Good Luck!! Hope it works out for ya :)

Good to know thanks!

Some of the used camper vans I've been looking at have non working rooftop ac/heaters. Couldn't I just remove the ac/heater and patch up the hole or put in a vent? What type of material would I use to cover the big hole? I'm new to making rv repairs so any tips and help is welcome :)...

Well... After my last visit with my Physical Therapist for my back issue, guess living in a truck was wishful thinking! Any stooping, crouching, bending over, sitting or standing, jumping off the back of a truck or climbing back in, could trigger my injury at anytime. And repeated strain or...

Received an email from SS about my question on RV living and using a p.o box, mail forwarding etc...... This was their response... SMH!! Anyway... :P "Thank you for contacting the Social Security Administration. We apologize for the delay in answering your inquiry. We regret any inconvenience...

Different states have different income requirements. In MI a single person with Zero income gets less than 200$ a month, with kids it's more of course. If you do have an income, it drops significantly, I'm on disability and get $15 a month, and yes indeedy I spend it every month and not ashamed...

I think raising your kids in this lifestyle would be fantastic! Even if the time is limited, giving them the experience would be priceless. I happened to watch an older documentary this weekend called Arctic Son. A family moved to the Arctic with their young son in an off grid cabin for a year...

I plan on staying mostly on public land and ocassionally at National Parks because of the Access Pass I have. I'm not really worried about having to leave in the middle of the night if there are some creepy people around only because I'll be traveling with a 90lb rott/pit mix (yes It might be a...

After my van crapped out on me last summer and making the HUGE mistake of not having enough emergency fund money, I've decided that getting a Ford Ranger or S10 truck is going to be my new way of living! Anyone else out there going this route? Mainly because of the gas mileage and having 4wd...

I've been kinda following this topic since I'm also on SS Disability. Still saving for a vehicle.... So...thought I'd shoot over an email to the social security disability people in their contact question section. Not sure if anyone else has done this but I'll post if they write me back!

I would like to try something smaller too, guess I'll do some more investigating :) Looking forward to Bob's review on these items , thanks!

Has anyone ever tried these items? I've been checking out a few different brands and found that Augason Farms on Walmart.com seems to be economical and a bit healthier than other brands. thanks:) http://www.walmart.com/ip/Augason-Farms-Emergency-Food-Vegetable-Stew-Mix-2-lb/21777152

Bosco loves his new dog bed :P And... today is national love your pet day? ha! Shhhh... he doesn't need an excuse for more treats!

We have a kerosene heater for emergencies only. And I mean no heat in winter for more than 10hrs because the fumes are horrible! I would not recommend using a kerosene heater in a vehicle ever. Very dangerous

I would think if you used your parents address, and sent the money info in when the letter came in the mail, ss wouldn't know.

something positive...I am warm in this cold weather!! Parents letting me stay at their house to save for another van in the spring. Things could be much worse, I feel so bad for the homeless people downtown in this cold weather

I've been on disability for 5yrs now and moved twice. I thought I changed my address with them but I only changed my forwarding address. When I called to change it back, man the lady was pissed! She started threatening me about how I broke the law because I have to notify them every time I move...

Try a short trip, go camping for a week.  See how you like it and what your needs are. I started off this way and realized that some things were necessary like a port o potty, and some weren't, like having a tv.  Maybe a travel trailer might be too much, and a van would fit better for...
