Hi Brian, and welcome. Glad to have ya here.

Bri, I have driven many mid size Isuzu and Iveco trucks, usually with dump beds or flat beds. They would make a great build platform, with only parts costs and availability being a drawback. That and George J Mechanic saying " we-hell, I ain't never seen one of these befer" . Other than that...

And, not to be arguementitive, Why do some people choose a 20 yo van to convert themselves while others buy a $70,000 Roadtrek ot Pleasure way. Im just guessing, havent taken the time to research them all, but for round numbers sake- Engle fridge -600 3 burner stove top 400 Furnace 1000 water...

I have a full set of HF panels on my roof. No problems so far, and for $149 for panels, controller and all wiring, not a bad deal at all. It works well, and if you get the extended warrenty, you can WALK IN to any HF in the country and get a replacement. Someone on here has 3 sets that he has...

Hi free mind, I want to say that my mid sized 12 v cooler by koolatron pulls about 8 amps an hour, so rather power hungry. Even my older Domestic three way fridge pulls 7 or so on 12v mode. If you can afford the +/- $500 for a new Waco, Engle or Domestic 12 v compressor fridge, that's the way...

Dazzer, yup here too. a drive down the road goes like this .... mobile home, mobile home , modest house, tin shack, 3/4 million dollar house, mobile home mobile home...lather, rinse, repeat.

Hi and welcome, Dazzlecat!

No snow in the pic to try and make me homesick? The body looks awesome from what i can see, really great shape for a northern van of that age.

huh, nice find, all you need is a bed and some clothes and a little food. Could have been in Ga powers insurance claims and disability department, cause NOBODY steals power or defaces or damages equiment....

Hey Guy, welcome to the forum. Sounds like you have a great rig to start off in, many here are or will be jealous! Hope to hear of your travels and see pics of you and the rig in action.

Awesome She! Now clean that sucker out and lets go campin'!!

kwest , my bus is a gm gas 350 v8 with low gearing. 13.5 mpg on the highway @62 mph is the best ive gotten. I just had a major tune up and oil change, so it may go up slightly. A friend has a 95 20' airport transporter with the fiberglass body and 7.3 turbo diesel. He claims to get 17-18 mpg (...

lower mileage is preferable, to a point. You dont necessarily want one that has sat unused for long periods, but light use over the years is fine, even an advantage. Who is selling it ( ie- what was it used for, how well was it maintained, etc) . It looks to be in fine shape, and with a little...

I Just saw an early 90's ex ambulance chevy with all white paint and lights pulling a grey 5x8 cargo trailer on I24 west near Lookout valley. Tried to get a pic, but couldnt. Anyone we know? Looked like a nice rig/setup.

someone on one of the forums i visit ( sorry, cant remember who) bought one brand new, and only kept it a year. I remember him saying he got about 13 mpg with it. It came with a built in 400 w inverter, if that helps make up the payment.... my 04 F150 x cab with v6 gets 20 mpg on the highway...

yeah, im not quite sure what to make of it myself. Even tbough, as a builder, I have made a nice , cozy 16x20 cabin for someone, it WAS on the same property as the main house. I cant POSSIBLY see fifty grand to PLAN the septic- the gorgeous cabin i built cost 27 grand, EVERYTHING included...
