@ Max and Sophia of course... ;) Ooops! Oh well... Hrmmm... Hello Max! :D Yes, I do believe the Explorer is a little longer than the Escape. Not sure by how much, just know that If I remove or fold the back seat down, I can comfortably stretch out full length with a few inches extra. Now...

^ Thank you :heart:  //Solani

UPDATE EDIT WARNING... I tried to edit my post but it wasn't allowed due to the 15 minute rule, so. this is being posted but should belong at the end of my post above... "PS Edit warning... Do NOT attempt any form of pressure canning inside of an RV/Van/SUV/Car/whatever... When pressure...

^ Good Morning, Yes, I could to do a prepper food workshop at RTR. Won’t be this year though, as I’m still in the process of getting everything together and getting my Truck in compliance with US standards, since I’m coming back down to the States from Canada. Long story, won’t get into it...

Hi, Having been a "prepper" and off-grid for most of my life, this way of life will most definitely follow me even when living on the road. Having your own pantry of pressure cooked canned or dried meats, veggies, etc. etc. really makes life much easier, when you don't have much of a cooling...

Sophia, Yeah, my Explorer was my first choice, or rather, my only choice since that is what I already had. From watching many video/YouTube conversions about living out of an Explorer, I found that it would not only be possible but also something that could be quite comfortable, especially since...

Thank you Max+Sophia, :)  Great idea, hadn't thought of that possibility. Will search for an auto club that can point me in the right direction. And yes, the cost will play a major part in if this is going to be doable or not. I know that diesels can be very expensive to get work done on...

Yes, it is my intention to register the vehicle in the States. Would be the same if I'd bring my Ford Explorer to the States. In what specific context are you referring to with "refitted to U.S. standards. SAE gauges etc. SAE ie: Society of Automotive Engineers. I am aware of different...

Hello out there, This is my first post, except for my intro post on the newbie page. I have a question or, perhaps a few... My initial plans when I will be hitting the road was to use my 1998 Ford Explorer 4X4. It's a car I know, but still, I've never driven it longer distances and only had...

Hi Jack, So sorry to read about your fur baby crossing over. Yes, it is very difficult and heartbreaking when one of our family members pass on, regardless of if it's a human family member or a pet family member. Love is love and it hurts when they leave us. I've had many both cats and dogs...

Canine, So sorry to hear about your fur baby also crossing the rainbow bridge. My sweet baby boy Mio, a Great Pyrenese Mountain Dog crossed over too and way to early. Sad story, not getting into it now. Your tale/tail (pun intended) did however bring a big smile to my face, as Mio would never...

Kmellis, I really don't know exactly what to say or where this will take me, other than, I hear you, I feel you, I know from a certain extent what you are going through, as I'm in the boat beside yours. I took a leap of faith, or whatever one choses to call it and left my house and grown...

Hi Jill, Thank you, I'll definetely have to look into the South Dakota recidency rules/laws. Also need to figure out a balance between where I'm going to have my "permanent address" vs. insurance costs both car, health and other odds and ends. Last permanent address I had in the US (actually...

Hi Angie, Don’t worry, you’re not stepping on my toes or prying. I’m very open about “my issues” and have carried my “demons/PTSD” for as long as I can remember, it’s just part of who I am and why I react the way I do in various situations. I went down the professional psyche route for more...

Hello and thank you for the welcomes to the community, Forgive me for not replying sooner, even though I’ve read all the response’s I’ve received, as soon as I’ve been able to get online. Lots of chores around the homestead, as well as helping as much as I can, with the wild fire situation here...

Hello, I’m Solani, a name I was “gifted” quite a few years ago. I’m a Woman, 58 years young. I totally refuse to act my age, as I strongly believe age to only be a number. That doesn’t mean I don’t have the experience from every one of those years and more, it just means I’m young at heart and...
