Ep 2: The Man. The Myth. The Brian Furrow

Brian’s connection with the great outdoors began in his childhood, thanks to his father’s ownership of Kings-River Expeditions, a reputable white-water rafting company nestled in the heart of the Central Valley. Raised amidst nature’s bounty, Brian’s love for Fresno and its proximity to breathtaking destinations such as The Sierras, the coast, and the desert only deepened over the years.

Jonny’s first encounter with Brian took place at a sporting-goods store, where he held the position of co-manager alongside Jonny’s cousin. Brian’s profound passion for the outdoors led him to rise to the role of assistant marketing director at China Peak Ski Resort. Fate brought Jonny and Brian back together at the lively “Pray for Snow” party hosted at Sequoia Brewing. During this reunion, Jonny pitched the idea of Brian joining the Field Van team, giving him the opportunity to fully immerse himself in his beloved outdoors.

Brian’s journey at Field Van was not without challenges. While he brought a wealth of outdoor expertise to the table, mastering the art of van builds was a learning curve. Nonetheless, Brian’s determination and dedication paid off, and he quickly transformed into an expert guide, helping customers actualize their dream vans.

Field Van’s influence extends well beyond business hours for Brian. Together with his wife and kids, he embraces the van life wholeheartedly. His van received the nickname “Daddy Van” from his kids. This mobile haven opens doors to exciting destinations that were once thought impossible with young children, like the snowy mountains during winter.

At Field Van, the mission is clear – it’s all about you and your dreams. Whether you are a solo adventurer, a family explorer, or a pet-loving wanderer, Field Van prides itself on creating customized vans tailored to your unique desires and needs.

Brian Furrow’s journey from an outdoor enthusiast to an integral member of the Field Van team is a testament to the power of passion and perseverance. Through his experiences, we witness the boundless possibilities that van life offers, allowing families like Brian’s to embark on unforgettable adventures. So, if you’re seeking to unlock the full potential of your van life dreams, Field Van stands ready to cater to your every desire.
