MSL “Flex Space” for the Ember Touring Edition 24MSL
The Multi-Storage Locker (MSL) “flex space” area in the Ember 24MSL is a groundbreaking feature that sets this RV apart in the realm of adaptability and innovation.
As the name suggests, the MSL is a versatile area designed to offer a multitude of configurations to suit various needs and preferences. This unique space is the heart of the 24MSL’s versatility, embodying the essence of what modern RVers seek: flexibility and customization.
Central to the MSL Flex Space is the innovative Ember Trek system, a super-sturdy and versatile mounting system that supports various configurations and setups.
With the Ember Trek System, the possibilities are nearly limitless.
Imagine being able to configure your RV as a bunkhouse for family trips, then effortlessly transitioning it into a spacious cargo hold for your outdoor adventures, or setting up a serene and organized office space for remote work.
