Meet Jade and Leia!

In an effort to showcase the layers of what we can do with the modular design, we are looking for product testers to take Leia and Jade on adventures. We’re looking for feedback, ad-on ideas, and to document your adventures through media content and reviews!

To cover our costs, we’re asking for $99/day and a per mile cost on longer trips ($0.99/mile when going past 100 miles)

You would sign a “tester contract”, covered by our insurance, so no additional cleaning or booking fees.

This is a good way to get into a rental for less and join us in improving the Collective!

What does Modular mean?

Cabinets are light and designed to come out! Extra plugs and anchor points mean you can move things around.

The battery system, galley, and benches are all designed to come out quickly with and with no tools.

Flex Space - We know how useful it is to flex your space, so pull those benches out when you are filling the back with plywood, or pull it all out when you are moving into your new house and don’t want to rent a Uhaul.

Add-ons and redesign - Your needs change as you grow. Modular makes it easy.

It’s never been so easy to add windows, rearrange your galley, or add a shower. We designed the Jade to be easy for us to build, which also makes it easy for you to build.

Protected Value - In the less likely event of a theft, a total loss accident, or an impounded vehicle, you will retain more value by having “loose products” then you will having those products screwed down. Make sure you discuss renter/homeowner insurance with your insurance agent (especially if you Vanlife full time!)
