This thoughtfully designed 2021 Ford Transit was engineered to perfectly balance a high-end, remote-work lifestyle with rugged outdoor capability. Built with top-of-the-line components and meticulous attention to detail, this van is crafted for the long-haul traveler who refuses to compromise between work and play. It is fully optimized to live comfortably off-grid with modern amenities for 5–7 days with ease.
Inside, the living space features custom-finished walls using Portola Antigua Roman Clay, lending a soft, warm, and dynamic architectural aesthetic.

The vehicle has been flawlessly maintained over just 25,000 total miles (with only 20,000 miles driven since the conversion) and comes with a clean title and complete service records.
