Discover the Mini-T Campervan: A Garageable RV Designed for Everyday Travel

Owning an RV is a dream for many travelers, but traditional motorhomes often come with challenges—high costs, storage headaches, limited drivability, and infrequent use. The Mini-T Campervan lineup by DLM-Distribution offers a different approach. Designed to be compact, efficient, and easy to live with, the Mini-T Campervan delivers the freedom of RV travel in a vehicle that fits naturally into everyday life.

Manufactured in Lake Crystal, Minnesota, the Mini-T Campervan lineup includes several garageable models built on proven automotive platforms. These campervans are designed for travelers who want one vehicle that can handle daily driving, weekend escapes, and extended road trips without the burden of owning a large motorhome.


A True Garageable Campervan Lineup

One of the defining advantages of the Mini-T Campervan is its garageable design. The Ford Transit Connect Mini-T, Chrysler Voyager Mini-T, and Chrysler Pacifica Mini-T all stand under seven feet tall, allowing them to fit comfortably inside most standard residential garages. This eliminates the need for off-site RV storage, avoids HOA parking conflicts, and keeps your campervan protected from the elements year-round.

Being able to park at home also means the Mini-T is always ready to go. Whether you’re planning a spontaneous overnight trip or a longer journey, there’s no added hassle of retrieving your RV from storage or navigating parking restrictions.


Three Platforms, One Practical Philosophy

The Ford Transit Connect Mini-T Campervan is the most compact and fuel-efficient option in the lineup. Its smaller footprint makes it especially easy to drive and park, while its excellent fuel economy—often reaching the high 20 MPG range—keeps operating costs low. This model is well suited for travelers who prioritize efficiency, simplicity, and maneuverability.

The Chrysler Voyager Mini-T Campervan builds on that same garageable concept while offering a larger vehicle platform and a 6-cylinder engine. With front-wheel drive and strong fuel efficiency, the Voyager Mini-T balances everyday comfort with road-trip capability, making it a popular choice for travelers who want a bit more power without sacrificing garageability.

The Chrysler Pacifica Mini-T Campervan expands the lineup further with available all-wheel drive while remaining fully garage-friendly. The Pacifica Mini-T adds confidence for travelers who encounter snow, rain, and changing road conditions throughout the year. With a refined ride and advanced driver assistance features, the AWD Pacifica Mini-T Campervan appeals to those who value added reassurance without giving up everyday usability and efficiency.


One Vehicle for Daily Driving and Travel

Unlike traditional RVs that often sit unused between trips, the Mini-T Campervan is designed to be driven regularly. Its car-like handling, manageable size, and comfortable interior make it practical for everyday errands, commuting, and city driving. When travel plans arise, it seamlessly transitions into a fully equipped campervan—eliminating the need to own and insure multiple vehicles.

This dual-purpose design is a key reason many owners choose the Mini-T. It reduces ownership costs while increasing how often the campervan is actually used.


Efficient Travel Without Sacrificing Comfort

Fuel efficiency is another area where the Mini-T Campervan stands out. Compared to larger Class A or Class C motorhomes that often average under 10 MPG, the Mini-T lineup delivers significantly better fuel economy. This makes longer trips more affordable and allows travelers to explore farther without constant fuel stops.

Despite its compact size, the Mini-T Campervan is fully equipped for comfortable travel. Each model includes a pull-out bed for two, a refrigerator, microwave oven, sink, and an integrated off-grid electrical system with solar charging. Alternator charging while driving and shore power capability ensure flexibility whether you’re staying at a campground or stopping for the night on the road.


Easy Ownership and Nationwide Service

Because the Mini-T Campervan is built on mainstream automotive platforms, maintenance and service are straightforward. Ford-based Mini-T models can be serviced at Ford dealerships nationwide, while Chrysler-based Mini-T models—including the Voyager and Pacifica—can be serviced through Chrysler dealerships. This wide service network simplifies ownership, especially for travelers who prefer not to handle mechanical work themselves.


A Smarter Way to Own an RV

The Mini-T Campervan lineup proves that owning an RV doesn’t have to mean oversized vehicles, high fuel costs, or storage challenges. With garageable dimensions, strong fuel efficiency, and the ability to serve as both a daily driver and a travel-ready campervan, the Mini-T offers a practical alternative for modern travelers.

Whether you choose the Transit Connect, Voyager, or Pacifica Mini-T Campervan, you’re choosing a vehicle designed to fit real life—at home, on the road, and everywhere in between.

Happy Camping!
