    Lots of idle judgement in the comments... they built their dream home and did it for themselves not for us! Good for you guys for chasing down your dream and making it your reality - it is a truly jaw dropping rig, thanks for giving us a tour! Miles and miles of smiles ahead for you and the doggos! 🤙

    Killer Power system! Personally if it was going to be my home/full time dwelling, shower is an absolute must. We are starting a van build right now and don't want our travels and plans revolving around us having to be near a Planet Fitness or wherever or near someone we can mooch one from. My solution was a 30x32 shower pan that has teak "decking" I built that fills it and is flush with van floor level. Shower curtain hanging from a track in ceiling. That area is normally going to be a sitting area with a Lagun table so no wasted, "dedicated" space for shower only

    Thanks so much for turning us onto Elementum Adventure Vehicles! I drove down there, talked to Ben and they just seem to get it. I'm so bummed we had someone else build our first van but I learned a ton and if we can sell it, we will have EAV build our next one.

      Hey Martin! First and foremost, thank you so much for commenting. We can believe our video inspired you to inquire with EAV 😊 We were actually just in the shop yesterday dropping off Waimea for the week and we learned you lived nearby us in Seattle. We're currently back in the city and would love to just extend an invite to meet/chat about our experience if you the time or interest! Let us know! We can coordinate and connect via email or message us on our instagram (@waimeawanders). We would love to connect!

    The BEST VAN.
    I have watched:
    •Leisure travel vans.
    •Storyteller Beast.
    •Revel from Winnebago.
    •Skyloft Van from Redtail Overland.
    But yours is SUPERIOR.
    -Water capacity.
    -Electric Energy.
    -Off-Road capabilities.
    -Comfort.
    -Internet connection.
    You guys NAILED IT!!!!
    (All those other Vans in the market try...... But you and the company that helped you build that Van, you JUST DO IT.)

      Hey there! We do have a dry flush toilet and outdoor shower in this build. The shower is always a topic for debut, however, we lean 'no shower' inside of a van build. Just preference in regards to space, water usage and access to gym showers! We find it would just become storage if we had on and no shower keeps our layout super open 🤷‍♀️

      Great question! We actually came from a classic murphey bed in our last van. We tend to prefer things stationary most of the time but love the option to open up the space if we need to! We really wanted both the large garage for storage AND the height of a traditional stationary bed. The trifold allows us to have just that, with also the option to haul larger cargo if we need to! It's a win win all around in our opinion 😊

    Aloha no from fellow O’ahu ex-pat, now in Seattle with my Ohana adventuring out of our T@B Teardrop as (every) weekend warriors. Congratulations on your Waimea build and being a kid that grew up driving from Kaimuki to the Northshore to surf or boulder-climb Waimea, you 170cm buildout is just unreal access to nature that is unbelievably detailed-thought-out. Holler when you’re in Seattle as it would be a blast for us to see you guys on some beach or stream nearby our teardrop site. Aloha and good luck balancing work/adventure life! 🏄🏼‍♂️📸🤙🏼 #MalamaPono

      Wait- an ex pat from Hawaii now in Washington? Isn’t an ex pat someone who moved from their native country and is living somewhere outside of their country of citizenship? But Hawaii is part of America. I’m genuinely asking too.

      @@corinnelsmithyes technically an ex-pat does mean country. Hawai’i was once its own Kingdom and we are the only State with a Palace. Many people don’t think Hawai’i is part of the USA. When I traveled to France and studied the University I studied had an International talent show of all the students’ home countries. They split USA and Hawai’i since we have the Spirit of Aloha and act differently from many from the mainland.
      Hope this helps.

      @@sharonsegal9784 It totally depends on the user. Sure, we would use the shower every now and then, but for us it's not worth the space. Maybe we will change our minds in the future but we feel super confident in our layout and the functionality of this build for our use case. Showers will always be a topic of debate in the van industry 🤷‍♀️ Happy travels!

      As a Caucasian we don’t really shower as much. So i totally agree why they didn’t prioritize it. Now a poc likes to be clean daily so that wouldn’t even be a thought to not include shower.

    Crazy van. Can’t wrap my head around the power though. Maybe a huge power bank but the re charge of it sounds crazy with so little from solar. We have a lower power consumption in a 3 bedroom house! I would find that van a bit nerve racking in a true off grid setting. Great tech and design but feels like it’s a bit miss match.

    Still no EV charging solutions for large RV lithium battery systems in US. Most high end B vans in China now have EV fast charging ports to charge their 48V 10kwh battery system quickly.
