2017 Mercedes Sprinter High Roof 2wd Free Miles - RV rental near Anchorage, AK

RV overview

This is our fifth Sprinter build, conversion-rental, we call her "Mexicali Rose". The 2017 2wd Sprinter was purchased in the eastern US, and detoured by way of Baja California, Mexico for few weeks before trekking home to Alaska up the famous Alcan in January. It's now in final phase of construction in Talkeetna and will be ready in May. This interior build is a duplicate of our 2022 Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 that we have built especially for use in Alaska Boondocking. The van is fully stocked with coffee, tea, basic spices, and complete bedding with one set of towels per rental. There are cooking utensils, a stove, pots, pans, plates, cups, and two chairs with a portable table for sitting outside. A stored compost bag toilet is easy to use and stores in a compartment. A bike rack can be added, and mountain bikes can be rented. Anchorage van pickups at or close to the airport are easily arranged between 9am and 8pm. Most of the time we'll pick you up upon your arrival at Ted Stevens Airport or at a local hotel free of charge. Please refer to our other three vans, "2022 Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 High Roof""2021 Mercedes-Frieghtliner Sprinter 4x4 High Roof" and "2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter High Roof 144 2wd" for our extensive experience, rental history, and excellent reviews. This van was constructed winter-spring of 2024. It is 2-Wheel-Drive (with traction control) and is 19 ft long. Exceptionally comfortable for two people even if you're six feet tall, there is an eight-inch gel foam full-sized queen bed that runs parallel with the van allowing a super roomy sleep. This allows greater comfort for anyone over six feet tall. The super-quiet interior ceiling fan has a remote control pulls cool air in or push the warm air out. There is a marine heater that works wonderfully, just push a button. Insulated and crafted with local spruce and birch. The counter is walnut and there is extensive LED lighting and even two dimmable reading lights with USB charger ports for reading in bed. The van is designed to be fully self-contained NOT needing electrical hookups, and features a 400-watt solar system that easily meets the needs of most summer trips. You'll charge the system from the sun and when the truck is in running. This Mercedes Sprinter is meticulously maintained, and comes with an extensive road emergency kit. This 3.0L V-6 Turbodiesel truck is the gold standard of functionality and gets up to 17 mpg. It's a joy to drive on the Alaskan open road. Other things to note... We are one of the only vendors that DO allow travel to McCarthy and crossing the Denali Highway with a maximum 35 mph speed limit. We do NOT allow driving north of Chena Hot Springs just a few miles north of Fairbanks. No travel is allowed to Manley Hotsprings, Circle, or Coldfoot. That includes any part of the Dalton Highway-HWY 11, HWY 2 (north of Chena), or HWY 6. The van must not enter Canada. When traveling on gravel roads, speed is limited to 35 mph. Please note that our vans are GPS'd and report your location and speed-driven hourly. Travel is only allowed on State or Borough maintained roads. Please leave the van with a full tank of diesel, and remove all the trash and perishables.
