I don't usually post my videos here but I kind of thought it might be useful for people to see what happened to me. And before you lecture me, yes, I know it's my own damn fault, but very few people are ALWAYS on the alert. This is why you have to be. 

If this has been addressed before, I apologize. I didn't find it, so... How do people who use laptops deal with temperature issues? It is 32 degrees today and my MacBook lost almost half its charge just sitting overnight. I don't run the heat at night because I have a pretty warm bedding setup...

It seems like such a cruel joke sometimes that our greatest source of unconditional love (received and given) has a life span a fraction of our own.

I'm in the Northeast, and I imagine, being further from the equator, I am likely to collect less energy in full sun than people who are further south.  Is this correct? And if so, is there some resource I can turn to that would help me to arrive at a realistic expectation from the setup I have...

Can anyone tell me how much is safe (in terms of battery juice) to run off the starting battery overnight? I ask because I just read something from fridge maker ARB suggesting that a fridge can easily run for 24 hours and still leave you enough to start the vehicle, and I'm wondering if that's...

I wasn't sure if this was a good place to post this or not... Just saw a video about this organization:  https://vehiclesforchanges.com They build school bus homes for families. I wondered if the HOWA folks were familiar with them; they might be a great resource since they've been doing this...

I have a set of Brophy scissor steps I bought on Craigslist. They are perfect for the back door of my short bus.    According to the manufacturer they are intended to be mounted only when stationary and removed for travel, and the bracket they supply works for that. However, they're constantly...

I know there are a bunch of threads about GPS already (I searched), but they are either about stand-alone GPS units or they're old, and as we know technology changes fast.  I recently ran into some trouble using good old Google Maps and Apple Maps. I'm new to my tallish bus (9'6"), and without...

I was under the impression it was legal to sleep in your car in Los Angeles, but it turns out the City Council just extended a "temporary" ban in December. In checking out that info I came across this link: https://www.safeparkingla.org These people have lots all over the city, and you apply...

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I didn't see an insurance thread.  Here is my dilemma: I was just informed that I am being dropped by Progressive in 2 weeks, not for the reason I would have thought (I have a school bus conversion) but because I don't have PROOF OF...

I know, I know, these are misleading propaganda and all that. However... Why is everyone so completely down on this entire class of products? I sure would love to be able to get some advice from this bunch besides "don't get one" because there are several ways in which they appeal to me, and...

I'm looking at buying these refillable bottles...

I know there's no BLM land here, but I'm wondering if anyone ever meets up in the good old cold Northeast? I am in MA and would love to get together with anyone in New England or New York. I can't stray too far from my mother right now.

Hello! I'm Mary. My travel companion, seen in the picture in his Christmas deer hat, is Cowboy. The other picture is Buster.  About 6 months ago I bought Buster Lewis, a short school bus built by Lewis on a Ford E350 chassis, for conversion. It was a very uncertain period of my life, and I was...
