Dark Vibes in 4 season Adventure Van

[@tjme]

Great build, love the darker vibes and the black/silver epoxy counters. Shower setup is excellent solution for a 144. A real shower isn't something I'm willing to sacrifice for a smaller wheelbase. Love this!

[@JohnDoe-ds6pr]

The man is modest... but his work is very tidy and he makes it sound easy. A very good offroad package !!

[@bettyolis6228]

Love this van. Love the lift, a/c, power, tires and how everything is tucked on either sides under the bed. Bet this knowledgeable builder could have the bed rise so there could be a sitting area. Design of the interior is very chic! Btw you sure know your way around names of things in van life, to be able to make it a informative interview. Thank you Jarrod!

[@LilyWasHereMB]

and with 15+ builds even under Jarrod's criteria, he's a Pro.

His first employee needs to be marketing pr. Nice looking van.

[@larajackson7506]

Very nice build!! Thank you for sharing! Much love to ya!❤

[@duanehundley]

Great build. Lots of different items that I've never heard of. The pop outs that look like glass look great, almost like factory. The AMG steering wheel would make long drives a lot more fun.

[@injectionAI]

dude has the perfect demeanor for someone you want building your rig. Low stress, even keel. Dope

[@loveu2222]

He's know what's doing, very,very nice and professional job

[@bencuraza6503]

GREAT Looking Conversion and as ALWAYS Great Tour🚙👍👍⬆️

[@ifell3]

FFS, you know when you have a layout in your head, then you see another design....... Well this is it. Really like the idea of a clean floor from front to back, but love the idea of a garage!! Cheers aha

[@lindzeelane]

Orange County Dude! No one works harder!!! I will contact you when I'm ready for the build!!! Wish you were still here in OC‼️

[@serendipity6277]

Thank you for showing us this build. Cool how much can fit in a 144. Question 🙋‍♀️, if he is going to put the toilet under the sink, did he tell you were his grey water would go? Did I miss if he had a heater because he certainly has the power.

[@Careuhh]

I spay mark! Loved this van, they did a good job!

[@rudivandoornegat2371]

I love it. The extra points go to the epoxy kitchen block and the shower.

[@rudivandoornegat2371]

And also extra points for the stealth window flares.

[@prophets.trading]

awesome build!!!!

[@TUNDRALU]

Wow Jarrod what a nice clean build! And a really nice guy for a mussel head! lol ,,,had to say that! haha.. He really knows what he's doing! great tour!

[@JarrodTocci]

He’s soooooo nice!!!

[@howzk4218]

What a slick build! Great components and super well thought out design and the color palette is different but outstanding and the lighting OMG 😲 from chill to wide awake. Thanks for sharing the ACI build Jarrod another awesome video 📹

That was quite a love fest 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@LastNameTom]

Why dont conversion companies ever finish the rear doors? Its like, 95% done when they do that.

[@JarrodTocci]

I've talked a lot with pros about this. It's a lot easier to leave it and insulate it and then put the factory panels back on then it is to try and finish them. I've personally finished mine on my van and I always messed it up

[@mariaalfonso685]

Looks good, love apoxy tops, and your table that looked like ocean

[@anilchopra9195]

What a Van,toilet with kichen,food with toilet.

[@davidpatrick1813]

I got so captivated I almost forgot to click on the thumbs up. Nice set up.... I think I may be able to swing the price of a door latch or lock. 🙂

[@user-pf5xq3lq8i]

Jarrods virtual window idea. Ultimate stealth "window".

[@LilyWasHereMB]

look at his website. I'm guessing $189-$199k based on others

[@LilyWasHereMB]

Love it when a builder really knows his stuff and, is good at design. My CnC system lost all its refrigerant after 18 months. Recharged it (~$280) and 6 months later blowing hot air. Could be an install issue. Working with Chris on it. Problem is, the systems were put in and the van built out around them - very difficult to access without deconstruction.

[@JarrodTocci]

Reach out to this builder in this video too. He might know some of the issues

[@CJ30123]

if you search around the forums this is pretty common. They are overpriced junk.

[@michaelscarfi3196]

Have you had someone put dye in to help find the leak? Or nitrogen?

[@michaelscarfi3196]

@@CJ30123 I won’t say they are junk but if you compare it to the pro air which is a similar mini split low voltage unit with a much larger capacity it is priced about 70 percent higher . Per btu it’s about 300 percent higher.

[@LilyWasHereMB]

@@michaelscarfi3196 problem I have is nobody - van builders or auto mechanics - will touch the custom build or work on Mercedes and I won't take it to RV dealers. The builder is a 5,000 mile round trip so, thats a non starter. When I had it recharged it was on the condition that there was no warranty. After 21 months, thousands of miles, and thousands in diesel, I finally found an expediter van builder in Indiana that will work on my van. His first project was to put a hole in my roof that I could run cables thru for security cameras and lights ($500). His second job was to get power to a Sirocco fan ($100). Third job I spent $5,500 to double the size of my battery bank (now 800 amps). 4th job will be to fix the CnC and a leaky hose clamp on the Rixen system ($TBD). 5th job will be put a new awning on (~$1,800). I'm not a handy guy. To all those van builders that would not put the hole in my roof, FU!

Merry Christmas Jarod and happy new year! Long time subscriber. Love your content, watch every video, keep up the good work and be sure to make time for youself in the new year

[@JarrodTocci]

Thank you. Happy holidays and happy new year to you!

[@sharinsharitv]

Awesome! Clayton, if I give up some wardrobe could we squeeze my motorcycle inside? 😂 Need stealth due to work travels in the city… I know I’m asking for too much now!!!😂😅🏍 when you get the hydraulic bed schematics to work with bike, I’d gladly be a beta tester for ya! Nice work man…🙏

What else do you need? An area to sit and hang out and to work or eat a meal.

[@JarrodTocci]

for sure. swivel seats could be that too

It's an adventure van and only a 144. That design is living out of it not in it.

Now...if that shower will fit between a rib bed double seat and my rear bed on a 144.....oh that would be sweet! Time to get tape measure out!

[@knockknockbusted]

Good looking van, fo sho.

[@One2ManyHobbies]

Love your content but the Canon wobbles are bad Jarrod - picture quality is amazing, but the wobbles is hard to watch, especially in the small vans. Sell it and buy a Sony A7IV, or A7sII.

[@JarrodTocci]

The stabilizer in the Sony is much worse. I've used both and I think I need more rest or work out more as I have a heavier camera lol

[@One2ManyHobbies]

@@JarrodTocciI own the Sony FX3, I don’t have any wobbles in my videos with the Sony IBIS on & FCPX stabilizer in post & it’s smooth! Love your content, hope the wobbles get worked out!

[@brianp7938]

always learn something new on your videos - the Tetravan shower is sweet!

[@JarrodTocci]

I like that shower too!!

[@gijane1996]

i want to do my own build. i cant climb up to the roof due to bad knees. **if i could only find a builder who could do the roof work for me**. hint hint

I wish they used more Ford transit vans, kinda tired of the big expensive Mercedes conversions. Love the dark interior vibe just not a fan of the chassis.

[@JarrodTocci]

I know ford has been making a push to get into “vanlife” so we shall see

[@CJ30123]

Transit orders have been delayed 9-12 months for the last two years. Probably one reason we don't see many lately.

[@user-pf5xq3lq8i]

You can always buy used sprinter to start your own build or hand it to a guy like this..

[@vanman3752]

Nice build except for the hokey tires.

[@JarrodTocci]

You don’t like the KO2 tires? Everyone uses them. I’m a Falken fan myself
