Description

2009 Interstate on a 2008 Sprinter
This is badged as a Freightliner. All Sprinters are Mercedes Benz, (which owns Frieghtliner)
Sleeps 2 + Child
Seat Belts for 8
3.0 Turbo Diesel--17-18 MPG- Runs Good, no oil usage between changes
2008/09 does not use DEF as the newer units do. This cuts down on many problems.

When we bought the unit 5 or 6 years ago we found out the factory installed invertor/charger is very poor. The new batteries only lasted a year because they were overcharged. We had the electrical system upgraded by "Lewster" who is well known for Airstream electrical upgrades. This cost around $6000 but made a huge difference.

Upgraded Electrical:2017 by Lew Farber-RVIA Certified Master Technician*AM Solar Authorized Installation Center INVERTER-Magnum 1000 watt sine wave inverter/charger

The transmission failure was due to leaking turbo/intercooler hoses which burned up the torque converter.
