description Ram ProMaster Van (Converted) Overview
The ProMaster brings American muscle and sheer volume to the camper van segment. It offers a very boxy, high-roof option that translates into massive usable interior space. While sometimes criticized for its weight or engine tuning compared to European rivals, its sheer size and robust build make it a powerhouse for those who plan to carry significant gear or live in larger groups.
help Ram ProMaster Van (Converted) FAQ
Why can a Ram ProMaster often take a sideways camper bed?
The ProMaster's wide, nearly vertical cargo walls provide enough width for many transverse-bed layouts. Insulation and wall panels reduce the final dimension, so taller sleepers may still need flares or a lengthwise bed.
Is the Ram ProMaster front-wheel drive?
Yes, the ProMaster uses front-wheel drive, unlike the rear-wheel-drive layouts common in many full-size American vans. This contributes to a lower cargo floor and leaves the conversion area free of a rear driveshaft.
Is the ProMaster related to the Fiat Ducato?
The ProMaster is based on the same broad commercial-van architecture as the Fiat Ducato, adapted for the North American market. It uses North American powertrains, badging, and equipment rather than being mechanically identical to every European Ducato.
How does a ProMaster conversion compare with a Ford Transit build?
The ProMaster favors width, square walls, and front-wheel-drive packaging, which are useful for maximizing living space. The Ford Transit offers a different driving layout and is available in configurations that may better suit buyers wanting rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
