PRIVACY CURTAIN | Ford E250 Conversion Van

I live full time in a Ford E250 Cargo Van. I installed a blackout curtain the other day and it was a super simple install. Total cost of the Curtain was $30. I don't know why i waited over 6 months to do this hahahaha SO SIMPLE. and super convenient to just pull them shut. i Love it.

Chrome, I really love you for how you ALWAYS consider Disco in even the little things. You situated the curtains in a way so he could still poke his little nose through!!! Your love for him means everything to me, everything! ❤️❤️🐶😎❤️❤️

[@stormyswearengen9102]

I am a 54 year old woman from Ontario , waiting a few more months to get my own van, VAN living here I come.....time is ticking a little slow for me. Spending time getting furniture ready for my new home. An extended like you have. I watch your videos , and you make me smile. thank you for sharing.

[@sondraferguson2452]

Disco does all the hard work. Keeps us all coming back and keeps the Police happy. You are the guy holding the camera and pushing buttons for music. Be glad he likes you enough to keep you around being his driver. Lots of us would take your place.

[@debruneau01]

GAWD those views of the falls, forest, mountains.. I want to be out there in my van putting it on canvas, painting what I see in the world,.. not from painting from a photo bored in my condo wishing I could smell the fresh air! Now how much can you build out a leased van?!? HAHAHA

[@geraldhornsby]

Thank you, Chrome! Pretty much a perfect video. Driving - tick. Disco - tick. Useful van stuff - tick. Beautiful scenery - tick. Damn. You're getting good at this!

[@loreneknight9755]

Wow...where is that amazing waterfall & footbridge? The beauty around us never stops, right? You & disco are blessed beyond measure.

[@newtuber4freedom43]

“B” roll stands for Beautiful! Great scenery! A+

[@superdayday3462]

Black out curtain good idea, love the rain and walk across the bridge with Disco, this is one of your better Disco videos, he is so important in your life. Stay well.

[@donnapalumbo863]

Disco is looking fit, van life agrees with him.

[@paulramos2383]

Beautiful! I also have a baby, her name is Menta, Spanish for mint, she's a pitty mix, she is 3 1/2 yrs and she is adorable, loves being around people. I think she would get along with Disco.

[@SmootRK]

I really like how you present... a little bit of good info or something new you have tried, a little bit of chit-chat, and a little bit of camera and sound work. Really good mix. Continue to keep things positive. You risk becoming a really good role-model here!

[@paraniidnyc]

I learned that can living does need a lit of thought in so far as figuring out what works and what doesn't. 🙂

[@chess502]

watching Disco get up those stairs reminded me of an earlier video of him in the snow. Both a drag for him I'm sure, but at least he didn't freeze anything this time .... justsayin

[@pats5796]

Beautiful photos! Thanks for the tour...be safe be happy.🚐

[@dorothymerrell6091]

Privacy curtain looks great. Loving the b roll. Disco the explorer says the fresh spring water sure is good.

[@gisellegonzalez2628]

I miss the rain, trees, ferns I’m out in the dessert. It’s a different kind of dusty beauty lol. Thanks for the idea, my curtain pole keeps falling. Love Disco’s chubby muddy paws too cute. Good luck with the build out!! Stay safe 💖🐾

[@HISBestLifeCoach]

Learned today: A "bad butthole" is a thing, and that you don't eat it. LOL!!! Love you DISCO. You handled the muddy trail like a real trooper, and then you gave yourself a paw bath while getting a cool FRESH drink. That's my boy!!!

[@bonniepwtf]

Was so hilarious seeing Disco peeking thru the curtains when U were showing how no light came thru😀

[@michaeldee6635]

Yep, I noticed the curtain a while back too. It looks great and gets the job done. Enjoyed hanging out with you today. C ya later, weirdo.. 👍

[@fayewhite7541]

Disco had a great workout lol He will be snoring well tonight 😴💤

[@philcapling8268]

I used the same principle in my conversion van for the front divider from the driver/passenger area. Also, used the same thing for the back windows...but with side windows, I cut Reflectix to fit the window and then blackout curtain cut to fit and spray glued for each side window-I use the reflective side when it is hot during the day to reflect heat & switch it at night to block out anyone able to see in. No fasteners necessary, since Reflectix (you can get it at Home Depot) easily presses in place and stays up well-just take it down during the day-easy to store. Love your video, Chrome. Another great job!

[@wisconsinrailstotrailscycl4277]

The fabric blends in well with the fabric of the van, and it looks like it is professionally done, good job!

[@MontyRoyal963]

Humble beginnings😁

[@gypsygal9573]

Awesome video! I saw Disco walking through the mud and thought, that can’t be good ha ha. We need Disco paw print stickers next

[@kodeywhitewolf5756]

another simple effective way to be a nomad......Great video...A love pat for Disco

[@roadrunner17lee66]

Hey Chrome, if you ever find yourself needing an extended dog sitter add me to the list and I’ll come to you. Everyone else gets the cool dogs that are so funny, behaves and I don’t. No matter how many classes we take , it makes no difference. I get the wild ones.

[@Catmoore60]

Capillano! You make me so HAPPY seeing my favorite city and all the beautiful places around it! You and Disco are so lucky to live there!

[@rioseven9123]

That van is really looking good. Can't wait for the build videos.

[@gennavivegenna4540]

"I love butt holes".... I'm still chuckling and choking on my own laughter how about everyone else Really enjoyed this video beautiful beautiful place and chrome is just so much fun, thanks for this, made my day AGAIN love from gennavive in the UK

[@williamosborne6258]

It's all about DISCO love him

[@robertvandenbrink6187]

Great simple improvement. ..going to do the same to my van ...thanks for a great tip!

[@Mr-hz6jz]

Everything happens at the right timing 😂 nice addition to the van 👍🏾

[@animalsanimals8956]

My god Canada is beautiful. 🏞️ Disco, stairs, good boy!

[@paraniidnyc]

Looks good! Disco is adorable, as always.

[@AnnetteZang]

Thanks so much for the curtain tour...it looks fantastic. Looking forward to the other changes u have planned....have a great day you two. Hugs

[@VANESSASBLESSEDLIFE]

*watching again*

[@LifeBetweenTheDash]

Nice. I always worry about puncturing airbags.

[@grahamdoyle6317]

Looks awesome Chrome. Great job!!!!

[@divorcethehorse-gettingoff7702]

Loved the video Chrome! Most people would actually be surprised how hard it is to install a divider curtain without putting holes in the ceiling liners. I tried several times and it just didn't work. That's why I built my perminent divider wall.

[@ruthvancise4895]

Love the music on the B role Chrome ! Good Job :)

[@cindylou943]

Really like the curtain, Chrome.

[@gbryant261]

Well gee, I'll never look at a fig in the same way ever again.

[@petmom74]

Knucklehead. Butt holes? Really?. Such a beautiful stream for Disco, though!! Thanks for the curtain idea. I've also seen people use tension shower curtain rods! Love you guys!!

[@SurfBeatle]

Your Videos always make me smile. : )

[@Homelesskateboards]

yeah disco should help more ! lol thanks for the video!

[@BlueHighwaysTraveler]

Cool i have a wool blanket for my curtain but it shows light at the top and sides. Ill try some of these ideas. Thanks

[@deepalladino7119]

Thank you for sharing 👍🌞🐶

[@kmgreenrph]

Your new curtain looks very nice. Don't know why Disco didn't suggest it earlier.

[@sarafollows8589]

Like the curtain rod idea. I have a tension rod but it does not go back far enough because of the curve of the roof. Will try your idea.

[@thebackroads7074]

I figured, if your weather got any warmer, that that shipping blanket "wintah-fix" would heat up a home on the roam when a cool breeze iz what ya needz on a steamy and humid evening....lol. I am eying a blackout curtain or two for both "lil red" and my bedroom window in my "lil pad"....lol and I'm thinking some little plastic clip modifications to hold the curtain rod will be the way I go to get some privacy in my tiny steed.....and if long enough, I might use the remaining fabric on the bottom to cover my windows inserts for the "back of the house" in my Rolling Rancho called Red. 90's today......I'm heading to my own wee lil water feature, and this beez gonna try out my own b-roll, inspired by Chromee on the Roamie and that dancin' Disco Doggie....thanks for some inspire this very morning. 🦄🐝😎

[@michaelpockat1]

Awesome idea with the curtain rod......I bought that kain power bank on Amazon you were selling....thanks again for great video stat weird bro....

[@wandafanning7283]

Crome! You did good! For a man! Not sure if my man could have done that well!

[@ZOMBEE-EATER]

Hey yes i learned something...i learned it took you 6 months to figure out it only takes 10minutes to do something right rather than 6 months doing it wrong!!!;)

[@Jim_woods]

If you still have the cuttings off the bottom I would think about using it and tucking it where you were tucking the moving blanket might make it look better from the front as well little bit more stealthy

[@JudyG745]

Lovin the curtain!

[@elidarendon-garnier1439]

Beautiful place...nice video

[@rebeccatreeseed410]

Canada is beautiful.

[@blancapagan2137]

Love disco hey am going to start van life soon am going to do a few sales and out I go

[@ritabroils6339]

Go Disco, with the hiking!!!! Hey Chorme, do you have anything up at your back windows? Front ones looking good!!!!!

[@idaspidalegs]

I love your new hair style!

[@lavernecarroll1195]

LMAO watching Disco's butt walking up the steps and his big paws walking through the mud, he look so tired when you got back, I would say, bet he slept good although he sleeps most of the time. Enjoyed the video, it is 2:30 AM right now so I think I will go to sleep now. I got a bad habit of this late night stuff. It stems from working night shift, when I was working and cannot seem to break myself from it. Maybe when I get on the road, guess I will have to wait and see. Be safe, sending hugs to you and Disco

[@joanie5278]

You talking about figs dang near killed me 😂😂😂

[@mike817fw]

Awesome easy conversion chrome next walls and floor

Hey, New Subscriber Here. Great Vid! I recently bought a 2001 Ford E250 extended cargo van with a 5.4L. I am going to spend this summer building it out and than I'm going full time nomad this fall! Would like to know what your experience has been in your E250 and what advice you might have? Disco looks like a pretty cool companion! Safe & Happy Travels on your Journey!

[@vestahall1282]

Figs. Lolol. Thank you for the video! :)

[@ramblelance4789]

I learned that I wasn't the only one who thought that dry figs look like buttholes!

[@rogeriorodriguez1212]

Thank you for sharing sir

[@iraidalopez3598]

Like it!

[@grendle81]

I thought you said in one of the earlier videos that you didn't want to do a divider curtain...

[@StevenDiPietroBeerParty]

I LOVE figs! But I'm Italian American

[@r.c.t.travels]

At around 10:57 I was rolling on the floor laughing... buttholes are yummy!!!...lol... Chrome you cracked me up brother. Stay weird buddy! Come to the states buddy and visit all your viewers from here. South Alabama here.

[@ZOMBEE-EATER]

Chrome i live in north cali. Do you ever think that after you tour canada that california would be where you start your journey in the u.s. or the east coast first?
