today is the day we’ve waited for


Outside Van is one of the U.S. based brands to know if you’re interested in buying a camper van. The company has just revealed its latest custom Mercedes-Benz Sprinter-based conversion, Mr. Blue Sky. It’s the perfect rig for people who want to experience the great outdoors the way you only can when camping…but also want to do a little gaming in their downtime.

The van itself is a four-wheel-drive Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 144, equipped for off-roading with both an Agile Off-Road ride improvement package and no-rub front tire fenders. The interior uses a modular system to sleep four, without sacrificing living space or resorting to a pop-top. It also some other nifty features like a bike repair stand and an outdoor shower.

But what sets this van apart is the video game rig inside. Mr. Blue Sky’s gaming setup includes a swivel-mounted 32-inch TV that lets you game anywhere in the cabin. It has a ventilated cabinet to store multiple consoles — not clear whether the Nintendo 64 with Mario Kart loaded was for display or actual owner usage — and surround-sound audio.

Ultimately, building out your six-figure custom camper van is a livin’ thing. While orienting a camper van around video game usage may sound like strange magic, tailoring your home away from home to your family’s needs is bound to reduce the number of family feuds. And isn’t the whole point of a vacation to have fun?
