How many miles on your Class B ?

[mrcolin2u]

I've got 90700 miles on my 2005 AI and getting ready for a road trip which I expect will exceed 4000 miles.
I've had my van for 6 years and added 43k miles from when I got it.

Just wondering how many miles others have racked up here on the forum on their class B Sprinters ?

There was 193,000 miles on the 2006 Interstate in May of 2018, and the 2007 Interstate I’ve had almost two years has about 81,000 miles on it...about 25,000 of those miles are mine.

So, between the two, about 220,000 travel miles in an Airstream Interstate.

2004 Sprinter chassis AI. I bought it last year with 104k on it. I've put 10k on it in the past year for a now-total of 114k.

I put 40k miles on the 1995 Coachmen RB on a Ford e250 chassis with a 351 Windsor and E4OD transmission from 2015-2019. It still only had 68k on it when I sold it.

Purchased our van with 25k and are at about 85k now.

Bought ours new in April 2014 and have 70,000 miles on it thus far. (Unfortunately no miles this year due to Covid 19.) We essentially use the Interstate only for our vacation travels and put about 10-15,000 miles per year on each of our other two vehicles. Not sure it makes sense for 2 of us to have three vehicles as I know that many use their Interstate as a primary vehicle. But it works well for us.

Mine had 17,000 when we bought it and now at 68,000.

We bought ours in 2016 with 17,000 miles on the Coach. It now has 37,000 miles. Now planning some modifications and hoping to do some long miles with a cross country trip and perhaps one to Alaska.

Purchased in January 2016, now is 112,000 miles. Driving for pleasure.

Purchased our AI GT Tommy Bahama new in March 2018. Now has 28.4K miles. Has treated us extremely well. Currently listed for sale.

[Luckysnuck]

Purchased new in August 2018 and just clicked over 15K this weekend...very happy with this machine. Tried out our Airstream Weber Q1200 Gas Grill for the first time, worked flawlessly!

Bought our '2012 Avenue Suite 2-1/2 years ago with 25K miles. It has 48K miles now. Only about 1,000 miles added in the past 6 months.

Except our engine only has about 9,000 miles on it because it exploded one year and eleven days ago, and had to be replaced at a cost of around fourteen thousand dollars.

What forced explosion?

Cylinder blew out. Inconclusive as to what caused the metal to fail.

Wow. And after how many miles it blew?

Purchased our 2018 leftover in November 2019, with 300 miles on the clock.

Seven months later, we have 18,200 miles on the odometer. Experienced some of the worst winter blizzards driving through Utah, and Wyoming.

This has been a terrific rig - safe and reliable!

We bought our used with around 12k miles on it (it was about a year old). We now have about 25k on it. With 9k coming from our trip to Alaska last year. So far the MB potion has been great, the Airstream fit-out has suffered some of the usual issues.

My 2013 Interstate, purchased new in October 2012, now has 120,000 miles. I was doing about 20,000 miles per year - but not likely this year. No serious issues with van which gets all required service at local Freightliner dealer. Had rear differential pinion seal replaced because of a leak at 80,000 miles in 2017.

Only emissions system problem was DEF tank heater failure in September 2019 at 104,000 miles. It cost $2,000 to repair. Failed just past the 5 year/100,000 mile emissions warranty. Looking back I probably should have pushed for a good will warranty repair. Now on third set of tires. Have replaced front struts with Koni versions. Replaced the rear shocks twice, now running Fox shocks.
