DIY to a whole new level. Bad ass y’all.
Thank ya!
Very nice build. And thanks for sharing. I enjoy watching your videos and thanks for sharing your journey. Looking forward to many more videos.
It’s amazing! You did an excellent job! Great design and layout! There’s a 30amp plug for you at the ranch whenever you are rolling thru Idaho!! Enjoy!!!
Thank you! We cannot wait to visit Idaho!
Dang it that looks SWEEEETTT. We done figured out this was a full-time thing when you all sold your house :). Awesome job...God Bless
A few of you knew what was up haha! She is still working but I quit back in March so I could finish this sucker up. I'm much less stressed now 😁
Lol...Amen. Hey I seen where you said something about remote work . I may be able to hook you up, let me know and I'll message you.
Congratulations on the build! It turned out awesome! Have a blast in MKE this weekend! Happy Birthday Harley Davidson!!🤘🏻😎🇺🇸🍻
Thank you! We will. Actually we've had more fun testing out the van than being in town doing the Milwaukee stuff haha
@@LifeontheBlacktop how do you like the Starlink so far? Good reception?
There are a lot of trees around us so it's mediocre at best. Standard stuff loads fine but it took 5 hours to upload this video lol
Great job, built very smart. I watch this van go from gutted out to where it is today, simply badass. I imagine you will be towing the bike with a closed in trailer everywhere.
bryan killed it.
Yes!!!!!! It’s going to be more awesome than it already was
It turned out absolutely amazing. Loved watching the build. Looking forward to seeing all your adventures!!
Mr B, you are smarter than a tree full of owls👍🏻👍🏻.. truly a craftsman of the top degree..(I know, I know, it was all Lady D😂), but if we ever cross paths, I will be happy to shake your hand and buy you a beer! GREAT JOB, brother 😎
I'll take you up on that. Thank you!
What a great job! You are the man. No body could have done a better job!!! 👍👍👌👌😁😁
Cool deal finally a completed mayor task. Fantastic job you guy’s.
Awesome job on van guys. I’m envious.
Holy crap it turned out nice!❤ Brian are we on vacation? Yes. Brian are we trash? Kinda.😂
😂
All I can say is WOW!!! That's nice.
Nice job guys! Can't wait to see your trips!! Been waiting a long time to see the van build complete. You really did a great job. Well worth the wait.
Hell of a job! Really did your homework! I was thinking of doing this to an enclosed trailer so I could haul our motorcycles as well. Also wouldn’t be an episode of Cribs without showing what’s inside the fridge.
Cool stuff. Looking forward to your travels.
Very impressive, Brian you tha man , Excellent job done. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇦🇺
Congratulations!!! You guys are awesome!!! love your channel!!!
Thanks so much!!
I never saw if you upgraded your alternator. Brian, you have thought everything through. Great job to both of you.
I haven't. I considered it but doing the math I should be OK with the stock 180. I figure if it fails, I'll upgrade it then.
OMG!!! No words to describe how well this turned out! Time for a lower 48 state road trip! Just amazing talent and skills brother, and the fun on screen you both had along the way. I’m sure there were off screen moments of climbing walls! Congratulations to you both!
Looks great ‼️ Fantastic job ‼️ Y’all have fun in it ‼️
We definitely will, thank you!
The van turned out really nice Can’t wait to see some of the videos from the air journeys and travels. Thanks for the video. Appreciate you.😎🥃🥃🫶
Great frickin job! Awesome Promaster. Congratulations. Hard work paying off.
Good job on the build. I admire the way you spent so much of the winter building the van. I think you will enjoy it. Looking forward the following you on your travels. See ya on the blacktop
WOW!! WOW!! That is such an awesome job you two did. Love and love you.
Thanks Jim!
IT'S SO GORGEOUS!!!!!
Nice job, you 2. Maybe I'll see you out on the open road. Ride/drive on.
GOOD JOB GUYS LOOKS GREAT
Wowza, what an awesome van. You did an amazing job.
Thank you!
You two did a great job! Amazing look.
Thank you! It turned out better than we thought it would!
Looks great!!! The blood, sweat, and tears can now be enjoyed for many many miles!!! Thanks for bringing us along on all your journeys!!
After all those frustrating moments when things didn’t work out the first, you two have produced a beautiful van to live in on the road. We’ll done! Dreams do come true, if you willing to put in the work. Hop to see you on the road sometime. Might Baja be in future dreams. Baja is VanLife heaven and a lot warmer winters than Nebraska.
Baja is definitely in our future!
@@LifeontheBlacktop then there is a good chance that I will run into you. I spent two months there last year living in a minivan. I plan on four months next year living in my Ambo conversion. And pulling a custom Heritage Softail trike conversion in a trailer. I found the best beaches for free camping and scoped out the best riding roads.
@@HogTide_Risingever feel unsafe? My family says it's a horrible idea to go but I think they just watch too much news :)
@@LifeontheBlacktop I felt safer in Baja than I do in downtown Calgary. No drug problems, very few people living on the streets. The locals are very friendly and for the most part, exceptionally honest. I met some people there who I consider friends. The military keep Baja safe for residents and visitors and Mexican people from the mainland vacation in Baja because it’s safer. And I never experienced any cartel actions. You have nothing to worry about.
Congratulations on finishing the van. I hope you have a great time and share it with us.
Congrats on finishing the van. Looks great. Keep up the good work. Hope you too have many fun adventures.
Thanks! Quite a relief to finally be done!
Awesome... Suggestion: you may want to consider a small pallet (for lack of a better word) maybe 18'' to 24'' square to stand on when using the rear outside rinse-off hook-up... Congratulations on your van/camper... Wishing y'all safe travels...
Outstanding work! very well thought out and executed! Looking forward to your travels and adventures!
The van looks great guys! 👍
Thanks Terry!
Y’all should be proud of an amazing accomplishment. 👍🏻
It turned out fantastic!!!! Can’t wait to see future van/bike content!
Thanks! We are excited for this new chapter!
My wife, two teenage boys, and two dogs sold our house in September of 2022 and hit the road in our Toy Hauler. We've upgraded to a 5th wheel and bikes have changed as well on our journey. Hopefully I can run into you somewhere along the road.
Everything looks great!
Thanks Ashley!
Great job guy's . Now start enjoying all your hard work...
man that really nice plus you both did it by yourself which make it even better. hate to say it but im little jealous
We surprised ourselves that's for sure!
Outstanding build! You will enjoy this rolling home for sure.
How in the world are you so much smarter than me lol. I have no idea how you taught yourself to build all that. You are a genius, little brother!
☺️
