Redpoint Vanture, a Michigan-based van outfitter, has completed a new camper van conversion called Bivouac, based on a Ford Transit 148 with a high roof and all-wheel drive. Designed for one or two travelers, it features a minimalist interior with a queen-size bed, a kitchen with a refrigerator and microwave, a hidden shower, and a portable toilet. The van is equipped with an EcoFlow 10-kWh lithium battery, 550W of solar panels, and an Espar heater, making it suitable for year-round travel.

2026 RV Clearance in Louisiana: Model Overview

Bent's RV announced clearance sales of new 2026 model-year RVs at its Albany and Boutte locations in Louisiana.

Winnebago unveils off-road motorhome Arka based on Ram 5500

Winnebago has introduced a new off-road motorhome, the Arka, built on the chassis of the heavy-duty Ram 5500 pickup. It features a 6.7-liter turbodiesel producing 360 hp and 1,085 Nm, and can tow a 6.8-ton trailer. The living module accommodates four people, with a kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping areas. Claimed autonomy is 14 days, supported by a 16.8 kWh battery, solar panels, and a 227-liter water tank. Price starts at $331,901.

Strauss Proposes Program Phasing Out Street Parking for RVs

At the public safety committee meeting on August 11, Seattle Councilmember Dan Strauss introduced a legislation package that he said would help people living in recreational vehicles (RVs). However, while the package includes funds for services such as safe lots and RV storage, it also introduces an RV permit program aimed at removing all RVs from Seattle's streets – a move that advocates say could leave RV residents worse off. The new rules would limit RV parking to two hours and prohibit overnight parking, except for those with a special permit.

Car converted into mini motorhome for under 1000 euros

YouTuber President Chay built a removable module on his car with two sleeping berths, a mini kitchen, and an air conditioner. Construction took ten days and cost less than $1,000 (about €920). The project, posted on YouTube, has gathered around 7 million views. In France, such conversions require caution: permanent conversion of a vehicle into living quarters must be registered as a VASP, so removable structures remain a compromise.
