Awesome ski, camping, adventure van in pristine condition! This van has taken us to the far corners of Canada, to the red rocks of Moab, and on many remote camping trips, performing flawlessly! She is a warm and cozy home on any road, and we get compliments and questions wherever we go. But we want to pursue other adventures, so it's time to turn our baby over to a new owner.

Robust dual-range 4WD system is excellent on snow, ice, and mud, but can run in 2WD mode for maximum fuel economy.

We looked forever for a road-ready Hiace camper van, but were frankly unimpressed by what was available. When we found this van, we decided to do the build-out ourselves since she was in such great condition and had such low miles, and no rust. In building out the van and bringing her to “baseline” maintenance, we have spared no expense. Most mechanical and all electrical work has been expertly performed by Roamer LLC here in Seattle. I am a master carpenter, so I built the cabinetry and table myself, as well as the plumbing system. Our seamstress did the curtains and bed cushions, which are beautiful.

For the more remote trips we’ve taken, we’ve needed an absolutely reliable vehicle, (particularly when exploring the Dempster highway!). This van has never let us down!

She was an ambulance in Japan, and was stored indoors: rubber window and door seals are in great condition, the interior is near-perfect, and there is no rust. This is the extra-long/heavy-duty ambulance version equipped with the Toyota factory “bulletproof heavy duty” package including dual-range selectable 4WD with locking hubs and H.D. differentials and transfer case, 5 speed manual transmission, 1,000 kg. payload frame with leaf spring rear suspension, manual roll-up windows, analog primary gauges, and an ultra-reliable 3L cast-iron NA diesel engine. This is a simple, substantial, highly reliable vehicle in excellent condition. I am a perfectionist, and have maintained this van on an “open checkbook” basis. All listed components are 2023 vintage except the Maxair fan, Nakamichi radio, Bilstein shocks, Dometic fridge, KO2 tires, light bar, and Coleman stove, which are 2022. Everything works!
