I’ll geek out more below on why and how if you’re interested. ⁣ ⁣ Ain’t gonna lie it does seems like a wild time in the world to take on a $550/mo car payment. Trust me it felt funny buying a new van but grabbing 0% APR did make it easier. And the way I figure is a man still needs somewhere to live while he builds a house. So instead of paying for an apartment while I’m documenting the Montana house build I’ll live and travel in the red van. I had considered grabbing a cheap RV trailer but in the end I only wanna buy things I truly enjoy and love. This red van will easily become the long term adventure mobile. ⁣ ⁣ The biggest story I wanna share is you don’t need a perfectly outfitted $150,000 van to get out there and live it. You can get on Youtube and spend countless hours watching to only feel overwhelmed. It would be real easy to feel like if ya ain’t got a perfectly kitted tiny house on wheels with a subway tile backsplash and built in hot water you can’t do it. Those systems are neat and luxurious but you don’t *need* them. For the next few months I’m gonna be living out of my van full time starting only this $50 plywood platform I built in 2 hours. ⁣ ⁣ Over time I’ll build it out more but this is the beginning, the spot to start. I wanna go out there and live the one precious life we get instead of having paralysis from other folks having fancier rigs. ⁣ Why I got an Transit AWD instead of a Sprinter 4x4 or ProMaster feels important so here’s my quick run down. In some sense none are the wrong choices. This is just my take and reasoning, your mileage will vary. ⁣ ⁣ I ran out of caption space so check my comment below on why ✨」5月10日 23時08分
