Autumn in the Midwest is unlike any other season. The air is crisp, the leaves turn brilliant shades of red and gold, and the harvest brings festivals, tailgating, and cozy weekends away. If you’re an RVer in Chicagoland, there’s no better way to enjoy this time of year than in a Coachmen Prism Class C motorhome.

Built on the reliable Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Cutaway chassis, the Prism is a compact yet luxurious RV that combines drivability with upscale comforts. And now, with exciting updates from Coachmen, the Prism is more appealing than ever for families, couples, or solo travelers looking to make the most of the fall season.

The Class C motorhome category has always been popular among RVers for its balance of comfort, size, and ease of use. Unlike larger Class A motorhomes, the Prism is nimble and easy to handle, but it still offers plenty of living space for longer trips.

Here are the latest updates that make the Prism a true standout:

Long gone are the days of stiff RV seating. The Prism now features power dual recliners, giving you the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. Picture yourself sipping hot cider in front of the TV while the autumn wind howls outside—comfort doesn’t get better than this.

The kitchen is at the heart of any RV, and the Prism takes it seriously. The solid-surface countertops aren’t just attractive—they’re durable and practical. Whether you’re prepping chili for a football tailgate, chopping fresh apples from a local orchard, or setting up a quick breakfast before hitting the road, these countertops stand up to real use.

Fall nights in Illinois, Wisconsin, and across the Midwest can get chilly. The Prism’s tankless water heater ensures that you’ll always have hot water on demand—perfect for long, steamy showers after a brisk hike or when washing dishes after a hearty autumn meal.

Customization is key, and Coachmen delivers with Select and Elite trim packages. Whether you want a functional, stylish setup or prefer top-of-the-line finishes and extra luxury, there’s a Prism that fits your lifestyle.

One of the most important foundations of the Coachmen Prism is its Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Cutaway chassis. This isn’t just about brand prestige—it’s about performance, safety, and efficiency.

• Fuel Efficiency: The Sprinter is known for delivering better fuel economy than many other motorhome platforms. This means longer drives between fill-ups, which is especially useful for road trips to see the fall foliage.
• Maneuverability: Navigating Chicagoland’s highways, suburban streets, or winding country roads is much easier with the Sprinter’s smooth handling and compact footprint.
• Safety Features: Mercedes-Benz equips its chassis with advanced safety technology, including stability control, collision prevention systems, and adaptive cruise control, making it ideal for both new and seasoned RV drivers.
• Reliability: Known for durability, the Sprinter chassis gives you the confidence to explore without worry, whether you’re venturing north to Wisconsin’s Door County or downstate to Shawnee National Forest.

Fall is one of the best seasons for RVing in the Midwest. Here’s why the Coachmen Prism is your ideal companion:

Comfort in Cool Weather

The Prism’s climate control and tankless water system mean you’ll stay warm and comfortable no matter how chilly the nights get. Plus, the power recliners and cozy interiors provide the perfect retreat when the temperature dips.

Compact but Spacious

At a size that balances drivability with living space, the Prism is small enough to park at festivals or state parks but roomy enough to sleep your family comfortably. It’s a perfect middle ground for Chicagoland travelers who don’t want the stress of maneuvering a massive RV.

Tailgating Ready

Football season and RVs go hand in hand. The Prism’s kitchen, seating, and entertainment systems make it an excellent mobile basecamp for Chicago Bears games or local college matchups.

Scenic Road Trips

Illinois and its surrounding states boast some of the best fall foliage in the country. From the Great River Road along the Mississippi to Indiana’s Brown County State Park, the Prism makes it easy to take weekend road trips in style.

If you’re wondering where to take your new Prism this fall, here are a few ideas perfect for Chicagoland adventurers:

• Starved Rock State Park (IL): Just a short drive from Chicago, this park offers stunning canyons, waterfalls, and fall colors that are second to none.
• Lake Geneva (WI): Perfect for a cozy weekend escape, with lakeside walks, fall festivals, and charming shops.
• Door County (WI): Known as the “Cape Cod of the Midwest,” this peninsula is a fall wonderland with orchards, lighthouses, and brilliant autumn leaves.
• Michigan’s Upper Peninsula: If you’re up for a longer trip, the UP is a bucket-list fall destination with rugged beauty, crisp weather, and fewer crowds.
