    Incredible build! Ambulances can make great living spaces to travel the world in! Keep on inspiring!

  • @01fxstsi

    Nice conversion! That bar across the ceiling is used as both a grab handle for balance and hanging IV bags. The safe is of course for narcotics such as morphine, valium etc.. The seat across from the bench is called a CPR seat. I love that it has a sink. That's rare in an EMS unit. The closets outside, in our trucks at least, housed tactical rescue gear, extrication tools, oxygen tanks, firefighting gear etc..
    Negative energy? Well, it's like this. Every man and woman that's become an EMT or medic, has done so out of love and a sense of duty. The depth of the character of those people and their sacrifices outweigh whatever negative energy passed through that truck. They don't call them death squads. They call them rescue squads. There's a reason for that. Any residual negative energy will be overwhelmed by the awesome positivity of the two of you. Love always wins. ;)
    Again, congrats on the awesome build and you two keep doing what you're doing!

    • @jpm9766
      @jpm9766 Před 6 lety +24

      cause some people dont want to live in a confined space where people have died and bodily fluids have seeped into any nook and cranny. plus its got shitty milage. Other than that its pretty cool.

    • @sheenaallen8762
      @sheenaallen8762 Před 6 lety +18

      Because the number of people that were saved is completely irrelevant. They in no way change the fact that human beings died inside the ambulance.

    My husband and I have nearly the same model and we LOVE IT!! We were looking at the fancy Mercedes RVs for almost $100,000 to travel in. Why? For $12,500 on Craigslist we have an amazing travel vehicle with incredible storage. Yes, every time we stop for gas people ask about it. While some people have done major renovation to their ambulances, we have hardly done a thing except convert the bench into a bed. It's perfect and easy to clean, with quality materials inside and out.

    I'm a former flight nurse and paramedic and current avid camper. I've spent hundreds of hours in an ambulance...but this is the BEST use for one that I could imagine! The medic sits in the swivel chair at the head of the patient and needs to be able to reach all of the equipment and supplies. I love how you've adapted that efficient design into your home life. It seems very calming to have your belongings stored in such an orderly fashion. Chatty side note....the locked cabinet was for narcotics, etc. You both seem like very lovely people. I hope to meet you along the way someday.

Hopefully you guys completely cleaned out the back of the ambulance! The back of ambulances are very dirty! In aspect of very sick people and bloodborne pathogens. We in ems joke all the time that we wouldn't eat off the counters or floor if food where to drop on them.

    Great job! I'm in the process of kitting out a Type II ambulance for a weekend camper (a non-box type Econoline style ambulance). I chose an ambulance for exactly the same reasons you did - pre-wired, inverter installed already, shore power capable, cabinets done, etc. That little locked "safe" cabinet - that was for locked narcotic storage when the ambulance was in service - cause people will break into a parked ambulance to try and get the fun drugs. Did you change the cabinets to have those tip-out fronts? My vehicle only has the slide plexiglass fronts - which are great since nothing falls out when traveling ! Great job you two !

    It’s disturbing to me how many people make negative comments about folks dying in the back of your ambulance. The back of my ambulance is a sacred space, and yes people have died there, but in no means does that give the space a negative energy. People also are given a fighting chance at life back there, people’s pain is taken away. Some of the best, most meaningful moments of my life have happened in the back of my ambulance. Fuck the haters, they will never know what life, and death for that matter, is all about. Thanks for sharing your space with us. If you ever get a chance to ride with medics, you’ll see that even when things are going really poorly, we do our best and keep laughing. Take that energy with you friends!

  • @kayc7786
    @kayc7786 Před 2 lety

    I bought an ex-ambulance to use as mobile storage and camping. I basically did no reno at all because the interior is already perfect with the storage and bench seat. To me, this is the best vehicle for an inexpensive camper. You don’t HAVE to renovate it because the interior already has storage and a bench that works as a single bed. The aisle is 4 wide’ (big enough for two people) so by simply throwing a mattress down, that could have been the seat cushion for the bench (which is 6’ long), you could have a larger bed. The storage compartment behind the passenger seat is large enough to use as a tiny bathroom if necessary, but I wouldn’t even add plumbing. The windows in mine are tinted, so I get plenty of sunlight but still feel like I have privacy. The materials in the interior are inherently strong and easy to clean. Access between the box and the cab is amazing, because you don’t have to go outside to drive away.

  • @wr70beh
    @wr70beh Před 5 lety +1

    Pretty nice rig. It looks like they didn't have to do a whole lot to it other than build the futon, add some kitchen items and paint it gray. Ambulances are great bases to build whatever you want recreation-wise. They could even take that side window and turn it into a window/screen and get some good cross breezes.

      John Stromboly you are right. The business of fire is a problem in my country. The government is constantly trying to take measures to "improve" the forests. But the true is that there are people that lose their home and belongings just because certein business man put millions and millions of euros in their pockets. It is what it is. But I believe that this is going to change in a near future. The people have open their eyes. I hope to see on day to this channel in Portugal...

    I have respected ambulances my entire career. They pick up people in need and transport them for needed care. 100’s of new lives start out in those amazing big boxes, too! Bravo for a conversion well done! I’m so pleased to see that the Ambo has a second lease on life! Love 💕 it! 🚑❤️ 🚐 (I am a retired RN who is also building one too!)

  • @HankHill757
    @HankHill757 Před 6 lety +1

    Nice conversion! I drove one exactly like this, just with 2WD, as a medic in the city and they got absolutely dogged.....driven hard and only retired when they were pretty much non-repairable. And if I had one to convert first thing I would do is pull every surface apart on the inside and clean it about 10 times with soap, water and bleach to wash away years of blood and other body fluids that seep into very nook and crannie. The bodies are built to take the daily abuse they get and yours in an excellent example of how they can be re-purposed as an rv. Best bet is finding one from a small city or rural dept that has less miles and abuse, which is what yours looks like. Awesome work!

    • @bens9754
      @bens9754 Před 6 lety

      Retired ambulances from the richer/larger municipalities usually get sold off to the rural departments, particularly voly departments that don't have the funds to buy brand new ones. And then THEY run them until the thing totally dies. lol
      My city retires them around every 4 years, we have 4 ambos (city is 11 square miles) and basically buy a new one every year. Our old trucks get sold off, usually around 75-100k miles on them when we retire them. lol

  • @sherrih.2693
    @sherrih.2693 Před 5 lety

    The ambulance has incredible storage and electrical units already baked in. If you're creative, a great vehicle to work on as a camper. The bar at the top is for hanging fluids to give to patients as well as for balance as someone has already stated. The fact that it is used to rescue people is far better karma than to worry about who may have died.

  • @wildbill23c
    @wildbill23c Před 6 lety

    Great conversion. That ambulance has a ton of storage and looks like it didn't take much work for you to "convert" it. Great job. Far cheaper than an RV, travel trailer, etc.

      Madeline Figueroa-- That's what I'm screaming!! I've looked at so many options, & they've all been flat wall needing you to completely deck them out with cabinetry & all the whatnot. This thing comes practically *turnkey* and that is awesome! I love that, and how several cabinets double as interior AND exterior access is a definite plus. Now the rearmost cabinet with the spare tire would definitely be converted to have a toilet/ shower; even if it was just the freestanding closet style that I'd attach to the cube body itself,, cuz Daddy's GOTSTA shit n shower, bubba!!!

  • @harrisonvc9175
    @harrisonvc9175 Před 6 lety +5

    Let's say I bought an old Antonov AN-2 (very large single-engine Russian bi-plane, maybe the largest single engine biplane ever produced) would I be able to do this? There are so many airstrips around the U.S. and the Antonov is totally big enough to live out of. It's also super rugged so it's able to land basically anywhere, even on water with the pontoon attachments. Being a biplane it makes ALOT of lift so it doesn't need a lot of runway to take off and land so this thing is really just asking to be turned into a flying camper van :D

    • @DanSlotea
      @DanSlotea Před 6 lety +1

      Samson H do you have enough money for oil and gas? Maybe you don't realize how much of both a radial engine uses. Also the speed is not great so the "mileage" is really bad. Otherwise yeah, it would be an awesome camper. You can buy on as cheap as 5000 Euros.

    • @bens9754
      @bens9754 Před 6 lety

      Also need a pilot's license, which isn't the cheapest thing ever. And to not be bound by only day time/clear weather flying, you would need IFR certification, and to file IFR flight plans....in addition to everything Dan Slotea said.

    • @DanSlotea
      @DanSlotea Před 6 lety

      Ben S PPL is about 6000 Euros, but for AN-2 you need a licensed mechanic and a co-pilot. It's not an airplane to fly solo. VFR is enough for "camping".

    I worked as a medic to long on one of these so I don’t know if I could live in one knowing what I know however this is awesome. I took my first ride in one as a patient 6 weeks ago. I had a heart attack at 42 years old. Way to young. I guess being a first responder for 20 years took its toll on me. Love the build and love your style. Get out and live cause life is short. The walls of this ambulance know how short life can be so use that as a reminder to live. Also you should do an art project and hang it in there in honor of all who lost their life inside that thing. Honor them by living the best life you can. Hope that’s not to weird.

What’s the point of having things if you can rarely enjoy them?
