We have been "house-living" during the pandemic for this very reason. We rely so much on coffee shops, our climbing gym, and restaurants and once the pandemic hit we knew we couldn't live full time in the bus/van. In the meantime, we have been renting out both vehicles to people who want to park outside of their folks' houses and social distance, and to people who want to get to out of the city without relying on hotels and restaurants.

Thanks for the video. I liked that you guys state the cost of stuff. Very rarely people state it, might be they're embarrassed LOL. Anyways you have a source for others to get a box van too? I'm thinking either a good video or a user group. I'm thinking something where you learn which machines are the most reliable and trouble free. Maybe the expected life of different models out there. Man something like that van where you couldn't see the van in person or inspect it. I'm betting that was a pretty good deal. How did you guys learn about acquiring box vans? Oh yeah, the artwork was awesome!

Housing has been for a long time been out of the reach of many, at least it has been for me, and this could help!

We attached 1/8th inch ply to the ceiling, and then used an adhesive spray lots and lots of staples. It took a long time and about 5 people (at least for the bus).

Experiment building isn’t all you need to know, vehicles is something you need to research. The 2008 to 2010 Ford is a 6.4 diesel which are the biggest junk Ford has created in 30 years. Don’t believe me, google it. They are junk motors. It will go down again, do not go with 6.4 at least 6.0 can take upgrades. And early 6.7 had injector problems (1000’s of dollars ) Just do your homework. Either way I enjoyed your creativity
