2005/2006 Airstream Interstate Parkway Front Sleeper (FS)
Mercedes Benz Sprinter 2500 platform, 43,082 chassis miles.
2.7 L, 5 cylinder turbo diesel. 4,187 new engine miles. Purchased ~25K, bad diesel at station (fluke, nothing we or this vehicle did) caused engine replacement @38,895 on 11/21/2018 cost of $21,038 (covered, whew!)
Many prefer this year of engine as it can be a “million mile engine” and does not have the emissions systems that are used since.
Turbo resonator has already been replaced.
It had the Green Diesel Engineering tune on it. Made a noticeable difference in power and torque.
Would do again now that new engine warranty has run out. Did not reapply due to warranty concerns on new engine. Not a factor in the engine issue but did not want that to be an excuse.
20 plus MPG. Faster you go less you will get.
Measures 22 foot bumper to bumper. Can park in normal spots at the grocery store, etc.
New Michelin’s tires at 37,974 miles on 7/9/2018.
5,000 lb. hitch, 7 wire plug. We have towed a 17’ dual axle trailer with go karts and a Miata in it with no problems.
We upgraded:
Nations Starter upgraded 280 amp alternator. Extra amps can be split off to recharge house batteries.
Agile Off Road, Fox adjustable coil over/shock upgrade. Much better ride.
Brembo rotor, caliper, pads upgrade. Much better stopping.
Blackout covers with Velcro for all side and back windows. You can’t tell someone is in the RV with the lights on at night.
All lights have been replaced with M4 LEDs. More light less battery drain.
The Front lounge has 2 couches up front to combine with the cab area for living space and leaves the other items at the back.
Swivel mechanisms are sold (not included) for both of the cab seats.
The couches fold down to make a (~queen) bed the entire width of the van. We had brackets installed to be able to support a cot system (included if wanted) to sleep two teenage boys above the bed (see pictures).
The entire front 2/3 area is removable or reconfigurable.
TV is mounted on a slide so it can slide up out of the way or down towards the dash and a bracket that tilts TV up out of the way or down to watch.
Coach includes:
Onan propane generator (61 hours)
Electric/propane Dometic refrigerator
Carrier roof AC
LP furnace

Two Burner range.
Propane hot water heater
30 Gallon fresh water tank
31 Gallon black water holding tank

Why are we selling?
I have some ideas on building my own RV Van from scratch.
