We just got to the holtville hot spring today, plan to be here a week or two if anyone wants to hang out with us.

So we left Las Vegas, New Mexico on Tuesday morning, ran the furnace most of the night until  the propane ran out. Make our way to some blm land about 200 miles away, stopped on the way to swap the tank. Upon setting up the trailer and turning the gas back on, the wife noticed she could smell...

2000 ford E150 5.4L V8 Just want to see if this might be nothing more than a vehicle aging, or if its about to have a serious problem. Yesterday for the first time, the van wouldn't turn over, just acted like it wanted to. I panicked because I'm not mechanically inclined at all. So eventually...

After browsing youtube this morning, I watched bobs recent video for Christmas Day. And for some reason, I just couldn't resist reading the comments. Plenty of positive, but I just couldn't understand the negative. One click lead to another and I found myself just feeling disgusted at other...

So I've been putting off on the trailer brake controller for awhile, which I know isn't smart, since I'm pulling about 2800lbs. Was about to pull the trigger on one yesterday while at camping world. There was one about $69, and on the package it says quick connect easy install. So I asked a guy...

So since we have had the trailer, we haven't really gotten a chance too boondock with it yet, and have been plugged into 30amp at an rv park for 2 1/2 months now. We get back to traveling end of December, and def won't be plug into to shore power for a good while I hope. What is your process...

Anyone here that owns a C-Head composting toilet have any tips for preventing caking buildup in the urine diverter, or good chemicals for removing it? It seems like every time we clean it, we have to scrub with a brush, and we clean it enough to where you'd think it wouldn't be an issue, I'm...

You ever just get responses that just blow your mind and make you wonder what someone is thinking? lol We are currently in Colorado Springs, at an RV park. Its a nice little community, and the word has gotten around that we are leaving end of December. So people ask where we are going. We...

In our trailer, the shower doesn't have a tub surround, it's just the same as all the walls through out the trailer. Why do they do this?? Im assuming its not water proof. There's no way you wouldn't get the walls wet, unless you sat down in the tub, which who would expect people who are going...

Saw this at wal mart yesterday.. clearly a toy of a guy living in a van.. don’t know the background of it or what it’s from.. but funny lol

I finally pulled the trigger and have gotten into mountain biking this year, just as I figured I love it. Now I’d like to find more people who live on the road to ride some of the more technical trails with, as the wife can’t tackel those. Also does anyone know if there might be any trails in...

So I've noticed this before, back when I first hit the road driving through the blue ridge mountains. When accelerating up hills the ac would cut out, and if I let off the gas a little bit it would come back. I noticed this yesterday when I took the trailer out for the first time. Why would the...

Been doing some research but I'd also like to get input here hoping maybe there are some people who have been in my boat. The 2000 ford E150 5.4l v8 that I have and will be using as a tow vehicle feels like it could use more power, I fear once I get out west climbing big mountains it will be an...

So I bought this trailer the other day, and noticed these weird plumbing looking inputs, I asked the guy and he said he had no idea what they are, and there's nothing connected to them, so I have no idea what they could be, just wanted to post to see if anyone's on here had any possible theories

I went to look at a travel trailer that I really like, to find out the the fridge is electric only. Salesman of course doesn't know the amperage draw, because he's a salesman. He said he's gonna look into it, as I said I would do the same, having trouble finding any information tho. The trailer...

So while trying to get to Colorado Springs, some serious snow hit the high elevation areas. Instead of just waiting, we decided to make our way through wolf creek pass, with weather warnings and what not.. It was pretty serious.. The ole e150 managed to make it through the 45 miles of snow...

This dometic Cfx65dz is starting to be a pain in the ass. I can't get the temperature to go below 35, and sometimes the temp will raise, then go down only a couple degrees many hours later. Example. Yesterday I woke up and it was at 35, then it managed to climb all the way to 39, while not...

I'm in Austin, and the sun started going down.. And for the life of me I couldn't figure out why the heck it was so hot in my van. Once the sun was gone and I was still sweating I figured welp here's global warming, time to die. Then I just happen to look at my bottom sliding Windows, I have a...

Sorry if this sounds stupid.. But I'm really stupid.  So I sprayed my back windows with flat black the other day. I had met a couple van dwellers in Panama City beach named Marshall and ally, who had done this and it looked really good. So I did the back windows and then I remembered something...

I've been in Houston for about 2 hours and I'm def not staying, too damn big and busy..  Everyone I've ever spoken too has to me to go to Austin? Would anyone here recommend it?
