❤ Me and the Wife will be empty nesters in two years. We will be 42 years old. We plan to do exactly what yall did. Quit our jobs and go travel the united states. Your videos inspire us and we can't wait to do it.
Lack of subs because they look like a couple of BLM fanatics, you go woke you go broke, I may of course be very wrong but that’s the vibe I got. Got to admit the video production is A+
Awesome! Thanks Burke. We will be taking this beast all over and sprinkle in some more Revel Van centric stuff along the way! Glad to have you around :)
Thanks for the tour! We actually ordered a 2022 (same color), but as they kept pushing the availability date forward we got antsy and ended up finding a great deal on a used 2019 Revel. The storage is a tad bit different in the 2019, but most of it is similar. I enjoyed seeing how you fit everything in and it gives me hope that we can fit all our stuff in there too. 😉
Thanks Susan! Definitely better to be in one than to be waiting. You got this haha. It is a constant organizational puzzle. Plus, you got a little more room in the garage :).
Yeah, Mercedes factory was shut down during when COVID started and its back up however there's a global chip shortage and many dealers cant even order for 2021, 2022 seems like the year however depends on how long the chip shortage will be resolved and things get back going.
Yes, definitely have to put a lot of thought into what we actually need compared to want haha. Also trying to stay in decently warm weather 40+ helps. Thanks for the feedback Tedi ❤️
Hi Guys. we have travelled the world and done 2 years in a motorhome caring and travelling. We are looking to build our own van and this is a great set of videos to help along with our knowledge of travelling. Stay safe guys and thanks again.
Hi Kevin! Thank you for the love. We will be continuing to travel around and are so glad that our videos can help other people or atleast entertain them :)
We loved your video! We went to purchase a Revel today and put a deposit down. You guys sealed the deal for us. My wife said you know we have to name the Van! I said yes what should we name it? Your video came up and you named your Van Tina! My wife’s name is Tina! So funny!!! Thank you guys we look forward to more videos from your Tina to ours!!
Really enjoyed the video. Great overview view and kept me engaged. Amy and I just picked up our 2022 last week. We love the bench and table you made for the back. Do you know where we can get similar accessories ?
Hi Darren, thanks! Yes, the company “80/20” sells extruded aluminum and all the parts you will need for the base. The actual cushion is plywood with foam & then fabricated.
This is the first of your videos I have seen. You guys are so neat, I was thinking that you don’t really use it much - until I saw all that food! Nice video. I wish I could keep my Ascent that neat.
We try and we definitely use it. we are full time in here :) it does take a bit of cleaning, but luckily it is a small space. Also, doesn’t hurt to make it look halfway decent for the vid 🤫
As a single person the bed will probably feel amazing! We are full time with 2 and the bed is the only thing that feels a little tight… well maybe the amount of food too 😂
All Winnebago Class Bs have the same cheap sink. puck lights, table, the cabinet latches open if something inside hits it, cheap shower head, cheap instrument dial for battery info, the toilet is emergency use only... insulation is spotty, propane only last three days in the cold weather...but I still like the over all job it does.
Nicely done video guys! I’m widowed so it would usually be me and my German Shepherd. I would love to sleep 2 separately though. Do you think it’s doable? How difficult is cooking on the electric plate? You didn’t get into that but I believe that’s the only source? I had sprinters for my business, and they’re the only chassis I would get. Best of luck, and enjoy your travels!
Hi Paul! We have seen a lot of people make dog modifications and separate bed near the bench seat. Lots of cools options. If you are considering this van I would suggest joining the Winnebago Revel Facebook site. The electric plate works well. We also have a separate travel propane grill. So many different cooking options on FB group as well. Thanks for the great questions. The Mercedes has been wonderful.
Thanks Stephen, we found an old laptop bag that is padded and the stovetop fits perfectly in the bottom pantry shelf. It takes up 2/3 of that shelf though.
I think I found your guy’s channel early! I can see you guys going far and I’ll be following all the way. I’m from South Africa, currently working on the yachts in Europe but when I’m done I’m definitely going for a year in a van. Where do you guys plan on traveling?
Robbie that means a lot! All over North America. Waiting for the Canada border to open so we can explore Canada and head up to Alaska. Fingers crossed it opens soon!
Nice video! Keep up the good work. I like your clothing storage bins. They seem to fit well and look good. No link in description...can you share info and size. The collapsible felt ones are cool too. Did find Amazon link in description for those but, what sizes are you using and where? My Revel is Silver and I call her, Bullet :)
I found the bins in one of your other videos! Thx. Now where did you get that particular paper towel holder? Dislike one I have and one you have seems to fit under rack perfectly and covers entire bottom of rack. Is it a two piece ordeal? Also what storage solutions are you using in your GLSS?
@@P6life Hi Dennis! I am glad you found the link to the custom bins. They are great for that space. Love the name Bullet! We are updating this video with the link as well and will add the craftsman magnetic paper towel holder in there :) It attaches right to the metal. We use one of the large felt colapsable bins for the GLSS and then the other portion is open for our camping gear (tent, backpacks etc..) (Note: Our GLSS was made by us so it may have different dimensions than the CAV one)
You had me hunting that thing down (magnetic paper towel holder) and before you responded I ran into Yamazaki-- organization for small spaces. Ordered their minimalistic looking magnetic paper towel holder and their magnetic 3 swing arm dish towel holder-- might even try hanging 🍌 off of one arm. Going to try the two together. Keep you posted.
Thank you for a wonderful walk through & great ideas. Which swing arm and.bike rack are you using? How did you choose? Are there pros & cons of certain brands/models?
Hi Deborah, it is the Rocky Mount backstage. The link is in the description. This is all in one and was in stock and cheaper than some of the other brands while still having amazing reviews. Only thing I would say with our van is that it swings to the passenger side where the ladder can get in the way. Would be nice to get a drivers side swing.
@@FarisandLisa What brand is the bike cover? Do you like it? Thoughts and suggestions are much appreciated. My husband and I also have a 2021 Revel and are looking for a bike cover.
@@christiemurphy2184 Hi, the link to the bike cover is in the description. It is a tad big for two bikes but has held up for the past 4 months and has keep our bikes dry and also keeps the dust off when going down dirt roads. I wouldn’t leave without putting it on.
Hi Phil! Thanks so much for watching. Yeah the price is around there. It can differ depending on time and place. We thought about building our own, but we wanted to get on the road quickly and did not have the space to work on it. Looking forward to see if you end up getting a sprinter. We love it.
It is just a rubber coaster that we cut out to protect that button. we also put silicone around the button as well. Water has leaked in over peoples rigs and caused electrical issues. So we got double protection
What a nice video, my friend! Amazing van life! Your free life style is adorable.. Enjoyed watching. Cheers from Russia, Faris , and welcome to my channel about bushcraft and survival! Kind regards, Yuriy!
I just came across your Channel tonight and I just subscribed you guys are a pretty cool couple it seems and no homo you seem like a handsome man you're very pretty girl 🤗and you guys have an awesome van 👍and it was very fun to watch😁 thank you so much for sharing I look forward to seeing your next video❤🚐

Great job on the tour and good to see a younger couple's use and experience with a Revel. Subscribed!👍🏻
Thanks Stephen! We love this rig and welcome to the community. So happy to have you :)
One of the best Revel tours I’ve seen on UA-cam 👏👏👏
Thank you Matt! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Found your channel bc I am obsessing over Revels. You guys are cool cats and a pleasure to watch. Happy to be a subscriber. Keep up the Revel stuff!
Awesome! Thanks Burke. We will be taking this beast all over and sprinkle in some more Revel Van centric stuff along the way! Glad to have you around :)
Helpful to have this walk-through of how you use it. Was wondering about clothing storage. Those felt-like containers are a great idea.

Great idea on limiting the tech information and simply telling us how you use it! Refreshing!
Thanks Jorge! Definitely a place for that, but not our style. Hope you found it helpful :)
Wow very small wardrobe! You don’t even have cabinets! 😮 makes sense for a small van. I love the set up and the color too! Thanks for sharing! 😁
Yes, definitely have to put a lot of thought into what we actually need compared to want haha. Also trying to stay in decently warm weather 40+ helps. Thanks for the feedback Tedi ❤️
One of the best vans I have ever seen.

Great job you too! This video really gives us an idea of how you are living in this beautiful vehicle named Tina!. Sorry about the poo cap😂
That darn poo cap! For those who care, we do have a new cap now and there wasn’t too much spillage. :)

That revel is really nice! The bed especially! I would make mine full time though because I wouldn’t need a big work space . And I’m single ☺️👍🏻
As a single person the bed will probably feel amazing! We are full time with 2 and the bed is the only thing that feels a little tight… well maybe the amount of food too 😂
Thanks for the tour! Question: when you lowered the bed there appeared to be a squirt of water (back left)... what was that??
Great video! Keep up the good work! Love the colour of the van.
Thanks Alexandru! We will! Thanks for the support!
Great video and nice tour, thanks.
Just got mine! Curious about what monitor you went with and how did you mount it? Curious if there is any low energy options.
Just subscribed. Glad to see you two on the road. Will explore more of your videos soon.
Awesome! Welcome to the family 😊
I love it! Miss you man!
Big Rich! Miss you brotha. Hope you are doing well.
A nice van and i love it. Hope you will have many amazing trips. I will sub and follow. From Vietnam
Thanks Hiêp! Love the support. Looking forward to seeing you around :)
That has to be one of the best vans I’ve seen. Just one thing missing you guys should have a pooch on board.
Thanks! It has been a topic of discussion for a long time lol :) Only thing is we would want to make sure we take care of it properly. We shall see
@@FarisandLisa definitely I have two Dobermans but I don’t think one would suit you. Guys. Maybe a Dacahaund.
We are both retired but would absolutely love a Mercedes sprinter.
Love them swing out bike rack. Can you get a configuration with a swing out storage box?
Hmm not sure I will have to look into that.
@farisandlisa how is Faris' extra monitor mounted? I didn't see a link to it in the description. Thanks!
You should make videos with some of your cousins seeing the van.
Btw it is Emmett

😂only things we got right in the description was “tiny” and “manual”
Is your brother an ilustrator who appeared on Corridor? You talk the same way
The jawline is on point!
😂might be the main reason lisa likes me
jaw line > personality
Where does the tv hook to on the van? Is there a ram mount somewhere?
Wow, nice set up and video showing us your personalization. Question, with that drawer taken, has the stovetop found a better home?
Thanks Stephen, we found an old laptop bag that is padded and the stovetop fits perfectly in the bottom pantry shelf. It takes up 2/3 of that shelf though.

Nice video. How is the Mercedes engine in power, reliable and any issue with the van and engine so far. And ps. How much mileage
Thanks! It is a 3.0L V6. Not racing it around but has gotten the job done so far. We are 8k miles in so far and had no issues. About 16mpg
One of the best
Oops. Forgot to ask: since you don't use the top drawer for your cooktop, where do you store it?
can you share how much to get something similar to your van?

Hi Burton, the black aluminum box is listed in the description. If you are referring to the bench seat we made that out of 80/20 aluminum!
AMAZING AMAZING AND AMAZING CHANNEL. NO 1
Nice van. Inspiring me to pick one up.
So many options out there! I think you will like our month in review video, it will show a little more of our likes and dislikes!
you guys have done very well. Congratulations!
What happens if you have a total loss will the insurance pay de conversion or the van only ??? Have you checked that ???
Was the bed rig expensive? What's it called?
It is called euro loft and we think the value is worth it!
Very cool
How long can you run the A/C on just battery power it’s hot?
A few hours before it’s starts to get low!
Tiny Kia? Seriously? That is FIAT PANDA! And the 4x4 version climbs 100x better than your 200k Sprinter (that is amazing btw)
🙀too late to edit now!
@@FarisandLisa didn't know that it cost 200k, dude.
@@0x001-x6z it doesn’t. It still expensive but not 200k call around. The price does keep appreciating, but 130k-140k is not hard to find.
How much is that van?
what do you two do for work if you don't mind me asking
We previously worked in automotive, but we resigned and we are starting our own travel company. Slowly but surely :)
My 2020 sprinter has been in the shop more than on the road 😰
Oh no! What has been wrong with it!?

Hi! Thanks for the love. We love watching other people’s channels. We will check it out :)
nice Revel.....dont forget..no more than 330lbs on top of the roof as per Mercedes. after that weight the van drives dangerously different.
Thanks for the reminder! I don’t think we are at that number and have not noticed any changes so far :)
So, is Tina's fuel delivery a Delphi Technologies pump?😀
Probably not for another 10 more years! 😂

You are a star Meghan. A freakin star! One of the origin members
You guys are the bees knees
Thanks Patrick! It was nice meeting you this weekend :)
Don’t ever climb up your stairs from behind the van ! Climb up from the side !
Thanks. I feel like that is a common myth. Heard from a few other revelers they haven’t had any issues with that.
Why?
Jayco Terrain / Entegra Launch is way better. Not released yet, but higher quality and better design. Killer paint job too. Be on the lookout!
Do you guys live in the van full time?
Hi Hector, yes we live in it full time.
@@FarisandLisa Wow that's so cool. Well enjoy life on the road and I love watching your UA-cam videos:). Maybe sometime you can do a you tube video about the buying process and the financeing the camper van:)
You’re a real one! Elbow deep in that hole is not for the faint hearted!
A real dumb and stubborn one 😂
how do you guys power the Ac?
The lithium batteries and a power inverter. It will only last a couple hours and runs the battery down fast. You can also plug into shore power.
Does it come with insulation?
Yes it is insulated throughout but I would say there is some room for improvements. People tend to add havelock wool in some areas.
best good^^
LOL, one day you will dump those dumb bells for more fresh water.
Hahaha we may trade them out for a case of beer.
How does the AC work when the bed is at the highest position?
It has a register in the front and back and can be controlled by phone
Good
It was a tiny manual fiat panda, not a Kia 😂
😂 oh well. we have had some kias get us through some stuff. All named Tina
