Really great side by side from people actually living in the vans vs a dealer walk through. Super informative, nice job guys.
Thanks Jason! Appreciate the comment.
Guys, thank you for this video! Thanks to it, I made up my mind and I today I visited Chris at La Mesa RV and ordered my Storyteller. First Adventure Van in my whole life! I'm so nervous and excited!!! Thanks so much!!!
Nice!! Hope you said hi to Chris for us! And CONGRATS!!! You’re gonna love it! Can’t wait to see you on the road.
@@ChadandPaul Curious, do you make a commission on the sale? You should. :)
@@darteightyfour haha no we don’t! We’re just proud storyteller owners.
THANK YOU!! I am in the early stages of downsizing from a 4br house to van life and this video is such a help to contrast these two vehicles, much appreciated.
Nice!! And thanks for watching Samantha! 🙏 really appreciate it!
I really love that storyteller. The Volta system is just a game changer. I love my Lagun table as well. He needs a shelf in his pantry cabinet for more usable space. What a great comparison.
Thanks Jonnie! We love our Volta! And good point on the shelf. Hope all is well! ❤️
Excellent video! I love that you have both described the features of vans but more importantly the way you use it. Anyone can go to the web site and look at the features or specs but understanding your experience with the van is what makes this video very special.
Thanks Marcel! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏
This video needed to be made a long time ago. Great content with this one guys! This will surely be one of your most viewed.
Thanks Anthony! Appreciate it 🙏
Seeing them compared back to bask was great
The GLSS would solve most of his issues with the Revel: workspace, variety, microwave and more.
Ideally, I'd want the Storyteller with the Revel bathroom.
That GLSS is awesome, along with everything @CanyonAdventureVans makes.
Exactly my thoughts. I like the ready made bed of the revel too. But I also like roof top space and the electrical system of the story teller.
great mind thinks alike lol
if I could have a storyteller beast with revel bathroom and cassette, … I wouldnt be debating myself and watching this video
As of now, I am leaning towards the storyteller… provided dealers still have slots available for this year and I get over my fear of having that little porta potty. I am not into showering or doing my “things” in public places … so this what is stopping me now
The halo shower in the STO? I am fine with that, but the toilet 🚽 … 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Nice job Chad! Thanks also to Shawn for sharing his van and thoughts. I'm like Shawn in that I really cannot see myself relying on public restrooms all the time and definitely have some hang-ups about the outdoor pooping but I also really like the advantages that not having a bathroom affords you in the StoryTeller. I know it is difficult topic to discuss but I really think a video about how you poop in the woods safely and in an environmentally friendly manner would do really well and maybe convince some of us that are more squeamish about it that it isn't so bad.
Thanks!! A toilet video has been on the list for a while now. Hehe it’ll come!
@@ChadandPaul I heard magnesium helps! Ha ha.
Wow guys…..what a video. This is the best video I have seen comparing the two vans.
My wife and I went and saw a Revel a few months back and the quality and lay out left a great deal to be desired. Hoping the border will open up soon and hopefully we can see a STO in the flesh. You guys are really hitting your stride with these videos. Just keep getting better and better!
Cam
Thanks Cam! Really appreciate that! Yes hoping the border opens soon! Would love to show you our rig!
Hope it’s soon!
Wow. Totally impressed. Thank you for the comparisons. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!!
I loved the discussion back and forth between you guys. It really helped me with some decisions regarding how I want my van to be set up. Thanks for that!
Thanks for watching Stan!
EXCELLENT VIDEO! You raised the bar. I love the way that the Storyteller virtually sold itself to him and me!. The key to good salesmanship is transferring your excitement to a potential customer and I could feel that happening! STO needs to sponsor you! I love the Volta system as well. I would have it on my buggy if were Amish :} After MONTHS of research, I am buying a STO next week! Again, you were both excellent ambassadors for the brand/model! Happy new year!
This was great! Thanks guys. 👍❤️
Thanks Nancy!
SO helpful to see the comparisons.
Excellent video. Thank you.
The Stupid Storyteller's open concept Toilet was the breaker for me !!
Revel's bed was the number 2 deal breaker !
Revel is definitely the Winner!
Great video and very informative. Thought I was going to go with the Revel in the Futura, but with the side by side comparisons I am now sold on the Storyteller
Great side by side comparison. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!! ❤️
You guys are 1st class and things are well thought out! 👍
Thanks Barbara!
Refreshing and honest. Thank you!
🙏
Just looked up prices for both rigs - StoryTeller Classic base price around USD$157,000 and Revel is $202,000. The insulation/no rattling, being able to run microwave and A/C off the battery, the flexibility and the price have sealed the deal for me on the Storyteller, although not going to buy until I have a chance to look at the upcoming Storyteller AWD Transit and decide if I need true 4wd or if AWD would suffice. Love the space saving shower and the front bed, which my big dog would love (she snuggles with me for a while then chosses to go to her own bed). Thank you for doing this comparison!
Our pleasure! We think it’s a no brainer. But for those that really can’t live without a walled-in dedicated wet bath the revel is probably the better fit.
This was great awesome video very detailed thank you for explaining your vehicles
Thanks for watching!!
Thank you for the informative video. I purchased my 2020 Revel in 01/20 (pre pandemic pricing); back then there was about a $30k difference between the two vans. Demand has since changed price and/or availability. I’ve done upgrades including Roamrig (4 lithium battery conversion), Glss lounge with microwave, suspension/tires (265s), and Owl products (tire carrier/ladder, bike carrier with med size box.) I do like the dedicated shower/ toilet space in the Revel. As (2) full-time travelers, I can see why you would prefer the additional floor space and build quality in the STO. All the best:)
Good to know! Yes that GLSS from @canyonadventurevans is definitely the way to go for the revel!
Very thorough and informative video! 🚐
Thanks Tara!!
Their are RV shows in Florida that you can buy that same Revel for 120,000 and the Storyteller almost 200,000 ,that is a big deal of money. I hear a lot of people up north say they pay 170,000 for the Revel. that makes a difference in deciding what to buy. The 2022 classic mode sells for $157.747, that's not bad for what you get.
Both are great. I’d be happy with either.😀
FYI!! The ladder that comes with the revel on the back door is for stowing ONLY! Not supposed to climb it there. You move it to the driver side side of van to use it to climb.
Good to know! Thanks for the info 👍👍👍
Good side by side comparison guys. As a former Revel owner I think you guys nailed the positives and minuses on the Revel. We couldn't do a Mode because we felt the back was too claustrophobic with cabinets on both sides of the bed, especially if you are taller, and while I like the Murphy bed concept and desk, especially if we needed to work like you guys do, but to use it you sacrifice a lot of storage space.
Thanks Will! All great points! Every van is a compromise and luckily there are many options out there to choose from. Hope to see you on the road!!
@@ChadandPaul Absolutely. We love our new van, but it wouldn't be a good fit for you guys with your need to have a work platform for two people.
Starting my search for a van RV for me & my bassets & so happy I found this channel
You guys are awesome
I think I’ve now made my choice
Thanks Rusty! Congrats! We LOVE our storyteller.
@@ChadandPaul that’s what I’m going with… the beast mode is my choice
Your vid helped
Very nice presentation!
Thanks for sharing guys. I did not know what kind of fraternity I was joining when I bought my Westy 20 years ago. But I am very grateful to see that our community is growing. If you are ever in Colombia... we could hang! שלום
So cool! Yes, Westy's have a huge fan club! Would love to see you in Colombia!
They both have great features. Volta and the fit and finish of the STO. The cassette toilet is nice. I like the STO shower because I’m 6’2.
I’d have to do a STO with the GLSS. I could work around the toilet and I need a microwave. I like the Revel windows though and shades. The STO roof is great. Everything is a compromise with an Rv. ✌🏼
Yes! Always a compromise- it all comes down to your needs. There’s no such thing as the perfect RV.
Awesome Video... Great Info...
Orlando Has Got It Made In The Shade...
Haha 100%!
Have driven the Revel. Will head up to Hood River for the expo this weekend to check out the STO Mode! Your van setup looks great!
Nice! We’ll be there! Come say hey.
Wow, good news I think we made the correct decision for us. Great info thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Love the Storyteller provides so much more space & options!
Great info!
Agreed! 100%!
The storyteller offers exactly the same amount of space, they are both 144” Sprinters.
Sleeping width wise rather than length wise completely changes the floor plan. Then there is the bathroom problem, in which the storyteller fails completely. I would love to have either since my RV is an old Chevy Express delivery van, but if I had my choice? Well I guess it would depend a little on whether I had a partner or not.
The "open" bathroom concept of the Storyteller is a little more difficult for me to imagine using while traveling with my DH. The advantage over the fixed cassette toilet of the Revel's bathroom, however, is that when in your spot camping you can move it outside into a little potty tent. Said potty tent can also be used for showering and changing when the weather isn't too cold. Either way, if you are not alone in your van you'll need to get used to very little privacy on the toilet. I think some music, singing, or just telling your partner to 'get out' is acceptable. Hey, the Storyteller comes with that portable speaker!
This video was so helpful. Thank you, Chad, Paul, and Shawn!
Thanks for watching Amy!
Great information! Either one of them would be good for us to do our travels, hopeful some time this year
Awesome!!
Enjoyed the information
Thanks Jana!
I started watching you 2 years Ago,you are my first youtube sub., I've always been a camper person, I have a big cabover, I want to put on a Isuzu, or gm cab forward thing, a tilt lift bed allows the cab to go forward for maintenance..
The PUP is the best actor though ! 😂
Wanted to point out that having the power seats is awesome. Most people don’t know that you can set the memory buttons to remember where to put the seat for swiveling. I have memory 1 for my seat location while driving and number 2 for positioning the seat to swivel and number 3 to put it all the way back. Push, hold and release and the seat will go to that position automatically.
Yes! Good thing to point out- we do the same thing. But once it’s swiveled if you want to adjust it, it requires some awkward reaching behind you.
@@ChadandPaul that’s true as well. I just leave it and don’t adjust anything. Love your videos and upgrades by the way. I just bought an American Coach Patriot 4x4 version and trying to find space saving ideas.
Chad and Paul, another great video. Thank you! One correction for future video is that the storyteller has a "portable toilet"; not a "cassette toilet". I know Storyteller incorrectly calls it a cassette toilet in some of their literature (or even mixes the name of the two types of toilets and mentions "Portable Cassette toilet", but that is incorrect. A cassette toilet is a toilet that is fixed inside the van and is not removable. Only its cassette (the tank) is removable and typically from the outside through a access hatch/panel. A portable toilet, like the one Storyteller includes with their vans, allows for the entire unit to be moved/removed. Just thought I'd mention it as the confusion between a cassette toilet and portable toilet seems to be getting more common so thought we could nip it in the bud! Ha. Thank again for all your great storyteller videos!
Thanks Mr. Chad! Appreciate the clarification- good information to know! We’ll keep this in mind moving forward. Also- love your name!
Excellent
I like that with the shower in the cabinet that is cool I liked it a lot I like the other one too but I rather have the shower in the back instead of in the front happy travels and stay safe guys
Thanks Hilde!! ❤️
Great job, very helpful. Cost comparison would have added value, I did hear $30K in upgrades form the Revel owner. Thanks!
Great video. Story Teller so far is the best van i've seen.
I think perfect van would be the Transit 148" 4x4 with Revel features such as bathroom, bed, garage (GLSS with bed risers/slide out tray) and Storyteller features such as roof rack, power, water fill, insulation, and build quality/materials).
🤙🤙🤙 sounds like a winner
Thank u guys.
I decided to go for storyteller.
On either conversion you decide on, our ladder is compatible with both!
We love our aluminess ladder!
Fantastic comparo! Watched the video with my wife and she’s now sold on a storyteller.
Thanks!! Tried to make it as objective as possible and get a revel owners take. Glad it was informative! We do love our storyteller.
Great work, Thank you. Just missing some cats for your vans!
haha we’re more dog people
Great video! You two seem awesome….I might encourage you though, to rethink the cat holes while boondocking. Lots of people out in the wilds these days.
Your van looks fantastic, that said, our 2021 Revel is perfect for us.. we love it. I’m a new subscriber and will stay tuned.
Thanks for following along Mary Beth!
Great video. Funny that the bed in the Revel was the thing I thought I would like the most and you guys completely changed my mind.
Thanks for watching!
Love those Sandals Chad!!
hehe thanks!!!
Finally found it, I think the Storyteller is amazing! And I could sit there and play the piano and watch out! ^^ 36:30
it would be great if they could combine the best of both cmapervans into one.
build your own! =]
I wonder why people don't just get a truck over camper like the Lance Long Bed 1172 for example. So much more room, can have good solar, lithium, even a genny for emergencies or when weather issues get in the way. They are way more comfortable layout, without playing move the cushions. Then you can drop the jacks, drive out the truck and you have a truly capable 4x4 of your choice to go exploring. Probably a 75k savings. The last thing I would want in the middle of nowhere is Mercedes repairs.
Super nice just love your set up and the power who needs solar panel it would be wasted space and the roof deck and storage is great. Your suspension kit installed what was your cost? Who needs a house when you can have a nice home just like you guys
100%! I forget the cost- we had ours installed by Owl Vans- I’d recommend checking them out. Great company doing great work!
I went with the 23 Revel. I may add a 640ah giving me 960 kw. AT a cost of $8500. Before I get the upgrade, I am feeling out my usage patterns. Great video. By the way,I saw a Beast Mode on the highway, and it is a very impressive vehicle.
I have previously owned a Revel, but this time around I ordered a STO… nice comparison.
Thanks Katherine! And congrats on the storyteller!
No private lavatory is a deal-breaker for me!
Thank you.
Thanks Mason!!
Excellent comparison. Thank you both for this video. Questions: how often do you need to clean the interior of the grey, fresh and black water tanks. Can you even clean them? I wonder whether the interior of these tanks will get dirty or gross over time.
We have a cassette toilet so no black tank to worry about. We haven't found we needed to clean the gray tank. There are all kinda of solutions you can buy to do so, but we've never felt the need. We do sanitize the freshwater tanks a few times per year or if water has been sitting in the tank in the heat for an extended period of time, as we drink from the fresh water tank.
Definitely a really good video. It opens your eyes to a lot of different things and having a perspective from both people who actually on those vans was very valuable. The double tap The dislike button was funny hahahah . Thanks !!
It would be really nice to hear both of your opinions and experience with maintenance and mechanical issues. Obviously both of the vans are built on the same chassis but it would be great to hear about the things you’ve gone through replaced fixed or had so-called nightmares with.
Thanks Devon! Appreciate the comment. We plan on doing another video just about our experience full time in our STO for 5 months now. We’ll be sure to include those details 🤙
Great video I just wish that the price was more manageable
CAV's GLSS would solve his work space problem as well as providing the same table you have for the front. They could also replace the roof rack to meet his needs but nobody can compete with your Volta system. My only dislike on the STO is sleeping under cabinets. I have a feeling STO may be considering a new Mode with a fixed bathroom or at least an option . That could be a game changer for alot of potential buyers. Great job on this video. Just have to decide what works for your needs.
Thanks Stephen! Yes who knows what the future holds for STO. They’ll be making some big announcements on July 4th I believe.
We have been sleeping under the cabinets in the Mode since October of last year. The claustrophobic feeling lasted about a week and once we learned to duck in/out of the bed without hitting our head on the cabinet headliner, we are absolutely fine with the design. Those cabinets store a lot of stuff, there’s plenty of head space under the cabinets even with two plush pillows under the head and really, the only reason you might not want the cabinets there is if you would prefer to sit in your bed. But for that purpose you have lounge in the Mode.
Love your sunday videos guys!! Was wondering where do you put a trash can in storyteller?
Thanks Christopher! We have a trash can velcroed to the garage floor at the very back of the van. Works great for us.
Another great video. At this point I'm totally sold on the Storyteller.
100%!
This helped me choose (there really is no comparison) - storyteller all the way!
Pity you didnt do the full 60 minutes! Great content and editing. Looking forward to more of the same.
Thanks Steve!!
For the Revel, what is the vertical distance between the floor and the bed? I’m curious about how tall someone is before they can’t fit standing up any more. Thanks?
That’s a good question and I’m not sure. Paul is 5’8” and he didn’t come close to being able to stand in the garage under the bed.
Crazy that I can find a revel for significantly cheaper than the storyteller after their 20k price increase.
Great video! I was looking at the Revel but now I am gonna look at the storyteller! Also, if you don't mind letting me know how much you paid for it and then the upgrades, I would really appreciate it! And if there was a certain dealer you got it from? Thanks again and have a great journey!
Storyteller uses see through pricing, so no haggling down from MSRPs. Go to their website and see what the listed prices are- that's how much you'll pay. We used Cathy from La Mesa RV in Sanford, FL and had a wonderful experience with them.
Just ordered Revel at Hershey show. Didn’t see SS here. My only complain about Revel is no microwave
Yes! Didn’t realize at first the revel doesn’t have a microwave! We use ours all the time!
Amazing vid. Revel lost its edge maybe. STO = Powered by Volta ! Nice work gents :)
Thanks Scott! Yes the Storyteller is total win with the Volta system! Hope all is well!
Great video! Is it possible to have the revel bed added to the storyteller? Have you ever seen this done?
Haven’t seen it done and can’t foresee it happening- the big plus of the storyteller is that you can stand in the garage
I like the story teller better I’m 6’4” and my wife is 5’7” I think to adjustability is Amazing and the roof storage has a great advantage thanks for sharing
Thanks for commenting Gary! 🙏
Thank you so much!!! I was looking at a revel to live out of but after seeing the options I was looking for and extra room in your storyteller is life changing!!
🙌
How comfortable is the storyteller groove lounge for an adult as a regular car seat during a long drive ? It looks very vertical, can it recline and still be used as a car seat with the seatbelt ? All the reviews I've seen never comment on this, only the lounge features. Thanks.
Hey John! Great question! It is really quite comfortable! You can even recline it. While I drive, Paul likes to sit back there and do work on the lagun table. Works great!
What kind of wood is on the face of those cabinets I wonder?
The Revel is great and the issue about power is handled by a company that specializes in the Revel to offer unlimited power in the same space as a complete install..! The story teller is great too, that HALO bathroom, Oh my and the ability to fully stand and sit anywhere, NO squeaks, WOW, but in that model a tiny cassette-WELL, Storyteller still wins IMO....
🙌
No one talks about off-roading! I would really love to hear how both vehicles do off-road, fully loaded. I realized you have the same chassis, but did either build address angle of descent/ascent, top-heaviness, water storage throwing it off balance, can a wench actually work to get unstuck?
They dont do great but can handle light terrain. It is a 9k lb 10 foot high van, you already know how it offroads. Winches get them freed from being stuck.
If you’re gonna do some true off roading on either I’d definitely consider some upgrades- check out Owl Vans- they have a lot of mods and also do off road trips as well.
Letz go Jayco Terrain 4x4! Story Teller is probably better but I can't get that van up here in Canada.
The only thing that is bad is the toilet and the shower option in the Story Teller. If you are a solo traveler, it's ok, but with a partner, eww.
There is no privacy in 144:) “bathroom” or not
Those gays love eachothers poop 💩 🤮
I would do the storyteller for sure! 😍
Great comparison. I thought I wanted a Revel……now🤔
👍👍👍
Ah I’ve been watching videos on the Revel for years now. I’m in Canada, so the Storyteller is not available up here (although I could import the van in from a dealer in the US, but at a much higher cost and issues with insurance etc.). I have two little kids too, 4 and 6 years old, the Revel passenger seat is terrible, while the Storyteller is absolutely ideal. My wife needs that enclosed bathroom in the Revel, and although I could live with the one in the Storyteller, we are a motocross family, and we have a ton of dirty gear which would fit nicely in the Revel’s bathroom. Having a dedicated second bed in the Storyteller is really clutch, even though there is 3rd party solution for the revel but it is cramped. I like the Revel’s garage for two kid’s motocross bikes (electric) but I think I could pull off the same thing in the Storyteller. The Volta system and roof of the Storyteller is also incredible. The revel is also about 20,000 CAD cheaper than the prices I see for the Storyteller in CAD ($234 k vs. $254 k CAD). The insulation of the Storyteller is also very nice since I do live in Canada and would love to boondock with my family in the dead of winter. 360 camera would be awesome too as I have that in my SUV right now.
Nice description of the pros of each! Ultimately what matters most isn’t the specs of the van, but what you do with it. Hope to see you on the road!!
I've done some much research on the revel vs the storyteller to make a decision. I cannot express enough how invaluable this video was. Going with the storyteller for sure
I like both vans for different reasons. The best review Ive ever seen. Yet I keep hearing folks upgrade
after all that money. I wished these companies would listen more to the client. Are there companies that build to your specifications? I'm looking for one to use mainly for traveling with family. I would get the storyteller if there could be a twin bed instead.
Hi, I really like the comparison: but what are the $, all in costs, that you are comparing here?
We didn’t put the price in the video in case things change. For STO they use transparent pricing, so the price on their website is the price u get it for. With Winnebago it all depends on how much of a discount you can get from a dealer. Last time I check I think the revel was more expensive than the storyteller.
One of the reason I choose to purchase a used Travato GL was to enjoy a nice RV with Volta while we determine our exact needs. Won’t really know until we try it out for awhile and didn’t want to wait for inventory. Great job on this. Orlando is a scene stealer!
100%! The most important thing is to get out there and explore! You’ll LOVE the Volta system. And the G design is a great floor plan!
I love you guys
Thank you!!! Hehe ❤️
Revel for me
Also for the Revel, you didn’t show the vertical pantry between the galley and the loft bed, I’d like to see that and know how usable it is for hanging clothes.
Yes! Sorry about that. We did have to forgo discussing some features or it would have been an hour long video lol. Not sure about hanging clothes in that cabinet- will have to ask Sean.
No worries, I really appreciate this video. It’s great that you did it with someone who lives in a Revel. Other videos from STO (nation) owners talking about the STO versus Revel get pretty hostile if anyone makes a positive comment about anything in the Revel.Thanks for a great, positive side by side with no harsh judgment.
Where did you get the headliner that you installed in the storyteller?
We went with the vanwife shelf. It works but the install was TERRIBLE. Wouldn’t recommend it for that reason. There are other headliner shelves on the market.
@@ChadandPaul ok thank you! I was looking at that shelf too so good to know
Thank you for the review. Your video confirmed my preference, the Story Teller.
👍👍👍 thanks for watching Hannah! 🙏
I've just started researching adventure vans and I must say this almost convinces me that we go with Storyteller. Really good job from everyone explaining day to day living in one of these vans. Our intent is to drive one through Mexico, down to Costa Rica , Panama and maybe beyond and the Storyteller seems the vehicle in which to do that.
Similarities are both are vans and both have a factory somewhere in the US which is the only competent repair center. Difference is the the story teller is made with quality in mind and the Winnebago is made by a company that barely cares. One is put together by careful craftsman and the other is jammed together as fast as possible with power screwdrivers.
🤣 I don’t disagree lol
