And I don't think the "if you don't want trouble from the police, don't break the law" is a valid argument in 2024... Also, the police seem to be more willing/able to find excuses to search vehicles much more easily than homes.

I wish to say that this is possibly the best demonstration of practical thinking resulting in a highly liveable tiny home, that I have ever seen. He can park that rig anywhere. There is a drawback. It’s only for warm climes. Other than that it’s brilliant. It’s loaded with great features that I have not seen anywhere else like the underfloor storage. Why didn’t I think of that??

[@scotttwapple]

I will call it a 3 season Vehicle. I prefer not to be. Thats why its on wheels. Add a diesel heater. It would be 4 season. It is very well insulated.

[@Rando9876]

I have a feeling you are an engineer or similar by trade. The ability to plan so well before building is impressive! did you use software that let you model it to get an idea? Did you make changes after starting certain things? because if it nailed it on the first go, thats even more amazing.@@scotttwapple

[@jttasb]

@@scotttwapple yeah he mentions that it does have a fitting for a diesel heater at 3:17 But something tells me that a lifelong resident of California is not about to change up and enjoy cold weather elsewhere :) ..but hey, who knows?

He did an awesome job with that truck, clean, organized, fully equipped and beautiful. He has a lot of “know how” concerning all the details. He’s definitely living his best life, God bless him.

[@Ann-cx3dd]

SERIOUSLY awesome!! As a San Diego native, I can see why you built this! LOVE it!

[@bee-anca236]

Ummm this is a freakin masterpiece! I love how he thought of a space for everything and it provides all the needs of a normal home! Absolutely beautiful!

[@TheSnowedinmom]

I couldn't stop saying "WOW" the entire time I was watching this. This man is incredibly amazing 😶What else is there to say, genius 🤯

[@jukio02]

Back in 2014 when I was watching tons of tiny house/van living videos, I thought about why not use one of those moving trucks. It's cool to see someone do it.

[@hollyvick181]

I love how he has the guitar etc. In glass and the glass in the bathroom door. The under floor storage is awesome.

[@pakrm2023]

Sweet! This has got to be the BEST converted box truck I've ever seen. Thank you ever so much for sharing these incredibly informative videos.

[@philipmontgomery5412]

This is easily the best designed and finished standard of box truck conversion I have yet seen, beautifully done

[@bigvrocks2480]

WOW, I''ve been looking at special builds for years, but Scott you are pretty amazing. You've got more tricks up your sleeve than a Las Vegas Magician! Great work/design! Great video!

[@Freesavh1776]

Man, this is by far the best set up I've ever seen. And to have never been plugged in, WOW! 😮

[@ListedInTheSouth]

This guy is a genius. Well thought out, beautifully designed, functional use of space.

Wonder if he was an engineer?

[@acricucci9760]

WOW! This man should win all kinds of awards for incredible creativity and use of space. Wishing him a continued happy, healthy life.😊

[@rlmartin71]

Incredibly well done. Smartest use of space I've ever seen. This guy is a design master.

[@dfreak01]

I've watched hundreds of RV & van life videos. This build is my favorite by far!

[@AndrewLloyd-h8k]

This has to be one of the smartest setups if seen so far. floor storage is so brilliant. Incredible build!!

[@sethusk]

You win, Scott. So much POWER!

[@ronaldtaylor790]

A revelation.... incredible ingenuity...floor storage/no overhead cabinets...well thought out.... one of the best van/box truck videos I've seen.

[@houstoner]

I used to drive that exact same setup box truck for work. They are ugly as sin, but are reliable, simple to drive, easy on fuel, and plenty of room in the box. I like this better than a van personally. Nice build!

[@thisismagacountry1318]

Get a Hino made by Toyota. Super reliable.

Bit of an eyesore having a boxtruck at the beach but he doesn't care because he's in it 😂

[@RRS4321]

Dewey Webber tee shirt = legit, old-school surfer. I still have mine (from the 60s) somewhere. Fabulous rig… Life is good! 🤙🏼

[@kings17court]

That is absolute brilliance. The only thing I would change is that little "window" AC unit. A mini-split AC would be much better. Then again, I live in Florida where it would be very important. Maybe he doesn't even use it that much where he lives.

[@scotttwapple]

I would like to install a couple at my house so I don't have to run my central unit all the time. I don't need to cool my hole house. At night, just the master bedroom. Truth is, 5 years ago the selection of small mini splits was not like it is today. The only place I can put the outside compressor on my RV is on the back porch. I use that area for bike and chair storage. There are many advantages of a 5,000 BTU window unit. One 450 watt unit ( ducted vertical and in the center) in my well insulated RV cools it down 20 degrees for only an average of 450 watts. It is very reliable, simple, takes up no outside space, very little inside space, and if it breaks down on the road I can pop into any Walmart (or amazon) and pick one up immediately for $140. And install it in less than one hour. My 2nd Unit has only been used a few times when I wanted to cool down real fast. And it is my own spare AC. Since it is on the floor, blows air sideways and is at one end of the RV it does not work well by itself. If I built another truck today, I would probably stick with the same simple (analog knobs) bullet proof 5,000 BTU $140 Medea window unit. AC for $140 is hard to beat. 5 years and still working perfect. California is a lot milder that Florida.

[@katashley1031]

On the beach in socal we rarely need ac.

[@hbrws813]

THIS is the best designed, most open-feeling rig I've ever seen. Excellent job.

[@jobturkey7418]

With a brain and skills like that I’m willing to bet Scott is a very wealthy man who likes to live humbly. Everything is thought out and has a great function. No wasted movement.

[@valeriesanpedro7546]

This is by far the best Ive seen...so minimal, simple, but very functional...love it!

[@scratchcratch]

The floor pantry with sliders is absolutely amazing! Very impressive, as is the whole build.

[@coffee6783]

The microwave under the bed is the one thing I couldn't live with, but the rest is amazing, even has a washing machine. Love it! 👍👍

[@TheTruthKiwi]

I guess it depends how much you microwave stuff but yeah, it isn't very practical there but was probably the only place it would fit.

[@jamesfrench7299]

If it results in a worthwhile space benefit, I'd happily live with it. Beats no microwave every time.

[@scotttwapple]

It is the only place it would fit. It is only one step from the kitchen. It does seem to bother some people. Not me.

[@michaelax3025]

the attention to detail is far better than most "professional" RVs

[@username23156]

I agree he could make a career designing RVs or mobile housing units.

[@olisk-jy9rz]

It's because RV "designers" don't have a clue what RV living people want or need. They've never been in a RV, and don't intend to. They just got their designer papers and they want to show off.

[@robertp.wainman4094]

​@@olisk-jy9rzSo true!

[@AbnerGarcia-w5r]

I’ll never look at a box truck the same awesome job!

[@ohreally8929]

Same deal for me with cargo vans. A friend did a similar type build to one of those, although not to the level here. I was blown away at how well he used space, how much was in there and how livable it was. Seemed much bigger on the inside than the outside.

[@jansmith3158]

Clever guy! This looks like a beautiful luxury beach condo without the huge investment & taxes. Love the layout, hidden floor storage & colors. This is the way to have a Happy Retirement. 🏄‍♂ & 🚐

[@darrenolson1206]

RV manufacturers should have a conversation with you. You know what we really need.

[@tirednsnarky9555]

I think I'm in love. I don't know if it's with his design skills or the truck itself, but I am in love.

[@davids2885]

Love this build! So clean in the way that everything is purposeful and tucked away. The lack of overhead storage creates so much more headroom, an absolutely brilliant use of the floor plan. Paired with the stealth factor! Amazing.
