      Nice van! Would you share information about your frig?

    • @RonInAVan
      @RonInAVan 7 лет назад +2

      OnlyMyPOV don't know much about the fridge I bought it at a garage sale just to try it out and it's been working out fine so far it's a Magic chef.

      Vexed Nation yes we are in Florida right now, trying to make the best of our road trip during this coronavirus stuff. Thank You so much for asking.

    Nice set up. I love how everyone always says "I'm not a carpenter and I've never done this before", yet they have these awesome elaborate van builds. LOL!

  • @eclipseks
    @eclipseks 7 лет назад +5

    You can do Hawaii. $1200 to ship the van in a container. Do that one last and sell it when you leave, or if you leave. Best of luck!

    I'm willing to bet that hundreds of builds were inspired by this dude! 5 years later.... inspired mine.

  • @diy_dirtbag
    @diy_dirtbag 4 года назад

    I love this van!! We tried to build our van as practical as possible and this is as practical as you can get!! You can tell how much time you spent designing it!!

  • @carlschleicher5516
    @carlschleicher5516 5 лет назад

    Nice build. Love the hard hat and safety vest, that's a 1st. Really like the safety cameras to check for police or thieves. Good job.

    That was a cool interview and tour of Ron in A Van. Thanks Nate. Happy to see you're still with us!

  • @joanmilano5302

    I think this is one of my favorite setups that I've seen! Great video!

  • @mynameistaken99
    @mynameistaken99 7 лет назад +7

    Such a brilliant setup, especially those security cameras. Smart guy!

  • @garrycole9187
    @garrycole9187 7 лет назад +3

    Very nice set up and great use of space and a whole lot of space there. Everything is in its cabinet and not just lying around. I think he has too much outdoor stuff and seem kind of redundant but if that is what he likes to do then that is great.

  • @derykmacleod4979
    @derykmacleod4979 5 лет назад

    Yeah, it is a nice layout. I like the pull out seat/toilet idea...it's practical.

  • @norasteel5353
    @norasteel5353 7 лет назад

    Hi Nate. Thanks so much for the tour of that nice man's van/home. It was awesome and yet simple! Take care~

  • @16Alain
    @16Alain 7 лет назад +7

    Very interesting Nate. This is something you could look forward to, interviewing other people who live in a van. You did a damn good job as a «reporter». It might open up minds and ignite taste of freedom and adventure in some.... For many you are becoming a reference in living a lot on the road with just a few things. Thank you and keep on being happy. It's the most important thing in life.

  • @MatthewSmith-to1hz
    @MatthewSmith-to1hz 4 года назад

    A very well thought out build. All you need is 4wd and a lift kit.

  • @bque9444
    @bque9444 4 года назад

    Rin's Chevy has the same light rust or stain area on passenger side roof as my van. I wire brushed it, primerering and painted it. Works for now.

  • @Franaflyby
    @Franaflyby 7 лет назад +1

    Very nice set up. the 14 dislikes have me wondering why they would dislike such a great build.

    • @denisfortier9716
      @denisfortier9716 7 лет назад

      they are robot (Artificial Intelligence program) to deny freedom tools for the population. Will Prowse get alot of them. The system function by paying taxes and mortgage etc...

  • @bryantford3054
    @bryantford3054 7 лет назад +1

    The hard hat & vest up front was a brilliant idea. Nice van. Don't think I could handle not being able to stand up or look out the window, though. You can definitely park that anywhere.

  • @DivineZeal
    @DivineZeal 7 лет назад +2

    Great interview, he has a nice setup

  • @norasteel5353

    i had to laugh when Ron just opened & quickly closed his door to the drivers station. awesome layout!

    @fernwehforevertearofjoy409 7 лет назад +4

    Wonderful share, Nate AND Ron!
    Nate...I enjoy your demeanor & style....great vids.
    Ron....your van layout & design is one of the best I've viewed and I'm amazed how quickly it was executed. While traveling the 49, maybe you could make a business of helping others with theirs?

  • @tammieparrishmiller3669
    @tammieparrishmiller3669 7 лет назад +1

    Fantastic set up! I would need more day light, but then you're not in stealth mode. This is really great, especially the 2 fantastic fans drawing air. That's one I hadn't seen yet and I will definitely remember that for my future van build. Thanks for doing this video!

  • @socaloutdoors7355
    @socaloutdoors7355 7 лет назад +1
