Yea, but I'm a city dweller so I want the stealth. However I do think I might try using that method next summer when I am living in the minivan again. If I were to be living mostly on BLM lands Id say that work just fine. However I work a retail job that pays me about 20.50 an hour so I want...

I'm sure I will get hate for this however... Most people that smell do not realize that they smell. In smaller towns in the southwest, my nose smelled the worst smelling humans I've ever smelled. Most of those times were times I was trapped inside a small town grocery store where staff and...

Focus on making your live more luxurious with cost effective investments. Many people here are too focused on saving every penny. While that is important belive me I'm nearly as cheap as the rest of them lol.. however always remember you want to make life COMFORTABLE! If your in a car you...

So I recently put 4 100 watt pannels on my minivan and now 80% of the entire roof is just pannels. I do have two different spaces that is about 2-3 inches between pannels (pannels are attached to steel angle then mounted to the roof rails via U bolt so this gap was needed) Plus I have some...

oh no no no no.. I tried something like that before called the hot logic. Took 4 hours to cook an egg dish plus I had to stir it several times during as well. Anything heating would have to been NOT frozen to begin with as that would take all day! haha. I would suggest a RoadPro at least it's...

There is a satisfaction and power to being able to be content with less. I've done that before and in many other areas of my life do that still today. I've tried to live without coffee, I've lived without a fridge however I always end up ending progressing to bad eating habbits and over...

No no.. be spending Jan and Feb. in Texas along the gulf cost where it's warmer than up north.. During the off season the tourists would be much less than the busy gulf coast season so I think I might not have it all to myself but be far less crowds so that might be nice.

It's a balancing act trying to make a minivan work vs. a full size. For me at least. However that space it takes up has an even greater cost. Not to mention the safety risks. I seen a youtuber recently have a leak in his LP tank and he was left stranded waiting for it to all empty out and...

I'm going for 3 power systems. 1. is the main one 300 watts pannels mounted on the roof (3x100 watt renogy pannels on the roof) That goes into my deep cycle 200ah battery that powers my Alpicool G22 23Qt. fridge which I am looking to switch over to a freezer after the summer. Had it for a few...

I work overnights right now in an apartment but will be switching to the minivan come this fall and winter then will head up to the Dakotas or Nebraska or Montania for the summer then will take off to the Gulf Coast for Jan & Feb and half of march (I want to stay during Nov & Dec. since it's...

and they do.. the blue seal battery terminal fuse box connects directly from the battery goes to the fuse then the wires connect from there to the outlet. They all have a 15amp fuse for EACH outlet right now I've 3 of the 4 in use and the 4th sits empty as someday I might expand to a 4th...

Question. I bought two Anker portable chargers back in 2020 from Amazon and I been using them over the years and they both expanded from the inside and racked the cases.. they are sealed units so I can't just open them to check to see if they look fine inside but are they still safe to use...

Recently started upgrading my 200 watt system into a 400 watt system. I have had a Blue Sea Systems 5023 ST Blade Battery Terminal Fuse Block 4 Circuit that fused the system from the battery to the 12V outlets I used to draw power out of the system. I am looking to install fuse into the...

A broken window can easily be replaced. However there is much leg work that needs to happen to GET to JUST that point. Let me explain. I have 400 watts of solar and a 200ah battery that weights some 300lbs and you'd have to take out the bedframe to get it.. which to get the bed frame out you...

Going back to van life soon. Everything I own can fit inside my minivan. However... I feel like im still stuck on clutter and chaotic mess. I don't think I can "live out of a backpack" however I feel I should be easily able to live out of the back of my minivan again and live out of a...

Because it's a snuggy like blanket with holes so I can eat my lunch and be warmer. I'm looking to eventually move back into my minivan full time so investing and experimenting now is important so when I'm ready I will be more comfortable with a wider variety of temps. I'm looking to stay in one...

Now that I'm looking on Amazon.. I see a "Sherpa wearable blanket" that has a zipper that zips up into a pillow! which would mean it functions during warm days as a soft pillow. Also I think a seat cover like maybe a sheep skin for around 50-70 bucks for one would sure be nice to keep my bum...

I've always just gone with blankets from Ikea but they can be quite puffie and seem to occupy so much space which is a limited asset in my minivan.. At work I always go out to my minivan during lunch and eat and take a nap but often will wake up shivering and cold. I just chill in the front...

I want to eat eggs more often but I often don't want to stress about the dreaded egg pan needing to be scrubbed 1/2 an hour and it to only STILL be 90% clean before I give up and leave it dirty for a week until I finally get it clean another week later and then another week later before I am...

I'm not gluing aluminum solar panels to my roof. I want to maintain the air barrier to help them cool To clarify MY ISSUE IS the roof rails do not extend over the entire roof meaning that half of the panels are going to "float" in the front due to not being under the roof rail to hold them up...
