    Changed vehicles mid-conversion

    It's me again, lol. We had to change vehicles mid conversion since the Ford F-150 had something go bad in it and it ended up with irreparable frame damage. We were blessed that the dealer let us trade-in title for title for a new, nicer, vehicle. The only thing is, it's a Chevy Venture mini...

    Ford E-150 Conversion Plans and Questions

    Thanks all! Our back seat has nothing underneath it and literally works exactly like a futon. Maybe it was replaced by the previous owner? I know they were planning on turning it into an RV but decided they didn't want to live that way. I am going to try and post pictures so you all can see it...

    Ford E-150 Conversion Plans and Questions

    Thanks all. My original thought was to strip everything out and start configuring it the way I want. The husband, however, is wanting to get done right now and get started so am trying to find ways to please both of us. As far as the flooring, I didn't really think of the need to check for...

    Ford E-150 Conversion Plans and Questions

    Recently purchased a Ford E-150 passenger van. It is as they say "fully loaded." There is not a whole lot of build that will need to be done for us to get started dwelling. The van floor is already carpeted, but it is in horrible condition, pretty sure that there is no way I can get it clean...

    Forced onto the road..but where?

    Hi Pom! I am new to this also, although I am blessed enough to have some time to get things set up the way we want them. However, I second the suggestion to check out freecampsites.net. I found an amazing area in Ohio where we live that are actual camp grounds which are free, and in the one of...

    Thanks for the wonderful welcome! We have purchased a Ford E-150 passenger van with a Triton V-8 engine. Judah was a truck driver for 14 years and for the past 2 years I have traveled with him. So, to be honest, the van is already more space for us.

    Hi all! My husband and I are new to this forum, but have been considering the mobile lifestyle for a while. We have looked at everything from RV's to tents and have even looked into converting a box truck. Today, we finally settled on and bought a van. Our journey into van dwelling has begun...

    New to mobile living

    I don't drive the truck, I am just a rider, so we are restricted to my husband's driving hours. The truck is permanently assigned to us, so we don't have to worry about sharing it with another driver. We have a regional job, so we get 34 hours of straight down time a week in addition to the 10...

    New to mobile living

    Hi! I have been wanting for several years to be mobile. It always made sense to me. At first, my husband and I looked into buying an RV. We were unable to do that for various reasons, one of them being my health. So those plans were put on hold. About 6 months ago, we started looking for a van...
