By request: Exterior (short) tour of the van I call home ;) 1975 Chevy G30 1-ton van 24" high top 320 watts solar 26 gal fresh water 4" lift 350 ci V8 blah blah blah..... This was my Grandpa's van until he passed in 2005. I have kept her up and running for the last 11 years. I live in this van full time and travel around, mostly the mountain and southwest states.
On Cool Van !!
Thank you! I just love this old machine…..if it breaks, I just fix it every time. Here’s to fifty more years🚐💨🤘🏽🐾🐾❣️
I just had to subscribe to see the journey on making that Bus Awesome !!
@@Adventures_With_My_Dogs It’s shaping up to be a nice rig!
Have you ever been to the Rainbow Gathering?
Nice job man
Great home with history 👍🏼
Oh that was wonderful! As soon as I heard that opening drum beat, I knew what it was. So a Deadhead too, huh? To use an old label. Seeing the Golden Gate was great too. Thanks!!!
Hi Dave!!! Found your channel among my subscriptions (thank you) and watching a few videos I really dig you! You seem like a super nice person with a lot of cool attributes. The van looks great. Is it raised up a bit? Looking forward to viewing all your videos here on out...on the open road!!
Awesome stuff right there loved it ! I miss the Lil bit of traveling I did for 16 days it was one of the coolest things I ever got to do.
This was pretty awesome 👏🏼wish it was longer than 3.08 minutes.Is that your music in the background?🎶🎶
The music is The Grateful Dead
Sweet Van Dave.. Pretty awesome story it being within the family also. We need more vids of this Rig :) But if you don't, I'll film it at next years RTR if your there. It will be my first one. I'll trade you One of my superb omelettes for a bowl of your famous lentil soup??,,haha... hope all is well man....subbed!!!
Thanks Z Shark!! I think Grandpa would be proud;) You got a deal on the omelette trade for sure! As long as we can talk fast cars and motorcycles! Take care bro!
"Going down the line" woo hoo!
Hey Dave, are you sharing your van life stories anywhere else on social media other than RUclips? Can we follow you in other places?
Hi Karin! RUclips is the only "social media" type of site I really get on. Sorry ;(
Van Man Dave No sweat! I was just curious. There's a lot of van folks on Instagram, too, so I was wondering if you were there. Peace. ✌🏼
Have a great day Karin!!
Van Man Dave You, too! Ramble on. Drive hard & live free (lol - the van version).
This terrain looks familiar. Are you here in Utah? I bought a high top 96 Ford recently. Can you tell me where I might go to get solar so that I'll have wifi this summer out on the road? Ate there places that install? I don't want to get ripped off that's why I ask the question. thanks in advance.
Hi Olivia! This was shot in San Lorenzo canyon in south-central New Mexico. Very similar terrain than I've seen in Utah;) I have always done my own installation of the solar equipment, but I would suggest buying equipment online for a much better price than a typical solar store and asking around for help to install. Heck, I might even be able to help! Congrats on the van!
Haha! Nice! Good to see you have a channel. I've subbed. Ramble on! 👍🏼✌🏼
That's a smart looking van , i bet that big wheels mess up your paint a bit .
I'm a van dwelling musician and would love to jam with you!
Very cool!! I tend to spend a lot of time in the rocky mountains and desert southwest these days. Do you make it out to these parts very often? I always love a good Jam!! *Namaste*
Love it! Where was the tarantula at?
Faywood Hot Spring in SW New Mexico. I swear he was doing laps around my van! ;) Thanks for checking this out!
😂👍🏼 We are going to camp out at the city of rocks this year, have you been there? I hadn't heard of Faywood, is the hot springs outdoors?
Yes, City of Rocks is great, very interesting place. Faywood is actually only a few miles away and there is very reasonably priced camping there with many outdoor hot spring pools. I highly recommend Faywood if you are in the area;)
Thanks!
I recognize that road at the beginning of the video. Isn't that near Canon City, Colorado? This is a great video. It really shows some of the places you can find when out traveling this beautiful country of ours!
That sure is. A little west of Canon City! Thanks for checking it out LOLA!
Van Man Dave Yeah! I noticed you've got some Colorado connections here on your channel. If you're ever up in NoCo, come & say hi!
Will do Karin! Thanks for checking this out;)
Sweet van!!!!!
Thank you very much! It was my Grandfather's before it was mine. Love this old rig!
That makes it that much cooler!
great video dave watched it like 4 times
Aww, thanks you guys!! I am really enjoying your channell too! Love your style!!
Very nice, even I like that chevy 😀
Thanks van man!!
Nice!!!
Thanks brother!!
Great Video! I have seen a few of those places :-) Thanks 4 sharing :-)
Thanks for checking it out! Take care and safe travels!
Nice to meet you at the. RTR too :-) Love the van and the music. How about an interior tour?
Nonstop nomads did a brief tour of the van at RTR. I have to admit, I have been too lazy to do my own tour video but I will soon! Thanks for checking it out!!!
And it's a real camper van
50 square feet of heaven!!
New sub here from RUclips event! I think we met at the RTR I was your nabour across from you with the black trailer, didn't get any lentils soup though lol
Right on Sam, I'm sure we did! Next time on the Lentils, for sure ;) Safe travels!
Cool van love the old original paint.
Right on MJ, thanks for checking it out!!
Dave thanks for all the hugs RTR was fun and I felt right at home around you guys. I think I will be changing the name of my channel in that it just does not fit me. Love the rocks you have quite the eye for them. You really do keep on rocking in the free world. Ever in the South would like to see you here. IDK if you like Mardi Gras I don't but if you go to small towns and remember where you are you can have a good time.
Hey brother! You just made my day!! Really nice to meet and hang out with you at RTR. I hope we can catch up again in the future. Really enjoyed your rig and ideas! Safe travels my friend! VanManDave
I am going to formulate a camper that has solar and fridge I have no plans to go out West like that again. I end up out there wandering around that will be good but to drive there 1500 miles in 24 hours not going to happen if I can help it. Good to know If I need to do those things I still got it? It is nice there to be sure it has been raining since Dallas. I will be getting better at the guitar plan to practice a little every day. I love my grid tied life I might live in an old trailer but that power line,tv cable, and water/sewer line is what counts. Dave I am 2 miles away from a Walmart neighborhood market less than 20 from a Sams club. I have a Cabelas less than 10 miles away and a Bass Pro shop less than 20 also have tanger outlet mall down the road. I can be at an LSU game in 30 minutes or Bourbon Street most nights 45 minutes. I ever need the specialists there is a cancer center,cardiology center, neurology hospital, all 30 minutes away. I know where I live I got it made. My daughter was sick this week she was rushed for emergency surgery appendix then she needs to rehab so I will be taking her to the PLFT gym which is an easy 15 minutes from my home. I don't feel the stress of most folks because I stay home all the time I need to make it look a lot better here but other than that I have all I need here most the time. I need to get the solar and fridge for my camper so I can escape the storm that happen around here but other than that goo place to live as long as you have AC. Oh I opened that package for the stones and the glue still works you don't need to hot glue them on just press them all back down and slide them in a paper sleeve that is see through. I wish I bought 20 of them I know I can sell them here for $5 each easy.
I totally get it. There sure are things I miss being on the grid. Sure was cool hanging out with you bro. Take care my friend!! Dave
ruclips.net/video/rRAAqofOOQo/видео.html Interview and van tour at the RTR!
that was fun, thanks.
My pleasure Joe! Glad you enjoyed.
THAT.....WAS.......AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks brother Dan!!!
Right on! Beautiful spaces!*peace
Nothing left to do but smile, smile smile!
nice van! of course I'm wondering what the inside looks like ;) you've done a good job keeping up on it. I know it's harder with those older vehicles.
Thanks PG!! The old van has actually been quite reliable for me. It's less complicated to fix usually, than some of the newer rigs. Just uses a whole lot of fuel!! Safe travels!!
Aww thanks! Yeah safe travels to you as well. I agree I like the older vehicles too for soo many reasons and yeah easier and more straight forward to work on when you can still find the parts.
Very Nice Van!
Thanks Christine!! ☺ Love your channel!
I sure appreciate that! Thanks so Much!
That's a cool ride man!
Right on Mudda! Thanks for checking it out brother!

Yabba dabba doo Dave nice to see back on YT. Them wheels give that bad ass van an awesome look. Take care` Dan.
Thanks Dan! I am really happy about the extra ground clearance, I can get in and out of a lot more places now.

Sweet Ride ;)
Built back in the day when a van was a van! Shagadelic! lol P.S. I bet a lot of weed has been smoked in that van. :-)
Thanks for watching!
Most reliable vehicle I have ever owned! Now the gas mileage.......not so good.
you have many engine "Swap" options available with this Van,
True. I daydream of a fuel injected small block paired to a nice overdrive transmission........................ now that would be nice!
