VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Meet the Christensen family, who have found their perfect getaway vehicle in a custom-built van. With a dream that began 3-4 years ago, they sought a way to bond, create memories, and foster a love for the great outdoors. Now, they're inviting you into their home on wheels that makes it all happen.
🚐💨 The Van That Fits Six:
Finding a van to fit a larger family isn't easy, but the Christensens did it. Their journey is not just about traveling-it's about prioritizing what's important, and for them, it's the invaluable experiences they're sharing as a family.
🍳 Outdoor Kitchen Setup:
With an outside kitchen, cooking becomes a delightful part of their adventure. A portable gas stove and a simple, efficient Dometic sink setup keep meals fun and family-focused, proving that a kitchen doesn't have to be indoors to be the heart of a home.
🚲 Family-Size Bike Rack:
Cycling is a passion for the Christensens, and they've equipped their van with a sturdy bike rack from L racks that accommodates all sizes, from the smallest child's bike to an adult's, ensuring their adventures always include their favorite trails.
🔧 Custom Bumper and Winch:
Safety and aesthetics go hand in hand with their Backwoods bumper. Not just for looks, the winch provides peace of mind for any unexpected situations on less-traveled paths.
💦 Water System and Outdoor Shower:
Their favorite feature? The water heater and the easy-to-use outdoor shower system, ensuring comfort without compromising the thrill of the outdoors.
🔋 Powerful Electrical System:
With a robust 400 amp-hour battery and a 2,000-watt inverter charged by 600 watts of solar panels, the van's electrical system supports their lifestyle seamlessly, whether they're on the move or settled in a remote campsite.
🚽 Traveling with Kids:
They emphasize that traveling with kids isn't something to fear. The memories and bonds formed are irreplaceable, and the van has become an extension of their adventurous spirits.

For permanent leaving would not be enough with 4 children, but for vacations is great 👍🏻 , it teaches children to be close and loving family.
Need at least school bus class
Wonderful family adventures! Thank you for sharing ⚘️
This is most definitely an adventure camper van especially
for a family like this and it really is awesome Thank You
very much Tiny Home Tours.🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
So glad you enjoyed it! So cool to see families creating lasting memories and getting out to enjoy nature together. 😊
A pity there’s so many judgemental comments, it was an interesting tour and I appreciate seeing how others do it. Better those children having a life than sitting with the black mirror…
Not 'judgmental' but opinions.
@@HelloNyanCat your opinion, not a fact since stability can mean different things.
You guys are rock stars
Permanent living...NEVER especially as the kids get older...for fun adventures...awesome.
This rig is the ultimate adventure mobile! Becca & Tyler use this as a weekend rig with their kiddos to get out and enjoy nature together. 😊
I love this video and how active these parents are with their children. Doing what works for YOUR family is always great advice.
I love the graphics on the outside and the yellow seat covers to brighten the place up.
We love the outside of the van too! Such a gorgeous and unique touch.
Amazing - making such fantastic memories!
God Bless this family ❤❤❤
A LOT of judgment in the comments 🙄. As many have said this seems to be more of an adventure van than full time living space.
150k for a van with no kitchen, bathroom, generator, ac unit, cabinets. Where did the money go into?
It has a espar heater, max air fan, a dc air conditioner that runs off the lithium(no generator needed), upstaged suspension and brakes and rotors, 2” quigley lift, electrical system with 400 amp hour lithium, 2000 watt inverter, 600 watt solar, back and front upgraded bumpers from backwoods, winch, heavy duty bike repack and also have a rear door storage box and the vehicle was almost new with low miles when we got it. 3 year bumper to bumper warranty. That’s not the comprehensive list but a lot of it. It all starts to add up when you have someone else build it out for you.
Definetly one of the most beautiful wans I ever seen, thank you for inspiration!
Agreed! They did an amazing job creating a space that supports the whole family gettin' out and adventuring together! 😊
4 kids, that's crowded :D
I think a bus with 2 bunks on each side would give each person privacy.
Cool setup, though I believe a Murphy bed is hinged by definition.
Great getaway van, but glad it's not full-time.
I’m trying to imagine how I would get my freak on with that living situation.
Wow super full big time
Definitely not enough space for all the kids. Sorry, but if your going to spend that amount of money, just buy a used class a and enjoy the living space.
It is an adventure van for a large family, not a full time living setup. I have something like this for my family for six. We actually sleeping half of them in the awning room sometimes.
Got to think about what this is used for. It is a people mover to the mountain in snowy conditions- a terrible use case for a class a.
They actually sleep in their van and spend most of their time outside. So they’re not really cramped up inside all the time except for sleeping.
You can see it like this, the need for space… but the way I see it the kids will learn to be comfortable and get along in tight spaces and learn to enjoy the outdoors more than anythin
@@jeannerountree952 the important thing is is that your family is happy and enjoying the adventure.
What seems logical for you may be different for them. They live “out of the van “, not in it.
thats amazing. were a family of six too and we also stay in a campervan with a poptop. where did you get the bed made?
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Idk how they live in this van. It's too small for 4 kids it's too small for 1 child
its part time
This particular rig is used for weekend adventures and shorter trips. Becca & Tyler's main priority is to create outdoor experiences with their kiddos and this rig allows them to do just that. 😊
I can't imagine how they do it. I was Full time for years and I have a 25ft Class C. Just right for me and the pup.
I think they (in my opinion) implied that it’s more of an adventure van, opposed to their full time home. I’m imagining them taking it for up to week-long ish trips but not longer. I imagine they’re financially successful to be able to afford both a house and this van specifically for their adventures.
Yeah that would be an insane number of people to live in a van. No more than two, no matter how decked out. And they’d better really like each other.
@@brookebixler1040 You're correct. Becca, Tyler & their kiddos use this rig to adventure on the weekends and have a home base in Utah. 😊
Yeah🎉
You guys have more room than I do for my 6 person family. I love my Nissan nv2500 but jealous of this setup.
I am about to buy an old U-Haul for $10k, throw some snow tires on it and convert the box.
Get out there in whatever :)
Nice
For the amount of money I would’ve expected actually nice design and significantly more space, so this is probably one of the most disappointing conversions I’ve seen. Idk how they even spent that much money in like 40 sq feet.
Amazing family time you both have created! Also, great use of the space. What type of aluminium channel is used for the murphy beds, shelves and floors?
Some people have a LOT of opinions about this. Think of it more of a super cool camping tent, with warmth and more protection. They don’t live in this van full time. Calm down people.
I’m not sure I could live in a van with such a large family, but there’s no question you guys are creating life long memories, giving your children a wonderful childhood they’re going to remember the rest of their lives, and most importantly, you’re creating a very close family bond that most parents struggle to give their kids nowadays. Eventually, as your kids grow, you’ll have no choice but to find something larger to live. A large toy hauler would be perfect as you can add a sufficient number of beds in the garage, in addition to the other sleeping areas in the rig. A nice used toy hauler and truck will likely cost far less than your van. Of course, as the kids grow you can always toss them out in a tent!
Yes. making love on top of the kids. Definitely.not
Cute setup, but I wonder - if they were willing to pay $150,000 to house 6 people, why not just buy a nice Class C or B+ for around the same price or less. Well, to each his own, but I can't deny that the van is a nice one.
We would guess that the off road capability and versatility of the van was a top priority for Becca & Tyler when looking into their dream adventure rig. 😊
@@TinyHomeTours Makes sense!
Duel? dang, they must be competitive 🤣
That mural is SICK
Agreed! 🤩
Oh wow. I love that 2 bed system going on there almost like bunk beds!!... And hey they could charge rent for the top bunk 😅😅 if someone wanted to join!!
Hi guys, just shows you you don’t have to live in six bedroom house with separate rooms to live life. I know your children are only young at the moment. It is fantastic that you’re actually spending heaps of time together as a family before they grow up and disappear. Keep up the good work. Love your Videos Cliff from Logan City, Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺🧑🏾🦽 we are on the big island
150k for a human cargo van ? was the 1 a typo ? 20-30k would be max, or was the van brand new ?
There's quite a bit included in this build. Things add up fast when you consider the beefy solar setup, the AC unit, fridge, upgraded suspension, bike rack, rear storage etc. Tyler also mentioned in the comments that their van was almost new (low miles) and has a 3 year bumper to bumper warranty.
All of those things paired with labor costs add up quite quickly.
Awesome I want to meet the father
These kids are going to remember and cherish this adventures forever! Great job on creating so many memories together!!
That is a very nice van.
Its an interesting build and all but c'mon now its 6 of u in a small space and all.... For the amount of money you spent on that 150,000 you could of hooked up a really awesome school bus instead. I say trade that in for a school bus or RV, have MORE SPACE for the kids and make things even more easier for u guys.... Hey you can have your OWN sleeping space as well and a kitchen with dinette table and so forth. Just saying. But hey too each is own.... God bless and be safe out there!! Happy holidays!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘
Cute but when the kids are older you'll need something bigger such as family RV or renovated bus.
👍🏻🤗😍🔥🥰
Love it guy's safe Travels Always God Bless Ya'll
Oh my gosh! How wonderful!
Really love the van! We are also a family of six living in Greenville, SC. Our kids ages range from 3 to 8. I didn't see it anywhere, who did your van build out in Kansas City? Thanks!
Looks like this van was built by Vandoit. Here's a link to their website: vandoit.com/ 😊
Humbled to be a small part in your guys family story!
You live in this full-time? With six people? I can't believe it.
This particular van is an adventure rig for the Christensen family. They use it for weekend getaways and shorter trips, but have a home base as well. 😊
Love it
This really is awesome and high fives to them for getting their kids out there. Their money, their rig, it just seems from my outsider’s perspective that they put a ton of cash into something that they don’t even use to its full capabilities (meaning, taking it on short trips that, in his words, aren’t off roading.) They could have gotten by with more for less cash, but overloaded that thing, in terms of what they use it for.
With four kids and two adults in such a small space I can see that it would be an adventure Allright.
you didn't mention if you home school
Hopefully this is not full time??… skoolie would be better IMO? Looks like it’s working well for them tho!
This is indeed an adventure rig used for weekend/shorter camping trips.
