    8 days with no internet data

    Like Wanderer says, most Mickey D's and Walmarts have free hi speed Wifi. Don't forget Lowes, Home Depot's, libraries also have free wifi. If you dont need data while you drive, you can use the free Wi-Fi to download maps, news, weather, even movie. Once in a blue moon, I buy a new release movie...

    8 days with no internet data

    I use 25 gigs a month just on my phone alone. I do however travel 600-750 miles a day, 5 days a week. So most of my data is eaten up by my phone. It cost me $130 a month for that much data from Verizon. I prefer the mapping software of Google Maps, vs my Rand McNally or Garmin gps units. It...

She just uploaded a new video today, and it appears slab city is still around. I wil be picking up my...

    BobBski's Prep for launch

    Dumpsters are sooo liberating arent they? I filled a smaller dumpster up a few years ago. Didn't realize how much of a slave I was to material things, until I finally did it. Im down to some tools and clothing. What I own is stored between my semi sidebox, and car parked at the terminal. I even...

    How do we ACTUALLY make money!?

    I don't have info on beet hauling in the Midwest. I do know Idaho grows more sugar beets, than the entire mid-west. If Bob will allow me to post one of the bosses cell number, he can answer any questions you may have. I'm not a recruiter, but have always tried to help other fellow drivers. This...

    Tools. Love/Hate relationship

    I've used snapon, and wasnt impressed. A tool that runs 50% more that Wright or 75% more than Wera should perform 50-75% better. Wright is still 100% USA. They have the Wright grip, Snapon has the Flank drive.Worked the same for me. Wera is German designed, made in the CK Republic, with very...

    Why do we live in vans?

    Exactly! Even if you bought a new van at $650 a month, it will be yours in 5 yrs. Paid for, debt free and free to travel the planet, or just chill in a redwood forrest. [emoji41] REVELATIONS 8

    Why do we live in vans?

    This is my explanation, including retirement in 8 yrs. I'll be 50 then. If I buy a SB home at 42, I may never live long enough to pay it off. If it Gods will for me to see 80+, then I'll still be broke from maintaining a constant money pit, and property taxes. Bob is living my vision. Owning...

    Chevy 6.0l vs. Ford 6.8l

    The 6.0 in vans and trucks is a LS based motor. GM took it and re worked it for more torque. . The 6.0 L is a larger truck version of the LS1 found in vettes. Just google LS SWAP, and you will find thousands of pages of good reading. Those LS based motors are kick ass. Hot Rodders put them in...

    The 4x4 conversion to the RV that won't go away.

    Someone told me if I had $10 in my pocket, had a roof over my head, and no debt, I was living better than 80% of the people on the planet. Thats still gonna make a nice base camp. Im gathering the courage to do Slab City for a few weeks in the fall. That would be perfect van for those silt...

    'At Last'

    Good luck. I'm trying to figure out myself, how I will last 15 more yrs behind this wheel. I'll be 56 then. Just as I get discouraged, I Iurk the forum and look for people who are really doing it. Its cool to see the ambition some of these people have here. If I could stomach the idea of...
