Considering Class B+

I've finally been able to get my wife to consider RVing and after a lot of online research we think the Atlas would fit, due mainly to the real mattress and the bath size. (We're pretty active but just over 70 yrs old.) Very expensive but we've found a great deal on a 2018 - just waiting for the virus to die down so we can travel to check it out. Anyone have any experience with the 'first generation' of the Atlas that we should consider. Also, I'd welcome any ideas or comments on this subject. Thanks for any help!

I have seen a few for sale. We are on our 4th AS TT, but have been considering next move...not going to be the Atlas for us. Too much money and I hate having to take down/put up the "murphy bed"/couch..poor design if you ask me. The same engine/chassis from MBZ in same size is avalible from several models made on same frame, including by Thor-https://www.thormotorcoach.com/siesta-sprinter/floor-plans/24ST

Also check out Tiffin Wayfar queen or twin models...nice layouts for half the price of the AS model...don't get me wrong; I love our AS trailers...just not the Atlas for the money; I think there are many others less expensive with more features and choices for the interior layout on same Sprinter MBZ chassis and engines.
