Supernice van!

[@millenialsmom2214]

My husband and I lost the house we raised our kids in, in the 2008 stock market crash. We might have been okay but he broke his back at work and right after I got a diagnosis that required radiation...my health insurance was CRAP and with him not able to work at the time and me working in commission only corporate sales while I suffered from radiation sickness, we just got buried. So we're back to renting. I want a mobile tiny house, or renovated RV, bus, 5th wheel, van, something. I watch these type of videos ALL the time. You two are SO good at this. And with millenials and Gen Z not being able or not wanting to buy, you've made a great decision in building this business. I wish you the success and I hope you wake each day and are passionate about what you do. 😊

[@paulborash7302]

Hey guys! Love what you both do always. I’ve left comments before, I definitely have taken bits of inspiration from you two for my own builds. I’m wrapping up my second van build right now, and running into some stree with my electrical system. I’ve consulted three different people with varying levels of electrical knowledge and haven’t been able to troubleshoot the problem. Really thought I did everything right! Do you have a contact email or some way that I can get in touch with you? I’m sure you’re both very busy, but if you’d be willing to lend an experienced set of ears and eyes through photos and such I would feel so grateful! Let me know what I could do. Much love from Montana!

[@justinmeneses6027]

Amazing! Just by looking at the finished result, I can truly see that you both put your heart and soul into each and every build. The video just helps put into perspective the depth of love and time you put into all of your projects, not to mention all of the video editing time. The video of the whole process was great to watch and you guys are doing an amazing job, keep it going!! :)

[@GreatGrannyFreeBird]

another amazing build. Thanks for showing the details. Get so many great ideas from you 2.

[@333106]

So get a beefy frame van that can tow some good weight, has a big diesel engine and doolies. Convert the fuel system to run on used cooking fuel, then get a decent size enclosed trailer. Put your reasonably sized dirty cooking grease storage tank in there, grease fuel filter system, battery bank and solar equipment, and more. Don't forget to put a big thick umbilical cable for the inverter to connect to the van through the trailer tongue and wiring to the van. Then you will have a fully sustainable rig with free fuel as you collect from places that allow you to drain their garbage grease vat for them. And you'll have the freedom to set up your trailer with a bar too or whatever you want. Yet still having the van rig as your cozy living quarters with energy efficient appliances keeping you warm and entertained. Upgrade your suspension to aur ride for smoother trailer towing ride. Don't forger the easy hookups and quick pump start switches for the hoses and pump on the trailer outside too so when you roll up on those grease dumpsers you can drain it like a ninja in the night.

[@trinitywave]

[@chrishindep]

Always love y’all’s builds. Another beautiful van. One thing I’ve always wondered is what size of plywood you use for your cabinets to make sure they aren’t overly heavy but sturdy enough for everyday use and van life. Again beautiful build.

[@scarletandseth]

Depends. We will probably do a breakdown of this stuff on one of our next builds since we get asked this a lot! We do always talk about it on our daily checkins on Instagram when we are building so follow us over there for more day to day stuff.

[@ubermoc]

I love all their builds, but this is my favorite so far. I need a build that can fit a laptop office and a desktop with a 48 c1 TV as a monitor and this can do it. Only think it lacks is a toilet.

[@thisismaso]

This is a little difficult to explain over a comment response but we may make a video on it in the near future. Also, while it looks cool, to do again we would probably just do a square box for the windows on the back!

The vans themselves have definitely gone up in price over the last few years and are especially hard to get now. However it is without a doubt our favorite way to travel but we also just like to live very minimally so we enjoy it even if we aren’t traveling.

[@caragriffo]

Hey I’m wondering what skylight you used for the roof, been looking for one that size for my caravan. Thank u

[@sirinn1646]

I believe it is Dometic Midi Heki. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to buy from a US supplier. I have been looking for my van conversion. I know people are taking advantages of your videos and copy your work but I wish you guys share the details of your supply @scarletandseth There are not many sources for beginner van convertors for skylights. Thank you for all inspiration.

[@scarletandseth]

Yeah this is true, honestly we don’t have any supplier, we are usually finding them wholesale on eBay and importing them from Germany so it’s quite a time consuming and expensive process. That also means once you buy it there’s no link to share anymore. The one we used in this van is the Heki 2.
