The first years of this decade have already provided ample evidence that it’s important to get away from our daily lives from time to time.  And you don’t have to suffer the airport hordes or step foot on a plane to do so. We currently find ourselves in something of a golden age for luxury trailers, which has made it easier than ever to take your life on the road without sacrificing many, and in some cases any, of the comforts of home. And now, there are plenty of manufacturers and dedicated conversion shops giving the same treatment to vans and other similar vehicles. They may not be able to sleep as many people as their hulking cousins—with one key exception—but these all-in-one wonders come loaded with perks such as high-end kitchens, Wi-Fi-enabled multimedia systems, and plush beds. Plus, their relatively smaller size means they are more agile, off-road friendly, and easier to park. Below are 15 campers that will let you experience #vanlife in comfort and style.

Our Best Camper Van Picks

Best overall: airstream interstate 24x, best for off-roading: jayco terrain, best for weekend getaways: mercedes-benz eqt marco polo, best for off-the-grid trips: winnebago solis, best for cyclists: outside van tails, best for camping (anywhere): storyteller overland beast mode 4×4, best to live in: loki expeditions discovery series, best all-electric option: tonke eqv.

• Best for G-Wagen Lovers: Terracamper Tecrawl

Best With a Bathroom and Shower: Thor Motor Coach Sanctuary

Best for $50,000: caravan outfitter free bird, best for families: winnebago boldt, best for winter road trips: sportsmobile sprinter 4×4, best conversion: boho old faithful, best for diy couples: ford transit trail.

Airstream. Thankfully, the company isn’t afraid to branch out. Just look at the  Interstate 24X , the trailer maker’s attempt to take the camper van to new heights. Built on the bones of a  Mercedes-Benz  Sprinter—like a lot of the models on this list—the vehicle has everything you need to rough it in comfort. Airstream has done a lot to maximize space in its climate-controlled cabin. A modular dining table doubles as a desk, and it can be easily converted into the largest sleeping area in a Class B Motorhome. There’s also a full mini kitchen and bathroom. You can take the van off-roading, too. In addition to a 3.0-liter turbo-diesel V-6 engine that churns out 188 hp and 325 ft lbs of torque, it also comes equipped with four-wheel drive, a height-adjustable suspension and all-terrain tires. Pricing for the all-around beast starts at $213,850.

Inside the Interstate 24X

Special Features: —A climate-controlled living area that has been designed to maximize available space. —A modular dinner table, a mini-kitchen and a bathroom with a toilet.

Jayco is best known for its hulking travel trailers, but like Airstream, it can do compact, too (well, compact enough to fit in a parking space, that is). The US company’s new  Terrain  model, which starts at $192,000, is an adventure van designed for those who like to veer from the beaten path. As the name suggests, it’s designed for off-roading, with a turbo-diesel V-6, Koni shocks, a rear stabilizer and a rear hitch strong enough to tow an additional trailer if you need more room. Inside, it’s a little spartan compared to some other options on this list, but its kitchenette can be converted into a sleeping area with room for a full-size bed, as well as plenty of storage space beneath. There’s even a built-in awning when you need some shade in the summer months.

Mercedes-Benz clearly doesn’t want to relinquish its title as the go-to van maker for outdoor lovers. At last year’s Düsseldorf Caravan Salon, the German marque showed off a prototype based on its upcoming all-electric EQT van called the Marco Polo. The stylish EV has everything you need for a weekend at the campground and is more compact than the ubiquitous Sprinter. When the van’s rear seats are folded down, the back can be used as either a sleeping area with room for a double bed or a cooking and entertaining space. The kitchen doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of some of the other entries on this list, but it does have a pull-out stove, fridge and sink. There’s also a pop-up, roof-mounted tent if your travel party includes more than two. The Marco Polo is a concept, but Mercedes will sell a module that will allow you to turn any EQT into a camper van when the $51,500 EV goes on sale in the spring.

• Mercedes-Benz

Special Features: —All-electric power train, so you don’t have to worry about doing too much damage to nature while you explore it. —Its  camping  gear—from the bed to the kitchenette—is part of a module that can be fully removed when you need more cargo room.

The Winnebago Solis is for adventurers who don’t want to be confined to the campground. The van is available with an optional power kit that has everything a group of up to four adults needs to spend a few days off-the-grid. The setup, which includes an inverter, a shore battery converter, a battery energy converter, a solar energy converter and an alternator energy optimizer, can produce enough power to keep the van and all its features running for up to 72 hours. On top of that, the van features a kitchenette, a convertible entertainment area with room for a double bed, and a full-width wet bath.

Inside the Winnebago Solis

Special Features: —A unique power kit that can provide enough power to spend up to 72 hours off the grid. —Still has all the features you’d expect from a luxe camper van, including a full-width wet bath.

If you like to mix biking and camping, Outside Van has the vehicle for you. The Portland brand’s  Tails  model is a camper van designed with cyclists in mind. The van, which is based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, has everything you need for a few days away from home, including a kitchenette, a roll-over sofa and a convertible mattress. But what really sets it apart is the rear of the vehicle that’s basically an on-the-go bicycle repair shop, with a fold-down work table, an air compressor and Molle panels to hang all your tools. If that wasn’t enough, it somehow has room for six bikes, even when the bed is laid out for the night.

Outside Van

Special Features: —The back of the van is basically a bicycle-repair shop with a fold-down table, an air compressor and plenty of storage space for tools. —Has room for six bikes, even when its convertible sleeping area is out.

This latest offering from Storyteller Overland, based in Birmingham, Ala., is a true adventure van. The  Beast Mode 4×4  is the outfit’s most feature-packed model yet and was designed specifically for overlanding (as you may have guessed from the company’s name). It’s a true 4×4 powered by a 188 hp turbodiesel V-6 that’s strong enough to tow an additional 5,000 pounds. Its slick retro-style livery is offset with loads of useful off-roading gear, too, such as an LED light package, a roof rack and a side ladder and custom wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich K02 tires. Inside, you’ll find everything you need to relax after a day of exploring, including a cushy lounge that can be converted to a full-size sleeping area. There’s even a climate-control system to ensure you’re comfortable no matter the weather outside. It’s priced at a flat $198,746, for everything listed above.

Special Features: —Turbodiesel V-6 sends 188 hp of power to all four wheels and is strong enough to tow 5,000 extra pounds. —Surprisingly cushy lounge for an off-roading beast.

Let’s get this out of the way: the Loki Expeditions Discovery Series isn’t technically a camper van. It’s a giant expedition vehicle, but because its cabin is installed directly onto a heavy-duty truck chassis you also don’t need anything to tow it. The vehicle’s cabin is what separates it from anything else on this list. Loki Expeditions has turned a shipping container—yes, you read that right—into a full-featured living space that has all the amenities you’d expect to find in a luxury apartment, including a full kitchen with a large fridge, an entertainment area with a U-shaped banquet, and a wet bath with a cassette toilet. It’s also big enough to sleep six adults, with room for two in the dedicated bedroom and four in the entertainment area. And because the heavy-duty vehicle, which starts at $550,000, has all-wheel drive, you can take it practically anywhere.

Special Features: —Cabin has all the features you’d expect to find in a well-appointed apartment and can sleep six adults. —Built on a burly heavy-duty truck chassis that gives you the freedom to venture off the beaten path.

Looking for an EV you can take to the campground. The upcoming EQV just might fit the bill. Despite its relatively compact size—it’s smaller than the ever-popular Sprinter—Dutch camping outfit Tonke has managed to outfit it with everything you need to spend some time communing with nature. It has an entertainment area that doubles as a workspace along with a kitchenette, both of which can be converted into a two-person sleeping area with a simple flip of a bench (a roof-mounted, pop-up tent means it can sleep two more, too). Best of all, there are two variants available—the Touring, which is designed for long road trips, and the Adventure, which is aimed at casual campers.

Inside the Tonke EQV Touring

Special Features: —Fully electronic power train means you won’t have to worry about filling up the tank (though the battery is another story). —Can sleep up to four even despite its relatively compact size.

Best for G-Wagen Lovers: Terracamper Tecrawl 

The Tecrawl isn’t a camper van per se, but it’s hard to leave something this cool off a list like this. Terracamper’s latest offering is based on one of Mercedes-Benz’s most legendary vehicles, the G-Wagen . The German shop has dreamed up a modular accessory kit for the luxury 4×4, that starts at $11,900 and includes a roof-mounted tent, a convertible sofa, and a pull-out kitchenette with a fridge box. Thanks to the ingenious setup, the boxy SUV can sleep up to three and act as your home base next time you want to rough it for the weekend. And because it’s a G-Wagen you can take it as far off-road as you want.

Terracamper Tecrawl 

Terracamper

Special Features: —A G-Wagen but has room for up to three people to sleep. —Packs a brawny powertrain that’s well-suited for off-road adventures.

Thor Motor Coach makes camper vans for those uninterested in making sacrifices. With the  Sanctuary , the company has taken Mercedes-Benz’s already excellent Sprinter 2500 4×4 and turned it into something you could easily live on—on or off the grid. The off-road-ready vehicle comes in two configurations—the 19P ($148,680), which features a back bench that converts into a bed, or the 19L ($151,060), which has a fixed double bed. Even with the bed there’s still plenty of room for other creature comforts, including a bathroom, an entertainment area with a TV and a kitchen with a sink, a dual-burner cooktop, a convection microwave oven and a fridge. An Onan 2500 LP generator keeps everything up and running, too, including an A/C system you can leave on for eight hours at a time. There’s also retractable power awning when you want to spend some time outdoors.

Special Features: —Full-featured bathroom has a sink, a shower and a toilet. —Available with your choice of either a convertible or a fixed bed.

Caravan Outfitter’s third-generation Free Bird isn’t the most feature-laden camper van out there, but it has everything you and the family need to spend a weekend (or more) at the campground. The van, which starts at $50,810, is built on the relatively compact Ford Transit Connect platform but still has room for a full-size bed, a multi-purpose table that can be used as a dinette or workstation, and a pull-out kitchenette with a sink. Because it’s smaller than other options on this list, it only has room to sleep two, but there are several enticing add-ons, including roof- and rear-mounted capsule tents, in case you’re traveling group includes more people.

Caravan Outfitter

Special Features: —It’s the rare camper van that’s small enough to be comfortably parked inside your garage. —Caravan Outfitters offers several intriguing add-ons so you customize it to your liking.

Airstream isn’t the only famous RV maker that’s gotten into the camper van game. Winnebago actually sells several, and our favorite is the luxe  Boldt . Despite being nowhere near as long as one of its campers—it caps out at 22 feet in length—the $230,276 van has everything you’d expect from the larger vehicle, including dedicated living and sleeping areas, a fully functional kitchen and a bathroom equipped with a shower. You also have several interior decor options to choose from, each of which delivers an updated take on classic Winnebago style. The Boldt is designed for paved roads and campgrounds, but if you want a more rugged ride, the brand also offers the off-road-ready  Revel.

Inside the Boldt

Special Features: —Stretches 22 feet bumper to bumper, meaning there’s plenty of room for you and yours. —Enough space for dedicated entertaining and sleeping areas.

Take one look at  Sportsmobile’s Sprinter 4×4  and it’s clear what its designers had in mind: off-roading. Whether you go with the 12- or 14-foot configuration, the Texas outfit’s stripped-down take on Mercedes’s ultra-popular van comes equipped with a 3.0-liter BlueTec V-6 connected to a five-speed automatic transmission and pumps out 188 hp and 325 ft lbs of torque. That should be more than enough to tackle even the toughest terrain. Inside, you’ll find a spacious living area with a full-featured kitchen. If you want even more room, you can also opt for a pop-up sleeping area that’ll make it that much easier to lounge in comfort.

Sportsmobile

Special Features: —Well insulated throughout, but also has space for a propane furnace or heater. — 3.0-liter BlueTec V-6 and four-wheel drive mean it can take on any terrain.

Struggling to find a camper van that’s just right? Boho might be able to help. The Arizona-based company specializes in conversions and will work with you to create the vehicle of your dreams. The company offers several 20- to 24-foot layouts—of which the most popular is the appropriately named Old Faithful—that can be further tailored to meet your needs, whether your priority is multi-season versatility, lots of cooking space, or spending serious amounts of time on the road. The company also offers plenty of cool add-ons too, like wood paneling and flooring.

Special Features: —Versatile layouts that can be further customized so that you’re getting the exact van you want. —The wooden interior option looks better than it has any right to.

Ford’s ready to knock the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter off its perch. The Detroit giant unveiled its own camper van, the Transit Trail, last fall. The adventure-ready vehicle is based on its uber-popular commercial van but is taller, wider and outfitted with protective body cladding. It’s also powered by a potent V-6 that sends 310 horses and 400 ft lbs to all four wheels via a 10-speed automatic gearbox. Right now, Ford seems content to let the $65,975 vehicle be the base for the camper van of your dreams, but it comes loaded with a slew of features that will come in handy at the campground, including a drillable wall you can use to install shelves, a kitchenette or furniture, along with a 12-inch infotainment touchscreen and a back-up camera. It also available in three body configurations—medium-roof, standard length; high-roof, standard length; and high-roof, extended length—one of which should fit your needs.

Inside the Transit Trail

Special Features: —It’s basically a blank slate for you and your partner to create your own dream camper. —Still comes with premium features such as a 12-inch infotainment screen and a back-up camera.

5 Most Popular Tempo Traveller in India – Price and Features

Haven’t you seen the 4-wheeler tempo travellers on roads with tourists? I bet you have, at least once in your lifetime. You also might have seen speed posts’ red painted vehicles on roads. This blog will discuss India’s 5 most popular tempo travellers.

Table of Contents

What is a Tempo Traveller, and what is its Importance?

A tempo traveller is a four-wheeled tempo traveller normally used to carry passengers and or cargo from one place to another. The traveller comes in a price range of INR 3-17 Lakhs and is capable enough to carry loads up to 1810 Kg, which is equivalent to that of a mini truck. Therefore, in the same price range, you are availing of some alternative offers.  

1. Force Tempo Traveller 3050

Force tempo traveller 3050 is a four-wheeled vehicle with a lot of special features and specifications. Let us make it through its specifications and features one by one and decide what’s special in the traveller van.  

Specifications

Force tempo traveller 3050 comes with FM2.6CR ED type, 4 cylinders, the engine that produces 350 Newton-Metres of torque. This produces 115 HP of power and hence is a capable tempo traveller. The gross weight of the tempo traveller (GVW) is 3675 Kg, and with a wheelbase of 3050 mm, the tempo traveller has got a lowered centre of gravity. This leads to more stability while travelling on the road.

The BS-VI engine complies with all the environmental norms leading to fewer carbon pollutants in the air and economic mileage. Furthermore, the synchromesh transmission makes a smooth gear-changing experience for the driver. This type of gear transmission also causes less wear and tear to the engine of the tempo traveller.

Force tempo traveller 3050 comes with robust features that match its style and design. This Mercedes-made 2596 CC engine comes with CNG and diesel as fuel options. It has got a stylish design covered in white colour. The tempo traveller comes with a driver+12 seated configuration. 

The brakes of the tempo traveller are one-of-a-kind hydraulic, dual circuit, ABS-enabled (vacuum-assisted) brakes with EBD and auto slack adjuster. So this tempo traveller is totally safe to run on roads of all kinds, i.e. wet, dry, cemented, etc. It has got a comfortable interior with a semi-elliptical spring suspension assisted by hydraulics shock absorbers and an anti-roll bar.

This tempo traveller is priced at INR 12.85-16.32 lacs. Now let’s move on to the next tempo traveller.

2. Tata Winger Cargo

Tata Winger Cargo is a four-wheeler that is generally used to move cargo from one place to another. This tempo traveller is priced at INR 8-8.20 Lakhs . The 98.56 HP tata-made 2200 CC engine generates a torque of 200 N-M. In this segment, we will discuss this tempo traveller’s special features and specifications.

• It has a 60-litre large-size fuel tank, enabling it to cover large distances at large speeds.
• The maximum torque to the four-wheeler cargo carrier is 200 Newton Metres. This makes the tempo traveller van capable of lifting heavy loads.

New details in Eloy fatal hot air balloon crash revealed in toxicology report. What we know

New details emerged about the fatal hot air balloon crash in Eloy earlier this year that killed four and injured one, according to a recent toxicology report.

On Jan. 14, 37-year-old pilot Cornelius van der Walt was operating the aircraft that held 12 other people when it crashed into "desert terrain following an unspecified problem with its envelope," according to the National Transportation Safety Board.

The plummet left four passengers dead, including van der Walt, and one critically injured . The remaining eight passengers were skydivers who left the aircraft before any issues arose, official reports state.

The survivor of the deadly crash, 23-year-old Scottsdale resident Valerie Stutterheim, suffered a traumatic brain injury as a result of the incident. The parents of Stutterheim have since helmed a GoFundMe campaign with a $100,000 goal to help pay for their daughter's rehabilitation and care.

The balloon, a Kubicek BB 85 manufactured in 2011, was found to be deflated with the burner still on before it hit the ground, the NTSB report found.

Van der Walt, an Eloy resident originally from South Africa, was the owner and founder of the company of the aircraft he was piloting, Droplyne Hot Air Balloon Rides. The company could not be reached for comment, although a statement on its website claims that services have been suspended due to the incident.

While described as "an experienced and safety-minded pilot" by those who knew him , new autopsy reports revealed that van der Walt had "elevated levels of ketamine" in his system at the time of the crash.

Toxicology panels conducted by the Federal Aviation Administration and NMS Labs uncovered that van der Walt had "60 times the threshold" of ketamine content in his blood, according to U.K. threshold standards that are indicative of impaired driving. A threshold for impairment was not immediately available from a U.S. source.

Van der Walt did not have a known ketamine prescription, nor was the drug used in resuscitation efforts at the scene of the crash, according to the official report.

"In overdose, ketamine produces effects such as hallucinations, delirium, irrational behavior and vision and GI disturbances, progressing to cardiovascular and respiratory irregularities," NMS labs staffers wrote in their toxicology report.

The rest of Van der Walt's autopsy notes severe injuries he sustained during the hot air balloon crash. His head had "large scalp contusions," according to the report. He also suffered numerous rib fractures, muscle injuries, a brain hemorrhage and abrasions all over his body. The autopsy concluded that the combined injuries led to his death.

Report: Pilot in Arizona hot air balloon crash that killed 4 had elevated levels of ketamine

The safety protocol behind hot air balloon travel

Arizona is home to multiple hot air balloon festivals  every year, and while incidents are rare, licensed pilots are still required to undergo "rigorous training and extensive background checks" before operating any airborne vehicles, according to Nanette Duncan, the event director for the annual Arizona Balloon Classic festival .

For guests interested in experiencing balloon travel through their coordinated festivals, Duncan ensures that meticulous safety procedures are followed before ascension. This includes routine inspections and the use of weather instruments to determine wind speed and direction.

"Preflight activity to track wind is ... integral to a successful flight," Duncan said. "And the gear is always inspected before and after flight."

Additionally, all of the balloons are piloted by licensed and trained professionals, who are required to undergo extensive background checks before operating any aircraft.

"There's a regimen that (operators) go through to prepare," Duncan said. "These pilots go through a pretty rigorous training and application process to be a part of our events."

According to Duncan, this process includes obtaining copies of flight and inspection records as well as verifying that all pilots are Federal Aviation Administration-regulated and medically certified.

Pilots also must notify proper channels in advance, including neighboring airports and Air Force bases, of the dates and times they will be in the air to receive flight authorization. This ensures that all the necessary criteria, such as adhering to restricted areas and "no-fly zones," are met, Duncan said.

In addition, guests are required to sign a waiver before boarding and are issued a thorough explanation of standard safety precautions and regulations, Duncan said.

What's next?

While it is unknown if any or all of these standard hot air balloon procedures were checked before the Eloy flight, investigators continue to examine the incident, including analysis of any anomalies of the balloon aside from the deflated envelope.

According to a preliminary report  released on Jan. 25, thermal damage was shown near the mouth of the envelope. Additionally, sewn rim tape material at the top of the envelope was frayed and several of its panels were damaged.

The NTSB says investigations can take between one to two years before they're complete and a final report is available, according to its website.
