This is by far the most practical layout i've seen , many other company have weired design such as burner right beside bed , super small toilet ,lots of storage drawer but no closet to hang , some of the clothes you just don't want to fold them into little cube , this is good .

Thank you for sharing this van. So many really good features. For the second video please include: 1) separate sliding screen door? 2) toilet type (cassette)? 3) power sliding door? 4) mattress width and length? 5) weight of build (e.g. w.r.t. to payload)? 6) is this 170 a 4x4? 7) are all windows 'aftermarket' (e.g. sliding door, side windows and, in particular, the rear windows?) (you said this started as a cargo van with 'no' windows)? 8) inverter size? 9) insulation (and looks like back doors are not insulated)? 10) the 'low profile' inside of the AC is great (so is the shower stall from VanLand) . Thanks for expaining below the solar system size below. All the best! Greg

The shower is AWESOME...enough space with a very clean look. The leather inserts are beautiful. The sound system is a big plus. The owners of this van is very fortunate. Looking forward to more practical, beautiful and homey builts to come. Well done.

You weren’t kidding when you said This van really does have everything. With that being said, you guys did a phenomenal job in using all of the interior space very wisely. At no point do you feel cramped while being inside. The fact that you have a lounge area that can sit 2 people very comfortably with an additional 3rd person if need be, without compromising the space of the galley area is quite amazing. I was also very amazed by how large the shower/bathroom area is and how it doesn’t feel like it affects the overall amount of space. When you compare these two areas with the Revel, it’s clear that Winnebago did not do them Justice the way you guys did with this build. Overall this van is absolutely amazing and Anyone who lives on the open road or does any kind of off roaring would be more than happy to own a rig like this!

How do you keep the watertank from freezing in cold temps? Why not more solar panels up top? One seems inadequate.
@VanLand3 жыл бұрын
To prevent freezing of the water tanks while in use, we include a hot water recirculation loop. Or, as with all RV’s, you can winterize the system. Some manufacturers use heating pads but being based here in California, this particular build won’t see too many freezing days. As far as solar goes, adding more panels means giving up the ability to move around on the roof rack. Plus most of the power comes from the alternator so adding another panel, while nice to max out the solar, is too big of a trade off vs roof access. Space is at a premium so we have to make some tough decisions.
@Moneyhan12 жыл бұрын
I would take the additional solar over the roof access all day long. Wouldn’t want to have to run the engine often to keep things charged up. Looks like more could easily be added if that was someone’s preference.
@RVD5422 жыл бұрын
How much?
@peggyjones392 Жыл бұрын
Beautiful build. I agree with some of the other writers…. why not more solar? In our 170 4x4 3500 Sprinter build (another builder) will have 4 of the Zamp 90 watt long panels on an Aluminess rack, Max air fan and Nomadic 12 volt AC. They worked hard to get everything on there by elevating the solar panels and placing them along either side of the fan and AC. We will still have deck space towards the rear of the van. No sky light. We didn’t want that because of heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter.

I just bought a 144" Sprinter build, but thought the 170" makes so much more sense. You can have both under-bed storage and a reasonable hangout/dining area. Unfortunately, the upgrade appears to cost $85,000 and 6-8 additional months. That's just ridiculous.
