New Kid In Town

[Wanderlust1991]

Hi everyone, I'm Andrew!

I was recommended to this site from a friend. I'm eager to get to know others who travel!

I'm 27, debt free and reside in Le Claire, Iowa. I've traveled here and there. Two years ago my cousin and I spent two weeks in the Idaho mountains backpacking!

In October 2017 I bought a 1996 Dodge Ram Van 2500 for 1,000 scooby snacks. 65,000 miles and virtually rust free. All original interior, almost looks new it was in that great of condition. I am converting it into a camper van. I am giving myself until winter of 2019 to finish. I am completely gutting the inside, rebuilding from scratch, rebuilding the motor, transmission, rear axle and a new paint job. I'm here to share my story, listen to yours and make some friends along the way! I attempted to attach a photo of the van but the file size is too large. I'll figure something out

Welcome, Andrew! I'm stoked to hear that Scooby snacks are still considered a useful currency!

Sounds like a better deal than mine. I just got a 1999 Dodge Ram B3500 15 passenger conversion with 93,000.  Defintely get up some photos and even make some videos for You Tube. I love to watch this stuff.
