Vanica Patrick: Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
Family-Friendly Vanica Patrick
Mercedes-Benz Sprinters that seat and sleep four are rare. Ones that have seating for five are even rarer still! But you found one in Vanica Patrick; there is a factory installed bench seat directly behind the cockpit with three seatbelts. This vehicle is perfect for a family or a group of friends looking to hit the open road and find adventure; it’s also great for those who want to sample #vanlife for extended periods of time.
If you are looking for something way more comfortable than camping, but don’t want the stress and cost of driving a big RV, Vanica Patrick is for you! This van parks in a regular parking spot and gets great gas mileage. She is very cozy and roomy, has plenty of height to stand up (no crouching) and lots of room for your four-legged friend as well.
The kitchen has a built in sink and removable propane camp stove so you can cook inside or outside. An electric Dometic fridge runs off solar and keeps all your perishables cold.
When it is time for bed, there are two queen sized beds set up like bunk beds. The bottom has a 6’’ memory foam queen mattress, and the top is a 3-panel platform that can be removed entirely or rearranged to make two twin sized decks with a space between.
For charging your devices and keeping things running, you’ll have two 110v AC outlets, dimmable overhead LED lights and a total of two, two-way vent fans in the rear cabin. Vanica Patrick also has solar panels and a Yeti 3000w lithium battery / inverter that can charge off of solar or shore power.
