    ISO Beautiful MINIvan Conversion Inspiration

    There is no reason not to look at the professionals for inspiration. I think Sussex Campervans makes some very impressive little campers. They have quite a few videos and the below couple are just examples. I'm impressed with what they can do with a Nissan 200NV. Those things are nice but also...

    LS Series of Engines

    Thanks 4x4sporty...I didn't know that. Makes sense though.

    LS Series of Engines

    I know there are always a lot of questions about the best vehicle (vans in our case) manufactures and the various motors that are the most dependable. Makes sense since if you are reading this, odds are your van is probably very important to you. I consider myself a car guy and a shade tree...

    Minivan conversion

    Good luck ride4321 and have fun! This is the exact reason I love my minivan camper. I live in an apartment complex. They don't allow over night parking of RV's. They also don't allow you set up a tent in the parking lot nor on the grounds in general. So if I had a new RV or a tent I wanted to...

    Minivan conversion

    ride4321, I find your above response about the weight humorous! I built out a little minivan myself. I made a couch/bed combo with a ottoman type thing out of wood. Many people I showed it to were the same..."Man you better check the weight on that thing". I'm thinking...what I added weighs less...

    Sound like a good deal?

    I'm no expert by any means, but I think you could probably find a better value. It's an almost new van, but already has almost 100k miles? And they want $13.7 for it? The below link is an example of what I (my opinion here) think is not a bad deal. It's an 06 Ford 350. Not the biggest fan of...

    How do I keep windows from fogging up?

    Oh...I thought this was going to be another thread about sex in a van.

    If you could have one of these..

    The peanut looks like it has more room, however I don't like peanuts that much. But I do like hotdogs! But I think either one would be cool. I could imagine it would be kinda hard to stealth camp in one though.

    WOOHOO! I'm Divorced!

    My marriage failed from a philosophy (or old saying) that came true in my case...A man marries a woman hoping she won't change, a woman marries a man hoping he will. She changed and I didn't.

    (sigh) Walmart scammers are a PITA

    I haven't been approached with that one, so thanks for the heads up (not like I would have done it anyway). But if it is stolen, what is their gain? You getting arrested? But I already have a plan if it does happen to me. I'm going to accept their offer, take what they have, throw it in a trash...

    My van camper

    Enjoy following your thread and updates Campor99. Wish I knew you were in my hood (San Antonio). Hope you enjoyed the area. Weather has been a bit hot for this time of year, but as I'm typing this we had a decent cold front move through. The Texas Hill Country holds a lot of beautiful scenery.

    Window Coverings

    I'll just throw out some of my ideas for fun. Actually planning on making my black out window covers this weekend. I live in Texas so I'm not that worried about any insulation factors. In addition I am cheap and really enjoy repurposing things into other things I need/want. First I was going to...

    Still searching for a van - scams everywhere!

    Yeah there are a lot of scammers out there, but simple tips may help. It won't avoid them all, but common sense plays a big factor in it too. Main thing I noticed, if they have their contact email or phone information imbedded in the picture, odds are it's a scammer (like example below). They do...

    Man too bad the music cut off. That is one of my favorite Zeppelin songs!

    Van living toys

    Never heard of the cartoon before, but I gotta admit...I think it is as cute as hell! From the pics it looks like he has his van set up like many other van dwellers. Makes me want to buy the toy and start watching the cartoon. Wonder if he gives a tour of his van in an episode?

    Pontiac Stinger cool concepts.

    I think it is actually pretty cool. I can't wait to see what the new VW micro buses will eventually be like when they are finally out for production.

    Assategue Island Maryland Camping with the wild ponies

    Not sure if I'm doing it wrong or if I don't have enough posts, but I can't seem to quote. But anyway... "I wish we would not use the term "Wild Horse", they are not wild horses they are "Feral Horses". highdesertranger" That would totally ruin The Rolling Stones song! Feral horses (versus...

    Privacy Pop bed tent

    I have always thought a mosquito net bed cover thingy would work good. Especially stealth camping (no window screens). I haven't done it yet, but I figured I could mount one from the roof over the bed. Then at night just use it as intended and no need to make or use window screens. Here is an...

    minivan reflectix

    This video may have the answer you are looking for. Pretty clever idea actually... mod edit to add description. Video is 8+ minutes of a couples privacy solution of putting their window inserts into cloth sleeves and holding them in place with thin metal strips. Please add descriptions to...
