.Airstream_Inc goes VanLife with the Rangeline touring coach:
chassis, the Rangeline is built around the Ram ProMaster 3500 commercial van. That means all models come with a 280-hp 3.6-liter V-6 engine and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The van's front-wheel-drive platform is ideal for such an application as it provides a low, flat load floor. However, ground clearance isn't as generous as it is in all-wheel-drive variants of the Sprinter van.
Since it's smaller than other motorhomes, Airstream has had to get creative with storage solutions and interior layout in the same ways that DIY van-lifers and tiny-home builders have. It can accommodate two adults on its flip-down double bed while an optional pop-top feature adds sleeping space for two more for an additional $11,694.Overhead storage is abundant, and a clever drawer that's designed to hold dog bowls slides out from beneath the 3.2-cubic-foot refrigerator.
A wet bath is hidden behind a silver accordion-style door, and aluminum ceiling panels are a reminder ofdesign. Airstream says it used Lizard Skin insulation—a spray-in product that's also available to consumers—throughout the design to damp out sounds and help maintain comfortable temperatures inside the Rangeline's living quarters.
The exterior is nicely finished with a fixed running board on the passenger side to aid access to the interior and a manually deployed awning that's free of side supports, eliminating the fear of whacking your head as you walk into your campsite at night.
