Re: Wireless Air Pressure & Temperature Tire Monitor.

We have the same product for our Suburban and trailer. The product has some issues when used on two separate vehicles but it does work as advertised - that is, it measures pressure and temperature. Yes, both parameters vary based on the location of the tire - in the sun, in the shaded side of the ve...

Re: What is the max hours 2800 is good for?

Good question. The generator on the B190 we sold recently had less than 100 hours. We didn't hesitate to use the generator but we never used it for more than a few hours at a time - not by design, just happened that way. If I can remember to call the Onan/Cummins dealer next week I'll ask him what h...

Re: 1999 34k Miles for sale on eBay :-)

Anyone see what the winning bid was for this van? The auction ended at $22,200 and the reserve was not met. On the surface that means the van did not sell. I'm not sure of all the eBay rules - I think the seller has the option to reconsider whether they're willing to accept the highest bid. I'm sti...

Re: 1999 34k Miles for sale on eBay :-)

Hmm... don't know what happened but the seller has re-listed this van for sale. I guess that means the previous deal didn't go through for some reason. The current bid is $9,300 with 4+ days remaining in the auction. Once again, the reserve has not been met.

Re: 1999 34k Miles for sale on eBay :-)

nvestysly what do you think this particular B190 on Ebay is worth? I tend to agree with you that 25K is a lot to pay for any camper van, especially one that is 17 year old. Should it be closer to 20K? I'm just trying to understand the value of these vehicles for my own education. I bought the 1999 ...

Re: 1999 34k Miles for sale on eBay :-)

There are just under two days remaining on the auction for this 1999 B190 and the price is up to $24,999 and the reserve has not been met. Somehow that surprises me. Yes, it's a low mileage vehicle and appears to be in very good condition. However, it is just a camper van. If it had less than 1000 m...

3-week, 3,000+ Mile Trip

We just returned from an extensive trip in our B-190. Had a blast and would recommend this type of vacation for anyone that can spend the time. We specifically planned this trip around the attributes of a Class B (or perhaps small Class C) motorhome. We didn't tow anything behind us. We wanted the f...

Re: 1999 34k Miles for sale on eBay :-)

I looked at the eBay listing for the van. Looks like the seller did a good job describing the vehicle and including plenty of pictures to show the condition. As of today (Thursday 5/12/2016) the current bid is $11,100 and the reserve has not been met. I'll be curious to watch this auction and see th...

Re: Rallies and Other Events?

Resurrecting this old thread... The idea of attending the WBCCI International in Lewisburg, WV came up at one point. Any B190 owners planning to attend in their van? We are interested in meeting other van owners in advance, and driving in together, if anyone else is attending. Otherwise, we're plann...
