Luxury on Wheels: Building Class B RV from Ground Up Midwest Automotive Designs

[yangchan]

Hi Hank this is a long one but thanks to you and him I have a better idea of Midwest automotive process for making a RV and I have a suggestion for the van with individual seats and the r&d is right there can they design a seat like the airline seat with a folding table incorporated to the seat and I am looking forward to the transit based RV from them ❤😊

[freddyb]

Enjoyed the video from start to finish. Thanks Look's like i am a Midwest Fan Boy Now!!! Their Quality Control Looked on Point!!

[boxster]

Great video with tremendous insights into the Sprinter van market and Midwest Automotive Design. Well worth watching.

[Vamanaswastika]

Hank did a great job. Well, done, my friend. What a great factory.

[shekharmoona]

They have solid Marine grade composites for use today. They could have went that route.

[FriscoPisco]

Thanks for the Video, Always impressed with Midwest Designs " Quality Products ", Did not know J.D. Vance had a second job, lol

[John-vems]

Would love to see Midwest do something on the Transit chassis to hide or conceal the water hookups and various wetbay connections in a fashion similar to the Mercedes.

Nice video, Hank. My 2024 Ford Patriot has the 10-way power seats with heat and massage. A real game changer on a long drive. When I first saw it had power seats that didn’t turn, I was a bit put off at first, but I have a bad back and not only can you make more adjustments with the power seats, but I frequently make small changes when driving to make it more comfortable. Mine also came with the built-in Starlink but I don’t have the cellular connection he was talking about for the Firefly. I need to see if I can add that as I travel with my dog and would like something better than the Waggle.

[shekharmoona]

Is there a cost savings to the end user on the these specific chassis?

[shekharmoona]

I wish they would consider the Toyota Coaster in America. That would be the most amazing chassis.

[shekharmoona]

Jim needs an entire interview dedicated to him.

[David-pkbn]

one reason why I don’t want a generator is it lowers the ground clearance. With the lithium batteries underneath will it be the same ground clearance as if there was a generator? And how are the batteries protected? Great video thanks Hank

[shekharmoona]

What does Jim Brown think of the Toyota Coaster as a chassis?

[shekharmoona]

How much is a macerator pump, labor and installation time?

[ricluv]

What’s the difference between the patriot and the passage?

[shekharmoona]

Obviously they are restricted on building at a higher volume/per day.

[shekharmoona]

So he said bo macerator in a van equals a poor persons van. Did I get that right?

[shekharmoona]

They have a lot of women working here. He's right everyone should be wearing PPE and breathing PPE is definitely needed.

[shekharmoona]

That pattern on the concept vans seats are bothering me. They look like a certain part of the female anatomy. I get it from a artistic view. Many things look like that.

[bassmonk]

With all that Benz luxury why can't they have a rear view digital mirror like the dodge ram...Midwest should get modernized and create a more youthful Class B between an Adventure and luxury van or else these vans are going to sit on the
