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!
So glad you enjoyed it so much!
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. 😢
@@dianalee508 there are independent shops that are much cheaper.
@ We’ve had an extremely difficult time in Houston finding one. 😢
Seems very expensive for this design. Aluminum cabinets and drawers are noise to the 10th power!
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.
Thank you!
Beautifully constructed, well engineered travel van. Just a dream for most of us mere mortals.
@@iansmith1556 thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
$199,500 is actually a great deal given what is out their. Absolutely brilliant!
Pretty cool
I appreciate the kind words!
Rvs are really expensive toys! 😮
Everybody else on RUclips 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.
hold me tight
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
Appreciate the love 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Best design and layout I’ve seen in a small package. Also AWD and decent clearance so you could actually get off road. Very nice!
I’m glad you agree!
I appreciate the kind words and glad you enjoyed it!
While this is a lot of money, even for someone who could easily afford this. It’s a better value than most on the market. This looks to be well thought out, with solid quality. I personally couldn’t justify something that will loose equity quickly over the years.
If you’re keeping one of these o the long haul, it makes total sense! Interested to see the future of this company.
Thanks for noticing! 🤙🏼
Best RV I've seen! You can see this was made to last!! Wish I could afford this!! You thought of everything! Beautifully done ♡
Thank you! That's the goal, to make it the best!
Thank you 🤙🏼
Excellent.
I like the way Patrick lets the person show their RV.
Lets them do the talking.
He’s good!
My eyes and head are nodding Yes, yes yes, must get. 😍I enjoyed the owner engineer builder and I also enjoy Patick's enthusiasm. It speaks volumes.
glad you enjoyed it!
very well done guys, love to see the progress in the industry over the last few years towards real offroad/4 season capable vehicles and entrepreneurs like yourself competing to give people what they actually want! love how you're offering most of this rig as standard equipment as well as the commitment to American manufacturing. well done!
Appreciate the kind words!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Never felt compelled to comment on an RV video. But holy smokes you guys have engineered an amazing product. Well done!
Wow, that's quite a compliment!
I appreciate the kind words 🙏🏼
Nicest package I've ever seen .. absolutely stunning and elegant NICE job!
Thank you! What was your favorite part?
@@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!
@@riunashlie6462 I appreciate all the feedback 🤙🏼
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!
@@tjme thanks! 🙌🏼
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.
Good ideas! And thanks for checking it out and the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it
WOW WOW WOW !!! This looks PERFECT for me (18 years in a class B+ 21ft Chinook, 18 months full time now). Yeah, it looks PERFECT! edit. Watching for a second time, specifically looking for: a) type of cook top; b) if tri-way reefer is an option & c) window-view while seated and laying in bed. p.s. I doubt I’d have any use for the AC. edit again: WOW! My Chinook has serious envy. I’m +99% boondock, need large bed, need solar, want ground-clearance, storage, & need a method to bring dual sport motorcycle. This rig is a huge winner!!
Portable induction cooktop is included. We don’t do propane so it’s always a 12v fridge. Which it has so much power that’s the way to go. Optional additional large rear wall window.
Sounds like the perfect rig for you.
@nomadrvs Thanks!
I always love what Steve designs. But this is awesome. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you!! What did you like the most on this one?
A really perfect RV! Extremely well designed and constructed!
Thank you!
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!!
great build. I had my wife watch it and the first thing she said was a bigger sink lol. We are looking to step up from our truck camper and this looks like a good option. thanks for the USA focus.
Thanks for the feedback! They’ll take it into consideration.
Yes we are more than likely doing that for all builds
This is an absolute beauty! Congratulations, Norm. And great gas mileage for this kind of vehicle. Well done!
It is a fun little rig!
Glad you enjoyed it 🤙🏼
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.
That does sound like an epic idea!
I think this might be the first rig that i can agree that it's worth the price tag
Glad you enjoyed the video 🤙🏼
Sooo very proud of you Steve!
I’m still waiting on God to send me a buyer for my farm!!!
You can do it!
It will happen and we will gladly build your unit whenever!
Outstanding RV has everything...beautiful my dream RV!!!!!
I’m glad you liked it!
Thank you
So perfect, nothing I can change , it is really what I always hope for ❤
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great build! At the introductory price you are killing the competition. Love that you have such a big power system and solar setup.
Thank you! Anything else stand out to you?
@@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.
@@dukecitywildcat 🙌🏼
@@dukecitywildcat interesting thought 🤙🏼
How would you deploy the stairs when exiting from the height? Kneel down and pull out the stairs?
Exit out your drivers or passenger door.
The quality is obvious! Not something I could ever afford, very nice!
🤙🏼🤙🏼
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?
The price is insane to me. But maybe not someone else. Great rig tho. $224k. Ouch
I was thinking it would be at least 280
I will wait 5 years for a used one to hit the market for $50k 😅
Now THAT is something new! I like it a-lot. 😉👍The shell and the cabinetry materials are forward thinking ideas. Great job.
Thank you 🙏🏼
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 !
😆😆😆
unbelievable thought and planning went into this. Seriously considering
Thanks! What stood out to you the most?
@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
@ thank you! Everything you mentioned was a focus of ours
You built this in Nj very nice rv no ladder to clear solar love the stairs and everything else prayers 🙏
Thanks so much
telescopic ladder to move around to each panel would work much better
Great points to raise Patrick about advantages to metal cabinetry; I would not have considered that.
Absolutely
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Really appreciate you debunking the B+ myth, thank you.
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 🇨🇦
We won’t produce propane RVs. The aluminum isn’t as janky as a file cabinet but I understand your concerns. Thanks for enjoying the video!
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.
Basically giving this away. Keep going I have it in my sights, real nice.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
How much?
@@source5729
Retail Price: $224,500
Introductory Preorder Price: $199,500
Looks great! Would love to see a rear wheel well liner to protect that wiring from road debris, salt, snow etc.
I’m glad you liked it! That’s a great idea!
Some stuff is moving and there will be a liner. Good catch though! Glad you enjoyed it
Tremendously well engineered product. Very impressive! Think you'll ever get the itch to design/build one on the 170" base 3500?
Appreciate the kind words!
Yes and I’ve already drawn most of the layout with twin beds in the rear…waiting to build our own or make it for someone.
Sweet,awesome,beautiful!!!❤❤😊😊love the cedar ceiling and the bathroom. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
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.
They have the e sprinter. Would be cool to have an e cab chassis
Oh man, what a cool layout!
Thank you!
I really believe composite is the way to go now with campers! awesome camper. Would love to see this on a ford transit awd
We do too!
The Mercedes is much more durable and reliable, with a 5 cylinder diesel engine. They go 800,000 km easily.
@ yeah but they also cost an arm and a leg for maintenance. And I know not everywhere you go can work on a Mercedes, but a ford transit? Probably
@@chancer194 yup. Prolly save $30 on the build,, & $3k a year on maintenance, and still meet, or exceed needs of someone doing 49 of the states, full time, for 15+ years. -says the guy with two thumbs
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! 🤙🏼
I know it’s early in production cycle, but do you have any headed to dealers on the west coast.. specifically SoCal? I’d love to see it in person
@@smitty_schmitz Right now we are direct to consumer so nothing dealer wise
@ copy that!
@@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.
absolutely Beautiful!!! Well done!!
Cheers! Glad you like it.
Thank you 🤙🏼
Dream setup
🙌🏼🙌🏼
I want to tell you that I am a big fan especially of this type of van. I worked hard to achieve something amazing. Only one thing is the exterior appearance. You have to work to complete the appearance so that it matches well with the body and the paint is also important to match with nature ❤❤❤❤ great job
We just got our partial wrap done 🤙🏼
The bomb! My lottery purchase.
Love the flushed ceiling AC, in the middle.
Thank you! 🤙🏼😊
You did a Great job in designing and craftsmanship. Nothing else needed for a weekend or several weeks of adventure.
@@AndyGraham-q9t 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
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
@@nomadrvs Cool that's a solid payload
@@dlg5485 thanks. I’m stoked on it considering all the mods it has on it.
Absolutely awesome
Thank you
Thanks!
Well done Nomad!!👏🏽👏🏽🫡
Thank you! What is your favorite feature?
@ 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!!!!
@ awesome. Thank you for the feedback 🤙🏼
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.
This is just so perfect!
Appreciate the feedback! What did you like the most?
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...
It’s a great RV!
Thank for recognizing it all! 🙏🏼🙌🏼
Is perfect 😍😍😍😍
Love it
Thank you
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.
Beautiful. Like to see a comparison of a price per month compared to average (U.S.A.) rent. Could happily live in this! Love how precise and clean this are with it.
That would be interesting to see the difference. Rents are certainly very high
@@nomadrvs when I look it up it says ”The median rent in US is $2,021.” Didn’t give details, but wonder if the loan would be similar… at least the van might feel more like your own.
@@sarahbehler5437payment would be cheaper for sure
Almost exact dimensions, construction and components on my factory Toyota Tundra JDM camper. Only difference I can buy 8 of the Tundra campers for one of these. Still great to see a comeback of class C campers on this side of the planet.
$25,000 with importing is pretty sweet. Enjoy it! Sounds fun
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 👏
A third alternator? He said they have a second dedicated one for charging the system a the 5:22 mark.
@MrToyFrog ohh cool I must have missed that item 😅 thank you
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.
The best engineered mobile small home on the market.Designed for real life,not just show.
Thank you! 🤙🏼🙌🏼
Best thing I've seen. Finally something worth my money
@@joellynparks7805 thank you
It's fantastic! Truly impressed by this rig.
@@marjoriehall9984 thank you
nice rig , compact & capable ... my opinion , the cabinetry should be flat not gloss... i think he mentions options . Thanks ! ~peace~
Appreciate it 🤙🏼
I'm not too sure I like aluminum cabinetry, thinking of all the clancking. Notice they carpet the port side upper cabinets.
@@nomadrvs- You need some pictures of this on your website! 😎
@ very much so!
@@drivinglessons5813drawers and lined and so are the uppers
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!
We spend alot of time in yellowstone in jan and Feb how will this handle those temps with tank pads? Right now our main purchase option is the Ekko. We love the layout and setup but our main concern and question is how low will the tanks and lines handle montans and wyoming temps in winter.
Only the grey tank is outside. 27 gallon with heater pad designed for 40 gallons. In theory we could add an additional one too.
@@nomadrvs thank you
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! 🙌🏼
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
Love this amazing build and love the effort to keep it USA compliant! Just wish it was in the Ford chassis.
Fabulous Windows, AC and frig!
Thank you!
I WANT ONE!! (Not in the budget at this point in my life, but maybe someday...)
Go for it
🙌🏼🙌🏼
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.
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.
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 😎
Absolutely stunning!! Shame someone forgot to cut the ends off the cable ties in the wheel arch 😂
Yea tell me about it. Cut them right when it got back to the shop 😂🤦🏻♂️
@@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 😂😂
@@dezderrington4285exactly. Or the wood piece so,eons used to hold the bench top open while the poly dried and it was left inside. 🤦🏻♂️
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
I like the alum. cabinets. Steel fronts might be nice for magnets
🤙🏼
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
Top notch! Well done 👍
Thank you 🤙🏼
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.
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
Beautiful......makes me want to take the leap!
Thank you and appreciate the kind words.
I hear ya!
I like this one by far ❤
Thanks!
Digging the layout and materials.
Me too
Appreciate the feedback
is there an electrical outlet in that large outdoor storage area? Does the,entry door window have a screen?
We are adding one back there to be standard. Entry door will more than likely get a roll down screen once we are happy with one.
That thing is sick!
Thank you. Best feature?
@ the size, simplicity, and quality of
I like how the back angles up!
Thanks!
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.
@harp4hand the CCC is now on their website = 2085#!!!
Are the batteries insulated in that metal box? Seems like that enclosure will be exposed to a lot of wind which would get very cold in sub zero conditions.. Which might use a lot of power to heat if that box isn't insulated
Insulated and heated….however production models the batteries I’ll be inside and the box is no longer
@@nomadrvs Nice, good to know! Looks great!
@@Kee_Didntover engineered the box only to realize after everything was laid out they do actually fit inside. But that’s why you build the demo and go from there for the production models
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.
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
Thanks for the feed back. 🤙🏼 side note. Bikes fit easily.
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.
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 🤙🏼
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
I noticed no out door wet bay like normal RVs. I guess what from what I seen everything is spread out like out door shower, 30amp , water fill and dump. All in different places. Did I see a tv in the rear or miss that. Great set up though . I need to come by and review in person.
Electric on RVs is always in a different place than the water on the exterior of RVs. Wet bay depends. I’ve had class A’s with water and sewer in the same bay and travel trailers and class c’s spread out to their locations like this one.
