I feel like that last sentence wraps it up with a neat little bow - "I'm happier, to be honest." Love the van, too! I have an 89 GMC 2500 that has been an excellent camper van. I plan to add a kitchenette and a few other things soon.
You have beautifully decorated. Roadtrek is the best designed camper van EVER! Have you joined the Roadtrek Classic Favebook group. Wonderful members, knowledgeable, helpful and happy.
I love how you redid ur van. I also gotta say, if I had ur van the way it looks right now, id be super happy too. I love it. Very warm, and cozy. Thank for sharing. Be safe, stay well and God bless.
Love your video I bought a van just like yours two years ago it’s a 2000 road trek 190 I love every minute living in it I would never buy a house or rent you have everything you need I live in California Huntington Beach I go to the beach every day with my little dog Lily she’s 16 years old she loves the van too I’m glad you posted it’s rare to see one of those van on UA-cam Live well my friend
Great job! What an amazing space. I had not realized that that sized van could be organized so well. You should be able to park almost anywhere. You will be able to save so much money! Well done!
What a nice van. I have an older van it's a 1996 E150 Ford and i love it. Old but comfy and dependable. loyalty &royalty 😀 can be thrown in the mix as well. Lol
Beautiful home! Just an idea. Put a tin box under your bed around the furnace vent and move the warm air toward the center of the van. So that would be a 3-sided box. Top, and 2 sides!
Hi from Western NC! I recently won your vans "twin sis" at an online auction. I am super excited to find one of these great vans. As you probably know the conversion company is in Canada. Hard to find one in decent shape with low miles & that hasn't been driven to death. Nice catch girl! Maybe our paths will cross someday.
Just loved your van! What an awesome deal (value), looks super clean considering its age. These older vans have so much more character than the new “boxes on wheels”. I wish you and your rig only the best.
I recently picked up a 1987 Dodge B250 Leisureway van, its a very similar layout as yours, Brittany. I immediately painted the interior to brighten it up, and am going to work on it over the winter to prepare for spring travels. There are several ideas from this van that I will consult with my volunteer interior decorator, haha. I'm sure she would approve!!!!
You sure do know how to make a small space feel very spacious. Couldn’t tell it was in a van till the outside shot. I see why you feel at home in it. Great job ma’am. I’m now subscribed
I watched one solo female vandweller video now my suggestion list is nothing but that there must be at least 5000 different channels doing this right now
With these older vehicles I don't hear many people talking about the mechanics. Would love to know the gotchas to look out for when buying an old van in the $3-$6000 range. Any insights welcome!
This is the first one me and my girlfriend watched that we can relate to. I don't hate people, I just hate being around them. The bed idea is super super sick and the ventilation for the heat is great too. I really like how you have a cozy little bedroom because honestly that's where we would pretty much always be anyway if we're in the van. Another awesome thing is the price is realistic, it's not a fake van life video with a 65,000 dollar Mercedes van that got 10-30k in renovations. I dunno this was super cool to watch and I got some great ideas, thank you from both of us.
Thanks for taking the time with this comment - we appreciate it. We have to agree- Brittany's van is really a realistic work of art that we think MANY could learn from. BEst of luck on your journey!
Very nice my wife and I just bought a 1992 of that same van. I just built shelves next to the toilet we didn't feel that we hang up much on hangers. We felt shelve room wold be better. I like the white walls it really brightens it up inside.
I've put my house on the market and planning on getting a van as a project and escaping. I've watched LOTS of videos for ideas and this looks exactly what I could see myself at home in. Love the general design and the whole homely feeling ...excellent X
I LOVE IT! I recently purchased a 1997 Dodge Versatile 190 and I am in love. It had a lot of water damage and it has taken me over 10 months. I started with the chasis first and now it is great mechanically. The camper part has been a challenge and I can't find who can work on it so little by little. The only downfall is that my model did not come with a generator spot so I am hoping I can fit a small one in the compartment and hook it to the propane. Lots of work.
A few years back I had a 1988 dodge van exactly like that.... except the stripes on the outside were burgundy. It was really small and difficult to live in comfortably.
I had a dodge maxi van like that years ago sorry the day I sold it. Enjoy sweetie it's a beauty. Really happy for you. Now I'm sad....lol ....stay safe
It's beautiful. I love it! Add some solar capability and internet/phone booster, a mini shower set up, a pet companion and it's purrfect! Who needs a house at Brittany's age - it can be an albatross :-O
@@chasethecat3839 So? Am saying the van is great. That's my dream and would be part of my requirement. To work on the road, internet would be key to doing that. A shower would make me happy. I haven't been without a furry companion in 60 years, and they're family to me!
Love your van! Question - Do you have issues with having your propane tank refilled as it is fixed/stationary in your van? I'm struggling to decide on which tanks to install in my 95 GMC/Safari -Tiger/Provan.
It looks so roomy. Looking at her windows, I wonder if they're frosted/have some kind of glaze over them to allow light in while also not being visible.
Love the van. How many miles did it have? I have a 2007 RT 190P (Chevy). Did you paint the interior white or did it come that way? It really brightens up the interior. Why did you have to tear out the walls and redo the insulation? Was there a leak or were you just concerned that it might not be properly insulated? The cabinet up on top in the middle at the back is where my air conditioner/heat pump is. If I can't fix it, I have been thinking of just removing it and putting in another fan or something. Did it come with an outside shower? Mine has the inside shower in the aisle, but it fills up the gray tank pretty quickly.
"I just want to be alone" she whispers.
Girl i feel you. That's how ive been feeling this xmas lol
I so feel the same. I love being alone
Keep the ceiling! It looks nice, fades into the background and looks insulated.
Thought the same~! Why would you get rid of that gloriously retro insulated tufted ceiling? NOOOOOOO lol
I was thinking the same. Love the ceiling. Like a puff of clouds. :-)
yeah i agree!!
Great ceiling 👌
Same here!!
Absolutely amazing! Your dream home, and you didn't have to spend an arm and a leg for it!! Enjoy it girl. Happy trails!
Thank you for the kind words!!
Would you like a friend to share with
Love the ceiling! You chose wisely. Road Treks are amazing and parts are readily available.
Amazing van, can understand why you love it so much, looks very comfortable .
Thank you for stopping by to view it. Much appreciated.
"I just want to be alone".... Love it, and amazing van !
She is super cute. So is her van. It's fun watching and listening to people so stoked on their rig. Especially the seasoned, unpretentious ones. 👍🏻👍🏻
Love those old Roadtreks...built to last! Keep that ceiling!

I love the ceiling! It looks like it was the deluxe trim of it's day.
You did a wonderful job!!! I even like the ceiling that you're going to change😃
I love how you redid ur van.
I also gotta say, if I had ur van the way it looks right now, id be super happy too. I love it. Very warm, and cozy.

Ceiling looks great....and it too is cream 😁
Great job! What an amazing space. I had not realized that that sized van could be organized so well. You should be able to park almost anywhere. You will be able to save so much money! Well done!
we 100% agree. Britany's van is quite the awesome home on wheels :)
Love your efficiency apartment/home. Who needs more ? What a great place to call home . Enjoy your life and always be happy 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
Really utilized the space very well. It's nicely decorated. I like!
Your home is so gorgeous, earthy, and looks comfortable!
I love the van. Very nice. The ceiling is awesome tho. I love the original ceiling
I love 💘 the skylights.
What a nice van. I have an older van it's a 1996 E150 Ford and i love it. Old but comfy and dependable. loyalty &royalty 😀 can be thrown in the mix as well. Lol

Incredible van, and I can’t believe you did all that for less than $8k! Great job, and well thought out and organized!
Love the retro look full of character and so practical and big
Hi from Western NC!
I recently won your vans "twin sis" at an online auction.
I am super excited to find one of these great vans. As you probably know the conversion company is in Canada. Hard to find one in decent shape with low miles & that hasn't been driven to death. Nice catch girl! Maybe our paths will cross someday.
Congrats on your purchase! Enjoy it!
Your set up makes it look like you have loads of room. Its one of the best I have seen
Just loved your van! What an awesome deal (value), looks super clean considering its age. These older vans have so much more character than the new “boxes on wheels”. I wish you and your rig only the best.
Kickass, totally dig what you did with that classic RT! And it's still a normal affordable van.
I recently picked up a 1987 Dodge B250 Leisureway van, its a very similar layout as yours, Brittany. I immediately painted the interior to brighten it up, and am going to work on it over the winter to prepare for spring travels. There are several ideas from this van that I will consult with my volunteer interior decorator, haha. I'm sure she would approve!!!!
How did it end up?
You sure do know how to make a small space feel very spacious. Couldn’t tell it was in a van till the outside shot. I see why you feel at home in it. Great job ma’am. I’m now subscribed
I watched one solo female vandweller video now my suggestion list is nothing but that there must be at least 5000 different channels doing this right now
If it's not too late, KEEP the ceiling!! It looks awesome and so plush!! 🤓❤️ It's hard to find tufted white material, I'm still looking myself.
Great idea!!
You young lady are one smart cookie . This is great !
Keep the ceilihg as it is. Gives the van a warm cosy look
Love those vans. Good size. You can stand up in. Good space, double doors. Great build
Not to mention it's manuverability.
Love the ceiling it goes so well with what you to the inside !!!!!
Sweet rig..perfect for what I'm looking for...*still manifesting and working hard
The most perfect Camper van ever ❤️❤️❤️
Well organized
Glad you liked it.
Looks great. I’m looking for one but so far the ones I’ve seen are too far gone. Safe travels. Have lots of great adventures.
With these older vehicles I don't hear many people talking about the mechanics. Would love to know the gotchas to look out for when buying an old van in the $3-$6000 range. Any insights welcome!
We aren't too sure as this isn't our personal rig but it sounds like Brittany did her research with this one and has been lucky since!
This is the first one me and my girlfriend watched that we can relate to. I don't hate people, I just hate being around them.
The bed idea is super super sick and the ventilation for the heat is great too. I really like how you have a cozy little bedroom because honestly that's where we would pretty much always be anyway if we're in the van.

Damn girl this is an awesome set up!!! I wish i did this when i was younger. But it's never too late 😀 very inspiring
Brittany is pretty great, we agree
Love your Van. i feel envious. Hope someday I can afford to buy one and go to places.. the farthest it can reach ❤️
Best van I have seen
It's beautiful. I love it! Add some solar capability and internet/phone booster, a mini shower set up, a pet companion and it's purrfect! Who needs a house at Brittany's age - it can be an albatross :-O
Anything else? Lol. Those are WANTS, not needs
@@chasethecat3839 So? Am saying the van is great. That's my dream and would be part of my requirement. To work on the road, internet would be key to doing that. A shower would make me happy. I haven't been without a furry companion in 60 years, and they're family to me!
I want one of these!!
Love the journey so much fun ☮️🕉☯️
Wow nice home camper👍🏼
Love your home/ van!!!
How did you create the couch area behind the driver's seat? Very cool. I see others and they just have two seats behind the front seats.
were pretty sure brittany got the van like this, its this models standard layout. either way, it is pretty cool
Your home is gorgeous!!!👠🚌👠
The quintessential introvert! You go girl!
Brittany is great :D
Nice vintage ride
Indeed.
My '88 RT has an "antique vehicle" license plate.
I love your van. Good for you!!!
