I love how you let the workers explain by giving them a spotlight.... thx. Artists indeed !!!
.
Company seems genuinely social
Perfect. This is what happens when you allow people to bring their best selves to the workplace.
Artists and Craftspeople - always Researching the best technology & materials while driving innovation with Vision. This is what Excellence and Leadership looks like!
@A S .....look at the European rv market they have the best class b rv......$328k no thanks
As usual, another amazing van. To the people that are astounded at the price, I don't believe they realize the incredible amount of R&D you folks put into these creations, nor the quality of the components that you use, nor the quality of the craftsmanship. Yes, they are out of the price range of the average joe, but I am sure they are worth the price. The green would not be my choice, but the quality still shines through. My hats off to all the craftspeople in your shop.
Thank you for the thoughtful words Jay.
I admire Mr Mike’s leadership style. He does not take the credit for the designs, expertise and craftmanship. He puts the spotlight on his team that deserve the credit. Humility is the best quality of a leader.
Excellent video! Very informative and well shot. Enjoyed seeing all the guys explaining their work.
Kind words from the Build-Montage-Master. Thanks Humble Road!
You aren’t supposed to be on line... Get back to work! Is your van ready for Prime time? Lol
ARV, has once again, clearly demonstrated their innovative drive to benefit their customers. Congratulations to to Mike and the team for their dedication to excellence and quality B class RV.
Thank you for the kind words.
I am about 4 hours away and hope to visit your shop in the not to distant future. I've watched thousands of builds and have been most impressed by yours. I laughed at a previous comment about your other vans appealing more to the over 60 crowd. I'm a member of that crowd and have to say that Baja is my favorite build so far. It's fun and get classy.
I've always wondered why you didn't see stainless steel more in campers. No seams, easy to clean, it just seemed to make sense
I think SS scratches easily. I can’t speak to the quality of SS that ARV is using but we have a custom commercial-grade integrated SS sink and countertop in our home kitchen and it quickly developed hairline swirling scratches through normal use. I don’t mind it as, to me, such swirls and scratches are like a patina that has its own beauty. But some people may not like this, especially in a $300k van where the kitchen proportionally takes up much more space, and also more prominent, than in a house kitchen.
Sam Sung and not to mention it looks soooo industrial, SS counter tops was one thing I didn’t like in this gorgeous build. SS reminds me of a Lab. 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
No need to apologize for attention to detail. Those subtle changes make the look come together. Great eye Mike. I wish they talked about the upper storage spaces but great video and alternative look.
My sis & I 💚💚💚💚 the color; not to mention the vibe!
Since we are a couple of years down the road from it’s original posting, sure hope whoever has it now, is having a blast!
Mike what a terrific video you all have assembled an amazing team of craftsmen and women.
Better yet is the innovation in this particular van, I absolutely love the stainless steel, the simplicity
is very appealing!
Why are you apologizing for innovation and attention to detail?!? Stop it! With love and admiration. Magnificent job on Baja!
Tim and Kim
What a treat to get such an in-depth look at ARV's design process. I never cease to be amazed by your high level of quality and unrelenting attention to detail. There aren't many companies anymore, of any type, that build in this way, with true artisans. I hope I can afford an ARV one of these days. Keep up the great work!
Hmm... Are you certain you guys understand the concept of "not so fancy?"
they used green, so i think they do
How close to tears was Dude when talking about the paint on the speaker covers!
These are more like collector items for people who really want an rv that looks and feels very maritime in design and conceptual underpinnings. The attention to functionality and reliability shows throughout. One day, I'd love to own one of these creative works. In the meantime, I'll keep enjoying these vids.
I love all the new innovations you guys come up with and your craftsmanship is outstanding. I really like the stainless steel integrated sink/countertop. Great job!
Thank you very much!
Love your products! Thanks so much for always being a step ahead and listening to buyer suggestions.
Man. I am amazed at the detailing they put into these builds. Love it.
I LOVE your attention to details! 👌🏽
I could go on and on about how lively and modern the RV looks or about the well thought out design. But, really I love the people who you employ. At the time when most of the stuff we buy is manufactured in 3rd world countries, it is really great to see real craftmanship. People who are proud of their work and have passion in the work they do and the products they make. Kudos to the team.
The van build is beautiful and exquisite, but that green color....whoa...that is hard to tolerate on such a massive scale!
The attention to detail and the artistry is unmatched in the automotive industry/ Just WOW!! loving that green and the speakers paint job.. Waaaaaaat!!!!! Thanks for sharing..and on another note..Mike and Marsha..the respect you give your employees is fantastic..Kudos
This is really fab,love the colour too ,no fancy graphics either and just about everything that one needs to get out and have a fab time .I also liked seeing how it was put together and the dedication that the crew had going about their work,great stuff xx
Really like all the new thoughts and ideas that the Advanced team did with the Baja creation. And I really like the green.
It's so beautiful and the workmanship, as always is outstanding! Great video!
You guys are absolutely incredible. The thought and effort that goes into these is mind blowing. The attention to detail is really impressive. What I love about you guys is your obvious interest in making something reliable and usable. You stay in touch with your customers, and your (annual?) fest where people bring their ARVs for the show is proof of that. Keep up the excellent work, and thank you so much for brining us these videos.
The passion you guys have for your work is inspiring. Love this channel
Not sure if that folding part of the sliding table will last long. Looks like it already has some angle causing some heavy glasses or plates to fall off.
Good eye - we share your attention to detail. Mike and Marcia comfortably used the table during their trip, but when they returned we needed to make some changes. We've since added an additional slide-out support made of aluminum for more strength.
You guys are the GOLD standard. See ya soon!
Gorgeous, as always, especially if you like green. The speaker colouring is inspired. Fantastic lighting.
Love the humour in colour coordinating your outfits with the van.
I note at 9 mins 30 secs that you don't really do "basic"! But on that subject, has anyone ever requested building in a hammock stand? Imagine the space saving vs. a bed.
don't see anything '60's' about it. In fact stunning 2020's would be an upbeat positive assessment. Bravo!
You all are awesome! I love the quality and attention to detail you put into your vans.
I think it looks Amazing! Very modern and functional, go Britney!!!
Thanks for stopping by, Enrique 👍
I want one! Love this video. Great company.
+1. .. Oh Man,,, the ARV crews high-quality builds are ever-present. .. A stealth finished coach is the preferred way to travel,, yeah baby ... come and go like the wind in Baja. .. Make ours in Porsche Stone Grey metallic (LY7U) with Light Grey/Beige leather, everywhere. .. The one-piece stainless sink/counter is a nice touch. .. Very Germanic in practice. .. An exciting project for Ms. Brittany & company; Excellence practiced. .. P.S., the speaker grill detail makes my day; Nice job.
Thanks for tuning in Michael. I told Rick you enjoyed his speaker grill work - he appreciates the compliment!
Rich@@AdvancedRV .. The speaker grills outcome (understated aesthetic integration) is often sought and rarely delivered. .. Understated Rules! .. Nice work. .. The Baja project is/was an eye-opening color pallet change up. .. Advance RV is an impressive organization of both artistry & excellence. .. All oars in the water ........
Obviously - this is a beautiful van - I look to your van for well thought out design ideas, so I'll just comment on the parts I felt did not live up.
That folding table seems to need more support - even when they demo'd it, you could see how much the outer most leaf sagged with out even putting any thing on it.
And last - what is the obsession (across the board - not just ARV) with colour changing LED lights? Watching the lights change to purple and orange in a lime green interior makes my teeth ache!
Again - beautiful design - I love the brighter colour!
Thanks for letting us take a ride!
You guys are true professionals, the incredible hardworking team and the level of ingenuity is really impressive. I'm really impressived by the modular table. Godbless you guys and your business.
That is a REALLY great motorhome. Love it!
Loving the colour
♥️... I love color, and this one really excites me . 😊
Thanks Gwen 🌱
Simply amazing! The only things I would change are that I would add solar and take the sink out of the bathroom. I love the stealth quality of the Sprinter vans.
Quality and innovation - you cant go wrong! I wish I could afford one!
Thanks for the comment, William!
You have some real talent working for you ! Your guys are killing it ... wow very cool stuff ! Great idea to sell parts you can make ...like that over cab shelf ! Continue success in all you do !
Scott, thank for the kind words about our team.
very bright workers. Amazing designs guys!
beautiful American craftmanship!
JUST Awesome!!!!!!!
After I saw VEDA on the 144, a possible space-combining idea occurred to me: a rear dinette for four people with a power pull-down bed (69 x 60). Now, this would necessarily sacrifice upper cabinet space, so that would admittedly be a challenge, and I don't know whether it would interfere with battery pack location on the 144. The rear cross bed in VEDA appealed to me because it did not require folding-unfolding a sofa and setting up/tearing down bedding. You could just take a nap anytime you wanted without fuss. But that bed setup on the 144 meant the only place to sit with a laptop is in one of the rotated cab seats. There are times when one might want to curtain off the cab for privacy (without covering the cab windows and betraying stealth), but that would leave nowhere to sit with a laptop. So the rear dinette with pull-down bed idea occurred to me. Just a thought.
I am European, look to this new trendy costum RV and I can tell this company rocks in innovation and assembling, the German Market to RV builder's is really big but no company work with this level of costum detail.
Yea, does it glow in the dark? Love the stainless steel.
I don’t know that i’d choose the fluro green. I happily moved on from the 80’s 😜 But the detail, colour scheme and coordination in that van is absolutely fabulous. What a great build!
I’m really impressed with everyone’s enthusiasm and creativity. It’s cool to see the collaborative effort. The use of stainless steel is perfect for the galley. I might be contacting you soon to talk about building one for us.
needs a swing arm on the table to get it further out, and the table top isn't level - maybe a bump stop in the hinge
Thanks for the feedback. Since this video, we've added an additional slide-out support made of aluminum for more strength.
Absolutely love this!
Thanks Sharon!
Love this colour is great
Van living at it finest.
Beautifully done. Love how there's cabinetry above bed. Never have I seen a van like it...genius!!! What are the curtains made of and how well does it seal out heat/cold? Loved this build.
WOW, just WOW.
Would love to know if you are examining incinerator toilets. I see that they are now being used, to a limited degree, in Europe. For me they sound like the perfect answer to the toilet type debate.
Love the ideas of your design team.
Thanks James. We appreciate it.
Really, really nice build!
Im impressed
I like you branching out and trying different ideas. For me I would love to see a front lounge floor plan, ideally with the ability to sleep at least 3 or ideally 4.
me too! The R&D Mike allows his employees is prolly unmatched in this size organization. I too like an upfront lounge/sleeping area and a bulkhead with door. Humble road does a beautiful upfront area.
Beautiful
Beautiful van
Nice, but $328K? Wish it came with more colors than eye-burning green.
Holy cow. I knew I'd be shocked at the price but Geez. Basically for millionaires then.
My Hubby sent this video to me we are looking to start traveling...OMGNESS I LUV IT!!....The only problem that my hubby and I have with these..... NOT being able to adjust the drivers seat back juuust a little more. As far as the color....it's totally US ("WE ARE 12"), the only color change I would make is ALL the Black Leather to White or College Blue.....Happy Are Those That Travel!!!
Thanks for the comment Cynthia! Happy to hear that the color speaks to you. As you continue to do your research, let us know if we can answer any of your questions about the lifestyle (440-283-0405)
Lovely.
Thanks Stacy!
Awesome 🥂
Wow, just wow. Advanced RV Team - I love this build....you've already designed a van along the lines of what I'd want in a van...'cept the green is too bright for me. I'd go for a darker green. BTW, Brittany...green is my favorite color too. Yours was the first build I've seen that incorporates stainless steel, which really works for me. Hats off to your entire staff on such an excellent concept & design. My questions are: what kind of stove did you use & can the passenger seat rotate to the left 180 degrees? If I ever get the $$$$ to get a custom RV ban built.....this is the template I'd build off of.
The toilet door knob doesn't fit with the rest and the toilet sink faucet is way too big when compared with the sink itself. Hope it will help.
Gostei fico ótimo, mas cadê o fogão os acendedores, isso me deixou curioso.
Parabéns pela transformação. Felicidades para a empresa e sua equipe.
fantastic design. Nice micro and fridge but Where is the cooktop.?
I want one!
Its still fancy dudes....i dont think you understand what not fancy is. Its beautiful!!!
My fav color is light aqua blue wonder if a Baja can be done like that
Any chance to see Baja in person while you are traveling between ARV Home and 10,000 Islands area? I have a beautiful 2400 ft altitude mountain ridge lot where we are building a home just outside of Blairsville GA with access to lakeside club house. Near Appalachian Trail.
Great team !
🙌
Wow!
Very nice design and colors ' the fold out table is great but needs reinforced beefed up a bit' or coffee cup could slide off but great job in the idea and fold out design' i love the counters and the whole project is awesome '' i have been in the rv industry making the bus conversions and rv lots and shows. and' if i ever have enough money to do a custom build i would surly come to you for the build i love it' thank you for sharing.
What did the camper build cost?
Why not dip the steering wheel and A/C vents?
Awesome.
Thanks Brad!
Beautiful and a little quirky
A little quirkiness never hurt anyone...
Gorgeous, anyone have a ballpark figure as to what an outfit like this would coat? NOT including the van, we know these Mercedes sprinter vans run around 65 to 70 grand. I’m asking about the build from ARV. Thank you.
although the van is expensive, many employees help finish it! support USA business 👍
With new materials such as stainless steel for counter tops and different cabinets is there an approximation of weight savings? Putting this in the rental program will make an ARV experience unmatched visually and setting the emotional state of the renter. Interior colors are bold but the exterior remains stealthy. A little bit of fun for an inside surprise. Great job and you have to take risks to improve. I don't know who said this but I believe what follows: "If you want something you never had, you have to do something you have never done."
You always comment the best quotes Gary! Thanks again for tuning in. The stainless steel counter saves about 40-50 pounds.
Love to know how much it cost
Where u guys located? I'm interested in priceing...
Groovy...
The Color Green reflects the Analogy of a Save the Planet ECO Mini Motorhome AKA “the Lawn Grass Mini Motorhome”! Absurd $328,000 Price Tag, 1 Year later it’s Worth $150,000!
noticed the whole van has curved edges and eveb the decor design but not the fold out' should be curved as to not catch on corners ' love this van
i agree about the cost way to high. you can get a vaction home in the South of france for under 175K. lol
Personally, I dig it.
He didn’t show what was behind the mirror, is it a closet or a wet bath?
It's a wet bathroom 👍
Love the so much
Glad you enjoyed, Traci.
That green goes on the outside.maybe add some orange flowers to go with it?
Something about the color green, to me, you have to be careful with in industrial and interior design. Too light or bright a shade, and too much of it, will get old and annoying pretty fast. But, the darker shades of green seem to have a more calming and relaxing affect, for me.
Fantastic !!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 I have to go check my lottery tickets now....if I'm a winner I'll see you soon😉 Can do any color imaginable?
