      Seriously! He could sell the plans. (Shhh, don’t give him any ideas.) I saved this to my Best Builds list so if I am ever to get out there I can study his build. Time is getting short- I’m 70 year old woman- a young 70- and pretty healthy but you just don’t know as you get older- the invincibility of youth begins to be replaced with practicalities. Like how to make some money quickly to afford the specialist to get my dogs ears healthy and then how to actually get enough to get a vehicle. To quote John Lennon- “Life is what happens to you while you’re making other plans...” but also- Life is good! Damn, well aren’t I feeling philosophical this morning! Lol

    Don’t need heated floors down here, Baja Sur. Surfing is good here. Bring your van sometime and visit us - keep it locked however!

    ok I've watched a bunch of these builds - though I'll never live in one myself. This layout is the most unique and works so well. Most importantly he did this high end looking build for an amazing budget. Kid is very enterprising, he should channel his energy in a startup of sorts.

    Anyone from San Diego knows where you are when you showed the sunset and the view in-between the 2 vans saying your not going to tell everyone where you are with the one big palm tree. LOL you should also go south a couple miles to really great surf spot parking lot. Plus when you did the out the back door of his van I saw my rental house on the beach.

      @@lass-inangeles7564 I'm sure it would be harder to clean. Lots of edges where crud can accumulate. But the uninhibited flow of up to 181 kilograms (400 lbs) of fluid rushing forward (Yes I realise that when full it's not going to move much) under brakes is a whole lot of mass to contend with. Perhaps divide into 2 or 3 tanks?
