i have had this van for several years now been a great van and been very comfortable for 2 people on long road trips. thinking of going back to a camper trailer so I'm putting my van up for sale. I don't really care if anyone buys it or not because i like my van and don't mind keeping it, just...

the wood grain contact paper started to shrink and wrinkle almost right away (well first time the van was left parked outside in the sun and the heat with no one in it and the windows all rolled up.) so that was going to have to go away. i also realized there was no need to have the kitchen...

i have cut rear ac lines on the metal hard line part close to where the split off from the main lines crimped them over and then brazed them before with no issues. system would need to be drained and re charged either way though.

the first trip in the van made it home the morning we were supposed to leave did a quick oil change and grease on the van wired in a house battery and inverter (no pictures was in a rush.) not very neatly installed anyway and still needs to be tidyed up.  set off on our trip in the afternoon...

i tend to flip a few vehicles per year most years. sometimes more sometimes less. there are times i turn down free vehicles that people offer me because they know i like to flip things from time to time. you have to do a little as possible to make to make the flip as nice as possible if your...

my advice would be if your looking to flip a 77 motor home for a profit by fixing it. probably not worth it. if you value your time at all if you turn a profit at all after buying materials to do it nice and right if you don't loose money just on materials your make penny's an hour. just my...

I would say it's not as it's not sold for it's intended use to be potable water however the tank is made of polycarbonate witch should be fine for potable water. Water for drinking use doesn't come from the sink but carry a few gallon bottles of drinking water. I wouldn't personally consume...

take it to a truck wash. they clean out semi trailers with the same wood decking all the time after nasty loads. and the trailers need to be clean and odor free before there next pickup. if there not real bad a scrub brush degreser and a garden hose should clean you up pretty good. any...

good job on passing the majority of your tests. its a lot to learn. you will still be learning a lot for years to come even after you start driving for a company. thetruckersreport.com is a good forum for trucking related topic. i am a member there as well.

yeah i planned a 4x6' bed legnth wise that would fold into a couch. and the kitchen on the opisite side of the van, but when i started laying out where things would go in the van it was a huge space user in that configuration. would have left very little room for cabnets on the other side folded...
