- The Transit Camper Van is built from a 2021 Ford Transit cargo van and was completed in March 2022. I built this van for myself as a traveling home/office/tool van. I decided to travel around the country working on farms, and wanted to bring my tools with me to be able to work on any projects they would have for me. I accomplished this by building out 6 long storage drawers in the back of the van custom-sized to my tools and tool boxes (I also was sure to leave a cubby for my golf clubs) For the living space I added a kitchen with a sink, induction cooktop, fridge, and plenty of counterspace, as well as a bathroom with a toilet and shower, and a bed and upper cabinet storage. It’s set up for off-grid adventures with 375 watts of solar and 300Ah of Lithium batteries as well as a 40 gallon fresh water tank and composting toilet. Carried on the back I have my trusty TW200 that allows me to go anywhere I can’t get with the van. I’ve enjoyed it for the last year but it’s time to move on to new projects so I’m excited to see someone else make memories with it!

This build is crazy good.
Thank you!
I've been watching lots of these van tours, and I wished that everyone would say right at the beginning when they're talking about the platform they started with whether it was rear wheel drive front wheel, drive or four-wheel-drive. That is a supreme importance to. I would think many people, because without all wheel, drive, your suddenly limited in so many ways as to where you can go what you can do in different road conditions and different seasons, I know there's creative ways to get around that but if you're truly a Leifer, there's nothing like having all-wheel-drive
Very nice van and loads of cool features. That shower! Wow. Just a comment for the next video: I struggled to hear you most of the time, but I loved the pace of the video and all the great information.
Awesome cohesive van build with luxury and functionality to boot! 💪🏻😤
Remarkable van build, looks spot on. It looks professional, practical, and comfortable.
Thank you!
Agree completely!! 👏👏👌👌👍👍
Hi Eric I really love your van!! Beautiful, smart thinking!!❤😊
Great van design! Can't believe you got a bathroom and a closet!
Thank you!
What a great build ! - first Rv with a "garage shop" I've ever seen.
Thank you!
This man is an artist that spared no expenses. Beautiful van build, Impressive craftsmanship.
Excellent and rolling tool heavy...
That wall by the work space would be crazy if it was a white board. I love this van design!
Thank you and that is a great idea!
Wow! Nice work, very nice! 👏👍
offensively clean build!
Wow, that garage! Please do a whole video on the garage build/design. Awesome.
That's a good idea, I'll try to do that!
Outstanding job
Awesome build, nice work
Thank you!
Fantastic van! Everything one would need in a beautiful package.
The best setup of all that I have seen so far 👍
Love the design, very warm feeling.
Thank you!
Very nicely done!
I am a super big fan of air fryers and am very impressed you made room in the drawer to have one.
Beautiful van!
Most comprehensive and functional floor plan!!! Simply I ❤it. Thanks for sharing this beautiful piece!
Really beautiful and well thought out. I love the garage!
Thank you!
Nice job, Eric!
Thank you!
Beautiful job!!!
Thank you!
Wow beautiful ❤
Any build that includes a motorcycle is a winner in my book. Good stuff. Hope you enjoy it!
Agreed thank you!
You absolutely killed it sire! Can you give us some more info on your background, as your build looks super professional.
Thanks for sharing this great content!
What a nice build, you put it together really nice and functional!
Thank you!
Nice build
You have a very well thought out, beautiful van! It looks so clean and professional!
Pretty cool!
Very nice!
very cool. love it.
New meaning to living "in a van down by the river"
this looks very nice.
Wow. Amazing build
Fantastic build! Your attention to detail is top notch. I imagine that the deck and solar panels keep the sun from heating up the inside too. Thankyou for sharing.
Beautiful finished work!
Thank you!
Very impressed. Like the cabinets. Good design and saves weight. The garage definitely Inspirational.
Extremely awesome.
Really nice build
Thank you!
I love this!!! Nice job Eric - you should be proud of yourself.
Very nice love it
Thank you!
Like! Respect! Super! 😊
Thank you!
Nice Van
Your Van build is great! ❤❤. Bad mic though
Best on youtube!
Awesome build, you definitely thought about making everything convenient, accessible. What is the height of Your bed , floor to the top of your cabinet pull outs? I love the space under your bed.
Thank you! The bed is 35" high.
Love❤
Love it. Thanks for sharing. What awning do you have?
Thank you! It is a Fiamma f45s
hi ..love the design!! can you share details on your bike rack? thank you so much!!
Love it great job… your build is the closer I’ve seen to what I want to do… Thank you! Now, where did you find the hitch for the bike? I have a HD Iron 883 and regardless is small I am afraid it might be too heavy for a hitch
Top 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You look like you’re from Whatcom county. Am I right? Anyway, nice build and nice van. I have a high room Transit van as well but it’s not a long one.
Close, I'm from Snohomish county! Thank you, that's awesome they are great vans!
Great build! Curious though, why didn’t you insulate the back doors? I’m assuming you could greatly reduce your heating/cooling load by adding something there. Also, what’s up with the tools? Can’t imagine you need a nail gun often on the road…
Awesome build. Can I ask what the floor to ceiling height is for tall guys?
wow, great van build. How often do you bang your head on the over head cabinets getting in and out of bed?
Nice! (More tools than clothes...?)
Beautiful and functional build. Would you mind sharing where you got your motorcycle carrier and the swing out arm that can handle the weight?
Thank you! The motorcycle carrier is from MotoTote and the swing arm is from RakAttach
Great build! Did you do it yourself? Mind if I ask how long it took you and roughly how much in cost? Thanks!
Very nicely made. Whats the total weight of the Van with everything filled up?
Thank you! I actually haven't gotten it weighed yet since finishing the build.
That curved ceiling is becuz it's a high roof right or is it the same with a mid roof?
Hej Eric. In terms of windows. Did you consider putting windows in the reardoors.?
I always wonder about bed configuration like yours. Are you able to sleep laying flat? Or do you have to sleep diagonal and on your side? I'm 6'0 and worry about that.
How did u take out the ac out underneath the passenger sit? Did u have to take it to the mechanic? Did u take it out urself? I am at that point n I want to take out the carpet. The pips is in my way. Also was it hard to get the battery out on the driver side? So I can take the carpet out as well.
Fantastic build! What is the gas mileage like?
Could you link the swing arm for the motorcycle rack?
Can you please send me a link of the bike mount😅!!!!!
👍
What swivel seats did you buy?
But where’s the garage deck that was in the thumbnail?!
Is this the 5 tonne with an increased payload to like 2.5 tonne ?
Spare tire?
Could fit all those battery tools in one deep drawer, save a heap of space
Nothing Girlie about that van bud
There is no such thing as hot water heater.
Low talker
You still need a guard dog to alert you to strangers sniffing around your van and a pistol to deal with armed intruders and robbers?
Kinda loses it's value watching these thing if every single unique van lifer sets up their van the exact same way as everyone else. nothing personal, just saying.
Not a very good layout for me, and I fell asleep as you droned on your description. Get someone else to speak on your next video.
whats more awkward.... the dude ? the fact that the principal and most imprtant rear door of the transit can not be easily openned every single time that precose door we all have to open 20 times more than the one on the left.. I would had made a swing for the bike that swings the other way... the dude did not stop holding the rear right door the entire time, he holds it so much that you can totally tell that specific door is full of dents.. some of us have to make our 2015 350hd dually with very limited budgets.. so it hurts to see so much waste and bad made decicions.
I love how you organized the garage. Excellent job! I also love the microwave/ coffee slide out. Although in my case it would be tea. So easy to access and to put away.
That's a good point with the swing arm, probably would've worked better to swing it the other way. Good luck with your build!
Is this how you express your opinion face to face, too, or just in the internet? There were many nice things in this build. One thing you did not like. Fair enough. You may be right, you may be wrong. Regardless, say it respectfully.
True .. Facts 😊
Who cares which way the rack swings out, I was admiring how seamlessly that fun TW200 fits on the back. Great build btw and love the Packouts
