    I've seen a crapload of these van build videos and this is the first one where I'd ask for it by name...minus a few color changes. Spot on. That garage is hands down the best garage I've ever seen. 😁👍

    Great build for taking bikes! Love the garage area. Only things I'd change is where the sink is have it a bit more shallow or put the faucet do can swing around to the outside...and a curtain or removable panel to block front off from the back. Like the fact that you can take passagners with you buckled in too! Great build. Thanks for sharing!

    Agree with everyone, van is set up is amazing. This set up would be exactly what I would want to do as I have road bikes, Mountain bikes and so on. Only difference would be a dedicated stove set up with a cover. That way you don’t lose counter space and you don’t have to take it out each time. Well done!

Love the fact that he took the time to figure out what worked in his first build and what didn't and then incorporated it into his next build. My two favorite features are the fridge/garage and bed/garage.

  • @ultradaves
    @ultradaves Před 8 měsíci +1

    I have had 3 Ford Transit vans and use it with my family for camping, for family road trips. Van has been great, but the seats are from hunger. Not comfortable for long trips. No bolstering, no thigh support, and poorly padded. I have no idea why Ford does not offer quality seats for a commercial van. F series trucks can be fitted with great seats, why not a van? I noticed you did not upgrade your seats (just put them on swivels). I looked into upgrading 8 seats in my van and putting in tracks, and it was prohibitively expensive, north of $25k. Basically, convinced me that the Sprinter is a superior product, given that you can get great OEM seats.
