I was addressing box trucks (or any other vehicle with a commercial VIN) with a commercial VIN. Noted you failed to disclose if you informed your insurance company of your plans to live in it. I addressed insurance fraud. I assume Ambo stands for an ambulance? An ambulance is not a motorhome...

I went another route. I bought a hurricane-damaged class-C with the intention of demolishing the coach. Took me 3 days. I will now install a commercial industry cargo box with a roll-up door that will likely cost me ~$8k for good quality. I then build it out to my custom specs. The 1999 Ford...

If you live in it and did not disclose this to the insurance company at the time prior to being offered a policy you have committed fraud invalidating the contract in case of a claim.

Look into marine units, they are designed to operate not being stable. Yes, they are significantly more expensive but can also be long-lasting. My plan is a 12vdc chest freezer, with frozen food removed to a cooler box whereby as it thaws it maintains the cooler ambient temp @~50F. I have been...

I have a friction rowing machine. I love treadmills but they take up too much room in my rig. My rig: 16'ft cab-over box truck with GMC Sonoma small truck toad. The plan is to wheel the rowing machine out at camp and set it on the ground in inclement weather. Hard cardio every day. Its work...

Power-assisted convection with the fan-mounted exterior to the interior is the answer. The inside uppermost area needs only an exit air path, an exit fan is an option but creates sound and uses energy. Simply pumping in cooler air will cause the warmer air to exit given a pathway. Options are...

So often people these days only look at issues from a single perspective. We have to live together. Everybody needs\gets a seat at the table and deserves to be heard. In the articles I read, there are no plans to prosecute people using this new law. Of course, that does not preclude arrest. Some...

I think that this is a fallback law intended to give cover when dealing with those problem people (aka Karens & Kens) that insist they have a right to do as they please regardless of how it affects others because ...'freedom'. If you want to push the envelope you might get stamped (not to be...

Rule of Thumb: if you can't leave it the way you found it or better, don't go, stay away. I nearly always try to remove something that does not belong that I did not contribute. It only takes a second and feels good to do your tiny part. Doesn't have to be just the wilderness either, it can be...

Sounds like conspiracy theory nonsense.

Follow your brain. Your heart does not think.

"Crime is bad" Crime is always bad other than for criminals that are rewarded. "and getting worse. you have to go back to 1978 to find higher crime rates." Given the US population increases yearly that claim has little-no value. You can always spot someone misusing statistics to bolster their...

The population is nearly always increasing therefore rates for many-most measurable factors naturally increase. Without using per-captia to compare it's pointless at best and disingenuine at worst to compare rates to past periods and locations. #45 did\does this all the time and certain media...

The best vehicle anti-theft device IMO is to install a hardened steel eyebolt through the cab floor with an attachable square hardened steel chain ~1m that is locked to the steering wheel. Personally, I prefer it permanently attached to the eye thus only one padlock is required. Its heavyweight...

Have you invested in a tranny transmission temp. gauge? If not, why?

I have read repeatedly that standing water in a tank should be used in ~4 days. Recirculating through filters with U\V can likely extend this but from what I have read not more than an additional ~10 days. I think some chemicals need to be added with the maintenance circulation to get a...

Have you considered sheet rubber? 1/8-1/4" ?

A counterweight with a pulley holding the drawer closed would be interesting. This could not be used for drawers close to the floor, a design parameter. A spring could also be utilized. I like the idea of drawers that sit down in a notch and cannot be opened until lifted up. The contents act to...

Firewood not required. Google Jeep catches fire. Not specific to a Jeep btw....anytime you park a hot vehicle over dry vegetation you should be aware you may ignite a fire. Fire extinguishers should be handy, perhaps even a fire blanket. Personally, if you cause a fire you should be held...

You can try bluffing by claiming to have systems you don't (live sat. upstreaming to HD save) they may not know until they try to breach and even then may not be sure. They attack the weakest link.
