Get outdoors!
Bandit is a 2020 Mercedes-Benz Revel…the kind of van other camper vans dream of being one day.
Bandit boasts all the bells and whistles including adaptive cruise control, lane assist, cross wind assist, rear camera, 360 sensors and much more. He is very comfortable and easy to drive. With its compact design, you have all the necessities including stove, sink, fridge, shower, toilet.
This is an adventure van, built for 4 seasons adventure travel. With solar power and several auxiliary batteries, Bandit can venture off grid for a very long time. This is especially important because – lucky you – the 4×4 with higher clearance allows access to some very remote areas. You’re going to be communing with nature in no time with Bandit by your side.
A couple of key highlights:
Modern Kitchen
The kitchen includes a flameless induction cooktop, stainless steel sink and a refrigerator that actually stays cold! Side panels flip up for extra counter space both inside and outside the van so you can move the party out of the kitchen. There is even a pantry for food storage.
Toilet and Shower
The toilet actually swivels so that you can access it more comfortably and the shower has hot water. Don’t want to use these features? No problem. You can turn the toilet/shower closet into an actual closet with hangers and shelves to store your clothes or gear.
A/C, Exterior Shower and other Conveniences
Rinse off after a day of adventuring with the exterior shower. It has hot and cold water. Is it a super hot day? Plug in at the campsite and turn on the A/C. Would you rather sleep with the sliding doors open? Use the snap-in screens to let the breeze in while keeping the bugs out. Every little modern convenience is included in this van.
Heat for Chilly Nights
There is no on-board propane, instead the heat is diesel powered and will keep you cozy all night long even in the chilliest of climates.
Off-Grid Capable
There is a 200-watt solar system to keep everything powered and running smoothly. With a diesel heat system, a battery array and an AC/DC inverter, you’ll have plenty of power for camping off the grid. You’ve also got 21 gallons of fresh water storage.
Smart Awning
The awning extends with a push of a button and has built-in LED lights for lighting up the campsite at night. No more stringing up twinkle lights or trying to find batteries for your lanterns. And the awning is smart! If the wind picks up it automatically retracts! How cool is that?
Sleep in Comfort
Rear flares around the bed give you extra space and make for a great night’s sleep. This feature was built with people over 6 foot in mind as it really expands the room in the bed. The bench seat converts into a small bed for one.
Tons of Storage
The “garage” in the back of the van provides ample storage (140 cubic feet) for your gear, bikes, skis, climbing equipment, etc. Not enough room for something tall or bulky? Push a button and the queen sized, super comfy bed will lift to the ceiling for even more room.
LOCATION
This van is located in Costa Mesa, just a few minutes from the John Wayne Airport (Santa Ana, CA) and about one hour southeast of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
