what a sweet kid his parents did good he kept calling you sir and i was thinking Jarrod is young but i guess older than him so he has manners great guy great interview
He is a Darling, Clean and Handsome, I'm a Old Lady with 3 Beautiful Daughters and I know his Parents are really Proud!! I want to do Van Life in the future.
Jarrod, those one lb. gas bottles DO leak. The "valve" is just a rubber ball, one speck of dirt unseats it. Camping stores, or Amazon, sell solid brass caps with a rubber inner top, which guarantee that a bottle can't leak. About two for $5, cheap insurance.
Christian is SUCH and amazing young man! Awesome build. Love the simplicity and minimalism. I love the no rent philosophy. I hope he has calculated his savings and is putting money aside for the future. Such an admirable fella! 👍🏻
Love his van build. 🙌🏽🙌🏽So clean & pleasing. This is how I’d like to live when I hit the road. I see so many builds where ppl have stuff everywhere. That’d drive me crazy. Less really is more😊
Absolutely 💯☝🏽 love this Vanbuild.... so clean and simplistic and sufficient. Great model of Minimalist life-style in a Van. This is definitely a favorite of mine..(ps SoCal is the best weather too... living in a Van). Go Christian and Lauren! Happy Travels!! *"Vandie Van 🚐 Wings🦋*
As for a toilet... Christian can easily setup a portable bucket-toilet or small composting toilet...has plenty of underbed space for it. (Sacrifice a little on the number of duffle bags) 🤗 .
I love this channel. The tours and interviews are the best part for me amongst the other cool things you share. Keep up the great work. You have officially sent me on the path of getting a brand new Mercedes sprinter. I went to the dealership yesterday. I will order one custom.
I love this. Great EASY van! When my Hubby retires we will trick out his work van for full time. But, for now, I cut out a mattress pad to fit in the current configurations of his van. My Yeti is a 200 lithium but I don't have a dometic fridge, just a coleman electric ice chest and his van came with it's own inverter so we bounce back and forth.
Another informative tour Jarrod and Awesome build out Christian! I love how you customized it and outfitted it to fit your lifestyle so that you’re not carrying any extra useless gear. Thanks for sharing your build and for the inspiration brotha!
That’s a sweet build. I like smaller van builds such as this one. There has to be a lot of thought that goes into building a comfortable and efficient home on wheels. Of course everyone wants to be able to stand in their van. When you’re on a budget you gotta be a little more creative.
Wow, Jarrod, I love your van build videos but my favorite are the “simple” builds. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this. Awesome job Christian (and parents). Safe travels always.
The best camera is the one you have on you. Agreed. I have been walking around with a disc camera. Hoping the film develops ok. I really miss the excitement of getting flicks developed and not knowing what you got until you open that envelope.
TheRussianLondoner Cleanwaste Portable Toilet, kitty litter, biodegradable composting bags 👍🏼👍🏼 Takes up MINIMAL space, put bag in closest trashcan & still eco-friendly. Toilet has several brands, but you’ll know it when you see it. Folds into briefcase size
Bryan Escober, yes. Especially since his license plate was featured. And his place of employment/city he’s in. Theft is a sad fact of life. I’m thinking maybe his positive vibe will hopefully negate those kinds of experiences. Depends on what beliefs are under the surface in the subconscious.
Thanks for sharing! Love this buildout! Tho maybe because it reminds me of mine a bit. I have a 2001 Dodge Ram Van 2500 v8. The simpler builds like this work soo well if well planned out. It was nice seeing the ladder & rooftop box too because I've also thought to add one since we're 2 people and 3 dogs in our van and the extra storage would be nice. Damn REI has all our money too 😜
I don’t do stealth or have a van but I find these types of videos interesting! I think that this video is about the best because this van has all the necessities and you don’t have to over spend. Like the solar panels that come like a kit and don’t have to frustrate your self with too much wiring! Only thing is having a portable toilet would be a necessity for me! Would come in handy when you wake up in the middle of the night and your too sleepy to go to a gas station. Being a Californian that is living in Kentucky I would have to have a heater n air conditioner! But if I ever live again in California (which may not happen) I can see not having a air n heater there! Question! Are there any stealth home remodelers that live in their van or RV n work and have their tools in it in the San Francisco area? I’ve tried to search through UA-cam but couldn’t find anything regarding that situation. Thanks for the wonderful video!
BIG THANK for FINDING \ SHARING these GREAT INNOVATIVE Van Conversions including Shaiden’s and past year Brandon’s Both have Murphy Beds including GHOST.
Great van for young single guy.👍 Another Sony fan here. Have had a Sony A6000 for almost 4 years as my primary camera. Looking to upgrade to same model as you have but can't quite justify the cost.😏
This is awesome !! I love how organized he is that’s gna be me. If anyone else is building out there van like I am. Question do you dream about how your building out your van ? lmao 😂 I’m trying to figure out how to build a bed and finishing my floor and I legit was dreaming about that. Van life can’t wait
That van is my unicorn. Unsuccessfully searching 6mos. 😢 And, adding (insult to injury) we’re NEIGHBORS in SoCal. Bet he scored one of the vans that I was “too late” for ..... 😫
Look into a peestyle or tinklebell. Seriously, it was a game changer for me! I went on a hike today with the nastiest bathroom at the trailhead. It was so nice not to have to sit on the toilet.
That can be debated. Different situations. I’d say females have it pretty easy during a 4 am tinkle. All they gotta do is sit on the toilet. Outside in the woods they can squat behind a bush while a man has to find a tree and position himself a certain way so he doesn’t pee on his shoes or get back splash. Under what circumstances do males have it easier? Being able to pee on a bottle? Ok I’ll give you that but try peeing with an erection...
My cousin astonished myself and my mother when she announced on a trip that she has a BM like every two weeks or so. I was giggling thinking van life wud be perfect for her 😄
Good question. Yes I have done a tour of it and it was probably my friends Wes and Savana van (aka Tiny Watts Solar). They had a different great layout and the systems were similar to my current ones so I love there's the most
Everyone building their own camper van conversion needs to learn Murphy's Law of Estimating which is, estimate the time you think it will take you and then double that, and then use the next higher unit of measurement. So, if you think it will take 2 weeks to finish, double that to 4 weeks and then use the next higher unit which would be months. So, 2 weeks estimate would be 4 months actual.
Do not put fiberglass anywhere in your van, there's a reason why we encase it in the walls, it's especially not a good idea in a vibrating wind catching tiny van.
I did a video on this a little while ago. If you had it done by an upfitter then it's easier to get that insurance but if a DIY then you'll have a few more problems.

Thx. for such a sweet flirty tour.
Jarrod Tocci simplicity not simplisity😉 also you kept saying yeti and it was a goal zero
he needs a cassette toilet
what a sweet kid his parents did good he kept calling you sir and i was thinking Jarrod is young but i guess older than him so he has manners great guy great interview
He did lol but we are now friends and it was out of respect which was very nice of him
Nice that he acknowledged that his parents helped instead of hogging all the credit. I love that he is so upbeat and energetic.
The kid seems like just a genuine guy. Good for him.
He is a Darling, Clean and Handsome, I'm a Old Lady with 3 Beautiful Daughters and I know his Parents are really Proud!! I want to do Van Life in the future.
I needed to smile today. i'm not even done watching this and this guy and his van is putting me in a positive space today. Thanks!
Whoa, I was hired by REI a week ago, and bought Ford Econoline yesterday haha, can I also be 21 again, please?
So awesome. Congrats on the job as I bet it's a cool place to work. Also love to be 21 again 😂
What year and model?
Mature way beyond his years! Great van build and life story.
They actually teach classes at REI on how to live in a van. That's how you know it can be a respectable lifestyle.
Jarrod, those one lb. gas bottles DO leak. The "valve" is just a rubber ball, one speck of dirt unseats it. Camping stores, or Amazon, sell solid brass caps with a rubber inner top, which guarantee that a bottle can't leak. About two for $5, cheap insurance.

Christian is SUCH and amazing young man! Awesome build. Love the simplicity and minimalism. I love the no rent philosophy. I hope he has calculated his savings and is putting money aside for the future. Such an admirable fella! 👍🏻
What a wonderful guy! Love his personality and gratitude! Really nice van build. I wish for him, many happy trails. Enjoylife!
I like seeing little minimalist builds like this. Exactly all you need. Also, proof no one cares what's on your roof.
Shout out to Christian for being such a cool dude!
Blessings to this youngman he is living his best life and seems to be content and happy...
I wish I had myself this sorted out at 21. Well done!
Great. I’m OCD too, it is nice to meet a brother.
Love his van build. 🙌🏽🙌🏽So clean & pleasing. This is how I’d like to live when I hit the road. I see so many builds where ppl have stuff everywhere. That’d drive me crazy. Less really is more😊
Your the man Jarrod! Thank you so much for doing the tour 🙏
Anytime bud! Thanks for inviting everyone into your van
Jerrod can you fuzz out his license plate number
He seems like a sweet kid. I love his build.
Nice build. Well done, Kiddo. Go have fun and safe travel.

I'm with him about electrical ignorance. His setup is my speed and looks like it takes care of his needs.
The one thing I'm afraid to set up when I look into a van build
Best simple but good looking van build yet!! This is it! I’ve finally decided! Thank you for the up load, helped me make up my mind💫

Love the idea of the bags for storage, it cuts down on weight and they adapt to the space.
Love the white, the dark wood and the simplicity of the build. Sweet!!!!!!
Electric heater blanket and the Yeti is the best off-grid heating solution!
Everyone wants to be 6’2’’... until they have to sleep in a van.
Haha
I kinda like my under 5ft height.
Take my word for it, being really tall isn't everything it's cracked up to be. And I'm not just talking about sleeping in a van.
6'6" here. I'm phukt.
@@dustman96 yeah right
Lovely young man. Great build. Classy upkeep.
One of the best setups I have seen. Super simple and clean looking right on!
That was great. Nice to see these kind of vans and how simple people can make them.
Cool van. Very impressed! Nice and clean, organized. Smart young man. You're doing it right! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow, Jarrod, I love your van build videos but my favorite are the “simple” builds. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this. Awesome job Christian (and parents). Safe travels always.
Impressed...great job well done...basic build and no junk...soooo neat..
I found all these van videos by watching a Honnold video. Lol I live in a 2300 sqft house. I’m in awe of how much crap I own. You guys are inspiring.
Really cool minimalist build.
The best camera is the one you have on you. Agreed. I have been walking around with a disc camera. Hoping the film develops ok. I really miss the excitement of getting flicks developed and not knowing what you got until you open that envelope.
what a great guy! you to jarrod 😂
nice interview and love the van build!
This is just an awesome home! Love it!
Very smart and handsome young man great job 😊
Toilet would make it good enough for anyone, apart from a lack of toilet it's solid 8/10
Another friend and I are planning on getting a toilet into his van. Maybe he'll let us do a video on how we figure all that out
@1234 and a pee jar

YUP....So many options too.
Great van tour & interview..!!!
In my defense I had a promaster on here 2 weeks ago and a transit last month
@@JarrodTocci you are the man..!!
I changed my comment as soon as I read it....
You should really think about getting those shatter proof films for the windows just incase someone tries to break in its good to be safe.
Bryan Escober, yes. Especially since his license plate was featured. And his place of employment/city he’s in. Theft is a sad fact of life. I’m thinking maybe his positive vibe will hopefully negate those kinds of experiences. Depends on what beliefs are under the surface in the subconscious.
Nice build. Very nice .
Living the dream! Keep at it
Great video! Thats cool you just stumbled upon him i thought he was your friend
Neat & clean !🚐
Cool build , thx for shareing, it's more agong the lines of what i plan on doing, great kid ! grest build !
Great video. What a nice life for a 21 year old.
great video awesome build, for a simple kind of build, i wish my sons would do the same, as always safe travels and god bless love ya nancy
Love his home ... its awesome
I like this kid and his build
I love the music entry. Better than the older one.
Thanks for sharing! Love this buildout! Tho maybe because it reminds me of mine a bit. I have a 2001 Dodge Ram Van 2500 v8. The simpler builds like this work soo well if well planned out.

That is a home, sink, bed, fridge, and more very nice setup.
Can’t wait to do my van life
What is REI? Thank you for the video..Very nice build..Have a Blessed Day..
Huge outdoor type store. I think it's recreational equipment inc
@@JarrodTocci Okay ..Thank you for your reply..

Beats paying $2,000 on rent. Sweet. Love it.
Yes. 2000/month 》 24,000/ year 》 120,000/ 5yrs.
And all that is out the window... never to be seeing again.
Neatly designed!!
Nice kid. Solid build.
How is this so minimalist? This is how most Van life builds are like.
Awesome!
Cool young man 🎈🎈🎈
That van is my unicorn. Unsuccessfully searching 6mos. 😢 And, adding (insult to injury) we’re NEIGHBORS in SoCal. Bet he scored one of the vans that I was “too late” for ..... 😫
I thought it was a printer at first
jay_615 Me too😂
I had the same idea.
Me, too, but I was afraid to say anything, lol!
Same
Me 3! I'm still laughing that it's a FRIDGE
Males are so lucky when it comes to bathroom facilities. As a female, I couldn’t imagine not having a toilet in the van.
Look into a peestyle or tinklebell. Seriously, it was a game changer for me! I went on a hike today with the nastiest bathroom at the trailhead. It was so nice not to have to sit on the toilet.

Shane Dennis i never found squatting very comfortable, but your take on things is pretty interesting.
Man this so cool... I am trying to be minimalist but I can’t let go of something’s so I don’t think van life can ever be for me but I am so jealous
Very interested in builds that aren’t high top!
For anyone considering electric: always remember that you should not put a lead-acid battery anywhere in your living quarters.
Jarrod, apart from ghost, what’s your favourite van build.... and have you done a tour of it?
Good question. Yes I have done a tour of it and it was probably my friends Wes and Savana van (aka Tiny Watts Solar). They had a different great layout and the systems were similar to my current ones so I love there's the most
Similar layout to mine. That and the age of the van...we share in common 😀
i love the duffel bag idea
Jarrod, what material did he use for the walls?
How would you be able to pass for a car inspection if they can see you're living in it?
Was that filmed @ MOONLIGHT BEACH in ENCINITAS????
that's a great name!
try Geocaching... good times! Find some sick stealth stuff that way too
I don't have a go pro but really really want one. I'm not very tech-savvy what would you or Christian recommend?
Everyone building their own camper van conversion needs to learn Murphy's Law of Estimating which is, estimate the time you think it will take you and then double that, and then use the next higher unit of measurement. So, if you think it will take 2 weeks to finish, double that to 4 weeks and then use the next higher unit which would be months. So, 2 weeks estimate would be 4 months actual.
Wow...that's what I'm looking for.
What type of floor is this? i live it!
Do not put fiberglass anywhere in your van, there's a reason why we encase it in the walls, it's especially not a good idea in a vibrating wind catching tiny van.
I sure hope it was under 20k. My 2007 E350 is more built out and I'm only into it for about 11k.
This kid sounds like a cooler, younger version of me.
You wish...
@@cscs3557 Do you know me?
Do insurance cover the van and the updates? I wonder what would happen if you got into a car accident
I did a video on this a little while ago. If you had it done by an upfitter then it's easier to get that insurance but if a DIY then you'll have a few more problems.
The Instagram Messages about a new video being posted are working on getting me to click and watch... 👍😎👍
🖤🦇
I'll take it! Thanks bud
What a nice kid! Some girl better snatch him up quick👌🏼
What is the brand of that plug and play battery?
Yeti goal zero
COOL !
