You guys should see her now. We have a lot of photos on Instagram @explore.live.love.enjoy

HA! Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I guess I do get excited with the exclamation points ;)

The auxiliary battery is to the engine compartment! I replaced it with 2 6V 224Ah batteries from Full River! Downhill Speed Regulation is like Cruise Control for descending steep parts. It keeps the vehicle speed nice and slow without using the brake pedal! The heated windshield has very...

Would pair nicely with the Goal Zero 200W panels I am selling!! ;)

Thanks! I'll have to go over to the appropriate forum and make a build thread tonight!

We have one of the PETT toilets with the wag bags so we can stow it away when not in use. We didn't want a stinky toilet in the van but now I see there are compostable toilets! We feel the insulation is sufficient. We removed the headliner, walls, and floor and installed Thinsulate Double...

Thanks for the kind words! Yes it is expensive to but and build if you have a company do it! We save a lot by doing it ourselves, but it was still a chunk we put aside to do it!

Thanks! We custom ordered her from the factory in January 2018 and she showed up off the truck on July 12, (our 21st anniversary)!! I started with a cargo van so I could get the factory swivel seats and then pretty much checked all the boxes for options on the build sheet!! We knew we wanted...

We stopped in on a spur of the moment detour down to Arroyo Grande and ended up getting a Factory Tour from the President, Jonathan Feld! We had such a great time!

Stayed the night in Arches NP, it was 7º that night! Drove around the park, we pretty much had it to ourselves! On the way home we stopped for a roadside monument in Cheyenne at Ames Monument. We stopped to check out Bonneville Salt Flats but couldn't go drive around as they were submerged...

We live in El Dorado Hills, California just past Folsom on the way to South Lake Tahoe off of Highway 50. My wife sees a Doctor in Englewood, Colorado and we usually fly out and back. This trip we took time off work and made the drive out and back in our Sprinter! We headed out of town on...

Thanks! Wife picked out the color (blue/gray) and requested heated seats! I picked everything else!

Hello everyone! I've been a Mercedes-Benz Tech for 13 years now and recently discovered how cool Sprinters are! We have always been Land Cruiser owners and are on our 5th one, (a 100 this time). My dealership doesn't sell, or work on Sprinters but our other dealership does and so the wife and...

Did you press the 12v power button?!! I didn't!! I've been reading this thread since before I ordered my Yeti 400 and Dometic CFX15-US and sure enough when I plugged the fridge into the Yeti nothing happened, neither unit powered up. I tried several different ways last night to no avail...
