What is most iMportant is how reliable is the engine and autoparts. You don’t wanna get stranded becuase the engine has reliability issues

I've only ever seen one that features a reclining seat. That's what those of us in mid-60s really need for total relaxation.

The most important thing in a camper van is the electrical layout so that you can upgrade or downgrade your power supply. A sockets USB connectors etc. then the second is the washroom everything else can be customizable, for example lounge setting versus cargo setting, Roof bed, Foldable tables portable refrigerator, portable cooking stove etc.

Waiting for a camper van designed for a single person. Less seating, more storage, larger fridge and bath. I like the movable wall feature for the shower, allowing for a larger toilet area and shower rather than a wet bath using a shared footprint.

NO. SE ENTIENDE UNA 💩

The best presentation of Class B that I have seen this year (2021). Salute.

I like a fixed bed, bathroom and shower inside, I like the slide door on the bathroom that acts to squeegee the door when opening it after a shower, induction top stove, refrigerator, TV and lots of fans.

I always want to see America, so I hope one of these days any vehicle like these will accompany me on those roads !

I feel like the RV companies are missing a huge market opportunity in class B campers. Other than the Revel, where are the GenX /Millennial camper vans? Something does not look like they pulled the cabinetry out of grandmas garage. A van with a gear garage that can hold real stuff like full size bikes, inflatable paddle boards, has an onboard air compressor, expandable battery capacity for boondocking, etc. Full size indoor showers waste so much space and they fill up the grey water in a hot minute., but I like the outdoor shower idea and an indoor flex shower for those times when it is not feasible to shower outdoors. My main layout necessity would be a large gear garage that can haul bikes and keep them inside when using the bed. Next would be an electrical setup that is sufficient to go for days without plugging in.

These are wonderful, however buyers should know their restrictions. All have small tanks, most less than 20 gallons. Which means your water use, showers, restroom use are limited to pretty much overnight camping only. Also, many are standard 2 AGM batteries and 1000 watt inverter. Meaning that you are camping wherever you can run an extension cord from, no running the heater, using the microwave, etc. And yes, I want one anyway. 🤣

This is exactly what I’m most interested in - - camper vans with bathrooms!

So tell me now, how are we supposed to get a van that I like from Germany to the USA without spending double the money to have it re-certified in the USA?

High quality video. Informative. Enjoyed this. Thanks!

Bathroom with shower, always a must have.

The most important thing to me would be a bathroom.... That would be a must-have!

Most important features include Both front seats swivel & use swivel table (ideally, converting to 2nd bed), indoor bathroom w/shower, skylight access to rooftop solar plus patio deck, freezer in fridge, hot water, bed padding, storage, awning. Ideally, galley window enables faucet access (if not full slide-out cook surface plus sink). I've seen camper vans that allow the entire galley unit (incl fridge) to swivel or roll onto outdoor shelf set up via locking castors ... brilliant!

Essential for me are a closet, drawers for clothes & those great pantry (pull outs) And not just one! Also, I absolutely must have as many windows as possible! I won’t even consider a van that closes off the back win- dows or has smaller windows! Oh no! Now that I am experiencing being colder I am interested in extra insulation and extra heating solutions! Perhaps even sectional panels to section off parts of the van to target areas to heat. And it may not be feasible but I really wonder if it’s possible to have a washer & dryer? Now that would be perfect!

I love your idea because is what I would like :) I would like to add a "hide out ramp" for loading my toys or my working equipment, the hide out ramp will be my deck area :) and a drop down bed on the back so there is plenty of space for a nice cargo/entertainment area with one of the side windows will open up with a serving shelf. More head room

I watched this video again and I think this is one of your best!!!!!!!

Watched this video again and number 1 was my favorite!!!!!! When I get rich, I am going to buy it!!!

We would like a third sleeping bed for our young adult son. Bathroom is a plus. Refrigerator a big plus for me, not so much for my husband. We have been camping & boating / sailing for vacation for years , so we have learned how to use a cooler efficienly.

The life of a geologist is one of constant work changes, a nice camper van will be essential for me. Something I really want is wifi and a place to set up a computer desktop. Comforts like an on suit bathroom and shower are a great touch as well

Another great camper video which is no surprise!!! Minds eye you are the best!!!

GRECH RV - Class B STRADA -ION is battery and you can skip these worries and care/maintenance of the generator. Its a huge peace of mind. We love ours.

For me it's the amount of space and good use of the space. Having a shower and toilet. All everything must be well thought out with good use of the space.

Now that's what I'd like for camping

Most important bath shower included. Then a large refrig with separate freezer. Solar to run and instant on hot water heater. Twin beds or separate sleeping for two. Then deep sink and 2 burner or radiant heat strive top. Microwave. Not asking too much!. Other things Max air fan. A/C and out side shower.

Nova for the price, and #1 for all that you get!!!!

What my wife and I really want is a vehicle that allows us to travel without having to find an open rest stop or use a filthy public toilet, yet has a few luxury items like a small fridge and perhaps a microwave for light duty cooking. We don't intend to camp, though if we do, we'll tow a travel trailer. Mainly just want a good long distance travel vehicle.
