Unique DIY Build 2021(Fully, Fine-Finished) – Bavarian-farmhouse/Bee-Hive/Steam-Punk/Nautical themes.
~ Why I’m Selling my Baby: I have lived out of my van off-and-on for 3 years now(mostly in Colorado and Washington state). My partner and I, plus our 75lb Goldendoodle have lived and worked out of this for the past year in Fort Collins, CO. We both have stationary jobs in healthcare, here. So, I am selling my pandemic project to help fund the next chapter of our lives and paying off Medical School debt. I’ve spruced it up with all the additions that I wish I had when I owned it, so the next owner can really enjoy their purchase and new adventure home. Hoping to find someone that will treat it well and get the most out of it. I bought the diesel because of its ability to haul A LOT of weight while maintaining fuel economy, and they typically last well-over 300K miles when well-maintained. I am happy to give you a super thorough run-through if you’re truly interested! ~
“While diesel is more expensive to maintain, it typically lives another 200,000 miles than its gas counterpart, which could be another 5-10 years, depending on how often you use your conversion. In addition, the service interval for the Sprinter diesel engine is 20,000 miles while gas is 15,000 miles.” –
