The Perfect Luxury Van for a Family | AWD SPRINTER VAN
We're excited to share our latest project, a 2023 AWD 3500 Sprinter Van for our clients in New York! This is our Family Van 2.0 Layout with one modifiction - a platform bed in the rear. This family wanted to have garage storage under the bed for their larger items like a stroller, pack and play, etc so this was the perfect modification on our layout.
We also added a floor to ceiling cabinet in the rear of the bathroom that gives more storage as well as a 55 liter Isotherm drawer freezer. Being able to have a fridge and a freezer when you have kids is a game changer in a van.
They also opted for the swivel base on the rear passenger seat, which ended up being perfect for their family. When ...

FAMILY VAN TOUR | master van builders 16th luxury van build with full bathroom
Hi there. What is a ball park cost to build out this van? I really like this one and we are considering hiring you. Also where is the link for tbt tv swivel bracket please.
Thanks!
Why not have slimmer cabinets under the movable bed? The bed does not go down that far.
If you hit your head every time on a 5’7” opening, I’d hate to see you get in and out of a car, lol.
Have you done a video on a van for ful time living by a single guy that will tow a trailer with a motorbike and tools in it? Won't need an indoor shower as can shower at work but an outside shower would be good....
At 5'10" I'd probably still choose the transit as it has to be cheaper to service than the Merc?
Yes However I would prefer a higher ceiling....of the transit
Mezzi solo per il mercato americano, perché in Europa sono troppo pesanti da patente C ,peccato
Does it recline???? 🤦🤦♀🤦♂
Love this!
If you put a fixed shower into a 144" you have wasted an enormous amount of space - if you require a bathroom, you really should not be in a camper van.
I’d love to see a video about the differences between different vans, lengths, heights, what fits in a garage, etc. How do you get windows, do they come that way… so many questions!
Watch “Moser Makes”
@@G45and47 thanks!
I love the outtakes !😂❤
Thanks for the info. What colour is that van? Is it a factory colour?
Silver Gray
Hi! How many feet long is the 170 versus the 170 extended? Just wanting to compare its length to a Class C
Great Designs..
FOR CARGO VANS ?
Any Tips For Cargo vans
I would love a video on layouts for buskers or performing artists.
That flooring is beautiful.
How do you clean the pee tank?
geat job , mates ...
What's the total price on this van
LOVE this one!! love love!!
I like the gear van layout
Is it all wheel drive.?
“Now we’re adulting” he he he (nervous laughter). Awesome builds!
The bench swivel is genius!
This is such a great job... im so greatful for your van build guide i bought and modeled my build from one of the layouts offered in your book
Glad to help!
well if you got a boyfriend you can piss in his pocket while he sleeping in a sweet dream. just joking.
taking a shower every single night required lots of I mean lots of filling and draining of water, which is not practical at all. Let's talk about something that makes sense.
Love these videos
How about the incinerator toilets?
I hope your clients sued the pants off the former "builder!"
They are in a lawsuit right now
How much does it cost
- we decided to put a Pop Top on our 144 Sprinter, is there another way to install an air conditioner ?
Awesome van. It has everything for a senior couple.
Is there a 3 person swivel seat? I have 3 kids and wondering if traveling on a van is possible for a family of 5
Looks pretty pricey$ but nice🎉🎉🎉
Swival bench seat is an amazing idea.
Beautiful, but I hate to walk in and see the toilet first.
The counter are to wide and the toilet should come with a automatic close cover for the showering and the over head is to low Very closter situation,no place for company to sleep because they'd be glad visit quickly and leave....
If u going to spent 150k. 7k option is nothing.
😂
If you are running around this world thinking 6 figures is reasonable for a van build out without even checking, then this guy saw you coming. How am I supposed to feel bad here??? Also, she never mentions what a rip-off this was on its face. Hmmm...
Learned the hard way to avoid breakable dishes, thanks for the recommendations. My must-have item to take with me is my HomeFi hotspot, it's been so helpful for working remotely and it can fit in my pocket!
Oh wow.
has anyone ever asked you all to install a gray tank slow drip you can activate when driving?
I thought this 100k van life tread died
Too narrow inside
I dream of one way glass for back windows pricey I'm sure.
