Fridge on the slider to allow swivel....Have not seen that, priceless space saving not having to put the fridge in the back

Yes!

Their cabinets look fantastic. We've all seen countless conversion vehicles, and these are potentially the best looking diy cabinets I've seen. Lol, I'd be as proud ad Lily is. They seem like great people. Dig their van. "Go Girl?" I prefer the, "She'wee."

Hi! Loved your video but l almost screamed when you talked about the water supply. DON'T drink from or use a garden hose to fill your tank. They notoriously harbor bacteria. Buy a white hose w/blue stripe which are anti bacterial. Green garden hose that lays around empty are dark and warm. Perfect for petri dishes but not too good for potable water. Hope l helped. Bon voyage.

I cringed as well. Also, using faucets in park may be non potable water. Good for irrigation, and getting e.coli. Definitely need a toilet in the van, as well as an emergency department.

they seem so nice and down to earth

Hey Lily and Schuyler, where'd you get your divider curtains and rod(?)? Thank you.

Great interviewing and thank-you to Lilly for being so candid. I have an E350 van I am working on converting right now. I have to be out of my current residence by September 1st and contemplating trying to live in my van this coming year, and I am kind of scared, and even a little depressed about it. This info helps, I appreciate it.

it's nice to have plenty of cabinets etc. it makes it more functional and looks more like a house. These stealth vans are the "THE NEW TINY HOMES " FOR many PEOPLE. The only thing i would like to ad is that when i see any of these vans that fix full size beds is it will save a lot more room to make a couch/bed combo that slides out with slats when the bed is used . so when the bed ins't being used you have more floor usable space. you can check out stealth van videos and find many who have done beds that way .

My wife and I have discussed the fixed vs folding bed question. For us we want fixed since we don’t want hassle with making and putting away a bed every day. We’re building ours for long weekend getaways not for full time living. Comfortable bed is top priority.

I just paid $7500 for a 2007 Chevy Express. 2 weeks later I find out the rear pinion bearing is shot. $2000 to fix it. But was also told it could go bad again in 8 months.

Dang, so sorry to hear Julie!

Cozy little setup, nice aesthetic, and the fridge pullout is great. BUT… I noticed immediately that both are kneeling, crouching, hunching to move through the space. I can’t imagine living in a van you cannot stand in… inevitable back & neck pain on the daily, living on pain relievers… do you kneel to wash dishes or prep a meal? Sorry to say but crawling around is a dealbreaker for me.
