I did a recent video on my channel and I think your aerial is the weak link. I used puck versions but was recommended the cheap Bingfu twin aerials and found them so much better. Well worth a try as they're under £15

The new mini dish from Elon is now being permanently fixed to motor home roofs in USA. What confuses me in doing this. The dish has to be set up facing north. So if its permanently fixed would you always have to position the vehicle facing North.

I've always been on O2. Still free 25G internet roaming across EU plus unlimited phone calls and texts. 100 GB of free internet in UK plus unlimited texts & calls to mobiles and landlines. No extra costs for example when someone calls me from UK while I'm in France or visa versa. Great coverage almost everywhere. Costs total £25 per month with zero extra costs. I spend the majority of my time in mountain regions or wild forests, living full time in my 4WD SAV.

A useful video thank you. I am thinking of getting a net gear nighthawk m1 or m6 on o2 or ee. My need is to increase my upload speeds for streaming to UA-cam or zoom meetings I also want to pickup the unit and take it in my van to use on the road. So I. Two places basically Can you give me some ideas of average upload speeds you unit or indeed your friends units can get .thank you in advance .best wishes Paul Ps get that van tour video done lol.

Hi there! Do you have a video of your bed install? I have found everything but that and I'd love to see how you built it😊Thanks!

I really enjoy your videos! I think it is absolutely precious that your mama and dad helped you so much with it! I am sure you know how very blessed you are to have them right bedside you! ❤

Love it! I might do mines like this. 😅

Just about to start my first van build. This has been a great help 👍

Your mom is a real trooper

Great video Jodie! Gosh that looks so tough... It looks amazing (in video and in person!) xx

I've had van conversions with and without bulkheads, pros & cons for both setups. As we're all fickle humans, and sometimes change it good. From having a bulkhead to no bulkhead. That said, I certainly laughed at your entrance from said front of vehicle to rear via your "hatch" ;)

You could have lowered the hatch and built the shelfs higher.Im converting a cargo trailer into a camper.I spent 4 yrs building mobile homes and cargo trailers

Morning from Hawaii that was a good video on building a campervan bulkhead on this video

Love it 😀, you've used the space really well and thought of everything 👌😎

I have just brought a combo I’m so excited to convert it ❤

Hi! I’ve just bought a combo long wheel base and looking for ideas, thank you for the video! Please could you let me know the dimensions for the wood you have used as a sofa and pull out bed? Thank you!

Nice job 👍

Hi ! What is the size of the bed ? Thanks

To get a good join.over lap the carpet then cut through both .its best and most easy way.

Morning from Hawaii good van life on this video

Impressive, I'm sure Taylor will be happy 😊 👌Yolo🎉

It does what it says on the tin. A normal daily car and somewhere to put your head down when you want. I imagine the new van is more camper and less car.

Just a thanks for your van bits list website!

Hey jody it's me eden good luck!❤love u

I picked mine up yesterday, I love it !!!

I'm currently converting my Promaster with my dad so I kNOW all the work, time, and expenses that goes into this, and you and your parents did such a BRILLIANT job!!! It looks SO GOOD!! Your videos are motivating me to carry on, thank you❣

If you haven't already, Check out Ireland's (WAW) Wild Atlantic Way.. It's beautiful & it's suprising the longest scenic coastal road trip in the world. If you are going to do it start up in Co Donegal & travel right along the West coast visiting the many places all the way down to the bottom of the island in Co Cork. It's an adventure 🚐..💨

I love this idea & I'm going to have a go at it. Thank you 😊

Just subscribed. Fully agree with you… live your life the way you want and ignore the haters.

Those panels are mint! Thanks for content 👍

Duh, just typed a whole long question asking whether you've had yours weighed yet and then seen the reply below. We just had ours weighed last weekend - 3240kg fully loaded, but we still have the shower room to finish (just the top layer, plumbing and toilet cupboard to go) and some drawers and a few other things, so we'll need to be careful. ps. We were on a neighbouring pitch to you at Quirky last year 👋🏻...

Thank you so much, I did one door so far and I love it, i'm excited about he other two doors, I love your family your all brilliant, again hank you.

If there's 2 people in here I get a bit😂

Great vLog, I need to make a hold-er-upper to do my roof soon. Have you weighed the van recently?

This actually works, and the offset scissors are indeed a great tip.

Easier and quicker to just over lap one end 2 or 3 cm and tuck it over itself for a nice finish then gluing them together and cutting on the outside.

love this - agree 100%. sending you much support from Arizona

Well done. What have you put underneath your vinyl floor? Have you ply of some sort on top of insulation?

Hey everyone, lots of people keep asking for the link for the rubber trim - annoyingly it keeps jumping around different URLs on ebay, but I'll try to keep it up to date as much as I can. I've also started building a webpage for every single item I've used in the entire build, which you can check out here - vanventureswithjodie.notion.site/fdfef29580254c6892f2664151ff9011?v=8e6916db2b564504986000750703b072

A great video to see what it's actually like fitting one of these. I have one to fit too and now I know what I have to look forward too! :D Ignore the haters, they just love the internet and thank goodness for nice helpful people.

I like to make sure that the exhaust points outside the bodywork of the van. There are a lot of weep holes in the bottom edges of the body that let water out and air in. You don't want the exhaust gases to find their way into those.

I tested silicone and cyanoacrylate on one of the cutouts from my windows. No cleaning no sanding: Silicone peeled of rather easily, superglue left a thing film of rubber. Cleaned panel: Silicone tore before the rubber, superglue same as before. Cleaned and sanded surface: Silicone tore again before the rubber, superglue same as before. Superglue every time, much easier and faster to apply. I used black cyanoacrylate with rubber content from Amazon.

Wow that look's so good! Very impressive. Do you have a link for the rubber from Ebay. Hope to hear from you

Hi Jodie, I've just found your channel and love the quality of your conversion. I've recently started converting a Boxer and was impressed with the rubber channel you used to finish the carpet edges, unfortunately the link you left on the video doesn't work. I looked on eBay and there are loads! Are you able to send another link? Good luck on your travels, cheers Baz.

This has made me feel much better about volunteering Glasto solo for this first time this year, looks like you had a blast

I don’t think it’s got anything to do with gender - you’d have received that note regardless of your gender - that’s the way some people are - they mistakenly extend their feelings of entitlement or residence to publicly maintained roads and footpaths. Legally parked is legally parked. We agree that everyone should park considerately - whether a van live-aboarder or a resident living on a street or road. We encounter house owners who don’t like us mooring on the public towpath opposite their home - but they have zero right to have us moved on. These are just petty people who want the world to revolve around them. Life’s not like that.

Lovely video, really useful ideas and your Mum and Dad did a great job with your design. P.S. Your Mum is so elegant!

Hi Jodie Enjoy your vids. Bit surprised you've made one about your "right" to live (park up) wherever you like. As a fellow campervaner I have a couple of questions for you. In the residential areas where you are living, who is paying for the following? Maintaing the road, verges, streetlights, drains, trees and hedges. Treating and disposing of the water for drinking, washing. Treating toilet waste. Collecting and disposing of rubbish (litter bins, local tip). Dealing with antisocial behaviour issues (not van life related). Answer:- It's the local residents through their council taxes. Are you contributing to these services you are benefiting from? What would happen if lots more people took up van life and did the same thing? Can you understand why local residents might not be happy about that (other than being small minded nimbys)? Good luck and keep making the vids.

I don’t think there’s a such thing as stealth. People are going to notice when you live in a vehicle. I think it’s just important to not be nuisance to other people and there’s usually not a problem.

There are vans and 7.5 tonne lorry camper conversions down the road from me and there have also been a couple of women living in a van outside of my flat. Some of the camper conversions look pretty decent. They cause neither myself nor anyone else anything that could even be deemed as reasonably close to "bother" so carry on as you are, ignoring the NIMBYs.
