OVERVIEW

SOLD: Introducing Mothership 5 — the crown jewel of expedition vehicles. Built on a brand-new 2023 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 170 Extended Dually AWD chassis in metallic black, this van represents the peak of engineering, luxury, and off-grid self-sufficiency. It comes with a 5-year / 60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper extended warranty, making it ready for the long haul.

This build is the personal dream rig of Shaiden Valentine, founder of Mothership Vehicles, and took two years to complete. No expense was spared. No shortcut taken. Every inch of this van was designed and built by expert hands in San Diego, California, using aerospace-grade materials, precision CNC components, and cutting-edge technology.

This is not just a van — it’s a mobile command center. Built to thrive in the wild, entertain in luxury, and live in full autonomy. Ready for the apocalypse, or just the ultimate weekend.
