    Important safety TIP: When using the gas stove inside a closed space van, ALWAYS have proper ventilation to avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning. It is a silent killer. Alternatively get an electric cooker/instant pot, or the van might have any safety exhaust kit I dont know of. Please upvote this answer for them to see this.

    Word of warning. Having lived in a small holiday trailer, I can assure you that, on a hot summer day, that stovetop will turn your van into a blast furnace. I strongly recommend getting an induction burner if your electrical system can support it, or at least a coleman range to use outdoors. A propane BBQ with a side burner would also work but sometimes you are going to need more than one element.

    • @_Thomas_th
      @_Thomas_th 4 роки тому +2

      definitely go induction burner if system supports. Would help you reduce dependency on propane. GoGreen

    Though it is likely too late for this comment, my recommendation is to take the van on a trip for a week or two -- maybe go out camping in a National or State Park. Get to know the van better, what works for you and what doesn't. You will likely learn that some of the things that you want to do aren't a great idea and come up with new ideas that really help you get the van so it will fit your life better.
    Congrats on this new adventure, it will be exciting (once things pick up again) to see you try and visit the various states in the US.

      @Jeanette Perez yes, but in a van they were renting, in a van where they weren't able to change anything. Now they're in a van that they've bought, that's Theirs, that will be their home basically until they are able to travel full time again. It's a good suggestion; if they haven't done it already, they'd be able to have a test run to see what they would want to change permanently, what works and what doesn't, what design stuff would get on their nerves and what doesn't, ect Before they spend the money to do the the changes that they've just Thought about :)

      It’s easy to ship vehicles from the west coast to Hawaii. Depending on how long you stay in Hawaii it can be cheaper to ship your own vehicle. Car rentals in Hawaii can be expensive especially on the big island. I just shipped a Jeep last month from Hilo to LA. I used Matson, total cost was 1,100. Consider car rental and Hotel it would be far cheaper if they were to stay a month in Hawaii.

    Awesome!!!!! Your van is amazing!!!!! Love the build - they did an awesome job. I traveled internationally during my 20 years in the military and all last year with Remote Year - then Covid! So I just bought a van as well to travel my own country! I've got a Winnebago Travato, National Park Edition. I felt very adult as well.

    Since international travel seems to be problematic for the next year or so, I have also considered becoming a road warrior for a while. In my opinion, a professionally built Class B or Class C RV makes more sense than a self modified van. Prices of used RVs really aren’t that bad. Did you look into that option, and if so, why did you select the home-built version?
