  • This is our 1977 VW Camper Van! We are starting the year in Hawaii, and living out of a van... and we couldn't be more stoked! This is the first episode in what will be a 5 part video series. It's our first time doing the van life thing, and we show you around our van and give you an idea of what to expect in the coming episodes. Hope you love our van as much as we do and can't wait to share more.
    At the end of 2019 and beginning of 2020, we rented a 1977 VW camper van on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. We have been wanting to try the van life for a while now and this 6 day adventure is our chance! The trip was full of adventures and I will be posting a new episode every week for the next 5 weeks. This is the first time trying a multi-part series like this, and I can't wait to share it with you :)

    I lived in my 1970 vw camper bus for 3 years in 1978 lots of memories

    We had a VW Campmobile like this one but it came
    with a board which could be suspended over the
    front seat for our third child. Loved that camper!
    Went twice from Texas to 🇨🇦 🍁 Canada and back.
    It had an ammonia icebox which didn't work anymore, so I took the innards out, built in a drain
    and, VOILA...an ICEBOX!

    I have the same bus but mines an orange 73
    I don’t know about fun when it comes to driving it tho, mines my daily and it’s 20 degrees here, takes about an hour to warm up, can’t take the freeway to work, gotta pump brakes to stop, adjust valves every 3k miles... I miss my 2014 Toyota Tacoma lol

    When you guys describe what it's like to drive the van I'm having a panic attack, it does not sound fun lol. I mean.. the actual driving part, the rest sounds super fun! I would like to be a passenger.

    I died a little inside once I saw it was automatic. That's really the only downside of this entire video.

      @@JustinPooreVlog That's fair. Better to drive one of these babies anyway you can, right? I've never driven one of these so I don't know if it would be easy to drive in stick or not. Either way, it looks like you guys had a hell of a time. I've actually bookmarked that rental company so maybe I can rent a VW from them someday.

      But yes, it is amazing to drive. Me and my girlfriend have travelled all the UK, I cannot recommend it enough. If you ever get the chance to go to Scotland you NEED to drive the NC500. It's pretty much Scotland's route 66 lol

    Can you please make your content inclusive and accessible to everyone by formatting the auto captioning into closed captioning please? it is very hard to enjoy your content relying on only the auto captioning sadly (I'm Profoundly Deaf)

      @JustinPooreVlog  Před 3 lety

      Hey Edward! Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I totally understand and you are right! I need to make sure I'm making content that can be enjoyed by everyone :) I will do my best to make sure captions are added for things I post in the future and I'll try to add more captions to the content I've already posted
