Hi
I’m Matt, a burnt out, thoroughly disillusioned 40 something bloke!
Got a bit of cash from work now my jobs been eaten by Covid 19… and I’m looking to fulltime it in a van!
I never new finding the right van could be so hard. I’m thinking of just building one myself.
2 problems. I have no experience with electrics solar etc.
Also I have nowhere to actually do the building!
Thought I’d say hello anyway
Avoid purchasing most home built camper vans. The quality & safety are questionable.
Check your local classifieds and compare prices between vans and factory camper vans or motorhomes. Many older factory campers are in excellent shape with low miles and a cheap price tag. They are also move in ready. The best time to start saving money is with your initial purchase.
If building your own, you can save a ton of time & money by starting with a passenger van with already finished interior. You can simply remove the extra rear seats, and move your new camping setup in.
Moving your new interior in and securing it is frequently a better option than actually building it in.
Good Luck & keep us posted!
Cheers!
