My jaw dropped, "HOLY HAIRBALLS", when I saw how many batteries you had in that thing. Yeah, you'll never have power problems with that.
Hahaha considering the only things I plug in are my laptop every few days and the speakers, it's beyond overkill. 🤷♂️👍
@@JCredTV You can probably run a standing portable, window or wall AC unit, a fridge and a microwave plus everything else on all those solar panels and batteries.
they look like starter batteries with PWM controllers, lmao

You must come from a rich family in order to change living situation (camper van, rv) every few years.
Biking with Panda, all deep cycle but thanks for coming out.
My brother bought a Frito Lay box truck back in the 70's.
He had a rig on the back of the truck holding the generator and water tanks.
He drove around the country painting new build construction,and loved it.
There is nothing more exciting than watching you build out a new vehicle every couple years. Your creativity and uniqueness are just the best. KORIThestepvanworld 😎
This has so much potential. Almost a completely clean slate on the outside and inside. I can't wait to see what it looks like in a few months
wise Move ! I am here in east Tenn. USA and after much research on all trucks/vans , Have decided to also settle on a small bread Truck , steel frame, aluminum wall and skin frame , easy to work on the engine, nice width, height, and length. and can design build to my needs. Look forward to seeing future vids, keep up the good work.
I've always loved step vans because of the room and I can't wait to see this when you're done with it
I got a original idea. When I was planing to get a step van to do. If you want to try this? You alway will be parking with the right side to the off street view. So I was going to make a 2 story floor on the right middle to back. And I was going to cut put back the cutout on tracks so you can slide it to the front and get the back all open as a porch. It’s high so people will walk below and can’t see you. Put chair out there and a table with a high view.
At the bottom you have a straight up stairs and underneath you put a bed or storage.
2 story would be so cool and nobody has done this before. You world be the first.
Wow, that’s a lot of solar😁 It’s going to be a delight to watch you customize the new ride! I have to laugh to myself because back in the early 80’s I kept telling hubby, I want a camper van. He comes home one day driving a step van😱👍😂 it had been an old bread truck! Lol well In the mean time our new business took off and we never had time to do anything with it so we sold it to a friend and he made it into his tool storage and did some mobile repairs. Best of luck in the new adventure😉👍
Looking forward to seeing what you do with this step van. Your conversions are always top-notched.
I can't WAIT to see what you do with that! Nothing like watching an artist standing in front of a blank palette--you can almost see the gears turning in their head.
In my opinion step vans are the best to build into vr conversion. Can't wait to see the final result.
this is why conversions are such a personal thing. Some of the previous owners did some things that I would not do. Just like you are doing some things I would not do.
With your knowledge, inspirational lifestyle, great content, etc you should have over 100k, 200k subscribers.
Stepvan has unique personality …
Keep trucking👍💯
*Looks In pretty Good Shape!*
I am looking into the same setup one year!
But i would make her a 4x4 LOL!
Amazing find! Really looking forward to seeing how you convert your new home.
Congratulations on your new van look forward to seeing what you’re going to do with it
Been thinking on this for some time. Each type of truck has its selling points and drawbacks. Started by looking at step vans, but many of them have an open cockpit, and I wanted privacy. So I started to look at cutaway vans. Unfortunately, cutaway vans are arbitrarily no longer than 16 feet in the box and 95% have roll-up rear doors. So, now I'm swinging back towards a step van again because they can more easily be 18 feet from the rear of the driver's seat., and they're more likely to have barn doors in the rear.
JUSTIN, BEST OF LUCK, SEEMS LIKE YA HIT A GRAND SLAM TO START WITH!!!!!!!!!
I know you're going to do your thing on this project can't wait to see the finished product 😁...
Very cool Van Justin. I like how you always do it right.
Oh, my you are Millionaire (11)👍 keep trucking free man
Looking forward to what you will do with your new home! I can see simple and minimalistic inside! Have fun with building your home! Take care!
step van. heck yes. it's not too big. happy for you. nice choice.
Like they used to say about Volvo’s... boxy but good! This one is really your canvas, more than any of your projects so far. Will be neat to see. GL!
V70 T5-R :D
Congrats! Do miss the purple! Looking forward to watching your build. Have fun!
I love your decorating and color ideas. I can't wait to see what you're going to do with all that space. And all that space for living. Do not forget an oven this time. You will not get fat on pizza. Pizza does not make you fat. :)
First Eric buys a Class A and now you buy a Step Van? Oh my head is spinning. lol . Cant wait to see the progress and how you adapt to a bigger vehicle in an urban environment!
I bought this a few weeks ago, I also don't really watch RUclips so I don't keep up with others, but several people told me another RUclipsr also just bought a stepvan this week. As for size, as I said it's about the same as a Sprinter, it's smaller than some vehicles I've had before, not a problem.🤷♂️
nice step van, lots of room. Looks like a fun project.
welcome to the step van RV community!
I knew you'd be right on this one 😁
Kick ass, and a very nearly blank slate to customize as you see fit! Congrats!
Wow got a really nice house there. Good find buddy
Looks great Justin! Glad you got what you wanted!
Thanks for the info on transferring insurance from commercial to rv. You have spared me from many future hassles and headaches i think. 🥰👍👍
Really cool , lots of luck with your project.
Well now I know what I need to save up for. A setup like that is my dream van/tiny home
Love it funny how we both joined the StepVan community at the same time! lol
Hey Justin greeting from Europe. Italy to be exact. Me and my husband have been following you for a while and it's been a lot of fun. Compliments on your new van. Can't wait what you will make out of it. Keep on rocking!
7:37 Hat tip to Burton Cummings OF COURSE!
Congratulations, you have to be going crazy with ideas and plans. Blank canvas!
Nice setup! Looking forward to seeing what all you do with it!
Your voice is perfect for radio or news on TV.
Sick!!! Finally a build worth watching haha I can't wait to see what you do!
It's basically an 'old school sprinter van'. Can't stop a rocker in the free world. "KEEPonRockin"
A brand new 2019 Utilimaster is identical to mine. The body hasn't changed for decades. I love that.
Have fun making it your own, although already nice job. I daydream about doing this when I retire or as a stealth-type RV for vacations when kids are older, etc. Love my life now, and nice to still have things to look forward to. I have watched many tiny house-camper videos, and always thought that step vans seemed the best size/space/cost trade-off.
Best van mod channel
It is so nice to see an RV without the damn vinyl swirls all over the exterior. I think your choice of the Ford V10 motor is the best choice. Can't wait to see your finished motorhome. Good luck on your project.
Working inside the step vans at FedEx ground makes me wanna do this myself
Wow beautiful can’t wait to see you work on your home, love it Congratulations 🍾
SO informative! I hadn't thought about the commercial registration! TY!
7:36 I love the tunes you got going! And I have the same locker (that I rescued from a dumpster)!
Awesome new ride !! Can't wait to see the progress of this van build !! Good luck Justin.....
I know it's going to be beautiful when you finish but sure do miss that purple (Favorite color). Can't wait to see what surprises you have for us. TC 🌷
Awesome baby, can't wait to see what you do with it.
I think you have found THE built out step van, excited about what you will be doing . Thanks for sharing.
Thats an amazing find, i usually never find the auto that i want and if i do its 3 states away. You made out like a bandit considering the work that was already done, enjoyed the vid would like to see the completed project. Thx for sharing.
In the new era of the New World Order....Puuuurrfect!!! Love the overkill battery storage and solar set up!!!
Looking forward to the build as always. You might want to consider a diesel heater which will provide you that great dry heat. Sláinte
The Ford v10 in the work van at my job has like 245,000+ miles and actually gets good gas mileage. It seems pretty reliable. Nice rig
Perfect choice for a conversion vehicle, very smart
Seems like an ideal vehicle for home conversion - space and security
Nice van jc cant wait to see what your going to do with it 🚐🚐🚐🚐
Looks awesome. I'm excited to see what you do with it. Keep up the good work!
I love it! I would have to have air conditioning living in the south USA because of humidity!
It's going to be fun to see your decorating. Looking forward to it!
I have to say this guy did a wonderful job at making this extremely livible already had heat bathroom & Wow all that solor talk about luck finding this truck.
Put a top carrier over your van that gives the top of your van some shade and mount the solar panels on the. top carrier, cutting heat build up from sun.
Can’t wait to see your vision take shape. Congrats!
Inside ladder is genius
I love them but I would need the longest one they put out!
I really like this Justin 😀👍
Justin congratulations on your find /buy
I like the excitement in you voice looking forward to your creative work and vision
I already know it’s going to be awesome .
J, looking forward to your next video - step vans vs cube vans.
So excited for this build! Curious if you had to show pics of the appliances and plumbing to register it as a MH?
I like the new step van too btw, lots more room to move and walk inside, and you can modify it anyway you like good idea!
I don't think you could ask for a better head start on a step van. Cool van, man
Love the choice of power tools.
Woo so cool can’t wait to see the built out
Nice rig with lots of potential. I will be following your build for sure. You can tour the lower 48 in that machine in comfort.
The Skoolies seem to camp together as well.
Home sweet home! I still miss Dora, your Explorer. Thought that was your coolest RV.
Really? I don't think that was any match for my last van at all.
I love the "Canadian content" when you turned the ignition and the radio came on. Yup, Stepvans are a thing, a good thing.
That looks sick
Way cool! Can't wait to see all the mods, especially the hatch going up. Cheers!
Wow I'm blown away how simplistic The dash & cab are! I was expecting to see a big old obnoxious stick shift and more components. The setup is pretty much the same as my simple to 02 Ford van. Exact same steering wheel and easy peasy automatic shift just turn the key and you're instantly on your nest next adventure. I to drove a diesel for a while with my old job loud stinky and you had to warm it up for a while hated that and also freaking out and get all pissed off driving around on empty trying to find a diesel gas place.+ out of all the vehicles I've owned and I'm 50 now Ford was the easiest to find parts for in the least to break down. Looking forward to the build videos Justin. KORITFW✌
Step vans are the exact same stripped chassis from Ford/GM used for Class A motorhomes, they pretty much all include the standard van dash and shifter as any other van.
I haven't watched for quite a while. This looks interesting.,Good for you and best of luck with the step van. Canadian westcoaster.
Looking forward to the finished product.
totally custom. the step van is like new. clean machine and loads of solar power for your entertainment system, water heater , fridge and hot plate.
Nice, enjoy your new home and many more wonderful adventures, be safe traveling,love ya
Foldable Mesh cover for the window.. With velcro on the sides...good for those hot nights air ventilation n bug resistant.
Yes. Doing the re-title is a very good thing for saving money. My yearly registration dropped 75% and my insurance dropped 50%. but most tolls and bridge crossings are prices set on axle/wheel count. With 6 wheels i get dinged sometimes. like going to NYC in a regular passenger car is about 1/5th the price as for me. Also Wow that's some batteries!. good luck building the stuff you want to add
Wow never heard of axle charges, we certainly don't have that here. Private vehicles and commercial vehicles have their own toll rates, axles are irrelevant. Also, the BC Government recently removed all bridge tolls.
Hey bud, had I known about this sort of lifestyle before moving abroad and starting a family, I would totally do what you're doing with different van setups. It's fairly cheap and profitable if you want to turnover or just do simple van/rv life. good job on the new rig.
😍😍😍👌👌👌👍👍👍👏👏👏
Congrats, very cool. Sorry you lost your wood stove, but at least your heating is covered. Good luck.
What a score on this van. Cheers Man!!!
Way to go Justin that’s beautiful.
Congrats. I hope you wrap the van soon because I can just imagine some kids tagging your white van eventually. Rarely see a white panel work van in the city.
You have the old fashioned parking meters in Vancouver? Pretty much everywhere in Perth, you can park a bus and pay the one rate. Also every garage here has diesel. Just unfortunate we have very few step vans. Nice rig though.
Nice Step Van
Wow, wish I could afford the same. Very very nice Purchase! Definitely gonna follow your progress. Keep on Rockin! 😆👋
Nice Justin
Gonna be fun to watch another build
Awesome set up cant wait to see what you do
