2012 Freightliner Sprinter 2WD

“Big Blue” – Fully Converted All-Season Sprinter Van – Priced to Move

Life threw us a curve ball, and it’s time to let go of our beloved van. Between wife’s recent heart attack and recovery and a move that is forcing us to make, we just won’t be hitting the road like we used to anymore. So we’re pricing Big Blue at an affordable price for her next family — she’s ready for new adventures.

Meet Big Blue:

1. 2012 Mercedes Sprinter 3500 (dually, extended — the largest Sprinter you can buy). Incredibly stable & drives like a dream
2. 170,000 miles
3. Located in Portland, Oregon

This van was originally converted by a family in Texas, then dialed in by Van Specialties in Tualatin, Oregon — real pros. She’s been lovingly maintained by Pro Automotive & Diesel near Portland. Mechanically sound and road-trip ready.

🔧 Mechanical & Power Highlights:

1. 360Ah LifePo battery bank + 300W solar panels
2. DC-DC (alternator) charging, shore power plug-in, 3000W inverter = power for days & you always have charging options
3. Major suspension upgrade just a couple of thousand miles ago
4. Tires have ~15k miles
5. Only quirk: fast left blinker flash due to one pesky bulb; all lights still work perfectly

🛋️ Comfort & Storage:

1. Diesel heater + 2x MaxxAir fans = year-round comfort
2. 25 gal fresh water + 5 gal hot water heater + outdoor shower
3. Refrigerator & freezer – runs off DC power (very low draw)
4. Farm sink in the kitchen with hot & cold water
5. Two-burner induction stove
6. Multi-zone LEDs – running off DC / low power draw
7. Queen bed platform, currently with a full size mattress – allowing storage on either side of bed
8. 36” garage clearance below – store your bikes with only removal of front wheel
9. Bench seating with Lagun table
10. Tons of built-in storage including a hanging closet
11. Passenger-side CR Lawrence window
12. Upgraded touch-screen stereo + rearview camera
13. Wood paneling, butcher block counters, tile backsplash

We expected to keep Big Blue for years, so we spared no expense maintaining her for the long haul. Water pump, alternator, and turbo all proactively replaced. A M-B recall replaced the full exhaust system. Oil changed every 5k miles. She’s solid, reliable, and ready for your next road trip or full-time vanlife.

Come meet Big Blue in Portland. We’re motivated to sell — make us an offer.
