It's been a long process but we are so excited to finally show-off our 2022 Ford Transit Van Build! Here is a link to everything that was shown in the video: - Blog Post: www.katieandjoeonthego.com/all-posts/2022fordtransitcampervan - Amazon Storefront: www.amazon.com/shop/katieandjoeonthego
Clifford looks absolutely amazing! I'm planning to make a build out of the same model Transit and I was racking my brain trying to figure out the water system along with working space for two people and a full shower. Seeing your build really gave me some inspiration and the tools to solve the problems I've been facing when trying to work through things in my head. Thank you so much for the excellent tour and I wish you both the best on your adventure! :D
Beautiful van build. You guys did a wonderful job 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. I plan on getting the same van and doing the build myself. Do you guys have a detailed layout of your electrical system? That will be my only concern. Thanks.
We bought a package from @Explorist.Life for our electrical system. Detailed layout, cables, components, and so much more. The electrical system was by far the scariest thing for us!
Awesome video guys! I will start my build next month and had a question about the a/c unit you have. How long can you run it with the 570ah battery bank? I will be a full timer in Texas.
Hi Katie and Joe, my 2023 van is coming in next month and I found out the dealer ordered me the 148 extended by accident (I ordered the 148” non extended). How has your van been for parking and getting around parking lots etc. with the extra length?
The EXT is long but definitely not as long as the Sprinter 170 EXT. You will not be able to use a single parking spot with the EXT, we have to pull thru and use two spots. Both drive fairly similar, it's only parking where things get tricky!
If they were the only source of power, it would take forever to fully charge the system with absolutely no power draw. Think Arizona in the middle of summer. We did notice when we were in Alaska how important the solar was to keep us topped-off. It gave us usually enough power to maintain our level with normal electric needs. The moment the solar is not working, and we don't have long days driving. Our battery system gets up 5-7 days.
@@nelsonsoaresusa We go back and forth with wanting more solar panels but for most of our summer trip (Alaska) solar was completely useless as the cloud cover was pretty strong, so it really would not have been helpful at all.
We got so tired of building that we had to stop filming when we got to the shower portion. Wanted to get it done, so not really any good footage but throw question our way and we will answer them! As for the Laveo, it’s the best investment for the van. We love it, we tell everyone to buy it. So great
@@katieandjoeonthego I can imagine.What is the width of the cabinet between the bed and the shower? And does it sit right in front of the left wheel well?

Blasting our A/C all night (8 hours) at 67* takes about 20% of our battery power.
Where in the van did you locate the shower? In front of the pillar that's in front of the wheel well?

What is your electrical enclosure made of?
Do your 200w solar panels fully your 570a/hr batteries adequately?
Great build and van BTW guys!
Well done

Deck is nice but I'd rather have more solar. At least 500w.

Great job! I love to see your videos. I like your van built ideas and designs . If you don't mind, roughly what is the estimate cost for your build?
Thanks. C u on the road.
Hi there, looks amazing! How high is the ceiling with the floor and ceiling all built in? (Asking for 6.7” boyfriend)
Where's the shower build-out video? Do you still like the Laveo?

Where does your shower drain to?
Clifford the Big Red Van 😂
It’s fitting 😂
Wait a minute....didnt this dude do very cool work on motorcycles???....and now hes moved onto campervans!?!?! NICE!!!!!
lol, yes! Joey also has @burtonimotors as a channel
Having an exposed bath, with the toilet, is NOT esthetically pleasing to me. Otherwise a really good build.
