There’s no shortage of adventure-equipped E-350s on our forum with recent examples including this 2002, 2010, and 2006 with a Stahl Service Body and Pop Top. The 4WD converted vans seamlessly blend comfort and capability and are a favorite for overlanders and vanlifers alike. Today’s 2006 Ford E-350 (167,000 miles) has to be one of the most unique to date and showcases a wide array of backcountry upgrades and a tasteful camper conversion. If the E-Series panel van doesn’t offer the space you require, then this former hotel shuttle bus may be for you. Thanks to the additional space, it makes an ideal four-season rolling home as demonstrated by builds from Tiny Home Tours, Growing Slow and Wild, and Will.
From the Seller:
“The van ‘Beast’ quickly earned its name due to its size. It offers generous interior space yet is small enough to drive to the grocery store (not much longer than a Tahoe/Suburban. Snow, no problem. Sand, no problem. Desert, no problem. Mountains, no problem. The Beast will get you there.”
