Oh to be young again and be able to sleep on a futon mattress without waking up feeling like a cripple. Hmm maybe my waterbed years were a contributing factor. Love the people you meet in your travels

[@FnAVanLife]

hahaah right it does help to be young and not have any back issues.

[@LeRicetteDiMami]

Awesome video my friend 😍👏🏼

[@FnAVanLife]

Thank you so much!!!

[@carmelita9396]

My van is a little too cozy I think. We all loooooovvvveee being inside of it. Especially parked on the beach eating pizza or stargazing while in bed with the back doors open. We have a rig for showers inside and toilet with a mini kitchen, and of course an outside barbeque. We just loooove the van. I have Covid right now, and the coziest place to be is in the van in the forest. 💜

[@FnAVanLife]

Sounds like you have everything you need in that little cozy space Carmelita! Hope you're feeling better soon! Maybe you can pass the time with some of our Mexico videos, you can start making a list of all the places that van can take you when you're all better!!!! xo Alex

[@RidwanMA]

so good beautiful nice sharing

[@FnAVanLife]

Thank you! Cheers! hope you stick around for more vanlife content.

[@WizzRacing]

This guy is a hoot..It never ends.. So true...

[@FnAVanLife]

He has a podcast go check him out. His is called Nomad happy hour. And ours is anchor.fm/fnavanlife

[@nomadbrad503]

i love that nothing is strapped down! your such a rebel jon.

[@FnAVanLife]

Jon Dean is a rebel without a cause haha

[@faceinthecrowd5810]

We van camp with our 1997 gmc high top. Did a semi-gut, leaving whatever was helpful, added a front seat swivel, a roof vent. I have found a simple tarp solution for an awning and we have a Clam Escape 11x11 pop up yurt-ish thing. It all works great for our vacations, not giving up our house, too many tools to ever want to part with. Everything for camping is of modular design, when not camping the van is a empty box.

[@FnAVanLife]

George this is so awesome! I love that you've found a way to make the van work for when you're on vacation and also when you're not. Sounds like the best of both worlds. Plus, you don't need much to explore the great outdoors!!! We're currently building out a new tiny home on wheels in a 2019 ProMaster. This will be our full time living situation so we're putting lots of thought and care into the design and build. We want to make a beautiful home! We're showing the build week by week on our KZbin channel so we hope you'll come check it out. Cheers! Alex

[@on_another_level5661]

Cool video, guys. It's rad how many interesting people you guys meet on your travels.

[@FnAVanLife]

We feel really lucky to meet so many cool people!

[@Knightrayn]

I would love deets on the Walmart cabinet and the metal frame! Love it. Nice setup.

[@FnAVanLife]

Oh man Knightrayn, that's gonna be tough since we filmed this like 3 years ago. I wonder if you could reach out to Jon Dean on Instagram or FB and he might know. @jondeandayz

[@JUSTINANDCHRISTINA]

Thanks for the Van Tour... Always interesting to see what others have done with their Vans... Safe Travels...😀👍

[@FnAVanLife]

I'm always so curious to see what other people have built!

[@FitnesswithMeg]

This is so fun! I like hearing other people's perspectives!

[@FnAVanLife]

Our favorite part of van tours. learning about the people.

[@cathietonkin5577]

It’s awesome....it fits ‘his’ needs! Nice comfy home!

[@FnAVanLife]

totally! that's the best part of building your own tiny home, it's made just for you :)

[@TomtilLetsplays1987]

Fantastic video! Awesome stuff! 😀❤️

[@FnAVanLife]

Thank you so much!!!

[@unpavedexplorer338]

Hello, this was a cool van conversion. Dude has an interesting story moving from an apt to a van. I like this series of videos. Take Care and Keep Exploring The Outdoors.

[@FnAVanLife]

Thanks so much! I’m glad your enjoying the content and meeting the cool friends we find along the way

[@AnnDavid26]

Clever idea......Love the tour......Great share, my friend

[@FnAVanLife]

[@FnAVanLife]

Thank you so much!!!

[@LenlenVlog]

Hello maam nice car I'm here again... Greatings from brinei ..

[@FnAVanLife]

Welcome back!!! Nice to see you again we hope all is well.

[@JRR31984]

6:01. I love how this guy described his job. How they should basically hire RV go'ers for certain jobs and locations especially.

[@FnAVanLife]

totally!!! we're so versatile and movable and happy to just work for a while and then travel!

[@TalkingWithBob]

Really cool

[@FnAVanLife]

Thanks so much Bob!

[@lightdark00]

I haven't seen public sinks that a gallon bottle would fit. But when parks have a spigot that's not too low...

[@FnAVanLife]

I kind of like how Mexico has water fill stations everywhere. It's so handy!

[@tc3imagery]

Nice build! What are those brackets/legs/braces that go from your roof-edge rain gutters to above the high top, to hold your solar panels? Where did you get those? Thanks!

[@FnAVanLife]

Sorry TC3 we have no clue, you can reach out to John Dean on social media and see if he knows but he's not in that rig any more either, he got a box truck a few years back. Good luck!!!

[@FrontenacArchClimbing]

Great video! I have almost the exact same van (99) and am looking for roof racks that attach to the rain gutters. Would you be able to send me the link to where you got those? Thanks!

[@FnAVanLife]

You'll have to go right to the source and talk to the man who owned the van himself! Find Jon here: instagram.com/jondeandayz/

[@DebRhynes]

How tall a person can stand upright I'm this model with hightop. Too cool...thanks for showing this one.

[@FnAVanLife]

Not exactly sure but I'm 5'2 and couldn't stand up. 🙃

[@janebrommet7942]

Hi John, cold not find you at FB so i put my question here. Where did you buy your outdoor carpet at the intrance of your tent?

[@FnAVanLife]

He would be Jon Dean on Facebook - that might be why!!

[@DreamingOutloudRVing]

Great van tour. Enjoy you videos thanks for sharing.

[@FnAVanLife]

Thanks so much for watching!!!

[@sundaytaybron9243]

Nice! where did you get your roof rack or what did you use to make it. I have a chevy express also.

[@FnAVanLife]

This is a friends van that we did the tour for you would have to reach out to him. Check the description of the video for his Instagram. Hope you find your answer and thanks for watching the tour.

[@gracecallowayable]

Awesome!!!👠🚌👠

[@FnAVanLife]

Yesssss! We love checking out everyones life style!

[@melnugent2213]

Cozy! 😌

[@FnAVanLife]

Totally!!

[@crawford323]

What considerations are given to objects moving during a moving accident? A can of soup flying through the sir at 20 mph would hurt like hell.

[@FnAVanLife]

oh heck yeah!!!! Everything in a van really should be strapped down/drilled into the walls. You really don't want anything out that could become a hazard. Plus it's a good idea to put up a barrier behind the driver so if something were to fly it would it that wall and not their head.

[@H2Dwoat]

Hi, cool dude.

[@FnAVanLife]

John Dean is a G

[@on_another_level5661]

Also, is the podcast "Nomad Happy Hour"?

[@ThisVanGirlThatVanGuy]

Yep

[@FnAVanLife]

That’s the one!

[@companycompounds2470]

Could you link me that rack and panels

[@FnAVanLife]

The rack was custom made from a welding company in Oregon. The panels are Yeti, he got them a long time ago so this would be equivilant: amzn.to/3qY2u2o amzn.to/3cKyYrS

[@leilal8053]

It used 2B called....being a "Drifter".....rootlesss....

[@FnAVanLife]

Love it :)

[@carmelita9396]

My home LaPine. :)

[@FnAVanLife]

such an awesome place to call home!

[@sadidiker]

🙌🙌🖒🖒😙😙

[@FnAVanLife]

Thank you!

[@livinginthenow]

Whoever it is that keeps telling new KZbinrs they need music running ALL THE WAY through their videos isn't doing anyone a favor. It's annoying and frustrating to try to watch a video and the music keeps going while people are talking. It's not necessary. It does not improve the quality of the video. It's not what makes people subscribe. Please... Just stop. [ *closes tab 1/4 of the way through the video and proceeds to watch another Chevy Express High Top video that is less annoying* ]

[@FnAVanLife]

I point of being a new youtuber is learning. It is part to the experience. This is an older video hope you find our new ones much better. 😀

[@gaklotz]

MUSIC WAS NOT IMPRESSIVE. IF YOUR GONNA PLAY YOUR MUSIC SO LOUD THEN SPEAK UP THIMBS DOWN

[@FnAVanLife]

Sorry George, this is a pretty old video of ours. I like to think we've gotten better at editing since then. Its all learning!

[@nina-maeforde3269]

A stoner like me I bet

[@FnAVanLife]

lol not gonna say no... not gonna say yes :P
