This van life dreamer has learned a lot. I hope to one day own a converted van (made with my own design) and either live in it full/part time and/or just travel in it. Thank you for sharing all kinds of Van builds from the professionals to the DIY'ers.
I know absolutely nothing about the modeling of vans or anything (definitely want to do it!) but watch Mercedes start doing those lights on all their vehicles now bc it’s AMAZING! 😍
OMG the complaints you get. I hope you ignore them. All of your tours are great, and you’re absolutely right. We learn something from every single rig. I had a great idea based on the collapsible overhead cabinets you showed in your last video.
Thank you. But if I didn’t get hate or complaints I’d worry. No one is perfect so I don’t expect to be. I’m used to people and I know most are projecting own insecurities. Sometimes I won’t read comments for days but I also like to read the positive ones or the ones that ask good questions
Thank you! So many ideas because of your videos. Needs vs wants is what you’ve made obvious for me. I have a better understanding of limited space with comfort. I don’t need everything. I only need my build to be an expression of me instead of everything cool and wonderful. I’ve cut my budget my 40%.
This is a totally awesome van, they do an amazing job with their vans and this is a great layout for families. I would loved to know how hefty the deposit is. Totally beautiful inside and outside. Great job on the walk through.
Great! We came up with a similar layout for our 170 also needing to seat 4 and sleep 4. But since I'm 6'3 we will have the lower bed in the length direction of the van. This gives a little less room between bed area and seeting area. And we probably won't use the shower that much, an outside shower is enough.
Beautiful build! For first time and normal average buyers like us we're happy with our 20AT Thor Tellaro w/lithium. Also sits 4 and sleeps 4 with the skybunk. 11,000W /800ah, 3000w inverter can run alternator at idle. We can run AC, microwave, heaters, TV etc no problems. We got ours for low $100K range. For next rig we definitely will consider custom build, ohh but all electric..
Love this build drive 4 sleep 4 is what we would personally need. I have actually thought of some sort of double Murphy bed designs trying to figure how to maximize space to fit kid space.
I saw one design where there are two single bunk beds and they both can fold up and out of way.... Similar to a murphy. But also can leave bottom bed out and fold the top bunk DOWNWARDS to make like a day bed/couch type of sitting. I am also fond of the two benches with lowered table type beds too! Personal space no matter how small can make it break it for sure...... Cheers! I thought it was very clever! The guy does have a you tube! Cheers!
Holy hell…you guys are seriously, seriously talented! I truly would love one of these for some easy car camping-and to live in if I ever lost my house, lol. Congratulations on your builds!
Wanting to do this layout DYI in a year or two when I need to get a new vehicle…no shower and I’ll go much more simple/straight forward in terms of complexity with electronics and water systems. With that in mind, if I’m only driving 8 miles a day for work, would it be a huge deal to use this as a daily driver too? I can’t afford this as a fun vehicle. It would need to function daily too.
My dream is to get one of these that is a Boondock model with solar power generator an engine alternator for a 2500 a month I have a lot of money saved up for it. But I’m having trouble with the quality, and the distributors around me I don’t trust I’ve been to them before and they’re nasty. This is the first one I’ve seen for 80,000 all of the Thor scope/rizes I’ve seen our 120. This right here is exactly what I want and if I could get it from a local trusted dealer and buy it today!
Mercedes Sprinter is one of the most common vans in the Netherlands, and parts are easily purchased. Other brands are stepping up last years, with better wholesale prices on chassis and parts, and less repairs. That last point kept in mind: their suspentions were the reason that the MercedesVan was -next to Chevrolet- primarly used as Ambulances.
The tour was awesome, the van is even more impressive. But that Volta system being such a closed garden, totally unfriendly to right to repair is a total dealbreaker for me.
Beautiful van, thank you for the interview. But all I hear is the interviewer screaming in the microphone when I would prefer to actually listen to the gentleman being interviewed.
Hey, I'm a huge fan of your videos as they are so very informative and now even I am considering getting a camper van. According to you which are the best shows or exhibition to attend for seeing the best of camper vans?
Adventure van expo has high end builders. Time home shows/festivals have a good mix of DIY and pros and all sorts of vans and tiny homes. Open roads fest is lots of info for outdoorsy type stuff.
Why there are so many exposed metal parts of this van inside? Is it insulated at all? I always thought that one of the crucial things to do is to properly insulate it. This will not only help keeping the van warm in cold weather but also keep cool in warm weather.
I really appreciate the hard work y'all put into these vans... But...uhh Im 6' tall. ...i dont like having to bend over while moving around.... So maybe a box truck that has a 7' tall interior???
@@JarrodTocci Thanks for the reply! I was thinking same, although lagun sounds good because you can swivel it around it may not be as sturdy. Any link for this new telescoping pedestal table style pls. Ty
With pro builders I don’t because so much can change and I also respect the owner. With DIYers I ask if I can share price or cost and some say yes and some say no so again it’s a respect thing
My DIY sprinter build was possible only because of how much knowledge I got from Dustin. Great shop, amazing builds
All these technological innovations make me feel really old. This is not the van my sister and I used to run away in the 70s 😂. Very cool 🥰

This DIY’er has learned s TON from OVP and your vids!
Jarrod I'm extremly appreciative of the fact that you guys provide us this much content to learn from. Keep crushing it dude!
Just beyond perfect engineering. It’s amazing how van builds have advance with new upstart companies paving the way.
Right!!! Pretty awesome for sure!
Cheers!
I know absolutely nothing about the modeling of vans or anything (definitely want to do it!) but watch Mercedes start doing those lights on all their vehicles now bc it’s AMAZING! 😍
Finally locating a Volta system van that has customizations. Awesome.
OMG the complaints you get. I hope you ignore them. All of your tours are great, and you’re absolutely right. We learn something from every single rig. I had a great idea based on the collapsible overhead cabinets you showed in your last video.

Wow! Great tour of an amazing van. Dustin and OVP have really got their designs dialed in.
Probably the single best build I've seen. Congratulations!

Awesome build. Very well done it's great to see family options. Very cool bumper

I Love it. Absolutely fantastic van great job. Thanks for sharing.
Great build. Thanks jarred.
Good to see Dustin again. He’s such a handsome guy
I love your tours dude, you are literally living my dream lol
A conversion like this by moving the camera around showing the relevant parts of the van would be nice,
Thanks for sharing this van it’s amazing
Holy hell…you guys are seriously, seriously talented! I truly would love one of these for some easy car camping-and to live in if I ever lost my house, lol. Congratulations on your builds!
This vans are getting crazier and crazier by the ton!
I absolutely love this layout! Definitely want to buy a van from these guys!
Beautiful color excellent set up
Finally Jarod a 4 sleeper
I’ve done others that sleep 4 😝
Woo-hoo, it's the sexy af Overland guy again! Love your builds! And I totally learn tons!
Love this !!! Don’t need the 2 beds personally but love the power and design
It’s a good idea if you have kids.
yea that sprinter van is nice! id love one
lucky family....that is BEAUTIFUL.
Thanks for the video, super helpful.
Wow, gorgeous van!
No dirty water filtration... holy hell that's cool.
Wow love the shower and space can be custom for wheelchair planning for van in future
Keep showing those professional builds
Uploading one of the BEST now!
For a minute there I thought Jarrod had snagged Mark Zuckerberg for an interview.
Beautiful electricals ,,, my dream 😍
Awesome... thanks for sharing
That was totally awesome!!!!
Great video! Thank you so much!
I've noticed fabric wrap isn't great for fulltimers with pets unless it's Kevlar fabric.
That is amazing van. Thank you for showing us. After rvlife, we are looking forward to Vanlife and than boatlife #kapken
Great looking van, I’m interested in their battery system… I started following them.
Great review.Thak you.
Nice ! Can i see the tire rack up close ? Just beautiful work thank you ...👊😎
If I win the lottery or they start paying teachers alot more I'm definitely getting one of these xD awesome video again!
So Freaking Awesome!!
NICE!!!!! build. Wow.
I wouldn't buy a system I couldn't add things to myself, but then again I would want to build my own
Really very awesome
Beautiful ❤️❤️
I like the pro builders
The seat quality and patterns should match
Wow....impressive.
I need to get my credit up and start saving I want one!!!!

Would that massive 2nd alternator have much impact on the fuel economy of the van? That is an awesome build!!!
It shouldn’t. All an alternator is generate power so depending how it’s made is how much power it produces
Didn’t see a small refrigerator in there, is there one in there?
What was the brand and model of the side awning... and the brand of the seats please? I couldn't make it out from the video and it's not listed
4 people no,2 people definitely. Use the lower bed area for storage.
Who doesn't love forts.
Yes! I want to learn from the builders that know what they're doing!
The ceiling strip light, during day time and light is off does that strip light look ugly and affects the nice look of the ceiling?
Sorry if I missed this; Where did you source the shower/toilet enclosure and pan? TIA
Beautiful, but way above my price range!!
Nice
Beautiful van, thank you for the interview. But all I hear is the interviewer screaming in the microphone when I would prefer to actually listen to the gentleman being interviewed.
totally bummed that a West Coast custom van builder is standardizing. That said, I get the need to pump out more product to keep the doors open.

Could you put some links in of some of the gear he spoke about that supplied him with some of the many cool things he used!
Where is it that the stainless steel shower is being purchased from or is that custom?
Very nice. Seat 4 sleep 4 tho
I have a question, with a 20 gallon water tank, how they are going to shower if the family have four members?
Good
I wonder who will be first to stand up from back seats and concuss themselves on that cabinet corner?
These guys could put a power option on the beds I know they can
do they make vans with an extended roof? im 6'6 am i just out of luck when it comes to van/tiny home life?
"not a small guy maybe 5'10"...." Everybody over 6' watching this is secretly rolling their eyes
Homeboy looks like Chris Coy
I think the bottom bunk is like a coffin
This Dude should stop talking and let this guy show the van👍
I really appreciate the hard work y'all put into these vans...
But...uhh
Im 6' tall. ...i dont like having to bend over while moving around....
So maybe a box truck that has a 7' tall interior???
Ford transits have a high enough roof and I’ve seen a lot of 6 foot people in sprinters and promasters too
@@JarrodTocci
Alrighty then
Nice design, how much is it?
Stainless steel walls in th shower? How cold will the walls be in winter? Shivering at the thought.
With that heater and insulation they won’t be cold at all
The only thing that I like about the professional is their showers
how has the volta system holding up?
Great video. Great company. Could you provide any additional info on the Oregon/Washington RV loan (workaround) that he mentioned?
How much would one of these cost
what are the light strips on the roof?
Let the guy talk
very nice ...need more windows
What are the pros of pedestal table like on this video instead of the Lagun swivel style table pls. Pros n cons, ty!
Weight. Lagun is great but can’t handle as much weight. This new style of telescoping pedestal allows you to remove it
@@JarrodTocci Thanks for the reply! I was thinking same, although lagun sounds good because you can swivel it around it may not be as sturdy. Any link for this new telescoping pedestal table style pls. Ty
It would be really nice if we can have the price tag for each final product for references.
With pro builders I don’t because so much can change and I also respect the owner. With DIYers I ask if I can share price or cost and some say yes and some say no so again it’s a respect thing
How much something like this cost?
The alternator is 7000 watts, at 48v direct output....right?
Then the alternator is only 145 amps?
