Is there a warranty on a used Vansmith build?

Used Vansmith builds include a limited 90-day warranty on the conversion workmanship, plus any remaining manufacturer warranty on the chassis and major components like the battery, solar inverter, and appliances. Full warranty terms are reviewed and signed before purchase.

What inspection and service is done before a used van is sold?

Every used van we sell is brought back to our Boulder shop for a multi-point mechanical and conversion inspection. We service the chassis (fluids, brakes, tires as needed), pressure-test the water system, verify the electrical system, and address any cosmetic items before listing. You get a full inspection report.

Can you deliver a used van out of state?

Yes. We arrange enclosed and open-carrier delivery anywhere in the continental US, or you can fly into Denver and pick up in Boulder. We also help with title, registration, and temporary tags so you can drive home legally on day one.

Do you accept trade-ins on used vans?

Yes, in many cases. Send us photos and details of your current van and we will provide a no-obligation trade-in estimate. Trades work best when your current van is a Vansmith conversion or another high-quality Sprinter or Transit build, but we evaluate every offer.

Can I finance a used Vansmith van?

Yes. Our RV loan partners (LightStream, Trident, LendingTree) finance both new and used builds, often with terms up to 20 years on qualifying vans. Used vans typically appraise close to retail because Vansmith builds hold their value well.

Can I modify or upgrade the van after I buy it?

Yes. We routinely add 4x4 conversions, solar upgrades, lithium battery additions, roof racks, awnings, and other modifications to vans we have already sold. Bring it back to our Boulder shop any time and we will scope the work.

A lifted 2022 Sprinter 3500XD 4x4 with 60,872 miles, built by its owner rather than by The Vansmith. It has a 6 kWh lithium system, 600W of solar, roof-mounted A/C, an indoor shower with hot water and an interior built from non-toxic materials.

What we love about this van

Its owner lived in this van full time for three years, from Baja to Alaska. It is set up for one person traveling with a dog or two, and it shows.

A heavy-duty 4x4 chassis. This is a 2022 Sprinter 3500XD with 60,872 miles, lifted suspension and all-terrain tires, and the owner reports it was serviced under its Mercedes warranty.
Power for real off-grid stays. There is 500Ah (6 kWh) of LiFePO4 lithium, 600W of rooftop solar, an inverter and alternator DC-DC charging. It is the system that runs the roof A/C and the fridge off grid.
Comfortable in any weather. A Dometic 12V roof-mounted air conditioner keeps the van cool for pets while you are out. A diesel air heater, a roof fan and sheep wool insulation cover the cold nights.
A bathroom you can use inside. It has an indoor shower with hot water, a portable toilet, a 30 gallon fresh tank, a 25 gallon gray tank and a marine-grade water filter.
An interior built without the chemicals. The walls are insulated with Havelock sheep wool, the paint is VOC-free and the vinyl plank flooring is GREENGUARD Gold certified, all chosen to avoid off-gassing.
Professional work where it counts. The solar and electrical system, the plumbing and the cabinetry were professionally installed. The rest of the build was done by the owner.

About this build

This van is for sale by its owner rather than by us. We are handling the listing and the walkthroughs, so start with us.

This is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500XD 4x4 on the 144 inch wheelbase. The build combines professional work (the solar and electrical system, the plumbing and the cabinetry) with the owner's own construction. It has a fixed rear bed with a gear garage underneath, a galley with an induction cooktop and a 12V compressor fridge, and an indoor shower.

Non-toxic materials were a priority from the start. The shell is insulated with Havelock sheep wool, the walls and cabinets are finished in VOC-free paint, and the vinyl plank floor is GREENGUARD Gold certified. A marine-grade water filter treats the onboard water, which the owner relied on in rural Mexico.

Power comes from a 500Ah (6 kWh) LiFePO4 bank with 600W of rooftop solar, an inverter and alternator DC-DC charging. That system runs a Dometic 12V roof-mounted air conditioner, so the van stays cool for pets while you are away from it. A diesel air heater and a roof fan handle the rest of the year. Seats 2, sleeps 1.

What to know before you call

We would rather be straight with you than have you drive out for the wrong van. This is a well-equipped off-grid build, but a few things are worth knowing up front.

Worth knowing: this is a solo layout. It seats 2 and the owner lists it as sleeping 1, and there is no rear bench. The toilet is portable. There is no awning, no added side windows and no L-track. There is also no fire extinguisher or alarm on board, so plan to add those. Part of the interior is owner-built, and the owner notes that a few tweaks would make it your own.
