VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
"We wanted something that most RV's couldn't go" For those looking to get out there and stay out there, there's nothing better than an off grid overland vehicle. Over the last 4 years, more and more people are buying decommissioned military vehicles and turning them into tiny houses. Before I purchased a bus, I was actually looking at one of these. At that time, you could find a base model, without the slide outs and a box, for $3-$4k on government auction sites. However, just like school busses now, the price has shot up as these become a more popular option. This build has a ton of clever design hacks, probably one of the best I have ever seen.

Military vehicles are becoming ready candidates to convert into tiny houses, is this something you are considering?
Well, yeah, now.
@@ne1up Especially after this election. The new administration is going to put it's boot down hard on the necks of the American people. Dark days ahead. :/
A chris........ maybe start including the insurance cost and lingo when considering public service or commercial vehicles so people are not stuck with something they can't insure......... just a thought....✌🇺🇸
I wasn't but I am now.
Oh heck yeah! I love everything about this! But....I would have to win the lottery first. This had to cost a few cents to build out, but so worth it if you have the resources.
Next up on Tiny Home Tours, couple converts a M1 Abrams tank to luxury tiny home.
Able to keep pesky lookie-lous away.
😂🤣😂
Lmao 🤣 in my country it would be pushcart or wheelbarrow 😂😂
Well, if you're going to live in a modern tank. The M1 Abrams definitely has one of the roomier interiors.
Sooo.... The drivers seat would be the bedroom and the loaders area would be the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Unless you want to count the top of the tank as its own area?
As a Army retiree I must say it look totally different from what it looked like when I used to work them back in the day. I love everything they've done with this vehicle especially the added windows shower and elevated bed. I need something liked this. The industrialminimalist look is for me.
What did you do in these trucks, thanks for your service!
service to tehe Zi os@@theoracle6881
The dude is inteligent, humble and cool at the same time!
And the lady goes with him perfectly. 😊
Hey you got likes a year ago
Dude is a straight up G for doing the whole interview with a lip full of dip
IMO that's the coolest truck conversion I've seen.
Agreed
Agree. Coolest conversion of any vehicle I’ve ever seen.
10x14. That's a studio apartment. On wheels.
Agreed. The spaciousness is a winning feature. However, I'm sure it gets old paying for gas to go 5-8 miles per gallon. Alas it is a comfort vs practically sum, and we all have our unique sweet spots.
@@OrthodoxAtheist Yup. It's probably best to view a vehicle such as this as a stationary vehicle that can move around every once in a while.
If we can ever get back on the abundant, safe, carbon-free nuclear power mated with the new catalytic production of carbon-based fuel made from CO2 in the atmosphere, we are home free, and mpg won't be that big of a deal.
They did a great job converting this into a tiny house.
Okay this is what we will need in the Zombie apocalypse......love it!!!
In that event, gas for the vehicle will be a problem. They'd need to be able to produce alternative fuel and have it run on it. That's probably not practical. So basically this would allow you to get a certain distance for as long as you have gas, after that you're pretty much stationary. Gas has a shelf life. Perhaps solar could help it run for short distances?
@@theuglykwan
True. But ive heard engines run on more than gas. Ive heard of people using old grease. Not sure i would try that lol. Or steam. I have no clue about engines but there was steam engines I guess they ran on coal ? Anyway ... something to check into
Either way its still Doomsday vehicle
@@skywatcher4602 Yeah they'd definitely need to alter it to be able to run on something else they'd have after society collapses. Some alternatives would require a community to produce. Stuff like biogas is possible.
@@theuglykwan
Yeah.... thats an idea. 😊
They have biodiesel.
I'm telling you the huge sink is so worth it. I live in my RV and I don't regret it at all.
We had one of these in Iraq at the beginning of the war. It was messed up. We gutted it and put beds in and fixed everything and it was a mobile home for my squad kept us out of the elements. It was nice. This build you have is immaculate design and build.
Not 12. He had a man's vision of freedom. 👍
I work at Costco and I recognized that work bench right off BECAUSE I have wanted to build a,kitchen around that cabinet since we first started selling those over 10 years ago. The wood top is solid oak butcher block and of a very high quality.
I plan on a 30-ft Yurt with that piece separating the kitchen from living space.
NICE CHOICE!
I hope you share your yurt build with the world! 👍 These videos are so much fun
I finally saw a yurt, so cool and rather large inside.
I wanted metal Lowe dupped me ended up with shop partical board with vinyl covering which is coming off. Sad to say Sanders is not as good as it use to be still had good customer service though and replaced parts no question asked. Yes my kitchen industrial look good buy on the cabinetry buy one pantry shop grade get one upper cabnet free. So it was a quick kitchen fix for a husband who howled at the time that he wasn't into finish carpentry and he was a truck driver so cabnet building is time consuming this also was a weekend do so it worked for us. I will eventually pull off the vinyl covering and paint after a long honey do list left to me to complete now on my own:-(
Zack's such a chill guy. Didn't even complain much about his stuff getting stolen.
Damn when you opened that back door I wasn’t expecting it to look so good holy shit. Looks so modern. Beautiful
This is seriously my favorite conversion of all time
🙏 🙏 🙏
American: Welcome to our tiny home
Brit: Holy crap their living room is bigger than my studio flat
You don't have to fill your studio with $400 of petrol every time you wake up.
*laughs in new york accent*
@@photopicker In Canada you would...also Germany and other places that use oil heaters...
True dat! LOL - We call it smiles to the gallon. But, then again, how many MPG do most houses get?
Lmao
Not gonna lie, This is my Dream Home! Awesome build!
Thanks! Btw: for sale???
I’ve watched hundreds of RV & tiny home videos and this is my favorite build.
Those pharmaceutical lab white lights kill the mood
He’s super humble about it but that guy is wicked smart. That looks so complicated it makes my head hurt and he figured it out in a year. She seems genuinely appreciative of him too. Definitely jealous lol
Glad you noticed! Zack is a genius, I mean wicked smart, and I (Krystal) like to brag about his work every chance I get. Thanks for watching, cheers to you!
Wow did they read my mind? This truck looks like it is the vehicle in my dreams
This is the most mental conversion I've seen so far - its actually cool how extravagant it is.
The kitchen and shower are great. Very clever and equipped with sous vide!
What a great idea.
Thank you for inviting us into your home.
I think you did a great job making this exactly what you want.
That truck was well worth the price. You can take it anywhere and its spacious and bulletproof!
This is one of the very best tiny house on wheels projects I’ e seen! It doesn’t feel closed in or cramped at all! Such a lucky find! Brilliant!
out of this world. zack must feel like christmas every day. gets to play with his machine any time.
The rig looks huge inside! Nicely done.
the best interior design of any overlander i've seen
Cooler than those multi million dollar RVs!
@@warpnin3 yeah like the ones with room only to walk back and forth because they go so overboard with closet space ..this one is open
I remember when the LMTV's and MTV's were first delivered to my unit (1998 I think) and they were so much easier to drive than the Deuces and 5-tons we were replacing. Cool conversion, I dig it!
The air brakes will shake everyone up a bit if you're not used to it 😉
They've came up with genius solutions. I love the tool box kitchen cabinet.
Probably my favorite van / truck conversion I’ve seen on here. Congrats on everything this thing is great!
What a guy .what's he into? I would never have thought of a tilting bed. HES SPECIAL.TALENT.
Thanks. He is brilliant!!! His formal training as a plastics engineer doesn't hurt either. Cheers!
I've spent many years in the maritime industry I would call it "cargo ship chique"! Love it!
Practical and sanity approach for living on the road!😎
I have watched many videos of truck/van conversions. And I must say, that this is by far, the best yet. Maybe it's because I too love industrial.
🙏 🙏 🙏
Pressed 👍🏻 when reading the video title
Hands down my favorite build I've seen on RUclips. These two really thought outside of the box when it came to designing this.
👊 Thank you!
Outside of the box 🥁
Guys, HERE is The Savior
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
Bantha is a beauty. With such loving parents
Thank you for inviting us into your home.
I think you did a great job making this exactly what you want. And your wife is very very nice... Bravo...
Thank you! Appreciate it.
Ok, I'm officially impressed.
I've been drooling over these trucks for years. This is the first time I've seen one with the shelter on back, definitely the first time I've seen someone take one this far. AWESOME!
Now thats rv life not to be embarrassed about
I'm very disappointed that we didn't get to see clothing storage, refrigerator or the cab.
Thank you for this feedback. We will post a video soon showing all our storage details. 🍻
Thank you! Exactly what I was thinking and going to say.
Hi! We finally posted a video showing the fridge.
ruclips.net/video/mLeiEeH5Mwc/видео.html
Thanks for asking, appreciate it. Cheers to you!
Noo. Last time, someone stole his clothes, so if they tell us where the wardrobe is, they'll have to kill us all 😁
True we sure didn't!
That workbench converted into a kitchen countertop/range/drawers is so genius!!!!! *THIS* is what is meant by *Tiny Home* / *Conversion Van* living (as opposed to the quack who merely lives out of a Jeep and calls that a “camper van” conversion…
You guys did an amazing job! This is so awesome! I’m 38 y.o and I’ve always wanted to have a SHTF castle on wheels. This is a tank with luxury apt inside! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! 👊
This is the perfect combination, looks rough and capable in the outside, but look amazing and I would say modern and luxurious in the inside.....
🙏 Thank you!
It's industrial looking, sure. BUT it just goes to show that anyone can do this... You don't gotta be an interior designer or an ex RV designer to do this stuff... It gives us common folk hope lol. The industrial look definitely grew on me within the length of the video.
Ok, this is the BEST unconventional home I've seen!
Thank you! 🙏
This is probably my favorite tiny house I've seen so far.
Thank you! 🍻
Yeah, it is very cool and well done.
NAILED IT !
Bullet proof
Go anywhere
Spacious
Easy to use AND repair
Adaptable
ALL purpose
The best I've seen
Thanks for sharing your inspiration
I’m 12 too soon to retire and I think you’ve built one of the coolest go anywhere trucks I’ve ever seen. I even got my wife to appreciate this rig. No small feat. God Bless and enjoy. Amazing guys 👍🏼
Military meets Star Wars. I absolutely love. Your M1087 brings back a bunch of memories. Fantastic work y'all have done to this.
"have to use very teeny tiny space" has a giant open area you could breakdance in.
This is absolutely the best I've ever seen I don't know why but it looks like A real home With lots of space
Thank you!
This is the coolest build out I've seen in a long time! Really like the truck..........
This is the 1st one I’ve seen that I could live in.
"This is very simple", gotta be the understatement of the year.
I'm sure its also really discreet.
That little silver box in the British Army was called a BV(boiling vessel).Warrior IFV’s use them.1st class morale booster when Baltic cold.👍
It seems like you have so much space. I love your military vehicle and how you designed it! Congratulations, it’s a win!
Thank you! We do enjoy all the open space. 🍻
The emotion of the husband is......contagious? 🤔
😄 It wasn't a high energy day for him. Thanks for watching.
Seriously cool. I don’t think downsizing your wardrobe is trivial at all. It’s probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done when it comes to tiny living. I’m with you about relying on solar for electricity and cooking with induction. We have a propane stove in our trailer (which is 2 years old) and it’s nothing but a pain. We don’t even use it. I love the few little plants you have. They just seemed to add that little touch of home. Oh my gosh that view of the Grand Canyon was stunning. I bet sunrises and sunsets are amazing! I regret not being able to find something and building our own but neither of us is good at DIY (nor do I care to). Many happy travels!
Much nicer than the ones I used to work on. The design fits very well. Love it. With proper maintenance these things last for years!
I used to work out of a couple of these at Fort Huachuca and cranking these things out was always a pain in the butt.
This is awesome! I was a truck mechanic for 12yrs and that is an amazing build!! I've only seen these as field offices!
I love the little peep window on the side door. I could see myself messing with friends and barring them entry to my speak easy hahah
Hahah, yes! What is the code word?
That space looks more clinical than industrial.
Nobody will ever try to break into this beast seeing it’s military exterior
Ummm...like they literally say in the video that the got all their stuff stolen at a music festival 🙄
@@Oceansta They said the Jeep got broken into, not the military truck.
As a patriot it's fine to see Austrian development all over the world!!!
Beautiful beautiful beautiful what a wonderful home on wheels you have. It must have took an immense amount of work and thought. Much respect good job. 🚚
Best use of a retired military rv I’ve seen yet. I’m inspired. Great job guys. I love it ❤
Thank you, appreciate the comment and support!
WOW!!! What an exciting build. You guys knocked it out of the park, it looks like a NY Apt. Great job and happy trails…
I like your innovativeness. I desire that one day I will also manage to acquire such a vehicle and use it to go around rural areas of Zambia spreading the gospel.
Excellent to see more of Bantha, Crystal, and Zack!
Loved everything about this rig and the couple (and tiny living for that matter) so many things are so satisfying about living in a smaller space, yet have that sense of something close to freedom!! if you really want it and can, do your best to do it because life's just way too short and the older you get, the shorter it drips through your hands! couldn't stop applauding!!!
Hat tip to ya! Thank you.
Good ole expando van. We still use these and they're great. One suggestion would be to have some lifting support when bringing the sides in, which will be less stressful on the expansion gears, especially since they're usually plastic. I love it though and glad to see people making use of all that room.
Best “tiny home” I’ve seen. Very Impressive!
Thanks so much!
I've seen them on another tiny house channel before. Glad to see they are still enjoying the lifestyle.
Who don't love industrial that home look like they took a lot of time to make it a sweet home 🔥🔥🔥
By the way my husband and I Love your Military Tiny home!
Thank you! 🙏
Very Cool,
I want to do something similar -
It will most likely not be a military vehicle, but a 4x4 flat bed tow truck.
The home will be a large metal box that attaches or detaches from it, so that if the vehicle goes in for repairs…. the house is still available….. or so the house can be stationary for awhile separate from vehicle.
I love seeing all these different builds for ideas.
Thanks for Sharing 😃👍
love that its named after the creature from Tatooine
Not to bad folks. Good job. I wish my wife would enjoy such a vision. God bless.
Thank you!
How amazing u2 are! I've never seen anything so planned out. I just can't get over how livable it is. Job well done to say the least. Happy travels my friend!
Yes folks it won't be long we will all wished we had one :-)
They’re going to have some amazing life experiences with this.
that is for sure
A custom built tiny home with off-road capability, a 3-D printer, and a sous-vide. God Bless America 🇺🇸
This, by far, is the best conversion chassis and conversion job that I have ever laid eyes on!
Great job guys!
Yes, first real industrial looking rig. I LOVE IT. GREAT JOB!
Overlanding Off-Grid Beast!
Were you a truck driver in the military? so you got your ideas there as well as out of the service? that is what I call thinking for your own selves and how to insure your freedoms stay safe and enjoy your lives together, well done...
Everyone in the military could drive these. This is just a regular five ton truck . I was in the Army when these came into service, I think around 1999 or 2000. 88 Mikes drove bigger vehicles than these . Truck drivers transported tanks or other heavy vehicles. You wouldnt haul a tank with this vehicle.
@@lilcourtny08 you need to get certified to drive vics now, Everything over a duty van.
This has to be one of the best top 5 vehicle conversions I have seen on RUclips. I have watched quite a few and I must admit that most of the conversions I have seen, have things in them that I wouldn't have or too many things to change that would satisfy me if I was to live in a camper type vehicle,,, BUT,,, I absolutely love what you've done with this vehicle !!! I wouldn't have to think twice about living in your vehicle : ) ...
Thanks so much! She is for sale..... 👊 🍻
@@BANTHA-M1087FMTV I would love to be able to buy her from you but that's only a dream. Good luck selling her, you shouldn't have a problem finding a buyer!!
@@NothingReallyMatters67 Thank you!
I am glad that the two of you thought outside the box and got the kitchen 'work bench'. The drawers are perfect for the kitchen area. You are truly ready for the zombie apocalypse. How would anything that big really get stuck in the snow? Is it all wheel drive? Love the great thought you have put into your bunker..Happy New Year!! You never showed where all your clothing goes.
Thanks! We'll make a video to show clothing storage. (soon)
That work bench conversion was amazing.
Brilliant interior design. 10/10
I keep pushing retirement in a van on my husband, he nudges me when we see a big military vehicle like Bantha here, so I'll have to save & share this with him later. This is awesome!!
Love the industrial design, nice and simple. Love the plants inside. I think there should be few more plants and some picture. And dark titanium grey colour for the exterior mmmm, sweet.
Happy this came to my recommended, it’s beautiful and I’m proud of you both, love the teamwork and mutual essence you both brought forth in showing us this build‼️ Awesome 👏
Hey there, thanks so much!!
Love !! This build. The only thing missing are gun ports. 👍🏻🇺🇸🙏🏽🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
That is a very nice set up. You guys did a outstanding job. Looks great!!!!!
Bantha is a really amazing home on wheels.
