After everyone helped me with installing my fuse box, I put the bus-bar on for all my grounds as I was told to do.  I have my LED lights hooked up to it, and two 12v sockets.  Tonight, I made coffee with my Roadpro.  :D  I also put toggle switches because I was concerned about always plugging...

I haven't embraced it... but I've accepted it.   I'd seen all the videos on VanDwelling where the kitchen has to become the bedroom which has to become the study, etc etc.   After rebuilding twice, reorganizing multiple times... as a person who likes things in their places.... even if chaotic...

So, I went to ask how much a TuneUp would be for my van. Chevy Express 1500 and was told $610.   I noticed how ridiculously easy it would be to change the air filter myself....and did that.. now I'm wondering how safe and easy - realistically - it would be for me to do the fuel filter myself. ...

Hey Folks!!  Wow, last time I commented here I was still in a car. I HATED it.  Now, I've had the van for a few months. Have rebuilt two... or three times ::) Pretty  happy with my build now.  And have ventured into Electricity.  Came back to this forum because I'm really annoyed by the haters...

Hey all! I've been a member on the Vandwellers subred for a while and have really found CheapRVLiving a great source of information. I've taken the plunge and joined the forum!! I've been out for about a week now. I can't afford a van just yet, so I'm starting in my car. It's pretty nice sized...
