RENOVATED Truck Camper Tour | Off-Grid 1990 Lance

This camper has been the camper of our dreams for the past three years. We put a ton of love and time into getting it ready for full-time living and absolutely loved how spacious it is, the solar setup, and how comfortable this camper makes full-time or longer travels.

With heavy hearts, it's time for us to sell her and downsize. That being said, someone is going to love traveling in this camper SO MUCH, and we can't wait to see her back out on the road!

[guyh.]

Very nice mods! You two earned your Cheerios for this rebuild/modification. Well done. I learned a lot!

[whuop-wadeshumbleopinion]

What an excellent build! I can see why you would tear up when it leaves.

Beautiful job on the interior redo. How much does the camper weigh now?

[JeffMihalek]

Nice! Is the tile in the bathroom an adhesive vinyl? Looking to redo our camper wet bath like you did. Thanks.

[goodabouthood]

This is beautiful! I imagine you miss it. Curious how the bathroom tile held up for you. Been wanting to update my wetbath and wondering how feasible and durable that option is.

How in the holy of all hell does all that fit in there ..

Nice Mods. I HATE THE OLD LANCE ESCAPE HATCHES. It's nearly impossible to find a replacement. They are just too big and cumbersome. Ineresting that you added the Diesel Heater. While the old Hydroflame Direct Ignition Furnaces of that year work they are noisy and eat batteries. I really Like the kitchen layout of these models with the sinks opposite of the sleeping area. It's the most usable kitchen layout I have seen in a camper without slides. They originally came with a shallow dual sink which splash a lot so your sink upgrade and faucet are great. It;'s sad to put so much effort into a older camper because the book value is so low... but new campers are sper expensive. I also dislike the wet bath I belive one model of Lance 11' of that vintage has a dry shower but its' really just a shower curtain dividing what is basically the same bathroom with a different layout for the toliet. The bathroom sinks in these old campers are useless. But you guys did such a good job of converting this one. i am sure someone is going to want it for sure.

I have a 1996 dodge ram 2500 that can carry it. The truck only needs a transmission.
