[@michaelgiorgio7447]

Exterior of this van is amazing!

[@mbridger04]

Wow... looks great! Love all the storage and the dual options for water! Counters are beautiful and the lazy Susan for the toilet...brilliant! Nicely done!

[@emmotors]

🙏

[@jasonw3303]

Ive seen about a million van builds this is one of the best

[@detonator620]

Amazing car-house! Visually just UNBELIEVABLE!!!

[@waltere.mellin3537]

WOW! You purdy much nailed the layout I've designed for my van build. Plus some extras on the outside that I didn't know about. Awesome build 👍

[@emmotors]

Thank you 🤙

[@robthetindog8218]

Nicely done! & love the colors; get so sick of all the white vans!

[@wardhuff5683]

That looks incredible. Well done.

[@emmotors]

Thank you!

[@NOVEMBER5TH2024]

Very sharp!!

[@davimelej8392]

I like see the 4×4 conversion....thanks 😊

[@rigwellmade]

Super rad build. Great job guys!

[@bebechu8421]

Clean & fantastic build, badass 💪

[@joesondag6801]

Yep. Awesome Van. No doubt.

[@livingworkingoutsidebox]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@edysinsimon8646]

I like that tire/rack carrier unit.

[@emmotors]

Yea its really nice! Its from @owlvansengineering

[@iandavies1221]

Love this van.

[@robbiemulholland8412]

Fabulous van looks killer....👍

[@emmotors]

Thanks!

[@anserkhan9430]

Sounds like this guy liked the greenery before doing the video ???? Of course I meant the scenery!!!! Nice build 👌!!!!

[@kierancasey1135]

Only thing is on tight trails Side ladders are a snagging point

[@hillbilly59apache59]

Wow yes great setup 👍👍

[@emmotors]

🙏

[@p4pking393]

The stuff of dreams

[@emsmith2519]

Love the van!!!!! Can't see the taillights very well. The little moveable tabletop desk was mounted in a way that wouldn't allow access to two drawers. Otherwise I love it!

[@johansjoberg1931]

Awesome van - very inspiring - 🙏

[@emmotors]

Thanks!

[@ntran2012]

Very nice build!

[@emmotors]

🙏

[@NoProDad]

very clean look! 👍💯

[@emmotors]

Thank you! We agree!

[@josiem1681]

The outside is so nice . I’m not a fan of the inside . Great 😊 job

[@donb.puryearjr.8699]

I agree, great exterior......interior doesn't appeal to me. But to each his own......

[@ftkinsella]

Very well thought out. Is there any reason you didn’t go with more watts on the solar panels using the same footprint? Love the colour. Cheers!!!

[@fitzgoblin81]

Love this

[@scottnormand5858]

Great looking build. What is the butcher block material? Love the color😁

[@emmotors]

Birch Butcher block with a dark stain! Thanks 🙏

[@Mauronic100]

I appreciate that you listed out the components. Surprised to see 3 SPODs in the van. Are you using those for all the interior light controls as well?

[@emmotors]

You're welcome 🤙they control pretty much everything!

[@Mauronic100]

@@emmotors I guess it has its pros and cons. Sometimes a physical switch for a light is the fastest and most intuitive way to flip a light on. Why do you guys like them?

[@emmotors]

That is why we did 3 so no matter what part of the van you are at you have access to all switches. Convenient. But you can put physical switches everywhere too. The 4x4spods require a lot less wiring for us too.

[@christopherlucas1395]

Wow! Just the exterior alone must have cost a grip!!! 😳

[@emmotors]

It definitely did! 😜

[@youngmers]

where did you install the water tanks and what size? thanks

[@emmotors]

In one of the rear wheel well boxes. 20-22 gallons

[@jonathanmarc8629]

Shit well done sir!!!

[@ericvelasquez1282]

170 build and no place to peepee poopoo is a fail

[@milesfong3901]

You did show the dry flush toilet underneath the kitchen cabinet.

[@vincenttamesis1]

nice

[@uranus0007]

Good 👍 set up but wet bath is missing

[@emmotors]

Most our customers do not want a full wet bath.

[@frenchwv]

Water tank size? What kind of battery set-up?

[@emmotors]

24 gallons with the water heater. Running 400ah Battleborn Lithium in this rig.

[@craigmccall7450]

Just had my second seizure at 6:30 from the strobe action! It's ok...I had a helmet on.

[@justsmy5677]

Is the bench seat DOT certified for passengers/seat belts? Is the back shower hose long enough to hang up on top of door? Thanks.

[@emmotors]

Bench is not DOT but the hose is long enough!

[@iandavies1221]

If I wanted this van? Ball park figure.

[@Painfulwhale360]

I went to your website and see that you have those hit the ground running sprinters for sale. Are those fairly popular for you guys?

[@emmotors]

It can get you on the road until we can schedule a full build if wanted!

[@vincenttamesis1]

i’m curious . can these vans fit inside a car wash to get it cleaned after off-roading ? or how do you get to clean these vans?

[@emmotors]

They fit in your car wash bays but not through the automatic washes. Truck stop truck washes work great too!

[@robcordts1976]

great build what size rims and size tires?

[@emmotors]

Thanks! These are 275/70/17

[@Joevideochannel]

can you tell us again who makes the overcab storage shelf?

[@emmotors]

Shuksan Vans!

[@MrJamesmazza]

Yes please! Where can I buy one?

[@marcusallenyt]

Love the van . what is the exact colour ?

[@emmotors]

[@gregorylichtenson757]

Sweet..how much.$

[@Frankiez220]

Lots and lots of money

[@braker3961]

What is the paint code on this?

[@kenkong4545]

What was the cost of this van? I like the whole layout...

[@emmotors]

Give us a call 208-853-2886

[@richrappa7906]

Beautiful van. Can this be financed?

[@emmotors]

Thanks 🙏 Yes they can be

[@Photosbydrew]

Want to explain how you get the bike up there????? lol and an e bike at that

[@emmotors]

Step ladder lol

[@johngrant1337]

Why no flare side ?

[@emmotors]

Customers did not want them. Plus on a 170 they are pretty small vs a 144 wheelbase flare.

[@yvesstocky9936]

says "plug in eBikes: - opens USB ports. seems to be one of the commercial guys. technicians are at work. But otherwise, nice build

[@emmotors]

Haha yea we have usb & 12v plugs just opened the wrong one it sounds like lol. 110 plug is where they plug in to charge the e-bike though

[@SuperDesignguy]

Love to know the price LOL

[@50spudman]

👍

[@pedrohaonade531]

No bathrooms fail design and the board behind the driver seat is what for ? Even when is turn back you only can see the side door only. For the 170wb it is horrible design

[@emmotors]

This is exactly what the paying customer wanted. They love it. Thats all that matters ya know.

[@pedrohaonade531]

@@emmotors well, if it is what they want, what else can I say.

[@arturopalma7997]

You have zero inventory on your website

[@mikeanouk]

look that you are heavy with the Mercedes the Mercedes to have you rear ration the floor has a double step and height has 20 cm more with which it staggers like a flag the body that is quite good is that of the citroen jumper the peugeot boxer or the Fiat Ducato that body is lower and wider with which you can sleep wide in the mercedes can not sleep wide because you have to sleep along which it loses that space and if what we want is 4-wheel drive because it is time for the Mercedes to put the batteries eh and put a hybrid engine of 200 hp as for example the Toyota RAV4 with front wheel drive and two electric motors to the intelligent rear wheel drive and in this way we have a body that we can sleep to the widths that does not have a second step which is lower in height. and by the way that Mercedes since it pays so much to put quality paint, I have a white Sprinter and it gets rust points without any blow

[@outlaw7x77]

Wait...this is the customers third van build you've done for them? So either they are dumb and dont know what they want, or you sell/build things a customer doesn't need. Wtf??? Or: the customer is ridiculously rich and is easy to take advantage of.

[@emmotors]

1st van was a 144 for him & his work & he meeded a little more room. She replaced her camp trailer with a 170 van for her & her son & their dogs for when he is gone & on the road.(which is most of the year) Then he upgraded to a 170 wheelbase van here after we finished his wife's and he was able to see the space difference.

[@6ft8incyclist]

That bicycle sitting up so high in the backend is screaming nothing but trouble..Why would you want a bike sitting that high and face that way.

[@emmotors]

Some people like it up out of the way. It is too high in my opinion but if you are not removing often not as big of a deal.

[@6ft8incyclist]

@@emmotors My co concern is a tree limb taking your bike while driving down the road. Nothing like leavings 3 thousand dollar bike behind.

[@ejcena4305]

@@6ft8incyclist 3000? Probably multiply ✖4 and add some.
