    T-mobile and lack of overages

    Bob- Really I'm just looking for something to hold me over until I can jailbreak anyways. Then it's unlimited tethered data without a data plan cost.

    Serenity

    Sushi-Most of the places I stay allow it. The advantage to jumping around a small area so far has been getting to know the managers and owners which has let me be up front about what I'm doing and let me have a little more freedom. The car is unfortunately not flat towable so I've had to use a...

    Serenity

    I posted a pic or two of my conversion in a different thread but I wanted to repost the thread with a link to a video. I made the video for friends that couldn't understand how I was living but it does a good job of showing off the van as well. I had to learn how to do everything I did to the...

    T-mobile and lack of overages

    Heya, I've been looking into mobile internet recently and I've been reading here and other places about what the best options may be. Clearly I've been leaning towards Verizon as it gets the gold standard pretty much everywhere. Currently I have a mobile plan and tablet through spring however...

    Is it even possible to run this

    Thanks guys. As soon as I have a little cash Ill invest in the meter and see what I'm actually running at. Right now I'm not too worried as Ill spend most of the summer at sites with shore power. If I could only find a viable internet solution that doesn't involve a ridiculous phone plan or...

    Awesome. As soon as I get spare money Ill invest in it. Sitting at a campground right now has let me focus some of my cash into adding some conveniences and organization that I couldn't afford to get before. Thank everyone so much for the help and ideas.

    The Tires are brand new. Its not coming from them. I might be getting 10-12 on the highway. Either way, its terrible mileage when you don't make much money.

    Is it even possible to run this

    I have a gaming desktop that I actually installed into my van. Its a fullsize computer with a 500 watt power supply. It also has a 22inch lcd monitor. I use this desktop for photo editing as well as gaming. I've only used it recently with shore power but I'm curious if it's even possible to use...

    Any other Vegan Dwellers?

    I'm curious if anyone else in the community is a vegan and if so what kind of meals they are preparing themselves. With limited storage and refrigeration options I've ended up simplifying my diet down even further to foods that can be easily stored and don't require refrigeration. It kind of...

    The AEP land is a goal of mine to visit. I've actually been looking into companies in the Columbus area to work for which could make it a possibility sooner than later. Another thing I've considered is just picking up a .5 acre of land or less in the country and using that as a base. I could...

    I've tried running fuel cleaner through it and having it tuned up and looked at by a trusted mechanic. He said it was road worthy but couldn't see a reason why I wasn't getting better Mileage

    MY First Van Conversion

    Her name is Serenity. I went into the project with no knowledge of mechanical or construction and sub-par tools. Couple that with a very small budget and I'm pretty happy. She is a 95 Clubwagon with 89k miles. I got her for 900 bucks with a fully functioning handicapped lift in the back. Aside...

    Cyndi- Ill head out and talk to some farmers and see what they have to say about stuff. Not perfect but it will have to do until I can save up enough to buy a little half acre of land to pop the van on. House sitting and things like that really aren't my bag. It could be nice for sure, but even...

    sunnyslife- Yea, its a pretty decent rate. I would probably not move at all if it weren't for the 15 out of 30 day rule :-(. Considering that everything I've read so far puts prices in the 30+ a night range it's pretty awesome. I made an ad on craigslist asking for a small plot of wooded or...
