$7k Budget Ambulance Tiny House W/ Clever Murphy Bed Design

[@eugeneplakosh8423]

Young man you have hit the nail right on the head. NEVER let anyone tell you you can't. It's plain to see that you really believe in yourself, you'll go a long way with that attitude. I can't wait to see your journey, an finally the finished product. Most of all have fun, life is too short to worry about things too much I envy you two. We did our 3 builds when we were young.The final one was a fire rescue van, What a blast we had on the road. BON VOYAGE brother.

AMEN AGREED 👍🏼

eugene..... What a lovely thing to say.... And I do agree with you, he is very talented. Cheers!

[@tracym2164]

I appreciate the simplicity of your build. I am currently searching for an ambulance to do the same. 4 X 4's are hard to come by in Canada despite our long, often harsh winters. You have proven that you don't require tons of money and expensive equipment to have a comfortable, functional mobile living space. Thank you for sharing your build.

RIP Dritzz, enjoyed the video and also offer my condolences too.

I am told that if you contact the original manufacturer they will (probably sell you) provide wiring diagrams. Assuming they are still in business. Good luck, I hope you find them.

Have you considered switching the library over to where you want the refrigerator to go ' and put the refrigerator where the library is? It is also possible that you can get a chest refrigerator that pulls out when you want yto use it. They aren't as tall as a stand up refrigerator

Awesome work, man. Ignore the negative comments. They’re jealous and have no lives, else they wouldn’t be trolling KZbin to trash people who are positive and productive.

[@douglasharley2440]

that's a foolish perspective, not all negative comments are alike. some negative comments are going to be constructive criticism, offered by experienced people, with hard-won wisdom that is completely germane...not just hating on dude. it's very cool that he did something cool, but imo he's gonna end up having to put a lot of time, and energy, and money into fixing issues that would have been better avoided by making more thought-out decisions early.

[@caguilar51505]

I love this! I am also wanting an ambulance bc it needs minimal work to convert since I am NOT handy. I love the murphy bed. Good job

[@samsonite8400]

Great awesome look of the interior. The most important thing is that it looks like a regular home when you come in. Amazing job on the kitchen build and wood interior. Also the fact that you're an ambulance van. No one will ever try to rob you. They'll think you're a governtment car. Very smart. You can park at any public parking lot as long as you want or just near a hospital and even security wouldn't bother you.

[@lindamartin2045]

Lovely little home with a library.❤️☺️. Sitka spruce is a beautiful wood. Looks livable and four wheel drive. You done good!

[@janetfolkerts5827]

This has all the comforts of home..the gas mileage sucks, but no doubt you will solve that challenge. Here in lower 48 having the 'ambulance' look would create problems I'm sure, so are you planning to paint the outside? Stay safe, and THANK YOU for sharing your home with us.

Great build. Looks so cozy and comfy. Cedar is a cutie! I hope you ignore the rude comments. Some folks seem to hate for no reason. Cedars a bigger dog and it might be more comfy for him to have raised bowls. I did that for my boy on my vets reco. Just a thought. Where are the pink and green storage units from? Happy and safe journeys to you guys! 😊

[@MauiKeiki22]

Highly agree. My shelties always used raised dishes. Good for digestion.

I was in the middle of building a shuttle bus out. Total victron solar was installed, maxxair fans, induction cook top, cold environment mini split ac, and heat pump.. A really big tree fell on it, while I was sleeping with doggo. I'm picking up a 2005 ambulance in a few days, that my bus engine will fit right into. I can't wait! I don't need all the space in a 25'shuttle bus anyway.

I love watching these videos, living vicariously through the nomads. And I've seen some beautiful builds. But if I were to sell my sticks and bricks down the road, I would want a simple van/bus build. Without the bells and whistles. So I agree. You don't need $100k to live on the road. Great job on the build. I'd have to have a fridge though. I'm a cheese and yogurt girl and those don't fare too well without one. (;

I want to that you for the video. Almost all other conversions is a complete gut with a rebuild. It looks like you basically kept ambulance the way they come. I don't understand why others would rip out and rebuild you prooven you have everything needed. one thing for sure if it was mine is to not use back doors and mount mini split back there. There is one you tube video that is a regular RV he runs one full time. just don't hang outside unit in front to where it catches a lot of air while driving. hang on back so wind doesn't affect it. Don't need two entry doors. If you haven't got your fridge yet consider chest type. I hear good things about them. love your future shower idea. Seen that on another video. Any way thanks for video and keeping conversion simple.
