Home // Vans We Convert // Ford Transit Campervan Conversion

This is why we convert and sell Ford Transit campervans:

  • Value. The Ford Transit packs just as many options and initial quality as the Sprinter, but comes at a lower price, making it the best value from the factory.
  • Power. The 3.5L Ecoboost engine has the most power (310hp) of any van, making short work of even the steepest mountain passes.
  • Ride Comfort & Ergonomics. The Transit rides and drives the smoothest from the factory. It also has the best mirror location, backup camera, and ergonomics of all the major brands.
  • Interior Height. With 6’6″ of interior height after conversion, the Ford Transit High Roof leads the market in terms of interior vs. overall exterior height. New in 2023, the Ram Promaster Super High Roof now has over 7′ of interior height.
  • Ease of Maintenance. Ford dealerships and repair shops are far more prevalent than Mercedes, making it easier and cheaper to maintain than the Sprinter.

We convert all different sizes of the Ford Transit into houses on wheels!
