LUXURY VAN TOUR | “Odyssey Lite” | Best 144” Layout 🚐

[@lucasravizza]

Odyssey Lite is my latest van build 🚐 What do you guys think?

[@james99118]

Looks amazing, curious about the price points

[@carefulpilgrim]

love it! You didn’t mention a price…

[@OrikzHD]

Easily the best 144 build I've seen. Its amazing how you have cramped all that functionality and comfortability in this small van. Cant wait for your course!

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you! I am still surprised that it all fit 😅

[@rinoNY]

this is THE best I have seen so far. Great Lucas. You have made a jewel. Congratulations

[@ricardopulido3956]

This guy builds the BEST vans!

[@dkosawa]

love this layout! I'm a huge fan of the 144 size and you've come up with a way of utilizing every square inch so that you don't have to sacrifice any creature comfort that you would get with a 170. Bravo!

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you so much! Love this little van 🚐 fits in a parking spot!

[@lkazanov]

Absolutely beautiful! And nicely done. I for one enjoy the concept of swiveling the front seats back to create another focal living area. But I guess to each their own.

[@willystand6369]

That heating system is next level. Only .15 gallons per hour? That’s crazy efficient.

[@lucasravizza]

Yea it’s no joke and it cranks in the winter

[@bemo8421]

This is the best van luxury van I’ve seen

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@GeorgeHollywood]

Your design for Odyssey and Lite are absolute perfection, the best I have seen so far. Congratulations!!! I love DIY and I build everything for myself, so I cannot wait to see your detailed build guides and learn more.. the more detail you include and the longer the videos are the better.. I learnt so sooo much DIY from KZbin it's the best learning resource.

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you! I hope to go really in depth

[@dtadventure4x4]

I think this is one of the best, if not the best van layouts for the 144. Love it. Well done!

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@marryamakbaar3014]

Agreed 💯

[@lilyLily1824]

I love this one too! Awesome! I’d want mine to have the skylight above the bed! Being a solo female it would make things a lot more comfortable in case I got the knock! I could answer from the top and not slide my door open, to whom ever. It makes perfect sense in my head! lol! Plus I want to gaze at the stars and I’m terrified of ladders! I can’t wait for the build! Very exciting!

[@mikefranks4528]

The level of detail and consideration for ultimate functionality in a van is incredible! After seeing this, Ravizza is definitely my favorite van builder.

[@chasejmartineau]

Excited to see you build out this new van for all of us to learn from. great for the van life community, your builds are always amazing!

[@lucasravizza]

Thanks 👍

[@carefulpilgrim]

I really like how you thought of so many pluses

[@pomegranatesoul]

So impressive. The best I've seen.

[@southbayproducts5371]

Nice work keep up the great work love your work and layout God Bless

[@melissavaldez2409]

You do amazing work! Beautiful build

[@gj0628]

Best 144 I’ve seen amazing rig great job 🏆

[@tonydefusco9060]

Bonjour.👋 Merci pour cette belle vidéo. Ton aménagement est juste incroyable. Tout est vraiment bien pensé et fait avec soin. Un travail de passionnés. L'emplacement de la douche 👍, l'évier face à la table de cuisson 👍 l'éclairage des meubles 👍la clim, le chauffage, le petit garage à l'entrée 👍 l'installation électrique 👍 ... Tout est parfait pour moi 💪 Mais j'habite en France 🥺 Encore merci

[@1990chinito]

This is the best 144 sprinter build. Very well thought out. I would have loved to see the toilet installed on a drawer slide and come out of the closet.

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you! I’ve put a lot of thought into a sliding toilet for this layout and it just didn’t make sense this time. It would eat into the already valuable storage space. Plus if used for vacations, some people can actually take it out

[@TheRMUPs]

​@@lucasravizza Maybe if it slid into the gear storage? You would only be losing a little off the bottom. Most gear would still fit. Either way great build

[@joelaimone1325]

OMG!! Absolutely GENIUS! What a design. Your brain works entirely different than any non-major manufacturer I have EVER seen.

[@lucasravizza]

Wow thanks, I appreciate you saying that!

[@topher83]

I’m the same size as you and have worried about being too tall for one and you just put out the perfect build in the smallest model. Well done brother. Will be in contact in the future.

[@kevinp_25]

This is awesome. Beautiful build as always and impressive work getting all that stuffed into a 144. 👏👏

[@DarrLaw]

One of the best van builders out there!

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you 🙌

[@Buck0seven]

Super excited you are going to continue posting here! I really enjoyed your original Odyssey vlog.

[@tomastelensky-vlog8723]

The bedlift aligning with the sofa rests is genius!

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@bethdixon501]

Brilliant size exceptional build…just my size. 🥳🥳🥳

[@IIIUMlNATI]

Incredible service youre providing over this next year. Thank you sir.

[@sebastianpage4507]

I think this is the first time I've ever really wanted to live in a van. Sub gained, gotta see what else you're building.

[@lucasravizza]

Thanks man!

[@fairtaxguy60]

Awesome for a 144"! Imagine what you could do in a 170EXT! Maybe even a full dry bath!

[@southbayproducts5371]

After watching you are so close to 100% detail as I see exposed cables on the roof that will be weathered in time you can add some type secondary exterior protection and a bet cleaner look your work is awesome hold a new level as you do hope to do some business down the road

[@Buck0seven]

Man, amazing job on this 144! Everything so well thought out and executed. Everything has its place. Most cut out showers in the short wheelbase Sprinters, instead you used it as the perfect buffer between the cab and camper. Top quality products used throughout. 👏👏👏👏👏

[@lucasravizza]

Thanks! It was a tough layout to figure out but happy with how it came together.

[@trina9523]

Fantastic! Thank you for the full video. This is finally a 144 that I love. I don’t want bigger and thought I’d be forced to do it. Im not ready to buy but when I do, I hope you’re still building

[@lucasravizza]

We’ll be here!

[@Michal.Aniol91]

Thank you for your work, it's one of greatest layout I've ever seen 💚

[@DB.-.]

Luca sei il più bravo tra gli allestitori di camper van

[@shankyjs]

can't wait for that tutorial, I wish I could just travel and build it there with you lol.

[@lucasravizza]

Let’s make it happen! Hopefully you can follow along during the course

[@shankyjs]

@ hey man, don’t threat me with a good time you might be looking at your new volunteer 😂.

[@SmilingSolution]

Very Nice build. Thank you for sharing. The best I've seen so far.

[@lucasravizza]

Wow, thanks!

[@JohnvanGurp]

Incredible… just amazing design and completion skill here… You’ve thought of everything!

[@lucasravizza]

Appreciate it

[@dfastor9959]

Great video and great van! The algorithm got it right, this time. So glad I watched and liked (and subscribed).

[@lucasravizza]

Glad you liked it! Thanks for subscribing.

[@rossfrasermclean]

YAS !!! You guys are all on fire ! Love this in the 144 specifically ! Layout, finish & utilities all top tier ! Congrats fratello ! Genuinely impressed !!

[@rossfrasermclean]

Excited for your course too ! Ooft.

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you man!

[@younessbourass6847]

amazing work brother! for me too its “easily the best 144 build ive seen” just got myself a 170 Sprinter that im totally excited to build out for the next summer to travel with my wife and by then 1yo baby. cant wait for the course! subscribed :)

[@lucasravizza]

Good luck on the build!

[@TheSpiritusGaming]

Dude I have been looking forward to you making a guide about your van conversion. This is awesome! I'll be following you closely, while building my campervan!

[@lucasravizza]

Glad I can help!

[@ianbarr5110]

Best I've ever seen.

[@loneranger5928]

Absolutely brilliant design looks great 👍

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@bernadettewolf8069]

Beautiful

[@mpcinlv]

Just WOW 🎉

[@LetsrunaBoat]

Man I want one of these vans soo badly

[@Globetravelers2.0]

Best layout on 6 meters long!!! A real masterpiece! Personally, i would juste add a large skywindow into the shower to increase the height. :) Congrat's mister Ravizza!

[@lucasravizza]

That’s a good idea! Thank you

[@roguevancompany]

Amazing job🎉

[@lucasravizza]

Appreciate it!

[@amgguy4319]

Another excellent build!

[@platforma1974]

apart from the finish quality that is amazing, I am so impressed from the layout. congratulations on this project it is really a piece of art.

[@lucasravizza]

Wow thank you!

[@RocketSauce666]

Awesome build! Really love the walk through shower and the Happijac bed set up. I just subscribed in order to see the educational videos coming next. Not sure if it's impolite, but if so, I'd be happy to DM vs. share in comments... but this van is essentially what I'm hoping to get with maybe a few cosmetic differences... I'd love to know what you would charge to build something similar in 2025.

[@cjermo]

Crazy impressive space efficiency! 👏

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you!

[@Bodirevolution]

Do you also build on the Ford Transit?

[@lucasravizza]

Unfortunately not

[@DarrLaw]

@@lucasravizzaI think that’s great. I Love that you’re focused on a niche where you’re pushing the boundaries of perfection. Keep it up!

[@max5183]

Amazing build quality and craftsmanship. I only never understand the lifting beds. They waste so much head cabinetry space? At least if im traveling with 2 people i feel like we are missing so much storage for clothes

[@apprilwine2329]

Always love your builds,gotta ask...whers did you buy the large fern pic?

[@lucasravizza]

From Portrilux

[@myhificloud]

Well done.

[@maggiecalderon490]

Loved that van. Give us an idea what this costs, is this a 2024?

[@phantp78]

Damn I love the layout. Wish the fridge was bigger and bigger water tank.

[@lucasravizza]

In the 170, there’s 42 gallons of water, and a 140 Liter fridge

[@Espo78]

Gorgeous work and the walk through shower is genius. Judging on the quality I’m sure it’s not cheap. What is the range of cost for a build like this? Do you work up and down on options to work with budgets?

[@lucasravizza]

Thank you! We can work with you on pricing. This particular build is pretty spec’d out so plenty of room. Send an email: [e-mail]

[@stevescheinblum6895]

Are you able to heat the shower area up enough to create a dry sauna?

[@lucasravizza]

It can get pretty hot. Up to 80 so not quite

[@barryw8174]

This is great

[@DesertHeat12]

WOW! Two questions. Can that roof rack accommodate folding hammock bars for roof top sleeping? And the beds on the inside, can the top one be stopped mid-way to allow bunks so both beds can be used at he same time? The most inclusive van I have seen!

[@lucasravizza]

Hey! Yep the beds can be stopped half way to create bunk beds but you’d have to throw kids up there. And I would assume that yes you can with the hammock

[@DesertHeat12]

@@lucasravizza Are you saying kids because of tight squeeze between bed and ceiling? I have a gf visit me when I am camping and I am NOT interested in sharing a bed with her, lol. That van has it all, just trying to figure out two seperate adult sleeping spaces! :) I am in the market after the first of February!

[@jordanhanson316]

Clean! Prefer this lighter colour over the grey, wouldn’t even bother with textured walls to me it doesn’t add much imo. What did you use for bench tops? The matt black looks neat

[@lucasravizza]

Yea the light color scheme is pretty nice. I personally still love the elegance of the darker one. The black laminate is Fenix laminate

[@jordanhanson316]

@ thanks!

[@electricdesign7078]

Do you have a link for he projector??

[@DavidDiesel-x2k]

when does the course start? I have a awd 144 ready to go!

[@lucasravizza]

It starts early next year around March!

[@DavidDiesel-x2k]

@@lucasravizza thanks!

[@GnarlesBronson]

Awesome build and layout. Curious what the weight comes in at…

[@lucasravizza]

I think it was around 7,500 lbs

[@GnarlesBronson]

@@lucasravizzanice 👌🏽

[@CarmenandCamillaAdventures]

Amazing 🤩 Cost 💲 Please 🙏🏽

[@lucasravizza]

Base builds start at $225,000 and that includes the van

[@tomastelensky-vlog8723]

As a 6'3'' I've been also thinking about the flares (bump outs) but I just haven't seen a single interoir design with them that would look good. It usually goes with these narrow little prison-like windows and that just doesn't appeal to me. Anyone has seen them with big windows (at least 110x50 cm)?

[@lucasravizza]

Yea I wish they had bigger windows too. It might be a structural and weight issue for the bump outs to hold a bigger window. Although if that isn’t true, you have your first product

[@rodhoover9158]

Mastery

[@curtisshepherd2990]

No running boards?

[@lucasravizza]

I have the electric ones

[@MannyWC]

All I would change would be to add 1k w of solar. 🎉

[@lucasravizza]

That would be nice! Doing a solar sail in the next one

[@MannyWC]

@ awesome! Can’t wait to see the build of the new rig!

[@michealigbo8052]

How much is the Van?

[@lucasravizza]

Send me an email! Link is in my bio

[@spunkysandoval]

Wow, how much does that thing weigh? It's cool to have all of those features, but at a certain point the van isn't fun to drive.

[@iamb2348]

i like. how much.

[@randyoneal677]

How much?

[@lucasravizza]

Base price is $225,000

Good work but, subwoofeer is at wrong space. The big vibrations can make negative effect on electronic circuits. I wouldn't take the risk of the problems that might arise because of this.

[@lucasravizza]

Good thought but rolling down the road is probably a bigger problem long term so I like to check the lugs one a year depending on use

[@PavewayJDAM]

6'1" 200lb. No bruh, better than average, but you aint big. Nice build. 144 present lots of trade off choices.

[@lucasravizza]

Was waitin for a response like this haha

[@airwess3369]

Whats up with the word charcuterie lately? Never in my 54 years have i heard people using this word. No all of a sudden, everyone is saying it online and TV and commercials.

[@lucasravizza]

According to ChatGPT: Charcuterie boards originated in 15th-century France, initially showcasing cured meats. By the 17th and 18th centuries, cheese was added, becoming a staple in European holiday feasts. The concept of pairing charcuterie with cheese gained global traction in the 20th century, particularly in North America, where they appeared in social gatherings and fine dining. Their modern resurgence, with expanded elements like fruits and nuts, became widespread in the U.S. during the early 2000s due to social media and culinary trends
