What did the Eurolift bed lift cost and where did she get it? It is made by the same people that make the a Happijak but they told me that it is almost impossible to become an OEM with them because they have very high minimum orders commitment. That means they’re going to be so few vendors price will be astronomical. They even discouraged me from wanting one saying it’s only used in multi million dollar motor coaches in weird locations which is BS about the weird locations. Those double pane acrylic windows in the back also cost a pretty penny. She spent a fortune on this conversion but I guess that’s what interior designers do.
I would love to know what this van cost to build? It's perfect for what I want. She has a great design. Little worried it would be way out of my budget though.
@@roseannerodriguez1 I live alone in the heart of a high crime rate city - you think that’s safer? Life has risks, you can’t limit your choices letting fear dictate your behavior. You act responsibly and do the best you can.
@@joshn2342323 Honestly, living in a van is about 100x more stressful. Seriously. The angst of figuring out where to sleep each night. the stress of breaking down and not only your vehicle but also your home towed for repairs that can take days/weeks. The stress of living in a depreciating asset that will be worth 1/2 of what you paid for it. The stress of not having a central place to call your own. Don't get me wrong, for a vacation they simply rock. but full time living in a van is actually pretty sucky. They all have zero insulation and you need to run a generator 24/7 to keep cool and the heater to keep warm. BTDT. Oh, and it is usually more expensive than living in a sticks and bricks home or apartment !
For security make the outside appear that you are not alone. Setup 2 chairs & have an empty drink can in both when you are not there. Also have a large size male boots outside at the entrance door. Make sure they look well used. Just giving ideas.
I believe that is a doberman. I had 1 as a kid and she was so loyal loving and protective. I would do all the above, but no one in their right mind would attack her with that dog.
Oh my goodness. I never ever thought of using magnets to stick herb and spice bottles to the underneath of cupboards. As someone with a disability who finds it really difficult to grab some things, this is a genius idea. I don’t live in a tiny house, never want to live in a tiny house, but that doesn’t mean I don’t get fantastic storage ideas from tiny houses!
One of the best-designed vans I've seen. Exactly how I would have it, a roomy place to take a shower, and sitting area behind that. I think a lone female needs two things if she is going to do vanlife, a bathroom so she doesn't have to leave the van at night, and a way to get to the cab quickly without leaving the van, and being able to "relocate" or leave the area as quickly as possible. If I had a van to design into a living space, I'd definitely take it to you.
@@janisvirgin719 I don’t know your age but you still can! I watched a video of a 72 yo woman who is rocking van life better than some younger people. Don’t let your age hold you down
I've seen many, many, many van homes and yours is perfection in every way. If I ever decided on van life I would most definitely want you to design mine! 🖒🖒🖒😊
When I was your age I spent most of my free time in the woods with my big dog. And I felt much more secure than now in the city without a dog. You made me nearly cry when you talked about security with your dog.
Shannon has done a brilliant job in designing this van conversion and has totally nailed all of the space and storage solutions. The bed lift system is just pure genius. I totally want my own van, when I do finally get one, to be just like this one. No costing is mentioned though and I’m guessing that a conversion as top class as this one doesn’t come cheap. It’s definitely my favourite van conversion that I’ve seen so far.
This is the best van, I love the design. It has everything you need for a comfortable home. Simple, no clutter and a space for everything. Great job, Shannon, if I were younger I would hire you to design my van. Pro master seems to be the best size for van life.
@@rubiconoutdoors3492 I believe only front wheel drive. Not ideal for traction when you do a van build with all your weight on the rear axle! Especially this one with 40 gallons of water and 600ah of batteries. That's a lot of weight right over or behind the rear axle transferring even more weight off of the front drive wheels where it's needed for traction.
I live in a small apartment, so I'm fascinated by people who know how to utilize small spaces. You are one of the most amazing space users I have seen. That bed blew me away! Beds take up so much space and for you to have a lifting bed that rises to the ceiling of the van when not in use and blends in with the ceiling is one of the most efficient uses of space I have ever seen! Your organizational skills are also amazing. Love how you compartmentalize your closet space so efficiently. You even have a small compartment for your skis!
This is really good! It checks the boxes where most van builds compromise on but I do not really want to: 1. shower + toilet 2. good size sleeping area 3. comfy living, dining, entertainment area 4. ventilation/airconditioning options 5. working kitchen Bonuses 1. outdoor table options 2. those windows are a good case for getting your build done by pros 3. rice cooker + steamer is awesome (and uncooked rice is easy to keep and won't spoil right for a while) - with the right recipes, you won't need a stove for many meals
I often hear people say they only use their toilet for nr 1's. So where do they go for nr 2's. Genuine question. When is it raining for days, for example?
Yes.. I saw another build that had a inside thermostat that reports back to you by App over your phone.. so you can monitor the real-time temp in the vehicle And always know if something malfunctioned and her doggie was in danger
Each person has different needs depending on their lifestyle. Some people build without a shower, others have minimal cooking area and room for bikes etc. You can get ideas from various channels depending on your interests and budget. There are people who also build from ambulances, buses and box trucks. You do you. And there are numerous toilet options as well.
The best thing I’ve heard so far is a 40 gallon freshwater tank. As someone who is limited to 25 gallons, 40 is beyond my dreams. What an incredible feature.
The shower in Shan's van solves the one problem I have not seen addressed in others. Also love the double bed system. Arguably the BEST van build I have seen. 👌🏾
Godammit! Every time I watch a van conversion, I’m like ‘this is the one!’…. And now…. THIS is the one! I’ll never make up my mind lol. Absolutely gorgeous van! 😍
Beautiful build. This is only the 2nd build I've seen the that uses the drop down bed. That, the drop down counter extensions and pull out table are truly a very smart use of space. Happy travels to you and Gracie.
There are numerous variants of positive locking latches. Amazon is an easy source, and In general, van builders looking for ideas could do worse than to look at the marine industry - the marine stuff all costs a fortune, but there are usually cheap knockoffs of passable quality to be had. Marine stuff is built to withstand bumping and rocking, so in that sense there's a lot of commonality with van builds.
Really great job.....I am an elder single small female traveler also. I traveled for 2 years in the USA in a motor home and then to different countries......I really like being solo because I went and did exactly what I wanted to do when I wanted. LOL I never felt afraid. I actually think I was safer because I was never seen as a threat to others and people seemed to look out for me.....I also had dog while I was living in the MH, and after he died then I traveled also overseas and camped on beaches or in hostiles for 12 years .....I really liked how you set up the van and if I decided to go that direction, (you got me itching) I would definitely look you up for your talents and suggestions. thanks
I second everything said here! I’ve always been intrigued by van life & van tours, but this is the only design that’s made me consider van life as a real possibility. Incredible job, Shannon!
I am so impressed with this build! If I were to commit to van life, I would definitely take inspiration from Shannon's design. One of the best builds I've seen that would cater to my own needs. Well done!!!
Hi Shannon I’ve seen quite a few van builds, but I think yours is one of the best. I really like how you utilized your space and the wood tones . If I were to build my van today it would be just like yours .
It is easy to put some cameras around your Van connected to your computer and phone. If your dog barks you can see who is outdoors before considering open your door or call the Police. I would do that if living in a van for security.
If you are boondocking in a remote area and fear for your safety, calling the police is not an option. Being able to monitor your exterior and having either a stun gun or mace or both makes more sense when travelling alone. I think she and Gracie will do ok in any situation. Shannon seems like a very levelheaded young woman.
Best van build I have ever seen!!!!! I’m married with two kids now so that solo travel isn’t for me but but my husband and I both joke we wish we could have done this when we were single😂 You did an amazing job!!! Just gained an intracranial follower before the video even ended😎😂
I really loved your layout of the beds and kitchen and the most, the bathroom. Many only have a bucket for toilet and outdoor shower. Really well done, nice colors too!!!
Great Van Design - Hanging Closet, Slim Closet, Big pantry, Real Fridge, Decent Toilet and Shower, Love the hot water option and the on-off feature of the handheld shower. Kitchen works well and has a big enough flip-up counter extension. Everything about this van is great!!! Love it!
Very impressive young lady! That bed idea is just one of many I'm sure is yet to come. You have a beautiful show case on wheels. Great choice on the people that did the build. Your on your way young lady and I'm very Happy for you! You have put your fears behind you and are going for your dream! Be safe and God Bless You!!!!
This is the first van conversion I have seen that if I wanted to and if I were able to with absolutely love. A lot of thought and planning went into this design. The sleeping / bed arrangement is awesome!
I absolutely love this Van Build, it's so light and airy and it seems so spacious I like the living and sleeping area in the back as well as the use of one of the swivel seats. It's really nice.
I’m almost 71 and I could live in this….it all look’s so easy to live in. The bed is perfect….love the bed lift…gives more room in the “living” area. This is fantastic….great design!
This is amazing. I finished my own drawings a week ago and it is SO close to this layout. It's fun to see it in actuality and I can't wait to get on the road!.
Very nice and well planned! I love the outdoor table. It's like having an extra room. The cabinet color is lovely and I like that you gave yourself a place for artwork. It is cool that your bed lowers so you don't have to convert your work/dining area into a bed every night. Safe and happy travels to you and your beautiful dog!
This is the nicest and most practical design of van living I have seen so far. The bed lift idea is absolutely brilliant! Well done Shannon. I am a minimalist but you have given me ideas for sure.
Great van build! I am considering the van life as a retirement option and think your build would be a perfect fit. I know this is a somewhat personal question but if you wouldn’t mind sharing what was the cost of the van build not including the cost of the van it would help me in my planning and would be much appreciated. I understand if you prefer to keep this information private.
I'd like to know the same. This is by far the best van conversion I've seen. Love the drop down bed, the windows with screens and black out shades, and the shower and toilet. This set up is perfection. I would need space for a microwave/convection oven somewhere and heat for year round living.
Love what you did especially the elevator bed! That is awesome. That gorgeous big pantry would have to be a clothes closet for me! A couple of pullout drawers built into the underside of the bed sounds great! Wonder if you could do that? Shower curtain across the potty is an excellent idea and Gracie is a gorgeous pupper! Do you do conversion busses as well? Congratulations on turning your job into a “To Go” occupation. Wish this kind of thing was more popular when I was younger. Oh well! Happy and safe travels!
The bed concept is something I've been theorizing for a while, and I haven't seen anything tangible in all these youtube videos until now. Thank you for giving me the confidence.
How awesome is this bed lift system?
I would be SO happy to have that lift bed in my trailer. It's awesome.
10 outta 10 💥
What did the Eurolift bed lift cost and where did she get it? It is made by the same people that make the a Happijak but they told me that it is almost impossible to become an OEM with them because they have very high minimum orders commitment. That means they’re going to be so few vendors price will be astronomical. They even discouraged me from wanting one saying it’s only used in multi million dollar motor coaches in weird locations which is BS about the weird locations.

Agreed! I could see myself living in this van. Has everything you need inside if you can’t go outside for whatever reason. I’d feel safe.
I remember when "You will be living in a van down by the river" was an insult. Now it is a goal!

Hands down the best most complete design Ive seen so far. You did an amazing job!
This is the best van build EVER
Pretty much the BEST van design I've ever seen!
Never thought I could live in a van. That is, until I saw Shannon's van.
2 minutes in and she's already blown me away with her ingenious shower and extendo-galley kitchen shelf. Very cool.
I love the no “garage” in the back, gives you so much more room. Love it, great design! Thanks for sharing ..from Australia 🇦🇺
I would have big drawers in the back to access things better. But I agree - I want more storage inside and love the living space with raising bed!
Yes! And still some storage. Also can access storage under the bench seat if you make a door for it.

so far this is one of the best video ive watch , it was complete has bathroom sofa and bed , and also the interior design of van was elegant
This is a BRILIANT design! I can't belive you desined it all by yourself without ever living on the road! Just briliant!!!👍👍👍😍👏👏👏
Wow, I've seen expensive motorhomes that weren't designed as nice as this, well done!!!
This looks expensive. Probably around $150 K.
Awww, what a gorgeous pup! What a beautifully, cozy and perfectly functional home. Love the cabinet color choice especially.
It is easy to put some cameras around your Van connected to your computer and phone. If your dog barks you can see who is outdoors before considering open your door or call the Police. I would do that if living in a van for security.

I watch many of these and honestly i really like yours the best ....i love the drop down bed system... beautiful build
The design and floor plan is the best I've seen yet so far! very creative and ingenious with the drop down bed. I applaud you and happy journey!!
I love how I have had the same idea for the bed years ago and that someone actually did it. It looks great!
its been 2 years and I still watch Shannon’s van build to this date… functionality and practicality comes first 👍🏻

This is amazing. I finished my own drawings a week ago and it is SO close to this layout. It's fun to see it in actuality and I can't wait to get on the road!.
I’ve now watched dozens of van conversations. Yours is the BEST. Super bed solution.
She has sooo much extra storage space!! The kitchen drawers are only half full. Fantastic!! 💛
Coolest bed system I've seen so far. Great build.
So in love with the design. You did an AMAZING job. I'd love a van like yours in the future.
Very nice and well planned! I love the outdoor table. It's like having an extra room. The cabinet color is lovely and I like that you gave yourself a place for artwork. It is cool that your bed lowers so you don't have to convert your work/dining area into a bed every night. Safe and happy travels to you and your beautiful dog!

This is the nicest and most practical design of van living I have seen so far. The bed lift idea is absolutely brilliant! Well done Shannon. I am a minimalist but you have given me ideas for sure.
Best design i've seen yet. A bed lift is a must.
Best van build I've seen in the all the years I've been watching the vanlife builds. Great design for living and working on the road with a dog!
Great van build! I am considering the van life as a retirement option and think your build would be a perfect fit. I know this is a somewhat personal question but if you wouldn’t mind sharing what was the cost of the van build not including the cost of the van it would help me in my planning and would be much appreciated. I understand if you prefer to keep this information private.
Very Nice! Beautiful Job!
I'd like to know the same. This is by far the best van conversion I've seen. Love the drop down bed, the windows with screens and black out shades, and the shower and toilet. This set up is perfection. I would need space for a microwave/convection oven somewhere and heat for year round living.
Love what you did especially the elevator bed! That is awesome. That gorgeous big pantry would have to be a clothes closet for me! A couple of pullout drawers built into the underside of the bed sounds great! Wonder if you could do that? Shower curtain across the potty is an excellent idea and Gracie is a gorgeous pupper! Do you do conversion busses as well? Congratulations on turning your job into a “To Go” occupation. Wish this kind of thing was more popular when I was younger. Oh well! Happy and safe travels!
The bug screen and black-out shade and bed-lift invention is genius !!
The bed concept is something I've been theorizing for a while, and I haven't seen anything tangible in all these youtube videos until now. Thank you for giving me the confidence.
This is such a classy and beautiful set up, love the bed idea and all the storage and cool little extra's. Beautiful dog ! Thanks.....
I love this design! Perfect!
Clean, contemporary and beautiful!
Very nice! What's even nicer is that you have all the headroom as well. You dont have to crouch down and can walk around freely.
This is THE most prepared can I’ve seen. It’s absolutely perfect!! Everything was thought out.
