    Airstream Insulating

    I think I'm moving into an airstream for the winter. In the cold. Temperatures will probably hover around zero for most of the winter. The airstream is free and I haven't seen it yet, but I imagine there'll be a need to replace the insulation. How big of a project is this? Do the inside...

    new van renovations

    The eagle creek pack it cubes (thanks triumph!!!) allowed me to go from cinder blocks and big rubbermaid totes to a much more minimalist design.  For the first time I can sit up in my bed - speaking of which, it was time to ditch that mattress after 5 or 6 years.  This was a $42...

    OMG look what I found!!

    They are these giant conversion/cutaway/sort of boxy but not really Chevy vans! &nbsp;The boxes are super light and it's just on a regular chassis. &nbsp;I think the boxes are about 10 feet. AND they're from the 2000's AND one of them only has 8k miles on it!!! They're being auctioned off and it...

    G20?
