Significant departure from the Sprinter, and I know I have plugged it before, but...
My current camper is a true 4x4 (central decoupler, front and rear lockers and a crawling gear, 10 inches of clearance), a fridge/freezer and house battery setup that will keep my beer and ice cream cold for 4-5 indefinitely, a propex heater which keeps it toasty when we go skiiing, can sleep 2 couples, is powered by the most popular Ford engine of all time, and can park in most home garages.
It's a 1986 VW Syncro Westfalia with a Bostig Zetec engine conversion. jyl rocks one of these as well (his is not the "syncro" 4x4 but does have the same engine conversion). I can buy anything for this engine at my local FLAPS or at the FLAPS in South America.
They are pretty badass offroad (unlike the sprinter)
Here is one for sale.
Here is mine:
