Thanks for stopping by. For van build updates, trip updates, and more, check out the blog below. New posts every week or two.
Due to scheduling constraints, I can only work on the van a few days each month, often requiring assistance. Phase 1 focuses on installing outer components and insulation over three build days, with detailed posts to follow for each phase.
On May 22nd, after negotiating with a dealership, I purchased a new 2024 Ram ProMaster 159" High Roof, opting for peace of mind over used options. With the van secured, I'm eager to start the build, focusing first on exterior modifications like solar panels and flood lights.
I'm planning a van build with a sleek and functional design, focusing on stealth and efficient space usage, especially when choosing between bed sizes. Key features will include a water/plumbing system, internal power, Starlink Mini, and stealthy elements for city stealth camping.
I've secured financing for a Ram Promaster and am now focused on finding the right 159" model with low mileage and a clean history. Coordinating an out-of-state purchase and planning a larger payment by the end of May are my next steps to minimize long-term costs.
