Work Hard. Play Harder

WORK HARD. PLAY HARDER

How our work van drove our business forward and families further.

Realizing the Need for Something Bigger

It’s 4 AM, freezing outside, and four adults stand around an SUV, scratching their heads in the dark, trying to fit heaps of gear inside. For years, this was our routine: a small team of adventure photographers and filmmakers, working with cramped SUVs and limited space. But as our business grew, so did our team and our equipment needs.

With our workload increasing, it became clear that our trusty SUVs couldn’t keep up with the demands of our projects. We needed a vehicle that could handle our expanding team and equipment, one that wouldn’t limit our growth down the road.

The Game-Changer: Our Vandoit Ford Transit

WORK HARD. PLAY HARDER

Just in time for a 14-day project spanning California, Utah, and New Mexico, we picked up our new 2020 Ford Transit 350HD EL from Vandoit. This was more than just a new vehicle; it was the beginning of a transformation for our team. For the first time, we had room to spare, even bringing along items that used to feel like luxuries.

From dispersed campsites to rough mountain trails, we’ve put our Vandoit to the test, logging over 100K miles across the U.S. and Baja, Mexico. The van has become our mobile basecamp, tackling both paved roads and rugged trails and making it to locations we never thought possible with an SUV.

A Multifunctional Tool for Business and Adventure

Beyond transportation, our Vandoit serves multiple purposes: it’s a gear hauler, a shelter, and a mobile billboard with our company’s logo on full display. Vandoit’s design allows us to adapt the van to each project’s unique requirements, transforming easily from work mode to a cozy family adventure setup.

The van’s modular design, featuring an 80/20 extruded cage and interchangeable components, makes it adaptable to our shifting needs. During the week, we fold the beds away to make room for gear. On weekends, we reconfigure it for family trips, taking full advantage of Vandoit’s flexible interior setup.

How Vandoit Changed Our Road Trips Forever

WORK HARD. PLAY HARDER

Our Vandoit has become an essential part of both our work and personal lives. Whether we’re out running work errands, filming in remote locations, or camping with family, the van enhances every experience. It allows us to work hard and play even harder, making the journey just as rewarding as the destination.

In the end, our Vandoit van didn’t just solve our storage problems; it redefined our on-the-road lifestyle. With a dependable vehicle like this, we can focus on what we do best: capturing stories and creating memories that last.
