Very well built van, but why does the shower look like a massive gun cabinet.
The little finishing details are great. I esp love the removable slide-out tray mounted to the L-track..so good!
Finish quality has to be the best I've ever seen.
Matt, what a great build. I love this Van. Titan Vans, Great Job! Thanks for sharing.
I really like the foldaway bench seat. Nice for friends. That's slightly different than a linear actuator. It's a gas spring, which sort of does what an actuator does, but passively, meaning no electricity involved. Convenient devices.
I love the design. Personally, I would opt out of the additional seats for a larger shower and more counter space.

Push button locks are my favorite, I don't live in a van so perhaps it may become something tedious but for me I love them. Hidden slide drawer shelves and push button locks like that are my favorite things I would have a fan with both lol
99% of Van builds have same floor plan. If it's raining or snowing you cannot open the back doors without getting bed wet. A shower with no fan- during winter. The amount of condensation in the van will become an issue.

You've nailed it! Awesome van!
Probably one of my favorite designs. I could see myself wanting something very similar to this except I would want a closet for a few things for sure.
Great van, well done guys superb finish. That crisp, clean finish is not easy to achieve, take a lot of planning. 👍

This is really awesome. Looking at you guys and Outside Van. My family currently role in a LC with a roof top tent with a trailer for outdoors stuff. We are big time skiers in the winter and campers in the summer. These vans caught my eyes only very recently. Although very cool, unique and practical my only concern is reliability. Looking for some long term users here locally to talk to
WOW! that's an awesome, awesome build.
I leave this under every video I watched, it helps the algorithm.
I love the warm look of the van 🙌 when carrying additional ppl where do they sleep?
Never seen a powder coated shower but its gorgues. The little details are fantastic like the vent slots in cabinets. Rounded corners on cabinets. And the colors go very well. A very nice rig.

One improvement option (and the only one - 'cause you nailed it!), It looks like there's room for a larger fresh water tank... vertical space.
Great design and presentation.
6:00 Watch your head ouch ! It looks just like my hazardous materials storage locker in the garage curious as to the color under the grey mines red
Does the bed have slats under it to provide ventilation? Also, can you build one with a pull-down table for extra counter space? and maybe a lagun table where the passenger seats are so there is a place to eat? Love the materials and colors.
Macho macho van! Best garage I've seen. Does the shower have a clothes bar and its own dedicated fan? Forgive me if you covered that. If the shower door was lockable with an inside release it could be a safe/safe room too.

Hi, the shower has L-track installed in it that allows you to connect all sorts of items to it, including a cloths line. No fan for the shower, it has a vent grill across the top that allows it to vent and then the main cabin fan can help to pull out moisture.
Brilliant design and build!
The tray would also be good for additional fridge units. Need electric plug ins back there.
I like the thermostat on the pads good idea for the forgetful or surprised

You’d be surprised how much you try to conserve on water when you’re doing full-time you’re not taking showers every day small things like windows are easy to put in also if you’re customizing your van
This is amazing. I want one
You should add a cutting board on the other side of a sink cover, one side is good wooden and other is plastic. so you just need to turn it around and you have a cutting board. many boats use this thing. Sorry for bad English))
Any metal will condensate and the lack of insulation over the wheel well is an issue, no extension of heating vent into the shower would be an issue if using it as a drying room i think adding the larger heater is a plaster for the lack of insulation and bare metal on display .
Very nice build and video. I had a few questions. Is 300W solar enough? Surprised not to see a folding counter extension at the door. Also, you didn’t mention electrical outlets at the bed. Curious if the manual crank for the awning is more common than an automated version for lazy people like me! Finally, I didn’t see any work area/bench/dining area for one or two people working on their laptops. Perhaps I just missed this!
It would be nice to have a fold out table under the second small passenger bench seat which would fold out when folded up with a fold out leg
Love the foldable seat!!
With a few personal adjustments I want this van.
It's gripped! Sorted! Let's off road!
Love your efficient elegant design! I assume 2 kids car seats fit comfortably and easily on the back seat? Curious about final price excluding cost of base van. It appears well insulated for 4 season use so will do well in CO. Smart to have manual awning!! This Sprinter 170 4x4 has it ALL!!

In case that you are coming from other ultra-luxury caravan camper videos. Yes they have fancy looks, have luxury stuff and they can grab so much money and they are pretty wider. If you want to touch another button you have to pay another dollar. And when you drive them probably they will say ohh baby slower pls slower ...I called them Kım Kardashian. But, Look at the Titan Vans not so much not so less, exactly the true needs genuinely at your service. Lean,rock-solid, and powerful. I call Titan Vans Linda Hamilton from Terminator 2 . They protect you and are ready to give necessity when needs to. And when you drive, Titan says: Get out my way.

What about the roof? I feel cheated! BTW, where are you located and approx how much would this cost?
Nice but I have to say I think the European builds seem to be far better built with better finishes and much better at using the space for about the same money. Check out Kabe or RP Motorhomes.
The shower looks like a gun safe from the outaide.

How the hell are you loading 600ah after they're drawn empty? How long does it take with solar? How long do they last of shore?
@TitanVans
3 жыл бұрын
The batteries are charged in three ways. Off of solar, from the alternator, and when plugged into shore power. The alternator puts out 250 A and would take just over two hours of driving to recharge. Solar is more of a trickle charger in comparison but can produce around 25 A in direct sunlight. Once plugged into shore, the batteries charge at 80 A and as long as you are using less than that at any given point in time then you can run off shore indefinitely.
This is really gorgeous. I just hate the shower it looks like a locker .
The rear doors are not conveniently insulated, there is a thermal bridge with the outside. Why wasn't it done?
@TitanVans
3 жыл бұрын
It is impossible to create a continuous thermal break in a vehicle without losing both functionality and a large amount of interior space. In addition there are many air penetrations in a vehicle that can not be sealed for a variety of reasons, as well as R0 windows. With all of that we do not find it worth the time or money to cover every metal surface. If you size the heater right it doesn't make much of a difference. We have slept in -20 F without a problem.
