Welcome 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.
The two websites below may help you meet your objectives. The first for considering a vehicle for your rig to travel in, and the second to help you navigate the road from home or while out there in safety, comfort, and convenience.
I own an E 350 Ford extended high top gasoline Van, but I would also consider a reasonable sized Step Van or a Shuttle Van. If I went with a Diesel I'd want to stay in the south during the colder months.
Do you have any ideas about what you would choose for a rig ?
