In this video I compare my old Volkswagen T6 campervan with my new Weinsberg Carabus Fiat Ducato based campervan to see whether upgrading to a bigger van was actually the right decision.

For years my VW T6 took me on countless mountain adventures — small roads, wild camping spots and quick overnight trips before heading into the hills. But recently I decided to move to a bigger campervan built on the Fiat Ducato platform.

More space.
More comfort.
More gear storage.

But bigger isn’t always better…

In this video I look at the real differences between a small campervan and a larger campervan for the kind of trips I do — mountain days, wild camping, and long drives into remote areas.

I compare:

Driving on narrow mountain roads

Parking and access to remote locations

Living space and comfort

Gear storage for mountain adventures

What surprised me most after switching

The big question is:

Have I made a mistake moving from the VW T6 to a much bigger campervan?

If you’re thinking about upgrading your campervan — or choosing between a compact van like the VW T6 and a larger van like the Fiat Ducato — hopefully this video will help you decide.
