I started out following general RV and van stuff like Gone with the Wynns, Long Long Honeymoon, We're the Russos and CheapRVLiving. But the nature of YouTube is you find hidden gems and wacky stuff. That's stuff I like to follow now.
Here are a few I found that I enjoy.
Sofabike This is a really wacky guy who I found by searching for a video of the underside of a Promaster. He's a diver and bike racer and welder and all around wild and crazy guy. I believe he's Russian. He's hard to understand sometimes because of his accent.
He's done some modifications to his PM. Some sort of underbody insulation/undercoat that he periodically posts videos of the underside to show its progress.

He's also reinforced his roof somehow and he posts videos of himself and others walking on it.

Then there's Brad Herder
He's a mountain biker who has a Promaster, who posts van videos between biking videos and other stuff. What I like about him is he's sort of an Everyman who isn't afraid to show his mistakes and struggles with his build. Might even follow this forum for all I know.
Here's a couple videos:

Then there's Solid Wood Worx. This is a professional conversion guy who posts his work on various vans and general tips.

And finally there's Van Tourist. He's a Russian guy with a Sprinter who has some nice ideas and videos. He's not afraid to make a few mistakes and is light hearted and easy to watch.

Here's one even RD would watch

I'm curious to see who other people follow, or if you've found some of the same posts.
