Always the same motorhomes... Not being able to drive somewhere quickly with that big thing... Don't all these facilities exist without sacrificing driving comfort? Or more! Does all this comfort exist AND can one go anywhere with it, even if the way forward is less reliable? Can this still look nice? And can one stand up completely? That is not an unnecessary luxury, if only for the feeling of space!
I asked myself these questions during the search for the right alternative.
The Ford 4x4 Forty Van now has it all and with its 170 hp engine, no slope is too high.
Going mountain biking or walking by simply driving locally is now a breeze. Taking some racing bikes with you for 2 (or 3) people, no problem.
You can then shower on site, there is even a handy outdoor shower for your bicycle. The comfort and utilities are great in this type of "VAN", especially because all the doors can be opened wide! This way, the cook is once again the center of attention when dining, for example :) The evening sun is the most beautiful at the back of the motorhome because the doors can also be opened here! There is plenty of storage space under the chairs, beds and hanging cupboards. There is even room to neatly hang up a costume or rug.
All this ensures a worry-free trip, for a weekend or a longer period.
On an adventure with the necessary luxury and comfort, always at hand, pure fun. Even more the feeling of freedom!
