Rugged and capable of exploring all of the amazing destinations Montana has to offer, this front wheel drive van built on the Promaster chassis is extremely easy to drive. It is a basic but capable camper van originally built by Outside Van. It has great clearance for a van and comes with oversized all terrain tires. It won't rock crawl, but PNW forest service roads are no problem at all. It is going on 10 years old now, but we pride ourselves on keeping the maintenance impeccably up to date. For winter rentals, the van includes a set of studded Nokian tires. The Baja Designs light bar will make any back road in Montana like daylight. Full time video rear view mirror makes navigating parking lots and traffic easy as pie. The stereo has been upgraded to touch screen unit with apple car play/android auto to make navigation a breeze.This van is ideal for a solo or couple traveler(s) with two captain's chairs upfront and a full-sized memory foam bed in the back. The marine-grade propane heater will keep you toasty overnight and the overhead fan and additional vent help keep fresh air moving during the day.The 45 liter Dometic fridge runs full-time off of the Goal Zero Yeti battery and has plenty of space for food and those oh-so-important post-activity refreshments. The Goal Zero battery bank charges off of solar and the van when running. Having a coffee in the morning with the included Nespresso machine and milk frother. Cook yourself a nice camp meal with the included two-burner Coleman stove and clean up after easily with 6-gallons of fresh running water. Underneath the bed is plenty of storage for all types of gear. It also has a Rockymounts van tray to carry up to three bikes with fork mounts. Includes a bike stand which mounts to the back ladder as well. There is a large batwing style awning which triples your covered space.Every rental includes clean bedding as well as everything you need to cook your own meals.The short wheelbase makes this van is very easy to drive in town and on rural roads; you'll comfortably fit into parking spaces and be able to navigate tight switchbacks. Highway MPGs average around 16-17 MPG (@65-70 MPH).*Please note that the included daily mileage (100 miles) is per night booked. Example: a six day, 5 night trip would include 500 miles before overages occur*Please reach out if you have any questions or would like to see more pictures!Most of our guests take the van to Glacier, and it is ideal for that purpose. If you are cyclists coming to Montana to ride, let us know and we can even arrange storage for bike bags/boxes or provide needed tools.
