[@serenityjewel]

Her dad built her a house. I hope she knows how blessed she is.

[@connie9492]

What a GREAT DAD!

[@carollazarr3004]

For it's size it is amazing how much space & storage in this beautiful interior. Blessed.

[@PulpParadise]

Wow, this is absolutely stunning! Everything Shannon needs, completely streamlined, clean, and efficient. Her dad did a marvelous job. Thank you Bob & Shannon for sharing this beautiful rig!

[@fdm2155]

Wow, her dad could start a side gig outfitting vans and selling them on. What's beautiful smart design.

[@abee3515]

I think he just did that for his girl.

[@davisholman8149]

@@abee3515. Yep - bet he wants a break from van building. That was a bunch of work.😵‍💫

[@eliaswedway658]

@@abee3515 I totally agree! You can tell her father and her have a close relationship. It made me remember when my Dad helped me refurbish a fixer up. Great memories!

[@summerday2791]

Dads are AWESOME, and there for you no matter what age you are. Wonderful dad.

[@Steve-318]

And he works for beer, good deal.

[@shav0017]

I'm very grateful!

[@lori-annefay4138]

Yeh, in your dream world. Half of America is fatherless.

[@BlissfulDee]

Some dads totally suck. She's very lucky.

[@randyp9491]

my very same thought and love the entire van build

[@samuelvera9449]

Wow, the father is a master in carpentry.

[@MikeS-7]

She keeps it neat and clean. To her dad, AMAZING JOB! Blown away by the quality of his work.

[@Aspire-23]

You never let us down with meeting great people and hearing their stories. Nice lady thank you for serving our country also.

[@Iagle888]

Forget the van. This was a beautiful father daughter story. Without question, he loves his daughter. I'm tearing up.😢

[@stanbyme7874]

I wish I had a Dad. This is amazing. But mostly, he’s raised a great daughter & I’m really jealous 🥰

[@campgoerOne]

Me too!! 😊

[@leanbean8376]

B careful what U wish for, U just may get one!😜...

[@Kat-I-am3333]

I wish I did too, I never met my dad

[@kmann1430]

So sorry 🙏

[@virginiasummer2619]

Me too. Mine died really young. My husband was a terrific dad to our kids.

[@mannymotta2174]

This was my favorite episode so far. She really loves her dad. I’m 57 and my dad is 78. We are always helping each other with projects.

[@genespell4340]

Her dad made her home on wheels a thing of beauty.

[@phyllo2694]

This is one of the best builds that I have seen in a while. Love everything that she and her Dad accomplished.

[@k-mac5511]

Totally agree!!

[@rebeccamiller8434]

Dad did a fantastic job! Nothing compares to the love of a parent!

[@maxhappyfeet6047]

so true, you can see how much they love each other in every detail of the van that she points out

[@k-mac5511]

Amen! I’m so grateful for my parents and the love we share.

[@TwoTrees777]

fellow Minnesotan here! Thank you for your service, Shannon! Beautifull rig.

[@einzgeisha]

I love this family effort! Shannon's Mom helped look for pieces, the Dad helped build, Shannon lives the dream!

[@jessiehead6525]

Whoa - that is one gorgeous van & build. After seeing a ton of these tours I’m beginning to think that no amount of money compares to having a Dad who 1) knows how to build, and 2) loves you enough to create such a sweet ride. Lucky gal!

[@borandell9915]

I'm about your dad's age. Trust me, you were letting him fulfill one of his dreams too. Pretty cool dad you have there.

[@DavidHuffTexas]

This is one of the cleanest, nicest home-built van interiors I've ever seen. I'd 100% take something just like it!

[@davisholman8149]

Love that she is former military - we have the best people in our military - smart, can-do people.🇺🇸

[@robbiewright9573]

Shannon has some great ideas. The in home dog care is brilliant! Love her fiberglass rig. Peace and positivity to all 🎉❤ Shannon's father did a absolutely beautiful job in the van build. Wow!!!

[@grahammonk8013]

@robbiewright9573 Some friends have been doing something similar for 17 years. They live in Vancouver during Summer, in Winter they do house sitting in Calgary.

[@airbrushken5339]

I was US Military for 9 years including Vietnam (2/502 Infantry, 101st Airborne) I finished my college degree (2 actually) including my love; Fine Arts. I couldn't tell you how many military schools I went to and got certification in many (even safe cracking ...LOL). I'm rated at 100% disabled (Dioxin Poisoning, Agent Orange) poison related illnesses. I had a Tear Drop trailer, but my illnesses took away my walking. So the trailer is gone. She is so lucky to have such a talented and helpful father. I went to Scotland as that's where my Australian wife's family came from. We went to the gypsy museum (The Gordon Boswell Romany Museum). As an artist, I saw some of the most beautiful mobile homes I'd ever seen in my life. We also went to see some of the "river boat homes" ... again excellent creations. I visited Artist I knew there and they told me about the exhibitions. Again, I so wish to have my health back, and both the Australian and US Governments hid the dangers (and Dow/Monsanto both warned them) from everyone, including medical schools and military Doctors under the secrets act! Again, I can't get over what a great job your father did helping you. I taught weekend "Airbrush Classes" to model makers both in the US and here in Oz... I can understand his level of skill!

[@kennethbailey9853]

Thank you Bob and Shannon !

[@donnaaparo9450]

Saw Shannon's van at the WRTR. It is amazing, her Dad did a great job. Asked her if he would do more vans, she said no its a one and only. Great job Dad!! ❤

[@pcthayer]

[@HeatherJacobs-r5h]

[@dsmck70]

Wow, that's a beautiful van and she has an awesome dad.

[@terrytulipane6916]

I like how Bob asks questions that give the viewers a comprehensive view of how the person got into and maintain their lifestyles. It helps "wannabes" craft a possible nomad lifestyle specific to their needs and finances.

[@Chrispbacon99]

Very nice. Especially the Coronas in the fridge
