In this video, we walk through our van's cargo set-up, discussing the installation process and a review of the components we installed. Learn about our fan, Rhino Rack rails, cargo basket & ARB awning & how they all fit together. We designed and converted our 2010 Ford Transit Connect cargo van into a camper that sleeps two people.

    I have a 2010 FTC built out with a single bed for a solo traveler. Loved your video. Got a couple of good ideas from you. BTW: This vehicle/microcamper is an absolute blast to drive and camp in! Key points: Great to drive. Easy to park. Good gas mileage and parts are available everywhere. Thanks for your video!

    Great job organizing. I understand why you didn’t insulate. But I think insulating with Thinsulate is worth it for comfort.

    What an ingenious use of space! so sleek. i appreciate the choice to let the bed take up the whole van instead of trying to cram a sprinter floorplan into a connect.

    Quick question does your vent fan close all the way? I'm debating on a center or a offset vent fan location for my own build currently.

    @Scrambler85 Před 2 lety

    I'm very impressed, I have seen probably 20-25 of these smaller size van builds and this is the first one I think I would fit in to sleep. Very well thought out and organized Definitely a thumbs up 👍

    Nice, but if you minus some weights, it will be easier for the small 4 cylinders engine, plus better gas mileage.. Good luck with your future, stay safe and take care of each other. Peace and Love.

    You time lapse and music selection where really well done. I think its funny how virtually every video on youtube about truck conversions looks the same. I'm a backpacker and theres a pain in the butt phenomenon called summit fever. It speaks to the missed opportunities and poor decisions made because your mind is on the summit and not in the present. It applies to the descent as well. I think that applies to art projects and builds like this. We are so eager to get to the GD finishes...the fancy fan and the pretty tongue and groove wood and sinks and storage that we don't do the underneath work that can truly make a vehicle comfortable. I doubt I'll live long enough because people just get something in their heads and it takes generations to undo it. Reflectix is not an insulator. there's no easier way to put it. Its a conductor of heat and if you don't believe me try taking that emergency blanket....right out of the package all folded up 30 layers deep and use it as a pot holder when you make dinner tonight. THEN you will know the truth. The little air pockets also perfectly convect heat away. Air molecules are just a tiny bit smaller (lol) than those giant air bubbles....more than enough room for convection. Fold must be suspended to get the relatively minor thermal reflection. Its how they insulate sleeping pads. put an emergency blanket under your sleeping pad and feel the heat conduct right into the ground. Styrofoam everywhere should be the star of these builds before anything else. I,m just finishing mine now. I have no storage, I have space and 2 super comfy custom reclining chair/beds. No power no fan and small battery powered lights. It was 102 degrees F yesterday and sitting inside with the windows open was like sitting under a shady tree....felt like 20 degrees cooler (who knows). It could be zero degrees and I'd be just as comfortable. It kills sound like a champ and all of my buildout...made in one way or another ALL with styrofoam can be removed and put back to a cpt'd shell truck in about 5 minutes while holding all the components in two arms. It took me over a year to work through all the other stuff that everyone else builds and just let that be fantasy...what I have is crazy similar to my ultralight backpacking style. Everything you need to be very comfortable and exactly nothing more. And convertible (I have a pickup set up). I hope this helps if anyone is considering a really cool build like this. It's a real pain but taking the time will make you so much more comfortable....In that I'm just finishing it I've only spent a cpl nights in it. With a window cracked about a 1/2 inch I had no condensation.....which was weird...I'm sure I'll get some but I also cover the windows at night with custom 1 1/2'' styrofoam as well so very little heat ever touches the windows to condense. Try it, messy but fun. All the stryo is sealed and covered with fabric so the mess ends one day GREAT VAN by the way. Thanks for sharing

    That's cool guys, you might want to try putting some runners in your side access, so those areas come out to you, would be easier for the cooler etc. Hope you're having a great adventure 😉

I've got a tc but it was a wheel delivery van with a cage and it has 280k miles so I'm not going to dump money in but I'm planning on taking it for some mini trips with some temporary stuff in it but I got some good ideas to fit more things..mines all metal so magnets will work great lol
