For those looking for the “van life” experience, campers based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis are an alternative to consider. They offer great fuel economy, and they’re ideal for exploring the great outdoors in comfort and style.
Ohio-based Advanced RV (ARV) is a skilled builder known for turning the proven Sprinter van platform into a home away from home by adding innovative advances. Designed by ARV, Boxy Lady is what they call a B Box build – a class B RV with a “box” that serves as the living space.

It’s an all-season versatile camper that measures 24.5 ft (7.4 meters) in length custom-made for a client that chose to have the project refunded. The team has recently shared a video addressing the issue, saying that they stopped taking into account the weight of the build and kept adding what the customer desired.

That includes granite countertops, larger cabinets, a larger TV, articulating beds, and even a cappuccino machine. Right as you step inside, you’ll find the kitchen area, which has a generous pantry, plenty of drawers, a sink with a water purification system, an oven, and a microwave.

There’s also a bathroom, which has a shower and a medicine cabinet, and in the back of the RV, you’ll notice the twin beds. This motorhome also has off-grid capabilities, a 7.2kwh lithium battery system, and it can have diesel-fired on-demand heat as well.

The weight issue is an honest mistake on their part as ARV realized just before delivery that the nearly-completed Boxy Lady was not going to meet weight requirements. But the builder is ready to shave off some weight and turn this gorgeous mobile home into a lean lady. Once the ARV makes the necessary modifications, the camper van will be available for purchase.

Check out the clip down below to see what the team plans to take out or modify.
