Seller's Description

“Look for the bare necessities of life”…his name is Baloo and he’s a gorgeous blue color Mercedes Metris professionally upfitted campervan that fits in your garage. He can function as a daily driver with outstanding gas mileage; a weekend warrior; or as an extended road trip adventurer. Baloo was built by the Oregon-based certified Mercedes-Benz Upfitter, Keystone Coachworks. If you happen to live in Oregon, the customer service at Keystone is outstanding! As you can see from the pictures and video, we have taken pristine care of Baloo and he has afforded us countless adventures and even contributed to maintaining our sanity during this COVID pandemic. As convenient, agile and efficient as he is we’re looking to purchase another RV that doesn’t require us to pop the top and make the bed every night.

Four adults can sit comfortably around the table for dinner or games. Kitchenette Design: --Dining table is stored behind the bench seat. There is a swivel mount attached to the seat face for the table leg to mount to. This allows the table to move along with the seat so that it is usable at any location. --European hinges for smooth operation along with push button latches that are flush when locked keep the cabinet lines very clean. --5-gallon Fresh water tank; On demand water pump with inline filter.

Hill start assist Spare wheel with jack and tool kit Blind spot monitoring Incredible all-around visibility Unbelievable turn radius Existing wear: 2 small holes in the SCA 150 canvas that have been repaired using the manufacturer suggested repair kit. This happened during Baloo’s maiden voyage indicating that the canvas needs to be protected from the metal latches. Since then, I make sure that I place rubber protectors between the metal pieces of the pop top and the canvas material. (see pictures) Small scratch on solar panel (see picture) that has been sealed and does not affect the functionality of the solar power system. This too happened early on when I inadvertently opened the garage door when the pop top was deployed.
