You know if you covered the top with solar panels completely and did an electric power swap it could probably work even better as a house on wheels, that way since he's mostly using the vehicle for living he could have a larger battery pack that could be used for driving or living. The extra panels would just keep him topped off easier and possibly allow him to run things with a higher power draw.

@@hugoboss8597 -Although what you say may be true, your comment also sounds selfish…. but let me tell you something, being happy for others also brings happiness to yourself.
This kind of stealth is becoming well known and won’t work in a few years so he should play it up while it lasts. The van was too big overall anyways. A uhaul van is a dead giveaway.
Reminds me of that luxury car from that snl skit years ago. Inside was a luxury car outside had one bus yellow rim a close hanger antenna and other defects to keep thieves from stealing it.
If you were applying for a job at my company, all you'd need to do is show me your truck and you'd be hired. Brilliant design and craftsmanship. Well done.
Sweet! I lived in a stealth van for about 2 years, saw every state in the US except Hawaii, drove the Yukon and saw much of Canada. Never paid a dime in campground fees, never got hassled by the cops and never bothered anybody either. It's a lot of fun if you can manage it.
I wanted to leave a funny comment about how many times he said “stealth” but I couldn’t do it bc I really admire this dude. I wish him all the luck in the world. Great build.
Are you simple? The whole fucking point of living like this is NOT living by rules and timelines. A business like that is WORK, at one place, with time restrictions and customers. Think before you speak/type!
I love the fact he designed the exterior to look like a work truck. It makes it easier to find a place to park the truck. I love how efficient the inside space is as well.
@@iociccio936 It is sad people are mocking him. Those people are ignorant bullies. I agree it is in his best interest to look like a work truck because it is safer for him. Also it allows him to park wherever he wants to park within reason to avoid any fines.
i don't get the need for all that space. just enough room for a bed is fine. he could buy an even smaller work truck and be more discreet, use less gas
This is the most clever, functional, slick, sly, and aesthetically pleasing truck build I’ve ever seen-and I’ve watched hundreds of videos. You sir, are the secret agent of van life! 😎
My one critique is that I think it would have been a good idea to have a rear access door through the "Garage". That way getting bigger items in and out could be easier.
Re-watching after a long break. I'm usually not a big fan of motorized houses, but Jason's take is really exceptional. Among the best features is his mindset: 80% urban rather than the reverse and built to purpose.
@john torres You have a stupid comment that changed the subject from that of the OP. The cleverness of the build has nothing to do with way that person lives at home. Just delete your post, because you cannot add something pertinent to the discussion.
@Damon Garrett That's a good point, Damon. I guess when going in stealth mode, you have to choose your neighbourhood very carefully. Jeez, imagine being woken up by zombie crackheads in the middle of the night... 👁👁 )⛔(
This is grrrreat!!! In the 1970's as a student I lived in a 'stealth van' on the University car park for eighteen months before I was 'discovered'! Your van takes it to another level.
And it can still be done to this day. Heard of some people who lived in their van evem car pay parking fee in parking garages. No one suspected they lived there!!
Listen, this guy could go into business building these beauties on-demand for a living. I think he'd be set for life; the line would wrap around the block a few times!! 😃
Love it! Ain’t gonna lie.. I would prefer an escape hatch over the bed! Maybe skylight? Sliding pantry and a larger, higher fridge. But its really pretty near perfect!
I think this may be one of my most favorite tiny homes ever. STEALTH IS THE KEY!!! I kept thinking however, that you could make a heavy income by renting your outer surface space with advertising wraps! I hear that it’s good money… and you wouldn’t want for anything while in grad school! Nobody would know it was stealth inside even still!
One of the nicest stealth builds I've seen. I was especially impressed with the vent to conceil the window, and the toy hauler style garage and fold down patio utilizing the roll up door components. Great job on the build, and great video presentation.
I've watched hundreds of videos like this one. This has to be the best conversion in terms of practicality, form and function. Brilliant guy who seems to have thought of everything. Love the climbing wall. Sheer genius.
I'm an army veteran I've been living the alternative lifestyle for 10 years now all I can say is it gets easier with every year that goes by you learn all the little mix and ticks that you didn't know the year before that's why I like videos like this sometimes you can learn stuff from other people
I used to work next to Jason! I remember when he bought this thing and started piecing everything together. Awesome to see how it came out, looks freakin awesome! Good work Jason!💪
Hard hat, vest, Cheetos, orange Gatorade works. But if you want to go next level get commercial plates at the DMV. Cost me $15 dollars to get weighed, nearby station 10 mins away from dmv. Cops run your plates.. your commercial the trick is to move 7 days a week in different locations.👍🏼
This has got to be The Smartest tiny home build I have ever seen! And I have watched literally hundreds of tiny home videos (from all kinds of channels, not just this one). Having to constantly deal with either space rent or having to "get permission" to park - those are problems because the rent can go up, or the owner of the space can decide they won't rent anymore. Also getting permission to park on someone's property is great - until they rescind their permission. Seems most tiny homes are very reliant on where they can be. This guy figured out a way around that. Major kudos! Really awesome job.
How about the necessity of a real address for everything in society? For work, school, registry of motor vehicles…etcetera. That will not be realistic for most people,…unless you want to live off-the-grid, kind of.
@@claudejasmin3432 It's not like anyone verifies the "real" address. It's just where all the junk mail will be sent - along with the odd necessity like bank cards, driver's licenses, etc. If you can use a parent or other relative, you're good. Else you'll need a PO Box which should suffice for most things. There is the odd stubborn thing that insists on a fixed residential abode...
@@michaelmcclure9350 The argument isn't whether the climate is changing. The argument is 1. Did man cause it. 2. Can man fix it. And 3. How can man fix it. The word "hoax" is promoted by evil people who want to create invisible enemies to maintain wealth, power, and absolute control.
I applaud him for his build ,having said that I immediately got the vibe that his politics might be the reason for the "why" houses and apartments are so expensive at the moment .
Super clever guy! He’s also lucky to have a friend that helped him build the interior and space saving ideas. He should maybe consider starting a business making these vehicles for other people.
@@royalmcmorris1211 I think that turning trucks and busses into homes is a growing trend. People want freedom. If you're the guy in the video, give me a way to contact you. Maybe I could help.
Think it through before you commit. People make decisions off impulses and many times they grow to regret their decisions. If anyone has any money to put down on a house, use it to buy conventional real estate. In 10 years this guy in the video will have discarded this truck and made nothing on it while you will have a piece of real estate that will have appreciated nicely
This is an incredible build and use of the space. The full size bed loft area, decent size couch and full size desk as well as shower are top notch in my book. The fact that he doesn't have to constantly shift a bunch of things around to convert the living room into a bed etc is pretty cool.
Truly remarkable, if I saw this on the street I wouldn't even know there was a nice little efficiency inside. My fiance wouldn't care for it but you could certainly do worse on space. Blows my mind that you have a bathroom, a kitchen, a work area, bedroom, and a lounge area inside this truck.
Very smart. He has everything he needs and more. He's living his best life as a student...love to see how it goes in the near future. Don't forget to give us an update.
well he's selling it now so its not going with him in the near future! lol i wonder why he's selling it all of a sudden. oh well someone is getting a great stealth home!
Of all the 1’000’s of setups I’ve seen in vehicles, tiny homes, etc, this was by far the best idea and most practical. I could live in that thing indefinitely
Reeealy nice build! The loft bed would be a bit claustrophic for me, but nice not having to hinge down a bed from the walls or something. Good, roomy kitchen space, and even a shower! 👍🏾👍🏾
The convertible sofa bed will solve that problem, there is ample space for that. and the shower space can be a little bit bigger and can have a sliding door
Despite it being a cheaper option than an apartment in the long-term, having something like this is a luxury in itself. You’d need the resources and skills or friends with skills to make something like this. The results are awesome.
Yea unfortunately tiny home/alt living are advertised as something everyone can do but that's far from the truth. Tons of people who build these homes have some kind of labor skill that transfers over to help reduce cost OR they already make a solid wage and can afford to slowly work on it over the course of a year+. Most videos I find they're always like a 3rd generation carpenter with a family of electricians/plumbers or their some high paid salary person who works remotely. This lifestyle is far from achievable for most people.
YOU SOLVED THE ROLLING DOOR PROBLEM! You would not believe how long I've been banging my head on that obstacle, trying to find a box truck where the door doesn't take up the whole ceiling.
What I DIDN'T notice is if (and how nice it would be,) he had access to the "garage" from inside the unit; some kind of passage through, also yet able to be secured with access from both sides, for access to the storage area from inside the unit, AND when on the deck, one could perhaps slip inside and get a drink or what ever; where from the outside it would appear as though he would slip between the "packed" items to retrieve something up towards the front of the truck where no one could/ would have any idea there was actually a "living quarters" in the front or behind the pack items. That would be sweeeeet Additionally, the way he has it, the garage that is, filled/arranged it appears to be a filled "moving" truck from the outside.

Easily one of my favorite conversions! I really like the outside stealth aspect. The inside is so modern but functional. Perfection! Genius! The water capacity is the kicker.
This is the smartest custom build I've seen, and my neighbor makes these day in, day out. It's a literal apartment that's hidden in a box track, fucking genius.
Brilliant build. Love this guy’s imagination and his general vibe. Wishing him well in his grad studies and future endeavors and hope he takes these lessons learned into his career to help pave the way for other urbanites who seek affordable housing options.
I love the rear door/patio but will look for a van with a hydraulic lifter on the back already. A slim tv on the wall instead of the art painting maybe relaxing.
Seriously the most impressive box truck conversion I’ve ever seen, and I’ve looked at too many to count. Everything is so tight and practical. I love it. Great job!
Camp potties and compact composting toilets can be stashed so easily. Sink baths are efficient whether you aim to save water or not. Showers at gyms are gratis for members. There are also private outdoor shower setups for vanlifers. And yes, this build is impressive to me. 😘
You can clearly see that this guy is an amazing person, makes me feel full of joy when I watch this kind people living their dream... You can feel the happiness emanating from him....
He's studying Urban planning - what a great way to set himself up for his transition - imagine telling an interviewer about how you built out your own stealth living facility to live IN the city with solar power and all - sure he's selling it. Mission accomplished.
I think this is the most brilliant thing I've seen, because it is so very hard for rv and campers to be in the city without being constantly harrassed. If this was a thing back when I was 19-20 (1993), I would have totally did this! I'm going to encourage my kids to do this, so they aren't hampered down with roommates or expensive rent/mortgages until they are ready to settle down. They can freely go where they want when they want. It's perfect! 🥰🤯
This is probably my all time favorite conversion!! The stealth idea is so clever...I could live in this truck I think!! And Jason is really smart and just seems like a really cool guy. I wish him the best, well done!! Oh and the construction vest=nice touch!! 🙂
Brilliantly constructed using ingenuity instead of large sums of cash. I like the way you unutilized common available objects and materials and integrated them so well.
I love this one because its not flashy on the outside, others go OTT with exterior. He's done this to his characteristics may look a lil rough on the outside but has a warm cozy heart on the inside.👌🏽he's a cool guy, you can tell.
He is refreshingly appreciative and absolutely NOT SMUG and without ego, like so many of the Tiny Homes spoilt brats are and gave! He's great! Good Luck with your endeavours.👌👍🤗
Usually the spoiled brats live in houses mommy and daddy bought. And they go around putting down others who don't have as much, pretending they didn't have everything handed to them. LOL
This is the perfect permanent living arrangements for me. This is exactly what I would need. I would have no need for the computer work station that would allow enough for a recliner which is all I need that isn't there now. Very nice looking , just think this size apt in New York City and lots of other places will cost $1500 to 2000 a month rent.
@@johnwyatt8057 is that the rent average for studios where you live? You’re in NY right? Out here in CA, the inflation is crazy now…. If you look really hard you can find a studio for like $1,000 but if you want a modern one with good electric in a less sketchy area, you’re looking at $2,200 and up. It’s not do-able for a lot of people…. I’ve had my place for 9 years so I’ve been lucky to not have high rent but the debt I’m in is crippling so living like this in a stealth truck apartment is something i romanticize with all day. Some people try to emphasize this as a temporary situation because they don’t like the idea of people not settling down (as it can create higher crime in some ways) and other things like commitment issues and sometimes even I’ve heard people mention that temporary element in a snarky “not a high achiever like the rest of us” kind of tone. Some are not seeing or realizing the higher you climb the economic ladder the harder you can fall down because of finances. So the idea of complete freedom and the ability to move anywhere at anytime is like….. eating a delicious meal after you’ve been starving for months, to a person like me. A person who sacrificed a lot to make tons of money only to realize a hurtful conclusion about money, social status. Etc. Don’t mean to Project anything on here but what I’m saying is, some of us are nomads, some of us are meant to stay put. Freedom on wheels is what i see here! Freedom and comfort in the smartest way.
Haha, after watching the video I thought the same thing. It's very cool and I give him all the credit in the world. But I was like.... he basically built an RV.
A class C with a toy hauler ramp/patio door. I live in my car and my job is as an RV service tech. This is my newest goal. Sooo many people doing this and car living. This is a really good build. Good job guy and good luck!

Agreed, this dude has a cool vibe.
I love the commitment to keeping it stealth.
This kind of stealth is becoming well known and won’t work in a few years so he should play it up while it lasts.
The van was too big overall anyways.
A uhaul van is a dead giveaway.
I actually like that he’s using a regular truck as a disguise and even the window to look like a vent so he doesn’t stand out 😊
How much???
That’s my favorite part it’s hidding
Reminds me of that luxury car from that snl skit years ago. Inside was a luxury car outside had one bus yellow rim a close hanger antenna and other defects to keep thieves from stealing it.
@Dah Pluggg No one is...
It is really hard to sleep in a vehicle without a cop noticing you and giving you a knock on the door!
This has got to be the coolest home on wheels I have ever seen. Small and cozy yet practical. 😊

Sweet! I lived in a stealth van for about 2 years, saw every state in the US except Hawaii, drove the Yukon and saw much of Canada. Never paid a dime in campground fees, never got hassled by the cops and never bothered anybody either. It's a lot of fun if you can manage it.

Are you simple?
The whole fucking point of living like this is NOT living by rules and timelines. A business like that is WORK, at one place, with time restrictions and customers.

@@ntatemohlomi2884 I was thinking more along the lines of custom giving different types of vehicles provided by his customers.

This is the most clever, functional, slick, sly, and aesthetically pleasing truck build I’ve ever seen-and I’ve watched hundreds of videos. You sir, are the secret agent of van life! 😎
My one critique is that I think it would have been a good idea to have a rear access door through the "Garage". That way getting bigger items in and out could be easier.
I was sold and impressed w/a full size shower!
@@matts1166 I wonder if that's the case. I sent imagine them bringing the mattress and sofa through the cab/front entrance.
@@matts1166 another comment said there was a side door toward the Back just not featured in this video
200% agree so slick and awesome!
Brilliant, especially the vent window cover and re-using the back door panels for a patio! Really pleasant, simple interior.
The vent cover over the window is pure inspiration, Jason. Exposed windows are a sure give a way to any attempt at stealth.
I agree that is genius, because it gives nothing away and deals with the ventilation issue... water vapor and high temps. Nice and well thought out.
Yes it the key to the whole enterprise, deception to would be criminals. Would still keep protection on board.
It really is a brilliant stroke of genius. And multipurpose besides! You (or your friend) are a master of design and simplicity! :)
Mounting the panel so the louvers are pointed upward was smart as well.
Re-watching after a long break. I'm usually not a big fan of motorized houses, but Jason's take is really exceptional. Among the best features is his mindset: 80% urban rather than the reverse and built to purpose.
What a smart man. You can see he’s older, more experienced, he now knows what he’s going for. Happy to see him so content.

This has got to be The Smartest tiny home build I have ever seen! And I have watched literally hundreds of tiny home videos (from all kinds of channels, not just this one). Having to constantly deal with either space rent or having to "get permission" to park - those are problems because the rent can go up, or the owner of the space can decide they won't rent anymore. Also getting permission to park on someone's property is great - until they rescind their permission. Seems most tiny homes are very reliant on where they can be. This guy figured out a way around that. Major kudos! Really awesome job.
How about the necessity of a real address for everything in society? For work, school, registry of motor vehicles…etcetera. That will not be realistic for most people,…unless you want to live off-the-grid, kind of.

This is amazing. I never wanted to live in a work truck until now.
Think it through before you commit. People make decisions off impulses and many times they grow to regret their decisions. If anyone has any money to put down on a house, use it to buy conventional real estate. In 10 years this guy in the video will have discarded this truck and made nothing on it while you will have a piece of real estate that will have appreciated nicely
Yeah, but I'm not sure about the toilet though. I think that's a deal breaker for me.
You don't. A boat on the other hand is pretty cool. Rent one of you are curious.
Get you five or 10 acres of land and park this home truck on it while your tiny house is being built.
Good point
This is an incredible build and use of the space. The full size bed loft area, decent size couch and full size desk as well as shower are top notch in my book. The fact that he doesn't have to constantly shift a bunch of things around to convert the living room into a bed etc is pretty cool.
A man so happy living with the minimal needed.

@@ericksonwall7369 scammer.
Truly remarkable, if I saw this on the street I wouldn't even know there was a nice little efficiency inside. My fiance wouldn't care for it but you could certainly do worse on space. Blows my mind that you have a bathroom, a kitchen, a work area, bedroom, and a lounge area inside this truck.
Needs an emblem on the sides of the truck, such as "Jason's Furniture & Storage". No number. Its not a lie. It IS his furniture and storage😊

Of all the 1’000’s of setups I’ve seen in vehicles, tiny homes, etc, this was by far the best idea and most practical. I could live in that thing indefinitely
Reeealy nice build! The loft bed would be a bit claustrophic for me, but nice not having to hinge down a bed from the walls or something. Good, roomy kitchen space, and even a shower! 👍🏾👍🏾
The extra ventilation he added for the loft bed would help with any claustrophobia
The convertible sofa bed will solve that problem, there is ample space for that. and the shower space can be a little bit bigger and can have a sliding door
Despite it being a cheaper option than an apartment in the long-term, having something like this is a luxury in itself. You’d need the resources and skills or friends with skills to make something like this. The results are awesome.
!!! The whole time I’m thinking this is great but certainly hard to access.
Yeah 5-10k for the truck and 5-10k in tools and labor to build it up like this not to mention the garage and place to build it all
Yea unfortunately tiny home/alt living are advertised as something everyone can do but that's far from the truth. Tons of people who build these homes have some kind of labor skill that transfers over to help reduce cost OR they already make a solid wage and can afford to slowly work on it over the course of a year+. Most videos I find they're always like a 3rd generation carpenter with a family of electricians/plumbers or their some high paid salary person who works remotely. This lifestyle is far from achievable for most people.
But first I need to figure out how to obtain a friend.
They have companies that do it for you…I’d go that route. Pay that off n live my best life
Really a great cozy space. Great ideas and use of space. He is so personable. We love to see an update on his journey through the winter 2022.
YOU SOLVED THE ROLLING DOOR PROBLEM!
You would not believe how long I've been banging my head on that obstacle, trying to find a box truck where the door doesn't take up the whole ceiling.
What I DIDN'T notice is if (and how nice it would be,) he had access to the "garage" from inside the unit; some kind of passage through, also yet able to be secured with access from both sides, for access to the storage area from inside the unit, AND when on the deck, one could perhaps slip inside and get a drink or what ever; where from the outside it would appear as though he would slip between the "packed" items to retrieve something up towards the front of the truck where no one could/ would have any idea there was actually a "living quarters" in the front or behind the pack items.
That would be sweeeeet
Additionally, the way he has it, the garage that is, filled/arranged it appears to be a filled "moving" truck from the outside.

Couldn't agree more!
I really enjoyed his vibe. What an amazing use of space.
modifying the roll up rear door like that was a really neat idea!
Patio and stage
I love the rear door/patio but will look for a van with a hydraulic lifter on the back already. A slim tv on the wall instead of the art painting maybe relaxing.
Seriously the most impressive box truck conversion I’ve ever seen, and I’ve looked at too many to count. Everything is so tight and practical. I love it. Great job!

Camp potties and compact composting toilets can be stashed so easily. Sink baths are efficient whether you aim to save water or not. Showers at gyms are gratis for members. There are also private outdoor shower setups for vanlifers. And yes, this build is impressive to me. 😘
And also, he has a bathroom in his truck. Watch to the end.
You can clearly see that this guy is an amazing person, makes me feel full of joy when I watch this kind people living their dream... You can feel the happiness emanating from him....
He's studying Urban planning - what a great way to set himself up for his transition - imagine telling an interviewer about how you built out your own stealth living facility to live IN the city with solar power and all - sure he's selling it. Mission accomplished.
I think this is the most brilliant thing I've seen, because it is so very hard for rv and campers to be in the city without being constantly harrassed.
If this was a thing back when I was 19-20 (1993), I would have totally did this! I'm going to encourage my kids to do this, so they aren't hampered down with roommates or expensive rent/mortgages until they are ready to settle down. They can freely go where they want when they want. It's perfect! 🥰🤯
This is probably my all time favorite conversion!! The stealth idea is so clever...I could live in this truck I think!! And Jason is really smart and just seems like a really cool guy. I wish him the best, well done!! Oh and the construction vest=nice touch!! 🙂
@Rape Victim ok i guess well hidden is a better term but i think it's clear what i meant
Hiding in plan sight🤔
Brilliantly constructed using ingenuity instead of large sums of cash. I like the way you unutilized common available objects and materials and integrated them so well.
I love this one because its not flashy on the outside, others go OTT with exterior. He's done this to his characteristics may look a lil rough on the outside but has a warm cozy heart on the inside.👌🏽he's a cool guy, you can tell.
I love how this is so homey in the inside but looks like a normal van from the outside. That’s so smart to do
And if this was parked in the industrial/factory district of any city, it would'd draw any attention.
He is refreshingly appreciative and absolutely NOT SMUG and without ego, like so many of the Tiny Homes spoilt brats are and gave! He's great! Good Luck with your endeavours.👌👍🤗

Usually the spoiled brats live in houses mommy and daddy bought. And they go around putting down others who don't have as much, pretending they didn't have everything handed to them. LOL

Dude, you did well. Outstanding temporary living arrangements. It’s absolutely functional, sounds perfect for what you need. Nice job!
This is the perfect permanent living arrangements for me. This is exactly what I would need. I would have no need for the computer work station that would allow enough for a recliner which is all I need that isn't there now. Very nice looking , just think this size apt in New York City and lots of other places will cost $1500 to 2000 a month rent.
@@johnwyatt8057 is that the rent average for studios where you live? You’re in NY right? Out here in CA, the inflation is crazy now…. If you look really hard you can find a studio for like $1,000 but if you want a modern one with good electric in a less sketchy area, you’re looking at $2,200 and up. It’s not do-able for a lot of people…. I’ve had my place for 9 years so I’ve been lucky to not have high rent but the debt I’m in is crippling so living like this in a stealth truck apartment is something i romanticize with all day. Some people try to emphasize this as a temporary situation because they don’t like the idea of people not settling down (as it can create higher crime in some ways) and other things like commitment issues and sometimes even I’ve heard people mention that temporary element in a snarky “not a high achiever like the rest of us” kind of tone. Some are not seeing or realizing the higher you climb the economic ladder the harder you can fall down because of finances. So the idea of complete freedom and the ability to move anywhere at anytime is like….. eating a delicious meal after you’ve been starving for months, to a person like me. A person who sacrificed a lot to make tons of money only to realize a hurtful conclusion about money, social status. Etc. Don’t mean to
Project anything on here but what I’m saying is, some of us are nomads, some of us are meant to stay put. Freedom on wheels is what i see here! Freedom and comfort in the smartest way.
This is by far one of the coolest builds I’ve seen, considering how well equipped it is for staying in places not very “rv friendly.”
