This is a great story Headache. And thanks for bumping it up Keebler!

I have a handful of unique ideas gathered here. I'd love to hear more. Following!

Oh, and if there's a particular page you see that needs help, you can just message me here with suggested changes and I can make them.

I have the beginnings of a nomad wiki page about step vans and want to know what I'm missing or could improve on. If you have step-van-specific resources you've discovered that would be especially helpful. Lists of available models, box dimensions, things to watch out for when choosing and...

Hi, I'm pretty new here but not very new to van life. I'm in the process of putting together a wiki for van life with everything I've learned over the years. It's a work in progress of course, so if you visit it you'll probably bump into some unfinished pages here and there. I do plan to be a...
