As a class b owner/traveler of two tv's for the last 28 years, I put a lot of importance on roof air that can be powered anywhere. Opens up the full four seasons to go, or just to be comfortable when the need calls for it. 1993 Airstream B van (16 years) and a 2009 Krystal Sprinter (12 years). Both with showers and roof ac and generators. Bought the Airstream when I turned 40 in 1995. Still going strong, best life living decision.

[@danielwerre4574]

I work in long beach and go on walks on my breaks.. I witnessed this van being built over several months right next to my work.. crazy to stumble across this.

[@jayberwocky1]

I'm pretty sure that's the single best conversion job I've ever seen. Fantastic design, fantastic execution!

[@foxycat8751]

Love this. This was so well done and explained very clearly about FWD and AWD. Thanks.

[@bredemeijer9648]

Awd and 4x4

[@riogrande5761]

Pretty amazing. You really have to know your stuff to design and set up a rig like that. One practical thing that sets this apart from most "van" tiny homes is it has the all important toilet/shower. Even if it's a small space, those two things are must haves/

[@MobileDwellings]

Yeah this conversion was really well executed!

[@maxboya]

I agree Riogrande. Way too overpriced for that conversion. Also has the worst motor even produced by Ford. You’ll hate the spark plugs when they snap on you. That 5.4L must get 7-9mpg down the highway especially those high of gears. Should of just spent the extra $2-3K for a 7.3 that year. More power. More efficient and more reliable. This is sadly lipstick on a pig.

[@camposvazquez]

Awesome build, great video and a very professional presentation/ information on specs, advantages and reasoning for certain features!! Kudos to you! Wishing you and your family many safe camping trips!!

[@lynnburke4403]

We bought this shed at the beginning of July. kzbin.infoUgkxe81Bz076USDt6sYU1rDcNa2LwCIKADgB It’s built now and just needs painting. The instructions were clear and concise. All the parts were there and in excellent condition.

[@dennistucker1153]

This is one of the most impressive vehicles I've ever seen. Most excellent job on this.

[@heidiswatek1348]

Great Rig! I really love seeing what you did with an older RV , bringing it back to something better than its ever been

[@gideonporter537]

An awful lot of work and thinking went into this. Worth it.

[@marcothehammer]

This really is an outstanding off-road RV. The overall fit and finish appears to be second to none. I appreciate the owners detailed descriptions about how the build was first conceived, designed, and then implemented. All very good choices and all made on solid considerations. The end result is a very capable off-road RV that practically anyone would be able to use and enjoy without further modifications. However... I don't know how much power an incinerating toilet requires, but that would be my choice, and I would try to devise a means to increase the solar panel surface area. I'm envious and I have to nit-pick.

[@juliussins8736]

There's no price for satisfaction

[@camposvazquez]

Agreed ...I just can't afford that price... I have a conventional class a RV.. I flat tow a 4wd 4runner.... That's as close to his life I get

The only thing that's more impressive then someone who knows the nitty gritty details of their gear is when they imagine, design and build it... this cat is the real deal!

[@marialindell9874]

I recommend getting leather care products for the front seats. Can be found in virtually any equestrian store ever. Caring for leather products increases quality, age and durability. You wouldn't want cracked seats right after you bought the car, right?

Nice van. Built.really well. FYI , princes color was purple.

The Best 🤠🇫🇮

[@davidpatrick1813]

I have had a nature head for a few years now and plainly got tired of the cleaning. If I waited too long, though no smell, it would get dog heavy. So ... I removed the stir bar and put in a removable bucket. Then line the bucket with double plastic bag. I put in a layer of wood pine chips and then as the black business is done I layer another pine chips (fine but not sawdust, which may work too. I set the bucket lid on top between uses, really easy to do... just as an additional thing. The open flap opens and closes well. Then when full I can remove the bucket and/or bag and it's outta here. I have noticed near zero bugs at all not like the peat... some use other expandable too.. I just got tired of cleaning it and at 1K for the toilet, I would have done something way different at first... but just repurposed what I already have.... This is a great rig ... good job....

[@gldsmith61]

The revels are 4x4 not all wheel drive, they even have a low range button. And there is a company that makes lockers for the sprinter. FYI. But it is always nice to have a one of a kind like yours.
