Low cost older vans are likely in need of lots and lots of money and repairs. A new Class B runs around $70k and up (and up and up). If you buy one for $3k so you can stand up buy it knowing you at least have a good house you can build up but be sure to have the funds so it drives you where...

Hubby (Wayne) found the info: Joe Burkley Behling Insurance office 801.465.4893 He has a cell # but I left it off here as I'm sure he can be reached via the office #. Thanks all! This was a good discussion and I hope others got something out of it. As for the cargo to RV - I got the idea...

We can't find Bob's video but this is it uploaded by RockingB who was the insurance agent Bob interviewed. Very informative. Christine

I am glad we tried at least to find Bob's version. Maybe he took it down so RockingB's would come up on searches. Regardless, it's very informative.

Wagoneer: I like the "I'm safe in my environment" attitude. I pretty much go with that but in this case at ages 67 and 68 I'd rather have the check if needed. Christine

Matlock:  The requirements are in order to get coverage for personal belongings inside the trailer. Christine

Bullfrog:  I am 67.  When I was 17 I started planning to go fulltme, not because of any housing costs, etc. as I was too young to care about such things or know what was in the future.  The reason was I LOVE TO CAMP.  Now, back then, internet did not exist and there were not the options...

Bullfrog: The trick here is we WILL be living in it. It will have a lot of investment built into it, the refrig alone was around $1K. After we are on the road for about 3 months I hope to add up all of the receipts I have that I have not yet lost or the new dog eaten. So in order to be...

High Desert:  Yes, that's the one I watched but since this is Bob's list I was trying to find Bob's video to post the link here.  That is the same video uploaded by RockingB.

Perhaps go to your credit card recipts and give him a total for the last several months. Tell him if he stops watching the channel for those same # of months he can have the equivalent in cash to buy what he wants provided it isn't from the internet. If you are going to eventually van or RV...

Don't know what kind of vehicle you are talking about. If the walls are straight like our cargo trailer we added thin primed then painted wood over the insulation and walls that came with. We were going for the most insulation we could get and have a good deal of cargo weight available. If...

I mentioned in a previous post I saw Bob's video interviewing RockingB and as a result we are redesigning the trailer even though we are in late stages of completing it (insert profanity). The 4 things required for it to be registered as an RV: 1.  Built In Refrigerator (we already had that, a...

Bob Wells did a video with RockingB which brought up several issues about insurance.  For us the video was just in time but has caused major changes since viewing it recently but that's for another time.  I am making the changes required and mentioned for getting the cargo van registered as an...

I guess it's time I leave the board for awhile. The above post appears that I did something wrong without accurately telling us what the problem is. I am not open to that kind of prosecution.

The site looks so nice. You all have done a really fantastic job pulling this together. I'm sure Bob's been dreaming of this most of his nomad days and it is probably hard to believe it's really now a reality, the Caravans, all of it.

We still have about 7 weeks to go but the new camper topper is on and insulated so I was able to pack the storage items in it that we want to take.  I did it in one day.  And six months. Explaination:  We had the rubber truck bed floor map,which follows the outline of the truck bed complete...

I kept my current phone and plan one more month so I could dive into this deeper. So that Visible plan with Verizon looks like everythingone could want? I can upload videos unlimited and download them, is that what I am reading?

I threw away the can, sorry. It was my first time using that pepper sauce. It was good. I remember it was a small red and white can. I didn't get the video up yet for the wood burning stove - our topper came in for the pickup. Today I finished insulating the pickup bed with reflectix and...

I will show you all a huge twist on the whole thing. I'm waiting for 25 pounds to come in at the meat market and then I'll render it.

Beef suet, rendered properly is like white butter. It has a high smoke point. It has a texture unlike other fat. In old times past it was used to make puddings. In older than that times it was used to make pemmican, a mixture of suet, dried meat and berries that got the Indians through cold...
