I really like your van. It is both easy and smart. It has tons of charm. I think I’m in love with your car because I use to go back and look at it again… I’m probably a “only one van fan “ .

제가본것중 최고예요 . 다른 큰차량은 비싸고 집을 옮겨 놓은것같은 진짜 자유롭게 간단히 즐기려는것과 뜻이 맞지 않앗어요. 공간도 많이 차지하지않고 실용적이고 더구나 자체 에너지를 생성할수잇어서 무엇보다 좋앗읍니다.

Your work is amazing. Would you be willing to share how you attach wood pieces such as the one in the front (immediately behind the driver's and passenger's seats) to the headliner area? I've watched literally hundreds of builds but I'm not a builder or carpenter and can't understand for the life of me how people are attaching the custom-designed pieces to the van itself. Thank you so much in advance. 🙏🏼

You build and created a super fantastic and very impressive van. I just got myself a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan. I did a very simple no-build build, which I’m very happy with. I’ll hire someone, to build me a flat floor & kitchen like yours 👍🏼👍🏼 In the meantime I’m wondering, how you attached to cross panel for your curtains ? Thank you for sharing your ideas, it’s a great inspiration. Wishing you safe, happy & adventures travels, to you and your wife.

I donʻt know much at all except for a few videos that Iʻve watched, so please excuse my dumb questions-1) what were your thoughts about adding insulation ? and 2) although I didnʻt see entry points for water entry, any concern about potential moisture (and mold) accumulating behind the wood panels? Thanks so much for sharing…beautiful build.

Nice, future van builders use the lightest timber that you can source for your build as unnecessary mass will affect fuel consumption, road handling, suspension and your budget.

The new Toyota Sienna’s have a curtain airbag that runs the length of the side coming out of the top. So it would be very dangerous to build up any sidewalls. Too bad, it sure is pretty and functional.
