Thank you, I am a van lifer even if it’s just part summer!!! I vacation in my van , I have a shower and a cassette toilet. I travel all over in the summer, then I go to my condo in the winter. I am living my life and consider my self a van lifer!!!! So bring it ! ❤😊
I think what you do is real van life Chrome. I think some of the haters are saying you're not a real van lifer because you have a shop and "spend too much time there." I even saw a video from Amanda of Tidelinetoalpine quite a while ago and she said real van life is being too poor that you have to live in a van, and the ones living it up in $100k Sprinter vans and have creature comforts aren't real van life. So you basically have to be destitute and have no prospects for ever digging yourself out even if you wanted to. That's what vanlife is to many people. Destitution is a weird thing to gatekeep imho. Keep being ambitious Chrome!
Hey Chrome! That is actually MY Van in the video from Andy! I am loving it! Thank you for the inspiration! I am planning on getting the rest of it done after I sell my house (soon) and then I will hit the road!
can't wait for new merch!!! talking about changes, it's so true that others have concerns and worries about you going out and changing your life. I've been living in a van for a year now, and have had friends worried about me and have suggested I get an apartment, but I really enjoy my van life even though my van is still a work in progress. we have been so conditioned by society and our fears to follow the crowd and "be safe" and do the "normal" thing but we all should do what we can to live the way we want to!
I knew a major lightbulb went off when you encountered that couple who owned/ran that little general store/gift shop(I can't remember was it last summer?) and also lived in their van full time. I'm so happy you found the right van life formula that works for YOU!!! Thanks for sha ring everything along your journey. While it's definitely not my gig. I am definitely saving up for a little camper trailer to go on my own adventures. Hugs to you and Cruzie.
So weird that some people seem to think vanlifers aren’t allowed to ever be in buildings? Work in a building? Not vanlife! Take a shower or do laundry at a friend’s house? Not vanlife! It’s completely ridiculous 🙄
According to wandering jeepsy, she did a live, and she tried to give a wide range, like yours is now. But hers was tall and narrow. So not sure how you got yours changed, but it worked woohooo. Nice back ground of your shop. Will the floor always be sensitive to rocks, or will it harden with time. Also…. LOVE ❤️ The weirdos unite red shirt with it down side is sweet!
Hi Chrome, sent you an email through the website. Hopefully this gives you the right link for your rear door seals. Loved the replay video of Cruz, Spanish Banks is always great in the summer.
Pa. Wilderness Adventures -- Still here bro watch you on my tv a lot of times or I'm out in backcountry then i play catch up, watching the family from start to finish even if its a live later on in day Keep up the VV (Keepng It Real)
Silently view your videos, my name is Christy from Calgary. I think you are amazing and your company work plan is outstanding…props to your hard work and dreams coming true. I found you through Matthew van RU-vidr from Calgary. Love your build out. I am looking for a van similar to yours, new one if they still make those vans and I was thinking your shop could possibly build it out. Would that be an option? Would your business developer into a service like that? Thanks for sharing :)
Your next Ford Van should have the 6.8L gasoline V10 bullet proof engine that is getting 300k to 400k miles on syntheyic oil with the best ever towing transmission Ford ever made to date!
FYI.! Steve Wallis was in DC, USA. Talked about stealthily behind the Lincoln Memorial ( a few days ago). Haven't got an update...hope he's not behind bars. Hurricane Beryl on its way to the gulf peninsula, yes stay safe in Texas, Louisiana and Alabama. Your shop looks great.
Mike Hall chimed in... isnt he the guy from Rust Brothers in BC that used to be on Netflix? Lol wouldn't that be funny... dude you do van life your way, it is still van life. Anyone with half a brain knows that right now you are doing van life. I've watched you since the start of year 2 and you are rocking your life!!
@VANCITY VANLIFE Hey Chrome! THIS IS FOR REAL! If you'd like to send me your link for the appropriate door seals, I'd be more than happy to order them and then forward them to you! NOT a problem at all. Then you can just reimburse me. I'm in the Seattle area, so it shouldn't take long at all when it comes to the forwarding part, right? Anyway.... just respond to my post here, and then I'll email you or something so we can get in touch to exchange the info to order! Again, thanks so much for sharing your life with us! BIG HUGS!!! Christine
