    The mobile mentality

    This set up is awesome.  Been using it since I started my vandwelling life 9 months ago, on January 1, 2017.

    Women Only: Washing

    I use a weed sprayer with a converted kitchen sprayer attached. Awesome! Found it on youtube. Easy to make and use.

    Women Only: Connecting with others while on the road

    Hey all you awesome women out there on the road!  I want to meet you!  lol  I have been living out of my Ram Promaster for 9 months now.  I'm currently on the road in the Yosemite area but will be travelling on south as I go.  I'm planning on going to the RTR in Jan. 2018 and hoping to meet many...

    Ventilation

    Oh this looks interesting and promising.  Thank you.  I will definitely look into this.

    Here is one of the roof rack - unfortunately the 'open' area on the roof does not coincide with a space on the inside.  There is a rib on the inside so no can do. Hope this pic shows.  Wasn't entirely sure I attached it correctly.

    Ventilation

    Yeah, I'm not keen on putting multiple holes in my roof.  So, wondering if there is an effective way to move air with just one or two interior fans and maybe putting in two vents http://store.stepvanparts.com/SIDE-VENTS-STEPVAN.HTM in the upper portions of my rear doors, and purchasing some...

    Hi Everyone - So I've come up against a problem.  My Dodge ProMaster came with a roof rack, that now has my solar panels attached to it - in other words - it's not coming off.  My problem is that there is no open area within the structure of the roof rack where I can fit a Fantastic Fan.  Yikes...

    OK, thanks.  I'll look into that.

    Filling Van Cavities in the Ribs

    Thanks for the responses.  I probably was not clear now that I look back and see the responses.  lol  My floor is in so it isn't the floor 'cavities' I'm referring to.  I'm wondering about the openings that run along both sides of the ProMaster at the bottom.  They are quite deep and there is...

    Filling Van Cavities in the Ribs

    Help!  And thank you.  I have a Dodge Promaster high top.  There are lots of open cavities in the ribs and along the floor - big ones along the floor.  Wondering what I might fill them with - and why they are there along the floor.  I do not want to block something I'm unaware of. I will not...

    Ultra soft denim radiant barrier and sound damper

    I chose it over Reflectix because I was looking for something to attach directly to the interior van wall.  I thought this would do the trick.  But now I'm thinking that I may still need to maybe add reflectix to the inside of the paneling in order to create that Air Gap necessary to keep the...

    Ultra soft denim radiant barrier and sound damper

    I know that 'insulation' conversation has been beaten to death but I still have a question!  lol  I'm planning on using Ultra Soft Denim Radiant barrier in my van.  I've seen it used on youtube with the 'shiny' side directly against the van wall.  NO AIR GAP!  Doesn't this still require an air...

    OMG I think I might actually be doing this . . .

    Well, I'm kind of a 'dive-in' sort, so my thought is to move out of my small rented condo and just go for it.  I figure I can always go back to stick built if I want to.  My current car is too small for me to 'try' it in.  But wow, I'm having a hard time finding the van I want.  Anyway, I'm...

    High top or not?

    Not great for gas mileage or city parking, is my thought on a box van.  I was  just looking at the cost of putting a high top on a van - kind of pricey!

    High top or not?

    Hey folks, I've come to the conclusion that one of the 'issues' that is stopping me from moving forward is the indecision about whether to purchase a high top van or go with a standard van (then if I wanted to put a high top on it later I could).  This all effects how I would incorporate solar...

    OMG I think I might actually be doing this . . .

    Hi Brad, thanks for the welcome.  I have read all about the RTR.  I'm looking at coming to the 2017 RTR.  Hopefully, meet some folks and get acquainted.

    OMG I think I might actually be doing this . . .

    Hi Jeri Lynn,  End up?  I don't know.  lol  First, I feel like I have to get 'started'.  I love Bellingham and this is where my family (kids/granddaughters) are, so it would be nice to spend the summers here.  Otherwise, I'd like to travel a bit and meet some folks I could caravan with as well...

    OMG I think I might actually be doing this . . .

    LOL, I would love to be 'found'!  I'm on the search for a good van right now.  I go from being terrified to being curious and excited.
