In recent years, the concept of a mobile lifestyle has gained traction, thanks to advancements in technology that allow for the creation of incredible off-grid mobile homes. One such example is a custom camper van designed to serve as a full-time residence, offering all the comforts of home while on the road.
Crafted by Livable Vans, a specialized conversion company based in Newfane, Vermont, this modern marvel is built on a 2022 Ford Transit 350 AWD, Extended and High Roof platform. Powered by a 3.5-liter V6 gas engine paired with an automatic transmission, this van combines performance with efficiency, achieving approximately 16 MPG (almost 15 L/100km).
Exterior enhancements include Method rims wrapped in Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tires, an Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 air spring kit for adjustable ride height and increased comfort, and an AVC Rig roof rack equipped with 600 W Renogy solar panels and a WeBoost antenna. The roof also features a Dometic RTX A/C and a Maxxair fan for added convenience.
Step inside, and you’ll be greeted by a bright, modern interior custom-crafted by Livable Vans. Baltic birch wood cabinetry and a cherrywood tabletop create a warm and inviting atmosphere, while an open layout ensures seamless integration between the driver’s cabin and the living space.
The passenger’s seat can be swiveled to face the interior, providing flexibility and comfort. A Webasto heater, connected to the vehicle’s fuel tank, ensures warmth during colder months. Additionally, a spacious headliner shelf offers ample storage space.
Adjacent to the passenger’s seat, a thoughtfully designed bathroom features a Nautilus self-cleaning sliding door, a shower, a clothesline, and a Nature’s Head composting toilet. With generous dimensions, even taller individuals can comfortably utilize the bathroom.
The kitchen, split into two sections, boasts a butcher block countertop, a dual-burner induction stove with a cover that doubles as a backsplash, an Isotherm fridge/freezer, and a deep sink with filtered drinking water. Ample storage space is provided by numerous drawers and overhead cabinets, featuring gas struts and guard rails for added convenience and safety.
The lounge area/bedroom offers versatility, with two spacious benches forming a U-shape during the day and converting into a comfortable bed at night. Custom cushions upholstered in stain and fade-resistant Sunbrella fabric ensure both style and durability.
Underneath the benches, hidden storage compartments provide ample room for essentials, while an advanced electrical system, including BattleBorn batteries, a Victron inverter/charger, and a solar charge controller, ensures off-grid capabilities. Additionally, a garage space at the rear of the van offers storage for outdoor gear and supplies.
With its thoughtful design, modern amenities, and off-grid capabilities, this custom camper van from Livable Vans offers a comfortable and convenient lifestyle on the road. Priced at $169,300 (€157,732), this fully equipped van is ready for adventure and available for purchase to those seeking the ultimate mobile living experience.
