For long, hot showers, I would definitely check into planet fitness. They have many locations. I don't work out. It is still a great deal just for the facilities.

Google foamie travel trailers. Light. Not to hard to build.

Just a few thoughts. Making a pass-through access from the driver seat to the box will be a challenge with a 26 ft Penske truck because the cab and box are not connected. I think there's about a five inch space between them. Not like the smaller van type box trucks. Many of them already have...

I use a Hot Logic. It works great for Stoffers frozen lasagna and canned food like Dinti Moore stew.

I owned a box truck that was converted to a full rv before I bought it, then gutted by me to make a toy hauler and now I live in a full size van. I wish I still had the box van. If I ever found myself financially in a position to do another build, that is the way I would go. Except for the...

Welcome What part of Pennsylvania are you in? I'm in Philly.

Welcome. Coast Guard and Air Force, interesting combination of choices. My dad did the same. I forget which one was first but he was a radio operator, listening to Morse Code eight hours a day. They shipped him off to Alaska. He didn't like it there, so he did his four and got out. After a...

Flight Sims are my passion / addiction. Microsoft Flight Sim X and DCS World are my games. Time really flies, I can easily spend eight to ten hours in front of my computer. Of course that requires using the inverter generator and one gallon of gas. For a quick fix of two to three hours, I can do...

Off the subject, but are you planning on adding more batteries?

Ah, somebody in my neck of the woods. The only state where we refer to it by it's initials, as in " I'm from PA." Never heard that anywhere else. But what do you expect from a place that celebrates a big rodent. :-) Another useless fact. I lived in Vegas for three years and only met one...

I hate the name "solar generator". It doesn't generate anything. It is just an over priced battery/inverter combo. Although not as easy as a flat roof van, I've seen pics online of odd shaped roofs with solar. Either with flexible panels or a mounting system that raises the platform above the...

My two cents, get the biggest thing you can afford and feel comfortable driving. Think about where you want to go and where will you be parking. I don't care what anybody says, you can't have too much room. I am always amazed by people that are living comfortably in an SUV. I have a extended...

I am definitely coming. I missed last year's due to not keeping up on my Forum reading. Not going to happen this time. Even though I have a beautiful view of the river from my regular parking spot, it will be nice to get away from the city. In the area where we will be parking, is tent camping...

I use my phone's data plan and tether it to my computer.
