Mind-blowing! The inside is jaw dropping. I still can't get over how big that shower is, and how nice looking their cedar is throughout the trailer. Must smell great.
I love that the closet in the bedroom is full-length. Women do actually wear dresses. Being able to move the bed to make it was a killer idea!! I don't like the TV setup in the living room though. No matter where you are, you will get a stiff neck unless you are watching TV from the kitchen. This customer really did want everything to make it feel like home, but that cold, impersonal gray throughout makes it feel more like a factory than a home.
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN IN LOVE WITH SPACECRAFT RV'S!!! ALWAYS NEXT LEVEL YEARS BEFORE THEIR TIME!!! EVERYTHING IS WEEL THOUGHT OUT AND THEY ALWAYS WORK OUT THEIR CUSTOMERS REQUESTS AND DESIRES!!! JUST FIRE!!!
THIS IS MY NEXT MOVE!!!
Great stuff Ken & Christie thank you for the amazing tour.
That BED pulling out is EPIC! Great job whoever came up with it!
Ok, really pretty, super nice, phenomenal setup, etc... The absolute most impressive part was when they walked in and he closed the door! ...silence... WTF?! So damned impressive!
Robust and fully customizable to the point where they design with the customer. Other brands in the price point are only semi-customizable and will only let you do so much. Spacecraft wins hands down for their engineering too. Electrical and plumbing with the best systems, wiring looms and plumbing manifolds. No rats nest of wires and loose Pex pipe like competitors.
Amazing machine, truly an apocalypse survival BEAST 🤠🙏💯🤟🇬🇧🇺🇲⚡
A really unique, innovative, beautiful and comfortable home! Superb design and construction! Video was very helpful and very well narrated! Great job all around!
Obviously the owner will be incredibly limited to not only the places he can drive to, but the places where he can "camp". I'm a OTR 18 wheeler driver and seriously considered living in a RV fulltime. If I had the money, you could live in this rig fulltime. You could shutdown at any travel center(aka truck stops) anytime. The hard part would be finding dump stations that you can get in and out easily to dump your black water/gray tanks
That was the first thing I thought of...then there's quite a few RV spots that just can't accommodate the large bus style RVs so this would be a no-go
The price this would cost is so much that anyone that could afford one likely has multiple homes and property to camp on themselves
Listen to the first few minutes. He has a system to haul away black and bring back fresh.
He said in the video his tractor has the capability of hauling 100 gallons of fresh water in and a separate tank to haul 100 gallons of black water out.
BLM land here I come
Dump stations at loves and pilots across the country. I’m sure the other ones have them also like TA. You can get water and propane also. Get creative with parking just like we do in a big rig.
great job ken!!!!!!!!! thanks for all the rv videos!!!!!!!!!!
Glad you like them!
Nice work using the ceiling cassettes for the HVAC!
What is the interior wall material? There are super durable, fire rated, but heavy comercial grade panels that use an elastic polymer "plaster". You can hammer nails for pictures as they are structural. Great sound proofing especially over sprayed closed foam. Btw are these trailers engineered for flex? I just hope the guy didnt opt for drywall. Im checking out your web site. I love the potential solar output, pumped into that enormous bank of litiums. Deisel can keep those cells warm when lithiums have the most trouble. I also like the cleanable interior. Im sure you've built Newman or Provost level interiors but the power system on this rig is the best Ive seen.
Outstanding, amazing, awesome house!! I love it. Didn't see anything I don't like!!
Very impressive rig. In October my Spacecraft will be 10 years old. Maybe it's time to upgrade.
Very expensive rig.
Man what an amazing trailer!
I think I would’ve gone with 2@450’s or even 3 vs 250v’s on the solar controllers. 9000 ah at 12v would take around 5 days to charge (maybe more) even in perfect conditions. So, where’s the genset? 2 of the 27kwh batteries would have been plenty and not under paneled for that rig. But what do I know… these guys have been at it for a while. 🤙🏼
Genset is the APU on the hauler. They mentioned that, actually. The reason they over dimensioned the batteries is to charge the car, they can accumulate days of solar and all the excess from the alternators/apu on the main rig and charge the car fully every few days even if the car is fully depleted.
No character and why every RV has the biggest. I do love the outside, very nice.
Very creative. The solar capabilities...awesome. ALL I SAW IN LIVING AREA....❤ CHIEFS
Uma das coisas que eu mais gostei é porque os banheiros vem primeiro depois vem o quarto
This is the best Rv I've seen so far, ❤ I'm in love with this one, can someone present me this one for my birthday 😊
Happy birthday!
I just wish some of these national trailer shows would come up to Minnesota once awhile.
Different kind of trailer for sure if you have the cash to do it.
Makes my wonder what kind of rig will be pulling it.
It seems to me the trailer axles are too far forward and the weights would be off and the tail end would hit the ground but I do see beefy caster rollers on the end of the trailer for those bad spots
Granted the weight of the truck and trailer will be way under to 80,000 pound limit such as they are for the upper Midwest such as Minnesota.
But if this thing roams around California I understand the trailer axles have to be set at certain point.
At 29.18 those marker lights that stick out I can see those are the first things that are going to break off when that trailer is in use.
To me those lights are a bad idea in my opinion.
Yes I could see myself in that trailer too and I have the license to drive and pull that trailer ( class A commercial) but that does not matter for a not for hire rig setup.
One this is for sure you never have to own a house when you have this roaming the byways of America
The fire truck marker lights are made of a rubber flexible composite so won’t break.
Looks like a 20' whip in the back. Why are the axles stet in the middle of the trailer?
how do you get by the laws for each state for rv"s michigan the longest rv can only be 45 feet long and other states are like 35 feet long and a 53 foot trailer you need permits for that by federal law so I would say to anyone thinking about buying one of these trailers to do your investigations because you may buy something you can't use or get rid of
It looks amazing. My biggest nitpick is the beautiful TV in the living room faces the kitchen, no couches. Not the best placement. But other than that, everything looks amazing
What RV park do you ho to in that? Plus can you fit a 3500 HD dually truck in the garage?
Hi spacecraft you guys make that type for pickup trucks or just for semi only
The world's finest 5th wheel manufacturer uses "Flait-it" fittings. Over the past 20 yrs. I have lived full-time RV. In the 3 trailers I lived in, I cut out the factory "Otiker" (or whatever brand) clamps and replaced with Flair-it. In 20 yrs. never had an issue, failure or leak. I am now in the market for a 2020 of later Riverstone and it will get the same treatment, Flair-it fittings throughout. Zero special tools required. I use a Pex cutter and two channel lock pliers, a small 6.5" pair and a medium 9.5" pair.
Is it possible to have aluminum roof & siding?
I have had the chance to tour there place. It’s awesome. We wanted a spacecraft had a design we wanted to build but they want half down and the other half when completed… no financing.
How much are they?
Thos is incredible. I done know why more people don't convert the 48 and 53' dry vans to rv's.
Badass Unit 😎
Those hinges on the storage cabinets don't look all that beefy. They're thin, stamped hinges.
So beautiful! The price?
Spacecraft 2024's to expo camping 2024
Who handled the sliding solar panel construction?
Vocês podia fazer uns vídeos traduzido em português para é entender né é muito bonito os trailer
ENGLAND 🇬🇧 🏴
Do the solar panels hide on the roof, while it’s traveling?
I got to ask, but How much?
So when the battery’s take a crap how expensive are the new batteries
If you have to ask, you can't afford it. I can't so I don't care.
Po boys could never afford sophistication like that. I bet the owner manual is an inch thick if not thicker, beautiful piece ofwork!
Have you found any heat pump water heaters that would work for your builds?
Yes
@@KaplanCycles So you just used a standard residential heat pump water heater
Looks great, but see how low the clearance is. We could not even leave the campground we are in right now
Its lowered on airbags , it raises up
13.6 is the reg height of an 18 wheeler trailer. Truck driver of 42 yrs they won’t have no problem
What’s the cost of a trailer like that?
What does it take to haul this beautiful home? I want one, freightliner?
Volvo tractors are the best, better fuel efficiency (9.25-10 mi/gal), the interior can be converted to a seating area, better suspension (Freightliner is the worst, but not by much), and they drive as easily as driving a car!, msrp: around $200, 000 as opposed to around $150K for most other brands.
So eversource was jacking with prices 11mos ago, unbelievable. We’re in CT also and can’t stand it.
When they won't even give you a Base price,,, you know it's too Damn expensive !!!!
At least 1 mil+

Seems like a beautiful unit. However, What campground can you use it in? Seems like you would have to go to BLM land, only. Not every state has that. It just seems to be a bit much.
This thing is amazing. $1.5M??
4:40 that many batteries is enough juice to power my house 24 hours a day for 5 days. Without any solar input. The fact that they have 10k solar, they would be able to top that off so fast
OMG got to rob me a bank. I want one of these...................
My God, what's a rig like that go for? $$
The only thing missing is the white walls opps almost forgot a cr500.
👌👏
standing there really does feed me....
All l can say is ":WOW":
Think I just changed my mind about a Newell.
Hmmm, I love the Newells but I like the Space craft Brand. It is a toss up
"We can't afford an $800 a month electric bill. Let's buy a $300,000 rig so we can charge our electric car!" BRILLIANT!
Lol, for $300k you get just the shell. This unit is well over $1million.
30 years you pay for this rig. Now a home is really expensive. So the sale price may make sense for some. To each their own!!!!
Then if the full cost is %1,000,000 then you just need to be RICH and needing a hunting camp…
NASCAR will be buying these by the dozens..
@@66reaperecho92 he said rig not trailer.
Greg looks just like Sal Vulcano.
If the ramp gets muddy, your bed has a muddy headboard?
Great point, in muddy terrain we’ve planned to use disposable 15” wide stretch wrap for the 10” wide EV tires on this trailer.
Would prefer insignia stove and oven
I want to hotbox THAT in low rider cheech n chong mode, in park.
2020
What is the length and GCWR?
GVWR is 78,000lbs, overall length 75ft.
80,000 max. Only 2k lbs for gear, people, food etc?
Something doesn’t add up.
4800lb electric car, semi trailer chassis, 600gals of water/
600 gals of waste in stainless steel tanks. 22,000lb loaded Volvo VNL860 tractor.
78,000lbs is the weight on the CAT scales of truck and trailer.
2016 🇬🇧 ✅
It's great
Anyone that can afford it likely has several homes already
Then another 100k$ for something to tow it
More like $200K
Again, I hate it when people don't tell you how much it will cost... I think at least a quarter million, maybe more 🤔
a quarter million won't come close.
@@michaelcollums4197 That was $200K in batteries and solar...
@@michaelcollums4197 I'd say at least 1.5 M$ for the whole thing
if i had to guess its between 1.5-2 M? excluding tractor haha
This one's probably about 600,000
What about tornadoes and hurricanes? Can this unit sustain natural disasters like tornadoes and or hurricanes?
Its tornado proof
@@KaplanCycles What about hurricanes?
Is this sold?
Yes
What ? Isuzu 0:03
I guess if I have to ask……
Awesome rig but the living room furniture doesn’t work…it looks like cheap rental furniture.
What is the story with them blue looking Victron copy's
Love it 👌💯
Cameraman talks about this is a solution to the insane power bills...this is a huge solution since it's off grid...LOL but it's like 1Mil or something...Not exactly an option for 98% of the population
Ya'll thinkin ooooh pretty rig. No....this is an apocalypse house. Once I heard this was a HAM guy, yep, he's getting far away during the coming hell. One thing he is missing is a rainwater collection system.
Notice the RO water system? He can pull water from a lake or stream with a transfer pump and clean it as he needs.
Honestly if I was spending this much money I would probably get a yacht instead.
I’m willing to bet anything that the buyer of this unit is Elon Musk.
I don't know how you can pull a 57' trailer on US highways when trucking companies can only pull 53'
RVs are not governed by DOT. Non-commercial. Drivers should still get a CDL Class A manual license.
@andrewkeech9605 I have one I have been driving trucks since 1983. I have a hard time with the idea that anyone can legally drive a 57' trailer down the road, but a company hauling freight cannot. Not only that, I remember when 53' trailers first came out, they were not allowed off the interstate past the first mile. There are very few places that RV'S go that you could take this thing.
@@carlgshock Spacecraft make a lot of these 57’ trailers for the circus industry. They have for a long time. I have no problem booking RV parks that can handle this length. I just spent my summer in and out of RV parks with no problem. You just have to plan ahead, then you don’t have an issue. Non-commercial drivers with longer rigs in the US don’t fall under the same rules at commercial.
Hahahaha
Man this makes me feel poor 😂
I’m sure that’s economically priced so most Americans can afford to have one🙄
Most can't or don't need to be driving a rig this large anyway. Something doesn't have to be for all or available to everybody. Not everyone is in same tax bracket nor should be.
Our rig cost about the same as an average house plus we can drive it to where I want to stay. We live in it full time.
No, it’s priced to give American middle class jobs to build and maintain everything that goes into this.
@@diverrnurse But 15yrs later my house has more than doubled in value...this well maybe half the purchase price
@@user-fw6eg3hc8f and the folks that buy these know this. It’s not a surprise to them.
Waaaaaaaaaaay to much overhang tailswing.
That’s Just solar panels. Free Electric , Except for the cost to buy . I would buy on my own . Would save about $30 K most Likely
