Stealth Chevy Hightop Camper Van With Shower & Toilet - Full Time Vanlife

[@TinyHomeTours]

This $15k stealth camper van build is a perfect example of getting on the road on a budget. Did I mention he knocked this out in 6 weeks!?

[@happycamperinc.]

Its stealth. With solar and storage on roof . And windows on side. Clearly visible . And its stealth . I mean anything for a title. Come on now

[@GallagherTara]

The $15k doesn't include the van itself, correct?

[@groob33]

Where is the shower?

[@CarrieP1981]

@@groob33 The cabinet across from the kitchen has a shower head in it that comes out. You'd shower outside, or I've also seen people use a large tub/bucket, small kiddie or pet pool, portable shower pan, etc to stand in if they showered inside.

How much did he buy the van

[@moneybee]

Clean, cool, and functional. Usually you can only choose 2.... AND THIS GUY GOT ALL 3! Great build!

[@FPS_Xanax]

And a pantry right next to the shitter? Bruh I’m in

best chevy van build i've seen yet!...by far. this is a legit tiny home. the high-top makes all the difference. *RESPECT!*

That's my boy right there! I know him from middle school. That's a home to be proud of bro. Excellent job! Him and my friend Sheila got me inspired to live on the road. I'm starting my build this winter. Thanks Dylan!

Thanks Izzy! Much love to ya. See ya when im back on LI!

[@gungfuriceboy]

for me...if 'living' Full time in a VAN...the High Top...is such a 'LUXURY'!! To Stand Up STRAIGHT inside is AWESOME!!..$15G's.... WOW!!!

[@smallfootprint2961]

Very cool setup. I agree. If you can make a living; support yourself and your hobbies, why not. Beautiful area. Thanks for showing us how you did it.

[@adventureswithgnomie6553]

He did a quality build vs a cheap build. That's going to make a huge difference for him later on. He won't be trying to rebuild or constantly be fixing things because he did it right to begin with.

[@karenmessinger9609]

I love Alaska. Used to ride motorcycles in the Yucon, Alaska, Canada & I've been to Seward a few times. Talk about memories! Great van setup & it's great he gets to go there.

[@Bryan-jd7os]

"Unless you shower everyday" truer words never been spoken! Lived in my van for 6 years! Shower definitely NOT mandatory everyday! Nice build! Im looking at a Chevy. Ive had many Ford Econolines. Im looking at this exact van Chevy 3500 extended. 🙂

[@stevesentit5001]

Tiny home tours I have been following your channel for a while and this is the first time I believe I can do it the express is perfect for me and this is the best video representing what is perfect FOR ME. I’m am grateful for your channel to many more trips and adventures love live and give back thanks guys I love this community

[@62hotrodvair]

Very nice design , space-saving slide out fridge and covered when not in use stove. i have seen very few tiny mobile homes made this good. excellent job !!

[@petewentriding7679]

Really glad to see another Chevy extended hightop. I got one in august. Im gonna camp this winter then finish the inside. Already have very very similar ideas about the build. Great to see it all fits.

[@nisley5276]

Love your van build! Love all the wood left natural color. That's what I want to do with my van. I'm just starting my work on my van... Colorado winter weather is getting in the way of taking care of rust spots at the moment. Trying to find a work around.

[@ask_why000]

His site is a great idea for seasonal workers.

[@joakimhjelm-svennesen8984]

Nice van build I must say. Usually I’m like where’s the bathroom or toilet area. Didn’t think he could have space for it in such a “small”van. And I totally get he got it - especially if he’s stealth camping in a city

[@margemargie9891]

This is the choice I'd look for. I think it could be a half cost of Sprinter or more less. Enjoy the great trip!

[@CarrieP1981]

His van is beautiful, homey and practical. Also, the woodwork is gorgeous! 👍 I can't believe they did the build out in 6 weeks!

[@ozmanfidaar6311]

You don't need the inverter to be on in order to charge your phone. Installing a 12v USB charger would work just fine and saves power by not turning on the inverter. Awesome build!

[@TJ-mc8uh]

Great job on this Van build, everything has its place. The bear claw is perfect art for your van. Congrats on your new business!

I am well used to getting what I pray for ~ like a miracle healing from fibromyalgia years ago, after the doctors said there is NO CURE FOR IT, after just selling a piece of property TODAY for $100,000 more than it's assessed for, like praying for my granddaughter's leg to grow out when she was born with one leg 2 inches shorter than the other ~ now both legs are the same length without braces, surgery or any thing other than GOD !

[@uber2tuber]

Beautiful van! Great job on the buildout and design. I also have a Chevy hightop and am wondering ... did you put the windows in the fiberglass top or did it come with them? ty!

[@dylventures]

Put them into the fiberglass top!

[@SN-qu2gz]

Nice job! What is behind the angled backsplash? Is it storage?

[@crystalcurrie2393]

Gets up to 52 where I live. The heat nearly kills me so I shower twice morning and night lol

[@dylventures]

nice

[@xToddmcx]

My only complaint is, this is immediately recognizable as an RV, so you might as well not bother trying to stealth it. Put some windows in if you like. The first place I look when I'm wondering if a van is an RV is the roof. Cargo box, solar panels, fan covers, AC, awning, these things scream RV. Even if you don't have every one of them.

[@91vihant]

Hey can you tell me about the roof rack? I'm about to convert my chevy express to a high top and would like to still have a roof box like yours!

[@bdwelle43]

nice rig!!

[@janneal9156]

Yep thought I might drop by ............

[@butchmanns8968]

Do you think I could do that on a fiberglass top. I want my three solar panels on the roof. The roof is not flat and the is a 16 inch rise from the gutter on the van. Looking for help. Live in salt lake.

[@LauraWilsonAnderson]

I love your layout! I think it's the best I've seen. I just sold my Class C (never really liked it - too big) and my next goal is to customize a van. Hopefully soon! :-)

[@NicholasMatteo-p3b]

Hi , question: what is the high of the fiberglass top ??? It looks like 16 inches to me. Thank you nicky

[@roberttretsch8794]

Great video, thanks for sharing. Quick question: have you experienced any road handling issues at highway sppeds and if you have what have you done to mitigate it. My E150 has a 24" bubble top and I am having a helluva time on teh road at speeds in excess of 50. Appreciate any thing you mayy have to offer.

[@mmac4047]

Check alignment, and ball joints, shocks, check tire pressures, check wheel balance. Those will make hard to manage.

[@dylventures]

Haven't had any issues.

[@butchmanns8968]

Hi. Is the top of your van fiberglass. If so how did you connect your solar panels. I’m afraid to drill into my fiberglass top.

[@DebZaragoza]

It looks to be fiberglass. If you look closely at the shots of the outside of the van, he has the panels and carrier attached on the sides, and to the cross bars - versus the top of the van. His fan looks to be the only thing installed on the top. That might be a good way to go if you're worried about future leaking issues.

[@dylventures]

Hey! My topper is reinforced w ½ inch plywood on the roof and 2 2x4s on the sides. Perfect for drilling into
