With no insult meant to others who have built a camper in a cargo trailer, this is the smartest and smartest looking conversion that I have ever seen. The kitchen that can be indoors or out, as you please, is incredibly smart AND smooth. It is one of those ideas that, after you see it in action, you wonder why they don’t build all of them that way. Certainly everyone WANTS to do it , but I have never seen it done as if he had built 20 like that and worked out all of the ‘bugs’. The interior looks great, has everything you need and more, it isn’t fussy but is very clean and well built, and it has some extras that would make being stranded for days feel like a vacation. And ALL of that at 1500lbs! A Prius or an Accord can pull up to 2000. Why bother if your suspension can take you way off road but to find a rig that nice that most people could tow with their existing vehicle is the cherry on top. Seriously, the smartest cargo conversion that I have ever seen! Amazing
Thank you very much Rebecca.
Very agree😻
It's nice to read a well-written comment about this well-built camper.
Accords can only tow 1000 lbs and Prius are rated from 800 lbs in the early models with a maximum of 1598 lbs. Just because you can pull it, doesn't mean you can stop it when needed.
@@DeathAngelHRA - that’s too bad. The 2000 Accord and the 2012 Prius were rated at 2000lbs. Had the Accord modified somewhat to handle a bit more, but not much. I made sure it could stop with the load before I hit the super slab. And made sure it could handle reasonable speeds. And stop. Never tried to pull with the Prius as I have a truck to do that kind of thing since ‘06. Frankly, at my age, it is past time that my children or even my oldest grandson do that kind of thing. But I appreciate your instruction as much of the the younger set have not had the benefit of the instruction that were common knowledge before anyone handed their kids the keys to the car in my youth. My kids would roll their eyes at my rules and why did they have to learn to drive a stick or change a flat tire when we had AAA. Having kids of your own makes you smarter so I only had to listen to their complaints about their difficult childhood for about 30-40 years before they started filling the space between their ears while raising kids of their own. My job now is to corrupt their kids and insure the circle continues.
This is no question one of the best builds I've ever seen. Simple, practical and very well designed and executed
Wow, thanks!
This conversion is solid! I love this simple but 100% everything you need for travel nursing love it!
Totally agree!
key word ,rebuilding my sons boat, this kind of relationships are worth more than gold, people who have loving families are so blessed.
Yes, liked that part
This build is the best I've seen, yet. I've been looking for a floor plan that would work.... AND THIS IS IT!!!!! Great job to the builder.
Awesome! Thank you!
sold for $12,500 -- what a phenomenal deal! wish i could have bought it!
I cannot wait for the next one
One of the best DIY trailers I've ever seen
Thank you 🙏🏼
This gentleman put some thought into creating a very comfortable, and useable tiny space in a way that really makes every inch of space feel like a genuine little home. I love the solution he has for the fold up bed supports/storage doors.
Finally a build that makes complete sense and I can use. Been racking my brain trying to figure out how to build out my 6X10 and this is top notch!!!! Well done sir!
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
Roger, I am in the same boat on a conversion, and watching all the online builds is the way to start. I have picked the trailer size so far 6'x8', my wife is supportive give a good amount of trepidation.
Cool build. I really like your video style, letting the owners talk uninterrupted, and waiting for a full answer when asking questions. A nice change from the rapid fire questions and interviewers talking over the interviewee.
Exactly the build I want. This man is a genius.
That kitchen is perfect. I usually dislike outside kitchens on tiny-projects, but the thru from the inside makes that look beautiful.
Thank you! 😊
This gentleman is a craftsman, that is for sure. Nice, looks cozy, I love the kitchen. Thank you.
Thank you very much
This is an awesome build, and I truly enjoyed watching it because the gentleman explained everything so precisely and very detailed. I really enjoyed that. He didn't waste time. It is built exactly how I would want it. I wish I had the money to buy it because this man knew what he was doing when he built it. Thank you for this video. ❤
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
Couldn't find the FOR SALE information link
This gentleman is like the Dick Cheney of camper builders. Awesome!
This is American made at its best.
And this guy is just plain cool.
Yes and yes
Holy cow. I’ve seen so many cargo trailer conversions. His design is so stealth yet he really does cover all bases. Best conversion in this style I’ve seen by far
This man is amazing in all his builds! He thinks of everything and the quality is outstanding! I do not know the pricing on any builds, but it would be worth it!
I am living in my 6x10 utility trailer that is half converted into a tiny home. I'm grateful that I can shower at work and do my laundry there also. I'm currently working on a shower and a pooper so then it will be sufficient to live in. I do have 600 watts of solar and 200ah battery, and then I have a reverse osmosis system, so I'm good for the off grid, and so far, everything is working amazing.
Beautiful. He did a magnificent job. True craftsman!
Couldn't agree more!
This is the BEST cargo trailer conversion I’ve ever seen, and even better and smarter than many conventional campers. If it had an indoor shower I would be making an offer.
Thank you very much Cory
The 6x10 I am currently building will have heat and a interior stand up shower you can check on it's progress on my Grayeagle conversion Facebook page
WOW! Vince made a real gem in such a small trailer. Outstanding DIY build! Each aspect/feature is well designed, with elegant solutions. I particularly like the "pass through" galley, the V-nose utilization, the thoughtful easy access to the wiring (chases, and panels), the clever legs on the pull-out bed platform (notice how they swing under by themselves when he closes it), the nice use of light woods and finishes, the awnings and so much more. Outstanding. And in such a SMALL trailer too! What a gem! Vince is a craftsman. Also notice his organized truck with extra gear.
Thank you very much Steadman
Thank you for your kind words.
Hi, how much your trailer? Thanks
The facebook marketplace add is linked in the description
I’m I hugugu
Such a efficient design! Love the indoor outdoor kitchen access. Vince you left no stone unturned. I’d love to see your wiring details. Great build 🔨
Thank you very much
Hey Patrick .... We LOVE your channel !!!! Keep doing what YOU do BEST ....
Very interesting Cargo build !! Well thought out .....
Thank you very much Rick
Nicely done...we refurbished a 40yo fiberglass camp trailer...I need to do more for resale I guess...Greetings from Baltimore
Thank you very much. Let me know when it’s ready, I’ll have you as a guest on the channel.
I would love to have one of these, perfect tiny camper. Great Job
Really like the access to the outside galley from the inside
I like it too
What an amazing trailer.Me and my wife have decided to build one.I own two of them and really never put much thought into building a cargo trailer.Now we are presently putting 2 of our travel trailers up for sale to fund our new endeavor
Thank you very much
Best of luck to you
hope it goes well!
This camper is genius! I would like to have seen his art work in there too. That wooden piece under the TV looks awesome. GREAT PRICE TOO!
You and me both!
Wait did they say how much it was I missed it
I'm a small disabled person who camps this is really cool and looks so easy and logical to use.
You should go for it
These type of projects interest so many people because of you tube videos. Problem is no one has the skills you have. Wish they still had shop classes in school. To me they are just as important as regular curriculum.
You can do this.
Beautiful, completly decked out for 1 person or a younger, not senior, couple. No way im sleeping in a bed that i cant get to a potty in the middle of the night, but im no Spring chicken, lol.
Sorry it’s not for you
That is one sweet little trailer. Love that kitchen setup.
Thank you. It’s really well designed
I watched it twice. First time just to enjoy it, and the second time to write down all the information he gave as far as the batteries he used and the solar hookup info. ❤
Glad it was helpful!
I like the man! You have golden hands brother.
Thank you 😊
You did a great job. I'm a prepper. It would not work for me but simply a fantastic job. I have a dedicated 5.5x10 utility trailer in my garage in the event we have to bug out. It has everything. In the event we have to leave I've set it up in order to fight are way out if nessasary. I am currently building my ford expedition. It's a dedicated bug out truck. 2 years now. Prepping is a great hobby. Hope we never have to bug out. But we are ready.
Thanks for sharing!
Very well done. I would have never thought that you could get so much into a 5x8 trailer
Thank you Ivan
This is the best cargo van conversion I have seen yet.
Thank you very much Bill
This may be my favorite conversion I've seen. I absolutely love it. This gentleman reminds me of my father. My father was an engineer for 45 yrs.
Happy you found this one
Very nice build. Squirrel having fun at 22:56
Just noticed
Sooooooo I gotta say....I've been waiting to see someone build out a cargo trailer and WOW this build does NOT disappoint!! Freakin' awesome dude and thank you for sharing!!!
Thank you Michelle
Wow, amazing, well planned design!
Thank you very much Dr
Amazing would love you to build one for me IAM 77 years young
I just bought a 6x12 to build into a camper. Lots of great ideas here and build quality is on point
He has a slick setup there. I dig it.
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
Looking at this probably for the 10th time. I love this build. It is fabulous. My husband and I are going to pretty much follow this bld. Accept am putting kitchen in front. It reminds me of a small boat. It is beautiful. I wish he record his next bld. He is a genius. We have no skills but going to give it our best shot. Peace!
Thank you. I have already started on a 6x10 trailer
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
This build is so clean! Makes me want to own one now and go camping
Go for it
A labor of love for sure. Someone will have a lot of fun with that!
Patrick you find some of the most innovative people and they just happen to be van dwellers. I’m so impressed by this gentleman. That bed conversion is primo!
Thank you very much Ron.
Love seeing so many of these cargo trailer builds lately. Definitely some creative thinking.
Thanks Matt.
I absolutely love this camper. Its a clean simple design paying complete attention to all the details and that dual side kitchen is genius. This is a perfect camper for 2 people for short trips and I appreciate the fact thats its light enuff for a V6 to pull because gas is completely ridiculous right now.
I definitely give this a 10 out of 10 star rating if there was one.
Great build Vincent !
We agree!
Similar in design to my teardrop camper, with stand up room, very nice.
Glad you enjoyed it
ive about 50 or 60 of these. this is the best, no doubt.
Oh wow
He made alot out of a small space. Well done !
Thank you very much Stoney
I've seen beautiful comments by many...and I couldnt agree more. I admire this man's age being able to build such beautiful thing on a landscape trailer setup. WOW!! Only thing I can say is keep on rocking and ask the Lord to bless you sir so you can keep enjoying this beautiful outdoors planet with your son. I'm sure as a photographer you have experience great moments in time! 🙏❤💯
Thank you very much
i agree with everything you said…except about the age thing. He’s not that old…he’s got plenty of years in him …lol
Everything so well designed and executed!
Appreciate the feedback
I was thinking ‘I bet this guy works on boats’ … sure enough. Nice build!
Thanks 👍
Very impressive conversion - like everything about it. When he opened the back.& I saw the kitchen I just said "wow". Can't wait to see his next project! Thanks, Patrick!
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
Love it!
Great Build Out.
Thank you very much
This is my favorite camper build
So happy to hear
This was well planned and put together.
It really was
Very detailed and well done build sir, it’s something to be proud of. Great vid Patrick 👍🏻
Thank you kindly
Very nice and well thought out cargo build. Love access to the cooking area from inside.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Something like this would be perfect for me! Maybe, just a little bigger, about 2500 would be great with my SUV!
Glad you enjoyed it
Vince you are one talented dude I'll tell you that
Thank you Loyd
Great workmanship!
Thank you very much Alexsandra
The utility on this build is incredible. Great video!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you, an amazing build. I enjoyed the video very much! ✌️
Glad you enjoyed it!
They have taken the whole "living in a van down by the river" to a new high!
Definitely
This guy shows what happens when you think in advance. VERY well planned out and built!! I have consulted on many expedition builds that have cost $100,000's and they don't come close to how well this one is done!
Hi Patrick
Nice Build !!
Thanks
Thank you very much Leonard
This makes me SO happy... lol... I am totally starting one of these this summer
So happy it was helpful
He’s so awesome for this! I personally never see videos of people over 30 doing anything like this! Love it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is one of the best cargo builds and tour commentaries I have ever seen. He is one sharp cookie. I greatly appreciate how he went through his setup. It's the first time I've ever felt like I understood all the components needed to do a cargo build. Kitchen is genius and efficient. Same with the entire front V and the bed supports. Well done.
Thank you very much for the support
Awesome video, I really like to see trailers converted to campers. Campers have gotten unreasonably expensive. Hope to see more videos like this one!
Thank you very much
Beautiful! This guy is a PRO! Best design and Finish I've seen in DIY let alone professionally built.
Thanks for the gorgeous tour.
Glad you enjoyed it
Well thought out and professionally done!
Agreed
Amazing!!! What a thrill it must be to follow your ideas and see them as a finished product. You’re a true, accomplished artist. So nice of you to share.
Thank you very much Diane
Great video Patrick keep them coming.Nice build Vince.
Thank you very much William
Thank you very much
I see home builds or "no" or low builds as often better than commercial jobs. This is a little over the top and certainly not budget, but it is sooo much nicer than any commercial trailer I have ever seen. Personally, I would want to try and achieve lighter weight, but this is VERY nice.
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
Awesome and epic video thank you so much for making it ❤️👍
Glad you enjoyed it
I so so so want this!!!
Me too!!
Go for it. Link in description for purchase information
Do it
I'm waiting...
I’m just building an overlander camping trailer at the minute this video will be really helpful while I plan my build.
I am happy this is helpful
Very nice design. Applause.
Thank you 😊
🏆Very nice your trailer is the best #1 More please👍😍
Check out his latest build on the channel and it’s for sale
Perfectly executed, great craftsmanship. 👏☺️
Thank you Suzie
Thank You!
WOW! so many great features but the gally door on the inside is my favorite. Such a smart idea.
I know you would like this one
That is really nice camper trailer build. Good Job Sir....
Thank you
the fold down kitchen half wall or whatever you want to call it is pretty cool to be able to access it from the inside. I always thought the kitchen being outside in the back was a stupid design because of rain.
Thank you Mike
That outdoor/indoor kitchen I hope makes a change in the smaller rv industry! That is genius and why I would never buy an outdoor kitchen rv. Because weather isn’t always good enough too cook outdoor in a lot of places. Love this setup and I hope someone else gets too enjoy this amazing little trailer! Lots of love went into this 😀
Thank you very much. His newest build video is up today.
Really nice!
Thank you very much Heather
Outstanding build! Thank you very for sharing the experience and information!!
Pleasure to watch. A humble man who knows how to make things happen.
No flies on him, as we say in Australia.
The next one will be bigger and better, but whoever buys this one will be getting a pretty good set up.
I wonder if one can be made in Australia? We have so many restrictions compared to America for home made stuff.
@@peytonmac1131 A lot of our vehicle engineering and registration requirements are more strict and enforced here compared to the US and Canada, but you can still DIY a camper like that.
We would never get away with some of the car modifications you guys do. Also our electrical and plumbing are licenced trades, so certificates of compliance are required for them in many cases.
What a perfect trailer set up maximizing space and keeping the weight down. The utilization of the truck bed gave me ideas for my wide open b lank slate. Great builds, Vince is very talented.
Right on!
Very cool build. I love it. Congratulations. I keep trying to figure out how to do something like this that will accommodate a motorcycle. Nothing is perfect without a motorcycle. Cheers.
That is awesome. Do it
This is the best one I've ever seen! Outstanding!
Glad you enjoyed it
Ive been building boats for over 40 years and I bet so has this man ;). Great build Sir
That's awesome!
I have to say, this is one of the best built most usable conversions I've ever seen. Very innovative thoughts went into this build. I regret never seeing the link for the sale of it. The only way I would sell it is to build a bigger one lol. Job well done sir.
Thank you for the support
Can’t wait to see the new trailer. This one is very nice. Love the indoor/outdoor kitchen.
I know right...
Thank you very much Patricia
Me too
Probably the best DIY build I've ever seen.
This trailer will outlast any store bought camper by a lot. Excellent work!
Glad you like it
Not without removing the rubber bottom wheep hole plugs from the windows.
