Heyooo! How are you? I hope you are well. What do you think of Gladys 2.0?
Dylan Magaster Gladys 2.0 is looking mighty fine my friend! Silly question but, did you just find the turtle skull or the whole turtle? 🙄
🖤🦇
It was a full sea turtle, washed ashore. looked like it had been there for about a week.
Thank you for all the hard work Dylan. Makes me feel like I can live vicariously through you!
nice ...
Love her mods. The dark underbelly truck liner is nice. Really looking forward to this year. I bought the Titan book off of amazon that you recommend. Looking forward to reading it.
I did the van life for a while, had a 1985 Champion Transvan which is a lil class C motor-home, ran it all over Montana and Wyoming taking lots of photographs in Yellowstone and the Pryor Mountain wild horse refuge, then drove it down to Texas where my adventure abruptly ended when I blew the engine.
I wound up going back to Trucking for a few years until I bought a sailboat.
As fun as the van life was I much prefer sailing, I have a 42' sailboat now which has much more room than the van ever could, and it has a full kitchen, and 6'8" of headroom throughout!
That and the added perk of I can ride the wind to get where I am going! I really like that bit!
I have been enjoying your videos, keep up the good work!
You pegged it! A Transvan and a Sailboat are THE way to go! Right on!
What about the 🦈😱😱😱. We prefer a VanLife
Old Van Lovers are my people! Wisdom People! Love your Van, I just bought an, 88 Vandura.
One of my absolute favorite van videos. Great music and great vibe.
Got me into a sweet vintage van....where I am writing from right now -- 1000 miles away from where I began.
the beginning of this video is epic, laughed out load when your dirtbike fell hahaha
I’ve been following your channel for a little over a year and have been wondering what your experience has been like living van life. I love/miss this kinda content but you have AWESOME tour videos. Congrats on the new biz!
Stephanie Castillo agreed!!! I subbed hope you can support me back with a sub!:)
Is this the Stephanie Castillo of Montavilla Infamy?!! If so, this is Little Karla!! And Dylan is RAD!!! :-*
i love it van dwelling has been my dream because of you ❤ I'm 13 and I'm already planning what my van will look like
Exactly the same as me , im 13 and planning for my van as well
im 13 and same, im thining of living in a van
Jake Martinez aw crap Wtf me too exactly the same
Stay in school 13...you no business thinking about the van life...study hard and then work hard..then buy the big house to park your big van on your driveway...and not on my or some else driveway.
Joe Black ok boomer
Hahahaha the way you "repaired" your van is called 'jugaad' in India! :D
You the man!!
another kick ass vid. Luv your: "just do it and get it done" attitude, I procrastinate far too much... take it easy :)
You win the award for most innovative van life video ever. 🏆
I live in Texas and we go to the next get stuck a lot . You dig the sand out behind the tires put that sucker in neutral and push .. the only thing that sucks is we have a second person inside to hit the breaks
Awesome man, you are an inspiration.
You areincredibly entertaining and I like the editing style
Props Brother the truck bed liner actually looked pretty good.
you had me at that first statement. If you sit doing nothing, nothing gets done. So get up, and do what you can !!!
by far my favorite van set up i have seen
We love your camper van and your attitude too 😂 We have a 1995 GMC Vandura and we love it. See you camping somewhere.
Always a pleasure, good sir. loved the vid. Been patiently waiting for 2.0, siked to see the 3.0. Safe travels and keep up the great adventure!
How not to do things but eventually wind up with custom loves like a turtle cranium ornament, floor map, and moto rack. Love ya!
9:57 "It's kinda like livin' in...a van." xD
Enlightening update, bro. I'm fascinated with the sheer amount of stuff/gear you have fit into Gladys 2.0, haha I know you don't propose to be a minimalist, but dang. Can't wait to join you for the livestream.
This video is so clever and entertaining haha! Your personality and the good vibes you give off are just inspiring.
I got my 95 G20 with 063,000 miles and a wheelchair lift also!! metallic green paint, no hightop tho. I have a kx125 2 stroke on the back of mine haha. We are so much alike
I installed a Hightop roof from pick n pull (100$) and painted it to match. Fyi oreillys sells color matching paint for chevy gmc vans :)
I also sold the dirtbike and bought a street bike for mine so I'm legal now on streets
What is cool about having an older van is that you are not worried about modifying and of it, so very easy to make it your place. Enjoying your channel.
You, my dear, are a hoot! Love Gladys 1.0 and 2.0 :-)
Haha thats cool! l like your qwerky style of video. If you ever decide to fix the "cancer hole" use foam to fill it then fiber glass over the foam. You can premake the glass patch or use monofilm tape ( clear packing tape) if you decide to glass it in place. The tape gos over the glass and will make the surface glossy smooth after you remove the tape.
Next time the rust pokes through you could use a brush on rust inhibitor then you can paint over that. I’ve used it in the past and the rust hasn’t come back
"Because it works!" - words to live by :-)
You kept talking about Yucca Valley, which is crazy to me because its such a small town, and that's where I live! Small world!
lmaoooo what a roller coaster the first 3 minutes were! 🤣 you're an absolute gem, sir🐢
Just found you video! I JUST brought a ‘94 van just like yours YESTERDAY!! I’m stoked to sell it all and move into it. Let the adventures begin! ✌️❤️
YOOOO my G20's name is Gladys too!!! See ya down the road sometime my guy!
Thank you!
Probably the coolest setup i’ve seen, i dig it homie.
Hey Dylan!!! We are capable of WAY MORE than we think we are. SAFE travels, Be Careful Out There and THANK YOU for sharing.
Honestly I have always lived by the motto that we can do anything we put our minds to. Human potential is enormous. Lets all get on the bandwagon and make our lives what we want... not what we are told is what we need to do. Sick van. Nuff said
You got a new fridge! Proud of you. No more food flying around the van😂
Righteous intro. I can dig the music
I remembered and I’m glad your hand healed. I love your videos and you are amazing and an inspiration to me! I hope you have an amazing day!!!!
I’ve been w8ing for this since 1 year
Hey man, nice job on the van! And you also deserve credit for the high production quality of your videos. I like them. Keep up the good work, dude!
I have always admired your floor! Thanks for the tour!
I adore your personality and humor, endlessly entertaining you had me cracking up a few times.
You have a great outlook and positive energy. Much appreciated...Safe travels to you...
Super love Gladys 2.0!
just a heads up - your panels will continue to rust under the bedliner. Next time be sure to spray it with phosphoric acid (OSPHO) before you paint over it to stop the rusting process
Good to know. Cleaning up the cancer in my van as we speak.
The bike fall... classic.
Nice tunes. ..Double classic
Borderline. ...
Magic.
So glad he had the foresight to put a songlist in the description big ups.
Love the black bottom Gladys now has. Great video.
Lol, wow! Great video; lots of good information and very entertaining. Thank you!
This is so great! I'm watching this while I scarf down some lunch and then I'm going out to start ripping carpet out of the 1990 Chevy G20 I just bought! Can't wait til its home!
Your vid is awesome..the 🌈 was awesome...the map floor was awesome..your van is awesomely 😊trails..
LOVE the intro style and music. Like your van cabinets and doors are dancing to the music. haha. Well done.
Great Video and keep them coming. im working on my van come spring
Map of the world floor. I like it!
I love how you Dont sugar coast!
many new thoughts i have after watching this video. thanks.
Gladys is a tiny queen!
Hit those rim w flat black krylon. Don't even worry about taping em off
Best editing and van home.
The vote is in: you should do more videos with your shirt off!
Good job! Use polyurethane foam for big rust holes) Easy to use) In my country it's great business!))
A+ on everything but WTF with the duct tape repairs??? Buy a mig welder at Harbor Freight and patch the huge holes once and for all! May come in handy if something snaps off while on the road too.Excellent build Dude!
So i just bought a 95 G20 van paid a1,000 for it but it has well over 200 thousand miles on it needs work i can stand in it has 6 ft high roof . Hope your having a great time on the sail boat.
Great Video - and thx for sharing, and all the best to everybody from Isla Plana, Spain!
P.S.: Take yourself time man - we appreciate your work for us so much, and although i don't feel a second older than you and live like you part time (if i like to) (and if it is possible, see below), i just realized I have three kids, born 1988, 1991 and 1993, and you seem to me already much more of an adult as they do!
Weirdly the best intro I've seen keep being different 😃
I’m always watching OTHER PPL on your channel...refreshing to finally see YOU......yes I think Gladys 2.0 looks great........thanks for sharing.....from Houston Texas
Wowza !! Greet repair!! Looks great! I like your improvements!!
This is the first time Ive seen one of your videos! Love your van! Love the map floor! But especially love your sense of humor and that you are a BIGGG goofball!
I live in Baja Norte in San Felipe. Camped 5 years before coming here permanently
Nice videos Dylan,
Thanks and greetings from México !
How can you not love this positive energy?
wooow a lot of updates!!! it's becoming more warm everytime
Excellent video on the upgrades. You should do more vids with yourself in it to show off your personality.
12:48😂 Love that face
Just found your TH-cam station fabulous, great photography, inspirational, creativity in action you're the greatest and keep doing what you do it's appreciated by all. Subscribed looking forward to following you.
Awww the luv u have 4 gladys is so funny but u take care of the old girl
Nice video. I've seen a few from your other point of view. I like what you've done to Gladys . More importantly your getting some great use out of her.
Just found this video!! Really love it man!
I've been in vanlife for a year and just found this video. Great personality! Our vans are very similar: I have a '92 GMC with the same windows, same sized roof cap (mine has skylights :) ), and same color tone (grey-brown). Subscribed! Keep it flowing :)
2:30 Hand puncture occurs less than 2 ft from the Med Kit! You are "Amazingly capable".
LOL the part about people yelling at you about a bag hanging off your van 😂
You van build looks really good, and functional. Nice job.
Love the map floor😎! We have a 1995 21’ Roadtrek and love VanLife🚐🚐
Dude, you were cracking me the f up yesterday! With all the trick photography! And retro 70'a music! Awesome! Plus now I'm missing the high desert. And just the desert in general. I used to live in Ventura. Now back in NC, but still on the coast. And I saw your vid episode on basil lynch. I've seen him on instagram. I just "inherited" a 1990 coachmen on a ford e250 chassis! Nothing works, but she runs great lol. Keep on vannin, brah! ✌🏽️
Your videos are great man! Kc guy here hoping to be van traveling myself by end xof the year, love how she's looking!
*Instant karma*

Oh nice you still have her. Im jelly
I love it dude. My favorite feature is the dirt bike rack. Definitely something I want on my van! Can you do that on just about any van?
any van with a hitch.
i thought i was the only one that drilled into my van! haha, i had the same g20. same color. different high top. drilled the awning straight into the fiber glass haha. just sold it sadly. glad yours is going strong!
Great message for me now
The dude can play Starlord.. He's got the vibe 🤣

I can understand people who are scared of drilling into their brand new sprinter vans but an old van like that I would drill to Swiss cheese
