Welcome Barbara to the CRVL forums! To help you learn the ins and outs of these forums, this "Tips, Tricks and Rules" post lists some helpful information to get you started.

Most of our rules boil down to two simple over-riding principles: 1) What you post should provide good information (like your introductory post), and 2) Any response to someone else's post should make them feel glad they are part of this forum community.

We look forward to hearing more from you.

Welcome to the forums. People in videos will tell you about all the good things and overlook all the negatives. I would suggest try camping in the vehicle that you now have. See if sleeping in a seat will work. Figuring out how to use the bathroom in the rain. Many do live in a Prius and are happy, but I would suggest try before you buy.

Welcome Barbara!  I agree with Danny:
I wish I was getting Prius gas mileage, but I love the space I have in my van and being able to stand up.

For boondocking or stealth parking, you will find that being able to move between the front and the back is something you need. I suggest taking out the back window and installing a boot there, or installing an electric opening back window. 

If you love 4X4 roads and have a good truck, just travel in that. I did a season camp hosting out of my pickup and it had its moments.
