Designed by Alabama-based Storyteller Overland We?re always on the lookout for new camper vans, and the latest to catch our eye is the Mode 4x4 from Alabama-based Storyteller Overland. Over the past year we?ve seen a range of new camper vans custom built for biking, skiing, or even snowmobiling adventures. Love campers and trailers" Come join our community group.
Unlike custom conversion vans, however, Storyteller Overland is offering a single product that aims to compete with the Winnebago Revel and Airstream Class Bs. And like these larger companies, the Mode 4x4 is offered through a nationwide network of dealers.

Inside, a kitchen block sits inside the sliding door and boasts an electric cooktop, a refrigerator, and a sink. Across from the cooking area sits a dual-seat bench that can work in a seated position for eating before also laying flat for use as a bed. Swivel cab seats and an adjustable table round out the eating area up front, while a rear flip-away bed takes advantage of flared sides in order to sleep widthwise.
