Their ambulance features a kitchen with butcher block countertops, bench seating, bathroom, & a fixed bed.

Well done, one of the few that does not play music while there is talking. Perfect, I hope others learn from this. Nice build too.
Very nice ambulance 🚑 😊❤.

I think this is the best Ambulance conversion I’ve seen. The swiveling front seats, the shower, the kitchen, etc. Well done!
I have been watching conversion videos for a long time (obsessed), and this one is the best one ever. Great design, immaculate workmanship, no clutter, a place for absolutely everything, great kitchen, great bed...yes, it has everything. The exterior is brilliantly designed too. I'm envious lol. They have created a dream vehicle/home, and I wish them many miles of adventuring and discovering. 🚑 😊

This is wonderful! I forgot we were touring an ambulance until it was mentioned again. I love the windows! I wish I had them in my tiny (toy hauler) home. The bottle opener is a fun touch.

Thank you. We spent a lot of time coming up with this layout.
I love what you did with the cab seats swiveling forward and whole cab divider cut away. It adds a lot of space and light to a dark spot. Bravo on this build. Full bathroom, lovely kitchen, tons of storage drawers, revamped electrical - wow! Very impressed with the behind the scenes work you both did to remove unnecessary stuff and remodel according to needs. That is a tough, labor intensive job and no joke! It is my dream to convert one too, simply because, like you said, it is the best van built among the regular vans.
Absolutely amazing. 💯
Awesome build
P.S. Love your laugh! And your doggie is beautiful.
the drying rack is such a great idea... couldn't find it on the ikea website though
ALEX AND CRYSTAL YOU TWO ARE FANTASTIC!

Arguably one of the best ambulance builds I've ever seen on KZread. Great job guys!
Absolutely beautiful (and functional) work!
Your Rig lay out looks nice for your needs. I personally would never build my bed across the back doors though. I prefer to keep the back doors completely free in case they would ever need to be used as an Emergency exit in the event of a fire between the Ambo Cab, and Ambo box area. Most Box Type Ambulances have a bench seat, which I would add an extension to that would come out from the edge of the bench seat, but I would build the extension in a way so that it could be folded up, or dropped down when not in use.
Your rig is perfection!
Great job on the demo but keeping the best parts of the Ambo. You made an odd shape square for full time living. Great build inside and out and what a great deal on the rig.
