When you're dreaming of the perfect outdoor adventure but want to travel in comfort while exploring the unknown, you need a reliable rig to support your wanderlust. Choosing an overland vehicle is not such a difficult task if you're a toughie and are willing to rough it out. But if you are a softie and crave the comforts of home during your adventures, you need something like this Mercedes Sprinter buildout from Exclusive Outfitters.
Designed for luxury overlanding, this rig is basically a compact rolling home ready to take you deep off the beaten path, allow you to push boundaries, and make incredible memories. With a rugged exterior, a well-equipped interior, and an abundance of storage solutions, this van conversion allows you to wander further away, where other camping vehicles can't take you, and explore the world in a whole new way.

Exclusive Outfitters is a California-based team with a combined 40+ year history in all facets of the auto industry. It specializes in custom Sprinter van buildouts and conversions for "exclusive” adventures. They turn standard panel vans into multi-use builds designed to easily transition from weekend getaway vehicles to everyday duty as a mobile office or gear-hauling vehicle. They offer a great variety of customization options for your camping, hiking, skiing, cycling, and earth-roaming adventures, and each build is a result of superior workmanship. This particular rig is the perfect example of what they are capable of.

It is based on a 2023 AWD Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 144" Wheelbase and is expertly outfitted for any adventure, from weekend getaways to weeks-long journeys. Moreover, it combines the maneuverability of a passenger car with the comforts of a motorhome and is specifically designed to withstand any weather conditions, with full insulation, air conditioning, and a diesel heater.

To turn the Sprinter into the ultimate camping rig, Exclusive Outfitters upgraded almost every relevant component of the base vehicle. Just by looking at it, you can notice it has plenty of extras, including a slew of aftermarket off-road components that ensure it can go as far afield as you want to go. Apart from a new CAtuned front bumper and all-terrain tires, the vehicle has been outfitted with Agile Off-road Suspension including 2" RIP with the works, custom-tuned front and rear Fox shocks, front coil assist kit, and more. With all these modifications and additions, you can rest assured that driving on old forest roads down, in the snow, or /in the rain will be a safe experience.

The rugged exterior of the van is also accessorized with a winch, running boards, an Aluminess roof rack, and two side mount ladders with surf hooks. Things get even more interesting at the back of the van, where you'll notice a tow hitch, an Aluminess rear bumper with a Backwoods storage utility box and tire carrier, a 1Up bike rack for two bikes, and more.

A pop-up tent and remote-controlled Dometic awning are also part of the package, while the practical interior comes fully stocked with a kitchenette, dining/lounging spots at the front and back, comfortable sleeping accommodations on a convertible dinette that turns into a two-person bed and a pop-top bed, as well as plenty of modular storage options.

Inside, this van boasts durable TPC coin flooring with L-Rail tie-downs, which allow for increased versatility and modularity compared to other camper conversions. In total, the van offers seating capacity for four people and can comfortably sleep up to five. There is no separation between the cab and the actual living space, and the driver and passenger seats come mounted on Mercedes-Benz factory-approved swivel bases. Coupled with the removable two-seat factory bench and a custom card table, they create a nice dining spot up front.

The kitchen block is designed with functionality in mind, with butcher block counters and plenty of storage in the form of cabinets and drawers, plus practical appliances such as an induction cooktop, a refrigerator, a small sink, and a CO2 detector.

Up until this point, the interior might sound like a typical van conversion, but what really makes this build stand out is the multi-use area at the rear. At first sight, the area is fitted with two custom benches that offer seating for six and a custom teak table that form a nice dinette. But there is much more to this configuration than meets the eye. When the night comes, the adjustable table fills the space between the two benches like a puzzle piece and creates a comfy double bed. Moreover, the two benches come fitted with custom lower storage bins that offer oodles of space for everything you want to take with you on your travels.

Actually, the designers wanted to make sure you don't feel pressured to leave anything behind, so they also equipped the van with six individual removable storage totes, some rear door storage pouches, and 12 custom soft storage bags.

The pop-top roof is also a great addition to this camper van, as it improves both practicality and comfort. It increases headroom during the day and offers a full-fledged separate bedroom upstairs during the night. What's more, it makes more room on the ground level for living and dining.

And the good news is this build is now for sale via Vanlife Trader. It costs $203,500, but it will surely appeal to those looking for a truly unique, multifunctional, and high-storage capacity camper van.
