After watching this, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him fit the Mall of America and a regional airport inside his box truck rig. Ray is already a legend, and he’s just getting started. Incredible.
It's fun to contrast with my lazy approach. If I had a box truck it'd become a cardboard palace inside. I love cardboard no-builds, you can change it up whenever you want. It responds well to moisture, doesn't condense on it when very cold like many modern surfaces. I like to sleep cold and hang out warm, many surfaces condense the breath and can ruin all sorts of stuff over time. But not good old cardboard, a hobo's best friend :)
@@HoboGardenerBen Have you seen the paper mache camper “build” that Minivan Camper Gal has made in her new SUV? It’s built on a cardboard frame, then paper macheed for stability.

Exactly....my sentiment exactly. Clear and clean and so efficiently setup. No ^Excess Stuff^. Very good role model....to say the least... for those who are MiniVan campers and dwellers. 👍🏾🚐.
Man-- not only has he provided the essentials, but even has aesthetic niceties like the peaceful looking plants at the window. He's made the MOST of the space. Smart guy! 🏆
Yes, that could be a wonderful way to make some pretty passive income (though would need branding and a marketing plan so does take work and/or hiring soneone to help).
Yeah I've seen a million of these van builds and this one might take the cake. There should be an award ceremony for van builds this guy wins the oscar for best picture.
Ray Rambles had 26 subscribers when I just went to his channel to subscribe myself. And it feels like that number is about to rocket launch into outer space because now we all want to see what else this clever, engaging genius does for fun!
At first, I thought we were viewing a TARDIS (bigger on the inside!😄) Amazing - what a creative build. I always wonder, Bob, how does it feel to see these great builds and know that your channel provided the inspiration?
this is the most cleverly built van I’ve ever seen. He should work for RV design company. It’s amazing how many things he thought of and such a small space! Great job!
Ray, this is the most thoughtful set up I have ever seen! You have everything you need without having to move a bunch of stuff to get at everything. Everything is wonderfully organized and aesthetically pleasing. I wish you success with this and can't wait to see what your box truck setup will be like ! Don't forget to share his next wonderful home on wheels with us BOB !!! As usual, great video ! :)
@@nonya.biznesswhen I first saw that I thought it was a suitcase and my lightbulb went off. If you put the right size suitcase in that area you're ready for an occasion when you need to fly somewhere and the rest of the time it's your storage bin
Can't wait to see what this fine genius gentleman does with a box truck since a box truck is also what I want to use. But this minivan is mind-blowing, probably too small for my taste but still...
Wow! This IS very impressive!! Amazing how much he has in such a small space and it doesn't look cluttered. Can't wait to see what he does with his next build. Thanks for sharing!
I would love to see what the shower tent actually looks like, and also what's going on in the front seat. Your title delivered, though; mind blowing build!
Yes indeed what an awesome ... great setup in a Minivan. It's incredible... very practical and a space saving build. I had to watch it twice... simultaneously....that's how great this is. Thank you Bob for sharing and I look forward to seeing his next Van/Box Truck setup. Based on this startup.... it's going to be totally Awesome! 👍🏾. Safe and Happy Travels! 🚐🗺️🛣️! *
Nicest, most efficient van I have ever seen! The man is brilliant! I can't wait to see his box truck built. It is spectacular, Bob! Huge wow! Love that he has a toilet. 😊
Very nice. I like everything has its perfect spot. The folding table, love how it is designed to tuck away. Two Bodegas, one for refrigerator, and another for freezer. Amazing build.
Amazing! As Bob said: "The best minivan build!" Comfortable for a tall guy: I'm just 5'6" it would feel like a mansion to me! 😂. This is another example of how many people Bob inspires every day! Best channel on YT, by far!
Great job! I can't believe how much stuff he was able to fit in that "mini"-van!! He's come up with a lot of great ideas that have allowed him to be off-grid and fairly organized. I live in a 40-foot Skoolie, and I'm constantly trying to come up with space or organize something, and I try to give away things that I no longer need... Living this lifestyle, it's all about finding storage without overwhelming the space. I'm also impressed with how he's done his power setup, including the tilting solar panel and toilet 😂👏
THis guy has been a big fan of magnets since the 60's. I like to see him use them here. When will someone come out with a window design where the solar is imbedded or easily attached?
After all these years of videos-this might be the BEST one. This fellow is an articulate genius. Very impressive…
Agreed! This build is so organized and functional.
I really would of like to see the sleeping position, but definitely a great build,He's Smart 🎉❤🎉.
The bed is someone’s design. It’s on UA-cam. So much is just a copy of another. It is a great layout thanks to the first designer 😅
We all get our excellent ideas, from someone else. That's what we call "a community"!!!
Spot on
Bob, I sure hope you get to interview Ray again when he gets his box truck. If he did all this in a minivan, just imagine a box truck build...
After watching this, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him fit the Mall of America and a regional airport inside his box truck rig. Ray is already a legend, and he’s just getting started. Incredible.
I second that.
His box truck build will have a helicopter pad on the top.

Give this man a Pro master, or Transit, and he will make a 5 Star Hotel room with a little pool , why not :)
You're right! He's so modest about what he did, too.
He could make a career of Engineering/Desiging vans and tiny homes oh my. He's quite smart and articulate in his thinking, love it!
the guy is a genius. Humble too.
Loves ❤️ to cook too! Amazing movable Spice rack❤❤❤
That man is a genius. Like an adult Lego set.
Engineers ftw.
😂😂😂😂😂 true!
Sir, you need to design these things for people. This is amazing!
No. This man wants to get out into the world and enjoy his life. Why get stuck at a job again.
He certainly would do a good job at it.
@@jermaineross6101He has a job, he isn't retired
2nd THAT!

Ya know why it's so amazing? (1) a place for everything and everything in it's place and (2) no junk. Clean, clear and clutter free. VERY nice!
attention to detail, coupled with an eye for aesthetics
Exactly....my sentiment exactly. Clear and clean and so efficiently setup. No ^Excess Stuff^. Very good role model....to say the least... for those who are MiniVan campers and dwellers. 👍🏾🚐.
But still comfortable
Man-- not only has he provided the essentials, but even has aesthetic niceties like the peaceful looking plants at the window. He's made the MOST of the space. Smart guy! 🏆
He could make a PDF set of plans and sell to people converting a van. This set up could be adapted to any van build..NICE..Best Regards
@oldguy5458 best thing you could do is make your own & leave that guy alone. He has a full time job already
I was wondering he had an engineering background too? He really should be an engineer! Sheer genius!
This is what I was thinking.
Agreed

Amazing! This conversion is the Swiss Army Knife of minivans! I’m going to watch this video again & again until understand as much as I can! TY both!
It’s a fully-loaded RV without all the problems and expense. Brilliant.
Not the cheap, easy, light route; but he knows how to fix everything since he did it himself
This man is a good planner who thinks things all the way through.
Wow! This guy is a genius! It kept getting better and better each time he showed something new. Fantastic job!

his electrical wiring to and from that power station is 😍😍😍 if u put ur mind to it, u can do anything! the entire build is genius
Not true. I couldn't make this no matter how much I put my mind to it. I wish I was capable.
Spatial genius! aesthetically pleasing and so wonderfully organized. Woo hoo.🎉
He's putting us all to shame. He's using every square inch for constructive use. So impressive.
A passion for building and problem solving coupled with a feel for the aesthetic--Wonderful!
WOW unbelievable! That is hands down the nicest van Bob has ever shown us. This guy is a total genius!
This guy is BRILLIANT!
At first, I thought we were viewing a TARDIS (bigger on the inside!😄)
Amazing - what a creative build.
I always wonder, Bob, how does it feel to see these great builds and know that your channel provided the inspiration?
The electrical system ❤
The running water ❤
The modular living space ❤
Wow! 😮
Im impressed with the microwave and toilet set up. He really had everything he needs!
Wow he has everything! Great job 😊
great setup! So much in there but not crowded feeling.
This has to be the best designed minivan ever!
this is the most cleverly built van I’ve ever seen. He should work for RV design company. It’s amazing how many things he thought of and such a small space! Great job!

❤ wiring basket handles together so they come out in a row is genius.

Ray, thank you for doing this video with Bob! You are amazingly talented! Your minivan is packed with brilliant ideas. 😊
That self-build is a work of art. WOW - just WOW!!!
he could airbnb those - they are so aesthetically pleasing - with every want being met
Wow. Just wow.
My exact reaction 😊
What an amazing minivan build. Very impressed at the planning and design that went into this. Congratulations, Ray. Enjoy!
Bob that man is extremely talented and his craftsmanship is the best I have seen absolutely beautiful 👍😀
This Van is absolutely amazing.❤❤❤
Can't wait to see what this fine genius gentleman does with a box truck since a box truck is also what I want to use. But this minivan is mind-blowing, probably too small for my taste but still...
This is the BEST build I have ever seen. Very thoughtful, precise......Wow. Incredible job. Thanks for showing all of us.
Obviously a master of Tetris! 😆 Very cool!
He is an engineer at his core.
I agree. This is the most brilliant and beautiful minivan build I have ever seen. I can't wait to see his box van build!
So nice! It never stops amazing me when I see how creative others get on these buildouts. This is awesome!
Holy smokes!! That is hands down THE best minivan conversion I have ever seen!! I would like to know the cost of the build and how long it took him.
Wow! This IS very impressive!! Amazing how much he has in such a small space and it doesn't look cluttered. Can't wait to see what he does with his next build. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent Ray!! Thanks Ray and Bob.
WOW!! He's got it all!! Fabulous designing skills, hats off to you sir!
I would love to see what the shower tent actually looks like, and also what's going on in the front seat. Your title delivered, though; mind blowing build!
If the owner is reading this on his starlink you are the man!!
Love his home so cozy and comfortable❤

Dude... you've got THE best minivan build EVER!👍💯
That Guy Really Has It Together. Now just imagine what he could do with a full size stand up van. Hey Bob.
The best one that I've seen.
Great video. Incredible amount of ingenuity. Am looking forward to what he develops when he has a larger vehicle like a box truck or cargo trailer. 👍
Sooo ingenious detailing. Unreal.
I can’t wait to see what Ray does with his box truck!! This is so well throughout and with some really cool features!!
All I can say is, This is AMAZING!!! Fantastic job Ray!! You should be so very proud!! So happy for you!!
Nice!!!
How does the bed fold down?
Nicest, most efficient van I have ever seen! The man is brilliant! I can't wait to see his box truck built. It is spectacular, Bob! Huge wow! Love that he has a toilet. 😊
Wow! Very thought-out, measured and executed. No voids or wasted space. Great job Ray!
I can't believe how neat and accessible everything is! And there is soooo much! I am beyond impressed 😮
Very nice. I like everything has its perfect spot. The folding table, love how it is designed to tuck away. Two Bodegas, one for refrigerator, and another for freezer. Amazing build.
Without a doubt, the bestest!! From a former van dweller!
Incredible. Big thanks to both Bob & Ray for sharing this amazing and complex build!
This guy is a genius..
I love his floor plan on his build..absolutely amazing
Amazing! As Bob said: "The best minivan build!" Comfortable for a tall guy: I'm just 5'6" it would feel like a mansion to me! 😂. This is another example of how many people Bob inspires every day! Best channel on YT, by far!
Fabulous! Ray could have a side gig designing/helping people with their set ups. So clever and well thought out. That tech mind at work 👍🏼👏🏻👍🏼😊
Wow, excellent build.
I agree with Bob that this is the best possible use of space for a minivan I've ever seen!
It's gorgeous but I wonder what he has spent on all those goodies, I am sure he saved alot by being able to put it together himself.
Wow, he has thought of everything! Impressive build! Probably the best equipped mini van I have ever seen!
Great build. Did I miss where he keeps his clothes? Can’t imagine what he would do with a big van.
Right?
I have watched this 4 times now, your Odyssey IS an Odyssey of Nomad solutions, wow!
Could convert vans for others and earn a tidy living I believe, he's talented guy. 👊👍.
Definitely. I would be interested in the AC and heat. And I love the sink, and the cabinet for the microwave 😄.
Great job! I can't believe how much stuff he was able to fit in that "mini"-van!! He's come up with a lot of great ideas that have allowed him to be off-grid and fairly organized.

Ingenious. Does he have an engineering background? The attention to detail is fantastic. Looking forward to seeing his next build.
He said no at the end of the video.
Wow, this guy is spectacular! So smart, so meticulous, and detailed. Yeah, he has a wonderful brain.
Agreed, Mr. Wells this mini van was designed to perfection !
This is the best interior build I’ve ever seen.
Yes that's a nice setup 😍
This guy is incredible. He has thought of everything.
This is amazing and he thought of everything! He really could do this for a living as this build is that good!
This is a spectacular mini van build!!! How amazing to be that knowledgeable AND a carpenter!!! I'm very impressed. 😁😁😁
Absolutely incredible build! He has thought of everything and it all looks so well built! Bravo! ❤️
This is amazing!! How well thought out, he is a genius! The simplest thing, zip tying baskets together for pull out storage! LOVED THIS VAN❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❤
What an amazing build! He's got a ton of stuff in the tiny space and so practical and accessible
Complete organization that really makes it a great mini home.
Wow, what an amazing use of space. Ray really has a gift for it.
This guy is a genius for organization!
THis guy has been a big fan of magnets since the 60's. I like to see him use them here. When will someone come out with a window design where the solar is imbedded or easily attached?
This is absolutely the best build I have ever seen. He must be an engineer.
I have no words😮❤❤❤❤❤ genius is all I can think of👍
WOW! So well thought out... every inch is used efficiently, and it's still comfortable! 😃👍❤
wow use of space !! best setup !love it ! thank you for sharing,hugs from MN
Wow this is a brilliant build. Best I’ve even seen in a mini van.
Super organized!
This guy could build these out for a living! Great work!
Tiny and beautiful. Serine and Simple is loving this! .
Absolutely fantastic. Smart guy for sure. Can't wait to see what he does with a box truck!
