Composite, aluminum, powder coating, counter top options, awning windows, fiber glass, large fridge, wet bath, full length mirror, sleeps up to 4, full queen bed... Sensational!!! Thanks for the tour!
Loved, loved everything about it until ……. I saw the Mercedes emblem. I will not pay the ridiculous prices that Mercedes wants for regular maintenance and repairs. 😢
Easy to develop and engineer, customize with an unlimited budget.... The real magic is producing a vehicle within a reasonable price range with decent end product quality, warranty, and profit margin for you. There will always be the buyer who wants all the best of bells and whistles.....kudos to that customer and your company meeting those needs.
Freaking brilliant! We find this really inspiring. As a fellow builder, my takeaways are that the woodwork and features are top notch. We love that it’s fully off grid capable. As an ABYC certified electrician, the electrical system is impressive and means business. The styling is sleek and rugged. It’s got internet, hydronic heating, interior and exterior storage, AWD….the list goes on and on. If you’re thinking of buying a conventional RV, just know that you’re not comparing apples to apples. This is the real deal. The west coast is known for this sort of thing but I’m proud that the East coast and especially NJ is on the map for RV’s of this caliber. Well done Steve, and the team at Nomad RV’s
Everybody else on TH-cam is fired. This guy should narrate and show all campers from now on. Fully informative, well spoken, concise. Beautiful. Oh, sweet rig too,. I did not read all the comments but what is the LxWxH of the full rig? EDIT: It's on their website for those curious. Body height 10’ 8”- Body Width 7’ 2” - Overall Length 23’ 6” Including Rear Storage Box.
I won't be ready for a couple of years, but this is perfect. Maybe, Maybe, Maybe there will be more advancement of EV's, hopefully Mercedes will be there. I would love to see this platform on a Mercedes EV in the future, seems doable. Thank you for the excellent presentation.
@@nomadrvs Bed is quite isolated from EMF's (branch circuits) and although panel is near bed circuits can be managed if necessary. Fridge is in brilliant location and super large, chassis is 1 ton which appeals to me and certainly in terms of capabilities. Simple stow away range to maximize counter use AND convection oven! Battery capacity, shell construction, 4 season and heating system appears to be truly winter capable ... there's a ton of genius and appeal to how this was put together. Very nice!
This is just phenomenal!! No wood, no rot. 1 ton. I love all of the power, off grid capabilities for those times we want to drop off for a week. Didn't sacrifice toilet/shower or fridge space for longer stretches of time. Also appreciate the true queen, husband is just a hair over 6ft. This is crazy capable and gorgeous to boot. One of the best we've seen!
As someone who does vehicle recovery to fund my off-road addiction, I hope tons of these things are produced and sold. I think I might be able to afford a gold toilet in my van !
To eliminate partner crawl over consider a north south twin bed floor plan. For a less claustrophobic feeling open up the inside by eliminating the full height hard side shower. Consider a shower pan/ toilet base with flip up top and magnetic ceiling mounted shower curtains. How does the battery location affect the departure angle?
I'm waiting for a pullout stair with a landing and steps parallel to the rig. Likely to the rear. Tons of innovation by this RV builder already. Thanks Patrick.
WOW! Kudos on a spectacular build! You obviously know camping and the many deficiencies of poorly built campers presently on the market. Love Love Love that it is a TRUE off-grid 4 season camper! I'd like to see: 1. Hard surface counters 2. Flat instead of shiny powder coat to cabinets 3. Inside dump switch for the gray tank 4. Divider to separate living area from cab when you need to block off cold/heat 5. TV option. Overall, very impressive build of which you should be very proud! Nicely done!
Solid surface options and we are changing this one to it. Interesting idea on the flat cabinet. We are thinking about finding a large enough valve for dumping. Working on the divider and Rv option as well. You hit it on the head of things we are already looking into and have been in the works. Appreciate the feedback!!
@@nomadrvs I work in a similar industry here in the UK. Happens all the time, you build a stunning vehicle then something extremely small catches someone’s attention and it’s game over 😂😂
Hey Patrick. If possible, when you take us into the rig for the first time, could you do a quick 360 tour of the interior before the owner starts the tour? I think it flows better and more naturally that way, because that's what the first thing anyone would do when they enter a vehicle, take a full look around. That would be great! I love this rig, so clean on the outside and in.
@nomadrvs I liked the storage in the back for electric bikes, the huge fridge, shower and powder coat interior. Overall you really focus on quality and function
Nice purposeful rig. Has a Hymer euro look on the outside. What I like: 1) Composite. 2) Massive 48v electrical system. 3) Garage. 4) 50 gallon fresh. 5) Super singles for improved off-roading 6) Aqua hot heating. 7) Large fridge. 8) Tern Overland windows/doors Critical feedback: 1) Garage door/inside not large enough to store 2 bikes? 2) Gloss interior roof and cabinets, should be flat. 3) Battery outside! This could be a performance issue with hot/cold weather. 4) Preference to build on Sprinter 170 chassis to allow more interior/exterior space. 5) No comfortable lounge space, especially as driver/passenger seats are not part of the habitat! 6) Shower stall looks a bit tight. 7) Need to know more about the manufacturer of those composite panels and construction + insulation used. 8) Need to know more about how chassis flex versus habitat box is attached and issolated - please explain more @2:50. Overall an excellent rig. Congrats
I must say, thats the top in its class that I've seen so far, only not sure of the aluminum cabinets. It reminds me of file cabinets. I also like more cook top space. My all time favorite, is still, the 3 or 4 burner propane Wedgwood range with a small oven. But i am definitely interested in your company and her creations. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
The cabinets do look sturdy, I guess with all the power aboard, and the heating system (which I don't quite understand), Propane ain't necessary. I'm used to 80's old school RVs. But I am impressed.
@@nomadrvs The cabinets were really cool. I assumed they were wood, had no idea they were metal. It was a nice touch and they will last forever with little to no wear.
@@nomadrvs Also if you ever build a 19 foot version with reduced features (no shower, smaller refrigerator, etc.) in the 160K-170K you could reach a whole new customer base and you wouldn't really have any competition that I am aware of.
Wow!!! I was giving the Sprinter EKKO serious consideration, but the few I seen in person already had some yellowing of the glues on outside panels, and some other minor fitment stuff… I’m happy that I seen this. Quality and fitment looks awesome.
Worst off is their entire quality. For instance their current solar problem for last 4 months which finally has a fix for the recall. Thanks for the kind words! 🤙🏼
@@smitty_schmitz If you ever have a need to come to NJ we'd be happy to show it to you. Or if you want to do a facetime call to check anything out that is certainly an option as well.
I love the compact size, massive battery/solar systems, large fridge and water tank, hydronic heat/hot water, off-road capable, nice suspension upgrades, well insulated, plenty of storage, easy to clean light weight cabinets, etc. This is exactly the type of van I want to retire in. The only thing I'd definitely change is to move the starlink and heating pad switches so they are easily accessible at all times. I'd also like to know the exact payload capacity as well as more detail into how it's build/assembled/wired, etc. I did see some exposed wiring in the wheel well, which isn't good, but hopefully that will be addressed in future production models. I'd love to see a manufacturing documentary on how this van is actually put together...that's a great video idea for you Patrick!
Correct this is the prototype and there are some changes for production. Just weighed it this morning and still need to weigh myself but looking like 2,085 OCCC
Love the build you ticked all the boxes , I would add a extra alternator for charging the batteries and cut half the solar then it would be perfect. Awesome job 👏
@ My favorite feature is the huge power bank to start. But what sets this build apart is the compact powerful size to go off road, huge fridge, study aluminum construction, tech integration, storage on a less then 28ft platform and sleek design without a huge cap over the drivers quarters. Just to name a few. Very nice Nomads. Keep up the great work!!!!
Great tour, amazing rig. Got to see the Euphoria in person and meet Steve at Overland Expo East. It was definitely a show highlight for us. There has been a ton of thought put into this build and the price may not work for everyone, but for what you're getting you are not going to find this quality / feature combo for any cheaper. If I'm missing something, I'm all ears...
This is awesome I just wish it had a way of having three separate bed systems.. although I guess if your kid was small enough which mine is not they could fit in that upper cabinet above the cab.. we have a five year plan I'm a retired truck driver you know I got to go all over the country Canada and Nova Scotia Alaska entire lower 48 got to drive them but never got to stop and enjoy anything my grown daughter has never seen the country at all and then my grandson who will be 14 so she's going to homeschool him and we're going to take off we were looking for something like this that can house all three of us and still go anywhere and everywhere we want during any season but nobody's wants to share their sleeping space.
Love this floorplan and how airy it feels inside! I've been looking at other B+ vans. Any chance of getting this onto a Ford Transit chassis in the future?
Very cool. I'd be a little worried about the plywood used along the top of the rear cargo storage area. I imagine a lot of folks will use that as wet/dry storage and any condensation would eventually rot it out.
Amazing rig! 3 questions. 1) Gas mileage? 2) I know the Sprinter 3500 has a GVWR of 11,030. What’s the dry weight? Cargo carrying capacity? 3) I need a TV! Any way to lose a few of the upper cabinets at the end of the bed to mount a TV?
One last thing. I’ve seen a few truck campers that have the bed mattress on gas struts with 6-12” of storage room underneath the mattress. I think it’d add quite a bit of storage. I’ll be in the market for something like your vehicle in the next not too distant future. You’re definitely at the top of my list!
Thank you. We are the biggest fans of hanging it there and taking up space. So we just put the roll inside when using the bathroom. We might do a flush mount that encroaches about 1/2 the roll or so inside in the shower and rest ends up under the sink area with a cover. Not sure.
Great presentation! This is a very tempting option. One question: I see the rear panel angled up to help departure angle. But I wonder if the huge battery box below affect the departure angle a lot. What’s the data on approach / departure and break over. Thanks.
The battery bank is very similar to the panel angle. Maybe 1” lower. However with that said we are looking to move them inside as we believe there is room now that everything is laid out in the real world scenario
@@paulbailey5915 yup! It was the original plan then I didn’t think it worked so we designed the heated box. But now that it’s built it will work to have them inside.
33" tires are totally adequate for taking this to it's limit. If you can't get somewhere with these tires you are probably going to need a tow from being stuck some where. Watch Matts off road recovery to see many people who thing their big rig is off road capable
Thanks for covering these types of builds. I do wish you shot with a slightly wider angle lens. Its kinda hard to really get a feel for the space unless youre at one end looking back.
@nomadrvs really like you're vids, just thinking out loud as a videographer. It's a balance though because if you go too wide it also misrepresents the space. But I love watching these because I have been trying to design my ultimate van build. Been gathering ideas for about a year so I can really maximize the layout. Each tour gives me ideas.
Really? Could have used a US chassis but chose a German one. I don’t care where something is made. Just want quality at a fair price. Enough of the US made as much as possible. Much more was possible.
Very nice design. After living in my Sprinter, I definitely wouldn't want to deal with putting blackout covers on the windows in the front cab every night. Definitely needs a partition door between the cab. And not sure if it's possible with the design of the table but a pass through from inside to the garage would be nice so you can access some things without going outside. Great job!
Great specs, love it. This has made my very short list. 2 quirky questions: Are those outdated USB-A's (hope not) or (C = more future proof) how many watts output? i.e. for fast charging Mac pro or similar laptops etc? Are the aluminum available in white? thx. Kudos on all your systems.
i am afraid to ask the price, gas milage? demensions of the back storage how wide the opening? my bike is trike and is 31 inche wide on back and 80 iinche total lenght. 45 inche high, total, nice looking rv.
Introductory pricing is mentioned in the end of the video. $199,500. Mpg is per user. I got around 17. The trike is super high. Won’t fit. For reference the interior is 78” so your trike is higher than the bed counters etc.
A lot of features which would make this my choice over the Ekko, only would prefer smooth finish on cabinets maybe light gray color, and cabinets delete over bed.
That is the expedition vehicle for the common man and thank you for doing it gonna be calling you guys very soon. Gotta set up my VA mortgage and buy your van or classy whatever
Yes Yes Yes. I owned a Tofino for 2 years. This van might be the most complete, well thought off in the smaller class B+. I was as impressed by the vehicle as the tour. Very well done....Yet, as others have said, the price is way too high for me. Looking back, my Tofino by Pleasure-Way was maybe the best middle ground: solar panel, lithium battery, gas heater, 2 burners induction cook top, sink, bug screens for $75,000.00 out the door. What kind of world do we live in that a $220,000 class B van should be alright?
What is the price? I've looked everywhere, and they don't even hint at the price range online. My good friend owned a popular car lot for 43 years. He said he never advertised the price because he did not want to scare anyone. Could you get them in the door first?
@ first of all I’m not middle class or high class I’m poor so I drive & live in a 2003 Chevy Express conversion van. Saved quite a while to buy it. I built it out myself. There is a video on my channel. I live in poverty and not by choice but by extreme health issues. It would be nice to have that vehicle just for the bathroom alone. Maybe I’ll hit the lottery😁😁😁😁😁🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐
This tics a lot of boxes for us! Maybe just became a favorite. One thing we’ve learned, you’ll never really know if you love it until you get in it! Where can we get an in-person viewing? We are in north-central WV.
The $199,000 isn't terrible. But the metal cabinets, while no doubt durable just strikes me as garage like rather than home like. The sound of metal is irritating to me. I think a cream or white color would be a little better.
Excellent videos here at 'New Jersey Outdoor Adventures' The 2025 Euphoria is very nice!!! 'Nomad RVs' could help save 8 billion people and 8 billion pets!!! Am I the only one getting my volume turned off? It has happened in the past, then the volume suddenly turns back on 'by itself' so maybe someone is hacking my computer. Best Wishes to All
Patrick.. is the camper shell made by those Girls you featured from Toms River? I'm retired from Sunbird/Camping World Lakewood RV sales. I think this IS the perfect rig..!!!!
This looks like the Ekko Killer a lot of us have been waiting for. A couple of questions / thoughts… looking forward to the cargo carrying capacity being posted. And would you please consider locking or relocating the gravity fill? And SO HAPPY to see that the steps are NOT powered. Wow, the venting above the shower door near the galley exhaust fan… brilliant! And is there a grey dump switch inside?
Gray dump is manual. Potentially could be powered via a switch if we found a ball valve large enough for decent flow. Where are you thinking for the gravity fill?
@ Thanks for the quick response. The gravity fill could be as simple as some sort of locking cap, or potentially behind an access door (e.g. the Ekko has a door where all plumbing is accessed). I wish I could be more specific, but I suspect that this will be an issue with buyers (27 North had a similar concern for some early models, and ended up putting the gravity fill behind a small locking access door).
@ That would be ideal! And I’m looking forward to hearing about the cargo carrying capacity… the Ekko (both) are roughly 1,500 lbs depending on builds, which is pretty marginal with a 50 gallon fresh tank and all that storage. I’d love to see 1,600+ lbs so owners can take advantage of all that storage space. And thank you for the quick responses… you guys have been on the short list for our next van (or small C) for a while, I look forward to hopefully working with you in the not-too-distant future.
For starters they are built strong. But also they are attached to the walls for the shower and inside cabinets has hidden sound deadening and carpet lined bottoms making the insides more quite than wood
$199,500 is actually a great deal given what is out their. Absolutely brilliant!
Pretty cool
I appreciate the kind words!

There has been a ton of thought put into this build and the price may not work for everyone, but for what you're getting you are not going to find this quality / feature combo for any cheaper. If I'm missing something, I'm all ears...
It’s a great RV!
Thank for recognizing it all! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
I absolutely love it. So perfect. Just can't afford it.
Thank you! Did anything really stand out?
Can anyone afford it :( its beautiful but not realistic for the majority of people.
You did a Great job in designing and craftsmanship. Nothing else needed for a weekend or several weeks of adventure.

This is awesome I just wish it had a way of having three separate bed systems.. although I guess if your kid was small enough which mine is not they could fit in that upper cabinet above the cab.. we have a five year plan I'm a retired truck driver you know I got to go all over the country Canada and Nova Scotia Alaska entire lower 48 got to drive them but never got to stop and enjoy anything my grown daughter has never seen the country at all and then my grandson who will be 14 so she's going to homeschool him and we're going to take off we were looking for something like this that can house all three of us and still go anywhere and everywhere we want during any season but nobody's wants to share their sleeping space.
This is fantastic! Love the design and layout. Will you have power in the rear storage to charge electric bikes, boards and stuff? Great job Nomad
Eventually
Yup!
Crisp, clean design. Love it! Like the metal cabinetry.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Appreciate that! It's nice to see people appreciate the small details.
Love this floorplan and how airy it feels inside! I've been looking at other B+ vans. Any chance of getting this onto a Ford Transit chassis in the future?
As of now there is no plan to be making it on the AWD ford transit
It's really nice and well thought out. Yet the price is almost what a conventional house would cost depending on what state you would be.
Highly depends on where you live. But it’s a house on wheels 🤙🏼
Very cool. I'd be a little worried about the plywood used along the top of the rear cargo storage area. I imagine a lot of folks will use that as wet/dry storage and any condensation would eventually rot it out.
It won’t be there on production models. Though this is sealed and it wouldn’t have a problem that section will be changed.
Amazing rig! 3 questions. 1) Gas mileage? 2) I know the Sprinter 3500 has a GVWR of 11,030. What’s the dry weight? Cargo carrying capacity? 3) I need a TV! Any way to lose a few of the upper cabinets at the end of the bed to mount a TV?
Okay! Kept watching and you sort of answered my questions. All except CCC and TV. Thank you!
@@michaelwoo4279weighing it soon and will have that number but it’s going to be a ton! And yes we could do a TV without question.
One last thing. I’ve seen a few truck campers that have the bed mattress on gas struts with 6-12” of storage room underneath the mattress. I think it’d add quite a bit of storage. I’ll be in the market for something like your vehicle in the next not too distant future. You’re definitely at the top of my list!
@@michaelwoo4279 you’d lose interior height above the bed since I cant go down much due to the systems.
It's fantastic! Truly impressed by this rig.
@@marjoriehall9984 thank you
Beautiful......makes me want to take the leap!
Thank you and appreciate the kind words.
I hear ya!
Looks awesome! One question, where is the toilet paper roll? I didn't see it anywhere.
Thank you. We are the biggest fans of hanging it there and taking up space. So we just put the roll inside when using the bathroom. We might do a flush mount that encroaches about 1/2 the roll or so inside in the shower and rest ends up under the sink area with a cover. Not sure.
Top notch! Well done 👍
Thank you 🤙🏼
I like this one by far ❤
Thanks!
I'd like to see a shelf or some hooks in the shower to place shampoo/soap, somewhere for TP, and a hook just outside for a towel.
Good thoughts 🤙🏼
Fabulous Windows, AC and frig!
Thank you!
I like how the back angles up!
Thanks!
Great presentation! This is a very tempting option. One question: I see the rear panel angled up to help departure angle. But I wonder if the huge battery box below affect the departure angle a lot.
What’s the data on approach / departure and break over. Thanks.
The battery bank is very similar to the panel angle. Maybe 1” lower. However with that said we are looking to move them inside as we believe there is room now that everything is laid out in the real world scenario
@@nomadrvs Great idea to move the batteries inside.
@@paulbailey5915 yup! It was the original plan then I didn’t think it worked so we designed the heated box. But now that it’s built it will work to have them inside.
I love this unit. It checks all the boxes for what I would want in an RV. Are they being sold manufacturer direct or will there be a dealer network ?
Currently we are doing manufacturer direct to the customer. This way we can offer more options color wise.
Love this thing. It would be next level with BIGGER more aggressive tires and a cool wrap!!
Bigger than 33” AT’s? How big we going 😈😈😈
33" tires are totally adequate for taking this to it's limit. If you can't get somewhere with these tires you are probably going to need a tow from being stuck some where. Watch Matts off road recovery to see many people who thing their big rig is off road capable
Wow!! Awesome rig!! It must be heavy with those building materials. 17mpg… 4 cylinder? 24 gal tank? Still, thanks for sharing! Looks amazing!!
It’s a 1 ton chassis. Turned to a RV. You should see what other RVs get mpg. This is much better.
Thanks for covering these types of builds. I do wish you shot with a slightly wider angle lens. Its kinda hard to really get a feel for the space unless youre at one end looking back.
That’s funny. After shooting the video, Patrick brought up the point of a wider angle lens.
@nomadrvs really like you're vids, just thinking out loud as a videographer. It's a balance though because if you go too wide it also misrepresents the space. But I love watching these because I have been trying to design my ultimate van build. Been gathering ideas for about a year so I can really maximize the layout. Each tour gives me ideas.
@ awesome! 🙌🏼
Sick ride man. I want one
What did you like most about it?
@ it being compact without having to make sacrifices. Still learning about RVs but this channel helps
@@dripptavisI appreciate you noticing my vision on doing exactly what you said. Thank you 🙏🏼
For 200k what is the warranty? On everything?
Awesome rig. NJ built, nice.
Yes, it is!
Thank you! 🤙🏼
Awesome build - this thing is sick. American made as much as possible.....nice :-)
Thanks for the appreciation!
Really? Could have used a US chassis but chose a German one. I don’t care where something is made. Just want quality at a fair price. Enough of the US made as much as possible. Much more was possible.
Wow that's really great. I would love to have one.
It's awesome, right?
Thank you! What was your favorite part?
Best thing I've seen. Finally something worth my money
@@joellynparks7805 thank you
I need and want one of those. It's awesome.
Thank you!
Very nice design. After living in my Sprinter, I definitely wouldn't want to deal with putting blackout covers on the windows in the front cab every night. Definitely needs a partition door between the cab. And not sure if it's possible with the design of the table but a pass through from inside to the garage would be nice so you can access some things without going outside. Great job!
We are still working on a thermal divider curtain.
Between the dinette and garage is all the systems and water tank etc so can’t really access
@@nomadrvs thanks for the reply. I'll be looking to upgrade in the future and will definitely consider one of your builds.
@@MikeChampionTravelsready when you are 😎
Great specs, love it. This has made my very short list. 2 quirky questions: Are those outdated USB-A's (hope not) or (C = more future proof) how many watts output? i.e. for fast charging Mac pro or similar laptops etc? Are the aluminum available in white? thx. Kudos on all your systems.
i am afraid to ask the price, gas milage? demensions of the back storage how wide the opening? my bike is trike and is 31 inche wide on back and 80 iinche total lenght. 45 inche high, total, nice looking rv.
Introductory pricing is mentioned in the end of the video. $199,500. Mpg is per user. I got around 17. The trike is super high. Won’t fit. For reference the interior is 78” so your trike is higher than the bed counters etc.
That is nice. Well done.
Thank you. Favorite feature?
A lot of features which would make this my choice over the Ekko, only would prefer smooth finish on cabinets maybe light gray color, and cabinets delete over bed.
There is a gray option available. We could eliminate the cabinets over the feet of the bed. There is still decent cabinetry for items then.
Nice rig well thought out. Can the dry flush toilet be substituted with a cassette toilet?
Yes. Or composting. So 3 toilet options
Yes, absolutely
The best engineered mobile small home on the market.Designed for real life,not just show.
Thank you! 🤙🏼🙌🏼
That is really nice. Great build for a rv much better than the big manufactures. Jellybean outdoors❤
Thank you! 🙌🏼🤙🏼
Is there a way to close the pass thru?
In development
That thing is sick!
Thank you. Best feature?
@ the size, simplicity, and quality of
Wow! Just like an winnebago Ekko ,but without the issues i hope😂
Far from like it but I see what you mean. For instance their cab connection is plywood. And we all know the cheap materials/products used.
That is the expedition vehicle for the common man and thank you for doing it gonna be calling you guys very soon. Gotta set up my VA mortgage and buy your van or classy whatever
Ready when you are 😎 we have a broker as well for financing
Teşekkürler görüntüler güzel değişik model
Yes Yes Yes. I owned a Tofino for 2 years. This van might be the most complete, well thought off in the smaller class B+. I was as impressed by the vehicle as the tour. Very well done....Yet, as others have said, the price is way too high for me. Looking back, my Tofino by Pleasure-Way was maybe the best middle ground: solar panel, lithium battery, gas heater, 2 burners induction cook top, sink, bug screens for $75,000.00 out the door. What kind of world do we live in that a $220,000 class B van should be alright?
It’s a class C but the vehicle itself is nearly $75,000 to buy. Just the cab chassis to start with. ☹️
Well engineered I like how you said you set up the troughs for the utilities piping or electrical wiring
Thanks!
Would have loved a lift bed
Neat idea!
I would never ever be able to afford one as much as I love it 😢😢😢
You never know!
What is the price? I've looked everywhere, and they don't even hint at the price range online. My good friend owned a popular car lot for 43 years. He said he never advertised the price because he did not want to scare anyone. Could you get them in the door first?
@ $225,000
@ first of all I’m not middle class or high class I’m poor so I drive & live in a 2003 Chevy Express conversion van. Saved quite a while to buy it. I built it out myself. There is a video on my channel. I live in poverty and not by choice but by extreme health issues. It would be nice to have that vehicle just for the bathroom alone. Maybe I’ll hit the lottery😁😁😁😁😁🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐🚐
I need a back window just to gaze out and make it more stealthy, all one color then I’d be interested.
Easy modification
Back window optional.
Really nice. I’ll never be able to own one but it is nice.
You can if you set your mind to it
wow, super cool.
It is a really great little RV!
Thank you! What is your favorite part?
This tics a lot of boxes for us! Maybe just became a favorite. One thing we’ve learned, you’ll never really know if you love it until you get in it! Where can we get an in-person viewing? We are in north-central WV.
This demo model is in NJ.
The $199,000 isn't terrible. But the metal cabinets, while no doubt durable just strikes me as garage like rather than home like. The sound of metal is irritating to me.
I think a cream or white color would be a little better.
Plenty of cabinet colors to choose from
Very nice. Checks all the boxes!
Thank you! What is your favorite part?
Excellent videos here at 'New Jersey Outdoor Adventures' The 2025 Euphoria is very nice!!! 'Nomad RVs' could help save 8 billion people and 8 billion pets!!! Am I the only one getting my volume turned off? It has happened in the past, then the volume suddenly turns back on 'by itself' so maybe someone is hacking my computer. Best Wishes to All
Awesome. Like a Mini Uni Mog
Indeed! I joked it looks like a van and a unimog had a baby
It's all about functionality.
Patrick.. is the camper shell made by those Girls you featured from Toms River? I'm retired from Sunbird/Camping World Lakewood RV sales. I think this IS the perfect rig..!!!!
No, different company
They went under. Chinese components too.
I appreciate the kind words! Especially knowing you’ve seen a ton of rigs over the years
This looks like the Ekko Killer a lot of us have been waiting for. A couple of questions / thoughts… looking forward to the cargo carrying capacity being posted. And would you please consider locking or relocating the gravity fill? And SO HAPPY to see that the steps are NOT powered. Wow, the venting above the shower door near the galley exhaust fan… brilliant! And is there a grey dump switch inside?
Gray dump is manual. Potentially could be powered via a switch if we found a ball valve large enough for decent flow. Where are you thinking for the gravity fill?
@ Thanks for the quick response. The gravity fill could be as simple as some sort of locking cap, or potentially behind an access door (e.g. the Ekko has a door where all plumbing is accessed). I wish I could be more specific, but I suspect that this will be an issue with buyers (27 North had a similar concern for some early models, and ended up putting the gravity fill behind a small locking access door).
@@Harp4Hand I thought you meant location. We plan on doing a locking door for security
@ That would be ideal! And I’m looking forward to hearing about the cargo carrying capacity… the Ekko (both) are roughly 1,500 lbs depending on builds, which is pretty marginal with a 50 gallon fresh tank and all that storage. I’d love to see 1,600+ lbs so owners can take advantage of all that storage space. And thank you for the quick responses… you guys have been on the short list for our next van (or small C) for a while, I look forward to hopefully working with you in the not-too-distant future.
I’m wondering what was done to keep the metal cabinets from rattling and also to dampen sound from the large metal walls in the shower.
For starters they are built strong. But also they are attached to the walls for the shower and inside cabinets has hidden sound deadening and carpet lined bottoms making the insides more quite than wood
very impressive. Love our Storyteller LT but..,
Thanks! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I think it's a great option for a smaller class C!
