VAN TOUR | The Weekender Layout

We just wrapped up van build number 28 for our amazing clients in South Dakota! This couple came to us looking for a van they could enjoy the outdoors with and still bring their grandkids along. They decided the Weekender layout was perfect for them as they are avid campers, and don’t mind not having a full wet bath.

The open concept layout with the convertible passenger seat bench is a clever solution to maximize seating and sleeping options for a family of 4 while still retaining a spacious and functional interior. It's perfect for those who prioritize a comfortable and flexible camping experience!

See below for the full tour and more details on this van…

COMPONENTS

Dometic RTX 2000
$2,969.00

This self-contained truck roof parking cooler is battery-operated with up to 12 hours of running time. It is highly efficient with only 19A consumption in Eco mode.

The Dometic Coolair RTX 2000 creates pleasant temperatures for up to twelve hours before the battery monitor gives advance warning and finally cuts off the power supply to keep the engine ready to start. The even more powerful RTX 2000 uses its ample capacity to face hot temperatures in the truck cabin for up to twelve hours. Added to this, the CoolAir is amazingly quiet in operation. The two-cylinder compressor works unnoticeably, leaving the driver to rest perfectly to enjoy all the comforts of the parking cooler: the large, high-contrast display, the individually adjustable air distribution, the four operating modes – and the adaptive automatic mode of the air conditioner.
