The perfect minimalistic van for a solo traveler, especially if your co-pilot is a dog!
This van was self converted and suitable for short term off-grid adventures. This van is in excellent mechanical shape and has many years and miles to go. Sprinters are known for being very reliable and it is not unheard of for them to still be going strong for 450,000+ miles (some say up to a million!)
Over the past year and a half, I have driven this van cross county 4 times and have had no mechanical issues. It is super easy to drive and park in normal sized spaces.
The van was used as an electrical supply company vehicle most of her life, which means the company had to keep up on routine maintenance over the years and most mileage was racked up on the highway.
Whether you are a weekend warrior or want to use it for cross country road trips with you dog, this van has everything you need to go adventuring in style!
Selling because I am leaving #vanlife for #buslife. Want to sell her quickly so I can get back on the road in my new rig! More photos and information available by request. :)
