    subaru update - power and space

    I am definitely all for the research. Doing research played a major role in my degree so at least that is serving a purpose even if my degree isn't at this time (whomp whomp). Electrical is just so intimidating when you have literally no knowledge beyond the basic that everyone knows.

    subaru update - power and space

    I appreciate the thought! I actually did the bungee to keep everything on the bed while I was driving with the windows down, but have since taken those back screws out and changed the front screws to be eye hooks. So that was an excellent idea! I just don't have a more recent photo, I had to...

    subaru update - power and space

    I actually put a platform on top of my folded back seat because it was at a slant when it was folded, so I have a small amount of storage space underneath (photo below of my bed). Just picked up a rooftop cargo carrier for the roof so I'll have an "attic." I think I'll do some sort of rigging...

    thanks for the share! I'll check it out but I'm not quite ready to plunge (financially) into solar quite yet.

    subaru update - power and space

    Hello! I am kitting out my Subaru to car camp for the foreseeable future. I had left for a couple of days about a month and a half ago, but had to return to my parents' place due to power constraints. I needed some sort of house power to work my online job but the external battery was not...

    absolute musts - essentials

    Hello friends! I am starting my adventure in my Subaru Legacy. I did a couple of days but my external battery for work purposes crapped out. I think it'll work for extremely basic power needs, but for now I'm back home until we get a deep cell battery installed for long term use. So since I'm...

    Youtubers you love

    I have, I was just hoping for something specific to look for so I wasn't just shouting into the YouTube void. Most of the results for "car camping" don't really involve living long term in a small space.  Also tried:  Van life #fakevanlife Prius camping Hotel prius Car living Subaru camping...

    Hello everyone! I am working to convert my Subaru Legacy into a car camper to live out of full time. I was wondering if any of you have any favorite youtubers you follow that live out of their car? I feel like the bulk of the people that are popular and youtube suggests to me are all in cargo...

    zero waste - minimalism

    Thank you! Yes, I'm pretty short (4'11") so I'm going to do the whole mini van thing. I knew it would be better for gas mileage and a bit better for the environment than a larger vehicle. I have no issues on space, haha. I know everyone has a different perspective, that's why I was asking, some...

    All I'm looking for is tips. Sounds like you've looked into downsizing before. Do you have any suggestions for my van life choice other than to not do it?

    zero waste - minimalism

    I realize your point, but I'm not going to be living in an rv. I'm going to be living in a van. I know that there are negative aspects, but I believe that it can make a difference regardless of your home base, whether that's a building or a vehicle. What I was looking for was ways that I could...

    zero waste - minimalism

    Hello everyone! I wasn't really sure where to post this since it encompasses so many different topics.  I was wondering if anyone has built out their vehicles with environmentalism in mind? I do have a small budget but I want to be as earth friendly as I can while I'm switching into van life...
