Minivan Camper Tour – After 73,000 Miles and Final Upgrades
Hey there, fellow adventurers! Welcome back to my DIY minivan camper tour. Since our last journey, I’ve made some incredible upgrades and modifications that have transformed my trusty 2019 Toyota Sienna into the ultimate camping companion. With an impressive 73,000 miles on the odometer and an average of 22.7 miles per gallon, this minivan has taken me on unforgettable trips. In this tour, we’ll explore these exterior and interior enhancements that have made my minivan camper perfect for all my camping adventures.
Starting with the exterior, I’ve added some game-changing upgrades. First up is the window deflector, a must-have for enjoying fresh air even on rainy days. Then, I’ve installed a spacious 16 cubic feet Yakima Roof box, increasing my storage capacity by 10% and freeing up valuable interior space. To ensure top-notch performance and safety, I’ve equipped my van with Michelin Cross Climate 2 all-weather tires, perfect for snowy adventures. These upgrades have enhanced the functionality and versatility of my minivan, making it even more reliable on the road.
I’ve made several modifications to improve comfort and convenience during my trips. From a DIY rechargeable roof exhaust fan under the moonroof to smart storage solutions and a revamped kitchen setup, every detail has been carefully thought out to make my camper a home away from home. Whether it’s upgrading my cooking stove, adding drawers and bins for kitchen essentials, or optimizing my sleeping area for better comfort, I’ve got it covered.
I’ve also addressed water and showering options, with multiple choices depending on the camping situation. From carrying seven gallons of fresh water to using a DIY emergency toilet and relying on solar power to keep my fridge running, I’ve made sure to be self-sufficient while on the road. And not to forget my newest addition, the top lid trash can, a simple yet effective solution to keep my space clean and pest-free during my travels.
As we wrap up this tour, I want to thank you for joining me on this journey through my DIY minivan camper. It’s been an incredible adventure, and I can’t wait to embark on more trips in this ultimate camping setup.
