Living in a Van Down by the River Was Never Supposed to Look This Good

Why yes, that is a removeable bamboo card table

Should you ever have to live in a van down by the river, make sure you do it in this van.

Using the body of a Mercedes Sprinter as a base, the gang from RB Components have outfitted the all-black Sawtooth Adventure Van for sustainable off-the-grid living and off-road driving.

Equipped with rooftop solar panels that feed into storage batteries and provide juice for its 3,000-watt power system, the adventure-ready 4×4 has a custom stainless-steel shower that draws from a 69-gallon water system, streamlined kitchen setup, panel bed and electric toilet.

With an array of storage cabinets, LEDs and removable bamboo tables, the Adventure Van boasts tinted windows for privacy, rolls on 17-inch wheels covered in a quartet of Toyo Open Country tires and has an exterior mount that hooks up to a gas grill for pitstop cookouts.

Call RB for a price quote; then go find your river.
