It’s a RAM ProMaster cargo van conversion.
It’s a very well-thought-out van conversion, too.
She’s even got her files in an easy-to-access place.
It’s home!
And it’s on wheels. 🙂

One of the nicer looking van layouts I have seen. Good for her!
Way to go Ruth, as a sister I love this idea…you go girl……………………
Love it! Gives this 67 year old youngster some hope for the future… Just have to divorce myself of a life of accumulating.
I hope to be like Ruth when I grow up! She’s a fantastic role model for us all….
I love This! I’m curious approx. how much did it cost to have this built? it’s beautiful!
It’s beautiful but I myself could not imagine living anywhere if I don’t have my own bathroom. To me it’s as important as my microwave 🙃
At 72 I have been looking at the small buses used for transport at the local health dept.( sethra call and ride) slightly larger than a van and actually easier to change into a home and room for a compost toilet as I too have to have that in my home.
Loved the video and Ruth! She is very inspiring!
Ruth is such a inspiration , She is my kind of people. Watch her on YouTube. That’s where I first came across this awesome women.
Love it!!!!💚 Ruth rocks & the van is totally awesome!
Great design and nice lady! Lol
Stunning van!!! The thought that went into this is pure genius. Kudos young lady
Like your Van Home. I recently right-sized outside of the city, to the country in an area near a park and greenbelt. I had though to go on develop some of the property with tiny cabins, but how can I make it work for Van Homes like yours? Aside from electric, what could I add? Maybe outdoor kitchen, patio, grill, picnic area, sports area, putting green, laundry/bath house. Would others come and stay for seasonal trips? Scenic lake views, what makes a stop appealing?
Who built Ruth’s RV. I love it
Who built this for her? Love the layout and quality of work. Please e-mail me with builder’s name and address. Thank you! Ruth is adorable!
Check the youtube video, in the video description they provide her email to ask for details about her builder…
I am 74 and if I were still capable, I would love to join you (in my own van, of course), but alas, I will have to live vicariously through you! Love your layout. Only thing I would do differently is add shower capability (with a portable shower pan as I have seen in other vans — take no real floor space, except while in use). Love your design, and wish you the best!
