The most expensive RV we've ever owned but it's our home. A completely custom RV semi-trailer that we designed and asked SpaceCraftmfg.com to build took 7 months. On our Big Rig's 4th birthday, we decided to share it with the community. We hope it's been worth the wait and you enjoy the full inside tour of our home. We designed this 5th wheel RV but Spacecraft Manufacturing built it.
Welcome. How big are we?
1 minute mark:
Welcome and begin the tour of our home. It's a completely custom RV built on a semi-trailer chassis.
5 minute mark:
A secret room in an RV? It's small but extremely hidden, in plain sight. Custom power recliners make TV viewing with surround sound a pure joy...when we get time from retirement fun! The solution for the center channel speaker is so cool as we incorporate it into a "secret drawer". The Harry Potter room as we call it.
8 minute mark:
We show you the kitchen fit for a chef along with plenty of storage. Lots of cabinets with pull out drawers, adjustable shelves, double sink, granite counter tops and heated tile floors. An appliance garage and slide out tray for the toaster oven make this a super unique home.
14:15 minute mark:
We show the incredible expanding table which seats two...no wait...four adults...and large enough to use for games and working on projects. Chairs for four to sit at the table, where do we store all this stuff? Plenty of storage available. A commercial grade soda machine along with Sondra sneaking a sip of Diet Coke. Also, meet the Beast, the chiller for the carbonated water.
17:15 minute mark:
The foyer or entranceway is important and has our shoe cubby. We enjoy the Hawaiian custom of removing one's shoes, but where to store them? We have a cool solution. And a great place to store and charge our Eufy (robot vacuum). A Dyson vacuum is in the closet as it charges on the wall. We also expose our cache of Whataburger foam cups. No judging! LOL. We explain our Firefly system and how we have a backup to insure we always have lights. This feels very residential.
22:30 minute mark:
We start to head into the bedroom and discover a unique barn door which doubles as an art display. A residential size queen bed with room to stand in the slide out and room on each side of the bed along with nightstand tables for each of us. Plenty of storage in the vanity and cabinets to house ALL of our t-shirts. No judging! LOL.
26:30 minute mark:
We head into the bathroom and discover the full size shower with over 7 feet of head room! Wow! That's unheard of in an RV...but this is a semi-trailer RV so there are more special items to be found. A custom one of a kind closet with a Splendide washer/dryer and a cool ironing board area sets this bathroom apart from any other. A hidden drying rack that pulls out for delicate clothing!
RV Living at it's best.

We use the TSD card for diesel fuel and save a bundle each time we fill up our Big Rig. We also use it to fill up our Onan generator.
The big blue boards (XL version) we use sometimes to get us "un-stuck" is from:
Gotreads.com
Our extreme completely custom 5th wheel is built on a semi-trailer chassis with air suspension and air brakes. Completely loaded it weighs 42,000 lbs rolling down the highway. And we do roll down the highway nearly every week. You see, we believe that if your home has wheels they should be used.
Vehicles:
2016 Volvo VNL780 "Voyager"
2016 Smart fortwo "Pathfinder"
2019 SpaceCraft Custom built semi-trailer 5th wheel "Orion"
2023 Thor Magnitude XG32 Class C "Curiosity"
2017 Jeep Wrangler Sahara "Artemis"
Power system:
3250 watts of solar with Panasonic panels
30.1 KWH of Lithium batteries
2- 4K watt Magnum Inverters deliver power as if we are on shore power
2- 4K watt 240v Cotek Inverters deliver additional power for our LG Mini split HVAC and stove
Coachnet is our roadside assistance company we use but hopefully we don't use them too often. LOL
We are not sponsored by Whataburger but I do enjoy them anytime I can get my hands on one. They used to be just out of Texas but they have expanded.

I design custom sticks and bricks homes, "McMansions", for a living these past 30+ years and have to say the tremendous amount of thought and planning that went into designing your Spacecraft RV is nothing short of phenomenal. No space is wasted, unlike many of the homes I work on which have TONS of wasted space. I do not own an RV (yet), but have been researching RV manufacturers for years and Spacecraft came up in my radar quite some time ago, mostly because of their unique ability to customize their builds, as you have obviously done. I stand to inherit a modest (by today's wealth standards) sum at an unknown future date that will eventually fund my RV dreams. I have no idea how much, exactly, I stand to inherit, and so am keeping my future RV plans very modest, which rather quickly eliminated Spacecraft from my shortlist...among other customizable RV manufacturers. However, in my "ultimate dream" scenario, I'd have a set up much like yours, only difference being I'd garage a sassy little sports car (current choice a Miata) on the rear bed of my HDT rather than a SmartCar. Anyway, great walk-thru, fantastic rig.

Your "RV" is a comfortable, welcoming home that actually feels like a real home, not just a box on wheels. What you've done with it is amazing, graceful and tasteful. I live in a fairly nice apartment, but I'm jealous of your kitchen...it has about twice the counter space of my kitchen. What really makes it a great, livable place is the two of you; your talent, your wonderfully innovative ideas, your impeccable taste, and your hard work. Keep up the good work!

To me, the spice racks are the only way to go. Easy to see what and where they are instead of trying to find what you need in an upper cabinet. Love the soda machine. Never saw that feature before. The broom closet is a must have. WOW! The clothes drying rack is a great idea and should be in every camper. OMG, an ironing board too. You've thought of everything. That is a complete laundry center. I am amazed at how much you squeezed in the camper, yet it is so spacious. A well thought out and resourced planned home.

The Florida Keys to Alaska to California to Texas we've covered some territory. There are advantages to a Super C. That's why we purchased our Class C on a F550 chassis. There are areas we are not legal to drive in our Big Rig. Keep in touch. We have an email on the channel.

You both are such a sweet couple. My folks RV’d for decades and I would go with them on numerous trips. Dad tried to teach me so much on the workings of the motor home but I don’t retain a lot if I don’t put what I learned to practice. We were on the South Padre, TX beach one trip. My Dad was bored out of his mind and said, ‘do you want to go to FL?’ I was all in for that. We have very dear friends there. I said ‘Absolutely!’ Dad said, ‘great, go tell your Mother.’ She and I were the beach lovers! She was so disappointed but said ok. We had stayed the maximum beach camping so we were having to move anyway. You both remind me so much of them. Happy travels and be safe.

In the northeast there are potholes that could swallow the smart car. The Trans Canada Highway is fine for the most part but some of the interesting side roads can make your teeth rattle. Also some or the hidden gems for camping and sightseeing would be a little snug for Orion. I will pay more attention on future visits with you in mind.

Connie, it was a very shiny nickel for sure. It's much less than a comparable Prevost or Foretravel. Our full rig is less than $650K, of course, that was 4+ years ago and the replacement costs would be significantly more. Glad you're along on the journey. Thanks for the comment. 😁

The quality is there to see against normal 5th wheelers, with being a semi trailer without the car could you use a normal commercial hitch or do spacecraft insist on rv hitchs . |Its nice to see a normal length trailer for once most adverts of spacecraft promote 57ft which is just not practicul for everyday use on the move, The question of the day would you buy another spacecraft ? In the UK we have max trailer laws of 45ft although 40ft is more usable in europe and we have cabovers to keep the max length down to 68ft so as the tractors are a lot shorter than the USA we can get in tighter places also at a pinch why buy a car , just use the tractor unit. With all this quality of spacecraft why purchase Newall s etc at over two million when a new spacecraft plus a new volvo is a third of the price or less.

The quality is there for sure. We'd do it again...I'm just not sure SpaceCraft would be too excited about the prospect of us building again. LOL. I think we drove them crazy with all the details. Cabover trucks are very interesting and super maneuverable. We looked at them but very few in the USA. Yes, the 57 footers are too long for us. This is a very livable and maneuverable length for us and we would not want to be any longer. Thanks for the comment and appreciate you watching the channel. 😊

The concern with the longer trailers is a longer KPRA which widens the turning radius or if the rear axles are pulled in like so many RV trailers are, then you have a huge tail swing! I'm glad we managed to get everything into our 46'. 😊 thanks for the comment and watching the Channel. 😊
