You all asked for it, even though its a little late.
My dads second van build on a 2011 Chevy Express is more of an overland designed build.

These should be standard issue for every veteran that wants one, to park in his or her standard issued garage that’s right next to their standard issued brick house. Stand up for vets they stood for us!

Same way I don't want my taxes going to Ukraine and Israel I don't want my taxes going to buy a veteran a free car and a free home. The military you literally have your healthcare your food and your living all paid for why in the world did they use what money they were given to put a down payment on a home. I'm going to say what most people aren't willing to all I see is bad money management and a hint of drug\alchol abuse. The military is a job and you get paid to do so you don't deserve free things after you finish said job. At least that's not what I want my tax dollars going.

@@AmirShafeek Wow, I can feel your disdain from here. It's not free & when the job gives veterans PTSD that doesn't get covered by their healthcare, it sends them down a spiral. With that lack of empathy, you should be a Republican. I'd rather my money go to helping a veteran remain housed than to Ratheon or Boeing.
Well man this is a sweet build. I really like the features of this vehicle. The functionality is out of this world. My dad did the same thing with his old van and the doors for the exact same reason. He used it for fishing expeditions. It was old school but he had it all set up inside back in the 90's. Good to see rigs like this man.
This is a van i would use constantly. Others try to make their builds so cute and pretty but this guy kept his van manly. It jas everything you need and nothing of what you dont need. Love it.

@@TwoXJSthe cat smell? What are you even talking about? If you are referring to a cat spraying I’m sure if that is a male cat that he has been fixed which will stop the the cat from spraying so the cat is no smellier than a dog. Actually cats bath themselves much better than a dog kid. You don’t know much about cats do ya little buddy?

Are you referring to the green paint lol
Love the 4x4. You're a brave man if those straps are the only thing holding those water tanks on. I've got metal straps and 2 ratchet straps holding mine on. Love everything about your van sir.
Who needs a house, when you have a build like that? I hope vanlife movement continues to grow. Put the banks and builders on notice

geniusly stupid. the doors are one full metal piece and as such a conductor of both heat and cold, and become a literal fridge in winter. doors should be insulated too and covered with a few layers of insulation as a barrier. what more do you think is genius, having a convertible in winter?
One of the best rigs I've seen. Built for functionality. The awning and wrap around are awesome. Vantastic!
Everything about this build and rig is chef's kiss 💋 and top-tier.
Love the build and the aesthetics. The silverware in pockets is terrifying in the event of an accident 😳. Be careful.
Love that the cat came with you first time seeing a van life cat
Love this wish we had more 4x4 vans in the UK . Only Sprinters and Ford and they are expensive. 👍
This is one of the best van setups I’ve seen. They only way it could be better is E-350 insignias.

Turbo diesel, yes. They are deceptively fast and powerful
That's beautiful bro. It looks like the van The Punisher would take camping.
I've watched a lot of van videos... this is one of the best
The outside of this van is perfect. I’d do the inside differently but I want this exact outside.
A very comprehensive tour of a well designed and capable vehicle. Thanks for sharing.
What a sweet rig! All the comforts of home. Thanks for the tout. 🙋🏼
Perfect tactical van HQ . You did a great job building that
This is hands down the coolest express build I've ever seen. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Amazing van build he literally has everything you need!
You've got everything in there AND the kitchen sink! Nice work!
One of the better done vans I’ve ever seen! Great job.

Great Setup well thought out. Stick a hitch rack on the back for a motorcycle and be set up perfectly. Appreciate your sharing it with us.
The whole setup is great but having that awning would be so cool and practical. Definitely need to keep this in mind if I ever do my own build.
You've thought of everything. This is the ultimate bugout van and I want one!
Nice van, one of the best I've ever seen.
Outstanding build for this type of van. Builder has added all the bells and whistles, or "dream list" of features. Well done!
Absolutely beautiful work
Very awesome features and very well thought out layout. I love your build!
Great van. Beautiful design as well as execution.
Very nice setup!
Nice set-up. I like the storage & how he utilized everything effectively.
One of the baddest van I've seen!
Very cool. I have seen alot of these builds. Best 1 so far. Especially with the 4x4. I would so drive this everyday. Nice job.
That's a nice setup, nice craftsmanship, and attention to the fine details.

shovels and axes everywhere! lol nice looking rig brother
What a well thought out build. Kudos for the slick toilet integration. I like a cheap pump sprayer for showering and dishes it’s the most efficient for water

Love the paint job.
You won me over with the color scheme.
This van build is loaded, Wow !
Very Cool Design and Accessories ‼️👏👏👏

This is perfect. 100% perfect build. Quigley is hard to get amd big money, im buying a 2023 3500 gmc van and going to just do a rear locker. This video gives me Inspiration 👍
Great setup very functional for going anywhere. Hitch setup for a dirtbike to run errands with and would be perfect..

Killer setup. I have the same van. A 2011 Chevy Express 3500 with the Quigley 4wd. Where did you get it painted and how much did it cost? Also did you use insulation in the walls and roof?
Great looking van 👍🏽👍🏽
