If you ck out bob wells videos, you will see as low as 250/ month. There are lots out here at around 600/ month

A few things speaking from one engineer to another.  For using AGM , they like a higher voltage than fluid cells. They also will not last as long if used below their 50% level. You would probally need a dual alternator where you can make another regulator for it, the solar panels read about 19...

It might do the job and it might not. It's sll about air flow. The more air flow  you have the better. A cheap one may not produce the same airflow as the maxfan

I was looking at some of the van builds on utube and Lee in in LV had a 12 volt singer machine. Not sure  of the amps but  if you look at Bob's utube series, you'll see the interview with Lee

I'm  KC5ZQG, working on getting a trl to pull for a ham shack.

Always blm land, state parks and national parks. Ive seen that under a certain length go without notice.  I assure you a 30 footer or so in a residential neighborhood is going to be checked out especially with out of state plates.

14 day limit in quartzsite, ehrenburg is no limit, plus better shopping

There are 2 in Nebraska that have big rig parking whether in a truck/ trailer or a class A. One on each end of the state. One in York and one in Sydney. There is also parking at cabello at Sydney. All allow overnight. Wy also at most locations. Wy is not bad after a winter in AZ

I'll be leaving on dec 15 and heading to ehrenburg,  should be there by the 20th. I'll  have my guitar, also 2 amps (30 watts), fiddle and a small keyboard. I usually camp away from all the others so the ones that dont like music wont be offended. At RTR in Jan there will be an area for musicans.

You might want to look at the tear drop trailers as well.

As long as u use propane you will have condensation. Induction cooking seens to be catching on you have thevsolar for it.

Think I'm going to get one of the split A/C systems. I saw one that pulls 5 amps,

That 50 % rule is for the battery life. If you keep your batteries at 50% or higher they will last a long time. Lifeline says theirs will last 10 years. Like weight said you if you keep enough battery bank to fill your needs then you will always have enough There was one on a video had around...

Everyone heading to the desert save ne a spot,lol

You also need to allow for 50 % use of your batteries. Additionally solar panels are not 100% efficient therefore a 100 watt panel yields about 80  watts, rule of thumb is 20 % loss Anything that is used for heating or cooling is the power hogs. There are 12 volt coffee makers,  crock pots, etc...

I saw one on utube that someone made out of 4" pvc pipe. Looked neat, not sure how well it worked. There are lots of books out there on building your own wind turbine.

Get ready for a lot of hello knocks on your door. 90% of the vans are white, lol

Currently in se iowa,  temps have been great. 70's for highs and 40's at night. With heat warnings in the sw and West  coast, going to stick here for a while. Free fishing here anyways, lol

Plenty of cage free eggs in the mid west as well as organic fed chickens and beef. I buy my fish from the fish market thst sells fresh fish. It helps being on the banks of mississippi river.
