    If anybody is on the fence between this one and a less expensive version that you don’t know the build quality….. go with this one. As a Skoolie owner I can tell you that if your rig is not built well…. Things will rattle loose and tumble down quickly. Great job you two. !!

    I think building the electrical system (and probably the water) on the bench makes a lot of sense. The goal would be to make it easy to disassemble and then reassemble in the van, because chances are you’re going to need to repair or upgrade it eventually. Also, the frustration of building something in a difficult environment (close quarters, hot, etc) does not result in your best work. Thanks for this idea (probably pretty common, but I’ve just not seen it done like this).

    A lot of people just don’t have the skills or experience to build out a van from scratch. And no, not everyone can learn to do it. But they might still want a van like this and have the money to buy one because they are really good at their “day job” such as marketing, writing code, day trading, etc

    I love watching van conversions into tiny homes! GREAT WORK!! I am also trying to find others who can reach out to this awesome 76 years young woman who could really use some help with insulating, framing, and a means of showering, etc in her van. She has been living in her van full time for 2 years now and only recently got a portable air conditioner, but I dont think she has enough solar to run it very much each day. The same with heat in the colder months. With the rising cost of everything she couldnt make it on a fixed income and had to go back to work to get the necesseities to survive in the van. So please, if there is anyone out there who can provide any assistance to her or if you know of someone in the LosAngeles area who can help her with anything please do so soon, as the weather will only get hotter as we get the summer months.

A common sense advice: It is always a bad start to try to cover your expenses selling the product overpriced, you should do exactly the reverse, sell it cheaper first and then the sales will come so you can afford to rise the price.

    I disagree with this comment. I think ROI is more important. Say you bought the vans for 40k-60k, convert just one a month with roughly 10-15k worth of supplies, sell them for 100k then that’s $25k-$50k a month. I wouldn’t think about the hours you’re putting into it. The moment you treat it like a hourly job you’ll take yours guys obvious joy out of doing what you’re doing. Although I’d sell them for more than $100k this day and age. Vans like these are freaking expensive rn. Not looking to argue just think the opinion I had was a valid and worthwhile mention.
