DIY Box Truck Tiny Home Conversion - Simple Living on the Road

[@FusionKush]

The dude was cool and chill. What I learned is that if he can do then I can do it. Great guy and great video. Can't wait to see the next one.

[@TinyHomeTours]

Couldn't agree more!

[@hannn4063]

Ofc you can!

[@HeroAntagonist]

I think that was the most honest van life tour I've ever seen. Respect

[@MiCHELLEannSPIRESmasterminedAO]

Amen...love this guy! You too😜🫂🥰

[@RyanSGood]

Ri! I met Ri while out traveling in Arizona, he was the most chill, caring, down to earth guy I've ever met. Awesome to see him out there doing his thing and living it up!

[@tbray]

love this guy - completely genuine, seems to have absolutely no ulterior motives. looks like a great person to have as a friend. love his home too - such freedom is priceless.

[@hannn4063]

He's has such a kind heart, so honest and love simplicity. He proud of his build, giving us another perspective of even if you done bad, it doesn't matter, still it yours, nothing to worry about it.

[@maryfolks9368]

Not even halfway through this video and I'm already so impressed with this guy. He's got some great suggestions too. Another great build and video. Thanks guys

[@jrstrande4890]

This guy is awesome. Very cool and very good attitude. "Always hope you have company", freaking slayed me!

[@Mirtle_Tirtle]

Slayed me too - I got the giggles when he said that!! (And I’m old enough to be his mother 😂😂😂) And gotta love a man who’s got his workbench wherever he goes - a business card on wheels. Gold! 😎🇦🇺😅

[@JonniD]

This is a MUCH more functional and practical set-up than most of the prettier, fancier vanlife interiors we see. 👍

[@katrinasheets2997]

Super cool guy....and such pretty eyes! Great little home and he even has a little bathroom! Happy traveling!!

[@alottalogic]

Mad respect brother for the deepest and most honest life lesson and tour of your home ever seen.

[@kendclife7913]

Seems like a down-to-earth man; he's enjoying the good life. Thank you for sharing.

[@LostIn207]

Oh the world needs more souls like this guy. Love this

[@nelsonoliva2119]

You always hope you have company😂.. awesome video bud , good luck to you on this adventure man.. godspeed..

[@SweetStuffAustin]

Wow! Your seem wise beyond your years. I LOVE all your advice and your laid back attitude. I love how you see challenges as fun! Doing what you can with what you have and those money saving tips are right on! Hope i run into you at a camp fire when i get my rig set up. Safe and happy travels! 💜

[@deborahstone9696]

Enjoyed the fact he was super helpful. No lets talk about things most people would know too.just the essentials. Perfect

[@MrMountainchris]

Simple but a very livable and nice space to call home! I'm very jealous.

[@jasonbryer4249]

This is a dude I need to meet and buy him a a beverage of his choice. He is just an honest person with a no BS attitude. I love the seat with the BF Goodrich tire laser etching. That is so unique, but ultra intelligent. Outstanding video!

[@Mirtle_Tirtle]

“Buy” him a beverage of his choice? Maybe “brew” would be better 😂😎🇦🇺

[@craftyourwaytopeace]

Love this guy! What a down to earth guy with really a great build!

[@trueblue2892]

He seems cool to just be around. Like one of those ppl that just feel good to have in your space. Not even necessarily to do anything with. Idk, my fellow social anxiety sufferers/fighters may get it lol 😊👍🏾

[@westcoastwonderers1060]

OMG I love this so much! I have a 35 foot Thomas international bus, an e350 club wagon high top, and a minivan. Someone vandalized both my bus and e350, so I am living in my minivan. I love your home!!

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

Really like your build. Simple and good ideas. Those cabinet doors were a great find. The commercial sink and counter is awesome. You seem like such an honest and nice young man. Thanks for sharing your rig with us.

[@5thdimension625]

Love the sink he found in the bushes at the scrap yard. He’s super cool and humble which makes him doubly likable.

[@bonniestillwater56]

Great video. A pleasure to watch. Very nice young man. I appreciate the helpful tips he gave and his encouragement.

[@mges1651]

This is true Ri, down to earth, chill guy. Super proud of our son.

[@scherrigreene5602]

Nice. Realistic about expectations.

[@pintsizegrfx]

Love the Midwesterners! ❤

[@kbechtel33]

He gave a lot of good advice.

[@annepoitrineau5650]

great rig, well done with the mattress ventilation.

[@pattilundgren7627]

Absolutely love and agree with another's comment -- "The dude was cool and chill." Sounds like a guy I'd like to hang out with. And resourceful! Oh, my!

[@jeanwalker7005]

Great job with your rig and the video, Ri. Head south and come see us, cuz!

[@dustinjanusheske8073]

Heck yeah Ri!! Keep on doing you bro!

[@raysun2be]

Nice build! He's very creative in sourcing items for his build, saving $$ and a few less items headed to the landfill.

[@denisephillips9269]

Always amazes me how items can be found to repurpose....it really saves $$$. Thanks for all the helpful info. Safe travels. 🧏‍♀️🙋‍♀️

[@sheraldownham9178]

Great video love your build good luck in your journey

[@angelajenkins]

I really enjoyed this video. I could follow him on social media. Very easy interview.

[@Psychobob2213]

I met Ri while traveling, nice guy, we had a great conversation. Really lives the attitude he displayed in the video, learn from everything and that’s the fun part 🙂

[@robertdragoff6909]

A great guy…. At first I thought he was from Canada, but he’s actually from Wisconsin! I like his resourcefulness and ingenuity. I think got most of what he needed for free… There is a flaw in his rig. He doesn’t have inside access to the cab. But otherwise, it looks well made.

[@HugoGarcia-mm2uy]

I think you did great Brother 👍

[@blydnhvghn]

I like this guy.

[@katherinekelly5380]

So cool - like those concession stand cabinets !

[@viltfjall]

Great guy with a nice rig

[@tripletgirl2484]

Enjoyed the tour. Good tips on building.

[@myhillslife27]

great story, nice guy

[@hopegrijalva8984]

Love the attitude! Great build!

[@BlackRiverFallsPL]

So cool, been a year since Ri came to our library to talk.

[@bevtrue6937]

Looks like a good setup. Every rig you see that seems to work well is like this. Grab what you can use and make it work. Great job.

[@nadzya22]

Nice, honest, man. Cool rig. Comfortable ✌🤎🤟🤞🤙👍🤜🤛🏾

[@CharlesButler]

Great video and awesome home. I was thinking about getting a box truck and converting it, but than i decided to switch to a 7x14 cargo trailer and converted that. so I can park it and go to town or do what ever without towing it every where.

[@hannn4063]

Good ideas bro..

[@mlmora09]

I love this dude

[@julieharris1872]

Nice guy and great set up. Well done

[@hickorytech2005]

You really are a cool guy, Ri. I'm glad to see you on the Tube. You're always welcome to stop and stay at our house in Faribault, MN. Big driveway with power and water. See ya later. Say "hay" to your folks.

[@ppoe2574]

Love your home

[@theresamnsota3925]

Interesting…I live about 30 minutes from some of the best known cranberry bogs here in Wisconsin. I’ll have to keep an eye out for this van.

[@rigesicki5227]

Hello a few up in the Warrens Mather area. Hopefully will be up next harvest again.

[@theresamnsota3925]

@@rigesicki5227 yep, I’m not far from Warrens. Awesome job on your truck.

[@rigesicki5227]

Thank you

[@McCucumber]

I also live in a box truck and have that same RV stove 0:57.

[@dianna8626]

Great job. Thank you on the tips were to look for materials. Have fun with your new journey.

[@janesenkyr3125]

Alot of great ideas. I love the humble knowledge of the learning. I know the placement of your batteries have to be in front of or close to the axel. As that weight too far back will cause fish tailing.

[@Candies1Creations]

He is so precious ❤️

[@IceLynne]

It looks good!

[@suesorensen2440]

Great DIY box van! Love his simple, yet wise, perspective on how to live out of whatever vehicle one finds themselves in. Being a Wisconsinite, his manner of speaking doesn't quite sound like Wisconsin. Somewhat similar to a people from the South East.. the Carolinas or Tennessee perhaps.

[@Brigand231]

Cheeseheads unite! I dunno, I thought I heard a hint of Yooper mixed in with his drawl. Edit to add: There're a lot of folks in my area with a similar last name, but they say it quite differently.

[@alphatruckhouse8223]

Well Cool ! , easy come ... easy go ...Nice🤟~peace~

Wonderful soul.

Well kind of cool he goes to Wisconsin for cranberry Harvest I'm from Florida. But lived in Warrens Wisconsin for a few years that's the cranberry capital little town of 300 and some people that ends up being over 100,000 during cranberry Fest

[@rigesicki5227]

This Ri I grew up in Warrens area. Helped at Cran fest many times. Thank you for the kind words.

[@_________________7899]

He reminds me of the cop from TrueBlood

[@francineroot-adler7205]

Is a CDL necessary to drive this size truck? Good to know, please!( I was a professional long distance driver)

[@rigesicki5227]

No CDL needed only 12k and registered as a RV. The truck turns and handles better than a van.
