FINDING ONE

Scarce — months of watching; be ready to fly and drive it home. Why: Roadtrek is a small builder; 13-year production run; 16 years out of production; an uncommon body style. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ

Short-wheelbase sibling to the 190 - fits a normal parking space but gives up the twin/king rear sofa and half the fresh water.
