We are selling our 2008 All-Wheel Drive Chevy Express camper van. We have had many great all-season adventures in it, but our lives are getting too busy to continue to take the adventures we used to take. This van was built with great attention to safety. The bed frame and fridge cabinet are custom made from steel both of which are bolted to the van body using rivnuts and grade 8 bolts (the same as used in cargo vans). The drawers are hung on locking drawer slides that lock in or out and are rated to 600 lbs. The entire interior has been spray foam insulated and is heated during the winter by a Webasto heater that runs off of the van fuel tank. The Webasto heater will keep this van toasty even in sub-zero temperatures and eliminates fire and asphyxiation risks that other heaters pose. The van is all wheel drive and has a locking rear differential (G80), which means this van is practically unstoppable. It handles exceptionally well in the snow and on rough terrain. It is extremely hard to come by these vans today, especially with less than 100k miles.
