Overview
Meet Quinn (short for Quintessence) — our meticulously cared-for, professionally converted adventure van built for comfort, capability, and years of worry-free travel. Whether you’re chasing mountain passes, beach sunsets, or winter slopes in the Rockies, Quinn is ready for anything.
We’re parting with her only because of a change in life circumstances — our jobs are no longer remote. It’s bittersweet, as Quinn has been more than a van to us — she’s been our home. Over two years of full-time travel across the U.S., she’s carried us safely and comfortably through deserts, forests, and coastlines. Our deepest hope is that she finds a new owner who will love her as much as we have.
Quinn is currently in Phoenix, AZ, undergoing a comprehensive inspection by Papago Vans to prepare for resale. She has been serviced exclusively by Mercedes-Benz dealers, following the regular 20K and 40K Service A & B maintenance schedules, with routine DEF and Mercedes engine oil refills. In short — she’s been cared for by the book and is ready for her next adventure.
