I am SO envious of your rig and lifestyle . I'm just getting started in it. A little of a late bloomer, but I found a couple econolines that will need all the needy stuff I need. Lol Just turned 68, but pretty healthy and I was a millwright, so I can fix about anything that might pop up. Also, the tunes you had playing really set the mood! I wish you guys all the luck and happiness in your endeavors. Peace
I’m glad you enjoyed it and left a comment too. My wife actually did 95% of the living area build out and 95% of the electrical and plumbing installation with my help as needed. We’ve had a ton of fun with the van. It’s taken us to some really nice places. Good luck with your van build.
hello warm greetings from Pontassieve province of Florence Italy I am the esteemed owner of a 4x4 off-road vehicle Suzuki Jimmy 4x4 with a 1.3 LT petrol m13a engine, all original from 2001, all original that I usually use on rural and forest tracks and with the right mud tyres it goes well and for me the Suzuki Jimmy 4x4 even if it is completely original I see that it is in its natural habitat in tackling rural farm tracks and forest roads that are used by logging companies for the transport of timber with forestry trucks!
@@wewtravel3434 thanks for the info. Was looking into the 20" top, I'm 6' tall. Was trying to keep the profile down. But the 24" looks great on your rig.
UJoint Offroad did the 4x4 conversion and we finished it out inside ourselves. It's got 400 watts of solar, 400 AH Lithium batteries, 20 gallons fresh water, 2.5 Gal hot water, microwave, coffee pot, induction cook plate, ARB fridge, full size bed above the bike storage area. Seats swivel around, we added a DC to DC charger off the alternator and have a Honda 2000 generator on board if needed. We've had a ton of fun in it : )
In an emergency, climb to the top of the highest sand dune and you can get a very weak signal. Also anywhere along PINS there will be someone come along within a couple of hours, most of the time less. People will stop and help!
Great to hear from you, yes we crossed the Canadian Border on May 15th and are currently in the northern top part of the Gaspe Peninsula in Quebec. I hope you guys are doing ok and had a safe trip back to San Antonio in your Motorhome? You should go to our channel, I've posted a few newer videos after the Padre Island one.
Sorry for the late reply, just now saw the comment. Yes, we crossed over into Canada May 15th and toured all around, Quebec, Ontario, New Brunswick and have spent the last 6 weeks in Nova Scotia. We’re actually taking the van to Newfoundland for 3 weeks tomorrow morning.
@@Reeses0810 pretty simple call, I wanted to do some birding at Mustang Island State Park and I wanted to avoid the traffic and congestion in Corpus Christi.
This is van life, bro! hell yea!

How tall is the top extension for headroom? Looking to build a van like this, can you stand up inside? Van looks sweet! Nice ride 😊
Hello, It's a 24" Fiberine brand Top. I'm 6'2" and can stand up in it. Anything else just holler, be glad to help : )

Really great looking rig! What camper conversion builder is that?

@@wewtravel3434 Nice !
The beach looks so isolated and peaceful. Hope you have cellphone service, in case you get stuck in the sand. 😅
No cell service there but we do have Starlink that we can make a phone call using it. That's our plan wherever we go : )

Why the ferry you can drive there.

@@wewtravel3434 makes sense
I'm 2 minutes in and I left because of the awful background music!!!
No back music please! Sooo annoying.
