Adventure Vehicle advice for a growing family?

There are a number of conversion companies that sell seats / bed systems. This is one that is local to me but do ship.

Folding Seats and Expanding Beds

Folding seat beds, expanding beds, and fold-down beds.

This might help you get another year or two out your van (this is all predicated on being able to turn your front seats 180 degrees):

Cabbunk - a new and inventive way to add two extra childbeds to your swivel seat motorhome. Fiat Ducato, Renault Master, New Ford Transit, Ford Transit Custom, VW T5, VW T6, Mercedes Vito, Mercedes Sprinter

Your van name... you from the New England area?

Yes, but the name is a Phish reference

UPDATE. I bought a Conqueror UEV 490. Got a great deal on a 2022. Now I need something to tow it. We have a Grand Cherokee L but that won't take us all the places the camper itself can get to. In the market for a Power Wagon. Dragging my heels on getting the van ready for sale.

Wish us luck.

Awesome! I bet the Conqueror and PW will be a great combination and hope it works great for your family.

I’ll be watching for the sale ad on the van. 😉

Curious how you like the 490. Had one in our town for sale. Looked at it more out of curiosity setup up time space etc.

I've seen it on the showroom floor but still have yet to use it in the world at large. Its really solidly built, cant fake that. It checked almost all our boxes and I know it will physically fit my wife and I + our 3 kiddos for at least 10 years. Heard overall only good things through my extensive research. Super psyched for the double awnings/enclosure situation. I will post trip reports as soon as we get it out there.
