Hi Bev I would bet there will be a lot of Landcruiser owners rethinking their set up if they see this video. we always ran a second battery and snorkel and slide outs are a must, we recently installed a 270 Deg awning on a mates vehicle rolls out from the side but wraps around the rear of the SUV as well resulting in an amazing area under cover. Thanks again for sharing stay safe. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺❤️
Jason here! Larry's LC is almost a spittin image of my Grand Cherokee! My bed is on the passenger side and fridge on the left, awning on the same side, bumpers, tire carrier, gas cans, dual battery! This is a great rig! I do most solo stuff as well, so like Larry, mine is a bit overbuilt also for that reason. Big thumbs up Larry👍👍👍👍. Another great video Ms. Bev!!
I think the car fridge will be my next big addition to my set up. I never even knew those existed. This makes me want to go to the overland expo so bad! These builds are so cool and there’s a million combinations.
@@BecomingBev what brand do you have Bev and how do you like it. I know you have a Jackery generator but how long will it stay cold when the car is off?
@@BecomingBev your lady friend Johnnie, that does the interior for the vans that you did a video with she sent me a message, saying she'd like to see my work, didn't know how to get in touch with her so I left her a message that if she wanted to see the pictures to get in touch with you and I said I'm sure Beth would be more than happy to send you the pictures if you want to
Hi , Bev . Vinny here . Tell Larry he's cool ! He's very smart in his choosing . I think that's very cool . Don't know where your at , but if you were here I'd take you to the Prom . I would just like to dance with you . CLOSE ....... Oh , hell , I'm getting all Junior High on you ! Forgive , forgive ! You just bring out the youngster in me ! I'm reading what I just wrote to you and I'm cracking up ! Listening to Beach Boys tonight but next album is RANDY TRAVIS , STORMS OF LIFE ! Bev , you make me giggle ! Vinny .
@@BecomingBev Well , Bev , I'm gonna have one more whisky -Pepsi and go to bed dreaming of you . Your such a sweetheart , and I think of you a lot . Your so cool . I'm so sorry you had some bad things in your life past. Chin up , girl ! Life gets better from now on . I've had my heart breaks too . Ya just never know , our ships may pass . I bet you look sweet on the beach ! I'll leave you with this . There's something in those eyes ------------------. Vinny .
Hey , Bev , it's um , 11:15 , and I got up because I'm soooooo bored ! And I turned you back on and I can hear Larry yamering on but he's cool , and I'm mixxing another drink and thinking about the beach and you . I was laughing earlier today because my neighbors call me the 65 year old teenager . Let them laugh ! I do things they can't ! Neighbor Kathy says I'm gorges , hope my spellink is O .K . ! I want to dedicate a song to you tonight , I Can Hear Music by the Beach Boys on U-Tube . G'nite , Bev .
@@BecomingBev oh wow really I hope to make it to Missouri soon cuz if I don't get the surgeries I don't think I'm going to make it, if I get through the surgeries somehow I'd like to visit your campground for a while
That was a great interview and cruiser tour. I was so pleased to see it, since I have an almost identical Land Cruiser. Mine is a 2000, with just under 260,000 miles. Its also my daily driver, and a reliable workhorse. What Larry has done is such an inspiration! Thank you.
Awesome set up! Toyota proof there with over 300,000 miles on the engine. Wow! Off road, simply perfect for him. Or anyone who loves his type of living. Thank you for sharing Bev! MommaFaye 🌺
@@BecomingBev Hey Bev🙋🏽♀️ I’m reading the comments😊 I’ve saved your email. I’ll email as soon as I get my camper vehicle. Maybe Larry can help me too!🙏🏽
Brilliant!!! The woodwork is👌🏽 He needs to start a business doing simple builds like this one. Everything you need & nothing you don’t🙌🏽🙌🏽 I’ll be in line right behind you, Bev😊
Thats a nice setup. Snorkels are a game changer. I have a V8 powered BroncoII and was always filling the air cleaner with junk. I added a snorkel and the only thing I would find in the airbox is bees. They like flying in at the top. If they made one for a 19 F-150 I would have been going at the fender with a hole saw the day I bought it. 🤪 Thanks for sharing Bev 😉👍 When you heading NW?
The snorkel was a game changer for Larry. Poor bees!!! You're welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm thinking the NW is for spring or summer.
Hey bev, great video, I have a lexus LX 470 2001, similar vehicle, just a bit fancier and am in the process of doing a fitout along the lines of what Les has done and this video has given me some great ideas so thanks for posting and all the best from Aus.
Awesome!! This was perfect for me as I’m converting a 4Runner for exactly the same reason...boondocking and off-roading! My conversion is not as sophisticated lol. I have absolutely no carpentry experience!!! Thanks for sharing this!! Great ideas with the bungees!
My dad always told me make sure you keep bungees in the car. So one day we're driving and the caliber fell off the car. He used a bungee to put the caliper back on and then we drove 5 miles to the shop get fixed And then he told me see this is why you always have a bungee in the car. AMAZING
What's Goin on ( Pretty Girl ) BEV that Jeep was great Love every aspect of it I'm a fan for sure he needs a TH-cam channel to show people how to build and ( KIS ) Keep it simple
Larry's cruiser is such a smart design. It's a cool build/no build. Since he was your neighbor I'm surprised he didn't go more the Glam route.
Larry has his own style. Lol
Larry provided a great addition to your commentary on your adventure.
I agree. He’s a wonderful friend too.
Hi Bev I would bet there will be a lot of Landcruiser owners rethinking their set up if they see this video. we always ran a second battery and snorkel and slide outs are a must, we recently installed a 270 Deg awning on a mates vehicle rolls out from the side but wraps around the rear of the SUV as well resulting in an amazing area under cover.

Cheers to you Barry. I was totally impressed with Larry’s set up!!! He loves his awning too.
I appreciate you being here with me
Absolutely a top class job.A wonderful set up,I'm really impressed thank you for some great ideas
Glad you enjoyed it.
Whisky man that's my favorite. Drink also
And he created a special nook to hold it!!
Love how he has set himself up for easy camping!! Very Cool! Great job Larry! And great video Bev!
You can call me mom. Just sayin. Lol.

Another great video Ms. Bev!!
Look how smart you and Larry are. I love it. I like that you gave Larry a big thumbs up. You're the best.
@@BecomingBev
Funny thing, I got the video notice during our shop meeting, I was like nooooooo! Lol
I’ll try to time them better for you. Lol
@@BecomingBev
Lol!
Great talent Larry has. I'd love to see what he could do, if anything, to my Sienna. If, that is, I ever get out and about like you've been doing.
I think Larry is quite a talented craftsman.
That is so stinking cool. How ingenious
My exact thoughts!!! Thank you
I have hope for my Chevy Tahoe now! Thanks Larry!
Mike
Yes, Larry did a great job with his rig. You can too.
All said : Don't overdo things. Best example is your table. Love that build !
I agree. I think it’s awesome. You should see what he’s building for my van.
LC for the win! My 05 has over325k mikes as well. Love it!
That’s awesome!!!!!!
Nice setup. Just what you need and no extras............... Thanks for posting!
Thanks for watching! I think it's a great set up.
With his talent and ingenious ideas 💡, he could take his ability on the road to others as he travels. Great video 👍
I was thinking he could sell build kits customized for different types of vehicles.
@@BecomingBev YES! Please persuade him. I am not handy at all😩 I would definitely buy one of his kits!
Great times ahead
Indeed.
I hear Trasheroo and my mind starts playing the theme song from Cat Ballou. "Cat Balououou..." Impressive outfit, especially the bar. Geaux Larry!
Of course your mind went there. lol. The bar... right?!!!
Hi Bev. Thanks for the video. Hi Larry. Nice rig.
You’re very welcome 😊 Thanks for watching.
Have fun and take care and take it easy and enjoy it look good
Thank you David. Same to you.
Nice layout and carpentry. I like how you obligated him to help on your van while on camera.
I edited out the part where I asked him... anything else? He said “You could ask me to work on your van”.
I bought a land cruiser just like Larry's. I've been looking for build out designs that suits my need, and I think I just found it. THANK YOU!!
I was kind of blown away by Larry’s rig. His craftsmanship is amazing.
It's amazing when you have a idea and just go for it.
I agree. I love his ingenuity and his design.
I think the car fridge will be my next big addition to my set up. I never even knew those existed. This makes me want to go to the overland expo so bad! These builds are so cool and there’s a million combinations.
Hi Bruce. I love my car fridge. I can keep in plugged in overnight without draining my battery.
I’d like to go to the expo too.
@@BecomingBev what brand do you have Bev and how do you like it. I know you have a Jackery generator but how long will it stay cold when the car is off?
Another great video Ms Bev 👍🏼♥️
Thank you. And thanks for always watching.
Great video of a Great van build. Safe travels everyone 👍☺
Thank you. I thought he did an amazing job!! I appreciate your comment
The vent pipe...🤣...Bev you're super cute...never change Hun...
You’re super sweet. Thank you
Omg!!! That is such a great set up on the land cruiser!!! I love it!!
Eddie. I think so too. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment
"Trasherooo" .... that's what a lot of my 'friends' call my old van !!! Another fun video Bev !!
Oh noooo. Lol. Thanks for being here with me
Just shared your video with my son, what a nice set up he has. So does this mean you will have a off road van when he gets done. 😂😂
hmmm... lol. I'm thinking more like a better functioning interior but you never know... knowing Larry.
Bev,being out here for 4 days I’ve seen so much creAtivity,ingenuity, basic smarts some people have regarding their rigs...good interview...
Thank you Rick. People are soooooo creative.
Wow! Larry’s design of his is brilliant…loved watching this video!
I thought so too.
Really good video Bev 💯💯💯💯💯
Thank you Cliff. Larry does great work.
Thank you Cliff. Larry does great work.
@@BecomingBev I could tell by what I saw in the video,

Great tips about the wood as i hate the wood look so less is much better
I think Larry did a good job managing the wood. Thanks for the comment Christine.
Amazing build.
He just finished building out his Subaru too! So cool.

Cool build design and nice offroader enjoyed it
I thought so too!!! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Never seen a Land cruiser like this.intelligently designed.
Yes. Larry does great work.
Loved the setup in the LC and a separate electrical system. Very well thought out and organized. Great video
I thought so too. Larry is currently redoing my van. I can't wait!!
@@BecomingBev oh wow really I hope to make it to Missouri soon cuz if I don't get the surgeries I don't think I'm going to make it, if I get through the surgeries somehow I'd like to visit your campground for a while

Great setup....That's for the great show...
You're very welcome. I think it's a cool set up too. Thanks for the comment.
Great conversion. Thanks I live in my RAV4 and transform it during the day to take passengers for income.
I met a taxi driver in the Bahamas that did that. Sending you so much ❤️. Thanks for watching.
Another great video. He seems like a great guy.
Thank you. He is a great guy.
Impressive rig, been entertaining a overland/bug out vehicle. Mid 2000’s Yota Land Cruiser or it’s Lexus cousin are top of the list.
It’s a great set of for extreme off roading.
Larry, you da ' man. Great job. I love it.
He is, right!!! Thanks for the comment

Hats off to larry .. i like the bit aboot hiking .😂😂😂😂.. drive 80 miles to get on the grog ..😂🤣😂😎pip pips and carryon pilgrims
He likes to be out in no mans land for sure, and has the right rig for it.
Great job 👍👍👍
I think so too. Thanks for the comment.
This Toyota is strong like a Tank. Its a long Life vihicle. The Storagespace over the Fridge with the tree holes, look like a Winerack 😉
Beer, wine and whiskey. Sounds like a party. Yes, I was shocked and impressed when he said the mileage.
I now might do that to my Ford Explorer that I bought & drive since 1994 😎
I love Larry’s set up. Keep me posted.
Love it! I'd like to get him to help me with my Honda! Looks close to the same size. Thanks for sharing and awesome work Larry! 😊
He is interested in doing conversions. If you'd like email me your information and I will forward it to him. BecomingBev@yahoo.com
@@BecomingBev thanks!
@@BecomingBev Hey Bev🙋🏽♀️ I’m reading the comments😊 I’ve saved your email. I’ll email as soon as I get my camper vehicle. Maybe Larry can help me too!🙏🏽

Yay... good. I’m happy you picked up a few ideas. I was super impressed with Larry’s build. Thanks for the comment
That’s an amazing set up!
We just went to a Rocky area in the desert and it’s right, there are no rest areas over there for the trash or nothing
Yes, I thought the Trasharoo was a good idea if you're going to be out for a while. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Pretty cool set up...ty for sharing this with us
You're very welcome.Thank you for taking the time to watch.
@Becoming Bev, I kept laughing at your reaction when he mentioned he has 320k miles on it!!! Wow!!!!
I know. Lol. I was obviously in shock.

I bet it would be okay. lol Thanks for the comment.
I’m going to hire Larry to build out my new Infinity GX 60. Hi Bev .
I think he'd be game. Send me an email at BecomingBev@yahoo.com if you're serious. Hi Jim!!!

If he’s helping you better pay him one way or another. Preferably beer. 🙂
Whiskey! I think he mentioned Jack Daniels. Lol
I need to talk to Larry myself I'm fixing up my Cruiser as of now
Wow. Yes. I think talking to him is a good idea.
@@BecomingBev no doubt
Of course, he's a Texan. Bravo, sir.
You are so lucky if he will help her. New sub here. Does Larry have s channel, please? Ty.
Hi Welcome!!! Thanks for subscribing. Yes, I can wait to see how he tweaks my set up. I feel very lucky.
He needs a channel. Right?!!!
I now have a channel! Ramblin Man Conversions, you can see Bev's new upgrades
Awesome camper 👍
It really is! Thank you Mary. I love seeing you here
Muito obrigado pelo vídeo. Aprendi muito. Interessantíssimo.
Hello gorgeous hope to see you come to Michigan went it get warm
Maybe one day! Yes, we agree not until it's warm. lol
WOW!! Another perspective for minimal living....
Right?! I was impressed with his ingenuity and craftsmanship.
How do you determine what you need to support the weight of something?
I'll ask Larry.... Okay He says grey hair experience. lol
Love it 😂😂😂😂 great since of humor
Awe... Thank you and thanks for taking the time to watch and comment
Great build. Does Larry have a TH-cam channel?
He doesn’t. Maybe we should talk him into it.
I do now! Ramblin Man Conversions, come take a look at Bev's remodel
Love it SUV RVING
There are so many ways to RV.
LOVE YOUR VIDEO😍
Thank you Mario!!! I appreciate the love.
What's Goin on ( Pretty Girl ) BEV that Jeep was great Love every aspect of it I'm a fan for sure he needs a TH-cam channel to show people how to build and ( KIS ) Keep it simple
I was totally impressed with it too! I agree. Thanks for the feedback

Where's the mattress???
Its there!

Where’s your van? I clicked so fast but had to double take what I was seeing🥴
My friend Larry is giving my van a major upgrade. It should be finished in a couple of weeks.
NOTHING like a TOYOTA !!! they last a LONG TIME & RUGGED and if we'll MAINTAIN , it's a 30 Year vehicle , and plenty of miles to enjoy !!!👍
Larry has no plans to get rid of his. This one is definitely well loved and well maintained. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment
Smart traveler , i hope he fixes up your palace . PEACE :) PS pretty click bait on the cover
He's been sending me a few design ideas, He's very smart and creative.
👍💥
Thanks for the thumbs up and for binge watching my vids.
@@BecomingBev lol, I watched several or yours and Terry’s while I was under the weather last day or so. 😎💥
Where are you now, Pretty Lady??
Still in St Pete. I’ll begin to head south on Feb 21
😘
Thanks for the love
his awning is too big
I guess its a matter of taste. He loves that big awning. Plenty of shade to sprawl out under.
