2020 Mercedes Sprinter 4×4

This was my 2nd camper van and it took 2 years to build. I focused on making every detail the best it could be. I’m a well known van YouTuber and I documented the entire build on my channel https://www.youtube.com/sevenosavage.

Here is the youtube video of the fully completed van tour (I’m the guy in the video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzAsxYJ8c-A

I sold this van to an owner in Reno who has now commissioned me to re-sell it turns out he wont be able to use much it in the coming years. He added a matching RoamBuilt rear bumper and new tires, and drove it about 100 miles total.

This van is very comfortable for full time living or for extended trips (but simple enough to take for a last minute 1-nighter), it’s very capable off road for how luxurious it is, and it’s a true 4 season van for camping below 0 degrees. I built it for myself, so everything comes apart and is easy to work on with just a few hand tools.

I’m probably forgetting something, but you can probably answer any question you have by watching the build series on my YouTube channel “seven o savage”
