About this van:
While in Albarracín earlier this year I met up with my friend John and he showed me around the van he has built. The last time I hung out with John was in China a few years ago, when I was just starting to think about doing a van conversion so it was awesome to see that since then John has done a sick build of his own.
The van is beautifully built and finished and has some really cool features like multi-coloured lighting, a massive double sided kitchen and some next level security features!

    @@MatthewWatches Really? I haven't seen many school shootings in for example the Scandinavian countries, but a lot of that is happening in the US while the US is much less restrictive regarding firearms. Crime typically gets out of control when there is a weak law and order system in the country. Letting every knucklehead walk around with firearms is not the wise way to go, it's better to let the professionals handle law and order.

    @@MatthewWatches The frequency of school shootings has been rising since the 1940s and they have spiked in the 1990s. About 20% of the 160 school shootings since 1900 have occurred during the last four years. Data on school shooters provided by official reports refer only to former’ and current’ students. This approach could explain the findings of the U.S. Secret Service and the U.S. Department of Education (2004, p. 19) who concluded that the attackers “ranged in age from 11 to 21.” The findings of this study show that school shooters are, generally, white males between 11 and 55 years of age. Only 52% of the 163 school shooters were less than 21 years of age. About 72% of all perpetrators were less than 31 years of age (Figure 1). Eight of the 163 perpetrators were women and 11% of them were foreign students or first-generation immigrants (United States, Canada, France and Norway) This study was done in 2013, and since then the amount of school shootings has ballooned (17 school shootings in 2018 alone, and 290 since 2013). Keep blaming the media and ignore the fact that this phenomena exists and it isn't rare at all. It is only rare in countries outside of the United States. Lastly, the security topic of the video deals with theft, I'm sure your gun does nothing for your van while shopping at your favorite Walmart.

For the sake of completion, make sure to put radar-absorbent tiles on that Camry, get a low light/night vision driving solution, and noise baffling for a truly stealthy ninja junker. Either that, or put a Maybach V12 in the Camry for the ultimate sleeper getaway vehicle. /sarcasm tongue-in-cheek

    The tiles were a nice touch, not only for heat-resistance, but also for aesthetics, as were the overlapping kitchen bench tops. The design of the kitchen overall was really well done, how it's split on both sides of the van. It offers so much more room to move, especially with the fridge tucked away under the bed. Security measures were smart and the recessed lighting was also well done, but I *really* appreciated the effort to hide wiring. Overall this is one of the best I've seen on KZread and it's inspiring me to make one myself. Well done. You should be rightly proud.

    Yes, I would do it that way aswell! So many van builds on YT aren't being safe with their gas tanks. I don't get it at all. Everybody acts like it's normal to drive ánd live with a gas bottle just out in the open. While outside of van life, both driving with a gas bottle (besides transporting it to a certain location) and using it inside a home is considered highly unsafe and illegal even. But other than that this is a nice van build.

    @@Tenebarum i guess that works if you have a solid relationship but for a guy who's meeting new people it's not the ideal way to start things off. and traveling a lot, you're bound to meet an amount of new people. "I live in a van" "Oh cool, I'll check it out" "Sooo wanna spend the night" "I think I'll pass" Not many girls wanna poop or pee in front of a guy on the first date or first 10 dates. Or hold their poop or pee in all night either.

    @@Tenebarum for me, if you are a single guy and looking, you need to have the right things in place to increase your chances of success. If an existing couple is building a van, then that's a different story. the guy in the video seems single but I don't really know. The commenter seems more interested in striking conversation with the guy than anything else. How many random female commenters talk about "sexy time" on their unrequested public comments to a male?

    The extra armor protection is quite heavy and unnecessary (it'd feel like driving a fully loaded pickup truck everywhere you go (also a hotbox)). Retired Ambulances are used for camper conversions and might feel similar. But at that point you might as well just get an older metal box truck for its simple design for renovations, versatility, and low costs. Simply put, It's more practical to upgrade the locking mechanisms and security in other vehicles.

    I saw a "hardened" version of the van I eventually bought (GMC Savana cargo van) for sale online, which was bulletproofed by a company in Texas. I guess it was used to transport valuable cargo across the southwest. Anyway, it was already super heavy without any build out- which was a major downside. Also, I had to think about how often I planned on getting shot at, versus how often I would want to roll down the windows. The windows didn't roll down, they were an inch thick. Additionally the van was way over my budget, so....

    Sometimes I feel like, in my (first) van, I shall sacrifice the stove area for a (study / PC) desk... I think I am willing to eat "raw" often in the van, also can use a camper stove outside and treat myself to a local restaurant for a warm dish at some intervals too... Or, also entertaining the version where we first design/build a study / PC desk area or corner and the desk incorporates the kitchen... in other words, the area looks more like a desk at first sight, but a sink and stove hide under hinged covers or similar...

I like how everything looks so clutter free I think that people think because it's a small space it's free of clutter but some builds have so much stuff. The couch is an interesting touch too, usually the seating is across or it's a dinning area that turns into a bed, but I like how this is separate. I never knew this much security was need also I thought it would be more techie, I live in California and literately everyone is into getting security cam usually like the doorbell if not security all around their house. I like this it's a wonderful van build and almost as gorgeous as his voice. OMG!
