My husband and I are building our new (well it's a 2019) but it's new to us Dodge Ram Promaster and I'm getting lots of great ideas from watching other people build theirs. I want an induction cook top and we're going with an all- in- one micro convection, grill and air fryer to save space. I cooked with micro-convection instead of my stove for many years and I loved it. Thanks for the tips.

Hi, what’s the best Astro tool ? Bc there is the 1423, 1442 or 1450 so extremely confusing 😢 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Does your lithium battery fully charge just using an isolator off your alternator?

The music is so annoying. Had to quit watching

You didn't specify what wattage the stovetop was set to. So the information is unclear and leaves too many questions.

good video instruction, thank you for sharing. I too will be using rivnuts and the rivnut tool in my next build and from some other youtube channels I've learnt to save weight and space you can directly mount your furniture using the bolts/rivnuts without the extra framing, which is a great alternative. In my first build I learnt framing is when there isn't a structure, e.g. a new house. With a van it's already a metal body structure, like having a house with walls, if that makes sense, no need to double up with extra framing unless you need to build it out to reach the furniture, it's all about learning from living. I've found my first build didn't have anything bolted to the framework and I travelled 1/2 of Australia, down terrible washerboard roads, and everything else in between and nothing fell apart, it held together no problems at all. I think too many people overthink and don't experiment by living in it before overthinking it to see what works first, e.g. Chrome from Vancity Vanlife, Matthew from VanLife Plus and many others I watch haven't put in any framing and they actually live in a van fulltime, it works, no overthinking/overdoing necessary.

Hilarious editing. Earned a sub. I Have a ninja 400. Picking up my gen 3 KLR in two weeks! Ride safe man!

I KNEWWWW it was click bait!!! You are a fraud!! So you had a high powered high income job and you saved a %$$ full to take a sabbatical and "do" the "van thing". Huh? Yeah!! And after a year of playing around traveling the country making a couple of bucks on YT, you are done on the playground now. You will go back to your high powered job and "do" the "get me super rich" thing again. I am NOT impressed!! A little boy. I thought you were living in a van becasue you more or less HAD TO. You fell on a little bit of hard times and then the reason you were quitting was due to some SERIOUS reasons. ALL these damn van life videos of quitting are ALLLL CRAP!! Run along now kid!

I use an infrared cooktop so I don’t have to use special cookware and it’s safer for reproductive health.

i know i'm late, but thanks for posting this.

Ford really sucks at building vans these days. They should have kept building the Econolines and just put on a longer and higher body. The Transits smaller engines last half the life a 5.4L flex fuel motor does. My 2012 E350 lasted 840K and was burning oil so I replaced with a factory remanufactured one. I do expediting and 95% of my miles are cruising down the interstates.

Any update on attempt #2. I may have missed something, but why didn't you make it on first attempt...you were doing great!

Wow...what a hectic day...btw, your motorcycle video's are awesome...thank you!

I just used self drilling screws to secure boards. Van builds are massively depreciating assets. The more time and money you put into the van, the more money you will want for it when you sale it someday, and it can be very hard to find a buyer that will pay over market price. If you trade it in, the dealer will low ball you because they don't care about your custom build and it can never be insured as a RV because it wasn't built by a shop. All I am saying is, your time investment will only have value to yourself and don't expect it to retain value.

That thinsulate good for hot and cold weather insulation?

I used to run down to Tijuana to pick uo tacos from Francs and return to San Diego, all the time, but sure - feel your fear.

I like this style of video where I have to interpret the story. I think it gives the viewer a sense of freedom to ascribe what it means to them.

Wouldn't it have been way cheaper just to get someone to do your oil change in Mexico. Also, Auto Zone sells single sockets 😂 Not to rain on your parade, love your videos dude, keep it up!

Of course it’s not comfortable, but it beating squatting over a cat hole. I have built a similar compost /dry toilet for a long term land lease lot across the road from a beach in Thai land. I hook the separate pee container via a plastic pipe to a 2 meter deep cat hole filled with sand that safely percolates the pee into the subsurface soil. After the poop successfully composts/dries completely I usually burn it and dispose of the ashes in the trash ir scatter it.

Good ideas in this video. Thank you! I've never heard anyone call butyl (bu-til) tape beauty-L tape before.

Hey man you randomly popped into my head and I searched you up to see if you had posted anything , hope you’re doing well keep rockin

When i was on the road truck stops were good their all over the place with a van park out front plenty of lighting.

From vans to motorbikes to trucks. Will be interesting to see where this next chapter takes you.

Hilarious!!

You're pretty Funny Man! All the random clips you put in your videos got me laughing. Reminds me of Walterific. Good Stuff!

i wish you used watt hours instead of amp hours. How many volts is your system? Wh are consistent. My ecoflow delta pros are 48v which i assume is totally different than your system.

Hey Dale, you look bored. here's an idea, buy a horse and ride it around the world, you can name the horse 'Chip'.

Great video mate!

Word of caution that is not emphasized enough when cooking with induction: your system has to have proper gauge wires from the battery to the inverter AND the connections must be tight. At over 50 amps current draw, too thin wires and/or loose connection will cause the wires to heat up and if left alone, WILL cause a fire.

Can you cook two things at the same time? How big inverter do you have for that? I was thinking about an induction stove but geez it draws alot when like boiling pasta + frying veggies/meat at the same time.

super cool bro

A few years back, I put a portable induction burner in my van and never looked back. The burner was portable, but I mounted it to my counter, so it took up space (it was not recessed). This year, I rebuilt my kitchen with a friend's help. The burner is now in a pull-out drawer. I absolutely love cooking via a flame-free device that I power with solar panels. It is just cool. I usually have enough solar to cook, but I also have a little butane burner for emergencies (no sun) or when I want to cook something greasy outside.

This was really good

Americans

We’re gonna boil 32 oz or about a quarter of a gallon 😂

What cookware are you using?

eggs over hard? the *$@& is wrong with you. jk, thx for the video

what's with the constant cutting in and out of side filler content ? this seems to be a trend ... an otherwise interesting continuous stream is made almost unwatchable by the constant cut-ins of over the top snippets. Here to see the travel-log, not a slide show of cringy wannabe-funny-clips. Stay safe and look forward to more posts.

glad to see youre still around my friend. i was worried since you hadnt uploaded in so long

Same

Yes. Thanks

Great to see you Jeremiah, even in these awful times. Missed ya Bud, thrilled to see that you've still got it!

Dude! Epic trailer to the next movie

I see the creative and deep Jeremiah is back. Great work!! Do hope you keep posting. I like this side of your brain . 😮

I've missed you, and know how you feel. It's horrible and insane. Big Hugs.

Well hello stranger, welcome back. You were missed. 👋

Would have been good video if he didnt talk so much ad waste time

Are you going to finish the videos for this trip? I loved following all the experiences and personal insites to what you were going through.

i do not own a van but thought about if i ever could get a van i would like the induction cooktop all i know is this old man needs to find a second job if i ever want to own a van. just started watching your youtube channel. keep up the good work

As you entered mx, you should have taken the first right ramp Thanks for the video
