Sierra One is for sale! Original owner and builder. To answer a common question, YES you can purchase it without some of the items, I will discount the purchase price accordingly (i.e. no rear seats drops the price $3000, etc.)
It has active registration as a Camper Van in California, so many RV loan options will work. We have already purchased our next 2.0 van, so we hope this sale goes to a great buyer ready for tons of adventure. This is a great van that was built for our family of 4 and adventure pup and has been used lovingly for the last three years. We purchased the van new in 2020 and developed the design and did the vast majority of the build, with a few big items being professionally installed where needed (specifically the A/C, electrical consult, seating, most maintenance, etc.). The perk of this modular design is the ability to have a turn key unit ready for adventure, or to make it as you desire based on the adventure. Seats and rear cabinets are able to be moved around, or removed to create more space, additional items can be added as desired with integrated L-Track.
Spec sheets aside, our absolute favorite parts of Sierra One are the rear 360 swivel seats, convertible dinette/bed, toilet, the ability to run the A/C and Heat off of the huge battery bank without, and the lifted All Wheel Drive Off-Road (trust us, we’ve tested it) capability of the van. This puppy is a great daily driver, and an adventure beast.
