RAM Promaster 2500 High Roof 159”
story:
Paul and Lara had found a new freedom since their two kids had recently moved out of the house. They had been researching different RVs, but didn’t feel confident about their options. One night they decided to watch the tv show Shark Tank, a show they hadn’t watched in years. They happened to catch Boho’s appearance and immediately knew this was the route to take.
Fin is a silver Promaster van built for Paul, Lara and their pup. It’s loaded with 400 watts of rooftop solar, and a 300ah Battleborn Lithium house bank. Since Paul wanted to be able to work in remote places, we installed a WeBoost 4G marine antennae which runs off grid.
Custom window installation provides pretty of venting and cross breeze throughout the van, and light airy finishes were chosen including an oasis style backsplash, beach style upholstery and unstained red cedar paneling.
Systems include 25 gallons of water, a 2.6 gallon hot water heater, various 110 outlets inverted from a 2000w Victron Multiplus inverter, and 12v appliances including lighting, a 75L Dometic fridge and a 12v roof fan.
Upgrades included a 12’ roof awning and a flexible system to convert the sofa area into a 2nd sleep surface for other guests (but most likely their dog)!
Paul and Lara picked up Fin from Tempe, AZ for their first road trip back to Sacramento, stopping in Sedona, Joshua Tree, and the Central Coast of California.
