Camper vans are known for their versatility, but the Sprinter converted by Mango Vans takes versatility to a whole new level. Designed to accommodate professionally trained K9 units, this off-grid-capable camper boasts a sleek black exterior and a practical yet minimalist interior. Let’s explore the unique features of this specialized camper built for adventure and functionality.
Exterior Features:
Finished in striking black paint, the Sprinter features Owl Vans Talon bronze rims and BFGoodrich KO2 all-terrain tires for rugged off-road capabilities. The front is equipped with an Owl Vans Pismo bumper and a Warn winch, while the rear includes an Owl Vans ladder/spare tire carrier and a Sherpa carrier. Up top, a BajaRack holds a Fiamma F45S awning and a StarLikk antenna, completing the off-grid setup.
Interior Design:
Inside, the camper maintains the dark aesthetic with black finishes and minimalist accents. The open layout ensures seamless transition from the driver’s cabin to the living space, while still accommodating the needs of K9 units. The galley features an Acacia live-edge butcher block countertop and a black ceramic sink, along with ample storage in overhead cabinets and under-counter cabinets.
Bedroom and Garage:
The bedroom area is equipped with an Adventure Wagon MOAB bed mounted on L-Traks, offering flexibility for sleeping arrangements. Underneath the bed, the garage provides storage space accessible from both inside and outside the van, housing two kennels for K9 units. This versatile setup ensures comfort and convenience for both human and canine occupants.
Off-Grid Capabilities:
Mango Vans prioritizes off-grid capabilities, with the camper featuring a robust electrical system powered by Victron MultiPlus inverter/charger and BattleBorn batteries. While solar panels are not included, the system is designed to run the air conditioning for several hours, making it suitable for extended off-grid adventures.
