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
To everyone out there thinking of buying a van especially if you are thinking of hauling freight , RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH !! I thought I knew what I was doing and bought an awesome Ford Transit 350 HD All Wheel Drive High Roof Long Wheel base Dually thinking I could haul any and all freight only to learn too late that YOU CANNOT HAUL FREIGHT WITH A DUALLY VAN !! THE WIDTH INSIDE BETWEEN THE WHEEL WELLS IS TOO NARROW !! Now I am trying to trade for a Sprinter . JUST TRYING TO SAVE OTHERS AGGRAVATION . I love VANLAND AND THEIR BUILDS JUST BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING !!!Than You for sharing !!
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.
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.
I concur about preferring extra solar panels in lieu of roof access. Most people aren’t going to us the roof access for cargo or sightseeing as much as they would expect. Better to use the space for solar, A/C, and vents.
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.
WOW!!!! very true the whole look of the van inside gives a open feel. It is perfect for me ...well thought through..all the windows the skylight and eye level switches are very practical. 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!
I normally am very critical of van builds but you guys have covered everything I would require if I had the money to buy one. You actually have a place to hang clothes and I have to say I want your van so bad. Perfect
Great set up, the best I've seen! Please go into more detail on the type of toilet and how it works. All the other systems are easy to understand (fridge, shower, solar, heating, water). There seems to be many options when it comes to toilets and you have a good knowledge of customer needs.
Ciao! Io guardo ogni giorno 3 oppure 4 video di van modificati. Ma fatto bene e bello come il tuo ne ho visti pochi. Complimenti! È stato fatto un ottimo lavoro!!
Great build, defiantly one of the best I’ve seen. For winter what do you do about the outdoor water tanks? Also did / could you add outdoor shower, and drop down table from the “kitchen” cabinet?
Is there an outside shower off the back? Can I get bug nets? What about the space under the bed from behind? This is exactly what I'm looking for! Nice Build!
Fantastic build! My favorite color too! Is there a sink in the wet bath? And please tell us how much this build-out cost. I am thinking of getting a ford chassis. If I can afford this build, I'm in!
Yes, there are three drawers under the bed accessible from the front. Also, we can do this with a full pass-through beneath the bed if you want to store longer items such as skis inside.
I really like it I’m very impressed by it, I would like to see a fan in the bathroom to pull out the air, compression in the front and back on the front tailgate and the back tailgate, I wonder if you could create something with the solar panel where you could have three solar panels up there but have a way to stretch them out when your parked, maybe you some hydraulics.. In the way that the water tanks are under the bed of the vehicle what about freezing
Awesome van. Literally the only thing I would change if it were mine (and it's very minor) for the cabinet with the gauges, I would make it glass or some other translucent material so I could see the gauges without having to open the cabinet. Again, such a minor change, but I think it would be next level.
Ok, this is my favorite overall build. I want more space but a smaller footprint than a big adventure truck. I would want a winch up front and maybe a swing out back storage box. Load up on more solar but this is the exact size I would love to have
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.
I would prefer a rear configuration of a backseat and side lounge seats that electrically converts to a bed. When not using it as a bed, you have extra seating while driving or lounge area when parked. Plus it would give it an open/more spacious feel rather than having a dedicated bed occupying a third of the van.
That’s a good design concept. But in reality, most people prefer a bed that is made and doesn’t have to be out away and set up every day. Having said that, I agree it gives a more spacious feeling. Thanks for watching!
What about insect screen door for the main door and perhaps the back? I would like to have a van similar to this but with mtn bike storage in the back underneath the bed. How long does it take you to finish a van once it is ordered? Do you have a waiting list?
Curious about the shower drain clearance to the water tank on the driver's side. I would love to see a detail about that. Really beautiful build. Thank you for sharing.
I love the van it’s nicely done. That said like a lot of subscribers we use own cell phone to watch TH-cam. The product titles get in the way and we miss important details. A much smaller font at the bottom would work for me. Anyway that’s just my 2 cents great video guys.
Im curious how much will this van cost with all the same features?? How do you manage so that the water tank doesn’t freeze if you take it on a winter snow camp?
As far as I can tell, custom builders charge $130,000 and up for this. So, add that to a $65-75k chassis. The total cost ends up being ridiculous. You can buy an off-the-lot/factory 144" version of this for $135,000. So, the at-the-dealership cost plus $10k in after-market upgrades. The 144" is a compromise in that you will lose storage or the hangout area, but is having both worth $80k more? That seem crazy to me. Hopefully, the volume brands will start building smarter 170s.
@@thedalillama I would say your pretty spot on , its alot of money to spend on a weekend camper. In my personal opinion, save half your money by buying a used F 250 or 2500 and put a used truck camper on the back. Bc at least you still got a truck to drive around
Might be nice if the toilet slid back under the dinette seat for when you want to take a shower. Just a thought. I wonder too if something could be done to give a bit more elbow room in the shower while it is being used, like a slide out, pop out or fold out sort of thing into the interior.
The nice thing about custom builds is you can have less or more of anything one chooses..I live in Africa i will use the top as a viewing deck while waching the lions at the water hole ..example. nice high up off the ground 😂
Is that an Inhabit Design Works floor up front? That’s what I used in my build and I absolutely love it. Plus, Brian and John are great to work with. The fronts are standard dimensions, but they can also do a full custom floor cover from the back of the front seats to the rear of the van.
As someone else had mentioned, how do you keep the water from freezing in the tanks, given that they're under slung, and apparently exposed to weather? If the owners want to go off road, how are the tanks protected? I live in the Northeast, and these are issues for me on a planned build.
Very nice van and a great job on the build. I'm actually interested in the name of the park where you filmed the van. Let me know please, as I might want to visit in the near future. Looks like a beautiful place. Thanks a million in advance.
Hey! Hi there guys ! If I asked you to built me another van like this one you are showing right on this video ! ! ! Would you get those water tanks and all fluid tuberies insulated ? You know, for low temps ; I'll probably be moving to Minnesota . . . . . with that also ; how do you do on the insulation in the walls through out all the van ? How would you describe it ?
Is there additional room on the roof for more solar? 100 won’t help much for a long off grid trip. Other than that I think it’s fabulous! Could you also show the garage, please? And most importantly, what’s the grand total for all this goodness??
I would say they did , stock suspension just can’t endure that change of weight especially when it’s constantly loaded and it’s obviously heavier than it was before
Beautiful! Love all of the white inside and the windows. It's good to know you can install AC and that you can repaint the van to any color. Just love it.
What is the cost, time to build, and overall outside length including spare tire, bumper etc. ? Also is one 100w panel enough? Time to charge with panel only?
2 person (leaving the kids at home) travel seating on a 170 and 1 single swivel seat, feel questionable. Roof module livability, mesh metal surface for sitting - ok, remaining good roof storage area limited around the vent, sky, a/c cut-outs, within rack side bars. 100w solar, powered sites only or running the engine with a good alternator upgrade is life + $ dc charge system. Choose between running huge A/C, and fridge cycles / AC accessories. 400Li min battery? Very interested to know the tar weight it came in at and MPg
Great van, however, unfortunately it is not well insulated. Top insulation is a must for very hot and very cold (-20ish F). Belly and tanks need be fully insulated and heated as well. Would this be something you could do?
Love the build and I enjoy watching all your videos. However, I do have one suggestion, when you are showing us the roof rack, ask your camper person to pan down and really show us the roof rack as you are talking about it. I mean, that was the whole point wasn’t it? It’s not that I don’t like you, but I really wanted to see the roof rack!
One of the best van builds ever, did you say what size inverter and is the water tank heated? Also on insulation I noticed the back door was bare metal, where did you insulate and with what materials?
Do you think you can build something like this but for a family with two kids? So requiring to sleep four people? We are actually looking for a 4x4 van which is family friendly
Nice complete build. Love it. But for me it’s missing one thing. A television lol…. I personally need that in my van. I’m a full-time rv’er. 2019 Midwest weekender
Cream and beautiful!! Great job! How much will it be as it is?

Great video! One thing I noticed is the slow fade of brightness during the headlines pop up. IMO just leave the text as you got it, but skip the fade darkening part. It takes away from the video, cuz im looking at you talking then all of a sudden it gets darker, I think my screen is dimming or something.
Hi! Do you know how much it weighs? I know this is a weird question but in the uk there are weight restrictions for each license, as I was wondering if you can drive this on a car license.
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 .

Hi. Love the van. Am doing a sprinter in the UK at the moment. How are you heating hot water for shower and faucet?
Heating system under the seat is very clever!

perhaps a small heating coil in the tank wired up to a thermostat?
Best setup ever! Toilet is very important!

Stunning little home on wheels
Hey! Hi there guys ! If I asked you to built me another van like this one you are showing right on this video ! ! ! Would you get those water tanks and all fluid tuberies insulated ?
You know, for low temps ; I'll probably be moving to Minnesota . . . . . with that also ; how do you do on the insulation in the walls through out all the van ? How would you

Can we see the Garage and power systems? Also do you have a site for specs? What drawer locks did you use?
Nice work you guys, this is beautiful Van!
thank you so much!

Too bad couldn't incorporate pushout windows for cross vent when AC not wanted, or when light raining.
Very impressive. What is the loaded weight of the van, water, fuel, and all? Did you modify the rear suspension?
I would say they did , stock suspension just can’t endure that change of weight especially when it’s constantly loaded and it’s obviously heavier than it was before
Beautiful! Love all of the white inside and the windows. It's good to know you can install AC and that you can repaint the van to any color. Just love it.
Yes! Thank you!
Love this Van... How difficult is the Artic Tern Skylight to install?
What is the time frame for your builds at this time? And where are you located? That is a beautiful build exactly what We are looking for!!
What is the cost, time to build, and overall outside length including spare tire, bumper etc. ? Also is one 100w panel enough? Time to charge with panel only?
I really like the design layout.
I just love this! Very beautifully done! Could the shower and the commode be made into two separate compartments?

Thanks for the tip!
Meh..... Very basic
Ah
Somewhat related to cost, what was the total labor hours involved on the build?
Lovely, great idea with the leather. Where'd you find the interior lighting love those!
Do you have a comparable 144 version? If you eliminate the indoor shower and use a cassette toilet the difference in space could be achieved.
Yes we do but just like you said, you will lose the shower stall and probably the wardrobe.
What's under the bed from the back doors? Did I miss that? Is there a "garage"?
So impressive! Well done to the entire team on this build, and shoutout to Katie for the awesome camera and editing work :)
Thanks so much! 🙈
Beautiful Van, waiting for your next video.
One of the best van builds ever, did you say what size inverter and is the water tank heated? Also on insulation I noticed the back door was bare metal, where did you insulate and with what materials?
Do you think you can build something like this but for a family with two kids? So requiring to sleep four people? We are actually looking for a 4x4 van which is family friendly
Absolutely! Check out the smart floor for easy seat additions and seat removals. They also have a bench seat that coverts to a bed
Nice complete build. Love it. But for me it’s missing one thing. A television lol…. I personally need that in my van. I’m a full-time rv’er. 2019 Midwest weekender
That is a beautiful transformation !!!
Thank you for the kind comment!
Cream and beautiful!! Great job! How much will it be as it is?
Great video! One thing I noticed is the slow fade of brightness during the headlines pop up. IMO just leave the text as you got it, but skip the fade darkening part. It takes away from the video, cuz im looking at you talking then all of a sudden it gets darker, I think my screen is dimming or something.
How did you do the faux subway tile shower? I'm using the same shower in my build.
Some people like the look, other don't. There are other styles in the same type of material to choose from. I think it looks kinda cool.
Is There An Socket Converter For Foreign Power Sockets Charging And Or Use
❣️👋🏽❣️
Great and beautiful build. Is the toilet a cassette toilet or full flush? Thanks
How can i get or purchase this exactly van? It is very beautiful.
Hi! Do you know how much it weighs? I know this is a weird question but in the uk there are weight restrictions for each license, as I was wondering if you can drive this on a car license.
