Popular Post El Presidente Posted January 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2019 What I love about this van conversion is that you could let your mind go nuts. Mobile Humidor/Bar.

Derboesekoenig Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 That's a really cool mobile workshop. I just could never justify that unless my profession involved something along those lines or made my job easier. Still cool nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoeFOH Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 One of these kitted out for travelling/sleeping/camping type thing would be brilliant. A Bruce Springsteen lyric comes to mind... I went out for a ride drive and I never went back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some truly badass little campers out there, extremely lightweight, and cheap as well. Much more economical than the van, I'm sure. Some are so light, they can be pulled by just about anything too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to their own. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Van conversions are so common these days. I just ordered a new Mercedes Sprinter for work, and I was told about 30% of all sales (at this dealership) were for conversion into campers, and another 15% into mobile office/workshop.

Would not have thought stats were that high. Good to know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey nomads and motocross comp riders seem to be the biggest buyers. I had to get a new security barrier installed in my old Transit van, and the company that did the job told me they had a 6 month backlog of people wanting to convert vans into campers. Good thing is, you don't need to upgrade your licence to drive it (like those big motorhomes), and if you need more storage space, just tow a trailer. A Merc Sprinter 416 has a 2 metric ton load capacity, so you can fit out the back with a helluva lot of stuff. Go for a long wheelbase 419 (same size as an ambulance) and travel in luxury.
