Fuel cells? Really? Not just lead acid batteries? And sounds like the bio diesel is used as the genset now? Excellent! How much water? That’s the other limiting factor for boondocking in my experience.

FYI I probably have over 1,500 nights boondocking in this 1998 190 — bought it new, has 242,000 miles on it now. Have not paid for a hotel for 2 to 3 conferences per year in Vegas for those 15 years, lived in it full time in Florida for five months 5 or so years ago. First year did 13,000 miles with my wife and our FOUR kids (put in side facing seat belts in the back) over 2 1/2 months of summer vacation (went from SLC, to Disneyland, over the Golden Gate, took a right to the Statue of Liberty, then to Kitchner, over Lake Michigan on a car ferry, to Badlands, Rushmore, Devils Tower and home again. Love this machine! Would like to retrofit with as many e-trek ideas as possible . . .

Hi Mike, Thanks for the update. Are you heading to the Detroit rv show Oct. 3-7? If you are let us know, maybe we can meet up. We haven’t picked a day yet.

September 29, 2012at3:23 pm , Angie O'Malley said:

Wow! Thanks for the pics and video. I wonder if RT will begin putting some of these features in the Chevy-based models.

We are so thankful for your reporting. Enjoy the stories, info, and pics. And…in the process you are raising the visibility (and image) of Type B Motorhomes — which may eventually get us access to some of the RV resorts, etc. that are only open to Type A motorhomes.

Question: Has Jennifer driven your RS yet?

September 29, 2012at3:09 pm , Fred Showker said:

Sweet unit if it actually lives up to the claims. I worry a lot about air conditioning in high temperatures … but I love the promise of propane-free, generator-free cruising … and will watch closely as the consumer feedback rolls in. 🙂 Thanks Mike!

Super job in showing us this, Mike. You’ve made quite a name for yourself in the RV world since you started your blog. We will be buying one more Roadtrek (to replace out 2003) and this new one looks very nice. Love the instant hot water feature and my husband likes the solar charging. I’m also sending this link to some friends who are thinking about getting into RVing.

I found your post after seeing it linked on someone’s Twitter feed. Very fortuitous as I am currently shopping for an RV for my wife and I when I retire in the spring. We do not want one of those huge units we see on the highway towing the contents of their house behind them. This new etrack looks like it would fit our needs perfectly. I’ve been reading all your back posts on this page and am very excited about this Roadtrek brand. How is it for resale value? I live in New Jersey and will try to visit one at a dealer nearby this weekend. Thanks for interesting information. You do a very good job and your enthusiasm really shines through. Hope to see you out there someday soon.

This looks awesome and has everything a Roadtreker could want in a vehicle. I am almost afraid to ask what is the retail?… Thinking about adding solar panel to my 2001 Popular…

Roadtrek E Trek Shore Power & Battery Charging

• Thread starter Sundevil1
• Start date Jun 26, 2015

When plugged into 30 amp shore power does the battery connect button need to be in the on (connect) position in order to charge the batteries or will the batteries charge from shore power even if the battery disconnect button is depressed?  

Arloshmarlo

Batteries connected (blue light next to switch lit) and inverter/charger ON to charge batteries from shore power.  

Thank you for clearing that up for me!  

My 2008 RS has a big sign near the switches saying the switch must be on  

I have a 2014 cs e-trek. There is a separate charger, and this unit does not use the inverter to charge the batteries. So the inverter does not have to be on, and the battery switch does not have to be on - there is a direct connection. You can check if you have this setup by looking in the drivers side rear wheelwell storage area inside the unit. There should be a solar controller, and if you have the same setup as I do, you will also see a charger. If you are adventurous, you can trace these wires to a box under the drivers rear under the van, and see these wires connect directly from there to the batteries. RT makes changes frequently, and the best thing is to look!

How true. My 2013 E-Trek originally had separate inverter and charger as sprntrownr describes. In Winter 2014 my E-Trek had some factory fixes/upgrades and was switched to the combined inverter/charger. So I guess some of the (early?) 2014s had the separate units.  

I think Arlo has pointed out the reality of the E-Treks. Perhaps that explains why I received manuals for several components that didn't exist in mine, but none for the charger/converter that did.  

obgraham said: If this is your setup, it is completely different from all the other CS E-Trek I've heard from, and certainly different from mine. True, the inverter/charger does not need to be on for the engine generator or the solar to charge the battery pack. But in my rig, if plugged into shore power, there is no 120v and no charging unless the inverter is on. We can agree on one thing: RT makes changes, and it's wise to confirm the specifics of one's own rig. The owner manuals do not cover every setup. Click to expand...

Yeah, Gary, the newer E-Treks are wired up a different way. Unfortunately there is no 120volt pass through for shore power. Inverter/charger has to be on, and is a noisy *** too.

First refuelling for Russia’s Akademik Lomonosov floating NPP

!{Model.Description}

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactor units. In such reactors, nuclear fuel is not replaced in the same way as in standard NPPs – partial replacement of fuel once every 12-18 months. Instead, once every few years the entire reactor core is replaced with and a full load of fresh fuel.

The KLT-40S reactor cores have a number of advantages compared with standard NPPs. For the first time, a cassette core was used, which made it possible to increase the fuel cycle to 3-3.5 years before refuelling, and also reduce by one and a half times the fuel component in the cost of the electricity produced. The operating experience of the FNPP provided the basis for the design of the new series of nuclear icebreaker reactors (series 22220). Currently, three such icebreakers have been launched.

The Akademik Lomonosov was connected to the power grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020.

Electricity generation from the FNPP at the end of 2023 amounted to 194 GWh. The population of Pevek is just over 4,000 people. However, the plant can potentially provide electricity to a city with a population of up to 100,000. The FNPP solved two problems. Firstly, it replaced the retiring capacities of the Bilibino Nuclear Power Plant, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya Thermal Power Plant, which is more than 70 years old. It also supplies power to the main mining enterprises located in western Chukotka. In September, a 490 km 110 kilovolt power transmission line was put into operation connecting Pevek and Bilibino.
