I have a 1994 Ford E150 van converted, and I feel the same way (perhaps having learned to drive in the old days of 2WRD, no ABS & manual shifting). It will go anywhere that matters.
@@NateMurphy I do have a problem I emailed you about, Nate, without a reply yet. I bought the 10th edition but can't seem to update to any since. What should I do?
Just a chuckle. My family ran fly in camps in northern Quebec. We hauled supplies in by snowmobile and 4x4 when and where possible. We knew to get good and stuck you need 4x4. I would agree that 95% of the time an 2wheel drive with some ground clearance and decent tires will get you almost anywhere. Happy trails!
never ever ever ever take a 2wd to the beach... i work as a guide for 4x4 tours on a beach and see tows x25 a day... most get stuck in the first 100 yards. the tow is $700 off the beach too
Check out their channel, it’s incredible where they take their van with the know how to air down, understanding of terrain etc. but without Alex’s knowledge, 4x4 is definitely a good idea haha
@@NateMurphy know your terrain? the sand will be compact in the morning and by 12 pm be super soft and completely different... this is not true of knowing your terrain. he can do it bc he is in early spring and the sand still has water in it -- in 30-45 days he wont

Thanks for having us Alex! You guys are rad folks and your build is something to be extremely proud of!!!
@@NateMurphy thank youuuu!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻😁
Lol I like that the first feature showcased here was the pee funnel. Not a bad idea!
Sensible choice for a van, and a good option for me being on a budget. Did REE physically build your system? What does something like that cost?
Hey, Alex installed the system himself :)
I’d like this build in my van plz
nice build!
Right?! They absolutely crushed this one!

@@NateMurphy its a very very bad idea that can get your car swallowed by the ocean in hours and promoting it is dumb
