When Aesthetics meet Function - T1N Sprinter Van Tour - MUST WATCH

Ikey has built one of, if not the best T1N Sprinter I've ever seen. Using every inch to come up with everything he needs to live comfy out of his van. Beautiful finishes, nice use of wood, products are top notch. Function meets form perfectly.

Sometimes when I come across people like Ikey I remember why I love doing what I do. Most of you watch my channel for the tours, but I post 2 videos per week. 1 being about someone else as a van tour, shop tour, product that would help someone, or anything like that. And another video about my life from DIY projects or maybe a travel vlog. For a while I've been burnt on some tours due to EVERYONE is trying to capitalize on this "vanlife" industry. I've been touring vans since the start of my channel in 2018 and I'll say it again, I tour the PERSON not the van. Ikey is the perfect example of this!! I bumped this tour up my list of tours to be released for the simple fact we need to remember the people like Ikey that inspire us daily. You, Ikey, have reminded me why I do tours weekly.

[@AmberANDAmanda9594]

You truly inspired him Jarrod!!

[@AmberANDAmanda9594]

Ikey is my nephew. He has brilliant parents and people who believed in him and his gifts. He is self taught and just applied his natural gifts and talent. I am so proud of him. Each build just gets better and better. I can’t wait for the next one.

[@cathysupp9493]

Well done! deserves being proud of him-it figures that he has a supportive family So glad he’s able to do what he obvs loves, it’s a joy to see this kind of talent blossom, creating new and wonderful things

[@AmberANDAmanda9594]

@@cathysupp9493 Thank you.

[@julianna4689]

Very inspirational, I am building my own right now (T1N) and this video is truly inspiring. It is so clean and so professional looking! Amazed

[@lisaroth7526]

This guy is gifted. Seriously gifted. I love the fact that not only does he learn from others, but *he gives them credit*. So many don't. This guy is the real deal. Thanks for a fantastic tour and introduction to an up and comer, Ikey.

[@kayroosa609]

I totally love his van, beautifully designed, very functional and just an overall amazing job. Very talented man. This is by far one of the best builds I have ever seen. Thanks for another great video.

[@Krombop.M]

hang-board is great idea, it inspired me to put a pull-up bar in that spot

[@christywilson694]

I love the videos where it's Not the same ole', same ole'! This van has 1 great idea after another, even if it was gleened from someone else! Isn't that why we van/tiny fans watch these videos?

[@Go.el_Hadam]

That is the one of the highest quality DIY vans I have ever seen. The quality and attention to detail is incredible. He Def made the right choice to become a pro builder.

[@avocado3748]

What a sweet down to earth spirit. Great craftsmanship

[@Un1234l]

Man’s actually already put together a lot of the ideas I was currently thinking of together in his van. I wanted 144 ish WB with bench, Murphy bed, kitchen, storage, wet room, but couldn’t really visualize how they’d all fit. Biggest thing wracking my brain was if I sacrifice counterspace for dedicated wet room, or opt for convertible shower. Seems the shower part is also giving him a lot of homework as well, haha

[@jackhamilton6591]

Ikey is a brilliant young man . Best of luck to him in his endeavours! Beautiful van too!

[@torriebrown9607]

He Did Amazing Job. I love that Murphy bed❤❤❤❤

[@ingloid]

I really enjoyed this tour! Ikey was fun and inspiring to watch.

[@robertduley5446]

Absolutely the best, Murphy bed, future shower, excellent usage including the gearage

[@Dreamysunshine23]

OMG he's so cute and talented... he reminds me of my son🥰... amazing job on the build💯🔥

[@ramonadefore5180]

This young man is very talented! His vision and skills are amazing!! Love his van and attention to detail, for everything that a person would need!! Thank you for sharing!!! Can’t wait to see his next build!!

[@leela4979]

Wow adding Ikeys layout on my list. This is awesome. Thanks Jarrod! 😍🤩

[@lrfox49]

Love this van and such a young man too. Very sensible design!

[@susanlewis1875]

What a creative, talented, articulate young man. I see great things ahead for him.

[@ginabrytowski3564]

Whoa! I've watched a lot of tours and this has so many things I've never seen! Brilliant! You're reaction to the blender was pure gold 😂 Thanks for sharing this!!

[@JarrodTocci]

Just jealous of Ikey’s physique 😂

[@P.Subaeruginosa]

That little garage is insanely cool

[@Chris-ut6eq]

Way to go Ikey! You have the attention to detail of an engineer. Keep on learning! Well done on this van! Love the tour Jarrod. You always find interesting vans to tour!

[@cathysupp9493]

This guy is a van prodigy! A-fab. quality build B-real ingenuity C-inspiring and inspired by others D-shares his ideas I just love all the nooks and crannies. No space left unused PS really interesting latching system with cut out handles…. Would love to know about the metal-was it bought? Did he fabricate it?

[@cathymcmahon7289]

I rarely comment, but this van…. wow. Love the design, the innovation, the style, the attention to detail. Amazing work Ikey. Thanks for the tour Jarrod and for bumping this one up ♥️

[@macnolds4145]

Absolutely genius. Brilliant.

[@eloisety1392]

That attention to detail, finesse and craftsmanship is awesome man. Seriously.

[@kaymarpee]

when you highly relate to this guys term "brain damage" in describing what it feels like to try and fit everything in. those brain damage feels!

[@VeLATAYOave]

Young dude is GOATED!

[@DiamondDustAndVerdigris]

Super impressive! The van, and the young man! Well done, Ikey. Saving this one for ideas/inspiration. Thanks J!

[@thejackofalltravels8267]

The finest T1N I have seen Wowed I wanna be like Ikey I have a 2004 T1N Freightliner dually

[@knockknockbusted]

Wow, a home run build, 10s all around. Bravo 👏👏👏

[@Chereese0808]

Pretty amazing for a 20 year old. Excellent work! 👍👍

[@nonyabizness.original]

i think it's pretty amazing for any ANY year old! first van build i ever saw that i got van envy over so bad i just apologized out loud to my own old chevy van 😁.

[@rdwilander]

Creative and Cool ....powerful tip on how to complete a beautiful build. Great interview Jarrod

[@brandyn6644]

Sick sick build…..

[@TheRoadprincess]

Nice, clean and really appealing build!

[@not_yourbusiness1820]

20 y.o. and guy already figured it out... Damn, that's something, respect. I wish I had that much sense in this age.

[@janvandenbosch3821]

Great ideas ! Congrats and nice to see a modern US RV.

[@christine9604frisco]

So fine! Hello from another Buffalonian. (Tho 50 yrs. before you were born) Great workmanship! ❤️ interesting layout!

[@thedevmachine]

Ikey your build is really awesome!

[@always.wondering.wandering]

Love, love, love this! thanks Jarrod

[@johncrisp6683]

Now this was a well done van! A plan and hard work to do it.

[@georginataylor3802]

This here is my favorite build

[@DharmaWilson]

Very Impressed with the creativity of this van. Is there a 🚿? Did you do the wiring? Looking forward to your next 🚐…

[@Dancing414]

The interviewer is getting in the way of this interview. Love this young mans well thought out, very liveable van. Beautiful!

[@Hunter357mag]

Wow, just WOW! The planning/brain tiring is amazingly detailed and well thought out. The quality of the build is obvious too. Great van, great video!

[@bushibang]

Innovative and impressive young man!

[@rudivandoornegat2371]

Excellent design! Layout, as well as interior design. Innovation (at least first time I see it in a van) are the adjustable shelves. Can't wait for the hidden shower to take shape.

[@adarodriguez8007]

Hello from Buffalo NY, I’m a fan of van life. Hopefully some day I will have one.

[@KatyInNH]

Ikey, please go to engineering, architecture or design school - you are a natural! Mechanical engineering schools would be after you with merit scholarship money - just show them your van! You are a natural engineer! The profession would benefit greatly from your talents and clear headed approach. Great tour Jarrod!

[@brucecampbell8739]

Ikey must have an Industrial Design background ? Great craftsmanship !

[@AmberANDAmanda9594]

No he doesn’t. Self taught!

[@MyraFlores]

Beautiful design

[@lawsonmadden4635]

That is an insane conversion! Amazing.

[@Dan-LS]

Beautiful!

[@jennettawatkins1417]

I really like this van. However, I like this kids humbleness and his giving credit where credit is due, more!

Awesome van, the layout, the craftsmanship and the ingenuity are outstanding. Kudos.

Wow, liked this build!!

Thanks for touring this one Jarrod. Very cool build.

Loving the build!!!!! Functional and aesthetically pleasing!!!!!!

[@SouthCanadian]

Lots of neat things in this van. I like it!

[@stacynoble3909]

Okay so I can start small, and build my way to what I want exactly, I like the idea that everything had its place, and fit perfectly including the insta pot

[@AreYouMyPeople]

I'm loving Ikey! Nice tour. 👍

[@albapugh8837]

Great! Good job!

[@peterivas9691]

That is one of the nicest builds I have seen in awhile congratulations to him very nice work great ideas .

[@zenzibell]

Love this build! Random as heck: I went to Howard with an Ike Baker from NY way back in the day.

[@ikebaker330]

That would be my son. Is that Tanya bell?

[@zenzibell]

@@ikebaker330 Ike!!!!! Hey, your son is dope! I'm shopping for a van builder in the next year or so, and I might seek him out if he's available.

[@zenzibell]

@@ikebaker330 whoops! Yep, it's me!

[@BrooklynAlien]

Awesome, what a small world!

[@LilyWasHereMB]

Watched the video yesterday and forgot to comment: If not mistaken, Vanwives have an '06 T1N and it's like the Energizer Bunny. As for the build, very Tocci-ish, but in a good way😉 The floor vent is indeed a signature of Freedom Vans; nice that Ikey gave Tom & Kyleigh credit. Ikey has the right attitude, creative design ideas and build skills. Having Ikey & Co. build your van out would be a solid choice.

[@leonardcroft1467]

Hi Jarrod Nice Van Build Always Enjoy Your Videos Thanks

[@lisamillerbuchert9447]

That’s a very pretty van, great job!!!

[@Km.SiuLane007]

Amazing!!!

[@maureenblutekraus3561]

Cool build

[@AJourneyOfYourSoul]

Outstanding build. This kid has got skills!!!!

[@susanscovill6817]

WOW! This dude is off the wall crazy talented. Anyone who wants to do a van build HAS TO design it to their wants and needs. They need to watch vlog tours, pick out and redesign what they like and then build for themselves. Too many ask what design or layout they should use. Ask product advise or if you run into a how-to build something rut, fine, but design and build to YOUR needs. Jarod this is why I love your tours. Cheers from Canader eh!

[@JarrodTocci]

Thank you 🙏

[@christurcotte9695]

That’s one of the best DIY builds I’ve seen!

[@janetfeathers4128]

Extremely cool build, what a mind he has, wow.

I love it ❤

[@tqprojects1018]

one sick van

[@childofgodsfavor6909]

Great ideas for a van! Love it! I can't wait until you configure how to add a shower inside the van. A wet shower is imperative for those times you may not be at a campground or gym. Great job!

[@mariocooke5463]

superb design!

[@ToothyBeej]

Nice build. Shout out Buffalo!

[@donEvans27]

Future so bright, buy this dude some shades.

[@1cosmocat]

So we'll thought out. Wow

[@rickwilson478]

Really clean design. Like the modular garage space. What is the brand name of the drawer handles/catches

[@jerm_]

bookmarked.

[@omarbarre9540]

Hey thanks for you videos! One piece of advice, you should consider shooting in 24 FPS not 60 FPS. Your image quality will improve a whole lot, it will be easier to play on youtube, your file size will be more manageable etc... every reason to shoot 24 FPS:)

[@elizabethgigi8911]

What did he say...95% done!? I'm already thinking how awesome this build is and then he says he's not even finished yet

[@GlynTaylor]

Wow that's exactly the sliding door I'm gonna make, first time I've seen it done

[@zaynabmallory3008]

Nice!!!💕

[@ckallen1546]

Well. I don’t have anxiety now. My van will be ready this fall (notice I type that with a loose time frame). Now I feel like I haven’t asked more of myself and van! Omg. We’re under achievers.

[@MzAndrus1]

Oh my goodness ~ I totally love this setup ~ I think the only thing that I would want different is ~~~》 the garage to be able to open up from the inside ~ like an extra escape hatch ~ but other than that he really thought this out 🤩😍

[@nickpoorman]

Wow. This makes me want to start over haha

[@JarrodTocci]

Been there too 😂

[@TG-se5sk]

“U are a tall human being! How tall are you??” “5’11” lmaooooo

[@JarrodTocci]

In fairness everyone is tall compared to me 😂

[@quil10it]

Cleannnnnnn Build. Wow. That one would be easy to live in. Nice job! (should go to school to be an engineer....definitely talented).

[@P.Subaeruginosa]

I'm thinking of debating between tge nissan civillian or the Toyota coaster, leaning toward the coaster because it seems a little smaller but will still have room for a shower and toilet (both seperate and walled in with doors) maybe even a washing machine if the batteries and solar panel capacity aren't too high (cost too much)

[@robyng.2340]

Can you provide more info on the underbody fan, thanks
