Ran into Stormlover again this weekend in Flagstaff, he shamed me into posting a brief update. So far this season, we have spent about 15 nights in the rig, chasing snow in Flagstaff, Durango, and in Taos, hitting powder on every trip. Pictures taken during this period? Zero, I'm skiing dammit! So, with some prodding, here are a couple pics of the rig in its proper environment, last morning of the trip, getting used for the purpose intended. Thanks for the tour down South Side, Stormlover, fun skiing with you and your daughter!

AmboVan looks a lot different since the last time I saw it! Slightly different environment too. :sunny:

Last time i saw it there was water, ice, mud up to the floor boards. But the solar kept up with my espresso machine. Or was that the year before.

^^^ Year before - The last year I was there

Went to 19.5 toyos on stazworks wheels, kept losing treads on the KM2s. Got a nose job too, sold off the aluminess, and just put that UJOR bumper on before the trip. Had an opportunity to wish that I had re-installed the winch too, but a little tug from a friend got me clear. Patoz, you saw it in beach mode - bit icier in these pics!

Always as great looking, no matter if in sand or snow!

Cheers

Likewise Tony! Good running into you and wow what a storm cycle! 92" in 6 days. Here's a cute video my daughter put together when we hit southside down to the road.

Just read the entirety of this thread and truly appreciate the invaluble resource it's become and I'm sure that it's become for others. Thanks for taking the time to share along the way of an incredible build and helping those with questions. I bought a 1995 e350 wheeled coach mini mod and have found a ton of valuable info here to plan out my build and will likely refer to in often in the coming month and possibly years especially looking at the length of time this thread taken. Hope you're still having a blast with the build since you've last posted. This may also bump it into you attention and we can see any travelling pics of late by chance?

Signed up for this site today as I have been lurking for a while. This was an amazing build. I hope it is still treating you well. Thanks for sharing. I am thinking of my own conversion soon!!!

Yep, when I saw it in Pensacola, we were sitting in it sweating our butts off!

This and Mega-Ambo.
We're the inspiration for my little project!
Anyone know what became of the Mega-Ambo.
