    Ok. My wife and I are empty nesters (55 yrs old) and you two are probably younger than our 2 adult sons, which puts us a least a generation in front of you. But, with a few changes here and there to your van build, I would say, it is one of the best camper van builds we have seen yet for my wife and I. I mention the generation difference because your design would work just as well for us old farts as it does for you young adults. Even the dog is accommodated! I would say the design uses available space efficiently and elegantly. No unnecessary frills but plenty of functionality and it's comfortable! We are very impressed. Awesome! Thank you for sharing.

    Nikkiye Dettle Yeah? I listened to what Beck said, but I didn't hear him explain how truck driving as a profession is somehow safe from autonomy. He explained how vital the trucking industry is to pretty much every other industry and all retail. He explained how there's currently a shortage of drivers. But when true autonomy finally gets here it's going to first take all those jobs that can't be filled, then gradually all the other driving jobs as well, as trucks are replaced or retrofitted for autonomy. A lot of delivery truck drivers will be able to keep their jobs because the job involves unloading and delivering goods, and sometimes even stocking shelves as well as just driving. Movers will still have their jobs because most of their work is moving furniture in and out of the truck. But any job that just involves driving is likely to eventually go away. BTW: Beck says something stupid when he says grocery stores are restocked 8 times per day. Grocery stores may receive on average about 8 deliveries per day, but none of them are complete restocking shipments. No one item in the store is restocked more than once per day. Your milk delivery comes on a different truck from your Frito Lay snacks, and the Coke delivery comes in the different truck from your Pepsi products. Your breads are stocked by a different truck than your meats and vegetables and canned goods.

All the little nooks and cranny's of our wonderful country. My dreams were the same layout and colors and exact same must haves. My husband was recently diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia and I felt our world fall apart. We may not be able to live our dream and may even have to give up our current home but watching every single one of your adventures have been so real to me.

    Very nice work. You might consider on your next build to round off all the corners with a router. I once got a serious cut on the edge of a cabinet when I was in the back of our class C RV and she had to hit the brakes unexpectedly. It required a hospital visit. Also, catalytic heaters use considerably less fuel than forced air heating. You can get a version that uses outside air for burning and venting so they are totally safe. One last thing. Everywhere hot water is used in our RV, I installed a three-way valve, temperature gauge and a line to run water back to the main water tank so that while the water is coming up to temp it is flowing back to the main tank and not into the waste tank. I installed the three way valve right next to the shower head so when showering, the water coming out of the shower head is always the perfect temp with no water waste. We were able to extend our wilderness stays by a few days with the water saved. Once again, really nice work.

You two could market this build, file for a couple of patents, and sell your ideas to Chevrolet, Ford, Dodge, Chrysler, Toyota, etc., or build custom vans and make a fortune.
