    This is the ultimate adventure/race van! The van is designed and equipped to haul two full size sport bikes. The concept was to have an electric bed hoist to allow easy access to the bikes in the up position, be able to sleep on the road with the bikes loaded in the mid position and enjoy maximum comfort at the track after bikes are unloaded in the down position. Stealth look has allowed me to camp just about anywhere. The best part is the Van gets 22-23 MPG! Solar will run fridge, led lights and charge phones for a long weekend and most times indefinitely if you park in a sunny spot. I stay all weekend at the race track and never plug my van in (unless of course I need to run the A/C). 9'2" total height, 20'9" long

    Here is a list of mods to the van.

    HappiJac Electric Bed lift
    12' Fiamma Awning (just added a few weeks ago)
    Renogy 200w Solar Panel System and Charger
    4 Trojan Golf cart batteries with custom under mount battery box (420amp hrs)
    60 amp Battery to Batter Charger (charges you up anytime the van is running)
    30 Amp External Plug
    Norcold Large Fridge/Freezer (electric sealed compressor)
    Convection Microwave/oven
    2000w MagnaSine Pure Sine Inverter/charger with remote control head and BMK battery monitor
    Roof mount 13k A/C
    Electric Roof vent
    Propane Furnace
    Under mounted propane tank
    Short Queen Mattress with Foam Sleep Pad
    Mult USB ports/120v outlets
    Led Lights
    Roll in Bed Liner in cargo area and entire floor
    Electric Liqueur dispenser
    Swivel front seat
    Rear Passenger Seat
    Sliding door window with vent
    Entire van insulated with automotive thinsulate, foam and polyiso board
    Class 2 trailer hitch


    I am building a new home and I considering selling the van. Please contact me with questions and I can give much greater detail and send more pictures detailing the build. Van still needs some trim work. Cabinet doors will be installed next week.

    Thanks!

    Located in South East WI.

    Holy crap, that is so awesome! That really is the ultimate track day/race weekend rig for someone that just has 1 or 2 bikes. I dare not ask how much you're asking for it though :)

    The Electric Liqueur dispenser alone is worth 50k

    Certainly not in my price range - but I am 100% jealous. If you have any other photos / build specs / or lessons learned, I'd love to have my own some day, but can't fork out that type of cash right now. Did you do the whole build yourself?
