- It is great to have George Mauro from Humble Road back on the channel. In this video he provides a complete walk through tour of his very first build. This 2017 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 170" Extended high top is an exceptional chassis for making an building custom camper vans for enjoying the Van Life. This van has a front futon bed, center refrigerator & wardrobe and a rear long corner kitchen with full shower and toilet on the other side.

Excellent job on this video, Patrick! Thank you for the opportunity to showcase my first van effort. If your viewers would like to see more van build innovation, I do a weekly episode at 8:30 AM most Sunday mornings on my channel; Humble Road.
George, it is always great to have you on the channel. I cannot wait to feature your next builds.
I just love this build!!!, I would love to be able to afford you...but I’m sure I can not! But I will watch you channel! Perhaps if I every get back to USA to live and retire...I’ll have to look you up!
George- you are a F'ing GENIUS. I greatly admire your MASTER craftsmanship and thoughtful design ideas.
Humble Road, THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for mentioning you build with cardboard first!!!! That is such an amazing idea! I am preparing to build my own home on wheels and was worried about doing it and not being comfortable after it's done, then having to redo it. This just saved me so much worry. Amazing van, I plan on stealing some of your ideas, but I will give credit where it's due :) I like the aluminum better than wood also, seems like it would be stronger and lighter.
Dude, you're amazing. Total genius ideas. Maybe one day we can afford to become a part of the humble road family.
This builder put a lot of thought in his build. As he walks you through you can feel his pride and love for his product. he is not just a builder, he is an artist.
I couldn't disagree more with you. This is the most impractical van of that size I have ever seen.
Erwin is right 💯...George is an artist for sure...and his son Alex is also on another level with his woodwork. 👏👏
A year and a half to produce that cluttered mess of disjointed ideas, the poor lady. The materials and components would of cost her a pretty penny. That old guy calls himself an artist, hes a con-artist.
Yes I totally agree with you!! I've watched his RUclips channel for years now, he does *very impressive and beautiful* work!! The additions he made to his personal Pleasure Way van made it so stunning! I loved the screen door and wood work he did on the side, just gorgeous!
Mans literally said “Idon’t sleep anymore because I’m thinking of builds”
OMG, this man is a master builder, and his detail is superior. Patrick, I always enjoy your video's.
Glad you like them!
I agree, I saw almost all his radios. He did great work. Love so much
His attention to detail is unmatched.. he’s definitely found a good outlet for his OCD
I really appreciate his passion.
Unmatched? Windows are a shortcut.... Oh yeah they are on warranty.
@@newtablet7779 what’s bad about that? That’s reassuring to me!
The four drain panels in the shower pan, brilliant.
This man is a genius. I'm not even remotely anywhere near making a decision to build a van but I watch his channel with great interest as it is refreshing that he so generously share tips on what and why he is doing whatever it is and his passion is infectious. If I ever want a van built, I would want him to do it but reality is I may never be able to afford him!
Humble Road builder obviously cares about the quality of his work. His attention to detail and innovation is great. Love his concern for the needs of the client. Really impressed with his work ethic.
George is THE MAN! The greatest van builder, bar none! He’s the Einstein of van builds🙌🏽🙌🏽 He should rename his channel “Humble Road On 80/20.”👌🏽 The work done by him and Alex truly are works of art. It would be a dream to have them design my van, when I get it😊
Thank you very much.
His layout makes this van look huge!
It really does.
He’s just an incredible conversion van builder!!!! Every thing is so well thought out.... WOW!!!! Love how open it looks.... wonder if the bed could be a queen!????
He could teach the van ‘manufacturers’ a thing or two, or three, or four! Wow!!!!
Love Humble Road and all they do! Definitely a unique and thoughtful mind at work!
Couldn't agree more!
I like George, he pay’s attention to every detail of the van build.
Thank you very much
no wonder I did not get my Saturday morning humble road fix, George is busy in your channel!
Yes, George took some time this week with me. His show is every Sunday morning.
Wow, he thinks and rethinks his designs and he's willing to update his builds. He pays attention to usage, storage and the buyers needs. I know that people don't like waiting 1 1/2 years for your build but I am sure it is pure quality.
Love this build, the workmanship, the thought process and the passion which goes into the final product. I'm presently living in Trinidad having the sole responsibilty of caring for my parents my dad died exactly 3 yrs ago at 89 and my moms still here with me. My escape has been watching these van builds all hours of the day and night. I dream about the day I'm able to breathe again and travel around this way, its been 12 long challenging yrs and while i would do this all again I am tired need a nice break. Would love for you to do my build in the future!
Everyone wanting a van should watch this first. The attention to detail is awesome!
Thank you very much.
For a moment I forgot I was watching a van build. Amazing layout. The over hanging cabinets and offset corners really give a perception of more space like he had mentioned.
Had she said whether the sliders rattle or not? Great video. Can’t believe this is his first van effort. Masterful. The thought behind even the curtains and ventilation outstanding.
No mentioning if the sliders rattle. If they were an annoyance, George would have corrected them.
I've been following George's channel for a couple years. I love his meticulousness.
I would love a fan like this here in Europe. This van is perfect.
What a beautiful piece of art on wheels!!!!!!!! I want one!!!
This master innovator is truly exciting, I loved the fact function and form are fused with gorgeous atheistic . This gentleman is a architect , an artist , mechanic and so much more.
The quality of this excellent, very well done .
BEST van set-up I have ever seen. Brilliant.
Thank you woody
George is an artist.
Yes 🙌🏼
I love this guy! He thinks of EVERYTHING! Amazing!!
As someone who's watched thousands of hours of van builds, I am extremely impressed with his ideas and work - especially for a one man operation. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you very much for checking in
I agree 100%!! This man LOVES what he is doing and it shows in his work
Likewise. He’s the best of the best.
Quality workmanship and a proud father.
Amazing.
Incredible build and such passion. Love everything about this.
❤❤❤... awesome! Thank you, Patrick, for introducing us to Humble Road. George, the quality of your craftmanship and thought process you have behind each nook and cranny is fantastic. How long is your wait list for a new build?
Wow, thank you! I believe 12-16 months.
Let me refrase it this is AMAZING build ever!!!! I want that !!!!
George is fantastic. His channel HumbleRoad is great too.
Got to say I've been a Murphy and Happi Jac fan for a while, but I love that Futon design is so much simpler than those bed systems also seemed much faster than the Happi Jac and has less bed making than the Murphy's.
Absolutely perfect! Truly a Masterpiece!!
Excellent build. I like how he kept the floor open as much as possible. Great video
Yes, me too
What a superb craftsman! Absolutely loved this van
The best fridge ever!❤️
OMG!! George / Humble Road - YOU are KILLING It! Incredible design work and build excellence. Your work, and your son's woodwork are OUTSTANDING!!! I want to clone you guys and make an Albuquerque version of Humble Road 😉😁
I love the openness of the living room and the swing-out table with the passenger front chair swiveled to the back. It looks very good for working and relaxing! Great job!
Thanks so much!
Super build...i bet he was in the Navy...because he took extra care in the build and to repair if needed.. just super great build...🍷🍷🍷
Right on
Very nice setup where the shower is. I have some comment about the fresh water filler hose, I think you need to put a lid cover so that the dust it doesn’t go into the hose. Also the removable door step, I think it’s better to put locking mechanism instead of rubber to hold in place just in case you step on the outer edge and it comes off.
One of the best builds I’ve seen
Thanks Honey
Wow!!!
Great vid! This guy is sharp! I love it!
Fantastic camper van made with passion! Well done!!
Thank you! 👍
Super designer !!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much Van
Fantastic van build !!👏
I LOVE IT George!!! Every detail is amazing, practical, thoughtful. I want it! How much would this cost? So I can start saving for it. 😃
I would like to know as well!!
i like a lot of his ideas that he put into this van
Brilliant build
Thank you 😊
This man is genies
I like this guy he reminds me of myself
Sweet
Wow! Superb.
Yes 🙌🏼
Honestly, if he started a membership for diyers and companies who do builds where he does walkthrough videos as he works w/any updates, q&as with people he connects with during the build etc, everyone who wants to hire him but cant afford him can jave access to the how tos & why and why nots, your expertise is ah-mazing! This can be very profitable as a more passive revenue stream
Brilliant!!
Thank you 🙏🏼
I love the bathroom!!!
He's a Genius
he's a genius.
He is a awesome builder. I'd like to see how he'd build a bus
Yes, me too
Wow! The OCD runs strong in this one.
Very beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Super
Thank you 🙏🏼
This is the Crim Dela creme of vans!!
You are have a great talent for detail. Beautiful. I m hoping that you contact info is listed
Check description
Make a duster for module top!
Interesting.
Reading about GaN batteries.
Is an evolution in batteries immanent ?
To too familiar with them
😊
So if i wanted a gaming van, would he be able to build it?
Sure
I wonder myself how much can cost a van like this ?
I wounder how much one of his builds cost.
I want a van
Do it.
You weren’t kidding - extraordinary indeed. Brilliant use of space.
Thank you so much.
Watching George build these vans over the past nearly two years leads me to believe he is the "Frank Lloyd Wright" of custom homes on wheels.
Funny you mentioned that. I have the exact same thought.
Exactly what I was going to say! Yes!
Superb! I love the layout. So well thought out. The insert at the door is a fantastic idea. His workmanship, and that of his son, is wonderful. I bet his customer was really pleased with the van!
Thanks so much!
He is amazing!! He’s a genius!! What an artist!
Agreed.
George is a genius that's all there is to it
Agreed.
Built by humble road, pretty luxurious. He took his time to explain every bits and pieces of the build
He does a great job
You get a sense of his passion and how that translates into the quality of his work. Excellent van. Great vid.
Couldn't agree more!
He is the 'Frank Lloyd Wright' of van builds! 😊
Nice interpretation.
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures TY 👍
George's innovation in building vans is becoming legendary
Yes. True
One question for you if you think this is legandary - where is the storage space in this huge van? And where is the insulation? You can see the bare doors.
@@milcotto4153 I'd venture to say Annie you couldn't be a pimple on his ass. People who live in glass houses should use spell check.
George is a master designer. He is an expert problem solver. I love that his builds keep evolving after the initial completion.
Finally i saw my dream layout kitchen in the back bed at front (properly made a murphybed) in the same spot and the shower in the back curtain with a hidden drawer toitlet thing awesome!!!!
Thanks for having him on your channel. I enjoy watching his vids for planning my own build.
Thanks for watching!
Two of my favorite people in the SAME video!?! 😳🙌❤️🥳. I’ve learned so much from you both, and you’re instrumental in helping us freedom loving future van-lifers take flight! Thank you!
Yay! Thank you for the support.
Wonderful open feeling throughout, a very smart floor plan. I have to admit, I am not a fan of the bathroom at the end, but in this built it worked great because it did not block the view. And the placement of the toilet: Genius! Loved everything about this one Patrick. Thank you for bringing it to us.
Thanks so much!
I think that type of bed might fit at the back on a lifted floor to allow a bigger garage. I like the bathroom in the front of the van
George, please give us a few recordings of what you sound like when you shrink yourself down into the microwave cabinet... i.e. Charlie & the Chocolate Factory! 😁 🏭
This van built is such a beaut and remains my george fav. Focus on details, practicality, functionality and comfort under his creativity and care make his vans mobile art. Glad to hear he is adding more muscle to his flock!
Well said!
The amount of research George has to do to reach this level is is incredible and beyond anything I have ever seen.
Has to be the best van build I have watched and I’ve watched hundreds well done from Ireland 🇮🇪
My favorite Humble Road build to date, George is a genius when it comes to van-builds. Thanks Patrick.
Patrick, this man is AMAZING. OMG!!! 😯 The level of detail and innovation is unprecedented.
I love it. His attention to detail is second to none. My only question: does the owner not use a stove top? Was it tucked away in the appliance garage? George and his son are masters of their crafts.
😎✌️🤙🤘😎
Owner uses an induction cook top.
Sooo what I got from watching this is... if I can’t afford to have this man build and design my van... I shouldn’t have it. His passion would sell me. Details are important to him and I think that’s important for a small living space where everything needs it’s place. Dope van.
WoW!!! If I could afford a builder...it would b you!! Fantastic build...brilliant mind!!
You and me both!
I’ve been watching George for a long time. I love his innovative ideas. Constantly updating innovating and changing for new products and things to make van lifers more comfortable and more enjoyable. Thank you Patrick for going over this with George. It was a joy 🚐💨
Great to hear!
Humble Road ! This guy is totally AMAZING!!! Brilliant creator. The woodworks are excellent! I am in Montclair, NJ . I'll have to look you up!
Thank you very much.
Can you give the name of the mattress store?
I like the futon. Could the futon bed go the other way,across in a Promaster? I know the Sprinter is only 70" across.
I’ve been watching George for a couple years; a rare combination of artistic and engineering genius. Patrick, thanks for taking the time on your channel to showcase his amazing build!
Very welcome
Yowser, the ultimate in detailed design and innovation...LOVE it and definitely want one! Appreciate the artistry. The yearly upgrades and tightening are a wonderful feature for this master build. Thanks to the both of you!
Couldn't agree more!
He's very thorough 😴
Yes, he is.
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures It shows in his build quality. 😉👍
George, I have been watching van built videos for more than nine months and I know you are the one to create my possibilties! Please take care of yourself and hire help so you are available when I am ready! I would be proud to live in a home built by you! Thank you for creating this video.
George's wife: Hey honey, build me a van. Flip the living space. George: You got it.
My wife: Hey honey, can you build me a planter box? Me: You got it; I'm going to Depot.
