Do you want an RV that’s truly different from the rest? How about something riding on a chassis that typically underpins a school bus? That’s precisely what this 2001 International 3000 Series 3800 offers to its next lucky owner. It’s a custom build done by Imagamotive, and has covered 160,000 miles so far. That should tell you about its longevity and sturdiness, indicating that it’s well geared for at least a hundred thousand miles more of peaceful motoring, with the requisite maintenance of course. Join us as we take a closer look at this Texas-based custom RV and toy hauler.
Painted in black, the first thing you’ll note about this 2001 International 3000 Series 3800 is its rather unusual body style. At the front, it looks like your typical Navistar International school bus, with a long hood covering the engine compartment, and the driving cab starting well behind the front axle. You’ve even got the overhead safety lights as typically seen on school buses. As we move rearwards, we see that there’s a half body in place, with darkened windows for maximum privacy. But then, the body truncates just ahead of the rear axle, leaving an open drive-on flatbed to haul your toys with you on your cross country road trips or days at the racetrack. What’s the point of this, then? Meant for small off-roaders or even a pair of ATVs for exploring the great wilderness around wherever you choose to camp. After all, despite the fact that this vehicle comes with six truck-sized tires, it’s still not an off roader per se. There’s even a floor-mounted winch in this area, to assist with hauling whatever you choose to park up here. We even see a set of ramps in some photos, to aid driving on and off this area. The interior of this 2001 International 3000 Series 3800 is where the magic lies. You see, it’s a proper camper, with couches that fold out into beds, a refrigerator, a kitchen counter, and even a flat-screen TV mounted to one side. You’ve also got plenty of cargo compartments, with safety nets to keep things from moving around as you drive across the country. There’s also a reverse camera, air conditioning and even cruise control as per the control panels to the left hand side of the driver.
Powering this 3800 Series International is a stout 7.3L Power Stroke V8 turbo-diesel engine. Power goes to the rear axle via an Allison automatic transmission. Air brakes are standard for ample stopping power, and power steering ensures an easy driving experience.

Do you love camping, but prefer to take your home with you? Yes, we know that sounds like a turtle but the automotive equivalent is a camper. You can find campers that can be towed behind your regular vehicle, as well as those which can be driven in their own right. They can even stretch into the length and width of a full-grown bus, and offer you a five-star hotel-esque experience (minus the staff, unless you’ve got those as well). But what if you want something a bit more compact? Something easy to drive and park, something that won’t break the bank, something that won’t be a pain to turn around in case you need to? In that case, this 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Camper from Lakewood is an ideal candidate. Based on the hugely popular Volkswagen T2 Transporter series, it’s no surprise that it makes for an excellent camper. You’ve got plenty of conveniences and features that you wouldn’t expect to fit in a vehicle of this size. Plus, its 215,255 miles show that it’s quite an enjoyable thing to behold! If you find the mileage daunting, don’t. These vehicles are built to last decades, and they’re superbly easy to repair and maintain too – you’ll be amazed at how little is taken from your wallet!
There are rare moments in automotive history when an entire brand speaks with one unified voice. For Volkswagen in the 1970s, that voice carried a message of peace, love, and freedom—values that came to define the era just as much as the cars themselves. From the Beetle to the Bus, VW’s lineup wasn’t just transportation; it was a rolling symbol of optimism and counterculture spirit. Fast forward to today, and that ethos lives on in this 1971 Volkswagen Type 2 Westfalia Van. With a reported 5,480 miles on the clock, this beautifully preserved German classic isn’t simply a vehicle—it’s a time capsule. Its cheerful presence invites you to shut down the weekday grind and embrace a slower, more meaningful pace of life. Whether it’s a long drive along coastal highways or a weekend escape under the stars, this Transporter is a reminder that journeys aren’t just about reaching destinations—they’re about enjoying the ride, in true Volkswagen fashion.
