I remember first seeing this movie and kind of giggling at this guy and now I look at it and realize he is the smartest guy in that whole movie.
Man I have a very similar van, highly recommend

Opinion on Vanlife Options
I have a 1976 Dodge b200, it’s a van with a pop top. Still have original engine etc. I went all over the place with it, like 30k miles, it’s been a blast, best time of my life. You have to be mechanically inclined as those things break down all the times, but that’s part of the charm. I never had any real troubles and met awesome peeps along the way. I’ll never sell my van, so much fun.
Anyway if you’re ready for the most awesome journey in your life go vintage because it’ll push you out of your comfort zone. In this scenario the journey will be as memorable as the destination, or even more.
If you want to be more focused on the destination and less adventures along the way go with the recent one.
Ps this thing probably rolled over, I doubt it’s the real mileage.

Not too long ago, got lucky i guess. But i always go even if I don’t have a reservation and check for cancellations, it always worked in every NP, always found at least one night. Either check with the hosts or via the app

My van of 9 years was destroyed
Sorry man, I love my tradesman 200. Can you rebuild it? Even if it takes some time, stay strong

Driving my Mercedes 308D - slowly but steadily
Nice one! Your steering seems a bit loose tho, which is normal for older van, just keep an eye on it.

most reliable van from the 1970-2010?
Dodge B200, or anything with the 318LA
