Starting at under $25k, installation included, there's no excuse not to go adventuring.
The concept of camper vans is great – getting out into the great unknown without the hassle of setting up a tent, dealing with the elements, and having to pack up when you’re done. Instead, you head out to your destination, pick a spot to park, and boom, you’re good to go. The problem is that camper van conversions are typically pretty expensive. That’s where Titan DIY Kits comes in with its Timber Camper Van Conversion, which makes it a whole lot more affordable to turn your high-roof Ford Transit, Ram ProMaster, or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter into the ultimate getaway vehicle for under $25,000.
Based in Boulder, Colorado, Titan Vans knows a thing or two about building a van capable of surviving the great outdoors and is renowned nationwide for the high-quality workmanship it produces.
For the Timber conversion, Titan DIY Kits goes all out to create a comprehensive camper van solution that won’t leave you out in the cold. Highlights of the conversion include a complete freshwater solution with a 22-gallon tank and an electric pump feeding both the faucet and the spray-down shower. The sink system drains into two six-gallon gray water tanks, letting you reuse this water for other non-fresh-water requirements.
The conversion includes a complete kitchenette replete with a stainless steel sink, a modular and telescoping bed platform with a custom-designed mattress, 1/4-inch baltic birch wall paneling with 30mm thick thermo-acoustic insulation, ½-inch marine-grade plywood flooring with coin-dot vinyl over the top, and built-in cabinetry made from baltic birch plywood with marine-grade door latches.
All materials and components are designed to withstand a broad range of temperature fluctuations and body flex associated with the rigors of camper van ownership, with all components, including the electrical and plumbing systems, tested by Titan DIY Kits in a broad range of temperatures and conditions.
An off-grid electrical system lets you avoid busy campsites and incorporates a Goal Zero Yeti 1500X battery and inverter system capable of 2,000-watt AC outputs, while a 1,516Wh lithium-ion battery powers essentials and extras for your trip. The addition of a 150-watt solar input on the inverter fed by two 100-watt panels on the roof means the Timber camper van charges throughout the day. Over and above this, anytime the engine is running, the batteries automatically recharge.
The Yeti station features 120-volt outlets and USB ports for a variety of appliances, and extra 120V and USB ports are wires in at the bed and the opposite side of the galley for ultimate convenience.
The system powers six dimmable LED lights in the ceiling with two separate switches.
Extra options let you tailor the Timber conversion to your needs and personal tastes, with available diesel- or gas-powered heaters, energy-efficient fridges, ceiling fans, windows, and cabinet and wall finishes available.
Pricing starts at $24,575 including installation, the latter handled in-house by the professionals at Titan Vans. Titan DIY Kits says that it was able to achieve such a low price by streamlining and simplifying much of the manufacturing and assembly processes to reduce material wastage and installation time. By reducing waste, the conversion is not only cheaper but is delivered to the customer quicker, without any quality compromises.
Titan DIY Kits will also soon make the Timber Van Conversion available as a DIY kit for home installation, and a nationwide network of approved van builders is in the pipeline for customers who want the conversion handled professionally outside of Colorado.
