We’re discussing the priorities we had leading to choosing the Promaster and giving tips and tricks on finding the vehicle that fits your needs.

“ ...it could be a daunting task. I don’t know what the word daunting means but I read it...” I literally just died!!

Gotta say I’ve been watching hundreds of van life videos over the whole summer as I research for my own conversion, and yours is the only channel I felt I ABSOLUTELY MUST subscribe to. So after months of research I’m subscribed to a grand total of one vanlife channel, yours!!!! Your humor, information, editing, everything is spot on and makes me want to watch more! Keep up the good work!

Guys, I’ve gotta say. You have by far the most entertaining van life channel out there. It seems so effortless, but I know from experience that what may appear simple is in fact hard to do and requires a lot of attention to detail. In addition to being witty, you are also highly informative. Keep it up please. Oh, and one last thing...being married to a Canuck also means supporting you 👍😀

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i'm too addicted to the goofiness. please make haste with the road trips so I can binge-watch. start with your current city, show us around the wild life, attractions etc. much love from Trinidad & Tobago ❤

Loving the quality of your videos. Keep up the great work! Maybe I'm bias but I have an affinity for Canadian vanlifers.

OMG you/this video has just saved me a tonne of research and debate. So well done, concise and precise with your usual splash of humour. Thank you! And for what it’s worth I like the Promsster. Looks very modern. 😬😬

We are in Florida, just found your awesome channel. Currently finishing our build. We have watched all your videos and love then all. Your channel will be big. You have such positive personalities and fantastic humor. We will be searching for the 4 yellow stripes when we hit the road this Summer but maybe can't keep up with your extra horsepower. Keep making videos and we will keep watching. All the best!

Canada looks so pristine from your lens, so beautiful. You two are very entertaining and I love seeing your daily routines and I sincerely hope you always get along as well as you do in your videos, best friends! :) Be safe and keep on living your best lives! I would rather watch your videos than television any day of the week :)

[robertodiazdelpinal]

Great video! You answered questions I didn't even know I had!

[LenaRockinWilliams]

I have been looking at different vans a while now. And this made it so much easier to figure out my wants she needs out of a van. Thank you so much

[bitaszes]

So nice to see a Quebec van life video!
Your video was fun to watch and full of great tips.

[hannahbarton]

Great video! I’ve watched a lot of “what van is right” videos and this is probably the most informational one I’ve seen. Really loved your point about making sure to ask what is right for your situation. Thanks for the info! Just subscribed!

Hi Dom & Marie, this is my first comment in a YouTube video ever! And the reason is because you guys are incredibly funny, natural, and so professional! The way you make the videos, with so much useful content, clear structure, visuals, and those graphs…! (you guys have to tell me which software you use to make those beautiful (minimal) graphics and images from all your videos :) I love your design ideas, tips & tricks. Please keep making videos because after watching so many YouTube channels of van life, just now, after watching yours, I feel like kicking my van project in Europe! Muchas gracias amigos :)

[jean-francoischarron]

Encore super! Merci de votre générosité de partager vos choix et expériences avec nous. J’ai hâte à la semaine prochaine 👌👍

[ultra_daryll]

Love watching you guys! Funny and informational at the same time.

[BarryDuttonSellsHomes]

Super practical video. Humble Road (George) put out a similar video just today about the MB van key differences vs the PM ones like this, and his content is escellent also, esp. since he owns a Pleasureway which is on a MB chassis. Looking forward to finally getting to your next van build explainer/tour videos now!!

[Cbn]
