Drifter Vans The Scout: Full Wet Bath Camper Van
The Scout delivers a full wet bath and genuine off-grid power in a nimble Class B camper van,handcrafted one-of-a-kind, never repeated.
What Makes Drifter Vans The Scout Different
Drifter Vans The Scout is a full wet bath camper van built on either a Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter chassis, featuring an indoor shower, toilet, and complete plumbing integrated into the floor plan from the ground up. The electrical system includes a 420Ah lithium battery pack, 350W solar panels, and a 3,200W inverter, giving travelers a capable off-grid power foundation without relying on shore power.
Drifter Vans produces only twenty-four Scout builds per year. Each one is commissioned to a specific owner, assigned a build number, and never repeated, meaning no two interiors are identical.
The Scout suits travelers who want full bathroom functionality in a Class B camper van format, including those who camp in cold climates where the Aqua-Hot hydronic heating system, rated to perform up to 15,000 feet in elevation, provides consistent warmth. The swiveling passenger seat, adjustable table, and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry make it equally practical for extended work-from-the-road use.
