    2013 ford transit connect or "our minimalist camper"

    I borrowed a friends transit for a few months recently and fell in love with the thing. Been perusing many forums, pics, youtube videos of people converting them into mini campers.A friend of mine even had an article for Motortrend or C&D because he uses his as a motorcycle track day vehicle...

    Cargo van Vs Passenger van as a base? Pros\Cons (Ford Transit Connect)

    Oh I would be making custom window covers, reflectix with black cloth that can be either put in place with either velcro or magnets. But you wouldn't be able to tell unless you came up to the van and peaked in. Wouldn't a commercial looking vehicle, parked in a residential area be looked at...

    Cargo van Vs Passenger van as a base? Pros\Cons (Ford Transit Connect)

    What are your thoughts on the better of the two to start with? Now for me this vehicle will actually be used daily, not sitting in a driveway or garage until it's time to take a trip. It will be parked in NYC, on the street. I'm looking at 1st gen Ford Transit connects. Now in commercial...

    Rollercam straps

    I doubt this has anything to do with a patent or licensing as there have been loop straps available as long as I can remember. Nite Ize used to make a nice set as well.

    Interesting rear door storage ideas (besides tires\fuel cans).

    I'm giving very very serious thought to converting a Ford Transit Connect into a tiny RV. Yes I realize it's small but if you do some googling you can see loads of them out there and there is a surprising amount of room inside for a large single or small double bed plus a little...

    Motorcycle pannier on a rear door?

    An ammo can would be very very heavy and would require a bracket. A light pannier that would not be loaded with anything heavy could be bolted directly to most doors depending on the thickness of the sheetmetal. I would put a large and thick aluminum panel on the other side to spread the load...

    Motorcycle pannier on a rear door?

    The gym bag being tossed in the vehicle would depend on the vehicle. This would be on a ford transit connect in which space is already at a premium. The other door would have a rotopax or two. Inside would be a track bike on the right and a bench\bed on the left. And a super thin cabinet on the...

    Motorcycle pannier on a rear door?

    So I was giving some thought to mounting a GIVI plate and being able to click on and off a 50 liter case to one of the back doors. Doesn't seem as idiotic as some of my other ideas! What say you? Or better yet, just bolt one of my spare Touratech cases to the back of the truck!
