    Wish I still had my 40 acres in Marion county. Paid $500 an acre for that. Ex-wife number two got it.

    No More 122 degree Inferno - Almost

    My van looked like a major skin cancer when I got it. Peeling gray paint and surface rust. It's now painted with white Behr reflective roof paint which I rolled on. The temp difference is amazing. The paint job is good from afar but far from good.

    For Dodge van fans: Japanese van racing

    Haven't logged any miles to speak of either way. I knew about the tippy issue and saw how far in my rear tires were so I spent the money. If nothing else the rear tires look more like I think they should.

    pepper spray?

    I can't answer your question but- For your vehicle I would recommend a can of the wasp and hornet spray that shoots 20 feet. Not considered a weapon but I imagine a face shot of that stuff would slow a person down.

    For Dodge van fans: Japanese van racing

    leslymill I have the same van as you do. I bought a pair of 2 inch wide spacers for the rear wheels from Rough Country. The spacers go between the rear wheels and the brake drums. When installed the rear track is four inches wider. Notice how far in your rear wheels are? With the spacers mine...

    Committed or trying it out?

    My van is nearly done and I will leave when the weather cools off. For me it's probably more a means to an end. I would like to move to Mexico and wanted a vehicle to explore with. I can't see myself living full time in this van. I would have to have something I can stand in. Plus I have a...

    Van gvw class, question

    Can't remember where the guy with the Astro was posting, maybe facebook. He'd been in the van for years and the pics looked like it. That thing was stuffed full! I think he hauled a motorcycle too. Never mentioned any problems with weight although I think he did use add a leaf springs in the...

    Eating for extreme temperatures

    Peppers might work in a dry heat but so would a spray bottle of water. Alcohol does lower body temperature but I think it's probably not the best answer, much as I loves me beer. When I was 17 I lowered my body temp by drinking copious quantities of beer. Sadly I passed out only half in my...
