My Ideal Van for Van Life: The Ford Transit Connect XLT
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 08. 2024
- Join me on my journey to van life! In this video, I share my story of how I got my Ford Transit Connect XLT camper van and the steps I took to make my dream a reality. Living a minimalist lifestyle has always appealed to me, and after living in a big city for three years, I decided to pursue van life. I spent months researching different van options and worked hard to save up the money I needed. When I found the perfect van on Facebook marketplace, I was nervous about giving out my personal information and worried that it might be a scam. But after doing some research and consulting with my family, I took a chance and ended up with a beautiful van that I can't wait to convert into my new home. If you're interested in van life, watch this video to learn more about the process and what it takes to make your dream a reality.

Have you ever considered a more minimalist lifestyle and living in a van?
I considered a Connect but went with a used Toyota Sienna because it cost thousands less, the bed is a couple feet longer, and it’s a Toyota. Converted it to a mini camper and have been living in it for two years this June. (On the conservative side I have saved over $30,000.00 in rent.) I love the minimalist lifestyle too and will be buying and building out a big tall Transit van soon.
We are looking forward to a van build update.
While recovering from a work related accident i found myself with alot of spare time on my hand, a sizable settlement, and a PT regime that was simple enough i wasnt tied down to a specific clinic. So on a bit of a whim i took a dodge neon with a yakima rook rack and turned it into a one person(plus one dog) camper and drove it completely around the lower 48 (borders and coasts) the passenger seat was removed with a bed platform replacing it … I opted to discard the donut in favor of two full sized spares that fitted under the bed … the seat of rhe back couls be removed and replaced with a pole for a self supporting tent of multiple layers (bug, weather, insulating) for space outside the vehicle.
I never bothered with sinks showers toilets but instead relied on access to fresh water that i could then heat up and take rag baths, wash my few dishes, even hands wash and line dry most clothing plus learned how to use a bucket and bag toilet
Yes I have! Was looking forward to living out my grad school days in a transit connect!
@@joeblow1942how do you deal with summer/winter inside your sienna? I want to do the same but that question always stops me
The quality of your videos are insane. brilliant production and editing etc. you deserve thousands of subscribers
Hmmmm..This may be too late since it’s a 2 week old video and you said your Van and “Build” was $15,000..However, Before you go nuts building this thing out please understand a few things. I own a 2013 Connect and have put 50,000 miles on it. You have a under powered vehicle with a poor braking system. WEIGHT MATTERS! There is sticker on the driver’s side door jam that shows your Gross Vehicle Weight. Read it, do the math and understand it. Depending on the options - your van can carry 1400-1600 pounds. That sum, already includes you and a full tank of gas. Everything you put in there adds to that. So pay attention on your build because once it’s done, you will add stuff like camping gear, food, water, firewood, cloths, you name it all adding u to additional weight. I run around on cross country trips with near 900 lbs. of weight and it not only affects your ability to climb hills, use cruise control on less than flat roads (you can’t) and braking. As long as you don’t add a roof rack or anything else you will do OK in the wind but count on a lot of downshifting and going slow on mountain roads.
These vehicles are notorious for broken Motor mounts. Especially the one under you Coolant (degas) Bottle. There are 3 Mounts. The easiest way to tell if a mount is broken is the vibration when you first start it up and idle. Ford claims you do not need to change the transmission fluid for 120,000 miles. In fact, I had a dealer who would not change it at 60,000 until I said I was using the van under severe conditions as outlined in the manual. Do yourself a favor and buy a ($95) a new transmission pan from MAZDA - that’s right - Mazda. They use the same transmission in the van in numerous models only they have a Drain Plug in theirs. This way you can change the trans fluid how often you like especially again if you’re in the mountain west. While each build is done based on a person’s own taste, most of the stuff added is never used - like sinks. Solar panels only work if the sun is out or if you think every campsite has no trees overhead. Buy a portable battery instead. Even my small 250 Jackery runs my lights and fan (and can even jump start your engine battery) for 3 days. Good luck on your build - just wanted to share some advice.
Thank you for the advice! I’ll try to make it as light as possible for sure!
Or a buy amd install a $7 drain plug kit as I did.
@@taddmcmichael9061 Thank you for your indepth answer. Personally, I wouldn't want to live in anything smaller than a highroof, long wheelbase Sprinter-type. But I'm older and less flexible, lol.
I remember that giddy feeling when I rolled away from the dealer with my Transit Connect a few years ago. You're gonna have a blast in that van, I know it! Good luck on your build, Tyler!
How’s your transit connect going so far? How many miles? Do you recommend it?
99% of others will follow these steps and get scammed out of their minds. You got lucky.
Hahaha this is why I warn them to look out for scams 😂 finding out it was a dealership made me trust more.
@@SweetPotatoTyler Good luck on the build and the journey. I'm still in the research stage lol
Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm in the $saving and self-education stage, and everything you described when contacting the seller would have made me wary, too! Very glad it all worked out! 👍
Thank you! Exciting for you! Yes you can never be too careful I guess 😅
I think/feel like he got so lucky. Asking for a deposit over the phone before you've even done a test drive?! Very sketchy.
I have a 2012 transit connect. Did the same thing your doing. There’s far more room to make things nice than people might think. Good luck and have fun.😊
How’s your transit connect going so far? How many miles? Do you recommend it?
I'm looking forward to seeing what you create with your van. Good luck and have fun!
Thank you! 🙏
Hey I had a 2010 model as a service vehicle. I drove it 180,000 miles, often overloaded with cargo, until the co. replaced it with a full size van. Was still running perfect and was trouble free the whole time. They are good vans if they suit your needs..........
That’s awesome, I hope mine lasts that long and beyond!
Great intro into your New lifestyle,
Your research, your doubts and fears. Your IT skills are put to good use whilst editing videos.
Good luck, happy travels, new subscriber here. 👏🏾👏🏽👏👏
Welcome 😁 and thank you for subscribing! 🌱
This was a really nicely filmed, edited, and told video.. Thanks! I'm just a couple of minutes in, and really enjoying it.
Thanks a lot! I put a lot into these videos!
Your concerns were legitimate at the start... all seemed a little fishy ! Glad it worked out ok !
The Transit Connect is a great choice... super lil' van... :)
Thank you! And yes it is! 🚐
Yo I'm so excited for you bro! I love what you said about taking things one step at a time and not letting yourself get stressed out by the big picture.
Thanks bro. It’s the only way to go! ⚡️
Great video! I’m so happy for you! I miss you bro!
Aw thanks Demiss, miss you too man.
I’ve owned a 2012 transit connect for seven years now. I bought in 2017 and had 51,000 miles on it. Couple things you should be aware of, that model year has a bad reputation for transmissions, as I found out. At 71,000 miles I had to have the transmission replaced. Cost me about $4500 because they had to completely replace it. At just over 100,000 miles had to have the motor mounts replaced. Another $1100 bucks. Has 113,000 miles on it now, about 2500 of that was last year on a trip to Ohio and back to California. I’ve also replaced the water pump. I will replace the alternator soon, but I do that on all my vehicles at 100,000.
Does get excellent mileage. Got between 29 and 30 mpg if you keep your speed on the highway between 60 and 65 like I do.
There’s enough space for one person, I plan on keeping this for about three more years and if I’m still traveling plan on getting a bigger van may be a Chevy express. A lot more space for some equipment I like to carry.
So the transit connect is not worth it then? I was planning on buying one :(
This edit is sooo good man! Really great video. I'm thinking the same van for myself.
Thank you! Yeah it’s a great van, you should do it!
Dude! I am sooo envious right now! That's the kind of van I'm looking for as well, for my vanlife dream I'm planning. Congrats on your find! 👋
I’m sure you will find one! There’s a lot of them out there. Be patient for the right one to show up and don’t jump the gun and buy one you’re unsure of!
Douglas 2.0...😝 bro, so excited for you to have this as you were telling me about this
Thanks bro. Hahaha I wonder how Douglas is doing 🤔🧐
Greetings from rainy Seattle, WA! Congrats on this new adventure you're about to embark on... you won't regret a single bit of it 👍👍👍
Thank you, I can’t wait 😊 and greetings from Wisconsin, I’ll probably head to Washington once I’m done converting!
Hey man I’m in Seattle too, are you in the van life?
I wish they bring back those iconic vw bus vans! Would love to convert them.
I have a 2012 Transit Connect. It is perfect for a single person to do road trips with.
Btw, one simply upgrade I recommend is rain guards. Allows you to leave the windows cracked at night without having to worry about rain getting in or someone noticing.
You have the same one? Awesome 👏
I’ll have to consider rain guards, thanks for the tip 👍
@@SweetPotatoTylerHi Tyler, hows the transit connect going so far? Do you recommend it? Any complaints or major services you had to do? And last how many miles it had when you purchased it at $9,500?
How’s your transit connect going so far? Any complaints?
@@igorrosales1799 Still running. Just got back from a short road trip today in fact.
Only issue I've ever had with it was a weird electrical issue where the dash lights would start blinking and stuff. The issue got so bad that at one point I could turn the key to off and even remove it and the van would keep running for awhile.
As a temporary fix I would disconnect the battery for a few minutes. That reset the computer. It would then run fine for a few months before it started doing it again.
Several years back, however, I was digging around in the electrical box and I found a Garmin device the prior owner installed. It was a company device that allowed them to get emails and such. I removed that and the blinking lights never came back. So, I don't think there was ever anything really wrong with the van itself... the device was just dorking with the computer or something. I still installed a quick disconnect to the battery just in case it happens again on a road trip.
Good to see a video by you again. I've wanted to live in a tiny house for probably 6ish years now but it's illegal here and I can't move. So having to pay a mortgage for now and hopefully can sell my house one day and it'll pay for a tiny house that I can live in.
It’s illegal to live in a tiny house? What kind of law is that?
@@SweetPotatoTyler You would need to look at the zoning and building codes in your area. Most likely it wouldn't be legal to live in a tiny house full time at a permanent location. But if you were going to constantly travel like you could in your van, then you'd be okay. I just want to live small and not travel so I'd have to move out of NY state. PA has a couple of places and I know CA and CO are tiny house Mecca states in general.
@@SweetPotatoTyler You're not even allowed to build a house these days that's smaller than what the average house in the 1950s was. It's insane that we're basically legally obligated to be forced into a 30 year mortgage when there are people who want to live small for the environment and our bank account and it's not legally allowed. Makes no sense.
I don't know if you remember me but we used to work together at TJs hope all is well with ya. This video is so beautifully done beautiful production quality and topic. Can't wait for more videos Tyler even if I never see you again in person glad I had the pleasure of being a friend for a season.
Thank you! I can’t see your name so I don’t know who this is!
Nanyamka?
Great video, looking forward to watching your journey!
Thanks so much! New vid on Friday.
Excited for you dude. Best of luck Tyler 🤘
Thank you for the support bro, much love 💛
The video production is impressive can’t believe you don’t have 100k subs
Subscribed and will follow ur build. Just watched until your framing the walls, and eagerly waiting for the floor video to come out.
Congratulations on getting your van. Should be interesting to watch the build.
Thank you! Next episode coming soon!
Cute, I have a 2010 Transit Connect XLT that I built out for camping for me and my dog! I love my little clown car lol
Awesome! Love the clown car 😂🤡
So excited for this next step in your life and the many new adventures to accompany it🤗. Your talent and creativity is phenomenal🌾
Thank you so much!!
None of these are in nice condition in UK. They're al absolutely hammered by builders with ripped seats, dirt everywhere and the back is trashed. Yours looks in good condition!
That’s too bad 😢
Yeah I was surprised at how clean mine was when I first saw it!
I managed to get a mint one owner lwb with service history and only 120,000 miles on it. It's not as big as some of the vans I've converted but it's a cool little stealth camper. Love it
Wishing you the very best!
Congratulations and happy life!
Thank you! You too!
I'm currently converting my old ford transit connect from a construction van to a mobile streetwear shop on my CZcams all tips are appreciated !
Excellent cinematography, man. What kind of camera/equipment do you use?
Thank you! I use a Sony A7SIII mostly, and my drone is the DJI mini 2.
Ron is such a used car salesman name. 😂 Glad it all worked out!
Hahaha yes it is, RON! 😂
#vanlife #justgottalookatit #straightupnowtellme
This is gonna be the mintest project in the history of CZcams. No kappa!! Love you so much
🌿 hahahahaha I hope so 😂
It’s hilarious how can life is about living minimally and just enjoying the adventure, yet so many people get caught up in having a new 50,000$ pro master with top end appliances. Van life has its own “keeping up with the Jones’s” culture within the community which is ironic because that’s supposed to be what we are escaping. The van you picked is perfect though. Cheap enough not to have a 7 year car payment, wont break down constantly, and good gas mileage. Seems to be the most logical choice to me.
I totally agree with minimalism! Im buying a Ford Transit Connect myself soon. Im planning to be on the road with just the bare basics by May. Then, I will be traveling halfway across the country to fit it out with the help of a friend. I've been planning and budgeting for over a year! I wish you the best! Maybe we will cross paths someday?
How’s your transit connect going so far? How many miles? Do you recommend it?
Go for it sweet tater, it's like mark twain supposed to have said: "when your on your death bed your regrets will not be what you done in life, but what you didn't do.: Dig it?
Love it 🙌
Looking forward to seeing your Van Build videos. Thanks
Thank you! Just finished filming the next one.
Love your excitement. I have a honda right-hand drive. I love it. But may have to go bigger as my dog's 75 pounds now 😊
Gosh I wish I had your cool hair! Great video and van! I too, would be very weary of giving that information to anyone, even a dealer, over the phone, before seeing the van in person! Good luck! I'm still trying to decide which van to buy myself. Really want a full size cargo but they are all going above MSRP even used, with 100K miles here in FL!
Thank you! just keep doing some research and I'm sure you'll find the right one!
This was a great video! You just earned a subscriber for sure. I'm excited to watch the journey and see what you do with your build. I'm really drawn to the transit builds.😊
Thank you! I’m excited too! Next episode coming soon 😊
This was a RISK.
Random phone strange picking you up.
Cheque in hand with his name on it.
Consider have a friend take you the sellers location address and for safety purposes, if the Transit van was below standard and you choose to not purchase it, you have your ride home.
Glad this worked out for you and I truly wish this was your parent's advice.
Logic and reason win 99% of the time.
New subbie along for the ride from thr UK
Thanks for subbing! 😊
I've been road tripping for some time in a 2012 Honda CRV. Like you were, I'm also in the hunt for several items, a small, high roof van (I'm 6'1"tall) being one of them. Probably unlike you, however, I won't be installing a sink, shower, nor toilet. I've camped, portaged, hiked, etc. in many global locations and really just need a decent bed and cooking/food-related items. With all the driving you'll be doing, you might want to consider a good dash cam system, just saying. As you pointed out, have a grand plan but be open to revisions and don't get bogged down in the largess. Make an outline of the steps required and what's needed. As things go on sale or are found, cross them off your list which is also a feel-good when you see your plan coming to fruition. Life's an adventure, blow every day out and enjoy what others only talk and dream about. Carpe diem!
I am goaling for a ford low roof transit. I hope to make it into a pop top home. I looking forward to it
Awesome, so does that mean you'll cut a hole in the roof and add a top so you can stand?
@@SweetPotatoTyler correct. Was going for the same van as yours but too small. Those other vans you looked at would’ve suits my vision of a home on wheels but I worry about car accidents or getting stuck on dirt roads. Least these homes on wheels with pop tops makes the vehicle sort of compact. If any of this makes sense.
Anyways good luck out there
Honda odyssey is a great option even an older 2001 model,super reliable great mileage stealth,next level is one you can stand up in,I’ve driven me some pretty big trips in mine,one day I’ll get a tall van to stand in but for now my Honda works great and if you live in your van the point is to not live in it anyway you live outside it’s just there for protection sleep and travel
Same for me! eventually I may get a bigger van so i can actually stand up in it, but for now this little one will do!
I wish I had family to live with so I could have done this. It's hard to save and keep a roof over your head, but I'm finally fostering dogs so trade offs, and I'll live through CZcams.
The Volkswagen vans are not from the 80's, but actually the late 60's into early 70's. My parents owned one before I was born and lost it due to an illegal repossession by the dealership back in 1973. By the time the 80's came, those vans were discontinued because of safety related issues.
Ahh yes you’re totally right! They sure are beautiful, I wish I had one haha
Great editing, smooth narrative, good information……..new subscriber here! Looking forward to the build out. Good luck!
I'm buying a Ford Transit Connect myself very soon! Hope to be on the road full time by May!
Awesome! Exciting for you!
Thank you! I'm excited for you too! I posted again, but CZcams keeps freezing up on me? You'll see what I was finally able to write.
@@patrickcummins976 How’s your transit connect going so far? How many miles? Do you recommend it?
This is cool. Nice whole hearted video man. I can’t believe I’m already 34 and haven’t done this still. Been researching it for YEARS. I moved out to Arizona for a few years. Got a Ford Escape and did a lot of traveling sleeping in it car camping style. But def need something bigger. I’ve always wanted a Honda Element. They’re just so cool and novelty. But then I get down to the practicality aspect and I’ve been leaning towards the connect as well. More space, better mpg, easier to find parts… can custom build it more. Some drawbacks are no AWD. Hope to do this. Gotta find a way to make money on the road though.
Good choice , essentially a Ford Focus . Lots of parts available out there .....
Yes it’s a very common van so shouldn’t be hard to get parts if/when needed!
Seems to me you took a lot of chances, glad to see it worked out for you.
I’m doing my research to get one for my mini market that I’m gonna open soon
I inherited one from my late Stepmom .
The reason the seller sent a driver 90 minutes was so you couldn’t leave. He could stall you and use his sales techniques longer.

Do I understand that from 2019 onwards, you remotely deposit 1K to a dealership, without trying out the car, let alone negotiating the price, and risk to lose your deposit if you get to the car, try it out and don't like it ?
Plus Ron doesn't drive your butt back home 90 minutes away. So you hitchike ?
BTW, the other video I've watched is the Gutting the Van one.
Fantastic ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
You totally rock young man.
A pretty good video 👌
No, that was not a typical transaction at all. They don't need all that information if you're paying cash. He asked for all the info needed to finance a car (loan). He could have dinged your credit by running a loan application, too. And giving you a ride was a way to put way more pressure on you to drive home in the van. Lucky it worked out but not really OK. Probably would have charged your card for the ride if you didn't buy.
sub'd to see what you come up with! good luck with the build. I too bought the old style connect. Van was 5K at auction, already 15K in with all the sporting accessories and beginning parts. Gas heater and install was 3.5K, I didn't have the skills to do that. Still haven't really gotten to the build yet, just some beginning steps, waiting until it warms up in the NE. Not expecting to spend a ton more from this point.
Thanks for the sub! Sounds like you got a good deal on it! I'm waiting for it to warm up too, I've been working on the build in the freezing cold and it is not fun! haha
Thanks for sharing! I'm looking to buy a 2012 ford transit connect. It has about 83,000 miles but it's been in a minor accident according to CarFax. They're asking $14,995. Is that a good deal?
Absolutely not....ok let me clarify. These vans are overpriced on the secondary market and it is do to this type of driven demand. A vehicle designed as a delivery vehicle with a 4 cylinder with very little bells and whistles that retailed when new for $23K and 10-11 yrs later is at $15K is just not normal depreciation. I will now say that I am part of that problem after having bought a 2010 (138K miles for $10,500) and 2011 (66K miles for $9500) in the last year. So being honest I would try make an offer for less and try and shave off a couple grand. Things to look for and to possibly help drive price down. They are prone to develop rust in the rear parts of the rocker panel so look for Bondo repairs if it is not visible as it has undoubtedly started and been repaired. Two, if it seems rough with vibration through steering wheel it needs motor mounts (common). Three, have someone pull the spark plug/coil pack wires and look for oil on the bottom of the boots as the valve cover gaskets leak as they get older. All easy fixes but can help with price negotiation. That being said if it is your dream then putting a particular price barrier up is not a big deal as the only thing you can not recover is the time wasted.
@@taddmcmichael9061 Thank you so much!❤❤❤
@@judylowe2688 $15,000 does seem a bit high, I would definitely try to get the price down! Especially if it has some damage.
Depending on your state (you'll have to check this with your DMV) often a car that has been in an accident becomes "re-titled". Again, depending upon the state that car might be re-titled as a "rebuilt" instead of a "clear" title. What matters is that your current car insurance company may not cover a car with a "rebuilt" title or only offer liability coverage. Again, this is very dependent upon the state but its worth checking out before you buy.
@@taddmcmichael9061how much would you say it’s a fair price then?
loved your story and was wondering if you had other social media I can follow you on? IG, perhaps? I'm starting to get into this lifestyle myself..... oh and great hair btw
Thank you so much! Yeah all my socials are in the description!
I would have gotten someone to drive me there, to look at the car, and all that, because I wouldn't be able to trust that process at all..
I can understand why you were uncertain, it sounded so dodgy, but luckily it wasn't in your case. 😅
How the heck did you hop thru the middle of the van like that? ❤ 😂
Just watching this video screams STRANGER DANGER! Did you do a a title search on it? Did you have it inspected my a reputably mechanic? Video should be re title "WHAT NOT TO DO WHEN BUYING A VAN!" THIS IS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE! I hope it all worked out for you.......
Nice!
Smart man lovely person
I JUST HAD TO STOP THIS THREE MIN in ,,, IT IS THE DAY AFTER XMAS and I DID the same exact thing, but mine is a 2017 black on black on black, shes one sexy lil buggy,,, IM SO EXCITED> ok, pushes play, lets see your left brain shine
Ok, how did you get the name "sweet potato?"
Because I love Sweet Potatoes 🍠 😂
Never!!! Give your personal information on the phone.
I bought one of those vans. My help let me down. I’ve got rid of it. It was a 2012 also. Disappointment
how was it buying one with 130,000 miles? do they hold up well?
Seems to run perfect so far, I guess we'll find out :P
Whats the mpg?_
Can I ask how many miles were on your van when you bought it?
Have the same question!
You are really lucky.
I think the retro van that you love the look of are actually the 70s models. The 80s versions are not nearly as cool looking.
Was the extra $900 for tax title or what?
Yeah just for the title, tax, and other fees.

What kind of issues?
@@SweetPotatoTylerdid you have any issues with the van so far?
No, I don't have a freaking clue. Why would a grown man would be so lame?? I worked for Land Rover for 10 years, and it's a thing! Relax a car dealer wants to sell you a car.

I freaking love my little tin can van! I have a 2010 XLT. Happy building. 💛 @tincanrollerskatevan
Awesome! And thank you 🙏
