Modern, Modular, Multipurpose

ModVans started as a group of friends who bought a used 26' Class C RV. They discovered they loved camping in the RV, but the class C was too big for weekend trips, and it was scary to drive in the snow or on dirt roads. The search began for a more modern camper van solution. The Ford Transit was the ModVans choice for an RV platform. Traditional RV manufacturers were stuck on Promaster and Sprinter vans and had no interest in building a Camper Van with a Popup top that is easy to drive and park. Being engineers and scientists, they decided to build their own. The ModVan prototype launched a business around the concept of a modern camper van.

ModVans is a new Recreational Vehicle Manufacturer based in Ventura, California. They have a vision is to build a line of high-quality, high-design RVs for modern lifestyles and budgets and offer them for sale direct to the consumer. Their chassis are built by Ford at the Kansas City Assembly Plant. The ModVans CV1 is assembled in Ventura, CA, by an employee-owned, environmentally aware corporation that pays living wages and offers full benefits.

Where Does ModVans Camp?
Because their van will fit into almost any campground parking space, you can generally camp in your CV1 anywhere you would normally camp, plus you can camp in RV-specific campgrounds and campsites that include "hookups" for power, water and/or sewage. Some of their favorite places to camp include:

• National Forest Dispersed Camping: Free - not all available places are documented, but see https://freecampsites.net/ for ideas.
• National Forest Campsites: Typically $10/night - no hookups
• National Park RV Campgrounds: Yosemite, Yellowstone, Lake Powell, etc.
• State/County/City Park RV Campgrounds

The ModVans crew prefers the quiet and solitude of National Forest camping. On long trips, they like to stay several days in National Forests, then spend a night in an official RV campground to take showers and empty and fill the water tanks.
