We've turned this Suburban into a comfy sleeping and camping vehicle to use before and after rafting trips. It would also be a great low profile camper for those who like to visit cities and other places where vans/ RVs/ campers aren't allowed, as well as anywhere offroad. This 2008 Chevrolet Suburban 4x4 allows you to go anywhere and sleep anywhere. The only exterior modification is a low-profile rooftop fan, so it has a completely normal appearance. Inside you'll find a professional custom conversion by EverVenture Custom of Evergreen, Colo.
Mechanics and parts stores across the country carry Suburban parts, making it easy to get back on the road quickly. Comfortable to drive, easy to park anywhere, very tough and reliable. Well-maintained, burns no oil between changes, and cruises along like a dream. With the 4 x 4, high ground clearance and without the size of a larger camper, it's easy to find a wonderful place to securely spend the night, rain or shine, wherever you go. We are selling because we recently inherited a pickup truck and now we have too many vehicles.
THE BUILD
EverVenture's skilled craftspeople built this long list of comfortable, functional modifications that support you in traveling and camping in comfort and ease:
*4-inch comfort foam mattress on a 60/40 split that allows you set up for either 1 or 2 people and leave any unneeded cushions at home.
*2 front and 2 rear gigantic storage drawers. Front drawers accessible from back doors. Rear drawers accessible from lifted tailgate.
*a full kitchen setup in 1 of the rear storage drawers: a pullout extension table with room for a two-burner camp stove, a lift-up light bar, a pullout expandable rubber sink, and an electric pump to pull water from the water container of your choice.
*Side cabinets!!! Easy-open cubbies to stash away your sleeping bag and bedding during the day, and an open elastic-banded cubby on each side to keep your essentials in easy reach.
*Dimmable USB lighting
*Reversible fan that can draw air in or out, or you can simply raise the hatch for venting without running the fan
*Dedicated cubby for the included Yeti battery to power the lights, fan, your cell phone, and anything else that charges either by USB or 9v.
THE 'BURBAN
This 2008 Suburban is the perfect fit for a person or couple who wants to use it like we did - not a daily driver but rather an exceptional, comfy, easy-to-drive camper ready to hit the road at a moment's notice for spontaneous weekend trips or extended road trips as far as you want to go. We used it only on long trips, so almost all our miles are highway miles. We've been meticulous about annual maintenance including scheduled oil changes and all the work to keep brakes, suspension, etc in top shape.
This car came to Colorado from Iowa, and the road salts used there did cause some rust spots on the exterior. These products are not used in Colorado, and not a single one of these rust areas has become any larger in time we've owned this car.
The 'Burban Camper does have some cosmetic nicks and scratches, including a few bestowed by our teenager learning to drive! We've tried to capture these accurately in the photos and can send you more photos and a video on request.
The 3d row seats were removed for the build and we still have those, included with the vehicle.
Notes:
*211,000 miles
*BRAND NEW Pirelli tires - less than 200 miles on them
*Power windows and power seats with two-position seat position memory settings
*Heated leather seats front AND back - soooo nice on cold mornings!
*Bose sound system
*Cruise control
*Airbags
*Backup camera
THE PRICE
*We're listed our Suburban Camper at $12,900. That's the blue book value on the car valuing it at good condition (see notes on cosmetic rust and scrapes above), plus some extra to account for the custom build and accessories like the Yeti battery etc.
*We're open to reasonable offers but are not in any hurry to sell - DO NOT waste your time or ours if you plan to make a lowball offer.
*Shown by appointment. Because of scammers we require a phone call first to answer any questions you may have and set up a time for a test drive.
*Thanks for looking - we hope you'll love this Suburban Camper as much as we have!!
