Van·Nois·Seur Podcast Episode 20 Nick Schmidt Of Sunshine State RV'S

Feb 21, 2026 • 66 mins

Hank Strange and Nick Schmidt explore the 2025 market landscape for class B vans, touching on the impact of the ProMaster recall and audience preferences in van features. They discuss the Noovo Next and Noovo Plus models and the appeal of the double lithium battery option for Pixel 1.8 along with excitement for the Tampa show and future RV plans.

Key Points

  • The availability of van chassis, particularly Ford Transits, is a significant issue impacting the production and delivery of Class B vans.
  • The choice between generator, hybrid, or lithium power systems in camper vans depends on usage patterns, with lithium being ideal for extensive boondocking despite its higher cost.
  • Sunshine State RV offers unique post-purchase benefits like free flatbed shipping anywhere in the country and one year of free roadside assistance, including mobile mechanic services.
