Selling Vanny Devito, my beloved 2002 Chevy Astro camper van, asking **$8,500 **.
I’m the second owner of Vanny, and I personally gutted and built out the entire camper interior myself. A lot of love, blood, sweat, and tears went into building, fixing, and maintaining this van. It has been an incredible adventure rig for camping, climbing trips, snow trips, road trips, and general van-life-lite /weekend warrior travel.
The Astro is a great middle ground between a normal car and a full-size camper van: easy to drive, fits in normal parking spots, but still gives you a cozy and functional place to sleep, cook, hang out, and travel.

**Mechanical notes**
This is an older van and is not perfect. She drives great and is perfectly usable, but the idle is a bit rough. Never been an issue for me.
This would be a great fit for someone who wants a functional compact camper/adventure van but not the expense of diesel or a giant sprinter!
