The nice thing is that you can put it in your garage and keep it in great condition for a lot of years to come. My brother just redid his VW Westfalia but wants the 4X4 Sportmobile. That’s a lot of money for a weekend toy! This is a lot more practical but limited where you can go. Those Journey kits you showed last time look great but once completed it’s not going to fit in your garage. So much to choice from but does it hit all your needs.
I think this option is good for a family that lives in the city but ventures to the country quite a bit. I could see me using this as my mobile office to go to trade shows up and down the west coast. Table for work on my laptop. Bed to sleep and save money by not going to hotels. Plus a camp kitchen to cook at the drop of a hat. It's not hard core overland....but some people dont need hard core 4x4 Vans. Probably wont win cool points because it's a mini van with 2wd....but it seems practical if you use it as it's designed to be used. Weekend warrior.
That's actually a pretty nifty contraption for the occasional "light" camper. The price point is attractive - the price of an average pick up truck. Good product; good video. "Thumbs up" from this Kentucky boy.
I couldn't be sure from the video, but it looks like you can't stand up due to the upper bunk?? Cool concept and I like the pricing. Better ground clearance and some all terrain tires are, in my opinion, are all you need. The 4x4 Sprinter vans look cool, but as top heavy as they are, I wouldn't take one on any serious off-roading. Check out Pleasureway's Tofino. It does allow for standing over the galley and, I think, seating for 5.
This is for someone with specific needs. Someone who doesn't need 4x4, doesn't need to stand up, doesn't need a lift, doesnt need a built in galley....but does need 5 seat belts, does need 2 beds, does need to park inside the garage. A weekend warrior basically. Lives in the urban city but plays in the country on the weekend. Nothing hard core. Much like the old VW westfalia. Europeans dont overland so to speak....they car camp lol. I can tell this is modeled after that style.
This is pretty cool, but I don't like that it doesn't include bug screens in the windows and a place portable toilet. I kind of expect extra features from a company made RV, even a camper van RV.

Thanks for watching. From a Nevada boy!
Totally not for me but I do think it's very cool. The innovation just keeps on coming and now more than ever there truly is something for everyone.

Cool man! Thanks for making vids man. Love what you do!
Sweet vans!
NV200 has cabinets and storage on the side and that's why you can only seat two. This is not an apple to apple comparison.
4x4 with a lift would be nice. Just hate working on vans. Outside of that nice.
Sweet. I can hear the love in your voice.
Thanks!
Very nicely done.
Can the bed be pushed up so that there’s standing room in the mini van?
Hi. I'm looking for that pop-up top for my dodge caravan as well. Where can I inquire?
where can get this one?
Do you know where I can buy a pop top for 08 toyota sienna?
4x4 would be nice
Woo hoo! Az life! The great Wild Wild West. I like you now, guy.
Can one of the back seats be removed,so there’s room for a port a potty?
I would think so.
This is pretty cool, but I don't like that it doesn't include bug screens in the windows and a place portable toilet. I kind of expect extra features from a company made RV, even a camper van RV.
You might be able to ad bug screens with aftermarket parts.
Wow 😮
Really like it
ok metris or Nissan nv200? Mercedes finance this?
I like the Nissan a little better.
Oh yes, that is nice
Doug demuro would say the Mercedes metris is the worst mini van ever lol
He is referring to the 7 passenger model with 3 rows. This is the cargo model setup for camping.
Nope
Mercedes are piles of junk, ridiculous! Maybe a used toyota sienna
I would prefere a Toyota sienna awd. ...which I already own. Maybe I can put that camp box in my van?
Nice camping ideas but stay away from this minivan!
Rich why?
@@lesliegranowski2683 Please research reliability and construction details of van by Mercedes; it's not very good, best regards.
