Is the Lineage will be distributed in Canada with the new chassis 4500 and the 12125 GVWR ? What is the occc with all the options visible?
@FinsAndPhotos10 күн бұрын
Grand Design has stated that the OCCC for the Lineage will be at least 1,100 pounds. There aren't a lot of options affecting weight other than theater seating vs. dinette. I know of one version with full body paint, upgraded seat material, and the dinette with a OCCC of 1,112.

@ there is the generator which is heavy 178 lbs if i am not mistaken that can be replaced by second alternator Nations 280ah and ws500. The two battery can be replaced by one Lithionics 320ah 12v. I don’t know the weight of one 130ah but maybe two 130ah is heavier than one 320. The slide is probably too big and heavy. A layout with only a smaller slide for just the sofa bed and pantry or fridge would be lighter. A low profile without the bunk could reduce the weight. Maybe the frame you added is too heavy for this small sprinter. Some concurrent are getting sometimes 1000 lbs occc with the 3500 chassis so it must be possible at least to get 1600 Occc on the sticker at least on the 4500. Remove one tv also. I don’t know. 1100 is not enough to me.

My new 170SE broke down in Flagstaff, AZ. The van has 9K miles and has been at the Mercedes-Benz dealership in Flagstaff for about a month now. The dealer has not communicated what the problem is or when it will be fixed. I’m disappointed with the process Mercedes has in place for handling these types of mechanical failures. Has anyone else experienced issues with the driveshaft, and how long do dealerships typically take to make repairs? This is my first-and probably last-Mercedes. I plan to file a formal complaint with Winnebago and the RV dealership I got the RV from (Mcclain's RV). As owner of one of these new vehicles I cannot provide positive feedback, my experience dealing with mechanical issues and Mercedes Benz has been horrible.

Balance beads don't do anything for heat. They might actually add a little heat. Better to balance the tire and wheel assembly and make sure the brakes are factory balanced. The other problem with beads is that they might mask impending bearing failures.

They were the only ones who addressed the "frame flex" issue that was industry wide by extending their unmatched 5 year frame warranty, 3 year structural warranty and 1 year hitch to bumper to every "average Joe" including secondary owners... for a manufacturer to be the first allow their factory warranty to transfer is a true testament to their commitment to their customers!

@CC-gt3ro10 күн бұрын
@@TomDavisVideoit is better to have cargo on a mercedes chassis than towing capacity. The coach is small. The important is to be able to put occupants and cargo and water and have a good electrical systems. If you want to tow, you need a 3500 chassis but you probably would have only 920 lbs or even less 700 lbs occc. So what’s the point? If you want to tow you need a class A or super C. The 4500 is best for occupant,water and cargo and still capable to tow a scooter or a bike. But you can drive and park nearly everywhere even in town. The mpg also would suffer with a vehicle. A scooter/bike/bicycle is good enough for vacancy. If you stay at one location, you can rent a car to visit one day or two, same for the bike.

We looked at a unit with the dinette and sticker read CCC of 1112. While this sticker did NOT specify passenger or fresh water tank weight, they are typically considered cargo. (Fuel is not considered cargo). So one would need to subtract the passenger and fresh water weight from the CCC to get your “actual” cargo weight. Still, the CCC for many other Sprinter-based Class C’s (including View/Navion) are often 800 pounds or less.

@@thervhunter5808occc normally don’t include passenger and water. How can you say that? Except if the occc in the sticker is above 1700 lbs. If it is indicated only 1100 in the sticker, it mean your frame is too heavy, it take nearly all the additional GVWR. We want the 4500 chassis to have at least 1600/1700 lbs occc. We are two and a dog 447 lbs and occasionally 3 people and a dog 590 lbs and the water is probably 250 lbs (even if we don’t drive with full water). 1100-590-250=260 cargo left for the clothes and tools. It is not enough. The 4500 is supposed to provide 1095 lbs additional to the 700-900 lbs occc we have on a 3500 chassis. I understand Lineage want a stronger foundation but you cannot take the entire gvwr available…

Great video. Thanks for all of the information. You mentioned tray cup holders for the theater seats. Are those included with purchase? Also, do you include the booster seats when the cab seats are rotated? Do you have a sewer hose holder? Noticed when opening the back closet, the doors seem to drag along the top of the bed. Doesn’t seem there is enough room to add blankets, comforter, etc. Are you planning to increase the inverter up to a 2000 watt, or have you already made that change? Sorry for all of the questions, but we are very interested in possibly purchasing the Lineage.

I own a 2021 Revel and I prefer the durability and off-road performance of the true 4x4 over all wheel drive systems. However, the best possible design would have been a shift on the fly, like virtually every other 4x4 in the modern world. Why Sprinter can't deliver shift on the fly is unexplainable. As it is you have to stop, shift into neutral and shift into 4x4, which is at times even dangerous when on the highway/interstate and the weather turns bad.
