This was a very good tour. A little on the short side. But it was very well done. Loved the transitions at the start. That was really clean, music was fitting. I think the only missing element that I like about vanlife people is themselves. Seems like a cool enough guy, but I don't know much about him other than he lives in or travels in his van. Interviews are key in my videos. But don't be like me, do what works for you of course. Even just him talking for five minutes is enough to keep it going. If you would like to know how I do my interviews Id be happy to tell you some time. Great work my friend. I hope this one does great!

Clean van! FWIW a full mattress fits perfectly in the back of an astro. My awd astro is a work van until the weekend comes around, then the tools go in the garage and the mattress in the back. chuck a cooler between the seats and you're good to go! Never understood the bed builds with sinks/etc.

That doesn't look like a 1995 looks more like a 2000-2005 you can tell by the facelift and the interior lights. still looks great tho I want to do something like that for my 2000 Edit: I forgot after a quick Google search that they started doing the facelift option for the Astro in 1990 I thought it started in 1999 I'm a little confused about the top lights though because they look like the ones off of my 04 that I have but my 2000 doesn't have those And my 98 has the same as my 2000
