Description
I HATE to sell our van. The reason we are selling? My wife and I are traveling for a year plus and it doesn’t make economical sense or vehicle sense to have the van sit for over a year. We have taken the van from an unreliable vehicle to a super reliable and well-maintained vehicle. Rocky Mountain Westy in Ft. Collins, CO completed almost every update to the van. IMO, they are the best in the biz!. We (Rocky Mountain Westy) have touched almost every mechanical item on the van and it is super solid. At this point I would go anywhere with it. All receipts and service records from all owners are available. I’m not in this to make money…believe me. You will get a van that is mechanically solid without the headaches of mechanical updates.

Highlights
- Syncro (AWD, Rear Locker, Front Locker) - Recently repaired and serviced. Great in snow, rough roads, etc... - Subaru H6 Engine Conversion - I spoke with a number of people and extensively with RMW about the engine type to install. The H6 has been a great choice for the Syncro. The van can keep up with traffic (and easily pass newer vehicles) and is super fun to drive. - Adventurewagen Hightop Van - The hightop advantage is storage and less hassle when camping. No need to move things around when setting up and camping. Great stealth camping capabilities. Also, great for winter camping with the Propex heater. - Full Camper - Propane Stove, Fresh and Grey Water Tank, New Electric Water Pump, New Propane Furnace, 2 Beds, Refrigerator, Auxiliary Battery, LED lights, Pull Blinds, New Awning, New Propane Tank,
