I thought about your van tonight on the way back to Lancaster from down past Oxford as I was trying to listen to some music that really shines in a quiet environment, but at the end of the day, mine is a work truck and most guys think the espresso machine in it is already overkill... I'd love to see yours (and hear it) when it's all done. Maybe one of these days our Sprinters will meet up :)
Would be nice to hear your process, while in holding… Something you said, “not to bore you with” would actually be VERY helpful to many people… the build process. What did you have to do or consider first, then have to consider next… hope that makes sense and thank you for sharing your honest experience… It is baffling how “van tax” doesn’t come with price equivalent support.
I also have a boring everyday driver. I bought it to save miles on my super duty diesel truck. It is a 2016 Subaru Legacy in a fairly low trim package. It may be boring but it starts every time and gets 30 mpg on my commute.
That all depends on when it gets done. I have some BIG trips on the to-do list. I think the first one might just be a small thing to get used to it and try living in the van for the first time with an interior.

It's looking good Jon.
Looks good. Progress is always good. Can't wait til that first camp out with you and whatever crew you put together.
Me too! Should be fun.
Thank you for giving me ideas on what to do and equipment to use
You're welcome! Hope it comes in handy.

I’ve tried to document most of that in other videos. Is there something specific you want to hear about?

Sounds like a smart move to save some money!
Once it is finished, what is your first planned trip?

Please do that by a river. Lol.@@thebatlwgn
Ugh, an Avalon? You have 🔫 that cost more and rattle less.
Haha this thing is actually pretty great
