This was one of my first ideas. Bed along drivers side, head facing to front of van. From waist forward, 45 degree slope (like to top of drivers seat). This gives full shelving above bed from feet to waist, with triangle shaped storage from waist to head, giving room to sit up. Just a lot of...

Just for the extreme side, my old dark blue focus got up to 150-160F in direct sunlight during the summer in southern AZ. <br /><br />As someone that spends even 1 day in the desert, only light colored vehicles for me.

my current, untested (in the wild), plan is to keep my no-contract t-mobile $30/mo cell, and use free wifi spots for laptop and tablet. Cell is unlimited data (first 5GB is 4g) for email and light internet, and anything more I can find a bookstore, fast food, or coffe shop to use. I can add...

this is the main drawback, $2-4 per use for the prepackaged convenience if you cant get those online prices.

Been using MSE here for a few years now, zero issues with it, I can't even tell it's running even on my super low power machines. Free, wins awards, backed by Microsoft, can't go wrong.

I lived in Bothell for a few months last year (in an apartment), but youtuber Kyle Pounds has a video <a href="">here</a> where he shows the neighborhood where he stayed and the Woodinville B&amp;N, but I don't know how long he stayed in that area.

When the bed is folded up, to you stack things in front of it to use that space? My thoughts are more towards something like a bunkbed in a small apartment, sleeping on the top bunk, and the space beneath it for storage or desk/workstation. But reversed for the van. I'm past the point of...

Any ideas or pictures of how to utilize space above a bed? I am still trying to plan the interior of my van, and the amount of wasted space above the bed has been nagging me. I have thought of things like soft sided bags hanging from the wall/top, that can be moved elsewhere when the bed needs...

What are you going to power with that?

Some of the 12v top loading fridges are marketed more towards overland and offroad travel, so they start going against the cheap way of life, but ARB, National Luna, Engel make well built, efficient 12/120v fridges.

One option is either buy a van already converted to 4x4, or convert the van you buy. There are a few kits and lots of information on the process if you have the money. You will lose some stealth, however a few government agencies and utility companies had 4x4 vans in their fleet.

All the programs I used were free save for AnyDVD HD. This is the tool that used for ripping blu-ray to the hard drive. Once it is on the hard drive I used ripbot264 (free) to encode it into a smaller file. Handbrake should be able to handle everything on it's own, PM me if you have any...

Handbrake is probably the easiest to use for getting a DVD to a movie file on your computer. Unfortunately for blu-ray there is no one-step application, when I was doing this for my library to had to rip the blu-ray to your hard drive, and then use an app to convert that rip to a movie file. The...

<br><br>In my residential neighborhood with HOA/etc, my plain white cargo van is one of 8-10. There are more cargo vans than conversion vans even. One is even an undercover sheriff vehicle <img src="https://vanlivingforum.com/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" align="absmiddle"...

This is one of my concerns as well, with a cargo van. If it's just a blank van, they assume it has some sort of tools, and a smash and grab is worth the chance. One idea that I'm working on refining is making the van look more like a mobile pet grooming vehicle, or something else low budget...

I'm still in the planning stages, but my base vehicle is a 1997 E350 cargo van 7.3 diesel with 61k miles.
