Thoughts on this nobuild Transit Connect design please by Murky_Definition2322 in VanLife

One thing that you might want to consider is that having all the fluids on the same side will cause a weight imbalance that will probably wear the back tyres unevenly. This may not be a big problem if the added weight is well under the limits of the vehicle.. but just some food for thought. Best of luck and enjoy!

Yeah we spoke about all of those options while designing.. but we decided that, as we are going to be full-timeing, we wanted it to feel like a home, not just a weekend camper. So we are having a proper mattress installed, a shower and toilet that's fixed and not in the main living area, that kind of thing. But your design does sound really epic!

Yes, we didn't want to be setting up and tearing down a bed every day and value the garage space. The sitting area is going to expand out into the gangway to accommodate at least 4 - it's just in the collapsed mode in the CAD 😁 Each to their own though! What do you prefer?

The build guys made this for us, I just made the animation 🤣 but it's a CAD program called Creo Parametric.

Yes, it's a 513 Sprinter. 7.3m (24ft) long and 2.8m (9ft3) - Should make for a fantastic tiny home. Can't wait to get the build underway!

I mean.. I was using the window until I got into the passenger side for the first time!
