The thing I like is Brad will give an honest review, and tell us the ins and outs. Love seeing options. 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸

Just over 15 years I’ve been traveling in a motorhome towing a Mini Cooper. Taking the Mini on roads it should have never been on. Last month I ordered my 8th Jeep vehicle specifically to tow behind the motorhome. This one is a Wrangler Rubicon JLU. Wranglers always make me smile ever since my first YJ. Semper fi Master Chief, keep up the great content.

It missed leg day - I died hahaha. I just sold my Jeep for a 2023 Revel last week! Weird coincidence.

Really like how you're exploring other vehicle options that could help expand the options to other who maybe looking for options other than a Jeep or trailer. Nicely done Brad.

I saw the Revel and thought it was a Talon Sei video as that’s what his first van looked like. I was quite surprised to see Brad. 😂

Each and every vehicle has its place. It’s up to us to decide what that place may be. Nice honest presentation. Knowing the capabilities of your vehicle is something that experience like yours really helps.

just watched Matt's Offroad Recovery rescuing this very type of sprinter - as he said, its the most least capable vehicle he has driven going up hill that specific trail.. But it did climb anyway.. For general overlanding, this might be the most comfortable out there. Just dont hit sketchy trails.

Nice walk around. Not made for the extreme stuff, but probably capable of moderate (3) and below rated trails. Great alternative vehicle. Thanks for the review and Travel safe on the way to PNW.

Every rig has it's trade offs. Will you be living it it full time, going into very tight technical trails, needing lots of payload etc. Theirs no perfect truck but you have to compromise to suit your main goal. Every rig is unique and adapted for the owners specific goals. Always cool to see different step ups for ideas :D

We have Sprinter vans at work. As a driver, I love them for both passenger and driver comfort. The seating position for the driver, especially, is one of the best I’ve ever experienced. That said, it’s not all sunshine and roses. Daimler keeps a tight rein on technical manuals, and getting work done on the the parts of the van that came from Mercedes can be *very* difficult. You pretty much have to take it to a Mercedes or Freightliner shop.

The ultimate 4X4 overlander I've ever seen was a COE that had GIGANTIC tires (I mean way taller than 40s). A couple from Germany had it shipped to South America from Germany and they were making a road trip from the southern most tip of South America to Alaska. It was even stocked with a wine bar!

The only problems with those massive world-traveler overland rigs are the fuel consumption and parts supply. Fuel economy is high single-digits to low double-digits and parts are commercial truck parts that may have to come from another country. They're also not subtle and can't go down narrow roads like a Jeep or a van can. Otherwise, if you're going to travel the world extensively why not do it in a rolling house?

Brad, as a Sprinter owner I appreciate your open minded review. I have a 2019 2500 170 (Long Wheel Base) 4x4 Sprinter I've built out custom for my wife and I to travel. While we spend most of our time on the pavement, we don't hesitate to head out on trails and dual tracks on BLM land to Boondock. It's certainly not a Jeep or even a true 4x4, but it'll do fine, albeit slow, until the trail starts getting rough. At 9.5 feet tall and 22.5 feet long, I'm not taking it on the kind of trails you love. We use it mostly for skiing and boondocking and it's not let us down yet. It'll also put down the miles when needed at 80+MPH all day long in comfort and quiet with a queen sized bed and a large fridge and freeze a few steps away. A great balance for us, but both my wife and I still drool at the thought of a nice Rubicon.........

Hey Brad, love your channel, and never miss any of your videos!! People often confuse contiguous US with continental us. The 13 tallest mountains in the continental United States are all in Alaska with Mt McKinley being the tallest at 20,310 ft. The tallest mountain in the contiguous United States is Mt Whitney.

I think he might be hooked! I bought a 2 YO Sprinter 3500 ten years ago, and it has been my daily driver ever since. It's the longer wheel base, same diesel 3liter, is four wheel drive although all four driven wheels are on the back. But, it gets 17mpg. I hear many of the shorter wheel based Sprinters, like you are reviewing in the video, but the two wheel drive models are getting 20-24mpg, so something to think about. I now have a 2024 Hybrid Wrangler on order, so that should become my new daily driver, and toad!

Brad, your JT and the XOverland JT were the reasons why I bought my 2020 JT and spent 3 years kitting it out. As time went on, my wife and I realized that our build was overkill for 99% of the trails we ran, as I didn't want to risk so much money going on a trail higher than a 4. While I was emotionally invested in my JT, I had the Wagoneer bug implanted in my head for many months since its revival. I finally pulled the trigger and traded in my JT (sans the mods) in for a 2023 Wagoneer with the off road package. I'm not sure how many people are comfortable taking a Wagoneer on the trails, but I hope to see more Wagoneer overlanders! Congrats on all your success!

Best walk through of this type of vehicle so far. With yall on the road using it with your gear in the vehicle. I would love one of these, maybe not as big though cause its just me. Good stuff sir.

Thanks for adding some sprinter content to your great channel. I'm anxious to see what a Jeep guy will do to improve on the Revel's offroad ability.

Different vehicles have different uses. This is better for highway cruising and those times when you want to get out but don't feel like hitting the trails. Sprinters are popular so there are off-road mods you can do but they're not cheap because of the economies of scale. Van campers all seem to love their rigs so it'll be fun to see what adventures you take this on.

This has been my dilemma for years. Jeep or van or 4x4. Been lucky enough to have owned both but can never pick one. Great work

Great review Brad. Enjoy. Funny enough, I’m watching a Matt’s off road recovery right now of one of these on a pretty sketchy trail.

I’ve got Jeeps, a ram 2500 and a sprinter RV. I love them all in different ways

Great assessment of the van's strengths and weaknesses as an offroad adventure vehicle, Brad. I've only ever owned a van for my adventures (would love a jeep but my wife prefers the style of travel a van affords, and we can get off road enough to still satisfy those cravings for the most part). My Sprinter is the longer wheelbase and I even find that to be super easy to drive in and out of the city. The shorter wheelbase model that you're using could easily be a daily driver for me, it's just that easy to maneuver. I think people would be surprised how far some drivers can take these vans. Obviously they'll never touch what true overlanding vehicles can do, but there's a TON of beautiful and secluded spots that don't require the most capable overlander to access. The biggest thing we love about our vans is that things like our kitchen, bathroom, and beds are all accessible from the cab. My wife often uses the kitchen and bathroom while stuck in traffic. And I can't count how many times we've been able to stop for a meal or a nap in cold/rainy conditions and stay warm and dry while doing so.

Good morning Master Chief, I see how your tenure in the Navy has allowed you to have an outstanding hobby. By now we see you as a You Tube influencer. In your heart you are a “Jeep” man to the core. Because of your type of content, I have been influenced to purchase products you have endorsed. However I watch between the lines. Your review of the Sprinter conversion, is novel at best. I think for the type of off roading you do, this rig has not won you over. It has some appeal but it doesn’t satisfy the expectations you may have had for it. I will say this hobby is definitely evolving. I too have been a camping/RVer for years. I also have embraced the off roading itch, the spouse and I have a 2018 JL, I have a modified 2022 Wildtrak. I have taken both off road and both do well. However none of them are perfect. If you push your vehicle to the extreme there are consequences, that can be costly. I believe because of folks like you and others, Stallantis is making upgrades based upon experiential feedback from owners. Your enthusiasm for the 2024 models is exciting. I’m tempted to trade my Bronco for a ’24 Gladiator, however the Bronco’s gas milege is a deterrent to not trade. When I purchased my Bronco the hard tops were unavailable due to the ’21 recall. Ford still hasn’t released upgrades for us soft toppers. I use my Bronco for my work, I’m only partially retired. So yes it is my every day driver. I envy you and your spouse in your travels and the travel log. I do realize you delve in the food side a great deal. My waist line is example of my involvement. I guess you realize I too am a vet with many years service, but did’t finish my intended service goal. I left service to persue my Masters degree with hope of returning but life happened. So I focused on raising my kids to be successful. No regrets I use my service training in my civilian work and try my best to train others because my skills are lost unless I share. I commend you Master Chief for your videos, they are entertaining and informative. Three of the five males in my family were Navy, I was the odd ball, Air Force 14 yrs and five career fields. Yes lots of useable skills. Thanks.

My wife and I purchased a used 2020 Revel 4x4 in March of 2022 with only 11,000 miles on the unit, now has 43,886 miles on the unit..the diesel fuel tank ( 40 ) gallons was the first modification I made, driving at 60 mph will give you 17 to 19 miles per gallon…with the stock Revel tire and using the cruise control, I did change the front tires to a high mileage street tread and this made a big improvement in handling and tire noise…the KO2 is not a quiet tire. We enjoy the easy traveling that a on road / off road van brings to overlanding.

Great van very good layout thanks 😎🍷🚍⚓️🇬🇧👍

Van looks like such comfort, like it.

I LOVE the Revel. I would love it for a ski vacation transport / place to live. The problem is the cost. If I remember correctly the entry price is something like $220,000.00. Which for that price I can buy a great snow vehicle and A LOT of hotels. It that’s really my only grip. But I guess that’s also why I stay at ABNB’s and not the Ritz.

The perfect Overlanding Garage in my opinion : Jeep Wrangler 392 , Ford F150 Raptor R , a Mercedes Sprinter similar to this one especially for someone who lives next to both mountains and ocean and desert like you guys 🙂

RV that can tow your off-roader is the best I think

Hi Brad. Is this your new adventure vehicle. The sprinter van is definately not a bad choice. Fellow youtuber Living the Van Life has a customized sprinter van he took up to prudoe Bay Alaska in the middle of winter. His Van is the coolest build i have ever seen. If this is your newest adventure vehicle. Congratulations!

My wife and I rented a 2WD Ford Transit van. It was a decent trip through Northern California from Arizona. We did like it, but we have two larger dogs and they didn’t like not being able to see out any windows. Also, it would be nice to have a pull out galley kitchen l, like overland trailers, to cook outside. We ate at restaurants by choice, but the van is big to just pull into parking spaces in cramped coastal cities. We wish the van was equipped better to do inside and outside cooking. Plus we’d rather not having an indoor restroom and have more interior space. Our rental van did not have swivel captain’s seats which would have been nice! Also, I think the Transit vans are just made with AWD and not 4WD. We did like just parking and within minutes we were camp ready. We normally do ground tent camping and that certainly does take us a bit of time set up our campsite. Where did you rent your Sprinter van from?

The best advice I got is if you buy one of these Sprinters for it to sit in your yard and act as an RV two or three times a year, it isnt all that great. On the other hand, if you buy a simple one with a bed and a fridge, and use it daily as a soccer practice, road trip, kids’ tournaments, campsite, daily driver, it is an incredibly useable vehicle. My issue is the lack of towing capacity compared to a 1 ton E350 or Chevy Express. But I am very interested in something like this.

That is a cool set up! We think about renting or buying something similar so we can go on a cross country road trip with the pups. I ordered one of the Forerunner collapsible chairs from your site and love it! My husband didn't want one until he saw how easily its sets up and how small it collapses! I bought one for him as well. He is off-roading a Porsche Cayenne.

The other options, trailer, truck, and tent are used when friends and family come with. The bottom line is that the van can get to most places people want to go.

As a van owner, who drools over your cool rigs, I’ll be interested in your trip recap. I’d like to hear the pros and cons from both you and Regina after your trip since I’m in the process if finding alternatives for my 2019 Sprinter 170 4x4. Maybe a Jeep with Ursa Minor or Gladiator with slide in bed camper.

Something about beautifully bent metal on the back of a van just gets our blood pumping! ;)

The problem I continually have during about 14 months of owning a 2021 Sprinter is driving on gravel roads with an incline. For some reason, the van just quits delivering torque to the wheels even though it has enough to get up the hill. It'll just roll to a stop and sit there while you have the accelerator all the way down with the engine screaming. So you pull your foot off the accelerator, roll backwards a bit and go forward again. Obviously, if there's enough torque to get going from a backwards roll there's plenty to *keep* going if you're already going forward. I can't understand why it does this. I've discussed this issue with several other people who also have the problem but I haven't seen any of the KZread reviews address this issue. I also haven't seen any climb a gravel road with a decent amount of incline. In fact, very few of the Sprinter KZread videos actually drive where 4x4 is required, which is rather disappointing when reviewing a 4x4...

i have a JK on tons/40s w/ a GFC RTT for solo rock crawling runs, but i LOVE my Revel! those RTTs and overlanding trailers don't have a full bathroom! Not to mention, i can flat tow my JK behind the Revel. MUCH more enjoyable for the highway (already have made 4 trips to Moab from Santa Cruz).

Here in Central Oregon a huge number of rigs in town are sprinter vans. OK for moderate 4WD but not for real serious off road travel. It takes deep pockets to purchase one.

I would love to see a video on the different styles of transportation as it relates to the % of roads/trails.

A stock smaller truck. A modified big truck. Etc, etc. What about pulling a trailer? Where will a cheap travel trailer go? Where could you take a decent off-road 21-24' trailer......like Imperial Outdoors X145. This is, of course, coming from someone who has little knowledge. In fact, I'm seeking it.

Get to know how the sprinter handles, it's a good platform, the only thing i didn't like about the 2wd ones I've driven was the turbo cuts in and jsut spins the wheels on any slippy surface. I hope yours is better. Stick 32" tyres on it and a maybe a 2" lift to get the body up, but other that that, don't do much to it. Clear some of the "low fruit" out of the way, and you'll have a great adventure vehicle. Personally I want a 1995-7 Ford Cargo 4x4 7.5t truck, 4m box on the back, it's as big as you'd want to go but awesome on the trails, other than the height, it'll go a lot of places the Jeep will!

I wouldn’t really call it a 4x4, in the sprinter manual it says selectable AWD. It does have a low range but the gearing is like traditional low range. I definitely had trouble on steep trails, really need to use some momentum over obstacles. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great for what it is but has limitations. The largest of which was likely the driver but also the height.

Edit, Mt. Whitney is visible. At 1:36. It is just to the right and above the right switchback on the road. If you zoom in you can see the spires the the left of Whitney. Also, a more appropriate term is the highest peak in the contiguous 48 states as Alaska is still part of the North American continent. You should hike it one day. The standard route is ling but easy.
