VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Meet Bronte and her 2001 Chevy Express Box Truck that she self-converted! This solo female traveler has been living in her home full time since November 2020, and has loved every minute. Reusing materials was top of the list when converting the box truck. She was able to use the pine tongue and groove from her father's flooring project as paneling on the walls, and because her rig was an old electrician vehicle she was able to reuse the breaker box and fuse box for her solar setup! She was also able to reuse the original flooring after a few rounds with the sander. As self-described home body, Bronte loves being able to adventure and always come back to her home, We Love That!!

I almost purchased a box truck a few months ago and after watching this video I'm sad the it fell through. These are amazing platforms to build a tiny house and Bronte did an amazing job on this platform!

[@douglasharley2440]

i built a tiny home in a box truck and i couldn't be happier. imo, it's the ideal platform, because it's big enough to hold everything you need in a home (i.e., fullsize bed, fullsize shower, full kitchen, composting toilet, lots of water, lots of solar), without being so big that you lose all stealth ability. you should check out penske, that's where i got my truck, and although it's kind of a pain in the butt to find one and wait for them to take it out of service and get it ready, they do a great job maintaining their trucks, because it's fleet service.

[@BoxCarChronicles]

@@douglasharley2440 Exaaaactly! They're the Goldilocks vehicle - not too big, not too small. Just enough room to fit everything you need, yet still stay pretty low profile. It's like having a studio apartment on wheels ;)

Maybe it keeps calling you to take a risk and build one

[@sman2000ifly]

I am feeling the same way. Of it easnt married I'd definitely step out and build out a van.

[@ELCEV]

Young, smart, simple and very resourceful. An old guy in NC/FL enjoyed your video. Note: when you can afford it consider a small Burkey water filter for healthy water on the road.

[@DJEshelman-personal]

I can so relate to the "why am I paying for an apartment I'm never in" thing when I was younger. I wish I'd been smart enough to go this route. The sheer amount of what I'd have saved from flights and hotel rooms alone gets rapidly depressing...

[@contactjoy4140]

Of all the thousands of videos I've watched, you are the ONLY PERSON who has EVER STATED that the cold drains batteries, the water freezes etc. THANK-YOU FOR YOUR HONESTY!!

[@BoxCarChronicles]

Thank you!!! I had no idea until I hit the road either! No one talks about it! Definitely something I wish I'd known

[@redwolfexr]

Most people don't realize that she doesn't have AC either. It takes a MUCH more robust solar/battery setup than that. She is using diesel/propane for heating/cooking so she can get by with low power otherwise. The units with AC are usually either dependent on generators or shore power to work. She could probably do it if she completely covered her roof with solar, and added lithium batteries. That makes the final result FAR less stealthy though. This has always been one of my favorite minimalist designs other than AC. (I live in Texas)

[@sman2000ifly]

Been stuck at home with covid the last 2 weeks going down the youtube hole and started watching these van life tours. I like the simplistic openness of your build. There isn't too much hiding behind cabinets to get in the way of reaching the things you need.

[@BoxCarChronicles]

Thank you! I tried making things very simplistic and minimalistic. Glad you enjoyed :) Hope you're feeling better!

[@BoxCarChronicles]

So fun seeing how the tour turned out! Huge thank you to Brian for filming 😊 and helping put this together!

If those slider up cabinets are sticking and they're wood on wood another build out spoke to that by putting bees wax on them and they slid well again.

@@BoxCarChronicles Same!😊 Btw, how about installing a Diesel Heater. It seems to be a really inexpensive supplement to your other systems. Many say it's great for the cold weather. I've seen Van Lifers put the Jug of Diesel in the garage with a long tube attached, long enough to sit in the ground & fill up at the gas station. 🔹I think the last Van build detail I saw with that was Humble Road... 7:49am I'll edit this in 5 min... **Edit: Unfortunately I couldn't find it.

What a smart and lovely girl. My husband is going to covert a box truck. He’s an electrician, lol. Maybe he needs to find an electricians truck. We will use flooring for walls too. Because I found it on the side of the road. We have done a shed cabin. Just purchased an Rv. But now my daughter needs it. Just for her internship. It’s good we have it available for her. Maybe a box truck would be nice for her. It’s a cool home! Glad she isn’t having to work so hard. I did that when I was young. It took a toll on my body. I’m disabled today because of my hard work life plus a hereditary autoimmune disease. It’s best not to over work or put yourself through lost of stress, it will catch up with you. So happy this young lady can have a home on wheels. It’s perfect. She needs a buddy heater or one of those cute little fire places. Hope she gets everything in life that’s awesome! Wish her the best!

I like that your build was a simple and uncluttered Design one suggestion would be to get yourself some magnets or saddle racks and put them there on the wall underneath your cabinet and where your counter sets but I think you're doing a great job you still have the potential to store more items like if you wanted to pick up the extra food or stash anything also you did a great job on the flooring and now you have a nice floor you can walk around barefoot

[@thomasluby1754]

Wish we would have been given the whole tour. What about a bathroom/shower? Rear door? What does this "box truck" look like from the outside? Also, I have now watched any number of these RV type home builds and she is the 1st to talk about power not lasting in cold weather, then lack of heat which leads to her water freezing. No other campers spoke of that issue. They always say between their batteries and solar panels they have "plenty" of power for everything they have inside (heat, lights, etc.).

[@shannonking2126]

I also would have liked to see more of the van, the sides and also the view from the open back doors, as well as the cab. However, I too am glad to be warned about cold weather draining the battery. I had not known about that, either. As for freezing water, some people slice pool noodles vertically and place them around pipes for insulation. But I wonder if the problem is that she only has 100 watts of solar? Most videos I have seen show at least twice that or much more. As for a bathroom, she did say one of the challenges was planning for a place to go to the bathroom, so I don't think she has a shower or a toilet. I am impressed that she figured out how to do so much of this build herself, especially the electric stuff and the water.
