You could reduce some rear overhang in the cabover model. Since there will be a dedicated sleeping area, the dinette doesn't have to be so big. Perhaps eliminate the back portion of the U-shaped dinette and chop a foot or two off the overall length in the rear.
Combine that with the mixed use...
I really like the 'wet room' style entryway on the earthcruiser. It seems like it would save some floor space and open the place up a bit. Taking off muddy/dusty shoes in an area that could be hosed down later sounds good as well.
XP camper also has a trick fold down bathroom to save space...
That's my van!
I've driven the van from San Diego to vegas and my impressions are as follows: blown away!
Beyond the increased ground clearance that I really needed for the trails around vegas, I got a really smooth ride off pavement. I was previously equipped with a leveling kit which...
Can't help, but I have the same questions myself. I see them installed on sprinters, custom expedition rigs, and euro RVs. I wonder if the curvature of the econoline walls will pose an issue.
Luthj, thanks for the build thread and ideas. Unlike you, I'm not gifted with the virtue of patience. I'd rage quit pretty quick.
I wonder if it be faster to weld one up and attach it to the side of the van? It won't look as slick as the fiberglass molded version, but hell, it's a used...
As a 5'11" human, laying width-wise in my e-250 campervan doesn't work without contortion. I see the sprinter gang has mitigated this issue with pods or flares thru vanspecialties and flarespace.
Has anyone attempted to either create, or fit one of these flares to their ford van?
Thanks in...
I love this layout.
I'm wondering if it'd be feasible in an extended e-250 high top...
Perhaps if the rear was widened a bit the way some sprinter vans utilize 'pods' or 'flares'.
Really motivated by that bigfoot! Looks great, you should do a video for it.
I've dreamed of picking up a nice chinook concourse and getting it converted to 4wd thru ujoint.
Are duallys more of a con than a pro? All I've heard are bad things about debris getting stuck between the duals and...
I've decided that I will go the earthcruiser route in the future as my home on wheels. When factoring my budget, I left out one thing: insurance.
With the sticker price as much as these babies are, how much do you estimate it costs to insure one?
