Nissan NV200 No Build Van Build Conversion - Simple Inexpensive Stealth Micro Camper Conversion
When most people think about moving into a van to start van life they think everything has to be perfect. The build, the van, the experience. However after traveling for 4 years as a tent camper I transitioned into my Nissan NV200 Cargo Van with a lot of questions that I wanted to answer before putting a full time camping set up install into the van. I opted to do a NO BUILD VAN BUILD to help me best figure out layout options, ideas of storage and overall need. This layout allows me to move things about with ease, take in and out things that I decide will or will not be needed and more so allowed me to transition into the van immediately instead of waiting and making decisions I might not agree are best over time. A no build van conversion is a very attainable way for anyone interested in van life to start out! I have now traveled 10,000 miles in this van, moving things about changing things with every trip I take and now I know what I will and will not be needing to change in the future of my adventures!! Come check out my van today and I hope some of these things are helpful to you at home who are thinking about doing a van build but don't know where to start!!

Since being in the space more I have made some upgrades.. but I did them confidently as a result of being in the van for so long without all the extras. I think finding your space is so important and then making it your own more permanent space so you can truly be able to enjoy it long term!

@BunnyPlaysHere
@BunnyPlaysHere 2 года назад
@@MaryNAdam Typically whenever I travel I try to travel with the weather the insulation does it become near as much of a problem when you do that. I have various methods that I have since added to my van to keep me either warmer or cooler depending on where I am should I be passing through some of those zones that are exactly the most friendly. I think it’s all about how you perceive and make your situation. Well insulation is a great thing it also takes up a lot of valuable real estate within such a small van. It does make it a little bit more of a choice to have or not have it then it would in a larger unit. For me it works out pretty well right now.

I will eventually be needing to do some additional measures for long term stay in the van. A roof vent for example will be necessary when making it better for 4 season use. That will take away its cargo only resale, but I purchased this with the intention of creating a safe space for me when I travel and that will be something I will continue doing for many years. But starting out that was one of my thoughts also if I decided it was not something I did think would have long term potential.

I am six feet tall and can stretch fully out. If I fold the drive seat up I have a few inches to spare but more than 6, I agree would be tight. I use a down sleeping bag for the same reason as above. When I have shore power I have a small heater that heats such a small space quickly. Otherwise It's like a tent: get dressed quickly.

Just sold my RAM ProMaster City, but I can suggest to anyone pulling a cold night, go back to being a kid, and make a blanket fort. Rig some line the length of the bed directly over the left and right sides of the bed. Buy a fluffy style blanket (I got a good one at Walmart) that is full size and pass it up over one of the lines, then across and down the other side. You're making a tunnel that you'll sleep in, and ideally the blanket won't even touch you when sleeping, so once asleep you'll forget it's there. I was outside Yellowstone when it hit 36 degrees at night, but it was 60+ in my blanket tunnel from body heat alone. I do have floors, walls and ceiling insulated, but nothing for the doors on either side or the back. But doing a blanket fort like that makes the biggest difference, because it removes the discomfort of your face being cold since you can easily get a sleeping bag that will keep your body warm.

I have really been able to push this van and have great mileage.

@@gapeach51170 I feel the same way about a lot of the videos that I’ve seen they have beautiful builds but a lot of times they have spent a lot of money or they already come into building it with some kind of idea as to what works best for them I was starting out as a tent camper who traveled in my car so having space was both a blessing and a curse I was excited because I could carry more things but nervous because it’s still not a super large vehicle and I didn’t want to overwhelm myself in the space and make myself regret the choices I had made by doing a build. I’ve been really excited to see how things have been able to move and how I have paired down items and added things over the past few months to really get it where I know what I would like to do for my next step when I do put things inside of it that are more permanent. All the same it has been a journey that has been super exciting with the no build build and I look forward to continuing that journey more confidently now because of how I started out! I’m so happy that my video was Helpful that’s really why I started my channel to show people different places that you can go on various budgets and that you don’t always have to break the bank to be able to have an amazing lifestyle or experience!

It has been a wonderful solution to so many things. I started my channel in order to show affordable and economical travel options to encourage people to get out in adventure more no matter what their financial situation is. I am a firm believer that what you do with your life can greatly increase your quality as a whole. So the van kind of naturally fit into that! I do have some upgrades which will cost a bit more along the way however I know for a fact that they will be something that I will be using Now as opposed to before whenever I would’ve been blindly purchasing just because of FOMO. LOL. I think that’s the main thing that I learned from the snow build build is that you can add things as you go as opposed to having to have everything all up front and those things will be more meaningful and purposeful. Thank you so much for watching the video and I hope that you continue to do so as I share not only my van but adventures that I hope others will check out and maybe potentially go on!

Thank you so much I really wanted to focus on the space itself since it is smaller and make sure that I made the most out of what I have before cluttering it with things that I may or may not need. Moving from being a tent camper and traveling in my car I have so much more space but on the flipside of that it can become a little bit overwhelmed if you just start putting things in that you think you might need. So one by one I have introduced each individual item that I mentioned in the video and made sure that it has function so that it can stay in the van.

Yes!! I did tent camping for quite some time it came with a unique set of challenges to work though. Rain was always a huge issue and in some areas I was not permitted to stay without hard sides because of some of the wildlife. Additionally I was always having to deal with the over crowding of my stuff in the car on lengthy trips. But now I have a place for everything and much more space. I am much safer in general with this current set up and I think that really sets my family at ease when I am on the road.

It opens up the possibilities of staying in more difficult areas with weather and terrain and also I am now able to stay a bit more bear aware...which was a huge deal for me in the PNW.

Time is more important than money always and so starting is a big step!

So glad I found this video, I just purchased a NV200 (dark blue) to convert. Last year staying at home for months and months I saw several people on Instagram who were converting their vans and suvs and traveling since their jobs were allowing them to be more remote. I looked everywhere and couldn't find a suv I felt comfortable with the space in and started looking at vans. I kept seeing large ones and thought that would be so much work and money to get where I wanted to go and then found a channel with a girl in the UK that had a NV200 she converted. She never shared any videos but her one about converting it and so I was bummed. But I still thought I could do it. Now that I have my van I am looking again and wanted to see if there were other van specific channels and your video was the first to pop up. I love your simplistic design which is easy to achieve. I can do this. And I see you have other videos so I will be checking all of them out also before getting started.

Super exciting! Welcome to van life! I was kind of in the same boat of thinking that a large one would be nice but it is a huge expense and even bigger expense to convert so I knew that that would not be something that would be in my particular cards lol additionally I looked at the fuel economy of the NV 200 and that warranty that it has and it was so appealing I couldn’t pass it up. Definitely wanted to do something that was simple on the inside until I could figure out exactly what I would like to permanently have in there and in doing so it allowed me a lot of flexibility. You mentioned that you saw that I have a playlist definitely encourage you to check out some of those videos of some of the changes that I’ve made I will be continuing to make additional changes as I go to make the set up exactly how I want for the long term however getting started it’s all about movement and being able to function in Your space comfortably. I would definitely get it set up for the short term first and take it out and experiment and play with the different items inside and then as you do that you’ll find that some of the things that you thought you needed you absolutely don’t and some of the things that you never thought you needed you probably do lol welcome to the channel!

Also I post new adventure videos every Tuesday Thursday and Sunday! And new van life videos every Saturday. The band videos focus on what’s going inside, the different items I use regularly and as I complete my projects I will start doing van lifestyle videos on that particular day.

Thank you sooo much!!! I love to dabble in makeup though I don't share much if any of that on the channel!! The van is a way to make adventures more doable... it allows me the freedom to roam more and find the more hidden gems to share them.. so I will be taking everyone on some fun adventures!!

How exciting to see your travel vehicle! My husband and I have seen numerous vans in the area as people pass through and have day dreamed about what it would be like to get out and rent one for a few weekends. Most of the companies who do rentals however have RVs and not vans in our area, and that is simply too large for just the two of us. Looking forward to living vicariously through you on your channel with your van.

Check into EscapeCamperVans... I am not sure if they have rentals in that area yet or not but I feel like they were one of the companies expanding eastward.... Until then you are welcome to come along for the ride in my van on my channel anytime...lol

I like your train of thought on keeping it simple out of the gate and adding as you go. And you are right not everyone is the same so not everyone needs to do the same things. Subbed.
