Want to escape the city for a weekend? Coming to Los Angeles and want to explore Joshua Tree or Big Sur? This Dodge Promaster has everything you might want for complete off-grid living. Powered by solar and two lithium batteries, there's never any reason to "plug in". Enjoy a hot shower after a long hike or make a gourmet meal in the oven and three-burner stove stop. The 25 gallon fresh-water tank is enough to last up to five days, depending on how much water you use. The cassette toilet is also available for convenience.
It is also equipped with everything you might need if you do want to "plug in" (fresh water hose with filter, 30 amp cable or standard cable with converter).
The bed is an RV full size with a memory foam topper and a super cozy down comforter for those chilly nights. The heater is powered from the gas tank with digital control system and the ceiling is equipped with a remote controlled Maxair fan with two additional fans included.It is incredibly easy to drive, fits into regular parking spots, and it gets approximately 16 mpg, so you don't have to break the bank filling it with gas.I lived and travelled full time in this van for 6 months and spent most of the time off-grid without every needing to be in overpopulated campgrounds. I'm more than happy to share all of my tips and tricks.***This VAN IS Available FOR Rental IN Kalispell, Montana FOR THE Month OF June AND JulyWhat's included• 2 outdoor chairs

The van was easy to drive and Danielle explained everything clearly. I would definitely rent from her in the future

Danielle is the perfect host! The van has everything necessary! No need to hook up at all! We would just wake up and head to a parking area and cook breakfast in the van before heading out for a day of hiking! Dan the van fits everywhere you need to go! We absolutely loved this very efficient way of travelling both the east and west sides of the Going to the Sun Road! It is not necessary to overthink this. Danielle has thought of everything!

Danielle is a Superhost

Superhosts are highly-rated and experienced, ensuring you have a fantastic outdoor experience.

Born and raised in Montana, I've spent my adult life traveling. I've lived in 7 different countries but currently call Los Angeles home. I am a high school teacher by trade so I have summers free to roam the country in the van and even took a year off to travel all over with my two dogs and two cats. I built this van so I'm extremely knowledgeable about its capabilities and nuances, so feel free to ask any questions.
