Best DIY Minivan Camper I've seen/ sleeps 2, shower, kitchen, running water & more

[@normabarrigan6377]

U interrupt too much u are nice but u don’t let the people talk. I am surprised your utube grows. Just trying to help u to be aware.

[@gloriouslifeonwheels3621]

The reason I ask questions in a video is I only have a few minutes to get all the questions answered that I know most of my viewers want answered. Unless I ask these questions they will typically not be answered. I cannot please everyone so I go with what the majority of my viewers want. Based on the overwhelming positive comments received consistently I am satisfying them. As far as why my channel is growing and will continue to grow and succeed, I prayed about this channel and sought God's will and approval before even starting this channel. Anything in which God is in the mix will be a success, and I keep Him in the mix. Hopefully if you believe in God you now known why my channel grows. If you don't know the Lord maybe you should consider and you too might be able to have a successful channel or any other endeavor you attempt.

some ppl dont talk unless prompted, and a monologue is boring.. i didnt actually notice her talking, and i watched her other video right before. she doesnt waffle on.

[@ddrigmaiden]

I'm not hearing it. Just sounds like anyone else asking questions.

[@abyssalsoul6216]

I too have a shower in my 2006 Sienna van and I sit on a foldable stool for showers. I use a one gallon hand pump garden spray as it affords me better flow control based on how much pumps I make. I use Oatey brand vinyl shower pan liner from Home Depot to line the seat well area . I use a standard bath sink drain through an existing hole in the flooring of the van.The entire seat well is available to be used as a shower and when not being used as such then it is used as storage for things I carry. I carry a 21/2 bucket for a loo.

[@gloriouslifeonwheels3621]

Sounds like a great build and very functional.

[@peggyt423]

Pasquale, have you thought about writing how you built each part of your glorious van build. Since you aren't going to build for others. I'm sure people would be willing to buy the instructions. This is the best build that I have seen.

[@Tiny-Campers]

Yes, on my channel, I have the individual videos on how to build of the major components.

It is always fun to see a van that has so much thought put into the build with such fabulous results.

[@rosemariebredahl9519]

Suggestion for openings: cut no-run mosquito netting & affix via magnets. Note: to see dropped magnets at night & protect auto paint: put each magnet in a tiny zip-lock jewelry bags with a squirt of each neon paint & glow-in-the-dark paint.

[@gloriouslifeonwheels3621]

Love that idea. I have scratched up the paint in my van from magnets.

[@jessejules2092]

It's certainly a novelty. I can tell you from experience that practically speaking, its not easy working in such a small space when there are two of you. Something like this works ok when you're on your own. I recycled a bug sprayer pump and container for my truck camper build and it worked ok. This build is really clever. Good job.

[@kbeautician]

Perfect Pasquel. Finally, a kitchen sink/shower combo. For full waterproof coverage, why not simply put plastic up high in front water sprayer jug and the hose will fit through the opening when the sides meet? My ultimate build is combined shower sprayer and kitchen sink on same side.

I love your tours and how you basically have host break things down to layman's terms...always makes me giggle and I can relate!! Boy, I couldn't subscribe to his channel fast enough! I'm so glad you featured him and his van while I'm in the midst of DIY my van!! Thank you again for this amazing tour.

[@gloriouslifeonwheels3621]

I sometimes feel a tad bit reluctant asking folks to climb into things but a picture is so much easier to grasp than a verbal explanation sometimes. And, some of the folks I interview have such complex minds that as someone with zero technical skills I simply have to have them break it down.🤣🤣😍 Glad to hear the timing of this video may help you with ideas for your diy build.

[@NaeOnYT]

This is really neat! Very resourceful. And I love seeing the carbon monoxide detector. Safety first.

[@Love-Henry]

It's eye-opening how he could fit a shower into a minivan. Lots of thoughts went into the design of the floor plan.

[@Curious_Skeptic]

I like some of the ideas. I think it can go one step further and make it so you have a camper toilet in the 'shower' pan area. Plenty of height to sit on the toilet closed to take a shower. Reality is, toilet is for last resort. Guys can pee into a bottle and dispose discretely when convenient. Camping toilets be cleanout out once and a while as they don't get much use. I'm even looking at sliding plexiglass panels for shower/bath doors. LOL. I'm only 5'6" and although fat, it will give me plenty of incentive to lose weight. :) Oh, and a floor shower drain will mean, no grey water tank. Again, think 'discrete camping'. Backup by a storm drain, you are golden. (walmart parking lots always have storm drains far away from main parking)

[@elainelipscomb1476]

What a wonderful build

[@greentherapy]

I love your videos because they are so real. Real in the sense that you present real people living in America & with the challenges that come with being a US citizen. Your energy is boundless & the confidence you exude is awe inspiring. I’m always excited when I see a notification of your videos. I’m in metro Atlanta & working towards hitting the road. I’m scared but, the thing that gives me solace is that as a retired Veteran, I can always “boondock” don’t know if that’s the right word, at a military base. Thanks so much for all that you do.😘

[@gloriouslifeonwheels3621]

Thank you so much for your encouraging words Marie. That is indeed a great benefit you have being able to stay at military bases. I encourage you to heck out the Home On Wheels Alliance (HOWA) Facebook group as there is lots of great info on that site. I believe they also have a regular digital meetup. Also, if you ever make it out West definitely check.out Quartzsite Arizona in January for the RTR meetup and to meet other van lifers.
