We've got a Dodge Grand Caravan AWD we sleep in, off road, at times. Pretty useless though unless the ground is perfect. Very little ground clearance. One high stump or root and you're in trouble. Not a problem with a Suburban or K5 Blazer.
I don't know what kind of van you're going to find with ample off-road ground-clearance and 28 MPG. A Chevy Atrovan has better then average clearance but only gets around 19-20 MPG at best. Mazda also made one, and it only got around 18 MPG.
An AWD Astrovan with a raised-roof seems about the best option, other then the low gas mileage. We have a K5 Chevy diesel Blazer with a pop-up roof and works great for us. 4wD, high ceiling, one double and one single bed, refrigerator, TV, and plenty of 120 VAC power via a 4000 watt inverter and two deep-cycle storage batteries. Gets a best at around 17 MPG.
And yeah, a Dodge diesel 3/4 4WD truck with a slide-on camper and pop-up roof can get close to the same. But it's nowhere near as handy or compact.
