- Опубліковано 25 сер 2023
- In today’s video, we feature Tony and his 2020 ram pro master, 2500 159 inch wheelbase custom camper van. This is one of the most cozy, prepper style van conversions I have ever toured. It maintains cozy vibes on the interior and is relatively stealth on the exterior. Since filming this video he has decided to sell it and build another one below is the details in the listing.

This is a custom van with the most unique open floor plan. With over 25 square feet of open space, two people can freely move about without bumping into each other, yet little sacrifice was made in storage and counter space.
The efficient and beautiful rustic modern design of this van truly welcomes you into a warm and functional space. The sofa’s back support can be adjusted to any degree and can be transformed into a solo recliner, an L shape couch, or into a 50”x72” bed with 6” thick medium density foam mattress. Two tables are included, a round 18” and a rectangular 19”x29” with 2 Lagun mounting locations for chillin or dining.
This van is as much about space as it is about lighting. There are over forty dimmable warm and RGB LED lights with more than 10 different zones and over a dozen USB outlets throughout.
The clever storage design houses all the INCLUDED cookware, pots, dining and plastic ware, toaster, kettle, blender, and much more! Underneath the finished floor is an incredible 4’ x 8’ x 2 and 7/8” of cargo space for transportation of wood, drywall, art or to be stuffed with pink foam during winter providing over 3” of thermal insulation.
A build of absolute simplicity yet there is so much to see in this open space floor plan filled with practical surprises and organic beauty. There are over a dozen framed prints covering the walls, comfy cushions through out and silk plants making this casual & beautiful decor really feel like a small home. This is truly a One of a kind!

I am a former Product Planner for General Motors Prestige Luxury vehicles as well as for Lexus. This is far and away the most meticulously designed van I have ever seen. Your use of space, consideration of the use cases, layout, and most of all - the deliberate and careful preservation of enough room to feel like you are not cramped is absolute genius, sir. (Nobody else does the latter). Truly, if I owned a luxury van production company, I would hire you on the spot to develop and produce premium custom vans. This winter I am building my first van in a Toyota fiberglas Sunrader and I have saved your video to blatantly plagiarize literally dozens of design details. Bravo!
Thank you so much. I am humbled and honored by your comments!
I have to say you had some really nice Builds on here; but this one is the best I've seen overall.❤
I do not have your credentials, but I 100% agree with everything you stated about his thoughtfully purposeful design.
@@tigre1suPlease, start documenting your life adventure and design, here on UA-cam.
We are also starting our first this winter. A Promaster 3500 159 ext. Good luck on your build!
I was an interior yacht carpenter for 20 years mainly with varnished hardwoods, but this is beyond the usual van build. This rivals some the finest modern interiors on very expensive yachts .
I appreciate the feedback. Thank you very much.
Im honored by your comment. Thank you
Dude, it’s crazy how he’s manage to create so much useable open space in such a “small” van. By far the best utilitarian build I’ve ever seen. This guy killed this build.
That's awesome Vinny, thank you so much!
But, IMO, he left off the most important item. Air conditioner.
J'ai déjà imaginé tout ça. Je pensais être la seule 😅😅😅
@@tigre1suYes, truly well thought out here for the layout, function, decor, lighting. If I were a professional van builder I would love to have this mind and the eyes to pay attention to everything.
AMAZING! The detail is off the charts. I usually fast forward through van tours because people show drawers opening, etc. But this one!!! I watched every second and will be watching it again. It is not a surprise he does shout-outs to George @HumbleRoad as he also is a master of detail. Love all the lighting details and the use of magnets. EVERYTHING is so well thought out. BRAVO!!!
Thank you thank you. Im glad I can be of inspiration as George @HumbleRoad inspired me.
Right! I don't even understand the need to show all of the above. But my patience was present when looking at this video. As everything about his words, expression and explanation confirms that what he says is worth listening to. Even if your interest don't lie in copying what he's done/how he thinks, etc.
I'm guilty for watching more than once.
Ì know...me toò...always fast forward....but this one kept rewinding!!!
Straight to the action ❤
Kept waiting for Tony to say "Welcome to Fantasy Island!"
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!! Made my day
That's funny❤😂😂😂
It clearly goes without saying that this man, in my opinion has the most absolute attention to detail that I have ever seen in all the videos I’ve watched. Believe me “I have viewed hundreds”. I would love to pick his brain. I am looking to purchase and building my van very soon and he is a major inspiration to me. To bad I cannot afford the well maintained and detailed van that he is selling but I am grateful to have had the opportunity to get better clarity on how to focus on and get what I need for mine. Thank you sir.
Thank you! Im truly lost for words.
110% agree with you...
Wow he’s got 11 gallons of water svd a water heater avd a water filter. Thats nice. I love it.
I’m one who is big on having light every area and touch lights etc.
Oh no! No AC! Nope it’s got to have AC! I’m in Texas. Anyplace you go in Texas to camp, must have AC. He said you can put it in.
This is probably the best build I’ve seen. I hope he also starts tackling tiny homes because he thought of so many practical, functional, intuitive ways to make everything fit and work.
Wow, thanks
Amazing build! I see this was posted 6 months ago but just looked at the video for the first time. Are you full time? Are you a wilderness guy or urban traveler?
Yes..he's unreal!!!
I've watched countless vans, buses, boats, tiny homes, and whatever conversions, and this is by far the most impressive I've ever seen. The attention to detail, the finish, and its presentation are fantastic. When you punt for a shower in a van, it almost always ends up looking cramped and feeling claustrophobic. You've managed to keep a good-sized floor plan here. Kudos to you!
Thank you very much!
The interior feels like the a private jet, at times like a yatch or a luxury hotel room. For him light is more than just functional it's part of the design. He is a designer for sure. And it's so cozy I would never leave! 😍
Appreciate the support
Patrick, this is by far your best tour EVER! This build is WONDERFUL!! I'm sure it's way over my budget, but I'd love to have it! Thank you so much for the tour. He is truly brilliant. ❤️
By far the best van build I’ve seen so far. So much attention to convenience and comfort as well as access to wiring etc., gorgeous!
Wow, thanks!
It's one of the most cozy vans I've ever seen. I could easily live in this van and still feel as though I've given up nothing in terms of comfort and the feeling of being at home. Just beautiful!!
Appreciate the feedback
That's awesome!!!! Thanks you so much, that's exactly how I feel when I'm in it
I have watched this guy show his van 9 times. I can't get enough! When it comes to the best of the best, This is it! I would love this for me a female! But I am disabled and this would only be my fantasy! I love how he paid so much attention to details! If I had the money, I would ask him to build me a van! I can walk and drive. I had a stroke which caused me to be disabled. I watch a lot of van life. I enjoy watching but there is only a few I would want to build my van.
This man is at the top of the list!
BEAUTIFUL! JUST BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you. God bless and good luck to you!
Can you link any other videos? This one had too much close up, not enough roomy views. Thanks
🤯Mind blowing and jaw dropping! The design and attention to detail are unparalleled! Before he mentioned it, the "behind the scenes/panels" reminded me of Humble Road; however, the unique design and finishings elevate this van to the nth degree. Tony is extremely gifted and talented; RV manufacturers could learn so much from him. Can't wait to see what Tony creates next. Thanks, Patrick, your tours are the best on UA-cam!
Wow! Thank you for your comment. Once again I'm honored for such incredibly positive feed back.
Sir, your van build looks like a 5 star luxury hotel space. The well thought out angles are brilliant, and the various light fixtures are beautiful. I want to hire you as my builder.
Thank you so much @@tracytaylor9914
Agree. This should win the van conversion award 🏆
This is the BEST van build I have ever seen! I love it! You can tell that attention to detail really matters. Awesome job and thank you for sharing this with us.
As everyone else has commented, this is phenomenal. The art and lighting and furnishings create the atmosphere of a cozy retreat. If I had this van, I'm not sure anyone would ever see me again! I'd head out and never return! Wonderful job. Tony is incredibly talented and thoughtful in his design and execution.
This is probably the best van build I have ever seen. The use of space and attention to detail is wonderful! I especially love the lounge. It is the roomiest looking van I have ever seen.
Wow, thank you!
This van actually feels like a home and not a gimmick
It does
Well after years of planning in my head and watching videos, I have now seen my favorite van yet.
Alright 👍
Every bit of space utilized-love it! Fantastic build! Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
I can’t possibly add anything else to what others have already said except that I think that you need a lady companion to help test the van out!!!
This man is an absolute genius. I have never seen that much creativity in a vehicle before. No understatement! He is amazing.👍👏👏😃 Quite unique with plenty of storage. Love everything, kitchen area roomy, various storage areas, bedroom ,couch,table manoeuvering and the bathroom area. Clever shower.
Couldn't agree more!
Thank you Margaret, made my day! 🤩
Incredible. Big RV builders can’t even compare to this kind of ingenuity and quality on any level. Bravo! Keep designing and building. ❤️
Thanks for the feedback. Please consider following the channel for more awesome van tours.
Thank you so so much!!!
Oh my! This must be the epitome of custom quality. I hope George sees it and is proud of the inspiration he provided. The only thing I would add is a mini split AC. It’s absolutely ingenious and gorgeous, and I particularly love the space used for artwork. Bravo! My compliments to the creator.🙏🏻
Thank you so much! I agree with you and will follow your advise
@@tigre1su I will be waiting to see your next creations. Amazing in details unseen indeed, sir.
In my recent promaster 2500 build early this year, my first priority was AC. I didn't want a roof unit. I didn't want a house window unit. I found a AC on wheels at Loews for $350 and it fits perfectly between the 2 front seats and I changed the vent from stock plastic to 6" aluminum and the vent flange was cut to go out passenger window and I roll the window up to lock in place. Has remote control and no need to drain every day. I drain maybe twice a month. I can't believe this guy did all this in this magnificent van and didn't have an air conditioner or a FREEZER. Just a fridge.
I love this. While inside, you could forget you're in a van. It has no signs of being uncomfortable or tight. I would live in this permanently and travel everywhere it would go. This is such a piece of art. Not just a van but a home. The person who buys this will definitely enjoy it.
From one obsessive, detail oriented person to another - Sir, I salute you! 🫡.
As always Patrick, thanks for scouting and filming unique vehicles on the East Coast. ( Love your many times over great ancestor’s paintings! 😜)
And I salute you back and thank you for your kind comment! We are lucky to have Patrick producing his amazing van tours and keeping us all informed and motivated.
I love that he was able to create something this amazing and still keep the electrical system simple.
Impressive
Gosh this is sweet!! Well thought out, roomy, cozy, tons of storage - exceptional job. Thank you for sharing!
This gentleman is a genius at designing and layout. He made a great point that resonated with me regarding the "feel" of openness. If I could afford to buy this incredible creation I would without hesitation.
Well said!
I do love that seating arrangement in this build. I would myself, consider purchasing a high top. I reckon a hydraulic bed would be an amazing addition if at all possible. I have seen the hydraulic setup in a couple of other van builds. That way the lounge remains as is, whilst the bed can be lowered. But in saying that. This is an outstanding achievement on your part. Something I would be proud to live in.
That's a great idea!
This has got to be one of my favorite vans. Your detail, thoughtful use of space, and art display is amazing. A beautiful home on wheels. Bravo!!!
This gentleman was born to do this!!!! Awesome job
I totally agree with you
Hands down the best build I have ever seen ❤
Glad you enjoyed it
What an incredible fit out. He is a brilliant designer - a true designer - stylish, ultra functional & practical for van lifers. Can't wait to see his next build. Excellent camper van 🤩
Thank you!!!
Your van is incredible! I could even live in a van like yours. Big bed, toilet, shower, cooking facilities and even a TV! Brilliant! Well done!
Thanks so much!
I must have watched, more or less every van life video and rv video on UA-cam and this van is Incredible !!!!
So awesome
You are a genius on so many levels, you hit room to move around, use of every nick and cranny, security, future repairs and maintenances and having all the convivences of home...I have seen many over the past 10 years and this is by far, the best build I have ever seen!
Oh wow thank you very much for that
I've looked at hundreds of vans and this is by far the best build i have ever seen.
Great to hear Harold
I've been doing my research for over 2yrs now and just when I think I've got my plan ready to go... another full-timer/builder being more ingenious and simple solutions that you'd never seen before. Solutions that you didn't know you needed but now you do! Great videos, comprehensive walk through... thanks heaps for sharing! Top job 5/5⭐s
Go for it
Truly , one of the nicest vans ever!
Simply AMAZING YaLL
Holy cow this is the nicest van... And smartest build I've ever seen... I'm with him on having space for people and I would actually give up the room cuz I'm such a minimalist for storage that whatever a van would offer I would be happy to have less things but more space so I like the space idea and I love the van that he did and it's very polished and perfected nice job!!!
Thank you! Im a minimalist as well so for me, less is more. "Room for experiences and memories, not stuff".
This has got to be not only the most wonderfully designed and crafted van but also a perfect layout. It’s wonderful.
Im so grateful for your comment. THANK YOU!!!
That first glance at the inside was breathtaking.
Awesome 😎
I'm glad he mentioned George of Humble Road for his inspiration. I noticed that in the beginning when he showed the access panels with magnets.
Wow, what an elegant and comfortable build.
Glad you like it!
I loved the shower idea. The temps I'll be driving in definitely need the flooring space for radiant heating, but the rest of it was super neat. The couch was cool. Magnets, so many lights, a quick charge, and a removable sink... what? Great build!
The front seat removal opens up more space, a good feel. 😊😊
Yes it does!
Wow!! Doesn't seem like you're in a van, but just a regular house. Love everything about it. Wonderful job this man did with this build.
I love the way he designed this van for solo travel. You can't defeat a person that enjoys their own company. Well done Sir
We agree!
Wow!!! This is the best build I’ve ever seen.
Happy to hear that April
Best build hands down that I've seen so far very very good use of space EVERYWHERE. People who get to do this are so freaking lucky
As he described each meticulous detail, I kept being reminded of Humble Road. It comes as no surprise that he's a student of George. The student has definitely become a master. Incredible.
Hahaha!!! Beautiful. I've actually been blessed by having the chance to meet George and fiddle around his shop, yet I have a very very long way to go before I can wear his hat!
I admire the details and dedication to function. The only exception is the shower. Imagine those curtains are wet; bundling them up and putting them toward the wall might lead to mildew very quickly.
I can definitely see the influence of George of Humble Roads but I did not see George’s extraordinary taste in materials, including the matched grain cabinets and so on. Maybe it’s there or maybe that wasn’t a priority.
Is he a genius or a madman? Who cares. The result is simply amazing! I can’t even imagine how he planned this out. Peace - John
Hahahaha! Just a madman with passion for design and detail. Thanks John
This is by far the most practical and beautiful van conversion I have seen, absolutely brilliant.
Thank you very much for the feedback
Wow, so much attention to detail to suit his needs. The vibe there is very homey.
Thanks for the feedback Bob. Please consider following the channel for more awesome van tours.
What a good design just like inside a luxury space ship
It totally is
The absolute best build I've seen! Everything was thought out and implemented to be convenient to the user. Plenty of lighting, seating, storage. I love it! Bravo!
Wow, thanks!
Thank you
One day I'd like to design and build my own camper when I get older. This is too good, I wish I could make something as good as this one day
All the major RV companies are probably wanting to hire this guy after the release of this video. The attention to detail is incredible on this build. I would definitely want him building my van.
Thank you so much for your positive feed back.
This is outstanding; I absolutely love it!! The details are perfection, right down to the little lamp on the table ❤️
Thank you so much!
This is nicer than most homes. I love the thought that went into the lighting
Appreciate the feedback
🤩
Wow! Really nice. Totally pimped out. 😂
Wow, this build is amazing. He used every ounce of storage which keeps is so open.
Glad you like it!
I love the design of this van. Love where the table is so you can sit like a couch w/o reconfiguring the table. Love the angled cabinets
Glad you like it!
Wow, this is next level. Very talented designer. Love his use of lighting. It looks like you’re camping in a luxury hotel.
Wow, thank you!
The best van build I’ve ever seen
That means a lot to me! Thank you.
Fantastic! You should continue on it is your gift! 💝
Thank you so much! You can bet I will
Extremely excited to see what the future holds for him. This van is perfection. Thank you Patrick for showcasing this masterpiece. I would purchase it immediately if I had the financial means.
Thank you. God bless.
"I need to create I need to build". Yes sir, you do. Please continue building this is amazing.
Thanks, will do!
😃
I understand that creative urge. I fixed up old houses for me, then sold them and started a new one. Ditto designing quilts.
Don't have the energy anymore, but still design all the time, my projects are smaller!
This is such an amazing build.
Thanks for sharing!!
It’s a masterpiece!
THANK YOU so much John!!!!!!! You're too kind.
No words except brilliantly genius.
Thanks Marie
Thanks Patrick for bringing this guy and his van to our attention. It’s great and so cozy and comfortable. Kudos!
Great ideas for camper conversion!
This is unbelievable
Storage and details designed to beyond perfections and optimal functionality
He is brilliant!!!!
We agree!
Thank you Anne
Incredibly well thought out design. Much to like, I would most enjoy the chaise lounge feature, and the bed to seating conversion - nice thick cushions for comfort.
Love it!! Everything is so nice, neat, clean and organized 👏👏👏 I want one just like this !
What a amazing build! Absolutely stunning and so very homey and comfortable looking. Congratulations on such a beautiful home on wheels!
Thank you so much!
This thing is beautiful and 1000% functional! Things I've never seen before that make so much sense!!
Glad you like it Kimberly
This is the best van build I have ever seen. 1st time I have thought, that's IT! I want one!
Glad you like it!
Basicly this man BRING THE APARTMENT to the car...😮😮😮 incredible
Amazing van; even the clamp holding the lamp on the table. Thanks Patrick for the video.
You bet
Wow, this has to be the best design and layout I have ever seen.
Wow, thanks!
Wow! This is marvellous. What a fantastic van.
Thanks for the feedback. Please consider following the channel for more awesome van tours.
This may be the 'best' build EVER!! Very detailed!!!
I'm honored by your feed back. Thank you!
Absolutely awesome! Even a shower! Best use of space I think I’ve seen yet! Love all the little touches too. The lights on wall like light sconces are so homey.
Oh Wow! Absolutely beautiful! The timer on the light! Fabulous idea! He put in a lot of clever genius ideas!
The lighting alone is spectacular. So cozy.
But that shower is ingenious!
Super impressed
Absolutly different and stylish, magnificent creation. Very very nice.
Thank you! Cheers!
STUNNING!
BEST OF THE BEST VAN BUILDS! OFF THE CHARTS!
We agree!
It’s a long, long time since I’ve been so impressed with a van. ❤😎🐕🇦🇺
Glad to hear that
Genius layout on the kitchen! It actually made me realize I have been designing a van layout for two, but a kitchen that is tailored only for one person!
Go for it!
I've been watching class B videos for years & this is the most spectacular build I have ever seen. I have a Winnebago Travato and this build makes my van look like a 2 year old designed it. I think he could make big bucks working for any conversion company just as a designer. Wow -- I am blown away by this van!! Wish I was rich. I'd buy this in a heartbeat!
Thank you. Your kind and honest words mean so much to me!
Extremely impressive. Covers all the bases, except passengers. Amazing! Well done, sir. Thank you Patrick!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is the smartest, most creative gorgeous van build I have seen. Just amazing ! I love the idea of space and angles. Bravo
Wow, thank you!
I've watched hundreds of build videos and have built out a couple of vans myself and I believe this design is exception in it's use of space and utility. I can't wait to see what he does next. Very talented. Love so much the independent components like sink and use of power generator. Also love the raised floor for wood, chair, table storage, no less floor angle for fishing pole. Crazy good designer.
Incredible design! I am blown away and my jaw kept dropping with each new feature shown! WOW! Love too his many references to my favorite builder, George...but I think this is even more impressive than anything I've ever seen from Humble Road too.
Immediately after shooting this, I contacted George and now Tony is working at Humble Road.
Thank you Linda. George and I have very different approaches and markets, I build out of wood, George uses 80/20 aluminum. His builds are massive in power because his clients lifestyles require many compromises to the build. When you have the freedom to build whatever you want (and you happen to be a minimalistic OCD designer like me), then the outcome is very different. One thing that I'm not, is the master craftsman that George is.
This man is amazing how he developed this van. I think he just found his new career if he is looking.
Absolutely
This has to be one of the best van builds I have ever seen … I would live in this one in a heartbeat.. absolutely beautiful..👍👍👍
Wow, thank you!
It looks amazing the best I've ever seen. Who wouldn't love living in this.
Thanks Linda
Stunning! Beautifully customized; attention to detail is unmatched in the industry.
Thank you very much!
