You feel the outdoors calling to you, but maybe you have been worried about the costs of a new RV. It can seem like a lot of money to spend in order to hit the open road. There are always used and older models you could buy, but the peace of mind of a factory warranty and modern amenities sounds very appealing. Until a few years ago, it would be tough to figure out which direction to go.
Roadtrek has been known for their great class B motorhomes for decades, but has recently taken a step to open up the market for new RV owners. Hitting the market over the past couple of years are the Simplicity and Simplicity SRT. These are built on the Ram ProMaster chassis and are intended to be the best entry point for people buying their first new RV.
Like other class B RVs, the Simplicity and Simplicity SRT have a smaller footprint than other classes and are easier to drive and maneuver. They also have gas engines that provide plenty of power for loading up with gear and towing without having to worry about finding a diesel pump to refuel. Both models can sleep three on a rear queen size and front single bed. The queen bed in the Simplicity is power foldable and converts to a bench for additional seating during the day.
The Simplicity models bring many modern RV features to a price point that was not available prior to their launch. Interior LED lighting significantly reduces energy usage and is a major benefit for dry camping. The expanded galley area provides plenty of space and modern appliances so you can eat well. Your driving experience also gets all the modern safety upgrades, including electronic assists to help when dealing with high winds, towing, and even hill starts.
They also offer options to help increase your comfort and convenience. You can have an outdoor shower added on to clean up after a day at the beach or if your dog found something exciting to roll in out in the woods that you’d prefer not to bring inside. There’s also an under hood generator that will help you keep you comfortable in your air conditioning on extended boondocking trips.
Starting under $90,000 for the Simplicity and Simplicity SRT, there’s never been a more affordable way to get all the modern amenities of a new RV. Johnson RV has the Roadtrek Simplicity to rent and for sale. If you’ve been waiting for the right opportunity to come along so that you can start your new adventure, it’s just arrived.
