Big van

Well it's big if you need more space in a van. No affiliation.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Off-Grid-St....c100009.m1982







This rig is not for the faint hearted. It’s a 2006 Freightliner MT45 Step Van with a 5.9 Cummins diesel engine. 28,000 miles and runs great. CA smog exempt. Originally this was built for Homeland Security as a S.W.A.T. rig by LDV. (ldvusa.com) I purchased and built out as a fully solar powered stealth van. Not real pretty on outside, I purposely did not paint it because I wanted it to appear as a contractor's rig when boondocking. It could be buffed for more shine if desired. There are so many things to list so I will have a YouTube video up if you are interested in buying. It can be lived in full time or a weekend camper. The 9.0 cu ft refrigerator/freezer was very expensive and designed specifically for solar power. It runs full time and doesn’t impact the power at all even after multiple overcast days. Check them out ecosolarcool.com. The 480-watt solar is a 12-volt system with 4 batteries and works excellent. I will try to list everything I can. Message me if interested but only if you are actually interested in buying. I will add as many pictures allowed but have lots more. For Sale locally so I reserve the right to end if it this add if it sells.


NOTE: One of the gauges (fuel/temp) works about ½ the time, I’m sure someone with some electrical skill could fix. I only drive about 10 miles a day so it doesn’t bother me.
