If you’ve been looking for a simple way to get into Skoolie or camper life, meet Lyla.
Lyla is a 1997 Ford E-350 diesel with 125,000 miles and a clean title. She was originally built as a family project and has been used mostly for weekend trips, festivals, and short getaways. She’s not an overly complicated full-time conversion, which makes her a great option for someone who wants a comfortable place to sleep, cook, relax, and get off the grid without taking on a huge build.
The interior is designed around being practical and easy to use. There’s a rear queen bed, a fold-down twin bench, storage, a small kitchen, sink, chemical toilet, and a basic solar power system. Everything you need for a weekend away is already here.
