    New Car dweller

    As I sense from many, we creep up on the eventual move to independence and the full van lifestyle. I am still working too but we plan and prepare to get there. If the car is paid for and runs great, home run! Enjoy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    bored on Oregon coast

    I think a specific activity really can let no you to your locations and better an experience. I am a cyclist so I go places and ride, it really fills the day and I get to know the areas on a more personal level. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hello!!

    Paint the floor black and get white chalk. Draw it all out in plan and then set up cardboard. Well worth the mock up before going real world. I made major changes after that process. Good luck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Intermittent transmission limp mode

    The codes get more and more specific dependent on the complexity of the reader. A broad code gives you general direction, better readers more and more specific. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Intermittent transmission limp mode

    I got a $50 code reader for my Sprinter. It was spot on and I stuck to it and found the electrical short it pointed me to. The short was stopping the Wastegate valve from operating. I fixed the issue for free myself. Tiny pinhole in wire insulation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Like minded meet ups North East??

    Thinking NY, PA, Virginia’s I have a hard time finding this community in my area. Residing in NJ at this moment. Head South often to Virginia and planning a bigger and longer trip very soon. I have a home base and still working. Every chance I get I head out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks for having me!

    It all takes time. I found I went from lonely, to very much in the groove of the trip and things you need to do to get situated and function and at times, back to lonely. Activity is the key. I ride my bike for Lind periods of time. Great way to see area and the day has a rhythm, breakfast...

    How much solar do I need?

    I am by far no expert, I feel it’s more of battery capacity. In my case, 2- 100 watt panels, It’s about having more battery to store the energy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New to site. First year with the campervan
