FINDING ONE

Patient search — weeks of watching, and probably some travel. Why: Roadtrek is a small builder; 17-year production run; 12 years out of production; an uncommon body style. Estimated from build volume and production span — not a count of live listings.

THE READ

The smallest Roadtrek of the Chevy era and the last 170 standing - four-wheel-drive was never offered on it, unlike the 190.
