Ready to start your van-life adventure with a comfortable, reliable, well-built vehicle?
This van comes equipped with everything you need to hit the road; refer to the following list of topics discussed in this post:
1.
Van engine and related
Previous owners from two years ago were both mechanics so the van’s engine is in tip top shape.
Refer to the video in the post to hear the engine start up.
There is absolutely no knocking, whining, or otherwise suspicious sounds in the van.
In my opinion this is one of the defining features of this van, if you want something that will serve you well on the road, you are in luck with this van.
130,583 miles
V8 engine: I’ve had no problem driving up mountains and through long trips.
35-gallon fuel tank: fill up with cheap gas when you find it, and don’t worry about refueling for a while
Battery is less than two years old
No oil leak at all under the van (my mechanic reported it is one of the cleanest under-vehicles he’s seen of an automobile from the early 2000’s)
There is some superficial damage throughout the van body including peeling of the clearcoat and some paint chipping on the fiberglass topper.
Nothing that can’t be easily repaired.

3.
Electrical
The solar system was built to exceed the capacity of normal usage; in other words, I always had excess energy in the battery, even in the winter.
Speaking of the battery, I bought a very high-quality battery that does not require complicated maintenance.
-2 100 watt roof mounted solar panel
-1100 watt Power inverter
-Ampere Time 12V 100Ah, 1280Wh Lithium Battery
