    I love that you actually built everything yourself. So often I'll see videos titled diy van build and you find out the girls dad is a contractor that "helped". Please be safe and not too trusting. Young girls like you are always a target for creeps and the fact that you're attractive multiplies that. Beautiful build and pup

      Do you think it's dangerous to live full time in a van as a young woman?

    • @charlesgallagher1376
      @charlesgallagher1376 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@an6350 it depends on the woman. This one had a knife and bear spray handy. Shit happens.

    This is probably the best van build I've seen. So neat and organized without feeling so cramped.

    Wow - what a great video! I gotta say, you've done an outstanding job on your conversion. Everything seems pretty straight forward but I know most guys couldn't piece something together like that as you've done and that includes me! There is another aspect from your video that many of us can learn from and that is the minimalist lifestyle. Most of us have way too much junk! Thanks for sharing!!!

    I have a 1999 1500 Express I’ve been living in for 1.5 years. You got a great deal and are doing a great job on the inside. The outside is similar to what I’ve planned for mine. Glad I ran across your video.

    You gongirl💃👍❣️All a gal has to know is that she can. If she doesn’t know how she can learn, then do. I taught myself plumbing, electrical, carpentry, welding and a myriad other trades. If it’s doable I can do it. If I can’t lift it or turn it there’s always leverage at hand.
    It is a clever build and living with your first gave insight into necessary change functionality and aesthetically.
    GREAT JOB and I’m very envious of your van. Awesome find. 🥰💕👍

    You took my entire mind and things I have been envisioning but have yet to execute. I'm in the planning, paper, pencil and research phase. The van builds on TH-cam are great, but I'm on a budget.... but crafty and experimental. I just want comfortable, warm and completely equipped for a 3 month cross country drive . I can't thank you enough for this video. I will use this one as a template after 1 year off looking yours is the most practical - the solar. I'm thinking Jackery maybe because its just a freeing mind and soul tour. I won't be on a schedule. Thank you!!!!!
