  • This is a 2018 Ram Promaster 2500 159wb. I added spray foam insulation, luan walls painted white, rear wall (per owners request), with a 5000 btu window a/c unit (yes you do have to have the back doors open to run the a/c), it has a twin bed, seating on both sides, a pull out table, chest style refrigerator/ freezer, a 5kw Chinese diesel heater, 18" sink, Residential faucet with hose, 7gal fresh water, 7gal gray water, butcher block counter top, a 24" closet, bulkhead wall with sliding doors, 10 LED puck lights, dimmer switches, 2 maxxair fans, 600 watts of Renogy solar, rover 40a MPPT charge controller, Renogy 2000w pure sinewave inverter/ charger, 2 Vmax 6v 225ah batteries (will be adding 2 more soon), and a 4 camera monitor system. My part of THIS build (owner already had some of the stuff) was $15,000.00 parts and labor.
    I am located in Taswell Indiana (47175) ,

    Absolutely beautiful design.....really. Not sure that I will ever have a van, but if I run into someone who needs one.....I will for sure get them to look at this video. Great job, and Its nice that she has the option to turn the closet into a bathroom. Bravo!

    • @lorcro2000
      @lorcro2000 Před 5 lety +8

      The stove is solvable with a portable propane stove, though, and the toilet by getting a composting toilet and putting it in the closet, for instance. Possibly on sliders so you can pull it out. I'm really surprised a build for a lady doesn't have the toilet situation covered already. A shower you can work around and shower elsewhere, but if she wakes up in the middle of the night, having to leave the van or even having to find a toilet and then leave the van just seems like a bad idea. A home without a toilet is just silly in my opinion. I'm a guy and I still want a way to go to the bathroom without having to find some disgusting public toilet or using a bucket.

      Im new to all this. Wondering if I found a spot, say in a large apartment complex to park, would the ventilation to the outside be a dead giveaway that someone was in there? That the van probably didnt belong there??

    • @lorcro2000
      @lorcro2000 Před 4 lety +1

      @@sheiladale6200 There's probably nothing like stealth to begin with. People who have lots of vehicle dwellers in that area tend to learn to spot them. A van needs things to be livable anyway, like a Maxxfan or two on the roof, solar panels etc. And you need to block windows to not roast in the sun. You can't eliminate all clues regardless, but if you park smart you can work around it. As for the toilet, you can vent it under the van, so that's not going to be a giveaway.

I think I’ll eliminate the cooler and put a stand up refrigerator where the bench seat on the passenger side is . I don’t know what I’ll put where the cooler is . Maybe a cabinet with a cooktop above . I’m sure it’s perfect for her just the way it is .

    If I can do this some day, since I have allergies is there safe insulation products. Like the ventilation fas and air fans. Waiting till there can create 1000 watts in a small footprint on the roof. Thank you for you tour, I love the real wood, non off gas products in use.
