PRO VAN BUILDER'S 20th CONVERSION | Why he chose a BOX VAN OVER A SPRINTER for the PERFECT LAYOUT 

Van, Bus or Box Truck. This will be the question in my head in the next 12 months. Van: Pros = Easier to maneuver around a city, can go stealth, better for longer travel Cons = Smaller Space Bus: Pros = Bigger space Cons = Harder to go stealth Box Truck Pros = Bigger space (depending on size), stealth to look like a delivery truck Cons = Bulkier, harder to get around I was thinking of maybe a moped or even a micro car to tug along. At this point though, a box truck looks more promising.

The inside is just absolutely perfect the outside as well I will leave the outside the way it is that's what you call true stealth love it I love it I love

Beautiful grain matched cabinets inside. Love the beetle kill pine on the back wall, too. Nice layout, too. It looks like a mad max box truck from the outside. 👍

Love the layout and simplicity

Nice build!! I'd blur the license plate at the end for privacy reasons.

Love it. Fabulous interior.

Nice build. Pretty stealth too.

awesome, I can only applaud you for who you are.

The only big little thing I see I'd do differently is put something over the pex lines at the ceiling. Those look tacky. Aside from that great job brother!!

Nice use of the space.

Nice build, wouldn't say was the best layout ever, wouldn't have used up so much space with the bed or such a limited fridge etc myself but still v nice.

Very impressive! Make me one

When it comes to age of the truck, how far back is it reasonable to go?

Schraders on feed lines are a great idea. Why doesn't every RV have that?

The license plate should be blurred, at the end.

I was expecting a more refined build but it’s very functional!

Do you have a recommendation on how to cover or overlay, or ?a translucent roof?

Box truck is definitely the best option! How much total cost?

i think you spot on keeping the outside rough for security,,,,great job!

Sweet build, the Pullup bar is an awesome idea

I want one so bad... I want one insulated for extreme winter living with a tiny wood stove inside.

Nice

What size box is this, what are the dimensions!

How wide it is

What brand is that water heater?

Dimensions of the van?

It's the guy from willow!

I don’t have a need for a toilet. I unexpectedly got a stomach virus. Now what ya gonna do?

Would you sell it to me and if so how much

For doing 30 builds this is pretty crude. A step or two above some kids making a tree fort with found materials.

Looks real nice and spacious. Love shower

I love your van build but you don't talk about the cost of everything

That box truck doesn’t look sketchy at all… I bet the FBI and ATF knows where this thing is at ALL Times.

he can get locked into the van. He should have the hasp lock open by putting a loop on the open side to put the lock into it and lock it open.

Nice but to big for me.

What if you have to poop in the middle of the night? Or what if you are sick with the runs and need to hit the toilet repeatedly for 24 hours? I plan on getting a dry flush toilet. Mymust-havee list is a hydraulic bed, toilet, shower, and a pocket door to the cab. I think a box truck is better than a van because they are more affordable and because you get a square, so it's so much easier to build and furnish. The angles and curves in the van are too complicated for this do it yourself gal. It's just insane right now how much vans are going for. I was looking for a used one, already built out, and the cheapest one that I would be ok with was $60k. If you wan tto do it yourself, you're looking at $30-$40k just for the van. If you have a shop do your conversion, that's another $50-$100k and most of them are pretty generic without a lot of choices or customization allowed. I'm sorry, but for $100k to $150k all in, I want to be able to choose my layout and fabrics and materials and color scheme. I then started looking at some converted vans for sale in Europe, and even with the cost of shipping to the USA, it would still be way cheaper than buying a finished campervan here. Also, the materials and craftsmanship and storage efficiency was overall much more clever and years ahead of what I was seeing domestically. I then looked it up and found that it is legal for the driver to be on the wrong (right) side. I was surprised! I'm not sure how I would feel about driving a large vehicle on the right side, but if I could hamdle it and get used to it, there are some amazing campervans for sale!!

Nice build. But it loses major points for lack of a toilet. I will never understand people putting in a shower over a toilet. There is nothing worse than needing a toilet and not having one. A daily shower can be had at any local gym, public beach, or pool. $20/mo gives 24/7 access to Planet Fitness or 24 Hour Fitness showers. I shower at the gym as much as I do at home, anyways. But I hate hate hate using disgusting public restrooms and avoid it as much as possible.

Very nice build EXCEPT…..the toilet issue. Did you know that most women have to go at least 1-2 times at night. I don’t know about you but I don’t want to have to boogie with Yogi and BooBoo in the dark. If you wanted to sell it could be difficult.

Beautiful truck. But why is he so sexy? Lol

For a professional van builder not impressed

The whole thing looks like crap on the outside, not a big deal on the inside!
