Thank you, guys. I got the van (talk about nerves) and I have my body guy helping me figure out windows. I plan to add the rear cargo windows and the passenger sliding door window. Not essential, maybe, but this will make driving easier for me, and hey, I want the light. Now all the rest of...

I have a chance to get a late model Ford Transit cargo van at a very good price, due to hail damage. But it has no rear windows, and the real appeal of the Transit (beside height) is the great visibility and light. Can you add windows to the rear doors aftermarket? Can you replace the rear...

What should go in first, ceiling insulation and ceiling, or the fantastic fan?

Ahh, Sternwake, no free lunch, I see...Well, I know the answer is to have someone take a look, and I will try to do that monday. Thanks for the rundown. PJ

This van has 150K miles. The engine sounds good, no leaks that I can see, but the steering is not very tight...a great deal of play in the steering wheel, and to me, it feels a little "drifty" when I drive it. I didn't want to take it over about 45, but I am a very timid old lady driver. What...

It has to be said...."View from the LOO".... PJ

Bob, I just wanted to weigh in because I have lived in New Mexico 15 years, and have only last year attended the Balloon Fiesta. I considered it a "once in a lifetime" event for me. Well worth it ONCE to stand on the launch field, and experience the wonder of the balloons rising up all...

Moderator, I would click you twice if I could :) PJ

re the seminar schedule, I am not coming up with anything as I search the forum for a post on this. Could someone point me in the right direction? tnx PJ

Bob, in general, when are the bulk of the seminars held? If we cant make it for the entire RTR? PJ

I think the hesitation is around getting the right set up. See, your post is a good example...2 ppl in a van is pretty tight, huh? (I definitely have the van fantasy). I guess the hope is that talking to folks, maybe seeing their set up, will clarify some things like that. We are considering...

So, it's fall and all of a sudden, there are used vans, used campers, and an opportunity to finally get a vehicle. I am ready to pull the trigger, but my partner says, no, wait til after the RTR in January. Arrgh! We will probably be there in a tent, or maybe if I can swing it, a rented...

I would like to read the Harper's story but you have to be a subscriber. Anyone have a link to the full story? PJ

Hi all, I had intended to come last year, but it didn't happen. Last October I ran into a guy and his wife at the local Denny's here in Roswell, and they were headed to Quartzite. We talked for maybe 5 minutes, and he told me where they set up on Kuhn (spelling???) Street as sunglass vendors...

Bindi&us, What do you mean to use conduit to raise the bed? Am having a hard time pulling up the visual :) I think the bed frame is a super idea, but it is too short... PJ
