Seller's Description
I am the second caretaker of this van. The previous owner did the build to maximize function. He lived and worked remotely in the vehicle for almost two years.. The van drives well on streets, freeways and dirt roads. It gets 16 miles per gallon. With its high roof and extended length there is ample space to travel comfortably. Being able to stand up instead of crouching has made a difference. The van opens from two rear doors and from a sliding side door. The sitting benches become the sleeping area (6’ long and 5' 2” across) with the flip of a hinged plank. The mattress (from the original owner) we currently use is memory foam with a thin plywood backing on one side. The mattress is in three pieces (for bench cushions). Two people can sleep very comfortably on the converted bed. A lockable door between the cab and living area adds security. There is lots of storage with overhead bins, under bench slots and kitchen cabinets. A taller closet fits the portable toilet, clothing and extras needed for the trips. On one side of the kitchen area is a sink with an electric pump providing water from a 10 gallon freshwater tank. Wastewater is diverted to a 5 gallon tank with a spigot under the van for draining. A Dometic fridge is below the sink. On the opposite side of the sink is the propane stove with two burners and extra counter space. I use a portable rechargeable AC if I am going somewhere warmer. Integrated solar panels coupled with the engine alternator generate the power for the vehicle. I have added a shore power option for plug-in on the side of the van. With both 12v and 120v as power options electronic devices and small appliances can be used. I redid the electrical wiring and also installed a power monitor to track how much energy different devices use. The van has 4 new tires and the brakes were replaced before purchase. Maintenance is up to date. I have listed other features below: -ecoboost engine provides extra power at higher altitudes -airlifts are installed for better suspension -insulated except for the sliding door and rear doors (for now) -two 100 watt solar panels -two 155 amp 12v deep cycle batteries -40 amp solar charger controller -converter with 120 volt system panel -3000 watt pure sine wave power inverter -65 watt Dometic fridge -smart battery isolator -fuse protection for all electrical components -electric junction box -blue tooth speakers I did not install a shower and toilet when I bought the van because of the complexity and weight. I have portable options that are fine for what I need. There is room on the roof for a small storage rack if you need extra space. Feel free to contact me if you have other questions.
