Hey all!
Joined a short time ago, but haven’t posted as I was using the forum for insight on class b travel and what we needed in the van. We are from Ohio, but I had barely travelled outside(even inside) the state prior to getting our van. We placed the order for the van in mid-2022 with lofty goals of “replicating” other manufactured class b vans, but better suited for my wants/our needs. The goal was to build an adventure companion that would support working my remote job, while leaving enough space for my partner, dog and bikes. The van has been an enormous amount of work, and of course it’s an on-going project! I’m very far in the process and besides the thousands of “finishing touches” there is nothing major left to complete.
We’ve been traveling in it part-time since November of 2023 and we are absolutely stoked on it. We’ve found our groove in taking 2-3 week trips where we sit still during the work week and exploring between locations close by over the weekend. The van had taken us as close by as 20 miles from home and as far as Key West. Seemingly being re-designed a little each trip we take, lol!
It’s a Ford Transit 350HD Crew Van with the EcoBoost, DRW and AWD. It drives well and we are excited for the place it’s taking us. Here is a glimpse into the current state of affairs and look forward to sharing more!
