Winter van dweller

[sandcastle]

Hi. I'm Linda. I used to full-time RV with my husband but he decided to move back to Minnesota. So now I spend the summers in our apartment with him and the winters in my van wherever I can find some warmth. I met some of you this week when I followed Bob's map to the current group campsite. What a friendly, helpful group of people you turned out to be. I look forward to meeting more of you in my travels.

Hi Linda, and welcome! I'm looking forward to meeting Bob and the others at RTR in a few weeks. I hope you'll be there too. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle">

Thanks. I belong to several groups meeting there that week so I'm not sure how many I'll be able to visit while there. I feel a need to go to the Sprinter Tech group first so they can help me understand the implications of using my alternator to charge my batteries since my vehicle manual seems to imply I shouldn't do that if not driving. Depending on what they say, I may not be able to stay more than a day or two. If I can safely recharge my batteries that way I hope to visit the RTR a bit.<br /><br />Linda

Hi Linda and Welcome,<br>I can help you with your Sprinter questions such as your batteries. Meet me over in the living in a van section of the forum. I have owned and/or lived in a Sprinter for 9 years now.<div id="nuan_ria_plugin"><object id="plugin0" style="position: absolute; z-index: 1000;" type="application/x-dgnria" height="0" width="0"><param name="tabId" value="ff-tab-1"><param name="counter" value="60"></object></div>

One advantage of designing your own layout after years of RVing in various rigs is you tend to be happy with your design. <img src="/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" align="absmiddle"><br><br>Linda
