@@Trekers Yes, playing with words, now if they configured it and then suggested or showed other possible configurations, I get it. I actually did this, installed a couple of rails and sockets in my UK van to make a removable campervan interior. I now live in Portugal where self builds are difficult and expensive to licence and may do this again.
RV stands for Recreational Vehicle. What's fake about this? Different, yes, and not for folks looking to hang out at an RV resort, which the company states. But still an RV. -Ari
I priced out the van and Adventure Wagon set up as if I bought the van, Adventure priced out around $27k without install $10k) Also not included was the bed mattress, the Eco Flow Set up, and a few other things, Van priced out around $65k. For $110,000, which is what I’m paying, I’m saving a bunch of time to have the modular system I want to build upon. Adventure Wagon said to remove the panels to add systems is easy. Not sold on the eco flow AC/power set up for my needs, but would work for a weekend warrior. In my opinion, the Revel or equivalent is now reasonably priced around $140k if you want a mini RV set up. Personally, I like not having all the cabinets and fixed in place weight that will not wear well if you truly use the rig as it is capable when add a RIPP kit. I would actually liked to see this concept expanded upon with built in beefed up Solar, AC, and a built in electrical system with conduit run behind the walls. I would have gladly paid the $30k difference difference from the Revel to not have to deal with those systems and have the interior totally modular that I could build out in an afternoon. The custom builders have to charge a premium because of the man hours involved in custom work. Plug-in play is where I believe this headed. Winnebago took a chance and is headed in the right direction.
Cool idea BUT..also lame..Y’all are nuts. Comparing this to better than a tent?? The pricing is such a turn off. This “cool colab” will NOT sell at sticker price. All I hear on these videos is desperately trying to justify a ludicrous asking price. This will be a one time partnership.
I agree the pricing on RVs, particularly anything in the Class B market, has gotten crazy. But for some people, this might be the answer. The best camping set up is the one that works for you. Thanks for watching! -Ari
I don't remember them talking about solar, and the electrical system seems to be based on the EcoFlow portable system, along with 12V plugs and USB outlets throughout the van.

@@Trekers I spoke with the folks at Adventure Wagon. Easy to remove the panels to upgrade. I’m paying $110k for the 144. If I bought the van and paid adventure to install, I’d be close to that number. I figure Winni gets a discount on both van and AW systems.
If I was customizing this Winnebago I add lime green shag carpeting, lava lamps, 8-track player, and a water bed...✌☮
You should let Adventure Wagon know they need to update their retro accessories line! 😎
Its empty van. I took 2 companies to come up with that. 😁
You call it empty, they call it configurable. 😄

The removable camper van interior sounds like a great plan. Good luck if you decide to do another build like that.
A fake RV

It’s a homemade starter van RV…for $160k PLUS.. insanity.
@@factsoverfeelingspam2220 160k, wow that's crazy.
The entire Class B market has skyrocketed to somewhat ridiculous levels, that's for sure.

Is the van pre plumbed for solar and an upgraded electrical system or will you have to deconstruct the van. Thx

Good info to have. Thanks for sharing what you found out!
What’s the specs of the bed?
According to Adventure Wagon, the length of the assembled bed is 77" long at the center and 67" wide.
