Hands-down, this is one of the most built out Campervans I have ever seen.
In today’s video, we feature Dominic and his full-time van dwelling that has endured a New Jersey cold winter. The van is built out by 27 North to the custom specifications that he required in his van downtime. He rents it out which helps pay for the monthly payments.  this fan features a mega lithium battery system, 3000 W inverter, a rooftop full of solar, a gasoline generator, a gas, heating system, a full shower with cassette toilet, a dishwasher, a electric oven, and many more super features.

I’ve seen more than a few Van builds, this one by 27°N is EXCELLENT! Dishes are a pain in a van, and to be able to stick them in a dishwasher, do a quick rinse, wash them all and sanitize them when full is Genius. The drop down bed with the dining/work area underneath is the perfect use of space! My only question is if that wonderful 🐶 comes with the van? Can we rent it for a weekend? 😊

Man that van build is perfect!! Surprisingly spacious inside. And that kitchen got all the appliances you need. Although the dishwasher is rather excess, but then again why not. The seating area looks quite cozy under the raised bed, which in itself is a space saver. And the bathroom is nice too. The cassette toilet is a nice touch too - especially when you grabe the cassette from the outside. And the fact that the van got both solar and a generator well thought too

I have abused the "this is the best van I've ever seen" comment many times, but this IS the best one yet! Surprisingly big inside, everything you need and more (dishwasher is an excess, in my opinion, but heck, why not). The fact that the heater and generator tap onto the gas tank is perfect, the auto on for the generator is an excellent plus! The fridge is one of the largest I've seen in a van of that size, thirty gallons of fresh water is amazing, big sink, excellent shower and shower head, even a roof top deck...perfect van! My only concern is the under-body generator; the worrier in me think is too low, but you wouldn't take that awesome van off road anyways. Perfect for the city and the coastline!!!

Also, would love to know more about the elevator bed, the glass breaking alarms, and the oven details. I love this video, and not once am negative about who built it, but how it was built and the unique touches given it, which gets MY creative juices going for my own build. 😊 Thank you for putting out another wonderful video.

We chose a standard floor plan however (which we highlighted at the top of the video), we modified that plan by adding the elevator bed and extending the lounge area to 32 inches deep. We eliminated the dinning table and put two table mounts. We also added additional outlets and a water outlet for a Washing Machine. Overall, the basic floor plan is pretty standard.

The most water I have seen in a van was 75 gallons. Almost all have 40 gallons an under. The most I’ve seen in a bus was 400 gallons 40ft bus. The average bus has about 100 gallons sometimes 200. Some of these small shuttles vans have 12 passengers. 12 x200 pounds is 2400. I saw online these vans can carry 6400 pounds. Why is there not more water? You should be able to put at least 100 gallons in these (4) 25 gallon water tanks evenly. That’s only 800 pounds. Buses should carry 200-400. The wonderland comes with 200 pounds & can be custom made for more. It waste too much gas to go get water. If these carried more water many more people would be interested . They need vans that carry more weight specifically designed for this. Water trucks almost the same as buses can carry 50,000 gallons or more. I get people don’t want to drive with this but driving you would not stay full. You would only fill up right before boon docking.

It was brick in Jersey this winter. I was also out west and it was so cold the grey water tank froze over. I definitely recommend a thermostat in any van build. It did an amazing job keeping the inside of the van very comfortable regardless of the weather.

So what does that do to your insurance when you rent out the van ? If they get into an accident you’re the owner and you can be sued if it’s the drivers fault. Can you explain please.

All in $200k. Comparing a camper van to a standard house with land is comparing apples to oranges. When designing a van build you need to balance function, style, and overall cost.

Did he say he worked in retail? How in the world did he afford this vehicle?…. I think this is a beautiful van and a beautiful build, but my brain can’t wrap around the amount of money spent to live in a vehicle that for every mile you put on it, the wear and tear depreciates to the point it eventually it has to be replaced. If you’re driving around and seeing various places, 100,000 miles can be easily put on a vehicle very quickly……this is why I haven’t made a van build commitment.

Hey! Yeah I worked in retail for 28 years and was able to purchase 3 properties, one which I was living in. So I decided to purchase the van so I could rent my current property and experience the van life. I had intentions of renting the van at some point, but everything changed rapidly. So the goal is to generate income while it's getting wear and tear and sell it at some point.

I know it's interesting, and I'm sure it makes good content, but sometimes I get tired of the over the top build outs. It becomes more like Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. Kind of like having a million dollar New York condo that you can take with you wherever you want. All well and fine to look at, like a TV show, but I'm done after a short while.

This van has everything! With the counter top extension there’s a lot of surface space and also a coat and jacket closet. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a van with so many security systems including his German shepherd. These vans are great for one person or a couple that can handle tight quarters. Thanks Patrick and the owner for showing it!
