The cook top limitation is ingenious along with the perfect explanation of why to omit it. I like that, it’s different.

I think it’s a beautiful build love the white oak ceiling and the use throughout the van the green is a nice accent color like how you used it on rear doors I thought that was a nice touch. Every inch of that van is creative and beautiful great job

Very Nice build. I’m anxiously awaiting to see if you will ever have a van build without a shower. It will be intersecting to see what creative ideas you would have with the additional space freed up from eliminating the shower.

O banheiro deveria ter sido colocado na entrada, para dar mais sensação de espaço

I have a black tank in my bvan and my wife and i have used it so many times. Sometimes I go in to the bathroom at the rest area to save tank space (its 10 gallons) but my wife always uses the toilet in the van for poopoo.

Nice build, but I would rather see more rounded edges everywhere (cabinets, toilette, overhead cabinets…). Too many pointy ends for a clumsy like myself.

😍 masya Allah.. I wish I could have it one..☺️

Hi I have been watching your videos. The Sprinter van as we see it, what is the est. cost for one like this. Thank you. I see you are almost booked for 2024👍

I love everything about it except the toilet. How much is this van?

Great looking van. How do you prevent shower water from flowing across the horizontal potty surface in to the blue separette basin?

@SaraandAlexJames

7 ай бұрын

We recommend clients take the shower head off the holder and do a hand held shower so you minimize splashing. Also it’s key to wipe the shower down when you’re done 😊

How much does a build like this go for?

Do your separating toilets come with a fan?

That is a very nice van. Two thumbs up 👍.

You are correct. These amber running lights are legal. 👍🏼

How much did this build cost? Are the owners getting a separate loan for the van itself and then another for the build cost or are you able to wrap them together? I am wondering how so many folks make it affordable because i definitely wsnt to do one

@SaraandAlexJames

Most of our clients pay for the van and build out in cash. We have had a couple recently that used RV financing for the build out. Most of our builds are in the $100-200k range - obviously a large range but it really depends on materials and extra features

@DirtSickle1

3 ай бұрын

@SaraandAlexJames When you say RV financing, are they wrapping the van purchase cost and build into one loan, or financing the build separately? I am trying to create a way to build a dream van but don't exactly have the cash on hand although I can afford the financing

What would something like this cost all in?

Is it true that a new Sprinter outfitted like that could be around $300K USD?

@SaraandAlexJames

7 ай бұрын

Yes for a quality build. Some are VERY overpriced in our opinion for the features they include.

Similar to many vans. Clean build. Do not like toilet.

There are definitely some not great (honestly scary) builders out there. Covid made the industry boom and a lot of people started building vans for the money, without really caring about how the van functioned or looked. We’ve seen some REALLY bad ones. It’s sad how much some paid for terrible builds.

for some reason, it was hard to understand what you were saying, maybe it was your tone, which would go down and quiet, and also sometimes you would run your words together or maybe just talking fast without a breath. However, it was fun seeing the van.

Where's the garage?😊

Nice van, but couldn’t watch past half way. What’s with the subtitles, etc?

These are all Aluminess products and they do publish their weight. Also we always track GVW on our builds. This one came in a couple hundred pounds under GVW

Nice setup. Just remember that as soon as you start 'building' in a van, it looses its flexibility of being a multi-purpose vehicle. For example, most van-lifers with built up vans cannot carry any large items ... say, as a way to make money.... as there is no room. - This is why you see vans that have fold-down or removable seats in them... to keep them multi-purpose.

Yeah , I just lost it all .

It’s kind of sad to see that there are not a lot of floorplans suitable for tall people.

We have designed vans with longer beds for clients 6’2”.

I don’t know what stain/finish you put on the white oak but it looks in your video to have hidden rather than enhanced the distinct grain inherent in white oak, medullary rays. Instead of claiming it is beautiful how about showing a close up so this skeptic can decide for himself. So far I’m saying no to this finish. Sadly, 99%+ of cabinetmakers today hide the beauty of the wood with their stain/finish choices

Clicking when showing text is an annoying first in my experience

too many playing with video effects i broke my eyes (((( jumped few times expecting i can watch pure video then but it is not til the end. closing will not watch longer and i remove my like back
