Vanlife is more accessible than you think, especially with a minivan camper conversion kit. Whether you’re chasing weekend getaways or planning long road trips, converting a minivan into a camper is one of the most affordable, comfortable, and flexible ways to hit the road.
In this article, we’ll share 10 reasons why a minivan conversion kit might just be the best travel investment you’ll ever make.
Why a Minivan Camper Conversion Kit Is the Best Way to Travel
1. Live vanlife for less than $5,500
Most people don’t live the road trip of their dream or put it off over and over again because an RV, whether it’s a class A, B or C is expensive. This is one of the reasons why we have been sharing our solution since 2018. A solution that could not be more affordable. Because for less than $ 5500, our customers can travel freely with their everyday vehicle converted into a camper in less than 5 minutes!
2. Fuel-Efficient
Your minivan will run for thousands of miles with 2 to 5 times less fuel consumption, without the other costs involved in buying and maintaining an RV. Yes, our removable mini-van conversion kit solution is really economical compared to buying or even renting an RV.
3. Dual Purpose: Your everyday vehicle turns into a camper

The RoadLoft conversion kit being a non-permanent modification (a removable addition without any modification to your vehicle), you remove it at will to find your minivan completely in its original use.
4. Eco-responsible camper

In addition to saving money, you will be doing an eco-responsible gesture, having only one vehicle to maintain and support financially. You can even get a hybrid mini-van. Whether it’s a used or new minivan, there is a solution that fits your budget to allow you to acquire a practical everyday vehicle with a dual purpose.
5. Avoid rv related fees
With a minivan equiped with a conversion kit, you don’t have to pay the higher purchase fees, which can often amount to more than $100 000, neither additional insurance and license fees, nor the maintenance or storage costs of an RV.

6. Stealth camper: More camping options

Since a minivan is much more discreet than an RV, once equipped with the RoadLoft conversion kit, you will be able to stay for free in boondocking mode or on the tent campsites which are both more intimate and more economic than the RV campsites.
7. Budget for what really matters

You can save on your travel costs and treat yourself to more treats! The flexibility of this formula will allow you more freedom, improvisation and to live more “in the present moment”.
8. More time to enjoy
With the RoadLoft Minivan Conversion Kit, everything is always in its place and you don’t have to set up anything when you get to a site, or to pack in the morning. And on the road, there is no need for long manipulations to cook or sleep, everything is arranged and ready to be used! This will give you more time to enjoy the many adventures within your reach!
9. A Minivan Conversion Kit That Lasts for Years
Owning a conversion kit of your own, which you can use for several years, is equivalent to about two weeks of renting a campervan, not to mention the cost of renting an RV. Thanks to its strength and durability, you can transfer it when changing your vehicle, if not resell it at an advantageous price, our used kits retaining a very high market value!
10. Easy to Drive and Park
