Ready for vanlife? You might just be looking at your next dream van! I can attest that it’s been one of the best experiences in my life!
I custom ordered this 4x4 Mercedes 144from Germany in 2018 and waited patiently for 9 months for it to arrive. Then I spent 4 months building the interior with the help of a master carpenter at his shop. Our long days and meticulous attention to detail paid off and soon I had my dream van!
The mileage is low, but the adventures were high. This van has been based in Las Vegas and has toured California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Colorado. I am the only owner and the title is clean. The build and adventures are documented on Instagram at OutsideLanes. Please have a look for yourself.
Here are the details: 2018 4x4. 20,490 miles. 144 (short) wheel base. High roof. Continental tires. Trailer hitch. Espar diesel heater under passenger seat. Swivel seats. Tinted windows. Two vent fans. 3 x 100 watts Renogy PV solar panels. Aims Power 3000 Watt 12V inverter. Victron MPPT 100/50 solar charge controller. 2 Renogy Deep Cycle Pure Gel Batteries 12 V 200 Ah. Custom welded, powdered coated solar rack. LED interior lights that can be dimmed. Bose sound bar. Engel Fridge drawer. A Yeti cooler till fit the drawer too. Electric cooktop. Sink and faucet. LED exterior light bar. Ample storage space under bed. Sliding drawer for outdoor grilling. Drivetrain, engine, brakes, tires always maintained and serviced regularly.
Similar to buying a home, I am sure you will want to remodel this van a bit and make it your own. I do recommend upgrading or replacing the batteries and electrical system. The sink was never connected because I ran out of time and energy. But it’s all there; ready to be connected. Because I think some remodels and upgrades are necessary, I am setting the price to be very fair to you. By saving a bit on the asking price, you can invest in the necessary upgrades to keep this van running for a very long time.
I am excited to have a conversation with you about my van and hope you are the next owner who will love it as much as I do.
