Every town in the US has school busses and any place that works on busses can work on step vans. They use many of the same parts and they have the equipment to easily handle their size.

I completely agree! I went to the 2019 RTR expecting to have settled on a cargo van conversion and left there settled on a step van instead. I think step vans are the most overlooked conversion platform, especially for a solo traveler.  When you take the wall out between the cab and box, you...

The difference is that I understand the terminology and units being used in my solar system, not so much in computing systems. I've been told that I need at least 8GB of ram for Windows 10 and any of its future upgrades. I have no idea if that's right. I don't run any special software, no video...

I have plenty of room and power in my converted step van, I'll be using a 42" TV for my computer screen with a wireless keyboard and mouse. A compact desktop computer seems the right thing for this arraangement but I'm not a computer expert. If you have any insight on the linked computer or ones...

I'm looking at mini desktop computers like the one linked below. Does anyone have any experience with this type of computer or have a better suggestion for computers? (I don't want a laptop or tablet) Thanks...

A $500 inverter generator makes more sense to me for those days. But I do see your point.

The big advantages of lithium are how fast they charge and the number of charge cycles they have. My electrical needs add up to 1500 watt hours, which most people would round up and get 2 batteries, but with lithium batteries, I'll have the battery charged by noon and be running off solar the...

I have the regular sized Prius and have camped out it several times. I'm 6'-1" and easily fit without taking out any seats. Slide both front seats forward, put a box or storage tubs in the footwell and lay out your mattress. I also bring a tent. The tent is the living room and the car is my...

Welcome! You might consider going to the anual RTR in January, you can tour virtually every option thinkable. Youtube video tours are OK, but real life tours are the best. So many of the youtubers use wide angle lenses that make the interiors look bigger than they actually are. I went this past...

Great tip! I posted in a FB Schoolie page and got some great information. Thanks

It's an international, t444e. if that tells you anything. 

I'm looking at a 2001 international step van with a 7.3 liter v8 turbo diesel international, t444e and automatic transmission. 87,000 miles. Is this a good Engine? I have no experience with it?

  I posted basically the same question on Amazon and got these responses.    Mine is hooked up to ethernet, but it does have wifi built in so why not? Arashshd answered • 1 hr I use it in Truck. Yes Have wireless connectivity (Dual band Wifi, and Bluetooth 4.2), to connect your hot spot and...

I'm looking for a small in size desktop computer that can pick up wifi that will send a HDMI cable to my large screen tv. As far as I know, a laptop is the wrong thing for that. This is not the only one of it's kind, there are many others more capable. In the reviews, people are sending the...

If I understand this product correctly it is a tiny desktop computer that can receive the internet through a wifi hotspot. I can be tucked away anywhere and I can use the wireless keyboard, mouse and big screen tv that I already have. Do I have this right? Seems like a great option for RVers.  ...

I tried these for the first time yesterday and it was very good. I used chicken broth for the liquid and I think that really did well. Thanks for sharing this find!

You know they aren't serious when they reject the only energy source that could actually do what they want. Advanced nuclear which is less than 10 years away and could be much quicker if they advocated it.

It eliminates all fossil fuel use within 10 years, so unless you are boondocking on a bicycle or electric RV, you're grounded. Would also eliminate propane as well.

Will the green New deal end the boondockers way of life?

Thanks, I didn't do the second conversion, 30 seemed really low.
