Get it checked out before you buy! That van would look amazing with blacked out bumpers, fender flares and a ladder!

If someone is seriously considering a fly in drive out purchase, I would have all fluids drained and replaced, including the gas tanks. It appears it has been sitting for a few years, and may only have one tank working at this time.
It has 184K on the speedo. Relatively unknown history. Guy said he bought it at a lien sale at a storage facility, and has the title? HMMMMMM?
I wouldn't do a fly and drive without replacing the tires either.
If the engine and tranny are whipped, your 11K deal could be 20K real fast.

Good Luck

Auto locking hubs? Unusual.

The gaucho looks really short to me. It does have the provision for the extension, but it still may not be enough for taller people. Since that is the only sleeping surface, any potential buyer should measure the bed to make sure they will fit on it.
