Getting its start in 2017, ModVans established itself in California,
where it continues to make a name for itself.
It first started after the owners took out their twenty-six-foot Class C RV for weekend
trips to the various national forest sites in the state but found they wanted more.
One of their recent developments is the CV1X Camper Van, which we’ll be covering in this video.
So what makes the CV1X Camper Van special?
This camper van is a well-rounded base of operations for any camp-goer.
Still, the most notable feature is the over one thousand
amp-hour battery coupled with the three thousand watts pure sine wave inverter.
This allows you to bunker down and make home in your wilderness journey for days and
possibly weeks at a time, especially if you opt for the double-sized battery option.
With that sort of power, you needn’t worry about your appliances going caput.
The CV1X has plenty of appliances, including; a refrigerator,
electrical outlets, a forced-air furnace, floor heating, induction cooktop, and air conditioning.
And a lot of you would be happy to hear that the roof pops up,
offering nearly seven feet of standing height in the lower part while holding a double bed up top.
Taking a peek back down in the living area, we see the kitchen packed with an induction cooktop,
deep sink, twenty-two and a half-gallon fridge, and an option for a microwave.
The two cabinets the kitchen is built off of double as a housing area for
the second bed and puts the number of people it can sleep up to four adults.
And if you need space for some of your gear or other things,
you can even completely remove those cabinets.
This brings us to the next great thing about the CV1X; the modularity of everything.
It offers several seating layouts with up to seven seats available,
which can be swapped in and out as you see fit. If you decide to pay for all the extra seating.
To top it all off, this camper includes a toilet
that is easily accessible from both inside and outside the van.
If you want a CV1X Camper Van for yourself, you’re looking at around one hundred and sixty-five
thousand dollars. But that price is flexible depending on what you add or remove from the van.
As always, thank you for watching,. We hope you enjoyed the video.
Head down to the comments and let us know your thoughts on the CV1X.
Your feedback is always appreciated.
And stick around for the honorable mentions right after this.
Finally, coming in our number one slot, we have a company that believes life is
meant to be filled with adventure, and adventure always needs a companion.
Colorado Camper Vans was founded in 2009,
and ever since, they want to accompany you with a camper van that fits your needs.
They offer the Base Camp experience, which is a total conversion of a list of applicable vans.
It's an excellent option for those looking to upstart their traveling camper but don't need
or can't afford a fully outfitted motorhome.
They finish the interior floor to ceiling with insulation,
sound dampening, and a variety of flooring choices and LED lighting.
Solar panels, electrical wiring, and an inverter charger are also installed in the process.
If you need a bit more pizzazz thrown in, you can also purchase several other features.
One of those options is a pop-top which Colorado Camper Vans also specialize in.
They offer the largest beds available, most being 48" x 80".
The pop-top is finished with deluxe liner material,
and their 3" foam bed pads are covered with soft, durable fabric.
The dual lift system is the most robust in the industry, and it is operated with remote control.
You have a series of addons to choose from when installing your pop-top as
well. The most popular options include four-season insulation, a remote-controlled multi-speed fan,
an exterior ladder, and a custom roof rack.
If you're someone who fancies themselves handy,
then you may be interested in the pop-top DIY kits.
Ultimately, that's who this option is for. Colorado Camper Vans offers great service here,
especially for those who want to be more involved in the process.
Whether you just want an operational base camp camper van with room for growth,
or you appreciate the space rather than the convenience, this is a great place to start!
So, what do you think? Is this the sort of thing to pique your interest, or is one of the previous,
fully-equipped models more your speed? Let us know in the comments. We'd love to hear your feedback!
For over 35 years, Pleasure-Way has worked under
the old-fashioned work ethic they established since its founding.
Every motorhome is hand-crafted, and the pride put into the work is apparent.
The 2021.5 Tofino is only one of the products they offer,
but it's one of our favorites. It incorporates a minimalist design with cutting-edge technology.
The Ram ProMaster 1500 Van chassis is available in three colors.
There is solid maple cabinetry, cloth upholstery, and laminate countertops.
If you pop the manual top, a 49" x 72" overhead bunk is revealed,
creating a second sleeping space for guests and opening up the living area and galley.
Two 100Ah lithium coach batteries make up the power source for all the electronics,
including the touchscreen control panel with remote and real-time amperage meter.
Your storage needs will be met with over 70 cubic feet of rear cargo space for anything,
including luggage, bikes, camping gear, etc.
It pairs well with the 2,000-pound occupant and cargo carrying capacity.
The sofa is equipped with two lap belts and
quickly transitions into a 54" x 72" queen-sized bed.
The galley is located along the driver's side,
and it embraces that minimalist design and services what you need with no fluff.
An induction stove for cooking, a stainless steel sink for cleaning, a refrigerator for storing your
foodstuffs, and a laminate countertop to operate in the kitchen. Simple and easy to use and clean!
Options are available for a 100 or 200 Watt solar package
if you want a bit more clean energy on your travels.
Two other campers from Thor Motor Coach, the 2022 Rize, and Scope,
are a pair of class B Vans built on the timeless RAM ProMaster 1500XT chassis.
Despite their differing names, these camper vans are basically the same package.
Like the Sanctuary, both the Rize and Scope can be optioned out with the same 18T or 18M floorplans.
While the 18T layout does away with the bathroom, it has enough space for a fully-equipped kitchen
that comes with a two-burner gas cooktop, microwave, and 12-volt electric refrigerator.
On the other side, the 18M layout trades kitchen space
for a wet bathroom with an RV shower-toilet combo.
The main attraction would have to be the pop-top, which can easily sleep, two people. While it's
a very efficient way to add sleeping space, it also doubles as a storage space when not in use.
Roof-mounted 190W solar panels charge the dual AGM batteries via a 1000-watt inverter,
but when the sunlight's patchy, a 30-amp detachable shoreline power cord will do the trick.
Created by Alabama-based manufacturer Storyteller Overland,
the Beast Mode 4x4 is about as tough as they come.
Built on the ever-reliable Ford Transit All-Wheel-Drive, and packed full of robust,
off-grid inclusion, the Beast Mode is a boon dockers paradise.
Onboard you'll find a 12-kWh Volta power system with 90 watts of solar expandable up to 600W,
a 3200W inverter, 21 gallons fresh
and 24-gallon gray water tanks, and a heavy-duty shore power inlet.
Inside, the Beast mode sleeps up to three and features a galley with a portable induction
cooktop, stainless steel sink, and microwave, as well as a combination fridge/freezer.
When folded up against the sides, the bed creates a rear garage area
suitable for storing bikes and other gear.
You'll have to make do with a cassette toilet and outdoor shower,
but at least the onboard water heaters will keep you warm.
There are a few details about the Beast Mode LT 4XB that Storyteller Overland
is keeping under wraps. For that, you'll have to wait for their expo in September.
