Our Class B Van Sightings Program is a fun way for our community to share the cool vans they spot during their travels and help inspire others who love the Class B lifestyle.
One of the best parts of van life is discovering other Class B vans out in the wild—parked at trailheads, cruising down the highway, or tucked away at amazing campsites. Whether it’s a fully custom-built rig or a brand-new camper van fresh off the lot, every Class B tells a unique story.
If you see a Class B van out in the wild, take a quick photo, note the location, and send it to our Sightings inbox:
👉 Email: sightings@onlyclassbs.com
Your photo may be featured on our website, social media, or in our upcoming “Class B of the Week” series!
What Counts as a Class B Van?
We accept photos of any adventure-ready van built on common Class B platforms, including:
- Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
- Ford Transit
- Ram ProMaster
- Nissan NV
- Custom DIY camper vans
- Professionally built conversions
- Any compact van used for travel or camping
If it’s a van designed for adventure—even if it’s partially converted—we want to see it.
How to Submit Your Class B Sighting
Sending a van sighting is easy:
1. Snap a Clear Photo
It doesn’t have to be perfect—any good shot of the van works!
(Tip: try to photograph without showing people’s faces or license plates.)
2. Include the Location
Just a general area is enough:
- City + State
- Park or trail name
- Highway or landmark
3. Email It to Our Dedicated Inbox
Send everything to:
📩 sightings@onlyclassbs.com
Please include:
- Your name (or “anonymous” if you prefer)

We regularly highlight community submissions across:
- The Only Class B’s website
- Our “Van Sighting Gallery”

- Van Life inspiration guides
We’ll give you shout-outs when applicable—but you can also request anonymity.
Why We Created the Class B Van Sightings Program
The van-life community is built on curiosity and inspiration. Beginner van-lifers love seeing real vans out in the world, and longtime nomads enjoy spotting new builds, rare conversions, and creative DIY setups.
This program helps us:
- Build a community around Class B culture
- Showcase the diversity of vans on the road
- Inspire people looking to build or buy a Class B
- Highlight interesting rigs from all over the country
- Encourage connection among van-lifers
Plus, who doesn’t love seeing awesome adventure vans?
Tips for Class B Van Sighting Photos
You don’t need to be a photographer—just keep these simple suggestions in mind:
- Capture the van’s full body if possible
- Avoid license plates and identifiable faces
- Landscape backgrounds (mountains, beaches, forests) look great
- Bright daylight helps
- If the owner is nearby, feel free to ask if they’d like to be featured!
