I met Jarrod in San Diego. I'm one of those southern, no bs guys, and I got along great with him. Super cool guy, very intelligent, and I was honored to have met him. I'd say that he is a prime example of the personalities that embrace vanlife (humble). Best of wishes on your adventures!
Yes, he is great people and I’m very glad to have met him as well.
Right on! 👍
Omg. Such a beautiful dog!
I LOVE your build, and the bed looks very comfortable. Ambulances are made for their duribility and make great homes. And all the outside cubbies are awesome!
I've been in my small van for 5 years. Looked at all different options for my next vehicle and a 4x4 ambulance has my vote. They are so cool. Only downside is the headroom. After not being able to stand in my van I really want something I can stand in... But this is a nice home sir. Goodluck.
Yeah, I def need headroom
48-16, Good job I like your conversion blessings to you in Jesus name. I like your dog so adorable!
The dog is adorable!! So sweet ❤️
Jarrod's ambulance is Awesome! I think these are the best conversation vehicles out there. I would love to own one of these except I live in NYC, and our regular ambulances used for saving lives can barely get thru the traffic let alone me using one leisurely. LOL! Great tour Rav! And thanks for including the EXTERIOR of the vehicle. A lot of people do these tour videos and never show the outside. I know you're frustrated with RUclips, but you have a lot to offer, so keep going. You're finding your niche. 👍🏽😃
Thanks 🙏🏼
Buying a ambulance is so smart because they are already insulated great and the storage inside and out and they are built to last and take wear and tear so this is the perfect home on wheels! and this one is built perfectly.
So, true I got the same with my SnapOn truck but it’s not a 4x4. This is an amazing Rig
Insulation is NOT ideal. I have numerous manufacturers "boxes" here. They mostly insulate just for noise dampening. The units are designed to heat and cool actively from a/c units and heaters known as "mini splits." I am building out one curreny that is stripped down to the framing. I will use closed cell spray foam
This video is PHENOMENAL! It's hard to start a youtube channel, but you're doing so amazing :) Great job!!
Hey, thanks so much. I actually started this channel going on 4yrs ago, but just recently changed the name and direction.
I think it's your best video yet! You must meet interesting people in the road, and this could be your way of sharing the realities and inspiration of vanlife life.
Thanks Ken check around I have some other tour videos. I think this is the best one I’ve done so far. Thanks so much for watching hope you’ll subscribe if you’re not all ready
Nice! Magnets much stronger than gravity 👌🏼
Very inspirational. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I have a magnetic bar from Harbor Freight in my RVambulance and holds beautifully. Mine is mounted in the narrow cabinet formed by raising the counter over that center seat...
Good job looks great 👍👍👍🇬🇧
Thanks 👍not my Rig though I just did the tour for my channel
Great set up. I keep looking at these Ambulance builds and thinking I may go this route over an extended van.
Its a great deal of work to dismantle and you do lose space behind already installed cabinets. They leave a lot of space in between wall and cabinet. Not always the best choice over a clean van.
You guys should follow Earth_Media on Instagram I jst do the tours
Intéressant
If you buy an ambulance, it’s illegal in many states to have the red lenses. On the lens, you will find a series number and perhaps the mfg. You can find clear or amber replacement lens on Ebay. There are usually just 4 screws to replace them.
Great info, it's not my Rig I just did the tour of this Rig, Jarrod has sold it and moved on since this video was filmed a couple years ago.
Great show great topic.. thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, Sumner!
Fricking excellent build, subscribing to PureLit now. Really like all your choices like the vehicle, engine type, heating, compost toilet. I can tell you've done your reaearch. Good stuff, cant wait to see some videos of some of your adventures. You mentioned you might be making your own urine diverter? Is it going to be 3d printed? I was just thinking it would be so cool to see a van life individual with a 3d printing setup! Anyway, have a great night.
I just did the tour video...be sure to subscribe to PureLit on RUclips and ask Jarrod any of these questions over there. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!!
Love it
I plan on getting one in a couple of days a 2005 4x4 E450 low mileage and 7.3L V8 turbocharged diesel. This video helped give me a few tips and ideas for the interior. Thanks
Very welcome, it’s a very small space for living if you’re fulltime
@@NOMADNEWSTV visit my site and check out the rig I ended up getting. A 1990 Ford F350 Military ambulance 4x4 only 18k miles. Maysanautosalesllc.com
That's cool bud
Open the other side of the cabinet lol. Nice flashlight jam
😁👍
Nice I like
Thanks for liking
I saw a build counter lifts up comode under can lift up And a shower is built in so when counter is down no one knows its a shower and commode room 🎉
That is one beautiful vehicle! Where did you get it?
15:43 - did you add those black Velvac mirrors to it, or did it come with those? Very good mirrors!
15:37 - Also love that chrome grille in front. What is its function? Did you add that on?
18:54 - I would use this cabinet for a shower. It would mean removing some cabinets on other side, but... you will have advantage of extending your shower room out a bit with a possible slide out potty below. Potty can slide out from under a cabinet on inside or be elsewhere. If you put the shower in front, you have to mess with existing wiring and circuit boxes, not easy and dangerous near water.
19:11 - The one thing I would do differently from you, is the platform bed. Why do you need a garage underneath with so much external storage, esp to store trash? Trash under bed is not healthy. The bed prevents an open feel and access from rear. The bed blocks the rear cabinet from being used as a shower. The bed would be better off being a slat pull out style from the installed long bench seating inside. This layout will give you a open feel and much more functionality and invite people in.
With the 4 x 4 wheels what is your mpg on this rig? Would it be very different without the 4 x 4?
Regarding the batteries, here is a tip: I saw another Vanner use recycled Nissan Leaf Lithium batteries. Apparently they were still in great shape, but no good on a car. At 55 amps and 8V each, she got 440 watts of Lithium for $1140 total and they worked just fine. Look into that. Its a huge savings.
Very nice rig and you did a great job! Thanks a lot for the tour!
You should follow Earth_Media on Instagram I jst film the tour
haha coudersport pa, just up the road from us, ckeck it good underneath for rot, Pa salt ya know!
Just a little advice, you might want a professional installer to check your heater installation for proper ventilation! You don’t want to have a problem with ventilation and take a chance on carbon monoxide poisoning. I used ThermoKing when I had one installed in my semi!
It's not my Rig I jst did the tour, but Jarrod now has a business building out campers and installing diesel heaters.
When you need maintenance or break down? Who fixes them?
Ive seen a few videos on his rig and Im surprised he hasnt figured out his shore power system yet. He has no need to unplug his inverter and plug in an extension cord. The white receptacle just aft of his propane locker, right by the Emergency logo, is a shore plug which is wired directly to the inverter. It is most likely a Vanner 1050CUL inverter/charger so when he hooks up to a shore power source, it powers the inverter and charges his batteries all at the same time. Granted its only a 15a 120v passthrough but unless you plan on running 2 microwaves at the same time, you should be fine. I wired the shore power plug on my ambo build into a transfer switch so I could add an on board generator without having to run an external cord to the shore plug.
That’s great info Dave I’ll pass that along to him. I have the same problem with my SnapOn truck I can’t figure out how the system works either lol also I was the first one to tour his Rig other than the San Diego News lol
He is already selling his rig for 38000.00 ........he did not last long
Keep the induction just add hooks for the mugs above the knives. You can add a slim shelf with retainer or trim and put plates against that wall.
not my Rig, I just did the tour for my channel.
I am thinking of a diesel heater as well. Initially i was going to use a wood stove but I think you sold me on the heater.
I think diesel heaters is the way to go!
Hi. So unlike 90% of the Ambi builds on RUclips, you have kept pretty much as-is. Which is encouraging to me who can go into anaphylactic shock thinking about getting into the wiring and pulling panels. So how did you manage the cabinet cutting for the bed? What did you do about power for the house? How did you do it? (Solar? Outlets? Water? Pumps? Cooling? Kitchen? Thanks
Not my build, just did the tour of this Rig, but it's been sold and not sure who owns it now. Thanks so much for commenting.
Awesome! you remind me of a paramedic and your white teeth! do you know if they make rigs like this in a hybrid? p.s. your doggy is so cute, he looks like a thinker.
Nice rig. 👍
It really is I looked at these back before I bought my first Rig.’
I'd buy one if I could find a 4x4. Until then, I'll be going with a large 4x4 SUV. I won't be able to stand up in it but I'll be able to go places vans can't reach.
Yeah, I wished I had 4x4 as well but I’m City dwelling most of the time and not being able to stand to gets old quick
I can see that. I wouldn't consider something I couldn't stand in if I had to be a urban dweller. No way. Lol.
I am thinking of a 4x4 but not being American , I wonder where I can go of road in the US? I live in California and will mainly go to the neighboring states and California .
I love builds like this, but that “toilet” literally RIGHT NEXT to the stove, is grossing me out....
Diesel heater and cubic mini combined (so you can use wood when possible, or diesel fuel when not) is the way to go in my opinion... yes, that means you need to find someplace to put the wood stove in an already cramped interior...
PS. Remove the emergency lights and the markings indicating it is an ambulance... even if you are in a location that doesn’t mandate it by law, there are legitimate reasons why so many states DO mandate it... leaving it marked as an ambulance is totally uncool!
I jst did the tour of Jarred’s Ambulance on this channel you should probably go follow Earth_Medic on IG if you want to communicate your personal opinions to him.
Personally his personal opinion is great right here on this thread. We are all thinking it!
Hey Rav, i hope that U plan on reporting about the young couple that got murdered this weekend in canada, they were van travelers treking across North America.
Yes they are on the list thank you!!
Xavier E.
How is that possible, Canadians are so nice and polite, was the murderer apologizing as he/she was killing them?
How come I haven’t heard anything about that?
I am going to try a GoSun solar cooker. A little pricey, but I am in a converted SUV and do not want to concern myself with fumes.
Sounds like a great idea 💡
I have a Chinese diesel heater for a couple years now it's awesome
I def wouldn’t mind having one for my Rig they seem the most efficient way to go.
@@NOMADNEWSTV best hundred and $20 I ever spent in my life
Did you cut the big hole in your floor? If I get one I want to have it plumbed into the diesel tank on my Rig
@@NOMADNEWSTV no small holes for exhaust one for air uses very little solar power mr. Buddy obsolete no fumes inside very inexpensive online I did change the thermostat to when you turn cuz it's easier to understand the factory controllers little bit confusing
@@NOMADNEWSTV i run my diesel heater off my solar panels 100 Watts from Harbor Freight right on the roof
Unless you're starting a compost bin, I find it unnecessary to buy compost material. Being single you can put a bag in your bucket and throw the poop away...
Good call
Why not find a rubber mat for the top of cook top to use when not cooking.
He’s talking about pans sliding off when he’s using it
Did you do your own four-wheel-drive conversion? Or is that how the ambulance came?
It ws done by Quigly
Wood burning stove, keeps it dry!
This thing still looks like an ambulance on the outside. Is that legal?
About how much did you pay for the ambulance?
I'm surprised you still have the lights (bar) and markings, I heard their illegal to have?
I'm also surprised your ambulance didn't come with AC, Heating (diesel) pre-installed (in the box)?
It’s not my ambo it’s Jarred’s I jst did the tour for it. You can find him on Instagram if you search Earth_Medic. He’s been all over the US don’t think he’s had a problem
I believe all ambulances have heat and A/C but they only run when the rig is on. They are HUGE power draws
That's also my understanding.
I'd stay with the induction cooktop. I don't cook while I'm driving.
I like the induction cooktop but I’ve had pans slide off my regular stove. I could imagine its way worse with that induction cooktop.
what kind of dog is that?
I am interested in an ambulance as well. Can you tell us a little about how you found this, how much you paid and how many miles is on it.
Look up Earthmedic on Instagram I just did the video tour of his ambulance
I wonder how he likes the memory foam in a box? We have one & I hate it. You literally sink down into the mattress. You would have done better to buy a real mattress. And I would have put the toilet under the bed. Right out in the open like that is kinda ick! Build a slider tray for the thing and put it out of sight. But I don’t have to live in it.
Overall I like the design of this build, BUT - the toilet is right beside the stove, and out in plain view - gross. What sweet co-pilot.
Right on guy I have a E350 Econoline ambulance with a brand new 7.3 powerstroke diesel which had under 100.000 mile when Carter County Had new Engine put in , Hey if you want I have enough mirror tint 5% limo on one side and mirrored other which makes it impossible to see in and nice to see out i bought 50’ too much just pm me and I’ll ship it to you at your POBox for free
Turned over the business to his partner 🤔
I read that as “I lost the business to my cohorts”
No, he decided he didn’t want to be in the business any longer so he took a very nice buy out and now lives a life of freedom
Really Good Video, Very Informative. But, i'm curious to know, what r your plans for the channel (As far as format)??
I'm on the verge of just deleting my channels and stopping/quitting the whole RUclips thing. Tis is my last attempt to see if I can make something work. I'm gonna try everything Nomad on this channel under the umbrella of Nomad Nation and see if I can get something to take off and stick and then possibly eliminate the others. I've been banging my head against the wall with this channel and my other one. I recently took 2 months off, I filmed this video months ago but was so uninspired I never felt like editing it and uploading it. Now, I am having the only success I've ever had on this channel thanks to Jenelle Eliana so I am gonna try everything under the sun to see if I can make this work. With this channel and my other channel, I have been trying this RUclips thing for 13yrs. I made a deal with myself New Years this year. If I can't get to 10,000 subscribers by New Years 2020 I'll just get a real job and delete the channels and move on with my life. It's not looking good on the 10K subscribers so I am just trying whatever I can to see if I can get anything to take off. I have five months. I just got a real job
@@NOMADNEWSTV Keep going man! success and failure go hand in hand. You can definitely hit 10,000 subscribers soon. You are right there, this build is epic, your content is great as well. I'd love to see some videos of even short trips kind of edited together showing day to day life, challenges, ideas, and just talking about your experiences. The realness shows through, and you have something special going on. I feel if you keep going, you may be on the brink of success for your channel (Nomad News)
One thing that really drives traffic is these super long comments, multiple video tags, and regular uploads on a particular day/time. Thanks for the excellent channel!
@@NOMADNEWSTV Hey My Brother, I understand ur frustration. But i think ur right on the verge of ur breakthrough. In my opinion, i think that U should stick with the Nomad News concept. But, Do Real Nomad News reporting.
@@ProlificInvention Thanks Man It's comments like yours that inspire me to keep moving forward!
@@xaviere.2071 So, far that's the only thing that I have uploaded anyone has paid attention to. They honestly are the easiest videos to create, but I am a real VanLifer living in a retired SnapOn truck and so many subs have subscribed for that content. We will see but you def maybe right
May be find a way to hide that toilet...
He already sold this Rig
Toilet by stove and fridge... noooo
The fridge is next to the shitter. Lol
He doesn’t have a lot of room so anywhere inside is next to the shitter
Will he or can he keep the 911 markers on them legally? Just wondering.
Yes, but the emergency lights have to be covered or removed
@@NOMADNEWSTV thanks keep up the great work, nomad life for me being on less than 90 days!
Welcome to the Nomad Life!
I'm afraid I do not understand why you still have the stickers showing this to be an emergency vehicle! Aren't you setting yourself up for a possible lawsuit!? I love the ambulance but I don't like it still looking like it is an operating ambulance...
Stickers aren’t a violation, you are supposed to cover or change the color of the emergency lights
How much was your Ambulance 4x4 and how many miles on it my name is Everett they call me Rescue911RA
My Ambulance has same engine but not 4x4 and I get 16-18 mpg
It’s not mine you’ll have to find Jerrod at Earth Medic on Instagram
why haven't you taken off the medical signs ? how is that allowed?
