Professionally upfitted in 2019 by American Vanworks and thoughtfully upgraded since, this van offers the capability, functionality, and premium systems found in many modern $250K+ 170” wheelbase builds, at a significantly lower price point.

Since the original build, we have continued improving the van in partnership with professional Colorado van outfitters, with a focus on reliability, four-season capability, suspension performance, off-grid power, and real-world family usability. No expense was spared in creating a proven and highly capable adventure platform designed to perform in demanding Colorado winter conditions.

The van has been used regularly, not stored away. It has taken our family of four everywhere from ski resort parking lots and remote winter camping to summer mountain trips, trailheads, and high alpine adventures throughout Colorado and the western U.S.

Located in Denver, Colorado.

If this listing is active, the van is still available. Serious inquiries only please and happy to answer any questions or schedule a call.
