I'm currently in the process of converting my Cube into a lil camper so I can travel for scuba. I LOVE how you did the bed, and the way you did the storage shelf-to-table is so clever. I'm definitely stealing your bed idea. It's been two years since you posted this video. Is there anything you would've changed/done differently now that you've had more experience living in it? 👀 I don't expect a reply, but I'd love any additional advice or tips if you have them.

I have a 2011 Nissan cube and I’m so glad to see someone found a way to make it livable! I really struggled with how to make a bed that I could lay down and I’m only 5 foot three but it was difficult. It never dawned on me to lower the passenger seat like you have. It’s also great to see a woman. I hear from Bob Wells that the majority of the van living people are women!

Thank you! Yes, I"m about 5'4" and have plenty of room. Only downside is the reclined seat takes up storage space. Also, I'm not a FTer, just taking trips as of now, but never say never :)

I have a 2012 6 speed Cube and I love it. I'm 70 and I love going on road trips. I always loved going camping but now, I'm more of a hotel kind of guy. Your Cube camper conversion is genius! If I were 10 years younger I'd copy your efforts in a heartbeat. You seem to have thought of everything. Have you made other videos of actually camping in your Cube? Even though this video is a year old, I'm going to subscribe so I can find out. WELL DONE!!!!

I'm curious tracey: *Did you take out the back shelf on the bed side?* I have camped a TON in my Element & getting in & out the back door is pretty damn handy. Thinking about buying one of these on Saturday. If so I'll be doing a conversion like yours except with solar. Storage only on the driver's side. Planning on counterweighting the load on the L side with batteries for solar + other heavy stuff under the wood floor on the R.

Did you end up painting the wood? There’s something that’s been haunting me. When we go to the SWAPMEET in our cube to sell stuff my wife sleeps sideways in the back she’s 5’7” and she says she falls asleep just fine. So my thought is why don’t you just put the bed sideways?

I did not paint the wood, I just put a urethane finish on it for protection. Your wife must sleep curled up. I like to sleep on my back and at 5'4" I do not fit sideways.
