GoneCamper easily and economically converts ANY minivan into a Minivan Camper!
Sometimes the easiest way to define something is by clarifying what it is NOT.
The GoneCamper is designed for traveling and camping. Minivan camping is different than tent or RV camping. We also feel that a minivan has MANY advantages as a camper and is an alternative to:
Setting up a tent and sleeping on the ground. Setting up the bed in the GoneCamper takes a few minutes, and breaking it down for travel takes only a few minutes, too. You don't have to pack up sleeping pads, sleeping bags, and a wet tent after the rain during the night.
Setting up a "roof top tent" and climbing a ladder to sleep. Roof top tents are "trendy cool" but often very expensive - sometimes exceeding $2,500 or more! You also need a special rack since factory vehicle racks aren't nearly strong enough. In the end, you still have a tent to pack each morning - wet or dry.
Towing a trailer that cuts your gas mileage in half. The GoneCamper is inserted into a Dodge Caravan (or any minivan with a 4' x 8' cargo floor) which is economical to drive, maintain, and insure. You don't have to purchase, license, insure a separate trailer. You also don't have to pay storage fees because the minivan fits in your garage. You don't have to fight the trailer in the wind, or in the mountains. And you don't have to worry about your trailer disintegrating on rough roads or stretches of road construction or just sitting in the sun between uses.
Driving a big motor home - big or medium - which are a pain in the wind, suck fuel and take up three or four parking spaces. A GoneCamper minivan is also MUCH cheaper than a full-size van conversion. With the Gone Camper you have an economical vehicle that is easy to drive and can also be used for day trips, commuting, or hauling passengers. You would never use a motor home as a second vehicle. Driving a huge, tall van conversion daily would be equally impractical. But the Gone Camper package allows you to transport two, three, or four passengers without removing the camping insert.
Spending tens of thousands of dollars - maybe even several hundred thousand dollars - on a camper you will use only occasionally. Face it, RV's are very expensive and depreciate terribly. Then you have to add licensing, insurance and continual maintenance on the components and flimsy construction, and monthly storage costs. But the GoneCamper slips into a very economical Dodge Caravan (or any other minivan after you remove or stow the seats.) The Caravan has been around for decades, is reliable and economical to purchase and drive. Plus, there are literally thousands available used so you can save even more. You could own a comfortable GoneCamper conversion and a reliable used Caravan for well under $10,000!!!
