If you like the Vegas/Axis 24.1 floorplan but your wife feels like it’s too big & wants better MPG...
You might consider the Synergy Sprinter or Citation Sprinter with the 24ST floorplan.
You’ll get the popular Mercedes diesel front end (small class C), but much better MPG. I’ve heard it’s 14-16 depending on how it’s loaded, how fast you drive and whether you’re towing.
It’s about the same length at 25’10” (vs Vegas/Axis 25’6”), but narrower and not as tall. Also has a shorter wheelbase.
So the perception for most is that it’s much easier to drive.
New or used it’ll cost more than Vegas/Axis (probably because of the Mercedes front end).
By the way...the 24.1 & the ST floorplan are my favorites because you can sleep in the coach without using the slide.
Great for inconspicuous overnight boon-docking while on the road to a final destination, or mid-day naps in the beach parking lot.
