I’ve been thinking on this for a couple of years. After reading the other comment here regarding weight, my decision to utilize carbon fiber is solidified. It will not require me to upgrade components on the vehicle. The cost will be a wash in comparison.

It's nice; however, the added weight. Is it within the vehicle's registered cargo weight!? Is the suspension upgraded!? Is a transmission cooler (if automatic) required on this model!? Upgraded brakes for stopping!? Tire ratings!? Etc. Will this vehicle tow a trailer or even have a 2 inch reciever basket!? The vehicle may do fine on flat roads. But add hills, road conditions like snow or mud, even the slightest off road use... and problems may occur. Just say as an extreme overlander, these are things many forget to consider.

I am blown away by how much room and storage you can fit in that car. Just amazing.

Dude such a sick build!!!

Her idea of using spare tire space, plus ALL that flexible storage/sleeping space you found in a WAGON - combined genius! Subscribed, hooked, addicted...

Brian, I am so amazed at your talent and skill! Really great build! Thanks for sharing!

Omg, I love this and how you executed her ideas so perfectly!!

A rooftop roll-out annex would compliment this perfectly. I have a custom 4m x 3m on my 2005 outback and use it every time I go camping and love it!

This is kickass! I am using a legacy and was wondering about taking the back seats out, I'm happy to see how well it works! Thanks for the awesome video

This is a very cool conversion. Well done, guys. All the best on your climbing trip.

Brian, Wow that was impressive use of space! Great job! Solar too!

Great work! I assume she’ll be sealing and finishing all the wood surfaces. Excellent use of space and approach to the layout--it’s a really small car interior, so you did a terrific job of meeting all her needs.

Love this! One of the more creative builds I've seen to date.

Really cool! Tonssss of storage there👍 I love my build, but this seems like another great option.

I drive a Santa Fe and have been watching van build videos for the last year looking forward to the day when I can get a van. I'm so glad people like this guy are also on KZread. I realize now that there's plenty I can do with my Santa Fe so I don't have to wait or spend money on a van. I've already got some ideas that I'm going to try out.

A very practical design & build for the limited size of the vehicle. Thumbs up to everyone involved.

Dude!!! This thing is awesome!! Gives me so many ideas of what I want my Subaru to become! I love Subaru’s so much, and I plan to mimic this design to my own best abilities

There are many things to consider before building out any rig. Weight rating of a vehicle, suspension, transmission, tires, brakes, where will it be driven, etc. This is based on longevity of the vehicle, safety for self and others, legality and insurance, etc. Just saying.

I have built out my Hyundai Tucson in much the same way. The mattress to get is the Exped Megamat 10. It rolls up to not much if you need to transport something in the sleeping space. It's also incredibly comfortable and holds its shape and air like you wouldn't believe.

Very clever build. You should be proud of that one, I am impressed. When you walked around to show the water I was expecting an above rack outdoor shower with her outdoor lifestyle. Thinking about pulling out the tank-corner was smart, It surprised me, I would have had to make that one...after the build, lol, Thanks for letting me see it! I’d say keep up the good work, but with your talent... I think, you don’t have a choice!

Wow! This is amazing. I’m looking for a minivan to take long trips in. Wish I could afford something like this. I absolutely love it. You do stellar work.

I have the same car and have wondered about sleeping in it and this was great - thanks.

You guys do great work. Super clean simple details. Awesome. Gave me some good ideas.

Love the build! I'm on my 4th version of outfitting my 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. My third build was done by my son in law who is a finishing carpenter .. so we built all the cabinetry like you did. And where is it now? On the garage floor. I built a place where there was almost no room left for me! LOL Now I have my bed and that is a raised deck to level me out but has storage under it. Now all my cooking gear and food go into a 'larder' that I can remove and it becomes my seat outside and cooking area too. All my clothing now goes into stuff sacks that can be compressed .. the sacks are also waterproof. Now for sleeping or just relaxing I have way more room .. when I pack up, the big Plano plastic box has wheels on one end and I lift it in and strap in down .. all hard items in my rig are secured. Hope you don't take offense that I may be 'dissing' you work .. it is gorgeous .. just saying what I ended up doing.

Great job bro. It's amazing exactly what you can squeeze into an outback. Perfect...

I love my Subaru, and I love this build!!! Fabulous!!!!!

I remember when this video came out. Hope it hits a million views!

Woow .... one of the best car conversion I have seen so far ..... congrats ... she gonna have a lot of fun 👍👍

Who cares

Great job on the design and build. Tight area to work with on an a Outback. Well done.

Really quality work my friend. Add some access to the cabinet space from the left back/passenger door and you can grab items from outside the vehicle when you need them in a hurry after getting out of the drivers seat. That and some coat hooks for your puffy/misc. clothes on that 45 degree section above the water tank. That’s how I rigged “the garage” on my minivan buildout and it is a dream. Rain coat/puffy are right there after you hop out of the drivers seat depending on weather. Not to mention my rack and haul bags. 👍 Also, using a Kreg jig on 1/2” ply worked well throughout on my rig, you’d be surprised how sturdy that stuff is on edge or even over a 2’ span when laid flat. Again awesome attention to detail and quality work brother! 👍 Thanks for the tour.

WATERTANK is going to be heavy to manibulate other than for mending. Consider a pump and hose (or funnle). Otherwise truely excellent sample of execution(elegant efficiancy) (Mention perhaps that the type and thickness of wood can double the weight fast...)

Well designed and well-executed build! It is amazing that you managed to fit everything on her list in the available space and did it so elegantly

I would mount the solar panel towards the front of the roof rack. Having it angled upward like that is creating lift and a force trying to pull it off rather then pushing it down. The organizer is amazing.

There is a lot of engineering when doing a proper overland or off road build, even when DIY. How will the build react to a front and rear collision, as well as a roll over!? Weight distribution!? Weight restrictions of a vehicle, which includes the build, people, gear and supplies. Suspension and brake upgrades. Cooler for automatic transmissions. Will a 2 inch reciever be used for towing or carrying. Terrain and weather conditions. Etc. One mod causes a chain reaction of other mods, as vehicle manufacturer engineers design a vehicle to perform within specific specifications. Without proper considerations, not only is there safety issues, but also impacts the longevity of the vehicle. I'm seeing more and more people doing builds without consideration of any of the said examples. Eventually this will impact proper builds for the overland and off road communities, which I'm a part of. Like when building anything, the proper tools are used and safety is a must; it begins with choosing the proper vehicle for an application, not what feels good or looks nice.
