We Quit Van Life For This ... Storyteller Hilt Expedition Vehicle Tour

Where are people selling their campervans? There are a lot of people quitting vans so, maybe we can get better deals right?

When you become out if touch lol.

Just half $1 million and this could be yours

you need nets for your windows.. against insects..

Be careful of eating processed foods. I completely changed my diet due to health issues and I had people sending me articles about processed foods, etc. Most people don't know that big tobacco saw the writing on the wall so they took their huge stockpile of cash and bought food companies like Nabisco and Kraft among others. They took their scientists who are experts at making stuff addictive and tweaked all their products with unhealthy stuff and then bought stock in the pharmaceutical companies. Create the disease and then peddle the drugs to treat. Most people don't know that not only is high fructose corn syrup really bad for you in that it causes fatty liver, makes food more addictive but it's also full of mercury due to the way that it's processed. Most of the junk that they allow in our food in America is outlawed in Europe. It's criminal. Our poisons are slowly spreading across the world though. Obesity is becoming rampant in many European nations now as well.

THese things are LEGIT, nut 1/2 a million is STEEP!!!!

Not sure I understand the water/toilet situation.

You have a massive 450liter fresh water, and a 150 liter grey water tank (no idea where the remaining 300 liter is supposed to disappear to) for maximum off grid independence of probably over a week.

Contrast with the standard 17liter of a toilet cassette, which will last you about 3 days max...

What is the use of dragging along all that water if you have to go empty your toilet at the designated area every 3 days?

For that amount of money I would have expected an incinerating toilet, so that you could really be off grid for the time your water supply lasts.

way too much..over priced...

Just for North America.

How’s this rig on a 2500 chassis? I’ve been wondering if I should get a 2500 or 3500 for a lance truck camper just the 600-800 series

Not practical for Baja or parking anywhere that's out of sight. Practically none of the accesses on the outside are lockable. At least not enough to keep honest people honest...

😢😂t

I just about split a gut laughing when you were showing storage, opening drawers and all the sudden your arm turned into a big hairy man arm. You got some B-roll in there. Lol

Not sure why everyone is so upset about the price. If you can afford it, this sounds amazing (especially with kids).

Love how the bananas can charge also! Lol.

WOW... that is nice. But, is it really $500k!

For big family, next he may need a buss size... but is no harm had a non mobile home or land that no home, jut a warehouse or garage, they can came to that land and make as an outpost or a hub for repair, or extra place when you really need a place a survival in modern word in sustainable life like old time.

Great tour. The camper is pretty cool and looks well laid out. The Dodge is spectacular! What a great package!

Destroying the environment one day at a time. Must feel good.

You can literally buy a house and a really good Camper with that price.

That’s trust fund kind of money 🤷‍♂️

Trustafarians? How else are you paying $500k?

Oh my goodness people! The have nots really have so much to say don’t we. Good for you guys trying out an overlander style rig! Some people buy a house and stay in one place. You guys are buying memories and experience! Life is short. Go for it! Thanks for sharing your journey! Also, if your family helps you in life, well, thats amazing. If they put in the hard work and want their kids to have a better life then applaud that this is still possible. Either way, have fun!

Congratulations! I think this makes for a very interesting case study of doing what works for you! The whole adventure nature of being able to go - possibly to cross the borders, be in Canada or South America for a few months, changing the scenery, cost of living, etc.

What I'd love later would be a year update, and subsequent, cost comparisons of what this actually costs you vs a similar ~ $500K house, mortgage, etc. given where you might've been based. Many look at the cost of this rig and wonder about upfront vs a house that's amortised, but it's never so simple. Being able to work remote jobs, maintaining a different lifestyle, and the adventures for your little one... that's priceless! Our family's on a slightly different path, but share some similarities. I however wanted some land, to do some things that we wouldn't be able to do if we were a bit more nomadic.

Hopefully your travels are trouble free and memorable! =) Hello from Canada!

Still technically "vanlife" I feel. Maybe mobile resident aka nomad lifestyle

they didn't buy it, just showing it off... that's house money

Cringe

Could you do a video on the total cost of ownership for a rig like the Hilt? Insurance, maintenance, savings for tires and repairs, and monthly gas cost compared to mileage traveled. My wife and I are starting to devise a way to purchase something like the Hilt. If we can figure out how to pay for it, LOL.

Sister was charging bananas instead of apples

Buy a Iveco Daily 7.5 tons or a Fusu Canter or Unimog 4x4 or even better a small MAN or Mercedes Lorry, 10 times better quality and can actual run in the terrain, this is not suited for off road.
You can get a big 4x4 MAN TGM 18, tons, downgraded to 8.5 tons for 271.000$, with everything under the sun, and it will not break lkke this would be 4x4

That’s crazy for ANYONE to spend this much on a RV but doesn’t own a house. This is for someone who use it as a toy not spend their whole life savings AND live in 😂

Güle güle kullanın, tekerinize taş değmesin :)

How do they have so much money to throw away due to depreciation

and I'm sure the price is a beast

If you actually costed the materials used in this build you’d be depressed. By the time this video was shot, you’d be talking 30% depreciation on the vehicle and about 70% or higher on everything else (per item) Having said that, I’ll take two!! 😂

If T rump wins and does away with Social Security I will have to sell my house and buy a camper van to live in, so I am checking out different options. I would not be able to pull enough out of selling my house to buy this rig but still looking.

Amazing! Congratulations <3 how can I get one? I am in Mexico

Sure is beautiful and comfy looking. How did you two youngsters with a baby get together $500,000 for an RV? I hope you have gigantic silver spoons, and that this was "no big deal" for you... RV's are not a good financial investment.

I must have missed it but what exactly is this rig??? Too me, inside and out, it looks exactly like the Earth Roamer LXi and there average price is around $450,000. Is yours an LXi?????? I have already made up my mind on the Earth Roamer SX because I can then get the 2 in one washer dryer. I also plan on having a small wood stove with complete glass windows around it so the glow will work around the inside. Thanks for the vid!!

500k 😂!? Ok… it’s a pub video like other tens of them

Wyatt is awesome 😎

It was waiting for you! To the hilt 🎉

Ughhh

I saw similar Story Teller RV in Acadia National Park during first week of October 2024.

Any off road vehicle, correction, any vehicle built by Ford, GM, and Stellantis, can only be a dud… At any price, it is a dud, a useless piece of mediocre engineering that will fail at the worst time.

That think is SO top heavy. It just tosses you around like crazy!

Renegade Veracruz off grid sold by IWS has a lot of the same features inside and out for a more realistic price point ! And no cassette toilet ! But this is an extremely nice rig !
