I love your design!! I spent 20 years working inside your exact rig as a medic. Now looking at this and having a desire to do this lifestyle… your design is mind blowing. Well done. Happy and safe journeys..
Thank you so much ❤ good luck on your journey!
Its freakin me out that the entrance is on the drivers side ! FANTASTIC RIG !
Lol-we succumbed to the fact that our rig would be a little different that way. Thank you ☺️
@@theorybybecky 👍🍻✌
I hope you are carrying with one in the chamber. Also remember to always have eyes on the back of the hats because predators think you can see them.
It's always good to let someone know your whereabouts. Don't run and if you're helping a wild animal cover their eyes, it calms them. ❤
Thanks for the advice 😊
You did an amazing job with Earl I believe, I can't wait to see the next video.. I got queasy watching you hike that trail and go over the bridge, I am so afraid of heights 🤢, the dogs bless their hearts, I didn't think they would go but the love of their Mommy won over. You all take care and keep safe. God Bless. 🙂
Thank you for your kind words ❤ we took a break from videos recently but will be back with them soon 😀 the winter was a bit uninspiring but the spring is thawing out our creativity.
Great build,
l like the cork board thing in kitchen. Some smashing ideas.
Thank you 😊
Hi guys what a beautiful build. I just started following you. I loved the hike what breathtaking views.
Thank you! We hope you enjoy our adventures :) it’s been so fun sharing it with others. The Perimeter trail in Ouray is incredible!! I naively thought it would be chill-but nope. It’s a lot of up and downs and damn, the views 😍
welcome. Your editing is awesome too.
@@Cpd0127 that’s all my husband Meade! I have no talent in that department whatsoever.
Great job Meade
...that compartmentalized wardrobe was excellent ...somehow the driver side entrance door gives it a whole new fresh feel
Thank you! It’s surprising how many people are absolutely bewildered by the drivers side rv door. For us it was kinda a no brainer 🤷🏻♀️
Amazing campervan! Thank you for the video!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for sharing those amazing views just beautiful!! Your build is awesome really feels like home. The dogs are having the time of their lives. Keep living great!!
Thank you 😊 our dogs are my KIDS lol. Seeing them loving life brings me so much joy.
Out of this world van flippen nice
Thanks ☺️
the interior has a nice balance of natural wood and colored surfaces
Thank you! I picked out the cushion fabric before I decided on the paint colors. If I could have a re-do, the bench wouldn’t be blue.
Amazing rig! Looks really well planned out. Would love to see the exterior and garage tour as well. Cheers!
That will be coming soon! Probably in the next couple episodes
Excellent ambo tour! I just picked up a 2002 Ford E-350 Ambo w/ the 7.3L turbodiesel. Will definitely be re-watching this as I plan my build. Huge thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed the tour! You’re welcome to email us at theorybybecky@gmail.com if you have any specific questions, we’re always happy to help! Or find us on insta ☺️ happy building!
@@theorybybecky Thank you so much! I will reach out soon!
That's beautiful, a little home on wheels.😊 I love seeing dogs well cared for, those are 2 lucky dogs. New sub☑
Thank you ❤️ my dogs went from Dallas street dogs to living the best life and that’s exactly what they deserve. I’m so happy I can give them the best dog life ❤️❤️
Awesome rig!
Thank you!
Beautiful work!
Thank you!
Building a rig is not easy, a lot of planning, time, trial & errors, but the outcome of your build looks professionally done. The layout was planned very well.
Thank you-we tweaked and fine tuned over 2 years of building. Thankfully Meade is very methodical and able to think ahead many steps. We are so happy with the outcome!
Loool! those dogs were head down duck walking across that bridge ...looked like they were lil bewildered looking straight down the whole time
It’s true, they hated it but they’re such good girls, they did it!
Love your build! I can't wait to trade in my road trek for an ambo! Can't wait to see more content from this channel!!! Yeewww!
Awww thanks!! You will love your ambo, I promise 😊 Meade is working on video 4, coming this Saturday!
nice build❣
Thank you! My husband is the talent I am the unskilled assistant labor 😂
looks pretty nice ! congrats , i hope ya'll can enjoy it to it's fullest 💛 ~peace~
Thank you! Two months in so far and enjoying it a whole lot 😊
Hey new subscriber here. Great rig wow. Job well done on that interior.
Our Ambo is pretty basic , spent more time , money and effort on that.
1 year on the road now and all is well.
We just left Moab now close to Boise heading north slowly.
Best of luck. Maybe we will cross paths one day.
Thanks for the sub! If you find me on Instagram, same handle, send me a message! We’re in the PNW for awhile and maybe can hook up 😀 we love meeting other ambos on the road!
@@theorybybecky will do. We are in Idaho heading north along the Oregon border side.
Where can I get the first music track that was playing?? That was nice
We pay for copyright free music. Let me ask the editor (aka the husband) ☺️
Hello a lot of work for marketing good courage
what's the wastewater to drinking water ratio on that ro system? also what system is it?
65 gallons fresh, 15 gallon grey tank. We have the Waterdrop 3 stage filter. Love it!
Wow beautiful 🤩 Do you have building video ?
Thanks! We have some videos of our building process, but nothing coherent and put together like these TH-cam videos. We were too busy building 😂 I think we will put out a compilation of building videos in the future sometime.
@@theorybybecky haha ok thank you 😊
Your background music is drowning you out... Thank God for caption. Nice build though. NYC
Thanks for the feedback. We’re still working out the kinks to making quality videos and gathering the right equipment 😊 next video I’ll speak from the diaphragm as my theater director used to say 😂
Song in the end of the video, please?
We get all our music from Soundstripe, it’s by Amherst “More than one way to go home”
What kind and size tires are those?
Falken AT 37x11.5!

😀
Very hard listening to someone talk when every other word is 'um'. Highly annoying
I hear you…I annoyed myself too when watching it 😂 unfortunately I’m not a professional, yet lol. Just a regular ole human being doing my best ☺️
I thought you did just fine!
Thank you 😊😊
Becky, you responded so kindly to Veronica's comment! Bravo to you! I had many things I wanted to say in response, but I chose to hold my tongue. (hehe) In all truth, I am not at all bothered by the "ums". I am too focused on the information you are providing and the adventures you are sharing to be bothered by somethinkg like that. Additionally, I say "um" probably every half word! My hubby and I LOVE your videos. We think you both are doing incredible. I like your "regular ole human being" speech. You don't come across scripted, you come across natural and very down to earth. We LOVE that. I have learned that there will always be people who will want you to change or do things a certain way to fit THEIR desires and preferences. I like to encourage people to stay true to themselves and only change something about yourself if YOU want to, and if YOU think it will make you a better version of yourself. Such a pleasant video this was! Thank you for sharing your build!!
Thank you so much ❤❤❤ you know I can only be myself 100% of the time 😂
Stop slapping your hands on that counter too please. It is so loud when you do that. Have respect for your viewers
Mike, get a life and leave her alone. Better yet, move on to another video. No one is making you watch this……and there is just no need to be so mean.
When you sand wood,you should always follow the grain,never go against it,
Because we didn’t have access to a planer, I had to use the belt sander to level the countertop. Once that was done I did the finishing sanding with the grain 😊
