I bought a new 2016 Sprinter. I went with the 2500 170. I figured it would be plenty of space for my build, and it was...sort of. WEIGHT is a bigger issue than space!!! I just sold my brand new 2500 Sprinter and now I'm buying a 3500. If you want to do a very basic build, then a 2500 is just...

I also wanted to learn solar. So I got a job with AM Solar. Good people!

I just bought my Sprinter van and starting to do the conversion. I was looking at what fridge I wanted and saw that most of the good ones, according to amazon and people on this forum recommend the ones that open and close from the top instead of the traditional ones that open from the side. Are...

Is there an app (android) or website that you can save all the places in the states you want to go. Example, someone names a place and you want to go to that place in the near future. You could save that place onto google maps along with all the other places you want to go. Then you could see a...

Anyone have a mail forwarder in Florida? If so how much does it cost and how do you like it?

State Farm would not insure it soon as they deemed it a "recreational vehicle" . GEICO would not insure it cause it would be my only vehicle (own a motorcycle too but that does not count, has to be a car). End up insuring it with Progressive. Full replacement value up to $80K (that includes...

Yes I will be a Full Timer. Thanks for all the good info.

I will be registering it in Florida.

About to buy my Sprinter Van, currently stock, but will be converted to an RV. When register it with the DMV and my insurance company do I still just register it as van or as an RV?

@arctic cat: And you play that part so well. Did not think of that, thank you. Would hate to have all that counter space and not be able to put a hot pan on it. And I don't want to have to worry about heat pads to keep from burning/melting it. Now I'm a bit stumped again as to what I want to...

Here is something close to what I was thinking. Of course removing the wheels and bolting it to the van just in case someone behind me thinks texting is more important than driving. Rubbermaid 773488 5-Drawer Mobile Work Center...

Sounds like you have mastered the art of packing [emoji1] I'm trying to decide if I should get the 2500 or the 3500 Sprinter. Do I really need the 3500? I really just have no idea. I do know I will be going with the 4x4 option as I plan on driving a lot in the snow. I'm big into snowboarding.

Very nice! Where did you get the roll up at? I was looking at Lowes and HD for some solid Rubber Made (or brand like it) containers. I'm talking about the good ones with the ball bearings on the drawers. Was hoping to find something that was well built but no luck. I assume yours is made out of...

Poll/Feedback: Roughly how much weight (payload) do you have in your vehicles?

You said you could of gotten away with a 1/2 ton van. What does your build look like? If I see yours I could compare it make to what I'm planning and get an idea if that will fit me. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Well I want a 12 volt refrigerator, induction stove top, fold down to full bed, covering the roof top with solar, lithium battery setup, sink, super small shower etc... Everything for a full timer person. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Understand. But you can buy them at different max load ratings. Max payloads being: 3083, 4049, 4342 and 5100 lbs. I'm trying to decide what vehicle to buy to make sure it covers my build. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Shopping for a new Sprinter Van. The option of how much weight (payload capacity) came up. I will be living in the van full time so it will have just about everything in it. Rough ideas of what my "max payload" will be once the build is done? I know there are a ton of variables. I just want to...

I have built a few cabinets in my past, so I got some skills. My problem is I don't have any tools now and I'm looking for a good place to do the build. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

:D lol...votes are in and Ikea cabinets are out! Thanks for all the feedback! :cool:
