Not sure if this has been posted yet, but just came across this video of the Sprinter Van Foretravel.

My wife and I looked in two of them at FOT a week ago. Did not like either one of them. Bad floor plan for 2 people, not really a camping van. More of a touring van for 4 people total.
I'd like to see the IC37 when it is complete.
Thanks for posting. Hadn't seen it.
Looked at one myself and it is a touring van not a motorhome and there are cheaper and better options from pleasureway or roadtrek out there. I wished FT made what I have now. They are missing the boat. At our last mid Atlantic rally 2 of the 7 coaches were under 30 foot but full class c units based on a 26 foot class c
I toured the black one last fall with Cory Rucker, before the second one was completed, I was at Camp Foretravel in my new Winnebago Era which Cory was eager to examine and we discussed at length the features of both units. My conclusions were identical to those of AC 7880. In addition it was too glitzy. The second one featured in this video is even worse. I am not sorry they gave up on this idea. I would love to have a Foretravel on the Sprinter chassis but something with an interior more like the traditional Foretravels.
A Mercedes Sprinter van is never going to be anything more than a touring van and if all the RV stuff is crammed in, a poor one at that. Leave a few things out so you can at least walk past each other and then it could work. The van is just too narrow for anything else. Change that to a MBZ class C with a push out or two and then it becomes an excellent compact camper. I purchased a new Bigfoot class C for a friend and though it was an excellent use of space and perfect for a couple. The Foretravel Sprinter in the video above gives me a claustrophobic feeling just watching it.
