The script just says Eurovan Camper (Winnebago). It's probably just got a lift kit. _________________ Casey--

Nice offroadability after lift. 2003 has strong brakes to go along with a strong engine. 2003's traction control came in handy when I had to hillclimb. _________________ '68 Bus in West Germany, 1977-1979

Yep, went by again today to verify. It's a 5-speed, so probably a '93-'95 5-cylinder. Has GW wheels with new Geolanders on it. Nice rig with lots of recent accessories (still shiny hardware). _________________ '87 Westy in Wolfram Grey Metallic |

I love seeing this pictures.
Some quick thoughts and comments I meant to post a long time ago:
@greenlaker: I may have already said this before, but JIC not: I think you've got a stellar eye for composition. I'd love to see more of your pictures here. I think one could make posters out of some of them!
@jakefromstatefarm: You've got one of the prettiest vans around. Neat to see it in action and being enjoyed!
@MasterMarine Now YOU clearly know how to put a van to work! Loved that pic w/the motocross bikes, humans, tent, chairs, etc. Thanks for sharing it. |

My wife and son are currently enjoying an inlaw family trip up to Lake Wenatchee State Park this week. It's bloody hot up there.

Nice little trout stream. I do love fresh-caught brookies. Nasty wildfire to the north. There's so much beetlekill in this area, plus there was a weird phenomenon called a 'blowdown' maybe 15 years ago that toppled large healthy pines in the same area. Plenty of fuel for a wildfire.

Not ours, but we spotted this one at a nearby park where we regularly take the dog.

As a possibly-soon-to-be European owner...
What headlight conversion (kit?) did you use? I really like the round lights vs. the stock ones. Thanks!

Here's the place I purchased them from:

The light pattern is much better than stock and I have new LEDs to install soon. |
