ON THE ROAD by Charles Renny
The Sprinter may be sold under the Dodge nameplate, but the maker is Mercedes-Benz.
As such the Sprinter has a definite European feel. It is the tallest and narrowest of the van
body styles. Handling is good as is resistance to side winds and passing semis. Ride quality is
firm and well controlled without being stiff or harsh.
The Sprinter is powered by a 3.0 litre diesel and mated to a five-speed electronically controlled
automatic transmission. At first glance, the relatively low horsepower rating would make the
Sprinter appear underpowered. This is not the case as diesel engines have high torque outputs
and it is really torque that gives acceleration. In this case, the Sprinter is aptly named as it can
move out with the best. The Sprinter is comfortable cruising at all legal speeds.
Standard chassis features include such items as stability control (adaptive so that it “learns’ how
the vehicle is loaded), tilt and height adjustable steering as well as 10,000 mile (16,000 km)
service intervals to name a few. One item that often gets short changed is the mirrors
and on the Sprinter, integrated wide-angle mirrors are standard.

Lexor

By

Adventurers, hit the scenic highways in the Pleasure-Way Lexor!

The attention to detail, inspired
design and 155-inch wheelbase make this motorhome feel more like a luxury automobile. Built on the Chevrolet
Express chassis, the nimble and responsive handling creates an enjoyable driving experience. Parking is a breeze
- even to an apprentice. Whether you are planning a quick weekend get-away or a cross-county excursion, the
Lexor is perfect for you.

F e a t u re s & B e n e f i t s
Refined Elegance…
Pleasure-Way is committed to quality and it shows – inside and out.
The interior of the Lexor is refined and elegant, with its molded wood
cabinetry, comfortable Ultra Leather® fabric seating, seamless Corian®
countertops, inlaid sinks, stainless steel appliances and recessed
halogen lighting. After a full day of exploring, sink into the
comfortable Ultra Leather® rear sofa and unwind.
F l e x i b l e B a t h r o o m w i t h M o r e…
Pleasure-Way’s flexible bathroom features more standard amenities
than any other bathroom of this style, including a beautiful Corian®
countertop, stainless steel sink and vanity with additional storage.
A medicine cabinet, Thetford china bowl toilet (with the largest
holding tank (12 gallon) available in a Class B standard body)
complete the package. The bathroom has more shoulder room than
most private bathrooms in a Class B standard body. In addition, the
unique, stand-up, temporary aisle shower allows you to shower
whenever you like and hygienically store the shower pan out of
the way when not in use. This eliminates the need for a dropped
center floor and the need to walk in the shower pan all day.
Sleek and Stealthy...
The Pleasure-Way Lexor exterior defines sleek and stealthy. By
cleverly concealing the 13,500 BTU exterior roof-top air conditioner,
the appearance of the Lexor more closely resembles a high-end,
streamlined travel van. Another advantage of the concealed roof-top
air conditioner, is that it provides greater headroom over the rear
sofa, as well as additional storage.
Two, Fo u r, Six…
Whether you are carrying six passengers, sleeping four, or it’s just
the two of you, the Pleasure-Way Lexor has a floor plan for you.
The steel-framed second row seats in our RL4 model conveniently
lay down to form single beds and all four front seats can swivel
to the rear, which offers theatre-style seating for you to watch
your favourite movie on the LCD swing-out flat screen TV.

ON THE ROAD by Charles Renny
Power for the GM version of this Class B Motorhome comes from the 6.0 L Vortec V8
and is mated to a four-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission. Frame construction
is a typical ladder style with two main, frame rails and various cross members.
The front suspension consists of a short/long arm (A-frame) set up with coil springs and shocks as
well as an anti-sway bar. In the rear are semi-elliptical, multi-leaf rear springs with shocks and a
semi-floating solid rear axle. All of this provides a cushy ride with a bit of float on the straights while
providing decent cornering.
Brakes are rather large discs up front and ones that are only slightly smaller in the rear. ABS
is standard. In addition, a tire pressure monitoring system is standard. Flat and convex mirrors, which
are standard, provide a great range of visibility around the motorhome.
Service intervals vary depending on the service required. Spark plugs are rated for 100,000 miles
while oil changes are slated for every 10,000 miles. This will vary with the type of driving you do
and the quality of fuel you use.

Finishing options

Full-timing RV Adventure in our

At Pleasure-Way, we believe in choices because we understand that everyone has different
tastes and desires. Therefore we have provided a number of options for you to choose from to
finish your vehicle to suit your individual needs and desires.

The allure of discovery, of adventure, is human — for we are adventurous people. We
all share this earth together and it is a very exciting place. Adventure or discovery add
a new dimension to our lives. It gives us purpose and ultimately, freedom and pleasure.
Thus began our 2-1/2 year adventurous journey in our HOME
on wheels… in the “IttyBittyRV”. This was freedom of less;
simplified, green living, all perfectly and pleasurably
packaged! Plus an eating/office area, king bed/lounge,
galley, head/shower, seating for 6, and even satellite TV.
Fuel efficient, well-built, solid construction and easy to drive
or park anywhere, one can’t ask for more!

Our simplified,
eco-footprint is not only
desirable, but achievable.
What we couldn’t use or keep in a 20’ vehicle went into
storage. We stored only what we would use within
6 months, such as seasonal clothing, photos, important
papers, etc. The rest, we sold or gave away.

So when we kept a picture of a RV on our refrigerator — you
know, what you plan or dream, visualize it — little did we
know how our dream of adventure would become reality!
We discovered our “vehicle of adventure” while visiting the
local McMahon’s RV Center. In less than 3 hours, we had
ordered and purchased our 20’ Pleasure-Way Ford TS, Van
Conversion Class B. It was manufactured and delivered in
just 3 weeks — all the way from the Pleasure-Way factory
in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. This company
is fantastic!
The closer was this: Pleasure-Way’s factory rep, Ted Passic,
just happened to be in the show vehicle, doing business on
his laptop at the “eating table/work station”! This was the
ultimate “show and tell” for full-time RVing.

24

Refining our space for full-timing is an evolution. In the
process, all that has been added for comfort and convenience
is in keeping with our simple and uncluttered concept. And,
“a place for everything… and everything in its place”, is our
mantra. We have found space for books, laptops, electronics
and cell phones. Originally not thought possible, we even
discovered how to configure work stations for two! The latest
wireless technology offers our own “hotspots” and is a
tremendous asset to the full-timing lifestyle. Adding a
generator and additional house power (batteries in tandem)
enabled dry-docking anywhere.
The amazing thing we have discovered is that we have
freedom from the desire to accumulate the “wants”. Simple
living is not deprivation but freedom from accumulation! Our
simplified, eco-footprint is not only desirable but achievable.
During this adventure, we are discovering the ultimate
enrichment and pleasure of new friendships and opportunities.
We encourage others to begin the adventure of less; of
simplified, green living. Our license plate holder states:
“Simplify… IttyBittyRV”.
