Title: MBZ adventure van
Post by: Rasputin on December 03, 2023, 02:26:43
Around here people are building MBZ Sprinter vans like there is an apocalypse  coming .

They are spending small fortunes on these adventure vans

I’d say if they did an MBZ based one they could get that crowds attention

It’s similar to what people in the UK do to riverboats . They convert a vehicle into a Mobil home

In our area we have millions of acres of wilderness and encourage exploration

They made this one but it’s based on an old American van

They can base it on this van

Replace the roof with a high top and add all the accessories

Geobra made these but they are a different class of adventure rigs and uncommon

These are typically made out of decommissioned military rigs

The Vans are repurposed commercial delivery vehicles

In the US when I hear Gypsy caravan I think of these

I’ve been waiting for Geobra to make a proper classically designed version and was quite hopeful when they released the novelmore wagon

Unfortunately it’s heavy on the fantasy design and colored and not easily adapted to fit in with the western theme
