No nonsense honest guy living a great life! That’s happiness.
That “bathroom” design is really cool, I’ve never seen a setup like that, most people have their toilet in their kitchen or under a couch..
That "drying drawer" idea is great.
Very nice. That ambulance was quite a find. It's responsibly well thought out, with conveniences and practical applications. It does place the focus on living. Thanks for the tour!
$120K for this rig is money well spent imo, I would do it in a heartbeat. Hmmmm I need the ambu first so I am going to start looking, today.
Idk how he sunk so much money into it considering it looks so cheap- like $70k on what?
Often times it depends on what the owner's priorities and wants are such as equipment, wheels, tires, solar, cooling and heater which all can add up quickly. Many people don't care about the inside aesthetics and focus on the outside. I recently saw a dude with a $190K van, the inside was nothing to brag about, it was all about the outside and being able brag at festivals and meet ups and such. I could never spend that kind of money on a van.
You can convert something or build it yourself for a fraction of that.
I would have to pay to have it done.
I saw this build over a year ago. This didn't show the TV or sound system. What an awesome build!
Now 🤔 that's what I'm talking about a ride
Again? My fav but again?
Your "monster" is awesome! I'm still in my beautiful e150 triton. No build. I have a bed, dressers, etc love nomadic life style, such freedom! Saving a lot of money, no bills. I have 1200 solar in several panels flex, 2000 inverter, and 1750 watts in 4 generators and smaller cells to charge snake things. I love it! Peace, joy, love, and safety on your life journey!
The the bathroom is pretty smart!!! And why did the park buy this vehicle and only use it for 14,000 miles? I have so many questions lol.
Hi out of all the tiny homes/mobile homes. I reckon this is the best one I’ve ever seen. Absolutely love it looks fantastic. You did a great job Scott everything you need and every think you want. Keep up the good work , Cliff from Australia 😊
I wouldn’t consider that a tall fridge as much as a fridge you put up at eye level, lol. Either way- much better to do it the way you did it anyway! I don’t know how people bend to find their stuff everytime in those tiny fridges. Would drive me bananas!
You’ve thought of everything! I really love it!
Wow this is great!!!!
Perfect rig!
Nicest Ambo. Build & Looks I’ve Ever Seen.😊
Wow. Loved it.
Great Design 👏👏👏Enjoy ‼️
I love this build everything is perfect smart bathroom design ( toilet) /shower as well. Money spend well on this ambulance love the clearance on the vehicle its amazing best i've seen yet.
Great build!!
Nice but if I had 120 gs man o man
Great rig, great guy, he is really responsive to comments on his channel..
Thanks for noticing.
Love it but I don’t see how he could have spent 80k on the custom build?
How many good dreams have you had.
Fuel expense?
Did he mention what brand or manufacturer he got his window shades from?
Tern Overland
Why not just dry the dishes with a towel before putting them away...
Or install a proper sized sink and use a drain board that can be used over the sink when finished washing 😊
Towel lint? I hate drying my dishes. It makes me feel like they're germy and dirty again.
Air drying is more food safe.
It’s nice, but the original off grid, and/or tiny house concept has been lost by way of how much all of this now costs to have/build. No longer a reality for most.
Not true, it's much cheaper now. You also don't have to have the bells and whistles that this guy wanted.
I do not understand how it could cost 120k.
Guess u had money. Most don't have even the $44,000.
I really enjoy seeing these videos of various types of homes on wheels
and the ambulance turned into an awesome home on wheels is one
of them and this is great especially for single people Thanks Again.
