    2015 Airstream Interstate lounge ext $21,000

    At first I was curious, but then I decided not to waste my time finding out. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. Some want your contact information to sell to others that will play all kinds of games to take your money. Many claim to be military being deployed needing to sell. Divorce...

    Drinking water in Quartzsite and on the road [split] Quartzite question

    There is no Walmart in Quartzsite. First rule is that you will always find an exception to every rule if you look hard enough.

    Where to get drinking water

    I have always had good experiences asking at truck/car (big with easy access and lots of pumps) filling stations. I even found free water and dump in Gila Bend. You just need to look and ask.

    Vandweller Chatroom (Closing)

    I need to upgrade my service to something that won’t kick me off every time I try to post. 10 thumbs don’t help either.

    Are We Crazy?

    Yup. If you want anything to agree with what you are thinking go to Google! The difference in panels is small. When you are running a solar farm that is where you sweat the details.

    You Ain't Right Club

    All the years that we camped there they were the best neighbors. Organized just enough that there was no trouble. Clean campsites, everyone waved. Who cares if someone hates to wear britches. Nobody is being threatened if they don’t undress. My only personal objection was when the guy was...

    You Ain't Right Club

    ...it is not as if anything realy worth talking about happens in YARC camp. Old people sitting around in lawn chairs. The most frequent sign of life is people taking their dogs on a short walk. Keep telling everyone that

    Hello from SW Missouri

    Welcome NAL. The quickest conversation of a van that I have seen included a couple rolls of limo window tint, a foam pad, sleeping bag and ice chest. Everything else was done on the road. Having electricity available makes it easier.

    Sealing up floor holes.

    JB Weld. Clean it well and mix up the two part filler. Once the holes are sealed then you can paint and insulate.

    Slime in my drinking water!! FROM WHAT???

I asked the veterinarian about that and was told that the algae was a natural disinfectant. They feed off of the bacteria and the water closest to the algae was the...

    Are We Crazy?

    Polycrystalline panels. Not monochrystaline. They absorb power better on hazy and partially cloudy days. Research Air Conditioners. There are new units on the market that can fit any space useage. If you are planning on working out of your living situation, check out the floor plans on...

    Just arrived Q today — love to meet some of you ASAP!

    We are the ones on the other forum that have low tolerance for bad advice and commercials. We ain’t right and proudly have a STINKIN BADGE to prove it. Do a site search for YARC and be careful about drinking. People have been known to spray the screen from laughter. The YARC club covers two...

    Visible Party Pay

    I believe that they use the cheaper phone as a hotspot and boost the power that way?   I am guessing?

    GIve Suggestions To Lift Up Bed Frame?

    Apparently weight is not an issue in your rig.  Linear actuator. They use them on solar panels and hospital beds.  Not quick, but safe.

    Swivel seat in Chevy Express

    I converted a captain’s chair into my passenger seat. I had to off set it slightly so it would fit. Look into a wreaking yard for parts instead of high dollar on line specialty shops.

    My diabetes doctor offered me a on line session, but I have to be in the state of Tennessee for that    Research. The laws are strange.
