About the Engineers who Van Life

We are glad you are here! We are Colby and Eric, more commonly known as The Engineers who Van Life.  We are remote engineers who lived full time van life for almost 3 years in 2 different self converted camper vans. Now, we do part time van life so that we can spend more time in our shop helping others complete their van builds.

We began sharing our DIY van building guides after our first camper van conversion and immediately fell in love with the process of helping other DIY-ers think critically about their van conversions and build for longevity.  Eventually, we began offering 1:1 Virtual DIY Van Build Consulting as well.

Now, we are prepping for our THIRD DIY camper van conversion: a 2024 Transit Trail that will begin summer of 2024.  We can’t wait to bring you along!

Engineers who Van Life, full time engineers on the road.
