The Ultimate Sprinter Camper Build: He Left Nothing Out!

Is the Ready Set Van Hudson the ultimate Sprinter layout for off-grid living? The Hudson model on the Sprinter 170 AWD chassis is widely considered the most capable and luxury-focused build for adventurers who refuse to compromise on space or technical specs.

Why This $200K+ Sprinter Is Better Than Your House
Welcome back to New Jersey's Outdoor Adventures! Today, I’m at Ready Set Van in Trenton, NJ, with Ben to tour a client’s "dream build" that truly has it all. If you are obsessed with RV life, high-end camper van builds, and detailed trailer tours, this Sprinter 170 AWD is going to blow your mind.

I Found My Dream Van: The Ultimate Hudson Tour
We start with the exterior, featuring a CA Tuned bumper, 10,000lb Warn winch, and a full Agile Overlander suspension system that makes this van "insanely capable" in the woods. One of the most innovative features is the Aluminess power lift system—a DeWalt-powered bike rack that solves the struggle of loading 70lb e-bikes.

This Sprinter Features A Secret 300lb Bed Step!
Inside, the luxury continues with a 6-foot walnut kitchen, Scheel-Mann seats, and a "silent" electronic locking system for all drawers that activates the moment you start the engine. From the king-size north-south bed to the 36-inch luxury shower with a Clesana C1 L toilet, this van feels more like a high-end apartment than a vehicle. With 1,000Ah of power and 40 gallons of water, it's the gold standard for full-time van life.

Key Takeaway:
The standout innovation in this build is the Electronic Auto-Locking Cabinet System. By using electromagnets tied to the vehicle's ignition, it eliminates the "clump" of traditional RV latches, allowing for a silent, residential feel while parked and total security while driving.
