FULL VAN TOUR - Mercedes Sprinter 170 Extended 4x4

[@sw5824]

I love it, the electrical system the air system, reworked suspension, solar, the bed system, rear tire and outer storage box, job well done

[@nickh3533]

First thing I noticed is the white lines showing around the door/side window, needs the door shuts wrapping!

[@filterfreephotography]

I was just about to say the same thing. I thought maybe my KZbin settings were wonky.

[@deathngravity]

excuse my ignorance... why not just paint it instead of the wrap?

[@PWCDN]

@@deathngravity paint is more expensive and you can't get matte/chrome colors I think. Also if you're leasing from a dealer, you're not allowed to change the car's color. wrap also protects the paint and cheaper to repair especially if you need to return the car after the lease is up. might be other reasons but this is what i know.

Near the end of the video you mention a new flywheel. Did you actually pull the engine and put in a new flywheel??

[@TitanVans]

@@kleinbiker1 you don't have to pull the engine, but you do have to take the whole front end apart, bumper, grill, radiator, etc. To get access.

[@travisfinlayson4137]

worst wrap ever!!! the whiter door jams steals all your attention both when the doors are closed or open

[@filterfreephotography]

For a build that cost upward of $20K (my guess), a better wrap that included door jambs and edge seams of the trim or a full paint job should have been done to this rig.

[@jess4mathews]

I was wondering if that was intentional...could that possibly have an effect on 'radar'???🤔

[@clintroberts1]

@@filterfreephotography only $20k. You’re way off on this build cost estimate.

[@filterfreephotography]

@@clintroberts1 Yeah, I agree. I forgot a zero and should have added a plus after the $20K... $200K+. I know it is still low, but depending on the quality of materials, it could be a lower cost build. If you look at the wrap, I would not feel confident about the quality of the remainder of the build, if you know what I mean.

[@chrisnoren777]

What's wrong with it?

[@DreiBeinTobi666]

Maybe it depends on personal preferences, but i think it is just not done properly and looks like „come on, i don‘t like white, can you just give me a grey outside? We‘ll shoot a Video in 4 Hours...“ „Yep, i can make it look grey, but i won‘t be able to Cover the inside, the edges and folds properly. Just don’t Open the doors for the Video and stay away More than 6 meters while shooting, so no one will recognize it.“

[@acbad434]

You can see all the white in the lines between panels. If that’s what someone was looking for I guess but if they didn’t specifically ask for that it doesn’t look good at all. I’m can’t imagine what they paid to have the wrap stop short on the hood.

[@mikeallensonntag]

I'm going to say this... I've looked at van builds from major rv companies and I was like you got people on KZbin building better layouts there is no way I would spend 90+ k at general rv on van. You guys are doing it right the layout is absolutely excellent one of best ones I've ever seen. If I were to change anything I would get rid of dinner area and have proper dry bath. Then use fold up table or something using rotating front seat to get eating area back. This customer you know has reason for all that seating but rest of van man you guys did a awesome job. Specially being able run ac through the night without any external power.

Personally would’ve left it white like mine. I put some accent vinyl stripes down the side though. This is an awesome rig otherwise. A lot of “influencer” types are putting tons of home building materials in their vans, like plaster and tiles. Also, cheap but heavy plywood as opposed to the composite material used in all your cabinetry. Sure some of them look good but THIS is all you need. Barebones and functional. I imagine this rig doesn’t have a lot of rattling going on as it’s driving along. Super nice!

If the rear of that van can support a queen size mattress then I’d rather have a full time bed with a super comfortable queen sized mattress like a Beautyrest or Tempurpedic or whatever..

[@jackpruet554]

What is the heating system. Living in co we do alot of shoulder and winter camping. No bugs!

[@Max-Bliss]

Great van, in mine I had a water heater plumbed in to the engine cooling system that was a heat exchanger and electric so that after just 20 minutes driving, the water was fully heated and stayed hot for over 24 hours and therefore no need for electric but handy to use electric for extended stays, also you may want to look at diesel cooking to save electric use. Awesome ideas you guys are using and very innovative, well done guys.

[@TitanVans]

We have used diesel cookers and decided against them. 30-45 minutes to heat up and longer to cool down. For the water heater, cutting into the coolant lines voids Mercedes warranty. We opt to keep the two systems separate and just use the electric option. This can still be used while the engine is running, though does require you to turn the heater on, and not use any of your battery power as it will be powered by the alternator electricity.

[@Max-Bliss]

@@TitanVans Thank you for the reply, very informative and I see the issues, you have it covered. Great vans, I wish you guys every success.

Is this your van build? I would like to do the same for my van

[@lincolndave1966able]

Some nice ideas incorporated into this build. Personally I thought it looked a bit dark but that may have just been the camera lighting. It's a very masculine design. Only a male would have a fabric splashback to a kitchen area. That will become damp with sink water blowback, splashed with cooking oils and absorb aromas from steaming pots and pans. I like the look of the fabric as it's ties in, perhaps overlaying it with tempered glass would be a practical solution. Overall it pretty impressive and the base vehicle is a beast of a machine. I am glad we don't really need ac in the UK, they seem power hungry items. I would kill for a 1000W of lithium battery capacity, that's just fantastic but UK prices are eye-watering for big lithium batteries. Great job, great rig.

[@jess4mathews]

Excellent planning, crazy versatility, definitely designed for arriving heavy😉

[@nicolathonathan770]

Thanks for the idea😀 I’ll build an exactly same rig.

[@pamelacleveland5330]

Overall I like most of the layout and build ideas in this van and it gives me some ideas for a future van build for myself. However, there are a couple of negatives for me and one of them is the wrap which is not impressive. The other negative is the dark interior which makes it seem like a cave as opposed to a pleasant living space. It's a small space to begin with and lightening up the interior paint and finishes would make it so much more inviting and livable. Just offering a bit of constructive criticism from a female perspective.

[@chrisgrover507]

My OCD drives me crazy seeing the white lines from all the door cracks. Should paint the door jams black so you don’t see white lines every where against the dark wrap. But cool rig.

[@steveatx8295]

sweet Van. putting rounded corner on the door cabinet lasts longer and is more comfortable, rounded edge on the over head cabinet reduces injury from the all too common head bumps, Matte Black would roast you here in Texas.

[@john-5246]

HI have been dealing with tourism and traveling for over 30 years. and recently more and more attention is paid to traveling by van. As for the Mercedes company, I have nothing to add because it is one of the best automotive companies, I used these cars myself when models such as 207d, 208d, 508d, or sedan 223 models from the 1990s were on the market. The version for sleeping and traveling, due to the power and 4x4 drive, with a raised suspension, is perfect for long and even mountain trips. If I had any comments, it would be a very modest shower room without a sink, a bit too cramped and without a window, and with a very primitive toilet. The bed is suspended very high, because as I can see you have a lot of cabinets under the bed. I wonder some of them could not be placed under the rear seat for passengers (eg batteries). It has no space for bicycles, at least two, although maybe they could fit under a fold-out bed?
