Husband and wife dipping our toes into the vanlife

[oliviapopemobile]

We are a newly married, but long time together, couple from North Carolina. We purchased our van,Olivia Pope, a 1992 Chevrolet G20 Gladiator edition, just last Wednesday. She is a beaut, with a brand new engine and in great shape. We just put tires and a front end alignment and have started our renovation of her. We plan on dipping our toe into vanlife with some weekend and week long trips.

For awhile I had a 90 Chevy G20, I fit on the seat/bed when it was folded out, that impressed the heck out of me!  Have a good time folks!

Welcome. Is that a skull lock knob? If so, that makes it fairly easy for a person to wiggle a cota hanger in and unlock your door. I would suggest the style that is smooth. Tougher to operate but very difficult for the bad guys. Enjoy your van.

Excellent point, we will probably replace the lock with something a bit more difficult for someone to grab on to.
