    They tell you timeframes for delivery? I’m about to pickup a 2025 Revel, but would cancel for a Mode XO. Nice review, I’m convinced.

    Fantastic review, thank you! A couple of things I observed- you lose the front drivers seat from turning around and being useful in this XO setup. May not be a big deal to some, but some of the usefulness of a setup like this is turning both front seats around and having seating for 4 adults (or someplace for a dog/cat). The front seat/table seems cramped when used together (although I like the adjustments to pull out/recline). The power window is just another thing to give you problems in the middle of nowhere and seems unnecessary. Honestly, I was hoping Storyteller was going to add some type of pull-out toilet that pulls into the shower pan area and you could just utilize the shower curtain for a bathroom privacy option (IE, a better solution than the CAV slide-out toilet, perhaps with an exhaust fan). I can't believe STO hasn't developed a better front bumper, this bumper is solid steel and about 150lbs.. for a "beast", they should do something similar to a catuned with a winch and streamline the bumper to be lighter and better equipped for recovery. Also, improvement on insulation would be nice too, especially at this price point.. which gets me to my last point that $240,000 is not going to sit well with many given the competition (you can buy a 2025 revel with nearly the same power and put $20K into it and be close to this, and pocket a cool $50,000). 2 years ago you could get a STO beast for under $200K, they increased pricing due to market demand and a year wait for anyone ordering, and I'd say that demand and the ability for people to finance a van like this has significantly decreased but STO has not adjusted back (time will tell how this will do, of course). There are almost 50 STO Beasts for sale on RVTRADER, inventory seems to be sitting at this pricing. I love STO, love the brand, love the vans, hope this one is a success and fits it's target market (STO Fans kinda wanting a Revel but don't care about price). :). Also, love the fact that Talon built his channel on the Revel platform but won't even mention the name of that van LMAO.

    So now that you have the Tundra, you're still keeping the Tacoma as well, right? (or trading it in for the 4th gen when it comes out). What about keeping the Taco as your crawling/technical overlander, and building up the Tundra for more of a remote expedition vehicle? IE not geared so much towards technical terrains, but built up for really long-range adventuring far from home. Like Alaska and such

    I dig it. As a former Revel owner like you, this thing is a Revel killer. Going to take a big bite out of their market. I still prefer my Halo that can dry and be tucked away and have a more open layout feel. But this is still a sick van they built!

    We have always liked the STO, but really wanted the cassette toilet and enjoy the hard shower of our current 2019 Revel. Now, it looks like it is time to make that switch to STO Mode XO. This is perfect for our needs.

    Don't get me wrong-the van is nice and the quality is evident, but if I have to be honest, it feels like every other van out there in terms of layout. I love the halo shower and groove lounge and was hoping for an integrated toilet. The portable toilet that the vans come with is comical. To me, they had an opportunity to innovate but fell short. Also, they need a Ford Transit Option with all the bells and whistles. Just my initial thoughts.

    Thanks for the in depth systematic review. Nice to see how the new pieces and systems work. I noticed when you panned across the push button controls on the inside wall of the galley they removed the hot water recirculation button. Did they remove this feature? Or is the feature only available via the Mode Comm screen?

      I noticed it was missing as well. I am not sure what the reasoning is for sure but this feature might not be needed anymore like in the hilt.
