This popular RB 50 floor plan maximizes rear storage for toys while enjoying an efficient floor plan full of windows up front. I am the 3rd owner. Originally a Texas van, it has spent summers in Montana and winters in St George, Utah for most of the 8 years I have owned it. The van is in good condition and currently located in Bozeman, MT. Clean title. Priced to sell $31,000.

5.4 V8 gas engine with 130k miles.
No known mechanical issues. It runs and drives like a dream.
The RB 50 layout has a convertible bench seat/couch/ double bed with seat belts for 3. Together with the swivel captains chairs in front, the van can transport 5 passengers.
The pop top penthouse provides a generous cabin head room of 6'4". The van sleeps 4 (2 in the penthouse above and 2 below)
10 gal fresh water tank with sink and grey water holding tank.
Refrigerator/freezer works well, although shelving is cosmetically a bit rough.
The 2 burner stove is supplied by a built in propane tank below deck.
There are 2 AC systems: one under the hood and a Starcool AC in the cabin.
A portable Mr. Buddy catalytic heater provides heat on cold mornings.
Two 110AH AGM batteries housed in the rear charge via shore power, while driving off the alternator, or with the two Renogy 100w solar panels mounted on the roof (installed 2022). There is a 1200W inverter as well, for 12v/110v power.
Sun/ privacy curtain for the windshield and front windows, plus pull down curtains for all other windows make the interior both dark and private when sleeping.
Newer Michelin Agilis Cross Climate tires (LT225/75R 16) have a lot of life left in them.
Full sized spare tire mounted under the rear. A towing hitch with 2" receiver lets you pull your big toys behind.

The Ford E250 is in great shape. Having spent its life in Texas and Utah, and summers in Montana, it's never seen snow or salt. No rust. Almost all of its 130k miles were on paved roads and highways. It has required very few repairs my 8 years of ownership. I had the transmission rebuilt in 2021 and the front brakes done in 2022. That's it.

In summary, it’s a reliable, comfortable and super fun camper van.
