Sigh! That's rough

The difficulty is my worrying about my dog in the vehicle. I can't not have some kind of system in place. Not that I'll use it consistently, but I most definately need it, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't want the electricity for vain purposes such as a blow dryer, although I'm pretty sure...

I've seen inverters online that come with batteries/charging unit. So the way it works is.. as the car is running, it charges the batteries, and then the inverter converts that energy to A/C? Is that right? Do you have any suggestions or know of anywhere I can find an all inclusive package...

Hi all! I just want to start off by saying how awesome you all are. I recently got my van and without some of your advice I would have been so overwhelmed! Sooo. I'm trying to get power hooked up in my van. I have absolutely no electrical knowledge, and my Google searches have helped a little...

Omg!! Awesome. Thanks everyone!

Hi all! I just purchased my future home [emoji2] It is completely bare on the inside, so my boyfriend and I are đoing everything from scratch. He's handy with wood working and building, so we are comfortable on that front, but both completely lost as it comes to electricity. We have a dog...

I'm overwhelmed with all the helpfulness on this forum. A community that really seems to stick together although far apart! Very heartwarming. Thanks for all the ideas, I'm going to the drawing board and will update as I go :)

That's actually extremely helpful! You read my mind!

I love that one! I definately have some research to do.

It looks like my unconventional dream is coming true. This is an old red cross disaster relief vehicle. So hard to find a cheap, high-top van with low miles! My lease ends in September and I move in full-time then. Until then... let the renovations begin! Anybody have advice on an easy method...

Wow thank you so much! Very helpful

Im looking to spend 10-13 k on a vehicle, another 2k on repairs, and hopefully 1k in emergency fund.

Been browsing for my future home :) As I'm looking it's hard for me to decide which is best, or to envision the inside being completely changed. Which vehicle is best for reliability, space, and stealth all together in your opinion??

Wow I couldn't agree more .. Ive always felt like ive had different values than most people too. Material items and job titles aren't that important to me and when I can do the things I truly love to do (travel, new experiences, new friends) for significantly cheaper than any person could living...

Well I think it's great (clearly) and best of luck to you!

That bed idea is AWESOME! Send me updates as you go!!

Amazing read!! So good to see other people in my age bracket. My friends think I'm crazy! I relate with your post so much!

I truly appreciate it I am going to have so many questions!!

Luckily my dad is an engineer and being very supportive. Without an actual van yet we only have a rpuch plan, but we are thinking of making a bed with storage underneath that turns into a futon-mattress. He will build some sort of shelving storage unit as well. We are going to get solar panels...

What is your general strategy once you start? Im planning on staying in large cultural hubs and staying for a month or two, get an easy serving job just to get by.
