Ethel is a 2017 Ford Transit High Roof that was custom built with lots of love by myself and my father. After living in/out of Ethel for 2+ years as a traveling physical therapist, I am ready to share her adventures with the world!Comfort is key in this rig, featuring a permanent 72x60" bed with 8 inch foam mattress. There is ample 'garage' space underneath the bed and accessible through the back doors. You will have enough room to store 2 bikes, skis, camping gear, and any extra luggage.With 200 Watts of solar panels and a battery isolator that will charge you up while you are driving, power is never an issue. The sink is conveniently placed by the side door for easy fill up of the 16 gallon water tank, and works well for brief outdoor showers. The kitchen comes equipped with cups, plates, silverware, pots, a pan and a sizeable isotherm fridge, plenty of room for food for a week for 2. A small bench with toilet underneath, and passenger side swivel seat will give you enough space for lounging around.I built this dream van for my ultimate comfort for anything from long road trips to full time living. However I recently moved out of my van into an apartment, and I would love for other people to take Ethel out on the road and keep her company! What's includedKitchen utensils and pots/pans, 2 camping chairs, small camping table. For extra cleanliness, I ask guests to bring their own linens - queen bedding and pillows. RecommendationsFrom coastal drives up/down PCH, to Joshua Tree, Angeles National Forest, Sequoia, Kern River, Mammoth, Yosemite, there is an abundance of beautiful scenery within 5-6 hours drive of the pick up location. Other things to noteSadly no pets due to allergies :(
NO SMOKING!

I build this van out with my Dad in 2018 and took off across the country to work as a travel Physical Therapist. I landed in LA during Covid and decided it was time to put roots down and stay :) I still take my van on weekend adventures, but would love to share my van with others! Please reach out if you have any questions!
