{"product_id":"van-ackroyd-adventurer","title":"Van Ackroyd Adventurer","description":"\u003cp\u003eMeet Van Ackroyd, an epic adventure mobile. It is our hope that your experience with the van is as fun and fulfilling as it has been for us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVan Ackroyd is a 2019 Ram Promaster 2500, 136\" wheelbase, high roof with automatic transmission. We find the van very easy to drive and to park in most spaces. The van is equipped with a cruise control, Bluetooth, backup camera \u0026amp; features of most newer  vehicles. When driving on mountain passes, there is no need to manually gear down on the highway, the van will manage this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is a second row seat with seat belts for two that we have used for hauling our kids (children, not goats).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is one bed, so the children sleep on the floor under the bed (it is camping, you know). The bed is a comfortable bed for two adults, and us 60\" x 68\".\u003cbr\u003eSink System:\u003cbr\u003eThe van has 7 gallons of fresh water under the sink. There’s also a 7-gallon grey-water jug\u003cbr\u003eunder the sink that will need to be emptied regularly. They are labeled “Clean Water and\u003cbr\u003eGrey Water”. You will know which one is which if you connect the wrong one to the pump. The faucet on the sink operates on an electric pump.\u003cbr\u003eThere are LED lights in the van that run off of the house battery. These LED lights are controlled by a dimmer switch.\u003cbr\u003eGAS Cabin Heater:\u003cbr\u003eThe gas heater is located under the passenger seat. The air that comes out is hot enough to melt plastic, but please, make your smores outside.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHE FAN: This powerful little fan keeps the air circulating and provides lovely white noise to fall asleep to.\u003cbr\u003eSafety\u003cbr\u003eFor your safety and peace of mind, the van includes:\u003cbr\u003eCO2 detector – located under the bed on the drivers side.\u003cbr\u003eFire extinguisher\u003cbr\u003eFirst aid kit- Both are in the passenger side door\u003cbr\u003eTake Wide Turns\u003cbr\u003eYou are driving an 18-foot-long vehicle, probably larger than most you usually drive. Please remember to take wide turns, especially in and out of tight spaces like gas stations, camping spots, etc. The van is about 8 feet wide; avoid tight spaces \u0026amp; narrow roads with branches that will brush the sides. and that is damage that you don't want to be responsible for.\u003cbr\u003eSpeed\u003cbr\u003ePlease do respect the speed limit and do not follow too closely behind vehicles. Since the van is tall, you’ll notice it handles differently than your car and taller vehicles tip easier than lower ones.\u003cbr\u003eAvoid fast maneuvers, sharp turns, driving fast on washboard roads \u0026amp; hard stops. Think of this vehicle as a house on wheels \u0026amp; drive carefully.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrive easy \u0026amp; you’ll enjoy the best fuel economy as well! ~16-18 mpg\u003cbr\u003eHow High is It?\u003cbr\u003eThe van is 9 feet tall. Do NOT attempt anything 10 feet or less. Do not drive under fast food drive-throughs; we have found those \"safety\" height bars to not be accurate in some locations, unfortunately. Please do not risk it \u0026amp; drive around. If it looks even sort of close, do NOT attempt it. Be sure to take note of clearance warnings before trying to park in any low ceiling, urban parking garages. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRegular unleaded gas is all the van needs. Gas is on the driver’s side, right behind the door. You’ve got about a 25-gallon tank.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Outdoorsy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42366070751314,"sku":null,"price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0072\/8504\/7378\/files\/w1ukcpeetrhsei6ayk0y.jpg?v=1775883609","url":"https:\/\/basecamper.com\/products\/van-ackroyd-adventurer","provider":"BaseCamper","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
