I love this so much. It's amazing to see what you can do with so little space. Thank you so much for sharing your video. I'm looking to make a cube camper myself as I don't think I'll ever own my own home, alas I'm lookin got to making my own cosy corner !
I have a 2011 Nissan cube and I’m so glad to see someone found a way to make it livable! I really struggled with how to make a bed that I could lay down and I’m only 5 foot three but it was difficult. It never dawned on me to lower the passenger seat like you have. It’s also great to see a woman. I hear from Bob Wells that the majority of the van living people are women!
Thank you! Yes, I"m about 5'4" and have plenty of room. Only downside is the reclined seat takes up storage space. Also, I'm not a FTer, just taking trips as of now, but never say never :)
@@traceyweiss8271 I may become a full timer but not for a little while yet. I found a place where I can stay temporarily. Friend of mine is going to China so he’s going to let me rent his house for really really cheap.
Thank you for this video I have a 2012 Cube and I love being on the road but wasn't sure how do a build or setup for long drives in this wagon 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm currently in the process of converting my Cube into a lil camper so I can travel for scuba. I LOVE how you did the bed, and the way you did the storage shelf-to-table is so clever. I'm definitely stealing your bed idea. It's been two years since you posted this video. Is there anything you would've changed/done differently now that you've had more experience living in it? 👀 I don't expect a reply, but I'd love any additional advice or tips if you have them.
Amazing design, I like the storage area above the cooler!! Brilliant usage of the area above your feet too!! Stealth camping in a Cube, ultimate stealth! Safe travels
I have a 2012 6 speed Cube and I love it. I'm 70 and I love going on road trips. I always loved going camping but now, I'm more of a hotel kind of guy. Your Cube camper conversion is genius! If I were 10 years younger I'd copy your efforts in a heartbeat. You seem to have thought of everything. Have you made other videos of actually camping in your Cube? Even though this video is a year old, I'm going to subscribe so I can find out. WELL DONE!!!!
watching here in the Philippines,i wish that kind of car will be available here also.i believe that it has smaller engine to offset the higher cost of commodities right now specially the fuel products.many thanks for your video
Looking at the Cube or a 04-06 Scion XB because Honda Elements are ridiculously overpriced right now. The floor is much flatter on the Cube from the looks of it.
I'm curious tracey: *Did you take out the back shelf on the bed side?* I have camped a TON in my Element & getting in & out the back door is pretty damn handy. Thinking about buying one of these on Saturday. If so I'll be doing a conversion like yours except with solar. Storage only on the driver's side. Planning on counterweighting the load on the L side with batteries for solar + other heavy stuff under the wood floor on the R.
this is very insiping and neet! I would love to have a minicamper like that, I own an even older nissan cube 2002 anz10, but he's to small for a built like this :)
Did you end up painting the wood? There’s something that’s been haunting me. When we go to the SWAPMEET in our cube to sell stuff my wife sleeps sideways in the back she’s 5’7” and she says she falls asleep just fine. So my thought is why don’t you just put the bed sideways?
I did not paint the wood, I just put a urethane finish on it for protection. Your wife must sleep curled up. I like to sleep on my back and at 5'4" I do not fit sideways.
