[@jeanculasec1466]

After watching several van builds, I know why I keep coming back to his and I think that's because Trent's Van has the most personality. A lot of other Van might claim to have a better organisation, build, be more modern or high-tech.. but they look like as if they were industry build from a blueprint, and to be used time to time. On the other hand, this Van every part has been meticulously crafted by him to fit his personality and built with Love in a way that he'd never get bored of living of it every single day

[@JLM-y5g]

I think it's because he wasn't afraid to have some darker sections; many of the newer vans feel blueprinted because they were built on "house-flipper" principles. Lots of light colors, lots of natural light, brand name features, and easy curb appeal. His van doesn't feel like it's supposed to sit in a showroom, never to be touched or lived in.

What an amazing job this guy has done. So talented. I think the design is highly underrated. It's not just about constructing all of it, the interior really looks professionally done. Nothing looks out of place at all and everything comes together so well. You can tell that not only a ton of thought went into this, but the individual that created it is seriously artistic.

[@josephdodson3323]

@@domiu1994 his van? My van? Depends on what you’re looking for? Are you doing the work? Are you ok with used, what are you willing to not have vs what you “need”, miles on the van, etc. You could probably find some used vans with the bare minimum and higher miles for $30,000 and you can find brand new, fully customized builds pushing $200,000 - which is wild. But it all depends on your expectation of the rig.

[@tonyhawk123]

You installed the gas bottle correctly! The number of builds i see which skimp on this part and just end up throwing the bottle in a standard cupboard! A water container over the wheel well is nice but I like your install too, because the closer to centre all the heavy items are the better it is for your van. And probably easier to inspect/replace etc too. I'm not usually a fan of dark themes but yours works really well, you added some white areas which always look classy in a build. Nicely done.

[@spacero953]
