1998 Roadtrek 170 Popular Dodge Ram 3500 Major Maintenance Completed Road Ready
Price: $21,999 or Best Offer Location: Arvada, Colorado Contact: abtonw@gmail.com
Overview
This well maintained 1998 Roadtrek 170 Popular is built on the reliable Dodge Ram 3500 chassis with the Magnum 5.2L (318) V8 engine. At only 17 feet long, it is easy to drive, easy to park, and fits in a standard parking space. The van is fully functional, mechanically solid, and ready for travel. It has been actively used, not sitting, and has had major mechanical work already completed.
Recent Trip (August 2026)
In August 2026, we completed a long multi state trip with no issues. We drove from Colorado to Washington, then down the Oregon coast, and back home to Colorado. The van performed flawlessly the entire way. This is a true road ready Roadtrek that has been recently driven and tested on real miles.

Major Maintenance Completed
This Roadtrek has had extensive mechanical work done, including major preventative maintenance that most older Class B vans need but rarely have documented.
Recent Work (2026): New engine battery (7/6/2026) Front wheel bearings replaced Fuel filler hose replaced Brake fluid flush Engine air filter replaced Full health inspection at Bachmans ($1,711) on 7/16/2026
Major Mechanical Overhaul (3/5/2021 $4,849): Oil leak repair Main bearing oil seal Timing cover and gasket Spark plugs Valve cover gasket Shock and strut assembly replacement Additional diagnostic and maintenance work
This is thousands of dollars of preventative maintenance already completed.
