“Basecamp” Sprinter 3500

It was designed to maximize the living space by featuring an XL table that has seated 5 people (6 if you have a foldable camp chair), long kitchen countertop, and a padded countertop for heavy duty items/appliances. My partner and I can cook in the kitchen and have 3 people seated at the table comfortably, ideal for late nights or rainy days.

The rooftop deck is meant to be an extra living space so it’s made from the same composite wood as outdoor patios. Its a beautiful view and a great place to watch the sunset.

Other Notes

1. I have put only 11,000 miles on the vehicle, almost all highway on long trips up the west coast
2. It is a rare super single, meaning it is an alternative to a dually (4 wheels in the rear). Thus it has larger wheels in the rear than the front. It was designed for heavy loads and if the load does not exceed the tire’s max weight, it can tow a significant amount.
3. I outfitted it with mud terrain tires to give it a smoother ride quality than stock road tires. The difference was extremely noticeable and the tires help a ton on dirt roads.
4. Motor oil and filter were just changed and DEF fluid was just topped off.
5. I can send more photos upon request. Only able upload 10.
