Omg, my dad's ashes were put in a Folgers coffee can. Per agreement prior to his death. People thought we were nuts. Who cares! I hope to full time within a few years. Thanks for the videos.
This is the most amazing van I've ever seen. I love everything about it. It looks like home so I know it feels like home. AMAZING!!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR HOME WITH US.
What a delightful sense of humor! Wry and comic. Very inventive photo techniques. I was chuckling all the way from Dad's ashes in a peanut butter jar to the end. You missed your mark as a comedian, Dan but its their loss and our gain. Thanks for a lovely tour and some good ideas.
Excellent build function and quality! One element that I only see in the European mini motorhomes like Wingamm that I don’t see in vans conversion is a spacious living and seating area for at least 5 and with a good view angle to a TV or movie screen. I’ve seen on diy slide out in a pro master that allows you ample floor space if you’d like to stretch out and exercise out of the elements if your full time living. Another good design in a high roof van is under floor storage.
One of the best vans conversions I’ve seen and I’ve seen many. Great ideas! You must be catholic of Irish decent like my family. They always had good food, time, stories and booze for a good wake. You are very creative and funny guy. Your wife must be as lovely, if not more. Be safe on your travels.
To be clear, this van was built by a Canadian company Pleasure-Way Industries. I only added my small little touches here and there. I am, however, building my own version of best right now! Please check it out! th-cam.com/video/av-sVOXEaWk/w-d-xo.html
Again, I love the extensive thinking, planning, executing... thinking over, planning over... when considering everything in your layout. The outcome? A sweet quality and functional product!
First off, ur dad seems awesome. The skippy jar is amazing and really nice the whole family gets some ashes! 2nd i love that you have it so like u said it can return to factory settings. Ive had so many vehicle issues that i refuse to buy anymore. Ill only lease and i plan on leasing my van. So i obviously can't do certain things. I have some ideas. Not sure which will and will not work but this is always helpful! Thank u!
Oh you can certainly build it out using just the mounting points in the van. (No new holes) No, it won't be as livable as a real committed build, but as I have always said, it's all about your individual priorities and situation. You can make it happen.
Your builds never cease to amaze me! This one is beyond beautiful and as aesthetically pleasing as the last video build I viewed! I am captivated by your vibrational creativity!✨💫
You are my new favorite person. Love this van, your personality, and the video overall. Never have I been so entertained while watching a van conversion video. Thanks for the smiles. Happy holidays:]
Great ideas! I'm LOVING your idea for the iMac editing station. I've been trying to figure out how to set up my iMac properly in the van. I hope I can find your video on that.
Just an idea...for the sake of being green and creating more space for yourself. You could buy a nice permanent water bottle for hiking and daily use and install a water filtration system on the coach and get rid of the case of water bottles to free up space. Another thing. The leveling issue. You can request E&P Hydraulic Leveling System and any Class B manufacturer can install it. You get a hand held wireless remote and your ignition needs to be activated and your hand brake on. To retract just release the handbrake. Works seamlessly with all air suspensions.
I just love the skippy pb jar...wish my mom had told me where she wanted to be put! she is mostly scattered every place I and family have been to...even Vietnam where her brother was killed. Hope it makes her happy.
It's great you're conscious of hydration. Just curious, have you considered a filtered water bottle? It may save a little space, be cheaper in expenses per month, and be healthier. :)
Just found your channel, it's awesome!!! I'm designing my skoolie and your van ideas crossover well!!! Thanks for including all of the minute detail work, that most don't. Also, you're a hoot;) Thanks for all you do;)
My thought is fire extinguisher should be easy to reach from outside the van you would not want to use one when you are inside. You get out (to safety) then fight the fire without being exposed to fire/smoke/extinguishant)
Thank you and welcome aboard! The van tour video you commented on here is one of my first efforts. Many more stories have been told! I hope you watch them all! ;-)
hello, I just found your TH-cam channel as I am looking to purchase a Pleasure Way and looking at the Lexor Fl or the Plateau FL. It looks as though you purchased Plateau TS? Wow, I really like some of your modifications of your van - your shelf built over rhe cab area is nice and I assume that you do not have an issue getting up and down from the seats. I like cutting board and folding table near entrance of the sliding door. In addition, it looks as though you removed one of the bench seats and placed a three bottled wine rack and a replaced with a dresser with a computer station with folding table. As you watch the video you showed how one person slept but how do two people sleep? Good changes and I have enjoyed watching your videos.
The bed area, less the section I repurposed, is plenty big enough for two people. I am updating my PW to current features and then will sell it. You might be interested in knowing what I will be upgrading?
@@HumbleRoad Thanks for replying and your presentations are very professional and you must have been in the video or film industry? Yes, I would be interested in what you are doing with your Pleasure Way. I am curious since you build nice vans why not just build one for yourself?
@@robertpumphrey5122 Yes, Robert, I had my own advertising photography studio for decades. I AM building my own custom van. But I cannot sell my PW unless I make it a "Humble Road" PW. It is a 2011 Plateau and I want to update some of the systems. If you are interested, email me and I will discuss the upgrades and price. georgeamauroiii@gmail.com
lol, cute video, you did a very good job best arrangement in a van I have seen so far, Ilike how they are not attached tothe van, as a permenant struture, except for the kitchen counter and stove top, you have alot of counterspace more than I see in the flying clouds of the airstream. now question if you go full time where do you live if your van needs servicing and cannot be done in one day same day? how will you make money on the road once full timing?
Thanks for watching! All good observations and questions. I will be covering most of these questions in upcoming videos. Many RVers are permitted to sleep in their rig at the repair shop. I would consider it a deal breaker whether or not to use that service facility. There are many on line resources to find such a shop country-wide. Money on the road is a topic we could discuss forever! In my case, this channel is one source of income, so it is very important for me to do the best I can to keep my subscribers entertained. Did you subscribe? I hope you did! ;-)
Ok. Out of pure respect....i will not make any jokes about the peanut butter jars. However, my mind went crazy when the contents were revealed. A hour long comedy routine could be written about all that. But i will behave. Now tell me about chairs..how much? Really comfy? Good for a bad back?
My Dad and I appreciate your compassion :-) I bought those chairs from West Marine about 10 years ago. Used them on our boat for a 4 month season every year. So pretty durable, sitting out in the sun all that time. Can't speak to comfort for a bad back, I do not have a bad back.
Who goes outside their van and talks through the window to make a video? You must have been around some brilliant people in your career to have ideas like that and I think your humor must have started with your Dad. I feel like I'm learning from one of the great ones. You're a class act.
YOU ARE SOOOOO DARNED FUNNY!! LOLOLOL!! I love that you have Dad's ashes in the Skippy Jar (that made me LOL, but in a respectful manner) , you obeyed his wishes, and soooo sweet you can take him everywhere, and others in the fam have him too! Thank you for sharing all of this, you have a beautiful VanHome! God bless!
@@HumbleRoad I'm a South Georgia Italian! 😂 My mama was Italian. From New Orleans. I really like your videos. My husband will love them. I'll show him when he comes home!!
I love your Van.....it's amazing ! You've done a great job figuring out what to do to make things very comfortable. It's truly one of the best Vans I've seen on You Tube. Thank you for sharing.
Mr George Thank you for being you!. Ive had the best time watching you.
Wow, thank you
Omg, my dad's ashes were put in a Folgers coffee can. Per agreement prior to his death. People thought we were nuts. Who cares! I hope to full time within a few years. Thanks for the videos.
my dad's ashes were put in a trash can. Hey as long as it's in a can right ?
This is the most amazing van I've ever seen. I love everything about it. It looks like home so I know it feels like home. AMAZING!!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR HOME WITH US.
Good point about keeping the patio side clear! It drives me crazy when I see all the vans with the patio side cluttered
This is another of your gorgeous videos, thanks a lot for it. Standing outside and explain the inside is very cool....the details are amazing...
What a delightful sense of humor! Wry and comic. Very inventive photo techniques. I was chuckling all the way from Dad's ashes in a peanut butter jar to the end. You missed your mark as a comedian, Dan but its their loss and our gain. Thanks for a lovely tour and some good ideas.
Wow. What a pro. NOW we're getting down to brass tacks. Thank you.
You are funny. Like your sense of humor. Nice van too, practical is so important.
SUCH a nice rig! So well thought out and beautifully excuted.

Your van is great- especially with the screen door (something I have never seen before), very interesting and well done ideas you are sharing.

Love 😍your set up - that is high end van living!
Awesome modifications to your Pleasureway ... Thanks for the info !!
I think Jeff Dunham should make his next puppet like you! Smart, witty George Vanguy....you got the expressions down! Awesome 😎
Again, I love the extensive thinking, planning, executing... thinking over, planning over... when considering everything in your layout. The outcome? A sweet quality and functional product!
Very impressive. This looks really cozy.
Quickly becoming my best van tour!!
I like your sense of humor. Very nice set up you have there!
Your dad sounds like he was like you. Great job on this beautiful van.
Ireally like this layout, very nice.
My first time watching your video. Very entertaining and helpful. Really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Ros M Thank you!
I love your wit!
Love your videos! Love your van. Taking lots of notes and keeping files of your mods for future. Also love your humor. Look forward to future. Thx.
This is the single best van tour I've ever seen. You're hilarious.
Great video you are a genuine character well done mate

very creative solutions to storage and comfort....love rod at the end of the bed.
Beautiful, nicely done.
I loved when he kept throwing his laundry over and over🤣🤣so dramatic
Also when he takes the keys out of the ignition, hops out of the driver’s seat, and his head immediately pokes in from the passenger side. ROFL
Skippy jar with ashes. Subbed! Clean and sleek van not overly done. Thanks for sharing
Morena Trooper thank you for your enthusiasm and observations!
Agree, putting the frig. or bath on the passenger side is a no no for many reasons. Love your mods.
Your builds never cease to amaze me! This one is beyond beautiful and as aesthetically pleasing as the last video build I viewed! I am captivated by your vibrational creativity!✨💫
Thank you! 😊 This one, my personal van, is manufactured by Pleasure-Way. Mostly stock except for the few mods I made.
Humble Road Awesome! Thank you for sharing this! Your touches are visible indeed!🤗
i love how clean and organized you guys are .
You are my new favorite person. Love this van, your personality, and the video overall. Never have I been so entertained while watching a van conversion video. Thanks for the smiles. Happy holidays:]
Kind words, Holly. Thank you. Hope you subscribe, I'm heading out on a month long trip through the Southern States next week! :-)
Humble Road that sounds amazing! I hope you have an excellent time. I will definitely be subscribing:)
Love your humor, you remind me of my dad. I like all the ideas you shared with us.

Anti Petrolhead excellent suggestions. Thank you! The water system seems to be the less involved of the two.
Anti Petrolhead yeah and then you can buy a rocket ship and fly to the moon
Again excellent mods and tips. I will be making some changes in my van today.
Thank you for your ongoing support!
Some good ideas. Thanks!
I'm new at this, so your support is very much appreciated!
I just love the skippy pb jar...wish my mom had told me where she wanted to be put! she is mostly scattered every place I and family have been to...even Vietnam where her brother was killed. Hope it makes her happy.
Very beautiful.
Bro Singh, your van gorgeous why la, your dad put in my favorite skippy.
Your tips are really great in your videos keep up the great videos :) im sure this is very helpful for vanners
You’re hilarious. I love it!
WoW! That's beautiful!
Your so funny. Must have the wise guy blood in you.
Gotta love it
This was a great video. So many tips and tricks. Thank you
Love your laid back personality 💗 cool van 😎
Great Tips! Love you Van. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
You're funny, love your dry humor 🤣
You have a beautiful Van. Nice and organized.
This is a great video, I like how you shared solutions to issues
Cool van great job thxs
You bet
Love your video. Had me giggling. Love your van too.
It's great you're conscious of hydration. Just curious, have you considered a filtered water bottle? It may save a little space, be cheaper in expenses per month, and be healthier. :)
Beautiful van!
This is a great video thank you. And thanks for sharing some of your best secrets
Any time!
Nice, very nice!
Outstanding job. Subscribed...
Thank you, Derrick! I really appreciate your support!

Thanks for all you do;)
Welcome to Humble Road!
Love this van more than any of the hundreds I have seen🤪
New sub. So glad I found you. Really learned a lot. Thanks
My thought is fire extinguisher should be easy to reach from outside the van you would not want to use one when you are inside. You get out (to safety) then fight the fire without being exposed to fire/smoke/extinguishant)
Good point!
Just found your channel. Subbed. I enjoy your videos. Thanks for your B input.
Thank you Brad and welcome!
I wish you would have started with your name and what kind of van you have for newbies like me. You went straight into it.
You should have started with video #1 instead of further into the catalog. Go back and start from the beginning! 😝
Super video!
Even though we never met, your father will be forever thought of w/every glance of Skippy.
I had that same thought. :-)
Just found you. I like your style!
Really like your van I'm very envious
Who is this man? Is he famous in America. Sounds like he is a high flyer to me. So funny to watch and his voice is amazeballs.
Yep, I'm a high flyer all right... 😜
I'm glad you found my channel. Now go watch ALL my videos. Go ahead, we'll wait!
New subscriber-& Love your Van!!--Very Nice!!
Thank you and welcome aboard! The van tour video you commented on here is one of my first efforts. Many more stories have been told! I hope you watch them all! ;-)
Funny Guy! 😁
Very inspiring! Yours is the first van I could consider with no slide out. BTW, when are you getting back to Goliath? I really miss that show!
Ha!
Im on confius now... Wanna laugh or be seriusly face ... He talk behind the bus ... Lol 😂😂😂😂😂
:-D
Second Video, my mother had net curtains like that.
Great video than you!
You are hilarious!!
Love the whole van ! Where can I get that Houghton AC in the US?
Advanced RV, Ohio. Tell 'em George sent you!
Get tips, just found your channel, subbed.
Great video! You must be a Virgo.
Leo
روعه 😍😍😍😍
I want those type of folding chairs I can't even find them
Those chairs came from West Marine.
Loose the buddy heater and get the Wave 3 instead. It's a lot more safer . I don't trust the buddy heater at all. Just to let you know. Thanks
Even though many many van dwellers rely on and use the Buddy heater without a problem, I am inherently a big chicken, so I'll check out the Wave.

Mine is a Pleasure-Way Plateau TS. Pleasure-Way has a few class B floor plans to choose from.

Such a shame that I am just now discovering this wonderful van builder, 3 yrs after I built my van.
Welcome to Humble Road!

his idea is a million times better then some drunk waying his unfocused camera around....GREAT IDEA , 5 STARS !!

Maybe Skipper, he mentioned a boat a couple of times.
9 jars!!
I will never look at Skippy the same way again 😂
:-D
Me neither 😭😂🤣😄😆 I couldn't believe it. And where do people find a blue Skippy jar?
This entire family seems like a crazy italian or mexican family.
@@HumbleRoad Where is your accent from? Are you Italian? I'm half. 😊
