Couples DIY Promaster Conversion | Epic Hidden Shower Design

[@charisma-hornum-fries]

I love it. Especially because it’s made for living in and not to put on KZbin. I would be so much more relaxed in this rig than in many others.

[@colleenheneghan3584]

Love this and it can pull your Jeep!

[@dingalsbe88]

That shower is a great idea

[@TravisTravels]

totally agree

[@jaX-mg3ow]

Shower is AWESOME 👌

[@TravisTravels]

Totally agree

[@Geekchica]

Thank you for doing a tour of a “homemade” van by people who are so happy, smiling, and approachable. I LOVE that they don’t have the “latest” multi-thousand dollar gear. I’m just starting my own Promaster 3500 and this tour gave my optimism such a boost! Keep up the great work!

[@TravisTravels]

Right on, thanks for watching!

[@salvaseville719]

Plenty of amazing details make this van unique! Well done

[@OurMidlifeVan]

Thanks!!

[@pdmullgirl]

Neat couple. I like em! They have got the right idea. And the shower is so clever. It’s basically like the one’s in a pop up camper. It’s really nice. And they have everything they need. I wish them health, happiness and safety on their travels. ❤️💜💚

[@TravisTravels]

Awesome, thank you for watching.

[@KapricornKary]

"Rich has almost 1 cabinet" Ha! I love this couple and their van! It's such a nice open airy layout and that tiny bathroom/shower is genius. I'd live in it in a heartbeat. 💜

[@TravisTravels]

Right, it’s a sweet setup. I was super impressed with It.

[@Matteo-ks6fn]

Sympathetic cuple and a nice van. Nice to see a not so young couple going on adventures.

[@getlostwithjustinkris]

"Eamon and Beck". Hahahaha! That was too funny. Great job, Travis! Nice video. Keep up the great work!

[@TravisTravels]

Lol thanks! I loved their build and they were such a fun couple to shoot.

[@salsan2946]

Sweet setup!

[@TravisTravels]

Totally agree

[@TravisTravels]

I just love this shower setup. Most showers really close off the space in vans. Making it feel very tight and claustrophobic. But with a little effort, this setup is ideal to me. What do you guys think?

[@jaX-mg3ow]

Love the shower

[@rebecca-chrisndrewsmom]

Absolutely love their setup ❤

[@DesertAdventuresinArizona]

Great video Travis! I liked how they bought used and then built an very nice van. Steve

[@TravisTravels]

Thanks Steve, they did a great job with this build. They are such nice people, if you ever see them on the road chat it up with them. They are great converses.

[@FireflyNanny]

Another great video Travis! I could live in this one too! And I love the price point they were able to convert it at. I agree with you that shower is a nice touch, and I like how she said she also used the sink before they added that shower. Yes sink baths are a thing lol

[@TravisTravels]

Lol absolutely! This one is one of my favorite builds so far

[@hammockinparadise]

Excellent! What a great conversion! 💖💖

[@TravisTravels]

Right!? I love their build.

[@OurMidlifeVan]

Thanks!!

[@BecomingBev]

Travis, you’re interview/tour style is really, really good. I believe your channel will do well. I could learn a lot from you.

[@TravisTravels]

I’m an open book baby.

[@DivineMojo]

Fantastic job! Glad you are getting the tours and views you were hoping for. God Bless You Always. 😁🙏🏼💜💙💖

[@TravisTravels]

Yes thank you! It feels so good, finally lol!!

[@kellypoulos8702]

Lovely

[@lindakocher6968]

I really like this. Your conversion is the best I've seen!

[@TravisTravels]

Right on thank you!

[@roxyraber8931]

I saved this one excellent van tour, 💜🧜🏼‍♀️

[@TravisTravels]

Sweet, share with your friends. I loved touring this build.

[@richtoledo9899]

This may be the best van design I've ever seen. Can you tell me about grey water? Is there a tank below for sink and shower, or does the shower just drain through the floor to the ground?

[@TravisTravels]

Hey thanks for checking out my channel. You can ask them directly on their Instagram here: instagram.com/ourmidlifevan?

[@OurMidlifeVan]

We have a 15 gallon grey water tank under the van that the sink and shower drain to. 😁

[@jameshambrick7918]

Excellent Tour Travis! Sorry not to see you but good to hear your voice. 👍

[@TravisTravels]

I know, sorry bud. Focus is tours, hardly time for vlogging while I try to get by financially. But once the channel takes off and I'm not dependent on making money other ways. I can start vlogging more. Have plans for a trip to AZ for another tour so I'll be sharing that with ya guys soon :)

[@christyssimplelife3916]

Van life or skoolie life just means we are not homeless just house less❤️🚌😜

[@TravisTravels]

Exactly!

[@gabbygabbygirl]

Can the toilet be moved when showering or do they sit on it and shower?

[@OurMidlifeVan]

Yes, most times we remove the toilet when we shower.

[@celiabesore3298]

Love your ideas-pretty clever.

[@OurMidlifeVan]

Thanks!!'

[@bikeninja956]

really nice build out, the roof has me intrigued... any idea if that roof rack DIY? also, I wonder what width of kitchen counter top they're using, it's seems like everyone goes with 24", whereas 22" makes much more sense in this case...

[@TravisTravels]

You can ask them through their IG

[@OurMidlifeVan]

Glad you like the build. The Roof rack is an after market roof rack by AA Products that we purchased from Amazon. The counter top is a standard depth, it is an Ikea butcher block counter top.

I have the same frig in white and wanted to use it in my van build! I'm planning on using what I have. I'm living with my son , DIL, and four grandchildren. I have a room on the main floor with my own full bath. I bought my frig so I can have my coffee and food for breakfast so I can wake up and have my early morning to myself. I have a tiny keruig, electric tea pot, egg maker, toaster, blender and a single burner. I know I want a shower in my van, I like the half shower/bathroom. I love that you kept the build and van at $21,000! How much power does the frig? Do you have enough power to keep it running? Thank you for sharing!

@@TravisTravels Thank You!😊

[@roxyraber8931]

In hoping to see the video 🥰

[@jacklyncramton2958]

How many miles did your van have on it when you bought it?

[@OurMidlifeVan]

The van had 150k when we purchased it. We now have 190k and it’s going strong.

[@AdirondackBroker]

Hi folks, we're building also; but you mentioned the heater using kerosene that doesn't smell. Your list links to a diesel however. I like the idea of NO smell; but what brand of heater does this. Help :-)

[@OurMidlifeVan]

The heater is a diesel heater but you can used odorless kerosene instead of diesel. We purchased the heater on Amazon amzn.to/3vmRUFt the kerosene we purchase at a store front.

[@TravisTravels]

Hey it does burn diesel or kerosene actually. Here's the link: amzn.to/3rMqiaH

[@brendaallen7683]

Is the fridge set up on its own battery bank? Doesn't the 120v draw A LOT of electricity? I see all these van conversions and most of them are saying you MUST get a 12v compressor based fridge and they are VERY expensive.

[@TravisTravels]

I do remember them saying it took a lot of power. But I don’t know the details. You’d have to ask them on their IG.

[@Lindasromperroom]

Looks like you are in Az now!

[@robert8133]

Is this a 12 Volt Fridge?

[@fpl-canadagaz]

$7000 for this build seems strange. Did it cost that - all in ? Obviously without the van purchase as they said.

[@TravisTravels]

What's so strange about it?

[@fpl-canadagaz]

@@TravisTravels - would love a break down. It's a great build and obviously doesn't go in to too much detail on brands etc.....but that's a lot for $7000 k from scratch shell don't you think ? Great video though and I so want it to be true :)

[@TravisTravels]

@@fpl-canadagaz Well they did all the labor, and materials don't always have to come directly from the major stores like Home Depot or Lowes. I often come across people that get their materials for free. The largest expense they had other than the van was the solar. Diesel heater was only $125, the fridge is about $200. I spent only $1500 or so for my build. There van is 2.5 times bigger than mine. I think it can certainly be done. I've some impressive builds for around $300 with materials just found on the side of the road or in dumpsters. So it can definitely be done. I would reach out to them on IG and ask them. I'm sure they'd be happy to answer your questions.

[@fpl-canadagaz]

@@TravisTravels Thanks for the replies. Again - great video. Keep 'em coming :)

[@TravisTravels]

@@fpl-canadagaz Thanks Gary, next video airs Saturday night at 6 :)
