Why this build is
actually worth $68,000.

Most premium campervan builders in this price range still ship AGM batteries, propane heat, and 120V AC units that require shore power. We've been lithium-standard since 2021. Every Scout ships with DC-native systems that run off the house battery — no generator, no propane, no hookups required for normal use.

A van built with current technology costs more upfront. It also lasts the way you want it to. The systems we install today will still be current in 2030, and you won't be paying $20-40K to retrofit them in five years.
