    Wave 3 shutting down

    Sitting hear outside Zion freezing my a$$ off cause my heater shut down. Just filled the tank before leaving St. George and am some what at a loss to know the reason for this.  Are there any kindred spirits that have had this happen and what was their fix ? My first impulse when the sun comes up...

    Border patrol and canabis

    It was pretty much "outta the car...got any weapons....sit over there..When it was over they got a heaping helping of righteous indignation. I felt we were being singled out cuz we were in a van conversion not a class a pusher which really piised me off and I let em know about it. Oh well guess...

    Border patrol and canabis

    Be careful when carrying legal canabis in Ca. and transiting to Az. The dog hit on a scent and we were pulled in and tossed at the Blythe border  patrol check point where we were informed that as a detainee at a federal facility that state law was inconsequential and we were in violation yet...

    02 Ford E150 van seat swivel

    Thanks Pete. I was under there yesterday and was curious about all the infrastructure in the way i.e. frame, exhaust etc. and wondered as to the feasibility of this outside a body shop.

    Storage box for swing away cargo carrier

    I have a swing out hitch rack on my E150 and agonized over the same issue. I bought a cedar chest off CL for $30 that fit perfectly in the rack rails. The next agony was drilling a couple holes in the bottom of a perfectly gorgeous cedar chest to run bolts through the expanded metal rack. Then I...

    02 Ford E150 van seat swivel

    Ya this one seems pretty basic. Bought it off a neighbor for $25 has universal stamped on it. Front bolt pattern matches to the floor but.will need some drilling for the rear. Not sure how seat bolt pattern matches up. Can't move the seat back cause of the side entry. Gonna be a project but...

    Learning curve to drive van?

    Little 2" convex mirrors in the.lower outside corner of the mirrors helps cover blind spots and could save a passing bikers life. Might want to install a back up camera too. They're pretty affordable any more. Have a friend who mounted one just above the trailer hitch.

    Thnx again for all this info. I guess my curiosity would lie in wondering if mobility would be a factor being able to bounce around location to location and if per diem is part of the pkg.
