Description

Welcome to ThisMustBeTheVan—a fully custom build on the Mercedes-Benz 170″ EXTENDED wheelbase, offering spacious, full-time living without sacrificing vanlife mobility. She was built with luxury and comfort in mind featuring marble backsplashes, custom slat wall, a full bathroom/shower space, and an optimized ventilation system for cool, restful nights.
