So many van dwellers leave the door open and are troubled with mice, flies, mosquitos, etc! Your door/screen is a beautiful work of art.

I love Wilfords idea on the screen door build at the side door, I thought of a pocket door but he has made this where the swinging door works really well and doesn't seem to eat up a lot of room when you open it. I do like the rest of his build, well thought out, going to look into that bamboo mattress 😁

Thank you, Brian for taking the time to produce this video. I got to see this amazing rig at the RTR this year. I really enjoyed your interview, because hearing what the owner has changed and is going to change, gives me the courage to start renovating the 1995 Dodge Ram 3500, I have. It is a professional class B van, but dated. I am really comfortable with the platform and engine in this van and because it has less than 60k on it, it should serve me well for many years to come. Because it is paided off and in good shape I could do a lot of updating andup grades and not spend as much as I would have to spend to purchase a platform to build out from scratch. The tour videos have been a great tool for me. Thank you again for creating them.

As a southern boy I really like this guy. Salt of the earth type. For all you people that don’t get it, this is what a down to earth, kind southern is like. Get over yourself if you judge people based on where they are from or how they vote. I’ve been all over the states and we’re more alike than different. Most people care about the world. You’re not unique in that sense. Being kind to everyone is better than any cause you think you’re going to champion. Alienating others for not following your exact path is foolish.

Hello, you may have considered this already but I have a suggestion regarding the area where you keep the canned food. For easier access, the obvious thing to me would be to cut out large portion of the timber bench on top and put it on hinges, turning the bench top into a lid for the drawer but still usable as a bench. I know you have electrical things on both sides, they could remain there. 4:10

I also live full-time in a Ram Promaster Van. The sinks can be expensive. I've found that a $5 Home Depot plastic (5 gl) bucket also works well. Just cut it how deep you want it, cut a hole in the bottom for the drain and plug . Screw the sides of the bucket into the side of the work area. Caulk around the edge of the bucket. Cheap, quick and it will last forever.
