Explore the Freedom of Van Life with GoTravelDaily
Local travel is on the rise, with people all over the world exploring their own country for a change of scenery. For travel lovers, taking to the road in a camper van can afford the ultimate freedom. Recently, one US-based company converted a van into a stunning home on wheels for one couple chasing such a dream, and they have announced new rentals for others itching to get out and about.
Introducing The Grand Teton
Built into a Mercedes Sprinter 4×4, The Grand Teton was created by Rossmönster Vans, a company comprised of custom woodworkers, engineers, and electricians in Longmont, Colorado with a passion for the outdoors. Designed with adventure in mind, the company tailored it for a couple looking to escape their city apartment and explore the great expanse of the United States for an extended period. Comfort and functionality were the top priorities for the design, ensuring the van is both usable and homely.
Comfort and Features
The van includes a raised queen-sized bed in the rear of the cabin, a custom L-shaped leather dinette seating area with built-in storage, a dry flush toilet, an indoor shower, cabinets and drawers, a gas cooker, and a cozy kitchen area. The interior is decked out with a 23-inch TV, a custom ski rack, ceiling fans, and an additional outdoor shower. Moreover, it offers different lighting zones and a solar panel on the roof for off-grid living.
“One of our favorite aspects of this van is the marriage between modern style and comfort and a rugged rig with complete off-grid capabilities. When designing this van, we wanted the couple to be able to live on the road, but do so in a way that felt comfortable and sustainable long-term,” Rossmönster Vans explained.
Rental Options
The company has recently launched a lineup of rental options which currently includes seven Retro-Mod VWs (all with newly-installed Ford engines) and three Mercedes Sprinters. The rental options start at US$110 a night and come in both manual and automatic, catering to a diverse range of travelers with varying interests. More information on Rossmönster Vans is available on the official website.
