Awesome build and Toyotas are super reliable for cross country traveling.
It reminds me of teardrop trailer. Well- designed camper car. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
Nice & simple build. Very livable. Thank You!
I have Sienna 2006. Wow, can't wait to see what you have done!!!
wow this is one of the best Sienna conversions Ive seen!
Incredible layout. Love it
Love the build. Good insight for me as I’m considering the Sienna as a travel van. Thank you!
Excellent, Glad I found you guys.
Great build, well thought out. I built out my KIA Sedona & never thought about putting an overhead fan in, great idea & help.
We almost went with a KIA sedona as well but got a slightly better deal on this. The inside seemed very similar and I think the Kia is actually a bit more powerful which could come in handy I bet.
How did you keep the headliner so nice when you cut threw the roof for the fan? Because it looks great. I agree, you need a fan.
I love the idea of linoleum samples for the counter, that's so cool! 😍
Wow that’s an awesome build!
Happy for you. Life i s short. Ill be 80 july 13 2020.
My sweetheart and I didn't get mg arried.
Life is short. Enjoy your life.
Thank you for such a touching message. I wish you Happy Birthday today! You are right, we have to enjoy what we can :)
Truly like your kitchen
Safe travels and blessings
thank you, you too!
Really liked the build!
What a beautiful van build
She has an accent, back in her homeland her boyfriend is considered gorgeous. 😁
This is AMAZING seriously so creative with the kitchen and the build of the bed. The worst part about sleep in a car is the lack of air flow. My bf and I have one small fan but I wish we could get one like that. Love the build, good stuff 🤙
thank you so much! appreciate it. This fan is really good, helped a lot in the night. Good luck with everything
Nice build,simple and workable........
Excellent job!! You guys are killing it!
haha thank you very much :)
Nicely played with the Fantastic Fan....and absolutely nothing like a sunroof lol..well done...
Just bought a 2020 Sienna, with plans to travel the USA. Then I found your video and I am SO inspired!
That is awesome! Hope you get to hit the road this summer!!
Nice set up good luck to the both of you
Awesome ideas I'm loving it! If you want minimalism you have perfected it!
thank you :)
great job on the van ...im watching to get ideas ...god bless you 2..happy adventures..
Excellent job guys!
I've seen a lot, very impressed! Totally saving this one
A very nice build! Thank you for sharing!
thank you :)
Great job! Enjoy your life.
Awesome van. I have the same van. My Vamper " Van/Camper," coming soon. Great inspiration.
This is a fantastic Sienna build - I'm just starting my second one, and think I'll use several of your great ideas... I especially like your video because it's so clear, and well presented! I hope you keep making more videos, this one is excellent!
thank you very much Leana! I'm glad you like that video. Hope your second van will be awesome.
Great ideas with nice and neat storage, etc.
It looks good and I’m very glad for you two. You bypassed Georgia. We have mountains, rolling hills, plains marshes, sea shores and some islands thrown in. Come back by, you won’t be sorry.
We definitely want to go back and see Georgia. We heard it has a loads to offer. Thanks for sharing
I've watched the video a few times... I'm designing mine with the bed all the way back and the kitchen out the driver side slider... but your build is clean and full of nice ideas. Thanks!
Awesome! That is such a great idea for a new design. thanks for sharing
Looking for Sienna's right now for my build. Your van is by far my favorite conversion so far!
thank you so much! Really appreciate it
Well done ! Love the kitchen
thank you very much Erin. Hope you are safe and healthy
Y’all have a beautiful set up
thank you :)
Pretty cool stuff. Well done.
Hey, thanks!
Great job. Enjoy the journey!!
Thanks! We are enjoying the journey!
lOVE that kitchen
Love the set up
thank you
Very Nice Job on your Build and the Nice Touch for the Fan Roof which I have Not seen done on your vehicle type. Very Functional and Happy Adventure be SAFE !!!
Thanks! Ya it was a bit nerve racking to do the fan as I couldn't find anyone else that had put the fan in this type of van. Luckily it wasn't too difficult!
Great job guys👍 looks pretty cool
thank you!
Great job! I hope you are enjoying your travels
thank you. traveling is always a joy
Very nice! Good job.
Thank you very much!
I have a 2006 Sienna as well. I turned mine into a RV as well. I use the USB Alumi-Noodle, which is fantastic for lights. I also use Foam insulation panels covered in black felt for my windows. It's better than curtains, and insulates the van so I don't lose heat through the glass.
That USB alumi-noodle seems like a great solution. Wish we thought of that. We also use reflectix/cardboard panels that work to insulate the vehicle as well as provide privacy.
Cool video guys.
Best minicamper built I have ever seen. Well done you two!
Thanks :)
Looks like your set up is very similar to a mini camper, like a teardrop trailer - nice.
Awesome!... Thank You!
Sick setup 🔥🔥
thank you
Your build is by far the best I have seen! I plan on getting the same car and doing something similar…I think the only thing I would do different is have storage for clothes above
yes, we did it later during traveling. we bought some cheaper version of Thule and it definitely helped!
Nice design.
a very small camper van thank you
great job...i love velcro too!
haha velcro is everything. Thank you
Fantastic kitchen 👍
Roaming Ruca thank you :)
That is so beautiful..
Great Set Up!
Thanks!
I finally done convert my 2013 sienna ready on the road again. But I have to find a beautiful fantastic lady like her.
The roof vent is a nice touch!
Thanks, definitely comes in handy when it is hotttt!
Very nice!
It is amazing I try to do same way for my trip.
Go for it!
Wow !!! What a cool conversion !!! Everything in its place so you know where everything is. Velcro is a wonderful invention and so is your fridge. Thanks for the tour guys. You’re awesome !!! New sub here ♥️✌🏼🧘🏻♀️
Glad you like it!
Good job
Very well made
Thank you!
I love you guys van
I love Velcro too!!!
I love your set up! I sould make like your on my van
Nice setup! Thank you for sharing. My better half especially liked your kitchen ;)
thank you very much! We really appreciate it .
Personally I prefer a kitchen you can access from inside so if weather is bad or if you have to be stealth, you can still make yourself something to eat. ....but you did manage to fit quite a bit in there.
Looks Great so you decided to forgo the storage in the back, the stow and go! I'm going to get a Sienna too, just one person, hey best of luck to you two!
Thanks for watching! 1 person will be even better as you can probably build a smaller bed and have a bit more room for storage.
If you get an AWD Sienna know that it will not have a spare. THey come with Run Flat tires and these cost more and wear faster. I have a Sienna and ditched mine and found a spare.
Cool thanks!
3rd Sienna conversion I've seen today. They do the job fairly inexpensively. Happy travels.
They do! thanks :)
I love your build. Id like to duplicate yours for myself😍😍😍
Glad you like it! Let us know if you build one!
Nice van build..the refrigerator make sure has enough ventilation so doesn't overheat comprende ..
A Tear Drop car! 😍😍
Like your build 😎🍺
Thanks!!
nice set up... i’m thinking of getting a new sienna and installing a bed, just so i can sleep at work, in between shifts.
Definitely! you will love it :) what a great idea
Looking at box trucks then sprinters, but I keep coming back to this.
We did the same. Wanted a sprinter so bad but just so expensive. Someday, someday!
I just bought a 1998 Toyota Sienna and have started my "no-build" Build.
Good job!
thank you :)
@00:7 thank you!
Very nice! I just suscribed! Planning on getting a minivan to take long road trips on summers!Thank you! I suggest you check out travel packing cubes for your clothes. They save a lot of space.
Safe travels!!
Thank you for the tip! I hope you will get the minivan and have as much fun as we have ! It's really gorgeous country
SUPER!!!
Nice work guys, my favorite area is the kitchen on the back. Well arranged, nothing "over the top" but very useful and practical. I may "borrow" some of your ideas, although I have an Escape SUV instead of a Toyota Sienna. I have less room to work with than you do. Take care. New subscriber today.
Thanks, glad you like it! Having an SUV will definitely be more handy in a lot of situations (low clearance, dirt roads, etc) than a mini-van. Hope your build turns out well :)
Awesome design guys! I'm looking for a camper car...and was going to get an Element but definitely getting an AWD Sienna now!
Good choice! I remember researching this and seeing some videos of a guy that did it in an element and looked pretty cool as well!
Awesome conversion. Keep on keeping on.
I love vlogs that are 10 minutes or less.
If the vans a rocking, don't come knocking 😉
This girl is cute! Nice accent ♥️
We have the same minivan! ♥️
I think your setup is best for my needs. Really well thought out! Thank you so much for sharing. Did your build awning on your roof as well?
Amazingly gorgeous!!!👠🚌👠
Library and gym 👍👍🏻
Will like to see a video on the Fan installation please. Nice van guys
Hi Edgar, there is one video about how we installed the fan. It's on your channel. There is also video about the electricity in our van
This is the absolute best minivan build I've seen (although I'm also biased by your choice of a Toyota van)! I have a 1994 Previa I've converted to a camper, going strong with 312k miles on it, but I know it's not going to last forever, and I've identified the 2004-2005 AWD Sienna (Limited, for factory-installed back-up camera and heated front seats) as my perfect replacement choice. As far as I can tell, your concept would be a near perfect build. Solves a lot of the little quirks that bother me with my Previa build. Thanks for sharing! I will definitely be coming back to this video and your channel to emulate your concept when I finally upgrade to a Sienna! Btw, is yours AWD? Curious about how that may relate to your gas mileage, which I was impressed by as you described in another video, but maybe you have FWD?...
Amazing van! Saving in my “Dreams” playlist for future reference. And of course, you got yourself a new subscriber. You’ll have thousands subscribers in no time! 👍🏼
I guess Im asking randomly but does someone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my account password. I love any tips you can offer me!
@Garrett Lachlan Instablaster :)
@Tony Bowen Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Tony Bowen it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
@Garrett Lachlan No problem :)
This is amazing. waw
Very cute! If the fan tastic fan was in the opposite direction would be a precaution Incase you forget it open it won’t rip the cover off!👍
yes haha
Nice job on van. 👍

Hi! thank you
Very nice, I’m jealous lol
Nice video, I would have to have the fridge on a shelf higher up on a pullout slide, with the hanging bag below. Easier to fill and see what is in there.
that will make it easier, that's true. The set up we have worked very well for us too.
Awesome minivan tour and so smartly build! Is this a CE or LE model?
Siena coming with hybrid I love vans
I know! I saw. looking good
Fantastic layout. Your design seems to be the best for not having a rooftop tent. Save gas and be safer without any external equipment that will add weight and increase wind resistance.
NIce job on the van build, especially the kitchen. I would like to know two things. 1) What is the ground clearance of your Sienna and 2) So, without moving the front seats forward, you have the length of a full sized bed PLUS room for the kitchen? That's pretty amazing. You are a cute couple, I wish you safe travels and great adventures.
