🚐 FOR SALE: 2016 RAM ProMaster 3500 159 High Roof Camper Van – Functional Build & Adventure-Ready
$17,000
For about 200k of this van’s 242k miles it was a wine delivery van in Wisconsin, at which point I bought it from a dealership and built out what you see over time. I focused on a basic build with solid components and functionality, making this van ready to go and set up for you to do any finishing touches to make it your own! I love this van and am thankful for the places it’s taken me but it sits in the driveway too much these days and it is ready for a new home and new adventures! I have worked remotely extensively from this van and it has everything needed to work and charge electronics, boost cell signal, and sneak out for a lunch bike ride with all your bikes in the garage area.
Vehicle Details:
Although this car has 242k, it has never let me down or left me stranded. Since owning it I’ve performed every service at the specified interval at a RAM dealership. There are some quirks like the sliding door dent (works fine) and a left turn signal that doesn’t cancel without a little help from you, but overall I have done my best to ensure this van runs well and is mechanically sound. I believe in being honest and up front about this van and its condition, so please ask away if you have any questions!
